Chapter 101 Self-Isolation, Damage to Divinity!
Chapter 101 Self-Isolation, Damage to Divinity!
With his sword intent subsided, Li Jie slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
It seems this trick is exceptionally effective.
He turned to look at the two corpses, their heads separated from their bodies, and a surge of heroic emotion welled up within him.
God? I slew him with a single sword strike!
Although such a feat was largely achieved thanks to the power of the sword intent within the celestial sword in the box!
But it is also a true example of a mortal killing a god!
During the battle with Loki and those mythical behemoths.
Li Jie's insights never stopped.
The appearance of the sword spirit from the Legend of Sword and Fairy helped him complete this enlightenment.
As you observe Loki's every move, sensing the latter's cunning and divine power, you gain some insight and comprehend the art of strategy...
As you continue to observe the spirit of the immortal sword, sensing its vast aura and ultimate sword intent, a flash of inspiration strikes, and you comprehend the ultimate sword technique, [Hundred Steps Flying Sword]!
After the deep chanting of the sutra faded, a silver-white sword light, as fast as lightning, appeared in his mind.
A hundred-step flying sword, a single blade severing a throat!
This sword strike is all about speed!
With the power of the immortal sword, coupled with the vast sword intent of the vertical sword.
Loki's avatar and Jormungandr, the serpent of Midgard, were instantly beheaded!
However, after this battle, the immortal sword in the box returned to peace once again.
The image of the fairy no longer appeared in his mind.
Li Jie knew that if his strength couldn't keep up, it would be difficult to open the sword box again.
Thinking about this, he became even more curious about the true form of the immortal sword.
Even a wisp of sword energy possesses the power to slay gods.
If one were to gain control of their own body...
Does that mean I can shout, "Under my sword, Li Jie, there are no immortals in the world!"
hey-hey....
Upon realizing this, Li Jie couldn't help but laugh out loud.
You know what, that's actually pretty cringeworthy.
..........
Asgard, the temple of the god of mischief.
Loki, who was sitting cross-legged on his throne, suddenly opened his eyes.
His face turned purple, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of golden divine blood!
impossible! !
How could he possess the power to kill a god?!
Ultimately, he was just an ordinary mortal...
It's that sword!!
Damn...
With this thought in mind, he slammed his fist hard on his throne.
In the battle of Cangnan, he not only lost one of his avatars.
That sword that terrified him had also wounded his soul...
Indeed, when Loki examined his injuries, he discovered that one-fifth of his soul could not be restored.
This made his face extremely gloomy.
If Loki's soul is damaged beyond repair, then it means that he will never be able to ascend to the highest realm!
This was as if his path of cultivation had been severed...
Li Jie!!!
One day, I will make you pay the price!
He pulled himself out of his thoughts and murmured to himself.
'Si Xiaonan, answer my call......'
'.....'
.........
"No...don't leave me..."
Just as Li Jie was lost in thought.
Lin Qiye's murmur came from behind.
Oh no... there are still things that haven't been resolved...
He turned around, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and soon arrived beside Lin Qiye, who was squatting on the ground, weeping bitterly.
"Seven Nights, wake up!"
"No matter how heartbroken you are, they're gone forever. What you need to do now is to live on strongly!!"
Li Jie's two sentences were infused with the true energy within his body.
When the words reached Lin Qiye's ears, it was as if he had been given a calming medicine.
Upon hearing Li Jie's words, Lin Qiye raised his head, which had been buried in his chest.
It's not hard to tell from his expression.
His mind was on the verge of collapse.
The aftereffects of carrying the soul, coupled with extreme grief, left this "child of prophecy" unsure how to face reality.
He stared blankly at Li Jie, opened his mouth but no sound came out.
Just when Li Jie was at a loss for what to do...
An elderly man with white hair and a youthful face, dressed in simple clothes, tore through space and arrived.
Yang Jin, whose memories had been awakened, followed behind the Celestial Venerable and walked slowly.
"elder brother!!"
Seeing Lin Qiye on the verge of collapse, Yang Jin exclaimed and stepped forward, squatting down beside him.
"What's wrong?" Seeing the latter's lifeless eyes, clearly a sign of his soul leaving his body, he knelt down in front of the old man in plain clothes without saying a word.
"Heavenly Venerable One, please save my brother! I..."
Before Yang Jin could finish speaking, the Plain-Clad Celestial Venerable flicked his whisk and helped him up.
Then, he injected several pure white mind-cleansing spells into Lin Qiye's mind.
"Foolish child, you're just letting your concern cloud your judgment."
The Celestial Venerable shook his head and said to Yang Jin.
"How can I feel at ease sending you to fight in distant lands if you act like this?"
"I have repaired his soul, but whether he can wake up successfully depends on himself!"
"After all, this incident was a huge blow to him."
"But..." At this point, the Plain-Clad Celestial Venerable turned to look at Li Jie.
"I didn't expect this young friend to actually be able to wield the power of that sword..."
Hearing that the Celestial Venerable had cured Lin Qiye, Li Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was curious about the true identity of the sword, saving Lin Qiye was the top priority right now.
"Heavenly Venerable, I wonder if Qi Ye is safe and sound."
"Hmm?" Seeing that Li Jie did not follow his lead and ask about the origin of the sword.
A hint of appreciation appeared in the eyes of the Celestial Venerable.
Loyal and devoted, with deep feelings and true character!
I knew I hadn't misjudged him!
"Logically speaking, there should have been no problem. Fortunately, before Cangnan was destroyed, you allowed him to go home once and see Yang Jin's mother for the last time."
"Otherwise... the symptoms will become more severe..."
"Michael's divine power has not yet disappeared, and the damage to his soul also needs time to settle."
"Once he wakes up, we'll find him a safe place to recuperate. There's no danger to his life!"
The Celestial Venerable's explanation was clear enough, and now even Yang Jin, who had been showing signs of worry, was relieved.
When will my brother wake up?
The Celestial Venerable rolled his eyes at Yang Jin, clearly annoyed.
"That depends on when he can let go of everything..."
Lin Qiye's matter has been resolved.
Now, the two Celestial Venerables' gazes fell upon Li Jie.
Unexpectedly, Qi Ye's elder brother was actually able to wield that immortal sword and successfully slay a god.
He's just a mortal man, after all...
"Little guy, you really surprised me..."
Ok?
Upon hearing the Celestial Venerable call him, Li Jie also showed a puzzled expression.
“I noticed you the very day you awakened to that so-called forbidden realm.”
"The divination result surprised me greatly."
"You are not a native of this world."
"From the time you appeared to the time you awakened your power, it was only half an hour..."
"I'm curious, where exactly do you come from?"
The Celestial Venerable's words resounded in Li Jie's heart like a thunderclap.
As expected of one of the Three Pure Ones, he is truly a master of fortune telling.
Seeing that Li Jie did not answer, the Celestial Venerable did not ask any further questions.
Since he doesn't want to explain, why should I force him?
"Alright, it's time for us to part ways for now. One last thing: treat the contents of that sword case with care, or else... you'll be in for a world of hurt!"
