Chapter 333 Southern Heavenly Gate (2/2)
'The start of Taichi was boundless [1]… It is not considered high even though it is above Wuji, it is not considered deep even though it is under the Liuhe, it is not considered old even though it grew with the sky and land, it is not considered ancient even though it grew since the ancient times [2]; the origin of the celestial masses, the ancestor of prosperity. The boundless Taixu, silent and solitary, being in the center, floating in Liuxu, it enters and leaves Netherworld, majestic and imperceptible, unique yet unchanging, independent and changeless, revolving, circulating and ceaseless, that can be regarded as the Mother of All Thing.' The following paragraph of texts was hard to understand. With Shen Lian's current state, it turned out that he could not really comprehend a lot.
The good thing was that this paragraph was not too long, as though it was just a remnant of some Dao formula with parts of succinct contend and principles lost from the middle part.
When Shen Lian exited from this conception, Ye Liuyun was nowhere to be found.
That paragraph of text was actually a major help for him to comprehend the 'Avici's' sword will. It even made it easy for him to analyze the sword will that he inherited from Grandmaster Yuanqing.
With a flick of his finger, the wisp of sword aura suddenly appeared and penetrated through the roof in an instance. With a sizzling sound, it reached the high skies. It left Shen Lian's senses within the blink of an eye and it probably had already broken through the skies and reached the highest heavens.
That condensed wisp of sword aura increased by one fold on his previous sword aura.
He did not know the origins of the paragraph of text left by Ye Liuyun but it was so formidable that it allowed Shen Lian to have a deeper understanding of Grandmaster Yuanqing's sword will, and that his swordcraft has improved significantly.
Furthermore, that text paragraph was just a remnant and it has most of its crucial parts lost.
Of course, for Shen Lian to be able to have reaped such benefits, it was more because of the sword will he has inherited from Grandmaster Yuanqing. Not only that, this text paragraph was like it was tailor-made for this sword will, allowing this sword will to be analyzed.
Shen Lian felt that he had underestimated Grandmaster Yuanqing's sword will back then. If he truly understood it fully, even though it was nowhere close to the Trapping Celestial Sword, he could still rampage through the universe and train up a supreme crusading Dao army. Even the celestials would be chilled to the bones.
At the same time, curiosity welled up in him. Why did whatever Ye Liuyun had learned have anything to do with Grandmaster Yuanqing?
Also, by really savoring this text paragraph, even though it was somehow related to the demon realm, its ingenuity was similar to Daoism.
There was another suspicious point and that was with Qing Xuan's formidable Dao restriction, for Ye Liuyun, who was in spirit form and not a Qing Xuan disciple, to trespass the gate restrictions and not alerting anyone at all, it was truly unthinkable.
This was definitely not because Ye Liuyun's unfathomable cultivation experience was on par with those of the celestial and Buddha sects.
Shen Lian even confirmed that Ye Liuyun did not have the same cultivation experience as he did and he did not cross the threshold that separates the celestials and mortals.
This was because Ye Liuyun's previous manifestation of the spirit still lacked some transparency.
All these suspicions did not have solutions. However, if it was as Ye Liuyun mentioned, that the Southern Heavenly Gate would naturally appear at that moment and he could see it, Shen Lian would still go and have a look.
After all, the Guangqing Celestial Sect was already on its way of remolding the celestial court and their heritage. Shen Lian needed to get to the bottom of this so that he could deal with Guangqing. This was to avoid having the underhand when a huge war happens. Knowing your enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.
Furthermore, it was too late to resolve the grudges between the two sects.
Shen Lian too was clear about this. Peace can only be achieved through war. Even if he does not want any squabbles while considering the disciples of his sect, he still needed to show the domineering strength or else there would be nothing to be talked about.
