Chapter 866 – Yang Ye Doesnt Dare To Come? (1/2)

Was the Law of Speed formidable?

Of course it was!

Yang Ye was very clearly aware that Nan Ketu’s own physical strength was actually just comparable to an ordinary Exalt Realm expert, but Nan Ketu had been able to blast him flying. Why? Because when speed arrived at a certain level, then it could create unparalleled strength. Take a stone for example, it didn’t carry any force on its own, but if it fell from over 10km above, then the force it carried when it crashed to the ground would definitely be sufficient to kill a First Heaven Realm cultivator with ease!

It could be said that if the Laws of Speed was used well, then it wouldn’t be any weaker than his Decay Laws.

If he hadn’t relied on the Sword Domain to suppress Nan Ketu’s Laws of Speed, then even if his Decay Laws could kill Nan Ketu with ease, how would his Decay Laws strike Nan Ketu when Nan Ketu was that swift?

When speed arrived at a certain level, all techniques and even Laws were actually useless against it!

The reason Yang Ye had refined Nan Ketu into a Sword Servant was naturally because he wanted to learn the Laws of Speed. If it was anyone else, it would definitely be impossible because even An Nanjing would be absolutely incapable of learning another’s Laws. Even if that person displayed it repeatedly to her.

After all, Nan Ketu had practically used his entire lifetime to comprehend it!

So if someone else wanted to learn it from him, it would be very difficult, as difficult as ascending into the heavens. However, it wasn’t that difficult for Yang Ye!

It was naturally impossible for him to comprehend the Laws of Speed if it was just displayed to him, but what if it was done while within the scope of his Sword Domain?

The Sword Domain formed a world of its own, and everything within the Sword Domain would appear clearly within his vision. It could be said that everything within the Sword Domain was equivalent to a part of his body.

If Nan Ketu displayed the Laws of Speed to him within his Sword Domain, then he could sense the Laws of Speed to the very greatest degree!

Of course, it made sense in theory, but Yang Ye didn’t know if he could really succeed.

But it was worth a try!

Yang Ye didn’t waste any time and immediately activated the Sword Domain. Next, he ordered Nan Ketu to start displaying the Laws of Speed to him. In the beginning, Yang Ye didn’t utilize the Sword Domain to suppress Nan Ketu, and Nan Ketu’s speed under such circ.u.mstances was so swift that even he could only see a blurry shadow flas.h.i.+ng by.

At this moment, Yang Ye had a solemn expression on his face. Because it would have been utterly impossible for him to kill Nan Ketu without the Sword Domain. Unless his sword intent was still at the 13th level, then he could use his sword intent to lock down the s.p.a.ce around him. Otherwise, not to mention killing Nan Ketu, he might be killed instead!

I must comprehend the Laws of Speed…. If I succeed, then would even a high rank Half-Saint be able to do anything to me? Yang Ye had a determined glow in his eyes, and Nan Ketu grew slower and slower under his orders. It was like Nan Ketu had been slowed down by over 100 times.

Yang Ye stared fixedly at Nan Ketu without letting any detail escape his notice. Because he had the Sword Domain, he was able to completely and clearly sense the minute movements Nan Ketu made as he utilized the Laws of Speed. Besides that, he could sense the changes in the surroundings, and various other changes once Nan Ketu activated the Laws of Speed. All of this felt like he was experiencing it himself.

Nan Ketu’s speed started from slow to fast. Later on, it went from fast to slow again, and then it started from slow to fast again.

Yang Ye’s expression was changing incessantly. First there was wild joy on his face, yet it didn’t take long for his brows to knit together tightly, and then he was overjoyed once more before frowning again.

…

The Dao Order.

The Dao Order resided on a mountain range at the southernmost area of Pine Prefecture, and the mountain range was like a huge dragon that was coiled up in the area. There was a towering and huge mountain that floated in the sky above. However, the mountain was upside down with its peak facing the ground and a round base up in the air. It seemed absolutely boundless, and it was like an enormous sword that was stabbed into the ground. It was an extremely grand sight!

There was a very long stone stairway that connected the mountain with the ground, and it was the renowned Cloud Ascension Stairs of the Dao Order!

They were no ordinary stairs.

The Ancient Sword School’s requirements for new disciples was that they could attain at least the 6th level of sword intent at the age of 16. However, the Dao Order’s requirement was related to the Cloud Ascension Stairs. Anyone who wanted to join the Dao Order had to take the Cloud Ascension Stairs!

The stairs had 5 tests which were left behind by the Dao Order’s Founding Ancestor, and they respectively tested willpower, temperament, strength, the heart, and the Dao.

Anyone beneath the Monarch Realm who could pa.s.s the tests of willpower and temperament could become outer court disciples of the Dao Order, and they could pa.s.s the test of strength, then they could become inner court disciples. If the test of the heart was pa.s.sed as well, then that person could become the personal disciple of the Dao Order’s Master. As for the test of the Dao….

Besides the Masters of the Dao Order, no one knew what the rewards for pa.s.sing the test of the Dao was. Because since the Founding Ancestor of the Dao Order had created these tests, no one had even pa.s.sed the test of the Dao.

Even the Protector of Order who was said to be a genius that was rare to come by in 10,000 years had been stopped by the test of Dao.

There was a pergola at the lowest step of the Cloud Ascension Stairs, and it was specially built by the Dao Order. As for the reason, it was naturally prepared for those geniuses to use as a place for resting before they attempted to ascend the stairs.

Some failed the 1st time, so they would try a 2nd, or a 3rd. There were even many who failed over 100 times, but there were those who succeeded as well. So long as they succeeded, it meant that the Dao Order would obtain another disciple with potential.

In the Dao Order’s opponent, it refused to let go of any disciples with potential. Because such people who tried many times in order to succeeded would usually have even more potential than those who pa.s.sed on the 1st try!

At this moment, there were countless cultivators in the pergola. It wasn’t just there, even the area around it was filled with countless people.

They were from all over the prefecture, and they’d naturally come here to watch the battle between Yang Ye and the geniuses of the Dao Order.
