On the other side.
While Qin Changqing was roasting chicken on Tianti Road, battles were happening elsewhere.
Qin Lingshuang encountered someone blocking her path on the three-thousandth floor of the Tianti Road.
Qin Ruobing!
“I told you, I would stop you.” Qin Ruobing held a silver-white long sword, her aura as cold as snow, “Lingshuang, you are such a disappointment. The Qin family has served the royal family for generations, yet you now fight for the enemy and marry a Lingxiao Sect disciple, utterly disgraceful for the Qin family.”
Qin Lingshuang indifferently replied, “You should know that when my mother died, I had no connection with that family anymore. They didn’t care about my life or death back then, so what does it matter if I need the Qin family’s consent now?”
“But you still have the blood of the Qin family in your veins!”
“The blood of the Qin family…”
Qin Lingshuang’s eyes drooped, murmuring, “This bloodline has only brought me coldness and hatred. I would rather never have had it.’
“Since you refuse to repent, I’ll act on behalf of the Qin family and cleanse our ranks!”
Qin Ruobing had given up on trying to persuade her further.
She couldn’t disobey the Third Prince’s orders; initially, Qin Lingshuang was supposed to become his concubine, but now she had joined in a Taoist Couple with Qin Changqing. Naturally, the Third Prince could no longer marry her.
Besides, the original arranged marriage had been abruptly intercepted by another man, so even if the Third Prince didn’t care, he still felt uncomfortable.
Thus, Qin Lingshuang could only die.
After her failed persuasion, Qin Ruobing’s aura burst forth, reaching the level of Golden Elixir Peak in an instant!
“Golden Elixir… One-striped.” Qin Lingshuang’s gaze flickered slightly.
Before stepping onto the Tianti Road, she had communicated with Nangong Xue and roughly understood the power of the_three-striped through her.
It could be said that among the Golden Elixir Peak cultivators who practiced the three-striped, the gap between each level was significant.
A one-striped cultivator possessed a stronger aura than an ordinary Golden
Elixir Peak and had more delicate control over their power; their strength was unmatched by regular Golden Elixir Peak cultivators.
“Since you know, why not surrender!” Qin Ruobing took a step forward, her dancing skirt raising small frost tendrils as if trying to freeze the air itself.
Although she used a sword, she wasn’t a sword cultivator. However, she had already made small progress in the realm of frost, and her strength was among the top of the Golden Elixir Peak.
Facing this chilling strike, Qin Lingshuang remained expressionless, suddenly submerging herself into the state of selflessness.
The Selfless Sword Intent, devoid of self or others, with only single-minded devotion to the sword.
And the enemy before her eyes!
Clang!
The sharp sound of intersecting swords suddenly rang out. The collision of Sword Intent and frost released a powerful force, attracting those ascending the Tianti Road one after another.
Qin Lingshuang vs Qin Ruobing!
Most cultivators were relatively unfamiliar with Qin Lingshuang.
However, Qin Ruobing ranked high on the Outstanding Talents List, and the Qin family’s reputation wasn’t weak either.
At this moment, as the two engaged in a fierce battle, their collision provided an opportunity for the other cultivators to witness a contest of mastery.
Immediately, many people stopped to watch the confrontation between the two sisters.
Qin Ruobing primarily practiced ice-based techniques, her sword moves carrying a chilling frost. The frosty glimmer transformed into a blossoming plum flower, surrounding Qin Lingshuang and exploding thereafter. However, after Lingshuang entered the selfless state, her delicate control of the surrounding power had reached its peak. The plum flowers didn’t harm her at all; instead, the Selfless Sword Intent shot out, stabbing into the void and emerging from countless frost spears to attack Qin Ruobing.
Her face changed dramatically, never having expected her sister’s mastery of Sword Intent to reach such a level.
This was a clear suppression on the realm of enlightenment!
Sword cultivators were inherently skilled in offense, and Qin Lingshuang’s Sword Intent was unpredictable and impossible to guard against.
After a brief exchange, Qin Ruobing found herself being suppressed instead.This sight left the crowd astonished.
Qin Lingshuang was clearly only at Tier 4 Golden Elixir, if it could be said that
Qin Changqing at Tier 6 Golden Elixir could fight those at the Golden Elixir Peak because of his extraordinary talent, then was this Miss Qin even more extraordinary?
Or was it that a younger sister fighting an older sister had some kind of bonus effect?
“Could it be that the Tianti Road only suppresses Qin Ruobing?”
The crowd couldn’t help but wonder.
“Damn it!” Qin Ruobing, furious and anxious, never expected this outcome. However, since things had reached this point, she fought while retreating. As she manipulated her hand seals, frost spread out from beneath her, turning into an ice prison to trap Qin Lingshuang.
But in just a second, Qin Lingshuang swung her sword and the ice prison was forcibly opened. The dazzling coldness quickly condensed into countless sharp ice arrows, which like a torrential rain, closed in on Qin Lingshuang from the outside.
The sword moves transformed again, and Qin Lingshuang’s Selfless state had reached a high level of harmony. She could clearly sense the directions from which the ice arrows were coming without even using her spiritual sense and then counterattack.
This was instinctual, requiring no thought at all. This was the true meaning of the Selfless state.
In this state, Qin Lingshuang could perform at 100% or even higher.
“How is this possible!”
Seeing her moves being continuously deciphered, Qin Ruobing couldn’t believe it. Caught off guard, her arm was injured by sword qi, and Qin Lingshuang’s sword stopped less than half an inch from her throat.
The clarity returned to Qin Lingshuang’s eyes.
“You—”Qin Ruobing wanted to say something, but to her surprise, Qin Lingshuang lifted her leg and kicked her off the high Tianti Road.
Then, Qin Lingshuang sheathed her sword, turned around, and continued to walk upward.
Qin Lingshuang and Qin Ruobing’s fight naturally attracted a lot of attention. However, Tianti Road was just like that, with countless instances of weaker people winning against stronger opponents.
Of course, the fact that Qin Lingshuang managed to win over so many higher realms showed just how outstanding her combat power was.
“It’s strange, I can’t figure out what kind of Sword Intent that is,” MO Ziya stared at Qin Lingshuang curiously.
The others also looked on with interest.
Although surprised, they managed to keep their composure.
On the contrary, Lin Ruoyun very much appreciated Qin Lingshuang’s approach. She always had a soft spot for disciples with character. However, the thought that Qin Lingshuang already belonged to Qin Changqing made her feel like a beautiful flower was inserted in cow dung, and her mood immediately turned sour.
“I really don’t know why so many outstanding women would like him,” Lin Ruoyun shook her head secretly, determined not to let her daughter fall for the wrong person.
Among the onlookers, only Nangong Fu maintained an unhappy expression.
Especially when he saw Qin Ruobing being kicked off, his face turned green with anger.
However, he managed to restrain himself this time and did not make a fool of himself again.
Thus, three days passed quickly.
The Tianti Road was a long ‘journey.’ Everyone, to a greater or lesser extent, could gain some enlightenment while ascending it.
So for most cultivators, climbing the Tianti Road was not about how far you could climb, but rather how much you could comprehend.
Whenever they reached a major checkpoint, such as between one hundred and two hundred, one thousand and two thousand, a large number of cultivators would already be sitting down to meditate and recuperate.
The willpower on the Tianti Road originated from the ethereal immortal beings. Being able to comprehend even a little bit of the realm meant gaining limitless benefits.
After three days, the entire Tianti Road group gradually formed obvious differences.
Jian Yiyi and the others at the very front had already crossed the fifth thousandth step and were heading toward the sixth thousandth step.
The next batch was between the three thousandth and the five thousandth steps.
And the last batch was below three thousand steps.
Although Tianti Road did not solely assess one’s cultivation, it did take cultivation into account. Cultivation was a basic requirement, and other aspects were also needed to achieve a good ranking.
Thus, those who did not even meet the basic requirements were essentially eliminated within three days..
