Chapter 234: The Vast Starry Sky Road

Gongsun Ce nodded and then left the Xianyang Palace.

After leaving Xianyang Palace, Gongsun Ce restrained his own breath and removed the seal on the blood of the Queen Mother of the West.

Afterwards, the aura of Lady of the Nine Heavens appeared, and a starry road emerged in front of Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce himself has not reached the state of unity between man and nature and cannot set foot on the road to the starry sky, but the Queen Mother of the West is well-deserved to have reached the state of unity between man and nature.

So Gongsun Ce guessed that he could find the way to the starry sky with the help of the breath of the Queen Mother of the West, and it turned out to be true.

The stars are twinkling, Gongsun Ce stands at the starting point of the starry road with a firm gaze.

Under his feet was a winding silver-white road that seemed to go straight to the sky and disappear into the boundless universe.

All around, countless stars are twinkling with charming light, as if telling the mysteries of the universe.

Gongsun Ce took a deep breath, his heart filled with anticipation and nervousness.

He knew that this road to the starry sky was full of unknowns and dangers, but he still took the first step without hesitation.

As his footsteps fell, the entire starry sky seemed to shake, and a powerful force surged from under his feet, pushing him forward.

Along the way, Gongsun Ce encountered a sudden strong gale.

The strong wind was as sharp as a knife or a sword, and even a master who had reached the state of unity between man and nature would find it difficult to resist.

However, Gongsun Ce was not afraid at all.

He gently waved his right hand in front of him, drawing a perfect circle. Then, he used the Reverse Tianyuan Technique. The Eye of the Void appeared out of thin air and swallowed up the violent gale.

However, the power of the strong wind was too strong, and cracks appeared on the Eye of Void after it devoured it for a while.

Gongsun Ce was shocked when he saw this. He knew that the Eye of Void could not block the strong wind forever.

So he decisively bypassed the cracking Eye of the Void and continued moving forward.

Not long after Gongsun Ce left, the Eye of the Void finally couldn't withstand the impact of the strong wind and cracked.

The strong wind swept out like a wild horse, instantly shattering a small meteorite.

The meteorite exploded in the starry sky, forming a brilliant fire. It was extremely beautiful, but it made the starry sky road seem particularly dangerous.

Gongsun Ce looked back and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

He secretly thanked his luck in his heart that he had avoided the Eye of the Void in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and continued on his way forward.

As time went by, Gongsun Ce followed the aura of Xunzi and the Master and came to a certain place on the Starry Sky Road.

This place is the last place where the aura of Xunzi and Master remains, which means that the world of Jiang Ye is nearby, but it is hidden by Haotian.

Therefore, Gongsun Ce was unable to detect any traces of the existence of this world with his naked eyes and perception abilities.

There was nothing else around except the twinkling stars.

Just as Gongsun Ce was thinking about how to find the Ever Night world, the pendant hanging around his waist suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light.

The pendant is the precious blood of Lady of the West, and Gongsun Ce has not yet figured out the specific usage of this thing.

However, the sudden appearance of the golden light made him realize that it was the heart blood of Lady of the Nine Heavens approaching her original body, so she reacted.

He stared at the light, and saw it like a thin golden thread, shuttling through the starry sky and finally pointing in a distant direction.

Gongsun Ce followed the guidance of the golden light without hesitation and embarked on a new journey.

As he moved forward, the scenery around him began to change.

The originally sparse stars gradually became dense, as if they formed a galaxy, but with one piece missing.

He knew that as long as he continued to follow this light, he would be able to find Xunzi and Confucius.

After walking for a while, Gongsun Ce passed through the invisible barriers and finally came to a whole new world.

This world is completely different from the Qin world he was in before. It is full of violent power of heaven and earth.

This power of heaven and earth can be absorbed, but it is difficult to calm the chaos of this power of heaven and earth.

Gongsun Ce had the feeling that the power of heaven and earth here became chaotic suddenly, rather than gradually.

As for the evidence, it is naturally the breath of the black sun that remains here. In addition, there is also the breath of Xunzi and the breath of thunder.

The moment Gongsun Ce stepped into the world of Ever Night, his aura, which was similar to Xunzi's, attracted Haotian's attention.

In Haotian's eyes, it was fine that he couldn't kill Xunzi, but couldn't he kill Gongsun Ce?
Above the sky, the originally tranquil sky suddenly trembled, an invisible force condensed in the void, and a pair of huge eyes quietly opened, revealing an indifferent and majestic aura.

These eyes are the will of Haotian. He overlooks this land and guards the world that belongs to Him.

Haotian's gaze penetrated layers of void and accurately locked onto Gongsun Ce.

He sensed the aura on Gongsun Ce that did not belong to this world. What surprised him even more was that Gongsun Ce's aura was not as good as that of Xunzi, whom he could do nothing about.

To this world, Gongsun Ce is an unknown and unstable existence. Haotian will not allow any potential threats to disrupt His order.

He planned to kill Gongsun Ce first and then kill Xunzi. As long as he completed his plan, he could devour the Master. In this way, Xunzi and Gongsun Ce could be played at his will.

Without any hesitation, Haotian decisively exerted his power.

Above the sky, a brilliant holy golden light cascaded down like a waterfall. That was the divine light of Haotian, containing the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.

Wherever the divine light of Haotian passed, the space seemed to be torn apart, forming shocking cracks.

Gongsun Ce looked up at the sky, and the dazzling golden light made him squint slightly.

But he did not back down, instead he raised his right hand and drew a perfect circle in the air.

As he moved, a strange black cavity formed in the air. It was the Eye of the Void summoned by Gongsun Ce using the Reverse Tianyuan Technique.

The Eye of the Void was like a deep black hole, swallowing up everything around it, including the surging divine light of Haotian.

Haotian's divine light continuously poured into the Eye of Void, as if to fill it up.

But Gongsun Ce was not satisfied with this. He continued to summon more Eyes of the Void. These Eyes of the Void took turns to come forward, like a relay, constantly absorbing the divine light of Haotian.

In just a few minutes, the six Void Eyes had absorbed a large amount of Haotian Divine Light.

They seemed to have turned into suns covered by dark clouds, emitting strands of golden light.

Haotian was watching all this coldly from above. He found that Haotian's divine light did not seem to cause any substantial harm to Gongsun Ce.

This greatly surprised Him, and He began to re-evaluate this seemingly ordinary young man.

Just when Haotian was about to exert even more powerful strength, Gongsun Ce suddenly moved.

As soon as he had a thought, the six Void Eyes that had absorbed the divine light of Haotian began to rotate, as if they had turned into huge millstones.

As they rotated, the Haotian Divine Light began to change. The originally gentle light gradually became violent, as if it was injected with new power.

Gongsun Ce gave a low shout, and those eyes in the void suddenly shot out rays of divine light towards the eyes in the sky.

With the blessing of the Eye of the Void, the power of these Haotian divine lights more than increased five times, like golden lightning, cutting through the sky and heading straight for Haotian's eyes.

The eyes in the sky clearly revealed some anger, as if angered by Gongsun Ce's provocation.

But what surprised him even more was that the Haotian Divine Light that originally belonged to him had now become a weapon to attack him.

A gleam of determination flashed in Haotian's eyes. He no longer hesitated and began to summon his subordinates.

In the same scene, facing the same tough opponent, when facing Xunzi, he summoned a five-clawed golden dragon, and when facing Gongsun Ce, he summoned the golden god general.

I saw a huge crack in the sky, as if tearing the void apart.

From the cracks, a towering golden temple slowly emerged, emitting dazzling light.

A divine general dressed in golden color walked out of the divine palace, holding a golden sword in his hand and looking at Gongsun Ce with cold eyes.

The appearance of the God General made the entire space seem to freeze. He exuded a powerful aura, like an insurmountable mountain.

Gongsun Ce also felt unprecedented pressure. This was a divine general who was at least at the level of unity of man and nature. For the Ever Night world, his strength was comparable to the eighth level of tranquility.

But if a fight breaks out, the divine general will definitely not be a match for those in the Pure and Tranquil Realm.

Gongsun Ce glanced at the golden general in front of him, and the dragon scale sword behind him trembled slightly according to his will, like a giant dragon about to take off.

"bass!"

Suddenly the Dragon Scale Sword was unsheathed, and he gripped the hilt tightly. A powerful sword energy instantly surged out, sweeping across the fields, causing the surrounding air to tremble.

The Golden God General seemed to feel the threat from Gongsun Ce. He no longer hesitated and swung the golden sword in his hand violently. A dazzling golden sword energy struck Gongsun Ce like lightning.

Wherever the sword energy passed, it seemed as if even the space was torn apart, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

However, Gongsun Ce did not choose to dodge, he gathered his true energy and the intention of a grandmaster, forcibly plundered the power of heaven and earth, and wielded a gentlemanly move.

This sword move contained his profound understanding of the elemental energy of heaven and earth. It forcibly plundered the elemental energy from all directions, causing its power to surge suddenly.

When the gentleman's style collided with the golden sword energy, a powerful energy wave instantly erupted.

The gentleman's style was as fierce as a violent storm, constantly absorbing the power of the golden sword energy.

Gradually, the golden sword energy began to be swallowed up by the gentleman's style, and the originally dazzling golden light gradually dimmed.

The Golden God General was horrified upon seeing this, and held the Golden Sword horizontally in front of him, trying to resist the sword energy formed by Gentleman Feng.

However, the power of Gentleman's Wind has exceeded his imagination.

He could only rely on his powerful strength to barely resist the invasion of sword energy.

However, as time went on, he gradually felt powerless and could only be pushed back by Jun Zifeng's sword energy.

At this moment, Gongsun Ce drew a circle with both hands at the same time, which was exactly the opposite of Tianyuan.

As he moved, two eyes of the void flashing with faint light appeared out of thin air, one located on the path that the Golden God must take to retreat.

These two eyes of the void seemed to possess mysterious power that could devour anything that tried to pass through them.

The Golden God was caught off guard and was sealed by two Void Eyes. He tried to struggle, but found that he could no longer move.

At this moment, Gongsun Ce clasped his hands together, and the two eyes of void immediately began to rotate in the opposite direction.

The golden god sealed inside seemed to have entered a turbulence of time and space, and his body began to be ruthlessly torn apart.

With the fall of the Golden God General, the entire battlefield fell into silence.

However, this did not mean the end of the battle. Haotian's will sensed the failure of the Golden God General and its own anger, and it decided to continue to send down heavenly punishment to punish Gongsun Ce, who dared to challenge its majesty.

However, Gongsun Ce did not choose to sit and wait for death. He smiled slightly in the direction of Haotian, and then decisively displayed his infinite magical power.

Gongsun Ce's figure disappeared from the spot, and appeared in Rehai the next moment. The eyes representing Haotian's will suddenly turned their gaze towards Rehai.

Gongsun Ce sensed the arrival of Haotian's will, so he took another step forward and came to the location of Nanjin Jiange.

When Liu Bai felt Gongsun Ce's arrival, his eyes lit up. He was a sword fanatic and was even known as the Sword Saint. Naturally, he was delighted to see the arrival of a top swordsman.

But he could not ignore Haotian's threat, so Liu Bai's figure suddenly appeared beside Gongsun Ce.

The next moment, Liu Bai's sword domain unfolded.

Sword masters all over the world often strive to take the enemy's head from thousands of miles away, but Liu Bai does the opposite. The three feet in front of him is Liu Bai's absolute territory.

Even when Haotian Tiannv took action in the later period, she was still approached by Liu Bai, and Liu Bai forcefully injected the power of the human world into her body.

Therefore, right after Liu Bai's sword domain was unfolded, Haotian lost Gongsun Ce's trace at the first moment. He was unable to detect Gongsun Ce's existence and left in disappointment.

"You are not from this world." Liu Bai looked at Gongsun Ce and said firmly, "And the one who achieved the extraordinary realm before also does not belong to this world, so do you know him?"

That person was probably my teacher. We came here at his invitation.

Gongsun Ce couldn't speak for the time being, so he made a pinky gesture, and the lake water in front of them suddenly rose and turned into words.

Liu Bai looked at the words written by Gongsun Ce using lake water as ink and glanced at Gongsun Ce with some surprise.

"You can't speak?"

Gongsun Ce's fingers moved again, and the lake water rearranged itself into new words: Not for now, but soon.

Gongsun Ce had already learned the characters of the Ever Night world when the Master gave him the book Gentleman is Not Intentional. Therefore, even if Gongsun Ce cannot speak, he can still communicate normally with Liu Bai.

"I see. I see you are also a swordsman. Can you fight me?"

Gongsun Ce continued to control the arrangement and combination of water flows: Now is not the time, we will fight again tomorrow and we must find a suitable venue.

"Okay." Liu Bai nodded, "We really need to find a way to hide our fight from Him."

Liu Bai did not say it explicitly, but he and Gongsun Ce both knew that this “He” was referring to Haotian.

Once Gongsun Ce fights with Liu Bai, the aura released will inevitably attract Haotian. Gongsun Ce does not want to have a decisive battle with Haotian for the time being, so Gongsun Ce wants to collect some interest first.

Gongsun Ce and Liu Bai sat opposite each other by the lake. Just because they couldn't actually fight, it didn't mean they couldn't debate swordplay.

"What is a sword to you, sir?"

Gongsun Ce drew out the Sun-Covering Sword, the Heavenly Question Sword and the Dragon Scale Sword one after another, and then the three swords floated in front of Gongsun Ce.

The water flow followed Gongsun Ce's movements and turned into words floating on the tops of the three swords.

Sun-covering Sword - Tools

Tianwen Sword - Partner

Dragon Scale Sword - Self

"The Divine Sword is a handy tool for you, the Emperor's Sword is a partner for you, and this sword made of special materials is a part of yourself?"

Liu Bai understood what Gongsun Ce meant. He then pointed to the lake beside him. The water suddenly became less turbulent and Liu Bai's sword was reflected on the calm water surface.

"This is my sword. My sword intent is called Great River Sword Intent. In order to nourish the sword, I put my life object into the lake to nurture the sword intent.

To me, it is like myself, yet more important than myself. This is my sword intent. Please let me see your sword intent."

Liu Bai was the first to display his Great River Sword Intent. He waved his right hand and a majestic sword intent gushed out like a great river. Wherever the sword energy reached, the grass and trees all bowed their heads.

This is Liu Bai's famous skill - the Great River Sword Intent.

The sword intent was like the Yellow River water coming from the sky, mighty and surging.

Liu Bai's right hand danced, and the sword intent flowed with it, sometimes like surging waves, sometimes like a steady stream.

Wherever the sword energy reached, it seemed as if even the air was cut apart, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Upon seeing this, Gongsun Ce took the Tianwen Sword that was floating in front of him into his hand. A surge of righteous energy surged out of his body, forming a confrontation with the Daha Sword Intent.

At this moment, Liu Bai suddenly changed his moves, and the sword intent of the river hung upside down and poured down like a waterfall.

The sword energy was like a waterfall dropping three thousand feet, as if the Milky Way was falling from the sky, it was extremely spectacular.

Gongsun Ce was shocked when he saw this, but he immediately adjusted his breath and fought back with the sword intent of a gentleman.

Gentleman Feng's sword intent was mighty and boundless, carrying with it a strong and plundering intention.

Gongsun Ce swung his sword, and the sword intent was like a polite robber who broke into a place, bowed, and then began to plunder everything.

This sword intent is completely different from Liu Bai's Dahe sword intent, but each has its own merits.

The two sword intentions collided in the air, making a deafening roar.

The sword energy spread out, and all the grass and trees on the top of the mountain were affected and fell down one after another.

Liu Bai and Gongsun Ce also swayed and took several steps back.

Liu Bai looked at Gongsun Ce, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He didn't expect that Gongsun Ce's gentlemanly swordsmanship was so exquisite and comparable to his majestic great river swordsmanship.

He had an idea and decided to try again to see if he could break Gongsun Ce's sword intent.

So, Liu Bai waved his hand again, and the sword intent of the river surged out again, but this time he added more changes.

I saw that the sword intent was sometimes like a rushing river, sometimes like a gurgling stream, sometimes like a waterfall, and sometimes like a long stream.

The changes were so exquisite that Gongsun Ce couldn't help but admire them.

Gongsun Ce was also shocked when he saw this. He knew that Liu Bai was going to go all out, and he had to use all his strength to deal with him.

As a result, the gentleman's sword intent became even more fierce.

The two sword intentions collided in the air again, and this time the collision was more intense than the last time.

The sword energy overflowed, as if it was going to tear the entire mountain top apart.

Liu Bai and Gongsun Ce also tried their best to display their respective sword skills, but this was just a competition and not a real battle.

The battle of sword intent ended here, so Gongsun Ce and Liu Bai withdrew their respective sword intents.

"Your swordsmanship is not bad, but it is not pure enough. For you, the sword is not everything."

Gongsun Ce moved his fingers, and the words on Shuiliu County changed: I also have other abilities to fight with, and swordsmanship is just one of the most handy ones.

"What is your sword path?" Liu Bai calmed down, "Most people in the world are not sincere enough when learning swordsmanship. They all pursue powerful strength, so they focus on mind power and ignore the sword itself when learning swordsmanship.

There are many people who can fly a sword thousands of miles away and kill people invisibly, but few have outstanding swordsmanship. Apart from Ke Haoran in his early years, I think the only one who is sincere in swordsmanship is Jun Mo, the second disciple of the Master.

However, Jun Mo also wanted to inherit Ke Haoran's sword. For him, the sword is not the only thing.

In my opinion, no matter how far away the sword can be from me, no matter how far away it can kill people, it is not as good as condensing endless sword energy within three feet in front of me and turning it into a sword domain. Within the sword domain, I am invincible. "

Gongsun Ce nodded. The sword masters in the Ever Night world all valued telekinesis over sword intent. Only Liu Bai was a swordsman who was loyal to the sword, not a sword master.

Gongsun Ce waved the Tianwen Sword in his hand, and the Yuan Energy of Heaven and Earth that was plundered by Jun Zifeng suddenly began to disintegrate.

He swung the sword lightly, and the power spread out in all directions like an activated beast, roaring.

In the blink of an eye, the power between heaven and earth began to be drawn by Gongsun Ce's gentlemanly sword intent.

The clouds in the distance began to gather, becoming denser and darker.

There were lightning and thunder in the clouds and strong winds, as if an unstoppable force was gathering.

As the wind howled, the water vapor in the clouds began to condense into raindrops, which became larger and denser.

Finally, after a deafening thunder, heavy rain poured down.

The rain seemed like a waterfall falling from the sky, washing everything on the top of the mountain.

Gongsun Ce and Liu Bai were both enveloped by the sudden heavy rain. The moment the rain fell, it slid away from Gongsun Ce and Liu Bai.

The heavy rain lasted for a whole hour before it gradually stopped.

After the clouds disappeared and the rain stopped, a beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky.

Gongsun Ce put away his sword and stood there quietly, admiring this rare beauty.

However, his heart was not completely calm because he knew this was just the beginning.

Sure enough, not long after, the power between heaven and earth changed again.

A blazing flame rose from the ground, instantly dyeing everything around it red.

The flame was like a fire dragon, tumbling and roaring in the air.

Immediately afterwards, a cold frosty air rushed in from all directions, freezing everything around, including the fire dragon, into ice sculptures.

Gongsun Ce swung his sword again, and the frosty air turned into countless ice crystals, floating down in the air.

Afterwards, trees, thunder, strong winds, huge waves...all kinds of forces between heaven and earth were constantly plundered and transformed by Gongsun Ce's gentlemanly sword intent.

Each transformation made his understanding of sword intent deeper, and also made his sword intent more powerful and subtle.
