Chapter 1115 Enlightenment

"You... your state of mind has reached perfection?" Tianli exclaimed in astonishment.

Just now, Ye Yuan's unity of heaven and man had finally reached the state of great perfection!

For ordinary martial artists, achieving a perfect state of mind is the most difficult step.

But Ye Yuan had accomplished it while only at the fourth level of Dao Xuan.

A perfect state of mind is a necessary condition for breaking through to the Divine Path. Without this step, breaking through to the Divine Realm is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Tianli knew all too well that even in the era of the Divine Path, there were countless experts blocked at the gates of the Divine Path by their state of mind.

Yet Ye Yuan had done it just like that!

Ye Yuan gently stroked the Zhuxie Divine Sword and said calmly, "The more you pursue it, the more elusive it becomes. Only through detachment, tranquility, and an ordinary heart can it come naturally. Zhuxie, am I right?"

"Hymn..."

As if responding to Ye Yuan's words, the Zhuxie Divine Sword emitted a soft sword hum.

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Zhuxie, thank you!"

"Hymn..."

Another harmonious sound.

Although Tianli's expression was invisible, he must have been extremely shocked at that moment.

"You... you actually gained Zhuxie's recognition! And... it only took five days!" Tianli's astonishment was beyond measure.

The recognition of the Zhuxie Divine Sword is the first and most crucial step toward resonance.

Five days ago, he had said that Ye Yuan couldn't even get his foot in the door without ten or eight years.

But now, in just five days, Ye Yuan had already gained the recognition of the Zhuxie Divine Sword.

However, Tianli understood what was going on.

Ye Yuan's talent was simply monstrous!

In just five days, Ye Yuan had achieved enlightenment and cultivated his state of mind to great perfection—something ordinary people could never do.

Ye Yuan truly deserved the title of Son of Destiny.

Since Ye Yuan had demonstrated his extraordinary strength, winning the recognition of the Zhuxie Divine Sword was naturally not a difficult matter.

"Whoosh!"

As Ye Yuan was communicating with the Zhuxie Divine Sword, countless images suddenly flooded into his mind.

Ye Yuan's body jolted violently, feeling as if his mind was about to burst.

Tianli was startled again and said, "Zhuxie, you're actually taking the initiative to resonate with this kid? Truly, truly incredible! It seems that in your eyes, this kid is fully capable of replacing Jue Tian's position!"

To achieve resonance, one must first gain the recognition of the Zhuxie Divine Sword, and only then can resonance occur.

But now, the Zhuxie Divine Sword had taken the initiative to extend an olive branch, helping Ye Yuan achieve resonance.

Tianli was stunned by Zhuxie's action.

"Hymn..."

Another soft hum, as if responding to Tianli's surprise.

Tianli sighed softly and said, "You're right. This is no longer the era of the Tianyi Sect, nor the era of Jue Tian! Dwelling on past glory is useless. The Holy Mother and Kano have appeared simultaneously; the danger of this era may be even greater than before. This kid's talent is truly terrifying. In the future, his achievements may not be inferior to Jue Tian's. If you follow him, you may one day reach the pinnacle again!"

Bombarded by countless images, Ye Yuan's head felt like it was about to explode.

These were all memory fragments of the Zhuxie Divine Sword!

It took Ye Yuan an entire day to sort through this vast amount of information.

Scenes flashed through Ye Yuan's mind—all of them moments shared with Jue Tian.

Together, Zhuxie Sword and Jue Tian had fought countless battles and finally reached the pinnacle of the Divine Domain.

After that, they fought together against the demon race, enduring hardships and dangers, until Jue Tian finally sealed the Holy Mother Demon Flower in the Eternal Medicine Garden.

But this time, Jue Tian had left it behind in the Eternal Medicine Garden!

At the end of these images, Ye Yuan also found himself—scenes of his bloody battle with the Holy Mother Demon Flower and Garuda.

So, the Zhuxie Divine Sword had witnessed all of this.

Its choice to acknowledge a master was probably also heavily influenced by his desperate fight against the demon race, wasn't it?

If he were an irresponsible fellow, even if he possessed the Haotian Stele, Zhuxie probably wouldn't acknowledge him as master.

"Sword intent soaring to the clouds, evil never prevails over righteousness! A gentleman's heart is open and honest; the path of the sword leads to the heavens! Zhuxie, rest assured. Even if I ultimately perish, I will completely eradicate the demon race! From now on, you and I will stand side by side, slaying all the evil in this world!" Ye Yuan declared with heroic spirit.

As if sensing Ye Yuan's heroic spirit, the Zhuxie Divine Sword trembled violently in his hand.

Ye Yuan grasped the hilt, and suddenly, strings of golden characters poured into his sea of consciousness!

Divine Inscriptions!

A flash of enlightenment struck Ye Yuan—these Divine Inscriptions were the key to wielding the Zhuxie Divine Sword.

Feeling the intimacy emanating from the Zhuxie Sword, Ye Yuan felt as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for years.

The profound and ancient aura emanating from the Divine Inscriptions made Ye Yuan sense the vastness and depth of the sword path.

The supreme true intent of Green Firmament Drifting that he had comprehended seemed as feeble as a toddler learning to walk before this aura.

This was the aura of the origin of the Great Dao!

This was the aura of the laws of the Divine Path!

Just like when he first encountered the Divine Inscriptions of the "Medicine Soul Divine Canon," Ye Yuan felt a sense of bewilderment.

Struck by this vast aura, a sudden enlightenment arose in Ye Yuan's heart!

His supreme true intent of the sword path had actually broken through completely, reaching the state of great perfection!

"So that's it! The supreme true intent is merely a stepping stone to open the door to the origin of the Great Dao. Only by cultivating the supreme true intent to great perfection can one use it as a guide to comprehend the origin of the Great Dao!" Ye Yuan slowly opened his eyes and exclaimed.

Tianli looked at Ye Yuan as if seeing a ghost and marveled, "You kid are simply a freak! The hardest part of comprehending the laws of the Divine Path is getting started. Even if one cultivates supreme true intent to great perfection, comprehending the laws of the Divine Path still depends on opportunity. I never expected that you would directly get started after obtaining the Divine Inscriptions!"

The shock Ye Yuan brought to Tianli was simply too intense.

The Divine Inscriptions represent extremely profound laws of origin force.

What martial artists at the Dao Xuan realm comprehend are merely branches of the origin force.

To comprehend the origin through a branch requires a great opportunity.

Most people spend their entire lives without encountering such an opportunity.

Yet, under the impact of the Divine Inscriptions, Ye Yuan had just achieved enlightenment!

Although what Ye Yuan had comprehended was still very shallow, once this door was opened, the path ahead became much easier.

This was the second time Ye Yuan had comprehended Divine Inscriptions. He had obtained the Divine Inscriptions of the "Medicine Soul Divine Canon" a long time ago, but had been unable to get started for a long time.

It wasn't until he broke through to the Dao Xuan realm and refined ninth-grade pills that he had an epiphany during alchemy and stepped through the door of the laws of the Divine Path.

And this time, Ye Yuan had directly comprehended the origin force of the sword path from the Zhuxie Divine Sword!
