C57 (2/2)

I smiled wryly. It must have been the moment when my heart relaxed and my control over the Qi Method relaxed, causing the sword qi to break through and injure me. If it was at noon on the mountain top and the sword qi was flourishing … It was undeniable that at that time, all that was left was a pile of minced meat.

I went forward again, but this time I was very careful. I cut a deep wound on my arm, and covered the stone that was given to me by Chengtian with my Spiritual Energy. After my wound recovered, I took out my hidden knife and carefully walked forward.

However, if this stone was harmed by the sword qi and lost the Immortal Emperor's favor for nothing, it would be extremely painful. Fortunately, I placed the Heaven's Heart Pill in the White Jade Gate because I did not need to bring it with me, otherwise, I would have made another hole and placed it in my body.

After walking forward for a long time, he still did not discover any Cloud Stepping Flowers. At this point, it was already his turn, and the Yin Qi was the heaviest.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse. Originally, I was standing high up, but it seemed as if I was really closer to the night sky. As the cool breeze blew by, I quietly felt a serenity I have never experienced before. It's not dead silence, but true tranquility!

Was the sky realm considered close to the sky? The closer one was to the sky, the more one could feel the threshold of the Heavenly Realm. Would one be able to touch this barrier?

Looking at the sky for a long time … Suddenly, I felt something. I slowly closed my eyes and experienced the tranquility. Everything in the night sky seemed to still be in front of me. It was as if my eyes were the sky and my eyes were the sky … Gradually, within his soul, there was a voice that was filled with bewitching charm, telling him that the Dao of Heaven is merciless. Give up everything, give up your heart, and you can take control of fate and gain the Dao of Immortality that everyone hopes for!

Hatred? Why revenge? Life and death had their own cycle of reincarnation, and everything had its own destiny. It was just like Grandpa Sun had said, everything was fated! Life, death, love, under this vast night sky, how tiny, so small … I can't seem to feel it anymore! Did I give up my hatred? Or was it that under this silence, even their emotions would be diluted?

No! I don't want to give up!

I snapped open my eyes. How could I give up! The tragic deaths of his parents, his younger brother's death, and the loss of more than a hundred lives in the same village. Did that mean he could just give up like that? The murderer is still free, the accomplice is still happy, can I be worthy of my own heart?

I can't!

Heavens! You want me to give up my hatred, give up my kinship, to believe that you have some kind of bullshit fate, you can't do that!

I let out a soundless roar towards the sky. If anyone could hear me, they would understand the sadness in my heart … Father, mother, and my unborn brother, don't worry. I will kill Qiu Xi, and the entire Sky Sect will accompany you in death! This is my promise, my son's promise!

At this moment, I didn't know that I had given up on an opportunity the moment I chose to open my eyes. The sudden realization that was rumored to have been dispelled by my hatred just like that. When I found out about it, I didn't regret it. If I tried again, I would still choose to open my eyes, listen to my heart's choice, and walk the path of resisting fate.

Seemingly disappointed with my choice, dark clouds started to float down from the sky and the originally bright world turned dark. However, this black night couldn't obstruct my sight, nor could it obstruct my heart!

There is no light in the night, but it is very dim. Ordinary people can't see it, and it can't stop cultivators' spiritual energy from gathering in their eyes. It's not like the darkness in a valley where there is no light, it devours all light and hope.

Unknowingly, two hours passed while I was searching. That short moment of enlightenment was due to the fact that I seemed to have given up just a few breaths later.

At a glance, I turned my head sharply and fixed my eyes on the flowers that were shimmering in the night.

The cloud flower was no taller than two feet. The leaf on the palm was like a sieve, and on it was a snow-white flower about the size of a thumb, ready to bloom. As I got closer, I saw that its petals were like silk, stamens were like stars, and as I took a deep breath, there was no fragrance.

This was exactly the same as the Cloud-Stepping Flower described by Lan Yun. It was just that there was no sword energy so it could not absorb it. Therefore, it had not bloomed yet.

After waiting quietly for several hours, a ray of light appeared in the horizon. It was like a hope that had cut through the night. When the light shone on the flowers, the flowers gradually bloomed like the smiles of lovers, emitting such a beautiful light!

The sword aura of the entire mountain peak suddenly intensified. Although it was not yet noon, at this moment, it seemed as if it was extremely excited in preparation for the arrival of the morning sun. It was cheering and jumping with joy!

Just as I was lamenting about the mystery of the Sword Peak, a thought suddenly appeared in my mind. A bold guess!

This sword peak was originally a sword!

It was unknown which great divine ability cultivator had turned the sword into such a huge shape to absorb the Yang Qi in the world. The trembling sword qi was clearly trembling because of the sword spirit!

The sword faction's strength was average, but why did it rise up in just a few decades and even survive until now? Who exactly was the person behind it that was trying to intimidate everyone?
