Chaos Sword Body Technique: The Sword God is invincible!-Chapter 357 Half-Saint Xuan Yu
Chapter 357: Chapter 357 Half-Saint Xuan Yu
"The Sword Saint has shown himself..."
At this moment, the watching saints all felt a sense of numb amazement.
Today was destined to be a day recorded in the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land Chronicles.
In the history of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, there had never been anyone on the Sacrificial Altar who had triggered the showing of a Sword Saint.
Now, in the eyes of those numerous saints, Lin Yi was simply the Child of Destiny.
The Wuji Sword Saint’s manifestation lasted only briefly before dissipating.
And Lin Yi, under the watchful eyes of everyone, stepped down from the Sacrificial Altar.
The focus of thousands.
Feeling the myriad gazes upon him as if they were stripping him bare, Lin Yi couldn’t help but frown; the sensation was unpleasant.
"Xu Qing."
Just as Lin Yi had stepped down from the altar, he was greeted by two figures who descended before him—it was none other than Half-Saint Xuan Yu and Red Flame Venerable.
"Greetings, Red Flame Venerable."
Lin Yi immediately bowed in salute to Red Flame Venerable and then felt the terrifying fluctuation coming from Half-Saint Xuan Yu, giving rise to an ominous feeling.
"This is Half-Saint Xuan Yu, a Saint Elder of our Heavenly Sword Holy Land."
Red Flame Venerable introduced to Lin Yi.
The Saint Elder was an existence on par with the Holy Master. In the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, they held high status and heavy power, rarely ever seen.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi had caught his attention today.
"Greetings, Saint Elder."
On the surface, Lin Yi was very respectful, but inside he felt uneasy because his disguise could only deceive those at the Venerable level. At this Half-Saint level, it was quite possible that his true identity would be seen through.
If Half-Saint Xuan Yu were to reveal his identity in public here, then Lin Yi was likely to be in big trouble.
A Half-Saint could easily crush him to death with just a flick of a finger, never to rise again.
However, Half-Saint Xuan Yu did not expose his identity. "Just now, did the will of Wuji Sword Saint manifest and infuse a thread of Sword Intent into your body?"
"Indeed."
Lin Yi nodded, "I have already begun to merge this thread of Sword Intent into my body."
"So quickly?"
Half-Saint Xuan Yu looked skeptically at Lin Yi, obviously doubting that Lin Yi had already fused with the thread of Wuji Sword Saint’s Sword Intent.
Seeing Half-Saint Xuan Yu’s disbelief, Lin Yi had no choice but to release the Infinite Sword Intent he had just merged into his body!
In an instant, a fierce and endless aura burst forth from Lin Yi’s body, ceaseless and boundless.
Sensing this oncoming aura, Half-Saint Xuan Yu’s face instantly cleared of skepticism!
Indeed, these were the fluctuations of Holy Sword Intent!
Could this young man truly have merged with this thread of Infinite Sword Intent in such a brief time?
It seems that the heaven-defying talent that triggered the world’s vision was not unfounded.
Half-Saint Xuan Yu’s gaze toward Lin Yi suddenly turned fervent, "Xu Qing, are you willing to join my tutelage and become my Direct Disciple?"
The moment he spoke, even Red Flame Venerable beside him couldn’t help but show a look of surprise. Had Half-Saint Xuan Yu actually taken a fancy to taking a disciple directly?
But upon reflection, given the talent Lin Yi had shown, it was simply too monstrous. Even the peerless Heavenly Prides of the Inner Sect had been thoroughly outclassed by Lin Yi in their Sword Dao talent.
For Half-Saint Xuan Yu to take Lin Yi as a Direct Disciple would be a tremendous gain.
And the urgency with which Half-Saint Xuan Yu acted also aimed to capitalize on the element of surprise, securing Lin Yi as his disciple before other high-ranking members of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land became aware of Lin Yi’s existence.
Red Flame Venerable looked at Lin Yi with a face full of emotion. To be personally offered discipleship by a Half-Saint was an incredible honor.
What was there to consider?
However, after a moment’s contemplation, Lin Yi shook his head and said, "I apologize, but I am not yet ready to take a master."
To refuse Half-Saint Xuan Yu!
"You lad, actually refused a Half-Saint?"
Red Flame Venerable looked at Lin Yi incredulously. How many would dream of being able to disciple under Half-Saint Xuan Yu? This was an opportunity that one could not even beg for; it was always the Half-Saints who picked their disciples, but today he saw a saint picking a Half-Saint!
"Give me a reason."
Being refused by a saint left Half-Saint Xuan Yu somewhat displeased.
Without much thought, Lin Yi plainly said, "Because I have bigger ambitions."
Bigger ambitions?
Even Half-Saint Xuan Yu couldn’t help but be taken aback at this response. The implication was that Lin Yi wished to disciple under someone even more powerful!
Red Flame Venerable looked bemused. Lin Yi’s straightforward answer, wasn’t he afraid of offending Half-Saint Xuan Yu?
However, the reason Lin Yi spoke so openly was after careful consideration.
Rather than fabricate some poor excuse to appease Half-Saint Xuan Yu, it was better to reveal his true intentions.
As a Swordsman, desiring strength was intrinsic; seeking a stronger master to pursue a mightier Sword Dao, what fault could be found in that?
As a Sword Dao Half-Saint, surely Half-Saint Xuan Yu could understand his mindset.
Indeed, Half-Saint Xuan Yu, after hearing Lin Yi’s reason, not only did not get angry but instead smiled, "You lad, are truly fearless of offending others."
"Let me tell you honestly, within the Holy Land, speaking purely of Sword Dao, indeed there are a few who are stronger than myself. However, whether you can become their disciple, depends on your Qi Fortune."
In Half-Saint Xuan Yu’s view, while Lin Yi’s talent was surely high, his current strength was still far too meager and fell short of the criteria for a Half-Saint Disciple.
Those few might not hold Lin Yi in the high regard that he did.
