After the spiritual energy was restored: Goddess girlfriends came knocking.

Ao Tianxin remained suspended in place, her eyes closed.

Everyone knows what she's doing.

He used the power of the laws he carried during the True Immortal Tribulation to cleanse the laws he had comprehended.

At this time, it is best to avoid disturbing others.

Lin Chuchao exchanged glances with the four women.

The four members of Liuying nodded, their sword intent silently emanating outwards, encompassing the entire sky under their protection.

After a long while, Ao Tianxin opened her eyes.

He looked down at the knife in his hand, then raised his hand and slashed at something in the distance.

"Buzz!"

The moment the blade separated from the edge, the entire air emitted a piercing buzzing sound.

A thin, dark blue line extended from the blade's edge, stretching across the sky.

The landing point was on a mountain peak a hundred miles away.

"Sizzle—"

The mountain peak slowly split into two halves from its summit to its base.

The cut is as smooth as a mirror.

Even more terrifying is that the space on both sides of the incision was originally only a very thin line.

The next second, the thin line transformed into countless fine black cracks, spreading outwards like a spider web.

Space has cracked.

It wasn't until several breaths later that these cracks were gradually smoothed out by the rules of heaven and earth.

There was dead silence all around.

Then, a clamor spread like a tidal wave.

"The complete laws of the sword!"

"That Ao Tianxin is ruthless!"

"What kind of taste does the Lin family of Taixu have?"

"Stop talking, I haven't even touched the edge of the laws yet."

Ao Tianxin landed from the air and walked up to Lin Chu.

She was still a little out of breath, with a few strands of hair sticking to her cheeks, but her eyes were bright.

Lin Chu reached out and brushed away the stray hairs for her.

"What's the name of this strike?"

Ao Tian thought for a moment.

Let's call it "Opening the Mountain".

"good."

She slightly raised her chin: "How does my move compare to your 'Empty Cicada' technique?"

Lin Chu laughed: "We'll only know after we fight it."

"You're only at the early stage of Earth Immortal, you're no match for me." Ao Tianxin said without any politeness.

Lin Chu's lips twitched.

It really is.

The four sword servants looked at each other in bewilderment.

They first followed Ji Muwan, and later followed Lin Chu. Along the way, they have seen countless people of extraordinary talent.

In terms of talent and temperament in the art of swordsmanship, she would probably rank among the top names in my memory.

"No wonder the young master has taken a liking to her." Liu Ying muttered to herself.

Qi Jun's mouth remained open for a long time before he could close it.

He swallowed hard.

"If I get into a fight with Third Young Master in the future, will he be able to beat me?"

Liu Ying rolled her eyes at him.

"Young Master won't hit him."

Why?

"The young master usually chooses to run away."

The sword servants surrounded them.

Liu Ying smiled and cupped her hands in greeting: "Congratulations, Miss Ao, on your breakthrough to True Immortal!"

"Congratulations," said Xianyue, Qingshuang, and Fuyao.

Ao Tianxin nodded to each of them, a rare gentleness appearing on her face: "Thank you, sisters."

Qi Jun gave a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law, that knife you used just now made my legs tremble."

Yu Sheng stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Congratulations."

Ao Tianxin glanced at him and nodded: "Thank you."

Yu Sheng stepped aside.

He didn't say anything more.

Lin Chu noticed the slight dimness in Yu Sheng's eyes.

shook his head.

There's no way around it; talent is the most unreasonable and unpredictable thing.

……

The twenty-first floor.

On a cliff.

Cang Li sat alone.

A huge scythe was stuck in the ground at her feet, and her long hair was blowing wildly in the wind.

He gazed at the distant sea of ​​clouds, his eyes somewhat vacant.

News of Lin Chu's entry into the Imperial Road would be relayed up every few days.

At first, he compared them in his mind.

When you can't keep up, comfort yourself by saying there will be other opportunities later.

Until news came that Ao Tianxin had achieved enlightenment and undergone tribulation on the twentieth floor, and had unleashed a complete sword dao law with a single strike.

Because there was only one layer between them, the news quickly reached him through his followers.

Cang Li stretched out his hand and slowly opened it.

The palms are very white, and the fingers are long and slender.

From the day he was born, everyone's words were telling him the same thing.

Cang Li, you are the young master of the Cang Clan, and the strongest prodigy of this generation in Longyuan.

You were born to stand above everyone else.

Until Lin Chu appeared.

He then realized that the location above was just someone else's foothills.

Cang Li suddenly laughed.

"Is the gap really that big?"

The wind blew those words away.

No one answered.

……

The twenty-ninth floor of the Imperial Road.

On a scorched plain, a mountain-sized corpse lay across the ground.

It was a three-headed python, entirely black, with each scale gleaming with a chilling light.

Even though it was dead, the lingering scent on its corpse still made the surrounding vegetation droop.

A boy was sitting casually on the head of the giant python.

He had delicate features, like a frail scholar.

But when he opened his mouth, it was a series of rough and hearty laughs.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Did you hear me!"

"That's my brother!"

The sound echoed around them. Lin Che slapped the giant python on the head, making the head, which was a hundred times larger than him, shake.

Upon hearing this, they all responded with smiles.

"The Second Master's younger brother is naturally extraordinary."

"That's right, if Second Master is so talented, how could Third Master be any less so?"

Lin Che was overjoyed and jumped off the giant python's head.

"It'll be here soon."

He clapped his hands, picked up the long sword that was taller than a man again, and looked into the distance.

"Let's go, let's go, give it our all!"

"At this rate, we should run into them soon."

……

The thirty-second floor.

In a starry sky.

Countless specks of light floated in the air, as if one were in a grand dream.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on a star platform, his body as solid as a rock.

All news from the outside world was cut off.

His eyes were closed, and he was dressed in white, as white as snow.

After an unknown amount of time, a speck of light drifted from a great distance and landed on his brow.

A fine bead of sweat slid down his forehead.

It evaporates and cleanses itself, just like water vapor.

……

The thirty-ninth floor.

The sea of ​​clouds surged.

Jian Li sat on a cloud, with a sword under her buttocks and her left hand casually resting on her knee.

Below, three terrifyingly powerful beasts were locked in battle.

Each attack was enough to shatter half of the space.

She just looked down, her face expressionless.

Jian Li at this moment is very different from when she was in the Xuan Tian Realm.

His expression grew even colder.

His height also increased significantly.

Compared to Xiaoxiao, he was a head taller.

She wore a long white dress, her hair was as black as ink, and a gentle breeze rustled the hem of her dress.

His whole being resembled a sword already drawn from its sheath.

Beautiful, sharp, and so striking that one dares not look directly at it.

……

The nineteenth floor.

Beast tide.

A vast horde of ferocious beasts, their eyes bloodshot, surged forth from the surrounding wasteland.

Sikong saw a man carrying a sword.

His sword was not fast; in fact, it was somewhat slow.

Each sword strike was as light as poking at the surface of water.

The sword's momentum dissipated, and the foremost giant beast was pulled by the sword light, its massive body thrown out by inertia.

They crashed into the herd of beasts behind them, and many fell to the ground.

The second beast pounced.

Another sword strike, angled to meet the beast's sharp claws, gently drawing it away.

The beast flipped over, belly up, and crashed into the ground.

More beasts surged forward.

He stood still, deflecting the attacks one by one with his sword.

Within ten steps of him, not a single beast could actually get close.

Transformation.

This is his way of the sword.

Without vying or fighting, following the natural course, each sword strike lands precisely where it should.

If Lin Chu were here, she would probably be stunned for a moment.

This approach of using softness to overcome hardness and borrowing force to strike is very similar to the Tai Chi of Earth.

Of course, Sikong Jian didn't know what Tai Chi was.

All he knew was that Lin Chu had reached the twentieth floor.

And I'm still on the nineteenth floor.

He became more and more focused as he played.

The more they fought, the more silent they became.

He sheathed his sword only after the last monster fell.

Corpses littered the surrounding area.

Sikong Jian stood amidst this mountain of corpses, looking up ahead.

"Lin Chu."
