Chapter 212: Chapter 135: Tower of Ten Thousand Paths, Conclusion and Aftermath_2

He vaguely saw swordsmen of the Inquiring Sword Pavilion laughing as they faced death, leaving behind their unique marks within the Sword Tower.

The higher the floor one reaches, the greater the honor. ”The one who left behind this Sword Tower was truly extraordinary.”

Ning Qi sensed the strongest River Sword Intent of the Inquiring Sword Pavilion, which was left by the pavilion’s founder, an exceptionally talented swordsman in those days. It surpassed the Heart Inquiry Sword by a notch. Gu Changhe’s Heart Inquiry Sword Intent was also on this level, but out of respect for the founder, he voluntarily etched his sword intent below it. ”River Sword Intent, Heart Inquiry Sword Intent, Mountain-Relocating Sword Intent, Falling Star Sword Intent... all have their formidable aspects.” ”Especially the River Sword Intent, which starts with the river but is conceived with a high vision, vast and flowing endlessly, stretching across thousands of miles, embodying a sense of transcending time and space. This founder of the Inquiring Sword Pavilion was indeed extraordinary. No wonder he came up with the method of leaving this Inheritance Sword Tower. It’s just a pity that subsequent generations are lacking...”

Ning Qi closed his eyes to comprehend.

The thousand-year accumulation of the Inquiring Sword Pavilion became the resources for his growth.

His sword intent encompassed everything, incorporating the essence of various sword intents for his growth.

From bottom to top.

As Ning Qi strolled leisurely, he already understood the marks left by many swordsmen over their lifetimes. His comprehension was naturally exaggerated, and with unparalleled Sword Dao, he digested quickly at an astonishing speed, gaining insights within just a breath.

He only ever paused when creating new techniques. In learning existing techniques, he never encountered any so-called difficulties.

If the True Martial Sword Monument is a steady stream, then this time the Sword Tower is an unprecedented ’feast.’

A few days later.

After digesting the ’feast,’ Ning Qi exhaled a heartfelt sigh of relief.

He had a look of satisfaction on his face.

This time, he gained a lot, making significant progress in his sword intent and obtaining new insights into the Sword Dao, which further raised his ceiling of potential.

If forced to compare, it might equal years of gains from an open True Martial Sword Monument.

Of course.

Following the defeat of the Heart Inquiry Sword, the fame of True Man Tianjian rose further, attracting more swordsmen to come, and in turn, the True Martial Sword Monument would receive more feedback on Sword Dao simultaneously. ’Feasts’ don’t come every day, while the steady stream from the True Martial Sword Monument is the real path. ”Not just the True Martial Sword Monument, but this Inheritance Sword Tower can also be opened to the public.”

Ning Qi had already thought about how to deal with the Sword Tower.

In his view, the way the Inquiring Sword Pavilion hoarded it was too wasteful; otherwise, how would there be only these Sword Dao essences accumulated over a thousand years? But this was understandable, as not everyone had the absolute confidence of Ning Qi.

Moreover, people always have possessive desires for their belongings.

With a thought.

An unparalleled and unrivaled sword intent instantly soared within the Sword Tower. In an instant, all the sword intents erupted, intertwining like an invisible web seeking to shatter Ning Qi’s sword intent.

But unfortunately, it was futile.

The sword-intent web melted like spring snow encountering the sun when it met Ning Qi’s sword intent.

Ning Qi was cleansing the Sword Tower.

After digesting all the residues, he understood the situation within the Sword Tower like the back of his hand. He knew that some sword intents were repetitive, shallow, or even chaotic. Not all of the Inquiring Sword Pavilion’s Sword Dao masters were formidable.

At this moment, Ning Qi’s sword intent swept through, erasing many of the traces.

The entire Sword Tower became significantly cleaner.

After some contemplation.

Various intents manifested from Ning Qi, such as Fist Intent, Blade Intent, Spear Intent, and so on. Although not as strong as his sword intent, they were unparalleled if brought outside. Many intents left marks within the Sword Tower before vanishing.

This acquisition of the Sword Tower from the Inquiring Sword Pavilion was an opportunity for Ning Qi to experiment.

As True Man Tianjian, he could only establish the True Martial Sword Monument, and if he set up a monument encompassing all paths, it might cause great turmoil and attract the attention of that Great Yan Martial Saint.

Ning Qi was still extremely cautious of the Martial Saints before having absolute strength.

He always remembered what the Town North King said, that the world no longer had Martial Saint Techniques. If it was indeed erased by someone, it was best not to show too many anomalies. ”But the Sword Tower before my eyes exists on its own, not established by True Man Tianjian.” ”Once the Inheritance Sword Tower is open to the public, it won’t be as freely accessible as the True Martial Sword Monument. Conditions can be set so that martial artists entering the Sword Tower, in comprehending a particular layer’s sword intent, must leave martial path or ultimate skill of equivalent realm as an exchange.” ”In this way, over time, the Inheritance Sword Tower will not just be limited to Sword Dao.” ”Then, during this process, the various intents and martial arts I’ve left will gradually emerge. The beauty lies in no one knowing which strong one left them. The Inheritance Sword Tower will truly become a Tower of Ten Thousand Paths, where all formidable ones enter to aid my growth!” ”Therefore, calling it the Inheritance Sword Tower no longer suits it. From now on, let’s call it the Tower of Ten Thousand Paths.” ”In a sense, this is a more in-depth attempt based on the True Martial Sword Monument, and it has more benefits for the True Martial Sect. After all, the True Martial Sword Monument only lets disciples comprehend my sword intent, while the Tower of Ten Thousand Paths allows them to also gain the ultimate skills of those who enter.”

Thinking this, a smile appeared on Ning Qi’s face.

This was beneficial for both the True Martial Sect and him.

It was even extremely advantageous for the entire Great Yan Martial Realm.

Perhaps, at first, some would hoard their own ultimate skills, unwilling to exchange them, but someone will always exchange if you don’t. As those people grow stronger and you fall behind, even if you don’t want to exchange, you’ll have to.
