Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2264: Chapter 2260: Sword Dao Guides the Way

Step...

Xiao Yi’s footsteps moved, and thus stepped forward.

The entire Netherworld Road, in this fierce endless wind and snow.

The wind and snow, thickly pervaded, visible to the naked eye, one couldn’t see far ahead.

In front, it was simply a vast expanse of white, with no end in sight.

How big is this wind and snow world? No one knows, nor does Xiao Yi, it is probably similar to the endless Snow Mountain in the outside world.

And this Netherworld Road, however, is like a sharp sword, piercing through the entire wind and snow time.

This road, straight and long.

All Xiao Yi needs to do is move forward.

Step...step...step...step...

The dense sound of footsteps suddenly rang out, even overshadowing the sound of wind and snow.

Xiao Yi’s pace wasn’t fast, but it was not that slow either.

In a blink, Xiao Yi had already traveled several miles.

Pressure, there was, but not too overwhelming.

”Such cold wind and snow.” Xiao Yi was inwardly surprised.

The wind and snow blowing here far surpassed the coldness of the endless wind and snow outside.

The wind and snow here, cold and piercing, even made his Dao Heart and mind feel somewhat frozen.

Yet this terrifying sense of cold carried a touch of inexplicable mystery.

Xiao Yi carefully sensed it, his face increasingly joyous, ”It’s the meaning of Martial Arts.”

Indeed, this Netherworld Road has its own Martial Arts meaning.

In this world, every flower, every grass, every tree, every wood, all can be followed by Martial Arts rules.

All things in the world operate under the Heaven and Earth Rules.

Only the Martial Artist can, through roaming the world, comprehend nature and gain enlightenment, receive Martial Arts Insights.

The difference lies in whether the martial artist can discover or not.

Whether Martial Arts itself has that talent.

And this Netherworld Road, its very essence has extremely intense Martial Arts meaning.

As soon as Xiao Yi stepped on it, he felt it, and the further he walked, the stronger the feeling became.

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes.

He believed, and also was sure, the further he walked on this road, the greater his insights and gains would be.

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi’s footsteps moved again.

Not long after, he reached a distance of ten miles.

At this time, the sense of cold on Xiao Yi’s body had become increasingly severe.

Dao Heart, almost ice-sealed.

”Break through for me.” Xiao Yi inwardly coldly shouted.

Within him, the Sword Heart vibrated incessantly.

The exciting sword sound shattered the cold ice, Xiao Yi instantly cleared, and moved forward again.

Though clearly, Xiao Yi’s advancing pace gradually slowed down, not much but slightly more than before.

After an entire hour.

Xiao Yi then advanced ten miles, reaching a distance of twenty miles.

At this moment, Xiao Yi’s eyes started to become somewhat dazed and even lost.

Wind Snow Netherworld Road, indeed not as simple as imagined.

With his Sword Heart, with his strength, merely a mere 20 miles was hard to bear.

No wonder Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness said that passing 50 miles on this road was extremely difficult for Xiao Yi, yet not impossible.

Xiao Yi gritted his teeth and forced himself to move forward.

Behind him, 20 miles away, Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness suddenly frowned and shook his head.

”Did I overestimate this little one?”

After several seconds, Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness’s expression began to look grim.

”Becoming more unbearable, this little one, truly just for show?”

”Logically, I should just quietly watch you move forward, not disturb your Martial Arts Dao.”

”But...” Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness’s expression turned cold, ”Over tens of millions of years, even as just Spiritual Consciousness, I cannot hold on much longer.”

”No one to manage this Ice Venerate Hall thereafter, it is dangerous.”

”Forget it, if I truly await an incompetent, then I can only accept it.” Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness gritted his teeth.

”Young man.” A loud shout.

In front, Xiao Yi’s originally dazed gaze regained some clarity, he turned in confusion to look at the Spiritual Consciousness.

Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness said coldly, ”If you are walking in the vastness of desert, big snow, or ocean, what do you most easily lose?”

”Is it life? No. Life is lost last, the first thing you lose is your direction.”

”In these vast terrains, you cannot distinguish the way forward, cannot see hope, become increasingly lost, and even moving forward becomes impossible, and just revolving around without finding the way.”

”Such a simple truth, do you still need me to teach you?”

In front, Xiao Yi’s eyes suddenly widened, his dazed gaze cleared.

Looking behind, his original steps forward had deviated more than half.

Xiao Yi was instantly startled inwardly; thanks to the Spiritual Consciousness’s reminder, otherwise he would continue deviating, and eventually not only unable to walk the Netherworld Road but also lost in this mysterious and terrifying wind and snow.

Xiao Yi felt a moment of fear in his heart, the next second, step again onto the straight line, eyes cold, move forward once more.

The simple truth spoken by the Spiritual Consciousness was indeed apparent.

Xiao Yi, having experienced countless life and death, naturally knew.

Only, he was eager to walk this Wind Snow Road, his heart burning with resolve, instead grew chaotic in urgency.

Sometimes, high spirits are not necessarily a good thing.

Xiao Yi slowed his steps a bit.

Looking at the surrounding wind and snow, he frowned.

Such densely pervasive wind and snow, not only could he not see ahead, he couldn’t see a meter to either side.

Previously, from afar outside the Ice Venerate Hall, there seemed no anomaly.

Yet truly being within, further obscured vision.

That feeling was like an observer seeing clearly, while the participant was confused.

”With such dense wind and snow, even if I can withstand the cold, I cannot move straight forward.” Xiao Yi frowned tightly.

This Wind Snow Netherworld Road, with such intense Martial Arts meaning, was clearly not simply a road.

Xiao Yi pondered for a while, then closed his eyes.

Far behind, Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness furrowed brows, ”What’s this little one doing? With unclear vision, a light Dao Heart, dares to move blindly with closed eyes?”

Though Xiao Yi was facing away from Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness, within this wind and snow, in a long range and distance, the Spiritual Consciousness could sense it.

In front.

Xiao Yi closed his eyes, moving forward.

If unable to see the way ahead, unable to feel either side, then move forward from the heart.

This Wind Snow Netherworld Road is straight.

And his Sword Dao is straight too.

If he covers this Wind Snow Netherworld Road with his Sword Dao, then everything would be easy.

Xiao Yi’s speed of moving forward increased again.

This time, the direction in which he advanced was straight without deviation.

Xiao Yi’s steps, on the vast white snow.

But his heart walked in his own Sword Dao.

Two roads thus converged.

One, straight and ahead, hazy and endless.

One, clear and bright, yet radiant, though seen to the end, seemed like a guiding light road.

Behind.

”Hmm?” Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness’s eyes shone.

”Such a clever young one.”

Xiao Yi’s progression, with no more errors.

Steps, though not extremely fast, were not slow.

miles, 30 miles, 40 miles...

Four hours later, Xiao Yi’s figure was already beyond 50 miles.

...

The second update.
