Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven
#974 - Legend Road
Real Person Chengyuan said coldly: "We promised to give him a chance for assessment, so we shouldn't stop him halfway. Elder You is being unfair. Senior Brother Benlei, are you blind?"
"Chengyuan! Who are you calling blind!"
Real Person Benlei had a fiery temper and couldn't stand such words, so he immediately glared with raised eyebrows.
"It's true that Yue Wuxie's actions didn't comply with the rules, but he was forced to act. Those people stopped him, not allowing him to be assessed. Does that completely comply with the rules?"
"Hmph, Senior Brother Chengyuan, those people can only be considered to have exploited loopholes in the rules, but this Yue Wuxie violated the rules. Yet, you are still forcibly defending him!" Real Person Benlei sneered, his words laced with sarcasm: "Senior Brother Chengyuan, I think you're getting senile. Not only has your True Martial Peak lineage not produced any decent talent for thousands of years, but today you're personally defending such a hopeless body cultivator. You're about to become the laughingstock of our Azure Cloud!"
"Alas, body cultivators indeed have no future. Their realm limit is too low, and his path is basically at its end." Real Person Yunyin sighed, "Even if he can break through a few more realms, he will still be in the Saint Realm. Moreover, the cultivation progress of body cultivators becomes slower and slower, and the resources consumed far exceed that of true energy cultivators by several times. We have no reason to spend resources on him."
"Senior Brother Chengyuan, your actions today are truly perplexing to us." The head of Falling霞Peak, Real Person Luoxia, said lightly: "As the head, you must be responsible for the future of Azure Cloud. This Yue Wuxie's current strength looks good, but as time passes, he will soon be distanced from others in terms of realm. At that time, he will fall from being a top talent of his generation to the bottom."
"Senior Brother Chengyuan, don't be stubborn." Sect Leader Qingxuan sighed and said: "We don't know why you're protecting him so much, but in today's matter, he did violate the rules. How about this, I can make an exception and not punish him, just let him withdraw from the assessment and leave the mountain."
Jun Wuxie felt rather strange listening to the words of these heads. Everyone in Azure Cloud Cave Heaven believed that body cultivators were difficult to grow, had a very low limit, and would not be able to continue breaking through in the future, only stopping at the Saint Realm?
He felt like laughing.
"Your attitude is simply because he is a body cultivator! If his current combat power at the same level were replaced by someone who cultivates true energy, would you still be like this? I'm afraid you would be fighting to be his master!"
Real Person Chengyuan could understand the thoughts of the Sect Leader and other heads, but he always felt that this Yue Wuxie might be different from the body cultivators he had known before.
As for why he thought so, he couldn't say, it was just a subconscious feeling.
Therefore, he didn't want to give up that glimmer of hope.
If Yue Wuxie was truly different, then he would definitely be able to carry forward the True Martial Dao and make the True Martial lineage proud.
"That's right, it's because he is a body cultivator, a body cultivator with an extremely low realm limit."
Sect Leader Zhenren did not deny it, directly admitting this point.
"But I think he is different!"
Real Person Chengyuan had already made a decision in his heart, no matter what, he could not give up this glimmer of hope.
Real Person Benlei sneered: "Then Senior Brother Chengyuan, tell us how he is different. Just because he can beat a few more people of the same realm? Judging from his current strength, it's not impressive. Body cultivators are inherently stronger in the same realm."
"I don't want to talk nonsense. Tell me, what exactly needs to happen for him to continue the assessment and become a disciple of our Azure Cloud?"
Real Person Chengyuan's attitude was very firm.
This made the Sect Leader and the heads of several lineages look unhappy, and they all fell silent for a while.
They knew that Chengyuan was very serious this time. They could see determination and persistence in his eyes. If they forcibly refused, it might lead to a falling out. Internal discord would not be a good thing for Azure Cloud.
"Sect Leader Zhenren, since the head of True Martial Peak is so insistent, I think we should give that Yue Wuxie a chance." Elder You suggested.
Qingxuan Zhenren and the heads of several lineages all looked at him, without speaking, waiting for his next words.
They knew that Elder You couldn't suddenly change his attitude. Saying this must mean that he had thought of a countermeasure.
"Doesn't our Azure Cloud have a Path of Legends?" Elder You looked at Real Person Chengyuan with a smile, and said: "Since the head of True Martial said that Yue Wuxie is different, he should be able to pass the assessment of that Path of Legends."
Real Person Chengyuan was furious when he heard this, and said coldly: "Elder You, I only realized today that you are truly a despicable person!"
Elder You's facial muscles twitched twice after being scolded, but he didn't dare to retort, and could only pretend to greet him with a smile.
Naturally, he couldn't possibly want that Yue Wuxie to become a disciple of Azure Cloud.
That Yue Wuxie had previously contradicted him in public, completely disregarding him as an elder, even questioning his fairness.
Now that the head of True Martial Peak was protecting him, he was unable to deal with Yue Wuxie, which already made him feel very unwilling. How could he let him smoothly enter the sect?
"Yes, Elder You's suggestion is very good."
Real Person Yunyin nodded in agreement.
"I also agree. If that Yue Wuxie can pass the assessment of the Path of Legends, we will agree to him entering Azure Cloud, otherwise, he should leave."
Real Person Benlei said.
Real Person Zixia also nodded in agreement.
"I don't agree! Since ancient times, no one has been able to pass the assessment of the Path of Legends. You know better than anyone! Is Qin Yi considered amazingly talented? He is the most treasured disciple of Sect Leader, but did he ever pass the Path of Legends back then? Are you being too unfair to a disciple being assessed?"
Real Person Chengyuan was full of anger and flatly refused.
"Senior Brother Chengyuan, Qin Yi is a true energy cultivator with limitless potential. Now that he has stepped into the legendary realm, his talent is obvious to all. He is one of the few amazing talents in our Azure Cloud since ancient times. Yue Wuxie is a body cultivator with a dim future. The two of them cannot be compared. You should know that there is no comparability."
When the Sect Leader spoke of Qin Yi, his face was full of pride, but when he spoke of Jun Wuxie, he was very indifferent.
For him, one was a bright moon in the sky, and the other was just a firefly emitting a faint light on the ground, not comparable.
"Senior Brother Chengyuan." The Sect Leader sighed and said earnestly: "We have already made concessions and given Yue Wuxie a chance. Don't make it too difficult for us. If you want him to become a disciple of Azure Cloud, there is only one way to go, and that is to complete the assessment of the Path of Legends."
Real Person Benlei said seriously: "Sect Leader is right. Senior Brother Chengyuan, didn't you repeatedly say that he is different? Since he is different, he should have amazing abilities. If he can pass the Path of Legends, then I will publicly apologize to Senior Brother Chengyuan and admit that I was blind."
Real Person Chengyuan didn't speak, his face gloomy.
"Senior."
Jun Wuxie looked at Real Person Chengyuan's back, his heart warm.
This old man, who had only met him a few times, was helping him without reservation. He was quite touched.
Chengyuan turned around to look at him, sighing involuntarily in his heart.
The Sect Leader and the heads of several lineages unanimously insisted, and he had no choice now, unless he completely fell out with them.
Body cultivators, why is it so difficult, just because they are body cultivators.
This reminded him of his True Martial lineage, hasn't it been like this all these years?
Many people in Qingzhou have criticized the True Martial lineage, even the people in the sect are like this.
"Senior, thank you for everything you have done for me. Senior doesn't need to be embarrassed. It's just the Path of Legends, I'll go!"
After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he directly rushed out of the Cloud Sea Sword Formation area and landed in front of the Path of Legends where the True Martial Sword Formation was laid out.
"Hmph, you dare to闯the Path of Legends, overestimating yourself!"
Elder You and others sneered repeatedly. No one had ever passed that path since ancient times.
That wasn't just talk. What is the Path of Legends? As the name suggests, it must be someone in the Saint Realm who has stepped into the legendary realm to pass it.
"Yue Wuxie, no!"
Real Person Longyuan's face suddenly changed, and he followed him to the front of the Path of Legends, saying: "This path is dangerous. With your strength, it is impossible to pass. At most, you can only walk to the seventh bluestone step. If you forcibly go up, you will be severely injured by the sword formation!"
"Senior, I want to try. If I can't bear it, I will stop, I won't be brave, so please rest assured."
After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he stepped onto the steps of the Path of Legends under everyone's gaze.
Clang!
The moment his footsteps landed on the bluestone steps, the runes on the steps lit up, and the heavy swords on both sides rang out.
Above the steps, a heavy sword immediately evolved and suppressed downwards.
Heavy swords also appeared from all sides, as if invisible hands were holding these heavy swords and slashing towards him.
Jun Wuxie's face was calm, and the crimson crystal blood energy wrapped around the jade pendant on his chest. He carried his hands behind his back and stepped on the bluestone steps, allowing those heavy swords to slash at him.
Dang!
Dang!
A series of metallic tremors resounded through the eight wastelands, echoing endlessly in the sky and earth.
Those heavy swords slashed on him as if they were hitting gold and iron. Sparks splattered, and the clanging tremors were ear-piercing, but they couldn't shake him in the slightest.
"His physical body is so strong!"
Surprise appeared in the eyes of the heads of several lineages.
"This is just the beginning. The power of the True Martial Sword Formation is still very weak. He can naturally resist it with his physical body, but he will soon know why this Path of Legends is called a legend."
Real Person Yunyin said.
"An overestimating young man."
The head of Benlei Peak had a faint smile on his face. No one could pass that path.
Qingxuan Zhenren's face was calm. His proud disciple had tried it before, but he couldn't continue forward at the eighth bluestone platform. The higher he went, the stronger the sword formation's power became.
Qin Yi couldn't pass it when he was in the Saint Realm, let alone this body cultivator in front of him?
True Person Chengyuan stood below the Path of Legends, his eyes fixed on Jun Wuxie, who was ascending the stone steps. He was very nervous, and within that nervousness, there was even a hint of anticipation.
Although he knew it was impossible, for some reason, there was still a faint sense of expectation in his heart.
At this moment, in the Cloud Sea Sword Formation assessment, someone finally reached the top of the cliff first, becoming the first person to pass the assessment.
This person was Tang Shan.
His face was full of smiles, extremely smug, high-spirited, and radiant, as he looked down at the examinees who were still struggling in the sword formation.
Then, he looked at the figure ascending the stone steps on the Path of Legends, a sneer curling at the corner of his mouth: "Not knowing your own capabilities, you dare to venture onto the Path of Legends? I bet you'll collapse on the second bluestone step!"
He was in a good mood now, having secured first place in this assessment, and the ten bottles of Saint Spirit Hundred Herb Liquid were as good as in his hands.
Those resources would allow his realm to reach a higher level, perhaps even directly breaking through to the Great Perfection of the Minor Celestial Realm!
At this moment, countless eyes were focused on Jun Wuxie.
He ascended the steps one by one, and the higher he went, the more heavy swords evolved, and their power continued to increase.
The assessment here ended, and the top three were determined. The rest felt disappointed, but were soon attracted by the Path of Legends.
"Yue Wuxie, keep going!"
Zhou Meng wiped away sweat and shouted loudly.
"Keep going!"
Zhou Ling and Lin Sheng clenched their fists, watching him step upwards, and they became excited and thrilled as well.
That was the Path of Legends of Azure Cloud, a path that no one had been able to pass since ancient times!
At this moment, Jun Wuxie had already arrived at the first bluestone step.
He turned his head to look at True Person Chengyuan, who was standing below with a nervous and expectant face. His heart warmed, and he suddenly quickened his pace.
The sky and the surroundings were filled with heavy swords, bombarding him.
His left hand behind his back, he spread the fingers of his right hand, and with a flick of his palm, which was swirling with crimson, crystalline blood energy, he shattered all the heavy swords evolved from the sword formation in the air with lightning speed.
In fact, he didn't need to take action at all. The power of such a sword formation couldn't break his defense at all; it was far from enough.
However, he didn't want to appear too abnormal. Exposing too much strength was not a good thing.
In this way, he quickly arrived at the second bluestone platform and continued forward. The speed of his steps did not slow down in the slightest. No matter how the heavy swords bombarded him, they were all shattered by his palm.
The light of the runes on the Path of Legends was very bright, and the heavy swords bombarded with the True Martial Sword Intent permeating the air, causing all the examinees present to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.
That feeling was as if a mountain was pressing down on their hearts, giving them a sense of suffocation.
Even from this far away, the impact of the sword intent was so powerful, one could imagine the terrifying pressure one would have to endure within it.
The third bluestone platform.
The fourth bluestone platform.
The fifth bluestone platform.
...
The speed of Jun Wuxie's steps was always constant, and it did not slow down by half a point due to the increase in height and the great increase in the power of the sword formation.
At this point, shock appeared on the faces of the two elders.
Even the pupils of Sect Leader Qingxuan True Person and the Peak Masters of the various branches slightly contracted.
Now, that Yue Wuxie was heading towards the sixth bluestone platform.
Judging from his current state, he would definitely be able to ascend to the sixth platform, or even the seventh.
They naturally didn't believe that he could pass the Path of Legends, but even if he could only ascend to the seventh platform, it would be amazing enough.
You should know that Qin Yi only ascended to the eighth platform back then.
At that time, Qin Yi was at the peak of the Tenth Level of the Myriad World King!
If this Yue Wuxie could ascend to the seventh platform, then it would mean that he must have also stepped into the Myriad World King realm, and should be in the middle stage of the Myriad World King!
A Myriad World King in the middle stage of the Saint Realm was definitely a stunning talent.
It was just a pity that he was a body refiner. If he wasn't a body refiner, that would be great.
In the end, his future was dim. No matter how high his talent growth intensity was, it would only mean that his combat power at the same level was strong, but the realm upper limit of a body refiner was low, which made it meaningless.
Rumble!
A muffled roar came from the sixth bluestone platform on the Path of Legends.
That was the sound of Jun Wuxie's footsteps landing on it.
In the shocked eyes of countless people, he ascended to the sixth platform and continued towards the seventh platform.
Throughout the entire process, no matter how the terrifying sword formations attacked him, they were all shattered by his palms, which were swirling with crimson, crystalline blood energy.
That posture was incomparably powerful, making it so that the power of the sword formation could not touch him at all.
"Wow, Yue Wuxie is so strong!"
Zhou Meng held her chin in her hands, murmuring in shock.
"How is that possible? That guy can actually walk to such a position. How can he be so strong!"
Tang Shan, Zhao Xi, Xu Lin, Zhang Guan, and others all had gloomy faces.
Tang Shan was jealous, while Zhao Xi, Xu Lin, Zhang Guan, and others had both jealousy and hatred.
During the assessment, their jade plaques were shattered because of that Yue Wuxie, causing them to be eliminated prematurely.
Rumble!
Jun Wuxie stood on the seventh platform.
Upon reaching here, the power of the sword formation suddenly doubled!
Those heavy swords bombarded him like mountains, with great momentum and solidity. The fierce and unmatched sword intent permeated the air, making it difficult for the examinees to breathe, and sweat soaked their faces.
"Yue Wuxie, if you can't hold on, don't try to be brave!"
Below the Path of Legends, True Person Chengyuan's heart was beating fast. He was worried about him getting injured, and at the same time, he hoped that he could continue to ascend to a higher platform and become the first person to pass the Path of Legends!
