923 Different Paths
“Thank you for clearing my doubts, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder.”
Lin Feng bowed to Perfected Lord Sword Wielder, but Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not accept it. Instead, he said indifferently, “There’s no need to thank me. I’m grateful to you on behalf of countless cultivators in Empyrean City. I’ve lived in Empyrean City since I was young. Of all the Perfected Lords, I am the youngest, but I grew step by step in the Empyrean City. My parents, family, and teacher all died to Chaotic dire beasts. You killed four Chaotic spirit beasts and destroyed the four Chaotic dire beast races. I should be the one thanking you.”
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder was rather frank. He was an ascetic cultivator, and could not be more candid.
“However, there’s one thing I hope Perfected Lord Lin will agree to.”
“What is it?”
“I’d like to see your perfected spirit martial arts!”
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder was eager to give it a try, and a trace of battle intent appeared in his eyes. Even though Lin Feng had displayed his prowess after developing a perfected spirit, and even killed four Chaotic spirit beasts, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder was still unafraid and eager to spar.
This was a true ascetic cultivator. Lin Feng could see the purity in the eyes of the Perfected Lord Sword Wielder. He was the kind of pure cultivator who would try his best to fight powerful opponents.
“All right, I respectfully accept your request. I’ll spar with you, Perfected Lord.”
Lin Feng did not refuse Perfected Lord Sword Wielder. After all, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder had helped him so much. Naturally, he had to satisfy Perfected Lord Sword Wielder’s request. Moreover, it was just a spar.
“This way, please.”
Lin Feng and Perfected Lord Sword Wielder went to the manor, which was protected by an array. This kind of array was an immobile array. It was completely different from the Inescapable Net Array. It relied on the power of heaven and earth, and Chaotic energy.
Strictly speaking, the Inescapable Net Array or the Minor Dipper Demon Subduing Array were actually battle arrays.
Battle arrays were very different. There was no lack of arrays on the Hallowed Beast Continent, but there was not a single battle array. Lin Feng had brought them the Minor Dipper Demon Subduing Array and the Inescapable Net Array.
The two of them stood in the void, Perfected Lord Sword Wielding a long sword in his hand, looking incomparably focused.
“Perfected Lord Lin, I can’t hold back in battle, so please pay attention. Please use your full strength. If I die, so be it.”
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder’s attitude was firm. This did not seem to be a spar, but a life-or-death battle.
Lin Feng was also rather helpless. This was what ascetic cultivators were like. They believed that cultivation was everything. In fact, cultivation was even more important than their lives. If they could attain enlightenment, even dying in the next moment would be worth it. Such was how these ascetic cultivators were like.
“I definitely won’t disappoint you, Perfected Lord.”
Lin Feng’s expression was also solemn. Perfected Lord Sword Wielder could do whatever it took, but Lin Feng did not need to. He could even control the battle, because he was much stronger than Perfected Lord Sword Wielder.
Swish.
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder attacked. He even attacked instantly without any warning.
The biting cold sword aura tore through the sky and instantly locked onto Lin Feng, making even Lin Feng feel a faint sense of danger. This was the first time Lin Feng had fought a Perfected Lord. Hence, he also wanted to see the abilities of another Perfected Lord.
This was the path of Perfected Lord Sword Wielder, the way of the sword!
Actually, the way of the sword did not belong to any Chaotic Rules. If one had to insist on it, perhaps some kind of Chaotic Rules had the same effect as the way of the sword. However, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder had attained a perfected spirit through the way of the sword.
His perfected spirit was born for the sword, and had accompanied the sword for his entire life. In fact, up until now, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder could entirely choose to comprehend all kinds of other Chaotic Rules and develop divine powers. This was the normal path of cultivation for the perfected spirit realm.
However, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not. He still adhered to the principle of breaking all techniques with a single strike of the sword.
This strike was already very terrifying, but it was far from reaching the limit. It was just like Lin Feng’s six forms of Heaven and Earth Seal, which would not have reached its limit by the fifth form.
However, no matter how strong it was, one could already see the limit. No matter how strong the way of the sword was, it was nothing compared to divine abilities. It might not even be stronger than the sixth form of Lin Feng’s Heaven and Earth Seal.
“Heaven Turning Seal!”
Lin Feng struck out with his palm. He had indeed used all his strength in this palm strike. When unleashing the Heaven Turning Seal with his perfected spirit, it was as if the world was really turned upside down, as if a huge bowl was pressed down.
That sharp and powerful sword appeared so weak and insignificant before the Heaven Turning Seal.
Thud.
Lin Feng’s Heaven Turning Seal slammed down hard. The sword aura that seemed to be able to slice through the sky previously actually shattered inch by inch, and was directly crushed by Lin Feng’s Heaven Turning Seal.
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder’s entire body shook. At the last moment, Lin Feng retracted the power of the Heaven Turning Seal. The terrifying power in the void dissipated, as if it had never existed.
“I’ve lost.”
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not say anything else. He only said the words indifferently, and even his tone was very calm. He was not despondent, discouraged, or even surprised.
It was this calm tone that made Lin Feng frown.
He could not help but ask, “Perfected Lord Sword Wielder, have you not seen the limit of the way of the sword?”
“Then why do you still insist on cultivating the way of the sword?”
“That’s a part of my life. Or rather, it’s a part of my perfected spirit. My perfected spirit has already integrated into the way of the sword, and is indistinguishable from the way of the sword. Without the way of the sword, perhaps I would no longer be myself.”
Lin Feng understood now. He understood completely. This was a sincere heart of a cultivator, who was incomparably sincere in the way of the sword. The perfected spirit of Perfected Lord Sword Wielder had long been integrated into the way of the sword, and was indistinguishable from the way of the sword.
Without the way of the sword, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder would no longer be Perfected Lord Sword Wielder. Then, his perfected spirit would dissipate.
Lin Feng had never even heard of such a sincere cultivator, let alone met one.
“Your attainments in martial arts are very, very profound. That was just your first form, right?”
“That’s right, it’s the first form, called the Heaven Turning Seal.”
Lin Feng explained the six forms of the Heaven and Earth Seal one by one. Every form of the first five forms could be considered a perfected spirit martial art if activated with a perfected spirit. Every form, if separated, was a perfected spirit martial art.
Combining the five forms would give rise to the sixth form, Terminus!
This was the limit of martial arts. Be it Chaotic martial arts or perfected spirit martial arts, these were all the limit. It was no longer possible to deduce the seventh form.
“It’s a pity that my martial arts have already reached the limit. There’s no path ahead.”
“If there’s no path, I’ll work hard to forge my own path!”
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder’s expression was resolute. Such was the conviction in his heart. This was a path he had to take, even if there was no path. This was also his principle.

However, Lin Feng smiled and said, “This is your principle, not mine! If there’s no path ahead, and there’s even a dead end, I won’t continue. I’ll turn back and see if there are any other paths. There are so many paths in this world. Since there are other paths, why take a dead end?”
Lin Feng’s path was to reach the top. He did not just want to become a perfected spirit, but also an indestructible Hallowed Venerable!
If there was clearly a path, Lin Feng would not take a dead end.
Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not say anything else. He had his own path, and Lin Feng had his own path. There was no right or wrong.
All that was left was to persevere in his own path, and keep going!
