Chapter 668 This child is destined to be unrelated to the Great Dao
"We can't agree to that..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chenxiao felt as if his heart was being gripped tightly by a large hand, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
He had a strong intuition that the bronze sword was his destiny.
If the bronze sword chooses Gu Qing, it will not only lose a great opportunity and fortune, but will also be suppressed by Gu Qing, its fate uncertain.
If the bronze sword chooses him, then Gu Qingluoli will be the one to die.
Gu Qing glanced at him coldly, then stopped paying attention and waited for the bronze sword's reply.
It was truly a stroke of luck for the bronze sword to be with him.
Similarly, he can also reap huge benefits.
If the bronze sword chooses Ye Chenxiao, Gu Qing doesn't care. If he refines the bronze sword, he can immediately break through the ninth level and his foundation will rise.
In fact, Gu Qing preferred to refine the bronze sword spirit, as improving his strength was more important.
However, in the long run, keeping the weapon spirit is more beneficial. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, making it difficult for Gu Qing to choose. So he simply gave the choice to the bronze sword's weapon spirit.
"Shut up if you don't want to die."
Luo Li said sternly, and the Heavenly Cauldron shone brightly, locking onto Ye Chenxiao, as if it were about to deliver a fatal blow to Ye Chenxiao at any moment.
Ye Chenxiao felt immense terror, but he did not retreat an inch. Looking at the Heavenly Cauldron, a fleeting desire flashed in his eyes.
"Luo Li, you've been hiding your strength really well. No wonder I can't beat you."
This Heavenly Cauldron is too powerful and profound. Just by looking at its surface, he deduced that the Heavenly Cauldron contains the complete power of the Heavenly Dao, which can melt all laws and unify all paths.
At the same time, one can draw upon the power of heaven and earth to make it one's own.
If he were to obtain the Heavenly Cauldron, he would be far stronger than Luo Li, invincible in his time, and able to suppress the destiny of an entire era.
And Gu Qing, he must also possess a priceless treasure.
"hehe!"
Luo Li chuckled coldly, her beautiful eyes filled with disdain.
From the moment Ye Chenxiao said those words, she concluded that Ye Chenxiao was a good-for-nothing who would never reach the pinnacle of the Dao.
Magical artifacts may be powerful and have endless uses, but they are ultimately just magical artifacts. True strength lies in the person, not in the magical artifact.
Ye Chenxiao couldn't even see this point, blinded by the powerful magic weapon, destined to be unrelated to the Great Dao, and his achievements in life would be limited.
"Are you sure?" The spirit of the bronze sword looked at Ye Chenxiao, its voice as calm as plain water, revealing no emotion.
He also understood this principle well. His master was a true strongman who possessed great treasures but never relied on them.
Magical artifacts are ultimately just external objects; true strength lies in one's own inherent power.
His master, with the help of magical artifacts, continuously strengthened himself, created his own unparalleled swordsmanship, and became the most dazzling prodigy of his time.
Unfortunately, when fortune smiles upon you, heaven and earth lend their strength, but when fortune turns, even heroes are powerless to resist.
Even though its master possessed extraordinary combat power and unparalleled talent, it could not defy fate.
During its tribulations and decline, it was besieged by humans and perished here, transforming into a forbidden area.
He waited here for countless years, just to find a successor for his master to inherit his mantle.
He noticed the three as soon as they entered Death Valley.
After all, the three of them had the strongest backgrounds He had ever seen in countless years.
Gu Qing, in particular, has a lineage that far surpasses that of his former master.
He had no doubt that, given time, Gu Qing would attain enlightenment as the Lord God of Chaos.
Secondly, there's Luo Li.
However, Luo Li does not cultivate the sword path, and her own path is different from that of her master, so she excluded Luo Li immediately.
Ye Chenxiao is quite in line with the tradition, and both of them come from the Starry Sky Dao lineage.
Passing the inheritance to Ye Chenxiao can be considered as inheriting the same master and disciple, allowing Ye Chenxiao to carry on the legacy and make it flourish.
Therefore, His favorite successor is Ye Chenxiao.
But upon hearing Ye Chenxiao's words, He was greatly disappointed.
How can one become a true strongman if one cannot even distinguish between external objects and oneself?
"senior!"
Ye Chenxiao's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
He was well aware of the standards that strong people set for choosing disciples, and that putting the cart before the horse was a major taboo.
In fact, Ye Chenxiao has always believed that true strength lies in one's own abilities, and that treasures are merely external objects.
Therefore, he always felt that he had an invincible Dao heart.
However, after being defeated by Luo Li, he saw the Heavenly Cauldron, a supreme treasure, and was momentarily blinded by greed.
If no remedy is found and the bronze sword spirit's impression of him is reversed, then there is absolutely no hope of him choosing a master.
Ye Chenxiao's mind raced, and he said solemnly, "Senior, although external things are external things and should not be relied upon too much, how can one talk about the Great Dao without the assistance of external things?"
"Oh, so do you think the treasure is more important, or yourself? If you had this Heavenly Cauldron, could you really defeat her?"
Although the spirit of the bronze sword is a weapon spirit, it has no emotions or desires and does not understand human cunning, but it is not so easy to fool.
"Nature itself is important."
Ye Chenxiao replied without hesitation, "As the saying goes, one must be strong to forge iron. Without sufficient cultivation, even with heaven-defying magic treasures, one cannot unleash their full potential."
"If I could obtain the Heavenly Cauldron, I would surely be able to fuse all laws into one, fuse the supreme Dao fruit, and kill Luo Li in the blink of an eye."
"joke!"
Luo Li's expression turned cold, and killing intent appeared in her eyes.
Ye Chenxiao is truly shameless. Not to mention that she obtained the Heavenly Cauldron after defeating Ye Chenxiao, even without the Heavenly Cauldron, even if Ye Chenxiao obtained it, she could still defeat him.
The Dao Fruit is the Dao Fruit, and supernatural powers are supernatural powers.
Indeed, the stronger one's Dao fruit, the more powerful the supernatural abilities one can comprehend.
For example, Gu Qing attained the Chaotic Boundless Dao Fruit, which allows him to comprehend boundless supernatural powers, making him unparalleled.
Although she is not as good as Gu Qing, she is definitely not weak.
Her supernatural powers all stemmed from her understanding of Taoist principles. As a result, her supernatural powers manifested naturally, allowing her to fully unleash her strength.
And what about Ye Chenxiao?
Luo Li had fought him for years and had long since figured out Ye Chenxiao's background.
Ye Chenxiao's supernatural abilities have absolutely nothing to do with his Taoist magic; they are all just parroting what others have learned.
However, Ye Chenxiao's supernatural liquid was indeed powerful, and he was naturally invincible when encountering other cultivators of the same level who also learned from others.
However, when faced with a powerful individual who has forged their own path and created their own supernatural abilities and techniques, Ye Chenxiao is simply no match for them.
The reason she fought Ye Chenxiao for so long back then wasn't because her strength was comparable to his, but because she was wary of his status and dared not kill him.
Furthermore, she wanted to find out Ye Chenxiao's background and hone her supernatural abilities, which is why she fought for several years.
Without the above considerations, she could have defeated Ye Chenxiao in just a few moves.
Numerous supernatural powers flashed by, and Luo Li bowed respectfully to the bronze sword.
"Senior, please don't be fooled by this shameless scoundrel."
"All external things are fake. He is not bothered by external things because he has more powerful external things. Now that he sees something more mysterious and powerful than himself, he immediately reveals his true nature."
"The so-called invincible Dao heart is even more vulnerable. Thinking that defeating a few ants makes one invincible is even more laughable than a frog in a well."
"Furthermore, surely his background couldn't be hidden from you, senior?"
"I dare say that this child is destined to be unrelated to the Great Dao."
"Luo Li..." Upon hearing this, Ye Chenxiao's eyes blazed with fury, and his heart burned with murderous intent.
He was an invincible sword cultivator, a prodigy in the entire Origin Continent, revered and worshipped by countless geniuses.
Even someone as powerful as him was belittled to the point of being worthless by Luo Li.
Being deprived of the Great Dao is the most vicious curse upon him.
Ye Chenxiao wished he could tear Luo Li to pieces.
Unfortunately, their abilities didn't allow it.
Ye Chenxiao took a deep breath and said to the bronze sword, "Senior, please do not listen to Luo Li. Luo Li is treacherous, cunning, ruthless, and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals."
"My ability to become a disciple of the Star Mother is enough to prove my talent."
The spirit of the bronze sword remained silent.
He truly knew Ye Chenxiao's background perfectly.
Originally, He was choosing the inferior over the superior, abandoning Gu Qing and choosing Ye Chenxiao, simply because Ye Chenxiao was the successor of the Star Dao lineage.
Moreover, Ye Chenxiao was a disciple of the Star Saint Mother, and Ye Chenxiao himself was not bad either, so He naturally favored Ye Chenxiao more.
Previously, He hadn't thought about it in this way until Luo Li mentioned it, but now that he was reminded, His heart wavered again.
