The Sovereign's Ascension

Chapter 2303 - Nirvana Dao!

“If I want to grasp Nirvana Dao, I must find it in the Sword of the Beginning…” Lin Yun soon had a plan. He had about six days before the sky turned dark in the outside world.

Lin Yun planned to use two days to consolidate his divine physique and sword canons before spending the remaining time on Sword of the Beginning. He was already so familiar with it that he couldn’t improve it further.

The first was the Azure Dragon Divine Physique, where he was only half a step from condensing the divine rune. When the divine rune was formed, he would progress to the next step and form the complete dragon’s soul.

The Azure Dragon Divine Rune had nine stages, mainly consisting of the Dragon’s Body, Dragon’s Soul, and Dragon’s Aura. He couldn’t make a breakthrough in the Great Profound Sword Canon anytime soon and he had already reached the ninth stage with the Dragon-Phoenix World Annihilating Sword Canon, reaching a bottleneck.

“It’s still a little messy. It would be good if I could master them and turn them into a cultivation technique,” Lin Yun muttered. He couldn’t help laughing when he was done speaking. These were dragon spirit martial techniques from ancient times, and one could become a deity if the Heavenly Path was still around. But if he wanted to master them completely, it would be something not even an ancient deity could accomplish.

“Let’s stabilize my foundation before grasping Nirvana Dao!” Lin Yun soon submerged himself into his cultivation.

When two days passed, a dragon’s roar could be heard from beneath the Phoenix Tree. Lin Yun gave off a terrifying dragon aura with a dragon’s soul gradually forming in his sea of consciousness.

At the same time, there was a rune on his chest that was filled with a violent beauty. When Lin Yun clenched his fist, a terrifying power spread from the Azure Dragon Divine Rune to his five fingers. But the dragon’s soul was even more terrifying since it could grow with the number of divine runes.

It would be easier for him to face those who were proficient in using mental energy in the future. This meant that Heavenly Spiritualists were less threatening to him now. But his excitement was short-lived and Lin Yun soon tossed it to the back of his mind. He clenched his fist, and muttered, “Nirvana Dao!”

While Lin Yun was focused on his cultivation, the Last Sky Great Saint and two Saint Sovereigns were gathered in a luxurious palace, respectfully standing before a person. That person sat on a phoenix throne, looking young, and gave off a noble air.

This person wore a white robe that was decorated with golden threads and a crown. This person was the master of Divine Phoenix Mountain. After hearing the report from the Great Saint and two Saint Sovereigns, he said, “So, you guys have acknowledged his strength?”

“Yeah. Calling him Flower Burial Sword Saint wasn’t a form of courtesy,” the Last Sky Great Saint said.

The Jade Lotus Saint Sovereign said, “We’re not too sure about that ‘Heavenly Slaughter Empress.’ She seemed fake, but the aura that she gave off felt real.”

“Okay.” The holy master said. The Last Sky Great Saint and Jade Lotus Saint Sovereign said nothing else, while the Astral River Saint Sovereign looked anxious.

“Xinghe, do you have something to say?” The holy master asked with a smile.

Astral River Saint Sovereign nodded and said, “Since you have acknowledged him, why don’t you go look at him and explain the matters about the Heavenly Slaughter Empress?”

Among the three, the Astral River Saint Sovereign had a close relationship with Lin Yun, forged in the Heavenly Void. After all, Lin Yun had saved his life, which the Astral River Saint Sovereign kept in his heart.

The Divine Phoenix Mountain’s holy master smiled, “You’re saying that I’m neglecting him?”

The holy master continued, “I’ll meet him when the Sacred Alliance arrives. It’s about time for him to take on some responsibilities.”

Within the Iris Secret Realm, an azure-clothed youth was seated beneath the Phoenix Tree, brandishing his sword. His sword trembled with thunderstorms appearing in the surrounding area. To a certain degree, the azure-clothed youth gave off a prideful temperament, enveloped in a divine radiance. He gave off a feeling that he was close yet far.

As he brandished his sword, the surrounding space would distort, with several sword rays flying out before he swung his sword. Not even space had distorted, but time did. The azure-clothed youth were naturally Lin Yun.

“Nirvana of the Beginning!” Lin Yun roared as the Azure Saint Cloth began to flutter. It felt as though Lin Yun had broken through a barrier, and he was shocked when he turned around. He saw another before him, swinging his sword and looking like a breath had reversed time.

He couldn’t come to his senses in time before the Flower Burial Sword stabbed into the other party by half an inch. After which, Lin Yun quickly came to his senses and sheathed his sword. When he landed on the ground, he threw out a mouthful of blood and took a few steps back. Lowering his head, he could see a hole in his chest with blood gushing out.

This left Lin Yun stumped because he couldn’t comprehend what just happened.

Lil’ Purple also opened her eyes from beneath the waterfall and bolted over. She took a deep breath and asked with shock, “W-What happened to you?”

Lin Yun was wearing the Azure Saint Cloth with thousands of saint runes, forming a complete spiritual array. It was so tough that not even a sixth-stage Saint Lord could damage it. But there was now a hole in it.

“I-I seemed to have grasped Nirvana?” Lin Yun said with uncertainty. Over the past four days, he had been practicing the Sword of the Beginning, also known as the Nirvana Sword Art. It consisted of a total of six sword forms, with each sword possessing hundreds of variations. He had long been familiar with them, and he wouldn’t make a mistake to injure himself.

This was why he still hadn’t recovered from what happened earlier. That wasn’t a secret technique from the Dragon-Phoenix World Annihilating Sword Canon, but he had returned in time. It was only a breath, but he broke through the time restriction in that breath.

After hearing Lin Yun’s explanation, Lil’ Purple rejoiced, “Try it again!”

“Okay.” Lin Yun ignored his injuries and tried the Nirvana of the Beginning multiple times. Although his attack was terrifying, he couldn’t repeat what happened earlier.

“This is weird. How did I manage to do it?” Lin Yun muttered. After he executed it multiple times, he exhausted all his saint energy but couldn’t repeat that scene, no matter how he tried.

Lil’ Purple smiled, “There’s no need to hurry. Since you can succeed once you’ve entered the doors, there’s no issue in your direction, so you can rest now.”

Lin Yun sheathed his sword and smiled, “Now isn’t the time to rest. It’s time to do what I promised you.”

“The Sinful Fire Divine Rune!” Lil’ Purple’s eyes lit up.

Lin Yun nodded and came before the Othershore Flower, before reaching out. There was a weak flame at the flower bud, which made it look even more dreamy.

“It’s going to grow its bud!” Lil’ Purple smiled, looking at the Othershore Flower.

But the Othershore Flower seemed afraid of Lil’ Purple and extracted its roots from the ground before crawling into Lin Yun’s hands.
