110: The Heaven-Slaying Sword appears in the ancient land.

Inside the Sword Realm, silence instantly fell.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

The Guardian Sword Intent left by that ancient mighty figure was actually so overbearing!

The remaining three Limitless Sword Sect Disciples turned pale, no longer daring to make any moves, and honestly began to comprehend the stone steles before them.

Lin Hao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, struggled to stand up, and respectfully bowed to the old man's phantom.

He understood that if it weren't for the Guardian Sword Intent's intervention, even if he could have withstood the direct clash with Absolute Shadow just now, he would have been severely injured.

This rule, to some extent, protected him, who had a lower cultivation.

He no longer hesitated, reseated himself cross-legged before the dark gold stone stele, composed his mind, and fully communicated with the supreme Sword Intent contained within the stele.

Time passed bit by bit.

Ye Chen was the first to achieve a Breakthrough; the power-type sword skill stone stele before him shone brightly, and a Sword Dao rune containing the ultimate essence of power merged into his glabella. His vital Qi and Sword Intent subtly intertwined, and his aura surged by a significant margin!

Immediately after, Lin Yun activated the Star Sword Stele, drawing in vast Star Power for Body Tempering.

Phoenix Spirit's Undying Phoenix Flame resonated with the Fire Sword Stele, allowing her to comprehend a Sky-Burning Sword Art.

Lin Feng deduced his own embryonic form of Sword Dao from the blank stone stele.

Yang Yan and Moon Radiance combined their efforts, integrating the Yin and Yang Sword Stele's Legacy into their own Chaos Dao.

As for Lin Hao, he remained immersed in the overbearing Sword Intent of the dark gold stone stele, which sought to sever everything. His surrounding Sword Qi grew increasingly potent and pure.

Finally, when the other six had all received their respective Legacies and turned their gazes to the center, Lin Hao suddenly opened his eyes!

There was nothing else in his eyes, only that sword!

That sword that severs Karma, shatters Reincarnation, and reigns supreme!

"I understand."

He murmured softly, then pointed his fingers like a sword and slowly traced them across the dark gold stone stele.

There was no earth-shattering commotion, but the dark gold stone stele emitted a joyful hum. All the engraved runes on it instantly lit up, finally transforming into a condensed, ultimate dark gold stream of light that merged into Lin Hao's glabella!

Boom!

Lin Hao's aura erupted, and his cultivation instantly broke through to the Xiaoyao Realm Second Level!

More importantly, he had completely received the Legacy of this core stone stele—the Severing Heavenly Dao Sword!

Although it was only a partial true meaning, its power already far surpassed any sword art he had previously mastered!

At the same time, the entire Sword Realm began to tremble, and the light from all the stone steles converged towards Lin Hao.

He had gained the recognition of the Immortal Cave's core Legacy!

A gate of light slowly opened in the center of the Sword Realm. It was the path to the deepest part of the Immortal Cave, where the ultimate Legacy of this ancient Sword Dao mighty figure was stored.

Lin Hao stood up, looked at his brothers and sisters beside him, and a smile appeared on his face.

"We won."

Outside the Immortal Cave, when Absolute Shadow and another Disciple were embarrassingly expelled, and the gate of light finally opened for the Seven Saints of the Lin Clan, the outcome was already clear.

Saint King Jian Wuya's face was so gloomy it could drip water. He stared intently at Lin Hao's figure in the light screen, especially when he felt the nascent, heart-palpitating Severing Heaven Sword Intent emanating from Lin Hao, his fury burned even brighter.

He lost!

He lost a precious ancient Sword Dao Immortal Cave, lost the Limitless Sword Sect's exploration rights in the Meteorite Sea, and even lost face!

Lin Dao calmly looked at him: "The wager has been set, Fellow Daoist Jian Wuya, please proceed."

Saint King Jian Wuya's chest heaved violently, and finally, he squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "Let's go!"

He swept his sleeve, and taking his Disciples, he transformed into a sword light and departed without looking back, his figure filled with unwillingness and humiliation.

Meanwhile, the surrounding forces observing now looked at the Lin Clan, especially the Seven Saint Sons who emerged from the Immortal Cave with improved auras, with completely different eyes.

The Seven Saints of the Lin Clan, in the ancient Sword Dao Immortal Cave, overpowered the Limitless Sword Sect, seized the core Legacy, the Severing Heavenly Dao Sword, and forced Saint King Jian Wuya to abide by the wager, not to set foot in the Meteorite Sea for ten thousand years.

Many scattered forces or small and medium-sized clans, when encountering Lin Clan disciples, mostly chose to retreat or cooperate, not daring to easily provoke them.

The Lin Clan also took this Opportunity to solidify its influence in Qingzhou and several surrounding states, and successfully occupied several newly discovered Secret Realms and resource points containing special Laws.

Lin Clan Small World, Core Secret Realm.

The seven members of the Lin Clan verified the Legacy obtained from the Sword Dao Immortal Cave with their own paths, digesting and absorbing it, steadily improving their cultivation.

Lin Dao, meanwhile, sat in the center, consolidating his Saint King Realm First Level cultivation while closely monitoring the dynamics of the entire nascent ancient realm with his Divine Thought.

The continental Fusion was largely complete, and the new geographical pattern was initially stable.

With the Central Divine Continent as the core, it bordered the Ten Thousand Thunder Marshland (Thunder Emperor Palace) to the east, the Land of Ultimate Bliss (Great Brahma Pure Land) and the Nine Nether Blood Sea (Netherworld Hells) to the west, the Ethereal Immortal Realm (Yaoguang Immortal Domain) and the Vast Demon Domain (Ten Thousand Demon Ancestral Court) to the south, and the Limitless Sword Domain (Limitless Sword Sect) to the north.

The territories of the major forces were intertwined like dog's teeth, with constant friction at the borders and frequent small-scale conflicts, but overall, a delicate balance was maintained, as if all were accumulating strength, waiting for something.

On this day, Lin Dao was comprehending the mysteries of the Saint King Realm in the Chaos Emperor Scripture, attempting to condense his own "Saint King Dao Fruit," when he suddenly felt something and opened his eyes.

His gaze penetrated the Secret Realm's barrier, looking towards a certain area in the south where the Ethereal Immortal Realm and the Vast Demon Domain met.

There, space fluctuations were unusually intense, and an ancient, vast, even slightly sorrowful and unyielding aura, far exceeding that of an ordinary Secret Realm's emergence, was slowly seeping out from the depths of the Void Realm.

"This aura... it's not an ordinary Secret Realm, but rather... like a fragment of some ancient battlefield, or a sealed... ruin?" Lin Dao frowned slightly.

He could feel that the Opportunity and danger contained in thisThe land that is about to appear (place about to appear) would likely far surpass the previous Sword Dao Immortal Cave.

Almost at the same time, the top powerhouses of various forces in the nascent ancient realm also sensed the anomaly in the south.

"There's a change in the south!"

"Such an ancient aura! Definitely not something from recent times!"

"It might be the appearance of an important ancient land!"

"Quickly send people to investigate!"

Commands were issued from the various great imperial clans, and countless Cultivators, like sharks smelling blood, surged from all directions towards the source of that aura.

Lin Dao pondered for a moment, then sent a voice transmission to summon Acting Clan Head Lin Xuan and the Seven Saint Sons.

"There's an anomaly in the south; a significant ruin is about to appear, and its level might be extremely high, even involving ancient secrets," Lin Dao said directly. "This time, I need to go personally to investigate.

Within the Lin Clan, Lin Xuan will preside, and the Seven Saint Sons will accompany me."

"Old Ancestor, you're going personally?

Is it too risky?" Lin Xuan was a little worried.

That aura made even him feel a tremor in his heart.

"It's fine.

Such an Opportunity cannot be missed.

Moreover, I have a premonition that the appearance of this ruin will likely stir up true storms," Lin Dao's gaze was profound. "Clan matters are entrusted to your full discretion. Activate the grand formation and guard the entrance."

"Yes!" Lin Xuan bowed and accepted the command.

The seven members of the Lin Clan, on the other hand, were invigorated. To be able to act with the Old Ancestor and explore such a high-level ruin was a rare training Opportunity for them.

A moment later, Lin Dao, accompanied by the Seven Saint Sons, stepped out of the Lin Clan Small World, transforming into an invisible stream of light, and swiftly headed south.

With his Saint King Realm speed and control over space, in just half a day, he had already reached the edge of that area.
