No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right?

Chapter 85: What Is The Real Sword Dao

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Qingzhou Ancient City, the young man in black had a calm gaze in his eyes.

He was watching Su Changyu from 500 meters away.

500 meters ahead, Su Changyu couldn’t help but look at the young man in black.

His gaze was composed and indifferent, without any fear or surprise.

It was as if this young man in black was just an ordinary person.

In the eyes of the crowd, Su Changyu’s aura of an expert was fully showcased.

Even the people who came with him couldn’t help but be shocked at this moment, let alone the outsiders.

The one who was the most shocked was Xu Qiubai.

In fact, Xu Qiubai was not considered radical and was actually rather mild-mannered. Otherwise, he would not have befriended Li Yu.

However, Xu Qiubai always felt that there was something wrong with Su Changyu and Ye Ping.

Firstly, Ye Ping said that he had poor aptitude and that he had only comprehended the Four Thunder sword momentum and Heavenly River sword momentum in a few months.

That was too much of a showoff.

As for Su Changyu, although he had been staying silent throughout, he had been emanating the aura of an expert, thus making Xu Qiubai even more depressed.

‘You’re clearly only at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement realm, why must you act like an expert?’

Of course, the most important thing was that before Su Changyu and Ye Ping got on the carriage, Shuang’er and Ning’er were basically chatting with Xu Qiubai the entire time.

However, ever since Su Changyu and Ye Ping boarded the carriage, the two of them had been keeping their eyes fixed on Su Changyu and Ye Ping. Although they didn’t speak, any conscientious person would know that Shuang’er and Ning’er were more or less attracted to Ye Ping and Su Changyu.

That made Xu Qiubai feel really upset.

He was the esteemed young master of the Lijian Villa and an elite who was respected by many. Everywhere he went, he would be the center of attention.

However, he seemed inferior compared to Su Changyu.

Hence, Xu Qiubai was upset, bitter, and full of jealousy towards Su Changyu. However, he couldn’t voice it.

It was against the practices of a gentleman.

However, Xu Qiubai wavered.

It was because Su Changyu’s aura was real and not made up. It was completely natural and there was no way to fake it.

Hence, Xu Qiubai really did not dare to be certain if Su Changyu was really pretending or not.

Under the carriage, Su Changyu could not help but look ahead after hearing the words of the disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect.

He looked over and happened to make eye contact with the young man in black.

Su Changyu felt a little awkward.

He didn’t expect to be able to see him as soon as he raised his head.

That eye contact seemed rather provocative.

Su Changyu wanted to lower his head, but he couldn’t. If he did so or looked away, he would seem like a wimp.

He could stand anything except others bragging.

The two people stared at each other for a long time.

Not far away, the young man in black was a little curious.

He saw through Su Changyu’s cultivation realm at a glance.

He was at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement realm.

However, he never cared about the realm of cultivation. He was an avid swordsman who only cared about the Sword Dao. One’s attainments in the Sword Dao were not linked to cultivation.

However, to the young man in black’s bewilderment, Su Changyu’s sword intent was very weak, so much that he could not even sense it.

Theoretically speaking, Su Changyu’s attainments in the Sword Do were inferior, but the problem was that Su Changyu had the guts to make eye contact with him.

In fact, it was eye contact with sword momentum, and if the other party’s Sword Dao attainments were weaker than his own, they would look away uncontrollably.

However, Su Changyu didn’t look away and on the contrary, he had an aloof and indifferent gaze in his eyes, which shocked the young man in black.

If he was an ordinary Sword Dao cultivator, it would be impossible for him to have such an expression.

It was definitely impossible to fake it.

No one would have such a realistic pretense.

However, in the next moment, the young man in black suddenly had a change in expression as he sensed an extremely terrifying sword momentum that was as powerful as thunder and seemed to be able to traverse rivers.

In fact, the terrifying sword momentum was only a step away from being condensed into a sword intent.

The young man in black shifted his gaze onto a man.

That person was Ye Ping.

Ye Ping was only a few years older than the young man in black, but there was a terrifying sword momentum in his calm gaze.

It was very powerful!

It was very powerful!

No, it was extremely powerful.

He could sense that the sword momentum Ye Ping revealed was close to being condensed into a sword intent.

That was terrifying.

Sword momentum and sword intent were two completely different concepts.

Even the top Sword Dao expert in Qingzhou, Daoist Siji, had also condensed the Four Thunder sword intent at the age of 300.

It took him more than two hundred years to condense the Four Thunder sword intent.

However, the man in front of him, who looked like he was in his early twenties, gave him the illusion that he was only half a step away from condensing his sword intent.

He managed to come so far in just twenty-odd years. That was really horrifying.

Even though he had been cultivating the Sword Dao for 14 years since the age of three, he was still a step away from condensing the sword intent.

Hence, Ye Ping was really competent!

If he had to be pitted against Ye Ping, the young man in black felt that he would not have a great chance of winning.

However, the young man in black smiled in an instant.

Indeed, he smiled.

He couldn’t conceal the joy in his eyes.

He had come to Qingzhou not to clinch the first place or to provoke the Sword Dao cultivators of Qingzhou.

Instead, he was looking for a Sword Dao cultivator who was better than himself.

He wanted to sharpen his own Sword Dao.

Hence, it was necessary to find a Sword Dao cultivator who was stronger than him and only slightly older than him. Otherwise, it would be pointless.

However, after staying here for more than ten days, he did not meet any Sword Dao cultivator who was stronger than him.

He was disappointed, extremely disappointed.

However, he wasn’t disappointed now because he finally met the person he had been wanting to see.

‘Wait...’

All of a sudden, the young man in black suddenly thought of something.

He couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu again.

He had sensed Ye Ping’s sword momentum and knew that Ye Ping was indeed a young Sword Dao powerhouse.

However, the person who could be with a Sword Dao expert definitely wouldn’t be inferior.

However, he could not sense Su Changyu’s sword momentum.

That proved something.

Su Changyu’s attainment in the Sword Dao was so strong that he couldn’t sense it.

‘Yes, that’s right, that’s the only possibility.’

He reckoned that Su Changyu was the real powerhouse.

Otherwise, how could he have such an aura? How could he have dared to make eye contact?

As he figured everything out, the young man in black looked even more gleeful.

For a moment, the young man wanted to challenge Su Changyu more than Ye Ping.

“I am a nameless swordsman, I have come to Qingzhou to sharpen my Sword Dao, will you give me some guidance?”

The young man’s voice sounded.

It was the first time he spoke and initiated a battle.

All of a sudden, it caused an uproar.

“It seems that this person is really a peerless Sword Dao expert.”

“Yes, this young man in black has won more than 200 consecutive rounds and is indifferent to all the sects in Qingzhou. However, he’s so polite and respectful to this person in front of him. He should have already sensed the latter’s sword momentum.”

“Yes, that’s right, real Sword Dao experts will have a condensed sword momentum even if they do not attack. If two experts stand together, they’d be able to tell who’s stronger without a battle. It seems the young man in black has sensed the sword momentum.”

“I was just wondering why I sensed such a powerful sword momentum when this carriage appeared. So it was him.”

“Brother, please stop bragging, will you? Can you sense the sword momentum too?”

The crowd chatted continuously, and at this moment, many felt that Su Changyu was a supreme expert.

Not far away, Su Changyu was confused after hearing the young man in black’s challenge to battle.

‘Seriously? I just took one glance at you and you asked to fight?’

‘Can’t you see that I’m a loser who’s only at the fifth level of Qi Refinement?’

‘Can’t you sense the sword momentum of Ye Ping?’

‘You call me a Sword Dao expert?’

‘You chose to challenge me instead of Ye Ping?’

‘Are you picking me because I’m weaker?’

Su Changyu was a little confused.

With the young man in black’s challenge, Su Changyu was completely caught in a dilemma.

He would seem weak if he turned down the challenge.

‘Not to mention the surrounding cultivators, perhaps even Ye Ping would think I’m a loser.’

However, if he accepted it, he would be even more embarrassed.

Su Changyu would rather find a shady place to lie down, so that his corpse wouldn’t affect others.

Just when Su Changyu was about to refuse, Ye Ping’s voice suddenly sounded.

“Eldest Senior Brother, your swordsmanship is very good. You’d definitely win this fight easily, why don’t you let me take the challenge?”

He could tell that Su Changyu was not afraid of this person at all, but the reason for the delay in reply was also very simple.

It was because... the young man in black was not worthy.

That’s right.

‘Eldest Senior Brother is a peerless Sword Dao expert, how can he fight just anyone?’

Su Changyu would only fight against peerless experts.

If he won, it would seem like an easy victory, but if he lost... it was impossible for him to lose.

After figuring that out, Ye Ping took the initiative to battle him.

Hearing that Ye Ping was willing to fight on his behalf, Su Changyu was pleased.

‘Good idea.’

‘Good, that’s great.’

‘Leave the bragging to me.’

‘You shall do the fighting.’

‘There’s a clear division of tasks. Wonderful.’

Su Changyu was overjoyed.

He couldn’t help but agree.

‘Indeed, go and fight this battle, Ye Ping, take it as a training.’

He had long thought of what to say.

However, when he spoke, he said something else.

“It’s not a bad thing to be young and full of vigor, but it’s not good to be too outstanding either. Junior Brother, take a good look at what the real Sword Dao is.”

His voice sounded.

All of a sudden, there were waves.

Hence, no one expected it.

Su Changyu... really took the challenge.

Besides, those words were indeed shocking.

‘What is... the real Sword Dao?’

At this moment, tens of thousands of cultivators’ eyes glistened.

They were waiting for this big battle.

After all, Su Changyu’s words were indeed extremely pretentious.

After Su Changyu said those words, he was dumbfounded.
