Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 247: Chapter 149: Thank you, True Man, for helping me

Everyone was shocked and looked towards the horizon.

This scene was different from what most people had imagined. Even the loyal followers of True Man Tianjian likely hadn’t expected such a situation, after all, Blade Demon had been extremely dominant all along, undefeated, not even Sun Chasing Sword King could withstand him.

Many people had already predicted that Blade Demon was just a step away from the Blade Path Ultimate Realm, such a figure would be considered as Martial Saint reserve if placed thousands of years ago.

But now.

He was mercilessly defeated by True Man Tianjian. ”Is the gap between Ultimate Realm and beneath it truly so vast?” someone sighed.

They could naturally see that True Man Tianjian had already ascended to the Sword Path Ultimate Realm, which was the fundamental reason he could suppress Blade Demon.

At this moment.

The celestial swords floated silently in the void, though not emitting any glow, yet they seemed dazzling and carried the might to extinguish the Demon Blade, making people unwilling to gaze directly.

However.

The next moment, an even greater uproar arose.

Everyone anxiously looked towards the sky, just because, after the Demon Blade shattered, the remaining celestial swords didn’t lose their momentum, seemingly intending to slay Blade Demon in one fell swoop! ”What did Blade Demon do to offend True Man Tianjian, to warrant annihilation?!” Everyone was horrified.

Generally speaking.

Such challenges rarely result in fatal blows, it’s an unwritten rule of the Martial Realm.

Blade Demon, along his path, only killed the arrogant Heart Blade Old Man, others were merely severely injured.

People were perplexed.

But the remaining celestial swords had already gathered to form a true Sword Cage, with unparalleled Sword Intent crisscrossing, imprisoning Blade Demon within.

A blind old man showed a look of astonishment.

His originally departing footsteps paused, and he praised: ”Such magnanimity, no wonder he established the True Martial Sword Monument.” ”Just unsure whether he can reach that point...”

But then, he slowly shook his head: ”Ascending to Sword Path Ultimate Realm yet not attempting, ultimately lacks a certain aggressive courage, alas...”

The blind old man looked up at the sky, unknown to what he was thinking.

Amidst the shock of others, they heard True Man Tianjian speak calmly: ”If not enlightened now, then when?”

Blade Demon’s body trembled, and suddenly he understood, within his pitch-black pupils surfaced a trace of gratitude, in the spotlight of all, he unexpectedly gave up resistance, and then closed his eyes, sitting cross-legged in the cage of surging Sword Intent.

In an instant.

The Sword Cage constructed by celestial swords emitted a startling fluctuation, one strand of Sword Intent from every direction drew inwards, from the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, water, stones, grass and trees, all were influenced, and not only that, there was no offensive force, rather a unique Dao rhythm emanated.

Sun Chasing Sword King and others were dumbfounded, then their eyes flashed with intense envy.

They had already seen the intention of True Man Tianjian.

This was not to kill Blade Demon, but to help him achieve enlightenment.

They stared unblinkingly, also desperately perceiving the Intent Realm rhythm emitted by the Sword Cage.

Ning Qi watched silently.

His intention to help Blade Demon was not out of sudden goodwill, one is because Blade Demon, as an obsessive blademan, such a person is worth befriending, and will only have benefits without drawbacks for him, secondly, he wanted to see if Blade Demon could break through to Martial Saint after reaching the Blade Path Ultimate Realm, in some respect, Blade Demon served as a ’guinea pig.’

Of course.

Mainly Blade Demon was already very close to the Ultimate Realm, even without Ning Qi’s help, he’d just need to spend a bit more time, however, he was defeated by Ning Qi this time and might take longer.

Within the Sword Cage.

Invisible Sword Intent pierced through Blade Demon’s body, with each pass, his face paled a bit more, and he let out muffled groans. Given Blade Demon’s temperament as an unparalleled strong figure, one can imagine the pain within.

This was for Blade Demon to truly feel this kind of Ultimate Realm Sword Intent, thereby understanding by analogy.

If Ning Qi used Ultimate Realm Blade Intent, the effects would be better, but in full view, if he did so, it would certainly cause countless astonishment; now it was just right.

The crowd saw Blade Demon as if undergoing torture, his forehead sweating profusely, but none doubted, they already knew True Man Tianjian was helping Blade Demon with enlightenment, especially Divine Wind Blade Venerate and others, their hearts full of envy, wishing to replace Blade Demon themselves, even if the process was tenfold more painful, they’d willingly endure.

Time flowed slowly.

It should have been heavy snow time, yet the sun blazed fiercely, even the heavenly phenomena were impacted by the battle of two unparalleled strongmen.

Unknown how much time had passed.

A thunderous roar tore through the clouds, Blade Demon rose tall within the Sword Cage, he shouted to the sky, wild hair swaying, black eyes filled with demonic intensity, as if vying with the heavens for height, observant ones found, Blade Demon’s waist knife hilt had completely vanished.

In that instant.

The Sword Cage echoed, each celestial sword emitted Sword Intent, piercing Blade Demon’s body in unison.

Blade Demon spat blood.

Yet his momentum did not diminish but increased, numerous Blade Intent gathered from all directions, forming a gigantic Demon Blade, in a flash, forcefully slicing through the Sword Cage.

Everyone was stunned. ”Blade Demon... has entered the Blade Path Ultimate Realm!”

Eyes filled with both envy and awe.

But everyone knew, the most terrifying was still that aloof Black Robed Taoist, who lightly waved his hand, and the celestial swords vanished into invisibility.

The crowd looked.

Seeing Blade Demon bowing deeply, solemnly saluting True Man Tianjian:
