Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao

Chapter 1634 - 143: Intelligent Heavenly Road (Part 2)

"Fearless of death! Which means there is no harm until one’s soul energy is insufficient to support the training--hiss, if truly such a capability exists, then this heavenly road can not only temper the soul but also elevate one’s will and determination to a terrifying level!"

"This is indeed a very frightening and formidable way of training!"

"If what Zhou Yan said is true, then our Heavenly Mechanism Sect will surely be envied by many sects in the future, and the trial on the Path of Heavenly Mechanism is an innovative change!"

"Indeed, just unsure to what extent Zhou Yan can achieve this effect! And whether the Path of Heavenly Mechanism is as shocking as the previous one!"

...

Suddenly, the scene which hardly had any cultivators paying attention, turned extremely heated.

Evidently, merely narrating the capabilities and effects of this Path of Heavenly Mechanism has already caused a true sensation!

Yes, a sensation!

Even if some believe Zhou Yan lacks the capability to accomplish this, the emergence of such a heavenly road brings immense anticipation to everyone present!

"Sect Master, you mean to say, everyone present has the qualification to participate? That what you mentioned is true, can we experience it soon?"

Suddenly, a small-statured elder grasped the situation, immediately stood up with a face showing uncertainty and doubt.

"Yes, Elder Zhou."

"Ah--this, how is that possible! If this can be achieved, doesn’t it mean, doesn’t it mean--"

After receiving Zhuge Qiyan’s confirmation, Elder Zhou’s face showed extreme shock, clearly finding it overwhelmingly unbelievable.

For that would equate to a terrifying scene akin to Creating Dao, how could it possibly be real!

If true, doesn’t it suggest Zhou Yan could even be comparable to the Ancestor of Creating Dao?

If true, doesn’t it imply that some Holy Ancestors in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect might not even match up to Zhou Yan?

If true, doesn’t it signify that Zhou Yan has not only altered the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road, but elevated it to a high-end transformation on this basis?

As if transforming an ordinary weapon into a formidable Holy Weapon!

After Elder Zhou said this, all elders, hall masters, and some protectors began to ponder this, connecting everything Zhuge Qiyan Sect Master initially said, they all realized this.

Suddenly, a chorus of gasps sounded, a wave of sucking in cold air echoed.

"This--too idealized!"

"The idea is excellent, but the feasibility is almost like a fantasy from Arabian Nights!"

"A fool’s dream, if achievable, it is the pinnacle of Heavenly Dao, an action that could shock the ancients."

...

Again, the scene was stirred into chaos.

This time, no one underestimated Zhou Yan.

Regardless of whether Zhou Yan can achieve it, at least, just having such a notion renders everyone immensely impressed and deeply shocked.

How could someone with such visions be ordinary?

Furthermore, by no means is the current Zhou Yan not persuasive in various aspects, despite his rebellious, defiant nature, everyone believes geniuses possess some sharp edges and didn’t mind much.

They may not like Zhou Yan but won’t deny his talent and genius ability.

Meanwhile, amid the chaos, Zhuge Qiyan confidently said: "Actually, I haven’t experienced it, but someone has, so this matter is true, and not mere delusion."

Saying this, Zhuge Qiyan suddenly glanced at Zhuge Xiye, saying: "Xi Ye, please explain the situation to all the Elders, Hall Masters, and Protectors."

Zhuge Xiye did not directly agree, only nodded slightly to Zhuge Qiyan, then looked at everyone.

At this moment, everyone’s interest was piqued, thus everyone’s attention was on Zhuge Xiye.

Zhuge Xiye, greatly admired by all elders, hall masters, protectors, and even disciples, hence her words hold substantial validation.

However, Zhuge Xiye didn’t affirm or deny anything directly, but rather took a deep breath, said seriously: "Whatever I say might seem pale because the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road not only hasn’t deteriorated, but instead has transformed into something akin to a real world."

"Though death inside doesn’t affect us, Senior Brother Zhou Yan also mentioned that if one truly believes they’re dead, then in reality, the soul could die."

"Because that’s a strong will suggestion, if so, in reality, one’s soul would act like an empowered will, declaring oneself dead."

"Thus, inevitable death, equivalently self-transformation."

"Still, Senior Brother Zhou Yan says, if one dies in this manner, that is a manifestation of insufficient capability, even if not dying in the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road, one would certainly die in future."

Zhuge Xiye paused after speaking.

At this moment, many showed heavy expressions.

The scene Zhuge Xiye described seemed incredulous, though she never lies, yet this instance stirred skepticism.

Because the statement sounded too absurd, though highly mystical, yet seemed overly presumptive.

Zhuge Xiye seemed aware of the potential reactions, thus remained indifferent, instead continued: "I know you don’t believe, but I can’t guarantee anything, for I think any language pales in contrast to the splendor and mystique of the heavenly road."

"And those I’ve mentioned are points needing caution, every disciple, prior to entry, must first achieve no thought, no distraction, repeatedly reminding oneself inwardly, the heavenly road is false, false, not genuine!"

"Or, upon facing death, one shouldn’t cling too much, what should be let go should be abandoned, excessive attachment leads to obsessions, with obsessions comes regret, immense regret leads one to strongly feel they are dead!"

"These words, I’ll repeat once more, whether believed or not, all must remember!"

"After all, even if without any danger, caution is never wrong! And once everyone completes the assessment, they’ll gain profound understanding."

"As for specific descriptions, there’s no need, let’s all experience it together."

Zhuge Xiye finished, eyes settled on Zhuge Qiyan.

This time she didn’t directly follow Zhuge Qiyan’s words, which gave Zhuge Xiye slight unease and guilt.

Yet Zhuge Xiye harbors no regrets since such a great and shocking road for training, if narrated once beforehand, it seems to diminish the meaning of their training.

Though the truth might not necessarily be this, yet Zhuge Xiye felt so.

But, Zhuge Qiyan not only expressed no blame but even showed appreciation in her gaze, seemingly gratified that Zhuge Xiye now thinks independently and makes her own decisions.

As Zhuge Xiye interpreted Zhuge Qiyan’s praising gaze, she felt immediate warmth in her heart.

Simultaneously, she thought about Zhou Yan who caused all this.

For a moment, she was somewhat dazed again.

Indeed, now, she realized she’s utterly mesmerized by Zhou Yan.

Zhuge Xiye regained her thoughts, couldn’t help but sigh, this scene was hardly hidden from Zhuge Qiyan’s sight.

She too was momentarily taken aback, then similarly sighed inexplicably.

At this point, the Path of Heavenly Mechanism has been improved and stabilized significantly, reaching the moment for initiating the first assessment, therefore Zhuge Qiyan didn’t say much more, rather declared: "The time has come, everyone prepare, let’s enter together!"
