C235 The sword in his hand was only used for slaughter!
This was a martial art. Strictly speaking, it was a Heaven rank martial art.
This set of martial arts only consisted of one sword attack after another. Just this one sword strike alone was enough to rank among heaven rank talents, so much so that when Su Ye unleashed it, its power had already surpassed the scope of heaven rank martial arts, and could even contend against Royal Grade martial arts!
Thus, it could be seen how extraordinary and powerful this martial art was.
But why was one strike after another so powerful?
The reason lay in the word 'asked'!
It was said that this martial art was created by a genius disciple of the Qing-Yun Sect a thousand years ago. The name of this disciple was Ye Yan City.
When Ye Yan City first entered the Qing-Yun Sect, he was like the current Chang Lihen, showing a high cultivation talent, especially for sword skills that were rarely seen in a hundred years. The speed and efficiency of his swordsmanship was at least ten times faster than his cultivation level.
As a result, when he received the favor of Qing-Yun Sect's Sect Leader and many other Sect Elders, he decided to nurture Ye Yan City well.
However, this person's personality in Ye Yan City was extremely eccentric. Ever since he entered Qing-Yun Sect, he had never taken the initiative to talk to anyone. Even when other people took the initiative to talk to him, the total number of replies didn't exceed ten.
Ye Yan City seemed to be uninterested in everything. In his life, the most important thing was to practice the sword.
No one would have expected that such a person, would suddenly rebel out of Qing-Yun Sect when the Qing-Yun Sect's Sect Master was already determined to take him in as a disciple. It could be said that he had ruthlessly slapped Qing-Yun Sect's face, to the point where even the Qing-Yun Sect's Sect Master was unable to step down from the stage.
Su Ye did not know why Ye Yan City rebelled against the Qing-Yun Sect. A thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye, and to the Qing-Yun Sect, it had always been a scandal.
Su Ye only knew that because Ye Yan City's rebellion had angered the higher ups of Qing-Yun Sect, they decided to kill Ye Yan City.
Rebellion was the number one taboo of the sect, and especially the rebellion of geniuses, which would make people even angrier. The rebellion of a talented genius was not only a slap in the face, but also a threat to the sect in the future. No matter what sect it was, when faced with a talented genius rebellion, they would only have one choice: kill him and eliminate him.
But no one would have thought that the Qing-Yun Sect would actually fail to send a Divine Secret Realm Ranker to kill Ye Yan Cheng who was only at the seventh level of the Transcending Mortality Stage.
The only thing he had gained from this was a sword art that Ye Yan City created – the Heaven Seeking Sword!
This martial art was ranked as a heaven-rank martial art with only one sword move and one sword move. It was said that Ye Yan City had created this city on the spur of the moment, in front of the Qing-Yun Sect Divine Secret Realm experts who were chasing after him.
It was said that he had used this to repay Qing-Yun Sect for teaching him martial arts for two years. He had created a Heaven rank martial art to sever karma.
From then on, Ye Yan City was nowhere to be seen.
The "Heaven Seeking Sword" that was brought back by the Divine Secret Realm expert chasing after Ye Yan City was also treated as a humiliation to the entire Qing-Yun Sect, something that had not been brought out for hundreds of years.
Only three hundred years ago, when the Elders of the Zong Clan browsed through the 'Heaven's Sword Art', did they realize that this sword art contained an extraordinary profoundness.
Therefore, they couldn't bear to see their sect's martial art be buried in the dust like this, so they suggested that the sect place this sword art in the inner sect's Scripture Pavilion for the inner sect disciples to choose to learn.
The sect felt that the situation in Ye Yan City had changed, so they agreed and placed Wentian's sword in the inner sect's Scripture Pavilion.
Unfortunately, although the Heaven Seeking Sword might have been unsealed, only one person in many years had succeeded in learning this technique. The other losers would not be able to endure the proud and aloof mentality of their hearts. If their minds were damaged and their wills were destroyed, then they would become lunatics.
The only person who succeeded did not have a good ending as well. It was all because of the successful cultivation of the Heaven Seeking Sword Art.
It was akin to a lowly commoner pulling out their sword and angrily asking an overbearing overlord. Once they became famous, their fame would spread far and wide, and once they lost, they would have to endure the wrath of an overlord.
When training in the Heaven Seeking Sword Art, the first thing one needed was a bit of pride that came from the depths of one's bones. If one did not have this pride, how would they dare to cultivate the Heaven Seeking Sword Art? Secondly, he needed a solid foundation in martial arts. Without knowledge and foundation, how could Qin Wentian possibly live up to his expectations? How could the Heavens be so easily questioned?
The only person who managed to cultivate Wentian's sword was someone who had barely managed to cultivate the Heaven Seeking Sword Intent due to his insufficient reserves, but was unable to withstand a kind of reverse pressure that originated from heaven and earth. Finally, his soul was shattered by the invisible might of the heavens in front of all the Qing-Yun Sect disciples in the sect competition, and he died.
From then on, the sword strike of Wentian became a taboo for the disciples of Qing-Yun Sect.
However, people all have their own curiosity. Being able to become a cultivator, one would more or less have some pride, believing that one is not inferior to others. I can do what others can, but I can also do what others can't.
There were still many arrogant geniuses who had silently come into contact with the Heaven Seeking Sword, but without exception, during their cultivation, they all discovered that they were unable to withstand the reverse pressure that originated from the sky, and were forced to give up. Some of them lasted a little longer, and even paced back and forth before the gates of hell.
Amongst them were the Heavenly Punishment Elder, Fu Zhongxuan and the rest of the current Qing-Yun Sect's Divine Secret Realm experts. When they were still inner disciples, they had also secretly tried the Heaven Seeking Sword Art and almost 'asked' themselves how they died. It had almost become a shadow over their own lives as inner disciples.
This was also the reason why when Su Ye had revealed that he wanted to forcefully kill the Beitang Jie with a single slash, fear had appeared on their faces.
To Su Ye, Wentian's sword attack was something that Ye Yan City had hastily created. To him, it was a sword attack with only his heart and nothing else, and he was truly extremely proud and aloof, putting himself in a position that was on par with the heavens and furiously questioning the heavens. This sword attack was so powerful that there was nothing to say, but it was not complete.
Qin Wentian's sword strike only contained a single sword strike, so naturally he only had a single question. What he wanted to know was how to use his sword strike? This could be said to be a question that only those who cultivated the sword would ask, which was why such a question would evolve into a lonely and lofty sword technique.
Su Ye was not a person who became addicted to training in the sword. In his eyes, the sword was a type of weapon used to kill people, there was no other reason for it to exist. So his answer was also very simple, his sword
It was used to kill. If the sword could not kill, then he would not hesitate to throw away the sword and replace it with a weapon that could kill.
Hence, his sword was the Path Kill Sword. This fact was confirmed by the knowledge he gained from obtaining the Sword Truth from the will of the Vast Expanse Sword. This was also the reason why he was able to unleash a single sword strike from Wentian.
But Su Ye was still not satisfied, he felt that that was not enough. The heavens were the heavens' dao. How vast was it? Just by asking a single sword strike, one would know that it was too small. If one wanted to ask, one would have to ask, "Where is the heavens?"
I have to ask the heavens what you are, and what the use of your existence is.
However, Su Ye also knew his own limits, the might of the heavens could not be offended! This was definitely not a joke. Even if he had the ambition to ask the heavens what was wrong with the heavens, he wouldn't dare to integrate that question into his sword. With his current level, if he were to integrate that question into his sword, then he would definitely die.
"Where is the sky?"
If he couldn't ask randomly, then what about others?
Su Ye had always been considering this question, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this question was unfathomable. With his current knowledge, and his current understanding of the Great Way of the Heavens and Earth, he basically didn't have the qualifications to ask this question.
At the same time, he also had another feeling. If one day he was truly qualified to ask a question to the heavens, what would he ask then?
The Path of Heaven was vast and limitless, how could a single question clear it?
Especially after he unleashed Wentian's sword strike against the Beitang Jie, he no longer dared to rashly use his sword. Su Ye was very clear that this was the result of him lacking resources, that he had wavered in his will, and that he was lacking in confidence.
Until this moment, when he witnessed Mo Xingtian's domineering aura of being able to suppress heaven and earth with one punch, force himself to scheme, and not return for tens of miles with just one punch, and not give up until he killed Bi Zhuyan with one punch, his heart and blood started to boil with excitement.
"Mo Xingtian's fist, is like my sword! I hold the sword in my hand for the sake of killing.
It was this inspiration that caused Su Ye's wavering will to immediately stop. In his confused heart, a clear and distant sheen appeared in his eyes, as if he had seen through everything, and his true profound strength was visible. In that instant, he also had the urge to close everything as soon as possible.
At this moment, there were actually some changes in the sky!
