668: This child is destined to have no chance of success
"I can't agree..."
When Ye Chenxiao heard this, his heart felt like it was being squeezed by a large hand, and his fists involuntarily clenched.
He had a very strong intuition that the Bronze Sword was his Opportunity.
If the Bronze Sword chose Gu Qing, he would not only lose a great Opportunity and a great fortune, but he would also be suppressed by Gu Qing, and his life or death would be uncertain.
If the Bronze Sword chose him, then Gu Qing and Luo Li would be the ones to die.
Gu Qing coldly glanced at him, then no longer paid attention, quietly waiting for the Bronze Sword's answer.
For the Bronze Sword to follow him would definitely be its fortune.
Similarly, he would also gain huge benefits.
If the Bronze Sword chose Ye Chenxiao, Gu Qing didn't care. If he refined the Bronze Sword, he would immediately Break through to the ninth Realm, and his foundation would rise.
In fact, Gu Qing was more inclined to refine the Bronze Sword's Spirit to improve his strength, which was more urgent.
However, from a long-term perspective, keeping the Spirit would bring greater benefits. Both had pros and cons, making it difficult for Gu Qing to choose, so he simply gave the right of choice to the Bronze Sword's Spirit.
"Shut up if you don't want to die."
Luo Li said sharply, and the Heavenly Cauldron emitted a divine light, locking onto Ye Chenxiao, as if it was ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
Ye Chenxiao felt a great terror, but he did not retreat a single step. He looked at the Heavenly Cauldron, and a flicker of longing passed through his eyes.
"Luo Li, you've been hiding really well. No wonder I couldn't defeat you."
This Heavenly Cauldron was too powerful and profound. Just by looking at its surface, he deduced that the Heavenly Cauldron contained the complete Heavenly Dao Origin power, capable of melting all methods and unifying all Dao.
At the same time, it could borrow from heaven and earth, drawing the power of heaven and earth for its own use.
If he could obtain the Heavenly Cauldron, he would definitely be stronger than Luo Li, invincible in this era, suppressing the destiny of a generation.
And Gu Qing, he must also have a supreme treasure on him.
"Hehe!"
In response, Luo Li let out two cold laughs, her beautiful eyes full of contempt.
From the moment Ye Chenxiao said those words, she concluded that Ye Chenxiao was a good-for-nothing, unable to reach the peak of the Great Dao.
Magic Treasures were good and had infinite uses, but Magic Treasures were ultimately Magic Treasures. The true strong person was powerful in themselves, not in Magic Treasures.
Ye Chenxiao couldn't even see this point, blinded by powerful Magic Treasures, destined to have no connection with the Great Dao, and his achievements in life would be limited.
"Are you sure?" The Bronze Sword's Spirit looked at Ye Chenxiao, its voice as bland as plain water, making it impossible to discern its emotions.
It also deeply understood this principle. Its master was a true strong person, possessing supreme treasures, but never relying on Magic Treasures.
Magic Treasures were ultimately external objects; being powerful in oneself was true power.
Its master used Magic Treasures to continuously strengthen himself, creating unparalleled Sword Dao, displaying astonishing talent, and becoming the most dazzling Prodigy of his time.
Unfortunately, when the time comes, heaven and earth work together; when the momentum goes, heroes are not free.
Even though its master's combat power was Heaven-Defying and his talent unparalleled, he could not resist destiny.
During the three tribulations and five declines, he was besieged by human tribulations and perished here, transforming into a Forbidden Ground.
It had waited here for countless years, only to find a successor for its master, to inherit the old master's Legacy.
As soon as these three entered the Valley of Death, it noticed them.
After all, the foundations of the three were the strongest it had seen in countless years.
Especially Gu Qing, his foundation had already far surpassed that of its old master.
It had no doubt that, given time, Gu Qing would prove the Dao as a Chaos Dominator God.
Next was Luo Li.
However, Luo Li did not cultivate the Sword Dao, and her own Dao was also different from its master's Dao, so it immediately excluded Luo Li.
Ye Chenxiao, on the other hand, was very suitable for the Legacy, and both came from the Star Dao Lineage.
Giving the Legacy to Ye Chenxiao would be considered from the same sect, allowing Ye Chenxiao to pass on the Legacy and make it flourish.
Therefore, its most favored successor was Ye Chenxiao.
But upon hearing Ye Chenxiao's words, it was greatly disappointed.
If one couldn't even distinguish between external objects and oneself, how could one become a true strong person?
"Senior!"
Ye Chenxiao's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
He knew very well the standards of strong individuals for choosing Disciples; pursuing the trivial while neglecting the essential was a great taboo.
In fact, Ye Chenxiao had always believed that being strong in oneself was true strength, and had always considered treasures to be external objects.
Therefore, he had always believed that he possessed an invincible Dao Heart.
However, after being defeated by Luo Li and seeing a supreme treasure like the Heavenly Cauldron, his mind was temporarily clouded.
If he didn't find a way to remedy this and reverse the Bronze Sword's Spirit's impression of him, there would be no hope for it to choose him as its master.
Ye Chenxiao's thoughts raced, and he said solemnly, "Senior, although external objects are external objects and one should not rely on them too much, if there is no assistance from external objects, how can one speak of the Great Dao?"
"Oh, then you think, is the treasure important, or is oneself important? If you had this Heavenly Cauldron, could you truly defeat her?"
Although the Bronze Sword's Spirit was a Spirit and had no emotions or desires, not understanding human treachery, it was not so easily fooled.
"Naturally, oneself is important."
Ye Chenxiao replied without hesitation, "As the saying goes, to forge iron, one must be strong oneself. If one does not have sufficient Cultivation, even with a Heaven-Defying Magic Treasure, it cannot be fully utilized."
"If I can obtain the Heavenly Cauldron, I will definitely be able to melt all methods into one, melt the supreme Dao Fruit, and slay Luo Li in the blink of an eye."
"What a joke!"
Luo Li's expression turned cold, and killing intent appeared in her eyes.
Ye Chenxiao was truly boastful. Not to mention that she obtained the Heavenly Cauldron after defeating Ye Chenxiao, even without the Heavenly Cauldron, and even if Ye Chenxiao obtained the Heavenly Cauldron, she could still defeat Ye Chenxiao.
Dao Fruit is Dao Fruit, and Divine Ability is Divine Ability.
Indeed, the stronger the Dao Fruit, the more powerful Divine Abilities one can comprehend.
For example, Gu Qing's Dao Fruit is the Chaos Immeasurable Dao Fruit, allowing him to comprehend Immeasurable Divine Abilities, making him unparalleled.
Although she was not as good as Gu Qing, she was definitely not weak.
Her Divine Abilities were all comprehended from her Dao methods; Dao methods naturally manifest Divine Abilities, allowing her to perfectly exert her full strength.
And Ye Chenxiao?
Luo Li had fought him for several years and had long since understood Ye Chenxiao's true capabilities.
Ye Chenxiao's Divine Abilities had nothing to do with his Dao methods; they were all borrowed.
However, Ye Chenxiao's Divine Abilities were indeed powerful, and when encountering fellow Cultivators of the same Realm who also borrowed Divine Abilities, he could naturally be invincible.
But when encountering a strong person who had forged their own Dao and created their own Divine Ability Cultivation Technique, Ye Chenxiao was simply not worth mentioning.
The reason she fought Ye Chenxiao for so long back then was not because her strength was similar to Ye Chenxiao's, but because she was wary of Ye Chenxiao's identity and dared not kill him.
Furthermore, she wanted to ascertain Ye Chenxiao's true capabilities and at the same time hone her Divine Abilities, which was why the battle lasted for several years.
If it weren't for the above considerations, she could have defeated Ye Chenxiao in a few moves.
Numerous Divine Abilities flashed through her mind, and Luo Li cupped her hands towards the Bronze Sword in a salute.
"Senior, please do not be deceived by this shameless scoundrel."
"All external objects are false. It is because he has more powerful external objects that he is not troubled by them. Now that he sees external objects more profound and powerful than his own, he immediately reveals his true nature."
"As for his so-called invincible Dao Heart, it is even more vulnerable. He thinks he is invincible after defeating a few ants, which is even more ridiculous than a frog in a well."
"Moreover, I presume his true Origins cannot be hidden from Senior, can they?"
"This Junior dares to assert that this child is destined to have no connection with the Great Dao."
"Luo Li..." Hearing this, Ye Chenxiao's eyes spat fire, and killing intent blazed in his heart.
He was an invincible Sword Cultivator who swept all before him, and in the entire Origin Continent, he was a Prodigy-like existence, revered and admired by countless Prodigies.
Someone as powerful as him was actually belittled by Luo Li to be utterly worthless.
To say he had no connection with the Great Dao was simply the most vicious curse against him.
Ye Chenxiao wished he could tear Luo Li into ten thousand pieces.
Unfortunately, his strength did not allow it.
Ye Chenxiao took a deep breath and said to the Bronze Sword, "Senior, please do not believe Luo Li. Luo Li is insidious and cunning, ruthless and malicious, stopping at nothing to achieve her goals."
"My ability to become a Disciple of the Star Saint Mother is already enough to prove my talent."
The Bronze Sword's Spirit remained silent.
It had indeed seen Ye Chenxiao's true Origins clearly.
Originally, it was choosing the lesser of two evils, giving up Gu Qing for Ye Chenxiao, simply because Ye Chenxiao was a successor of the Star Dao Lineage.
And he was also a Disciple of the Star Saint Mother, plus Ye Chenxiao himself was not bad, so it naturally leaned more towards Ye Chenxiao.
Before Luo Li spoke, it hadn't thought in this direction, but now, after being reminded, its inner resolve wavered again.
