  In a blink of an eye, Ye Yuan had already arrived at the final step of the 33 steps.

  This time, only one beam of sword intent condensed in front of Ye Yuan!

  But when Ye Yuan laid eyes on this sword intent, this face changed to a never before seen solemnness!

  This streak of sword intent was where the true meaning of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art lied!

  Like before, Ye Yuan took a step forward. The sword intent did not strike immediately but gradually became corporeal.

  "Be careful, Ye Yuan! This beam of sword intent is the pinnacle work of Founding Ancestor, You Wuya! It has unbelievable power. Even if you comprehended sword intent, you still have to be careful when dealing with it," Lu Yan warned.

  Ye Yuan said with a solemn face, "Many thanks for Senior's warning. Ye Yuan knows!"

  Previously, those sword intents were overflowing with sword qi. But this time around, Ye Yuan could not even feel the slightest trace of sword qi leaking out!

  From this, one could tell just how consolidated this streak of sword intent was!

  When Ye Yuan's foot landed on the Nine Heavens Road's 999th step, the streak of sword intent finally mobilized!

  Chapter 104 - Fusing Sword Intent!

  "En? Just now, I clearly still felt that incredible sword intent. Why is there nothing now? Could it be that Ye Yuan succeeded in passing the stage?" Huyan Yong suddenly exclaimed.

  "If he succeeded in passing this round, the Nine Heavens Peak will condense a rainbow road to send him down the mountain."

  Feng Ruoqing's words meant that Ye Yuan still had not passed the stage successfully.

  "But . . . what's this situation? Could Ye Yuan have . . ." Being completely unable to view the situation inside the Nine Heavens Road, Huyan Yong's imagination started running wild.

  "Stop making wild guesses. We should just wait patiently. However, the Nine Heavens Road this time is truly somewhat peculiar. I wonder what Ye Yuan encountered inside."

  . . . . . .

  Since the final streak of Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art started condensing, Ye Yuan already completely stop unleashing the sword intent from his body and shut his eyes.

  It seemed like he had completely given up on resisting.

  "What are you doing, Ye Yuan? This streak of sword intent is extraordinary! You will die like this!" Lu Yan's voice transmitted over.

  Ye Yuan ignored Lu Yan. In reality, he had already entered a selfless state and sealed his five senses up.

  In Ye Yuan's world, there was only that utterly terrifying sword intent left in front of him!

  He was savoring the sword intent of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art on purpose.

  While on this road, Ye Yuan had used the Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword Intent to guide the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art, and it was not a simple evasion of sword intent.

  Since the original intention of this array was to allow future generations to study the sword art, then this set of sword techniques would not place emphasis on killing.

  Except, this sword art was too powerful. Students were unable to comprehend it, which was why they fell here.

  From countless streaks sword intents to a thousand streaks, then a hundred streaks, ten streaks, and finally one streak. The quantity decreased, but the power progressively increased!

  It looked like this was the effect brought forth due to the manifestation of sword intent. But with Ye Yuan's experience, it was naturally not so shallow.

  These final 333 steps were actually the process of how You Wuya gradually deepened his understanding towards sword intent!

  And this final sword was the most powerful sword intent which You Wuya left behind in the Endless World!

  If this final sword came out right away, then it would have been impossibly difficult to comprehend the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art's sword intent.

  But the ingenious part was that You Wuya derived the forms on the steps from his lifetime's comprehension. This resulted in the possibility of allowing the challenger to comprehend sword intent.

  Of course, the prerequisite was that the challenger could survive under such cold piercing sword intent.

  Nobody could be like Ye Yuan to have the thoughts to comprehend the sword intent leisurely.

  Although the Nine Heavens Road was rather bumpy, Ye Yuan had to admit that You Wuya had expended much care and thought for future generation disciples.

  "Why aren't you using sword intent, Ye Yuan!" Seeing that streak of sword intent about to fire, Lu Yan's anxious voice transmitted over once more.

  The sword intent was already fully activated. Even he had no way of stopping that sword intent anymore.

  Ye Yuan actually withdrew his own sword intent at the most critical moment, which caught him totally off-guard.

  Swoosh!

  When Ye Yuan's feet landed on the 999th step, that sword intent suddenly activated.

  The sword intent converged without spreading, but Lu Yan was aware of this sword's terror.

  But right at this moment, Ye Yuan's eyes remained shut, as if he was unaware of the impending danger.

  Lu Yan gritted his teeth, and he instantly appeared in front of Ye Yuan!

  A faint phantom stretched his hand out to draw a circle in front of him. A streak of sword intent condensed and shot out.

  However, this streak of sword intent was just like an ant encountering an elephant when compared to that streak of sword intent which blasted over. The difference was too huge.

  Lu Yan was able to condense such a terrifying sword intent because he unleashed it through the array formation.

  Now that this streak of sword intent was released by him himself, the power was too weak.

  After all, Lu Yan was only a fragmented wisp of divine sense.

  He wanted to save Ye Yuan, but the flesh was weak even though the spirit was willing.

  "Many thanks, Senior Lu. Allow me." Right then, Ye Yuan's calm voice sounded out from behind Lu Yan.

  Meanwhile, an aura which Lu Yan was familiar, yet also a stranger to, rose from Ye Yuan's body.

  There was no time to think, so Lu Yan made way for Ye Yuan.

  That streak of sword intent was extremely fast and arrived in front of Ye Yuan in a blink of an eye.

  However, Lu Yan could clearly see that when the streak of sword intent reached several dozen meters in front of Ye Yuan, it became like it was submerged in mud. The speed became increasingly slower and progressively sluggish.

  Finally, that streak of sword intent came to a stop around two feet in front of Ye Yuan.

  Ye Yuan reached out, and lightly tapped the tip of the sword with a finger. That streak of sword intent dissipated with a bang!

  Lu Yan who was watching by the side was flabbergasted and was utterly dazed for some time.

  He had never thought that this final stage could be cleared like this!

  This was simply inconceivable!

  He had hosted the Nine Heavens Road's third stage for nearly 200 years and was all too clear on the might of that streak of sword intent.

  This was with the array formation at full power. Even a peak Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist might not be able to withstand that streak of sword intent, yet it scattered with a gentle tap from Ye Yuan?

  "Many thanks to Senior Lu for sacrificing yourself to save me just now!" Ye Yuan gave a bow to Lu Yan. Only now was his consciousness dragged back to reality.

  Lu Yan stared at Ye Yuan like he was looking at a monster. He smiled bitterly as he said, "My actions just now were redundant. That final sword would not have been able to deal any harm to you."

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "No matter what, Senior Lu ignored your own safety to save Ye Yuan just now. Ye Yuan will definitely engrave this in my heart."

  Lu Yan coming to save Ye Yuan was indeed unnecessary, but he did not know that Ye Yuan could deal with that beam of sword intent!

  If Lu Yan took on that sword just now, his soul would have disintegrated by n
ow.

  Just based on this action was worthy of Ye Yuan remembering it.

  Lu Yan however just waved his hands and said emotionally, "I didn't expect this! I really didn't expect this! My Tranquil Cloud Sect actually birthed such a peerless genius like you! Not only did you comprehend the Heart Like Still Water Realm, you even fused together sword intents in the third stage!"

  Only after his shock did Lu Yan find out why he had such a peculiar feeling just now.

  The aura coming off of Ye Yuan carried his own sword intent's aura and also had the aura of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art!

  Ye Yuan, he actually merged the two completely different sword intent into one and transformed it into his own new sword intent!

  Even if You Wuya returned, such talent was beyond his!

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "This Junior was lucky. Does this count as me passing?"

  From the moment the array formation was fully unleashed, Ye Yuan already had the thought of incorporating the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art's sword intent into his own sword intent.

  The Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword was excessively nimble, while the attack was lacking. This was its greatest flaw.

  But the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art was a sword technique which emphasized on slaughter. The attack power was immensely powerful. Furthermore, this sword intent's level was very high and not beneath that of Ye Yuan's sword intent. It was very suited to be merged into the Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword.

  Finally, he had a sudden epiphany at the last moment.

  The fused sword intent was on an entirely different level from before. Hence, that streak of sword intent was just like an obedient baby in front of Ye Yuan's aura.

  The competition between sword intent was not a competition of strength, but instead, it was a competition towards the comprehension of sword intent. Otherwise, Ye Yuan would have long been pulverized into meat paste.

  Lu Yan nodded his head somewhat mechanically. "Of course it counts as passing! A flawless pass!"

  Chapter 105 - First in a Thousand Years!

  Of course he passed!

  If even Ye Yuan's result did not count as a pass, then nobody could clear it.

  After the shock, Lu Yan was wildly ecstatic in his heart. To have such a genius figure appear, why would the Tranquil Cloud Sect worry about not being able to return to the Northern Domain?

  "Ye Yuan, your talent is even greater than Founding Ancestor You Wuya! I'm afraid that your future accomplishments are probably not going to be inferior to him. My Tranquil Cloud Sect is truly fortunate to have you!" Lu Yan sighed in admiration.

  "Many thanks for Senior's praise."

  Ye Yuan had never doubted his own talent before.

  In his previous life, it was just that he did not place his attention on the martial path. But his talent in Martial Dao was not necessarily inferior to Ji Canglan.

  "Rainbow Road! Appear!"

  Lu Yan gave a low cry and fired a shot of essence energy into the array. Following that, a multi-colored road appeared on the top of the Nine Heavens Peak.

  "Ye Yuan, right now, you can be considered to have inherited Founding Ancestor You Wuya's mantle. I hope that you won't forget today's promise. I'm someone who's about to die and won't be able to see the day the Tranquil Cloud Sect returns to the Northern Domain. I hope that you will carry this Canghua Sword with you. If we can really return to the Northern Domain one day, I hope that you will bring it with you to the Northern Domain. Of course, if you don't despise it, you can also use it for battle. It also counts as a continuation of my life!'

  Lu Yan gestured with one hand, and a green-tasseled sword flew into Ye Yuan's hand.

  The instant the sword was in his hands, Ye Yuan knew how extraordinary it was. It was actually an 8 restrictions spirit artifact!

  Martial artists' weapons were divided into precious artifacts, magic artifacts, and spirit artifacts. They were targeted at Essence Qi Realm martial artists, Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists, and Crystal Formation Realm and above martial artists respectively.

  Precious artifacts and magic artifacts had no restrictions. Only spirit artifacts and above would apply restrictions to increase the power.

  A vast majority of Crystal Formation Realm martial artists' weapons were merely magic artifacts. An 8 restrictions spirit artifact was considered as an excellent weapon even in the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect.

  It was obvious that this sword was Lu Yan's lifeblood spirit artifact!

  If Ye Yuan's conjecture was right, this sword had accompanied Lu Yan at the top of the Nine Heavens Peak for 200 years already. It was his spiritual support.

  Even though it was for Ye Yuan to bring the sword back to the Northern Domain in name, in reality, the last sentence was the crux. He was giving the sword!

  Ye Yuan was also aware of Lu Yan's thoughts. He could see that Ye Yuan's future accomplishments would be anything but ordinary. A tiny little Tranquil Cloud Sect might not be able to hold him.

  It was easy to add flowers to embroidery but tough to send out charcoal in the snow.

  Right now, he was bestowing some small favors to Ye Yuan. He only hoped that Ye Yuan would not forget the Tranquil Cloud Sect in the future.

  Of course, that was one scenario. The footsteps of an expert would not stop because of things like these.

  To martial artists, while the sect was important, the ultimate goal was the boundless great Dao!

  When Ye Yuan m.a.t.u.r.ed, how could a puny little 8 restrictions spirit artifact enter Ye Yuan's eyes?

  Ye Yuan received the Canghua Sword, but his heart was filled with lament.

  Although this Canghua Sword was not some divine artifact, it held extraordinary significance to Lu Yan. He doing something like this was no doubt for the sect.

  Such a person was undoubtedly worthy of respect.

  Right then, Ye Yuan cupped his hands towards Lu Yan and then said, "Rest assured, Senior. This Junior will definitely not let Canghua be covered in dust!"

  Lu Yan stroked his beard and smiled as he said, " Haha! I naturally believe that you have the ability! Alright. Time's up. You should leave now."

  Ye Yuan saluted respectfully, "This Junior takes his leave."

  . . . . . .

  A multi-colored winding road poured down like a magnificent rainbow.

  This was the Rainbow Road!

  In the entire history of the State of Qin's Dan Wu Academy, the Rainbow Road had only appeared a mere five times!

  And this was the sixth time!

  "Quick! Look! It's the Rainbow Road! My God! Ye Yuan, he really succeeded!"

  "A Sixth Level Essence Qi Realm clearing the Nine Heavens Road. This fellow is truly terrifying!"

  "Oh please, he's already at the peak Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm, alright?"

  "Wasn't he at the Sixth Level Essence Qi Realm when he just started challenging it? Furthermore, he relied on his Sixth Level Essence Qi Realm strength to pass through the first stage!"

  "That's true. This fellow is simply inhuman. Now, there's a show to watch. Elder Su's face has been resoundingly slapped by Ye Yuan!"

  "I totally forgot about Elder Su until you mentioned him. Didn't Ye Yuan say that he will take his life within a year? Back then, we only treated it as a joke, but now . . ."

  "Ye Yuan's improvement speed is too outrageous . . . Such a monster should fight it out with those geniuses in the Tranquil Cloud Sect. I'm afraid the Dan Wu Academy . . . already can't keep him."

  "Yeah. At this rate, him surpassing Senior Apprentice Brother Long will probably take at most two to three months."

  Without question, Ye Yuan successfully passing the Nine Heavens Road caused a great stir among the students and instructors.

  He was the first in a thousand years!

  Coming down from the Rainbow Road, Huyan Yong, Feng Ruoqing, and her niece took the lead to welcome Ye Yuan

  "Hahaha! Good boy! You really widened my horizons! Some people plotted and schemed t
o harm you. But now, they are left dusty and dirty in appearance! Now that you cleared the Nine Heavens Road, let's see if those people have anything else to say!"

  Huyan Yong was completely unbridled when he spoke in front of so many people. Even though there was no direct mention of names, anyone could tell that he was talking about Su Yubai.

  However, what he said was right. This time around, Su Yubai had lost a great deal of face.

  After being preoccupied with him for a long time and the schemes by the Elders Council, he did not even manage to play a puny Ye Yuan to death. Instead, he let Ye Yuan cleared the Nine Heavens Road.

  After passing through the Nine Heavens Road, Ye Yuan would possess the status and privilege equivalent to that of a Tranquil Cloud Sect's core disciple. It was no longer possible for Su Yubai to try and openly kill Ye Yuan anymore.

  "Congratulations for passing through the Nine Heavens Road, Ye Yuan." Feng Ruoqing was still so warm and elegant. She only came forth to lightly congratulate.

  "Heh heh. Succeeded thanks to luck." In front of so many people, Ye Yuan did not wish to say too much and only chuckled.

  Feng Zhiroui who was behind Feng Ruoqing had a complicated look as she looked at Ye Yuan.

  Back then, her casual sword strike could make Ye Yuan disconcerted. She did not expect that Ye Yuan could shorten the distance by so much in such a short time.

  Although she was still that little bit stronger than Ye Yuan right now, being caught up or even surpassed by Ye Yuan was something inevitable.

  "Alright. Since Ye Yuan's fine, we'll head back and talk," said Huyan Yong.

  There were too many people here. Clearly, this was not a good place to talk.

  The group returned to Ye Yuan's residence. Ye Yuan inspected Lu-er first and only relaxed after seeing that nothing was wrong with her.

  "Ye Yuan, you seem to be . . . somewhat different." Girls were still sharper on these things. Feng Ruoqing was the first to notice that Ye Yuan was different.

  She discovered that not only did Ye Yuan's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, but his entire being's aura also seemed to have undergone a huge transformation.
