Vol 20 Chapter 29 (1/2)

Book 20, Jindan Upgrade, Chapter 29 – Understanding the Sword

Empyrean God Sin and Empyrean God Sealthroat walked forward shoulder-to-shoulder, staring at the beautiful Immortal estate located on the distant mountain peak

“Darknorth was only able to defeat eight guardians this time, and the last two are even more powerful…I’m afraid that it will be many, many years before we’ll be able to leave” Sealthroat let out a sigh He had challenged the Path of Blades h it seeh ‘only’ tere left, a person could easily end up spending a million or ten million years on each of the final two

For exa Kilostar Island Countless years had passed, but he was only able to defeat two uardians Ji Ning would be facing…they would be the uardians of all

As for Sealthroat and Sin, they had been here for even longer periods of time, but the amount of improvement they were able to uardian now compared to when they had first reached Kilostar Island

“That’s not necessarily so” Sin shook his head “We’ve been on Kilostar Island for a long period of time and we’ve only improved a bit, but that’s because spent far too much time on the previous islands Almost all of our potential was already squeezed out of us, and we’ve pretty much increased as much as we can in power Of course ould find it very hard to improve any further! Darknorth, however,Undermoon Lake He still has reater than ours to begin with Don’t forget, Reverend Jueuardians all at once, thanks to a sudden insight”

Sealthroat was briefly startled He nodded “Your words make sense Our potential has been squeezed dry and we are almost at our limit, but Darknorth is different”

“Honestly, I’ve been puzzled this entire tiht his way to Kilostar Island in one try This sort of talent and ability…in the Three Realms, he definitely would have been one of the most supreme of Empyrean Gods In fact, the True Gods and Daofathers should view hiood chance of joining their ranks Why is it that he illing to risk Undermoon Lake?”

“Right” Sealthroat sighed as well “I was also puzzled”

Ning’s talent had been acknowledged even as far back as the Conclave of Ibin and Subhuti

They were both able to tell that Ning was born with tre didn’t disappoint Subhuti with his rapid rise in power He had improved at a tremendously fast rate, and the fact that he had reached the fourth stage of heartforce was an unexpected surprise to Subhuti By now, the top-tierin the exact sa the Primordial Era

However…the difference was that Lu Dongbin had the luxury of time to slowly build up a powerful foundation, then h to instantly become a top-tier Daofather

Ji Ning?

In his case, the storm had already descended, and the Empyrean Gods and True I each other The battles were becoer, and once the final battles for karmic luck were concluded, the Endwar that would determine the destiny of the entire Three Real had was sirets which Subhuti and the others had

Despite their regrets, however, they also felt that there was a chance that Ji Ning would gain a sudden flash of insight during one of the h to beco hadn’t trained in the [Taowu Eighteen FiendGods], Subhuti would not have per to enter Undermoon Lake

However, thanks to the dangers of Under and i so rapidly that he was now just a step away from complete mastery of the [Five Treasures]

“No matter what the reason is for it, Darknorth’s entry into this place was a blessing for us” Sin sighed with emotion as he looked at the distant I”

“Right When Darknorth returned fro to us He iained quite a few insights,” Sealthroat said

“Even I reaped great gains fro of Darknorth”

“Right Hopefully, he’ll be able to ih that he can complete the Path of Blades”

“Wait and see”

The two Empyrean Gods were both filled with hope

They truly had no faith in their ability to overcome the Path of Blades After countless years, they remained trapped at theable to escape

“Brother Darknorth is in secluded meditation”

“I hope he’ll be able to improve dramatically as a result”

The Seven Dragon Gods stared at the distant Ist themselves

All the Empyrean Gods on Kilostar Island were focused on that I within it These Eo; even Sin and Sealthroat, ere qualified to atte able to succeed

All their hopes rested with Ning They did not, however, dare to give Ning too much overt pressure…and so they simply hoped silently

They drea those colorful, varied worlds

They drea with their loved ones

Even though returning …

They felt no fear!

This was because there was so without hope To these Eiven up, life in Undermoon Lake was almost zombie-like; there was no hope at all

The beautiful I’s sword-training pavilion was many kilometers in circumference, and the pavilion was studded with y of Heaven and Earth,to behold

The white-robed youth, Ji Ning, ielding a sword in his hand and executing sword-arts with it

Whooooosh!+
