I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 2859: Chapter 1516 Mei Ziyu Stops Striving for Fame, Sowing Seeds at the Door Loses Life and Death_2
 

“`

He finally understood why Master Siren had offered that one piece of advice previously, but still allowed Elder Gu his freedom in the end, without any unnecessary interference.

It’s too beautiful!

The Way of transcendence that is beyond this world, who wouldn’t be moved?

But just like Gu Yu’s past conflicted choices, this was also a path destined for defeat and death!

With such a flawed foundation in the Great Path, how could Gu Yu survive forcibly opening the Mystical Gate of the Secular Sword?

But from another perspective…

Who could stop fireworks from blooming splendidly?

At this moment, Xu Xiaoshou could only appreciate and ponder.

“Perception” was able to detect all the ancient swordsmen present, as well as the Spiritual Cultivators, each of them deeply moved.

Mei Siren covered his face with a fan, staring absent-mindedly, the fan painted with a school, two withered trees, and the lonely silhouette of a solitary figure on a meditation cushion.

The light scattered on the paper fan as if it were blossoming with the fragrance of peach and plum.

Lei Shuangxing slightly tilted his head back, his expression stunned, the Divine-beating Crutch in his hand buzzing and vibrating, signifying that his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.

The light fell on his eye-covering cloth, as if decorating new eyes upon the world.

Li Fuyu’s red lips parted slightly, also staring at that Mystical Gate opening at the apex of the sword tower.

She saw a figure with an indistinct face walk out from within the gate, and with a casual swing of the sword, divine light sprinkled across the five regions, descending with the “Way” of the sword.

Suddenly snapping to awareness, Li Fuyu returned from the “Mysteries” of the Mystical Gate, realizing that everyone around her was immersed in it.

“The Path…”

The Path, is invisible and intangible.

Yet, the Path can also be transmitted.

Coming from the sword tower, Li Fuyu, after mingling with the world, never underestimated the ancient swordsmen of this world.

The previous generation of Sword Humans of the sword tower told her that the Sword Humans of the sword tower only ever guarded “the Sword,” not “the Path.”

The Path is not locked in the tower, the Path is in the world.

The era of the ancient swordsmen has long passed, to be able to continue passing down in the Spiritual Cultivation Era, the sword tower only played a role like a guiding star.

The ones truly naming the nameless Path, and walking the unwalkable Path, are the people of the world!

Among them, there must be dazzling geniuses like Bazhun’an who amassed the strengths of all, leading the times uniquely, with unmatched elegance;

There must also be downward-compatible individuals like Mei Siren, who impart the Path and teach, carrying forward the essence of a hundred schools, encouraging the people in their modesty;

There are also new generations like Xiao Kongtong, Beibei, and Feng Zhongzui, who serve as the pillars of heritage, adhering to their own Path, and innovating upon the old;

Of course, there must be individuals like Elder Gu Yu, who in the end, burned themselves up, transformed into ashes, all to prove the correct direction.

Every person in the transmission of the Path of the Ancient Swordsman plays an indispensable role, whether they are aware of it or not.

It’s precisely this small group of people, who painstakingly forge ahead under the deluge of the Spiritual Cultivation Era.

And what they get in return is nothing but a meager hope for a wee bit of acknowledgment…

Fame!

…

Under the Mystical Gate, the Upanishad of the Great Path emerges.

Gu Yu turned around clearly, looking like he was struck by a Heavenly Abandon, his clothes and skin disappearing bit by bit, a literal merger with the light and dust.

He was clearly saying something!

In the Arena, facing the Dao Imparting Mirror, everyone eagerly strained their ears, hoping to catch some meaning.

Gu Yu was clearly speaking, but no one could hear the words from his mouth, nor grasp the meaning he wished to express.

The Path that can be tread is not the eternal Path.

The name that can be named is not the eternal name.

Xu Xiaoshou even tried to understand what Elder Gu was saying using the Lip Reading Technique, only to eventually realize he had been fixated on the wrong thing.

Perhaps this moment was truly when Gu Yu was closest to the True Will of the Path, closest to Godhood-Sealing and Ancestor, but it was his opportunity.

Even if he wanted to leave something behind, his original intention was to prove the Path for the people.

But when it involves that level, even the Holy Emperor would be forgotten by the people, how could what he gained leave any trace?

The crowd saw an increasing desperation in Gu Yu’s eyes, his expression, and even his hands started moving, gesturing something toward the Dao Imparting Mirror.

Bathed in divine light, carrying the Mystical Gate on his back, he descended from Heaven, truly an Immortal of the Sword.

But exactly because he was so ethereal, unworldly, he seemed to have an insurmountable chasm separating him from humanity.

Communication impossible!

Unattainable aspirations!

This was never the intention of Gu Yu.

Mei Siren put down the paper fan, returning as well from the “Mysteries,” looked fiercely at Xu Xiaoshou, about to speak…

In that very instant, Xu Xiaoshou saw Gu Yu’s mouthing and hand gestures come to a halt, then he fixed his gaze firmly on him.

“Sizz!”

Every hair on his body stood on end in an instant, as if he was marked by the god of death.

The Information Bar also jumped:

“Ambushed, Passive Points +1.”

Sharp as he was, Xu Xiaoshou didn’t need any reminders from Master Siren to know what Gu Yu meant in this moment:

Explanations fail to express.

But this third sword is prepared for you.

If you can withstand it… surely, without saying, without stating, upon your very body, you ought to realize?

“Come on!”

Xu Xiaoshou shouted.

Fearing that Elder Gu couldn’t hear his voice, he even stretched out a finger, provocatively beckoning him.

But shout as he might, how could he be careless with the Mystical Gate opened by the Third Realm!

Rules of ancient swordsmen’s duel forgotten, his animalistic instincts ignited in his mind…

“Boom!”

The Raging Giant enters the Arena!

“Roar!”

The Ultimate Giant lowers its gaze!

“Hum!”

The Life Dao Disc unfolds!

“Human Realm Dao!”

Combination of the Six Paths of ancient martial arts!

“Meow~”

Err, ghost beast form…

It’s not a joke, at this moment, Xu Xiaoshou was truly frightened.

He tapped into every endurance boost he could muster, to avoid being instantly slain by Elder Gu.
