Chapter 124.2

Meanwhile, the events of the day were spreading throughout the land at lightning speed.

Thousands of martial artists fought over a divine sword, and they all died?

Its said that the divine sword is too fierce, weighing over 3000 jin, capable of emitting flames on its own, and even Innate Astral Qi cant defend against it! So, in order to obtain this divine sword, everyone went into a frenzy!

The slaughter was so tragic, in the end, they all died!

This isnt a divine sword at all, its clearly a demonic sword, bringing death to so many as soon as it appeared in the world!

The most bizarre thing is that the magic sword actually recognizes that foolish emperor as its master?

Indeed, its bizarre. How could the divine sword choose him?

Although the divine sword was ominous, bringing slaughter upon its emergence, many people still coveted this blade.

Thus, martial artists often scaled the walls of the imperial palace to steal the sword.

At that moment, someone confronted Lin Beifan, threatening loudly, Hand over the divine sword, or Ill take your life!

Lin Beifan calmly pointed to the side and said.

The sword is over there. Help yourself!

The man turned his head and saw it, his excitement palpable: The divine sword is indeed here!

Without hesitation, he charged forward, reaching out to grasp the divine sword.

And then

There was no then, for the divine sword unleashed a burst of flames, instantly incinerating him to ashes.

Doesnt he weigh his own strength? Delusional to think he could take away the divine sword?

Lin Beifan had someone open the window, and the ashes were blown away by the wind through it.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

Following this, many more experts infiltrated the imperial palace, each aiming to seize the divine sword.

Lin Beifan was very cooperative, but every person who touched the sword was burned to ashes by it, regardless of whether they were ordinary martial artists or Innate martial artists; all met the same fate, with not even their bones remaining.

Everyone was terrified, but the reputation of the demonic sword grew even more fearsome.

This really is a demonic sword, whoever touches it dies!

Why didnt that foolish emperor die when he touched it?

That foolish emperor is the swords master, so naturally, he was unharmed!

That divine sword has gone mad, why would it acknowledge that foolish emperor as its master? He doesnt even use it, what a waste of heavens gifts!

So, will you learn or not? the old man asked expectantly.

Lin Beifan shook his head: I will not learn!

The old man:

One reason is that I have no time to learn, and the second is that you really cant teach me anything! Lin Beifan explained.

Cant teach you? Youre saying that I, a person of over a hundred years, cant teach you anything?

The old man became angry: Then today we must have a proper discussion to see if this old man is qualified to teach you!

With that, he charged towards Lin Beifan.

You must not harm His Majesty! Liu Eunuch stepped forward, shouting loudly.

Rest assured, this old man would hate to hurt him. Im even thinking of taking him as my disciple! the old man said.

Lin Beifan waved his hand: Liu Eunuch, let him come! I will show him what it means to understand how high the sky is and how thick the earth is!

How arrogantly conceited!

The old man had already approached Lin Beifan, cupping his hands and saying, Please enlighten me!

Lin Beifan smiled faintly and said, I know of a sword, a sword without shadow, without form, even without substance, but it can always anticipate the enemys moves, striking later but arriving first and overcoming the enemy to win. Do you know what kind of sword that is?

The old man frowned and said, What kind of sword is that? Why have I never heard of it in my hundred years of wandering through the rivers and lakes?

Lin Beifan smiled and replied, Because this is a sword of the heart. Its technique follows the heart; it is inherently shadowless and formless, even intangible! You cannot see this sword, so naturally, you cannot see its flaws. If someone doesnt even have a sword technique, how can you possibly counter it? This is the essence of this sword, as the saying goes: To win with no sword is better than with a sword, to win with no move is better than with a move!'

The old man exclaimed, What a phrase! To win with no sword is better than with a sword, to win with no move is better than with a move! This truly is an exceptional sword, the ultimate truth of the sword path! If one could reach this realm, they would indeed be invincible in the world!

Lin Beifan asked, How does your sword compare to this one?

The old man replied with a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, It does not compare. I have practiced the sword for over a hundred years, but I am still fixated on the sword in my hand! If the sword exists, I exist; if the sword perishes, I perish. Without my sword, my strength would be greatly reduced!

Therefore, I fall short in many ways compared to that sword. I am ashamed!

Lin Beifan nodded, Its good that you can recognize this.
