20: Ye Chuxue's whereabouts!

As you Cultivated the Supreme Void Sword Art, your arrival at Sword Mountain caused all the swords on the entire mountain to resonate.

At this moment, everyone present was drawn by the commotion you caused; they didn't know why this was happening.

"What in the world happened? Could it be that Xiao Lingtian obtained that immortal sword?"

"I think it's very possible. Xiao Lingtian has the highest Sword Dao intent among this generation in Azure Cloud Sect."

You listened to the discussions of the surrounding people, silently noting down the name Xiao Lingtian, preparing to kill him first.

You disguised yourself and blended into the camp of the Three Great Sects' Disciples, planning to first seize the treasures and then kill this group of people.

Through the people around you, you learned that this Sword Mountain had a total of ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-something steps.

Only by ascending to the highest step and passing the assessment could one gain the immortal sword's recognition.

If you didn't reach the highest level, the other swords in Sword Mountain would also recognize you based on the floor you reached.

You looked at everything before you and felt a bit tragic!

This was the Legacy left to humanity by the former great Sect, the Supreme Void Sword Sect, but unexpectedly it had now been occupied by Weird Insects.

If the ancestors of the Supreme Void Sword Sect knew of the current situation, who knows what they would think.

You walked alone on the stairs leading to the mountain peak, feeling no pressure at all.

You even suspected that those people earlier were lying to you, but soon you discovered an anomaly.

As you climbed higher and higher, every time you surpassed someone, you would notice something unusual about their body.

Conversely, the way others looked at you was as if they had seen a ghost.

"Holy crap! Who is this person? He seems completely unaffected by the surrounding Sword Qi!"

"Could this be another Xiao Lingtian?"

"No... his composure seems even more formidable than Xiao Lingtian's."

In their eyes, you seemed to be an even more terrifying existence than Xiao Lingtian.

As you continuously ascended, all the swords on the entire Sword Mountain emitted sword cries.

After an unknown period, you finally saw the mountain peak.

At this point, there were very few people before you, only three: two males and one female.

Through their talismans, you knew that Xiao Lingtian of the Azure Cloud Sect was at the very top, and Jun Moxiao of the Wanmo Sect was a few levels below.

The other woman was from Fenglei, and from previous conversations, you learned her name was Luo Xiaoyu.

Just like that, under the shocked gazes of the three, you effortlessly stepped onto the top level.

Upon entering the top level, you saw a Formation before you, and in the center of the Formation was a rust-stained sword.

For a moment, you didn't know how to retrieve this sword; it was clearly impossible for you to break the Formation, as you knew nothing about Formations.

In desperation, you tried silently reciting the incantation of the Supreme Void Sword Art: "Control the sword with intent, like a star guiding the moon..."

The next second, the sword in the Formation seemed to resonate with you, trembling incessantly!

Then, the iron sword in the Formation flew directly into your hand, resting quietly, and only then did you realize it was a broken sword.

Xiao Lingtian, seeing this from the side, was filled with displeasure.

In his opinion, he was clearly the first to climb to the mountain peak, and this sword clearly belonged to him.

"Brat, you're courting death!"

Although Xiao Lingtian was furious at this moment, he suppressed his inner rage and asked.

"Brat, who exactly are you? Why don't I remember someone like you in the Azure Cloud Sect?"

Upon hearing Xiao Lingtian's words, you laughed heartily.

The moment you obtained the broken sword, you learned some information.

This sword was called Great Void Sword; it was an immortal sword when it fought alongside Old Ancestor Taixu, but unfortunately, it broke during a later battle.

However, even as a broken sword, it still contained the lingering Qi of an immortal sword.

"Who am I? I am here to collect you all!"

As soon as your voice fell, the expression on your face began to transform, finally returning to your original appearance.

"You are Su Ming of the Demonic Path?"

Xiao Lingtian was the first to react upon seeing your appearance.

He knew everything that happened in the Azure Cloud Sect back then, and he also knew that the Qingyun Sect Master had used a great Divine Ability to see the true face of the murderer.

That murderer looked exactly like you before him.

As Xiao Lingtian spoke, Jun Moxiao and Luo Xiaoyu's faces also showed a hint of shock.

Because the Great Void Sword had been pulled out by you, the entire Sword Mountain's pressure completely vanished.

Jun Moxiao and Xiao Lingtian instantly erupted with their Core Formation Great Perfection cultivation, rushing towards you to kill you.

You calmly used the Great Void Art to evade the attack, then flashed behind Xiao Lingtian and, before he could react, pierced him to death with a single strike of the Great Void Sword.

Jun Moxiao saw that Xiao Lingtian had no power to resist in your hands, and he instinctively fled.

You unleashed the Great Void Art again, crippling Jun Moxiao's cultivation with a single sword strike, then used Soul Search Art.

To your disappointment, even though Jun Moxiao was a Genius of the Wanmo Sect, the information he knew was no different from that of an ordinary Disciple.

After your disappointment, you turned your gaze to Luo Xiaoyu.

The Great Void Art was cast again, and just as you were about to kill her, Luo Xiaoyu spoke.

"Wait, Su Ming! I am an Awakened One, and like you, I am human!"

Upon hearing this, your brows furrowed, and the Great Void Sword in your hand immediately stopped at her neck.

"How do you prove it? If you can't give me convincing evidence, I'll have to kill you!"

"I... I can prove it!"

Then Luo Xiaoyu showed you her Primordial Spirit!

"Look, this is my Primordial Spirit! Those who are parasitized by Weird Insects cannot manifest their own Primordial Spirit; their Primordial Spirits are all grotesque!"

You were clearly somewhat surprised to hear this, as you hadn't known how to distinguish between humans and Weird Insects before.

You only knew that Weird Insects could not enter ruins like the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm and would suffer severe Dao injuries when they Breakthrough.

"Why should I believe you?"

Although the reason she gave was very convincing, you did not easily believe her.

In your opinion, when it came to matters concerning Weird Insects, you would rather kill the wrong person than let one go easily.

"Are you still an Awakened One? You don't even know this?"

Under your icy gaze, Luo Xiaoyu slowly spoke a name.

"Wait! I know Ye Chuxue!"

Indeed, upon hearing her say she knew Ye Chuxue, you slowly lowered the Great Void Sword in your hand.

"You know Ye Chuxue? Where is she now?"

"Her... her situation is a bit grim now. She was chased after a Breakthrough before her injuries had recovered, resulting in very severe injuries."

"Later, I arranged for her to hide on a secluded small island between Qingzhou and Zhongzhou."
