Chapter 0259: Hundred Days of Seclusion, Sword Pointing to the Vault of Heaven to Break the Demon Barrier-Absolute Return

Under the darkened sky, the territory of the Heavenly Demon God Sect seemed to be shrouded by a layer of invisible haze, and in the midst of this haze, Jian Wuji was experiencing a major metamorphosis in his cultivation career.

Jian Wuji, the leader of the younger generation of the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect, had demonstrated an extraordinary talent for the Dao of the sword since he was young. His sword technique was powerful yet delicate, like the brightest star in the night sky, attracting attention. However, ever since that encounter with the Dark Spiteful Spirit, a seed of uneasiness had been planted in his heart – the regret of not being able to get a glimpse of the Evil Spirit’s true face pressed down on him like a huge stone, keeping him awake at night.

In order to untie this knot in his heart, Jian Wuji resolutely chose to go into seclusion for cultivation, vowing to cultivate the Nine Fire Demon Technique to the state of pure fire, with a view to one day being able to once again face that dark resentful spirit and unveil its mysterious veil.

The days of seclusion were long and boring, but Jian Wuji enjoyed them. He deeply knew that true cultivation was not just the exercise of the physical body, but also the sharpening of the mind. Thus, in addition to practicing sword arts diligently every day, he sat in meditation, attempting to fuse the four states of mind in his heart – killing, destroying, devouring, and controlling – into one, forming an indestructible force.

During this process, Jian Wuji experienced countless failures and setbacks, but he never gave up. Whenever it was late at night, he would come to the roof of the practice room alone, looking up at the sky full of stars, and silently reciting in his heart the words, “The Way of the Sword is limitless, and the heart has no end.” These words, as if they were a lighthouse in his heart, guided him to keep moving forward.

Finally, after a hundred days of seclusion, Jian Wuji ushered in his breakthrough. At that moment, it was as if he heard the sound of his blood veins boiling within him as an unprecedented power surged within him. His eyes snapped open, and a light of determination and resolve flashed in his eyes as he knew that he had finally taken that crucial step.

He unsheathed his sword, and the sword light was like a dragon, accompanied by a heaven-shattering “Human Extermination Style”, four brilliant sword lights instantly cut through the night sky, sweeping away all the obstacles in the practice room. At that moment, he clearly felt the terrifying power of the Nine Flames Devil Technique, and also felt the subtle connection between himself and this power.

“Is this the true Nine Flame Demon Technique?” Jian Wuji muttered, both shock and awe in his heart. He understood that although this power was powerful, it was also extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake could lead to the end of all life. Thus, he strengthened his belief to harness this power with his heart instead of being consumed by it.

After leaving the customs, Jian Wuji went to the Heavenly Demon Hall at the first opportunity to report his cultivation results to his father. When he once again executed the Human Extermination Style, even his father revealed a look of surprise. He knew deep down that his son’s rapid growth speed had exceeded his expectations, and there was both relief and worry in his heart.

“Wuji, your progress is indeed remarkable.” Father said in a serious tone, “However, you must also know that the path of cultivation is long and treacherous, you must not become complacent because of this.”

Jian Wuji nodded respectfully, stating that he would bear in mind his father’s teachings. However, the uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate. He vaguely sensed that the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect was facing an unprecedented crisis, and this crisis seemed to be related to the Poison King’s dissension.

In order to find out the truth, Jian Wuji decided to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the Poison King. He utilized his special status and position in the sect to quietly gather information about the Poison King. After some effort, he finally found some clues – the Poison King seemed to have some kind of unknown connection with the Alliance of Righteousness.

This discovery stunned Jian Wuji. He was well aware that the grudge entanglement between the Righteous Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect had lasted for hundreds of years, and the hatred between the two sides was almost impossible to dissolve. If the Poison King really colluded with the Righteous Alliance, then the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect was afraid that it would face extinction.

Thinking of this, Jian Wuji couldn’t help but feel a chill. He realized that he had to take action as soon as possible to stop this disaster from happening. Thus, he began to secretly contact the loyal disciples and elders of the sect, preparing to launch a surprise attack against the Poison King.

However, just as Jian Wuji was preparing for this operation in earnest, an unexpected piece of news came – the Alliance of the Righteous Dao had launched an all-out attack on the Heavenly Demon God Sect!

This news was like a bolt from the blue that shocked Jian Wuji. He did not expect the movements of the Righteous Alliance to be so swift and violent. In the face of this sudden crisis, he immediately summoned all the forces he could mobilize to the frontline to meet the battle.

The battle was both brutal and intense. Jian Wuji personally led the disciples of the Heavenly Demon God Sect to fight to the death against the cultivators of the Righteous Alliance. He wielded the longsword in his hand like an angry dragon as he traveled through the battlefield killing enemies. His swordsmanship was harsh and precise as each sword could take away the lives of his enemies.

However, as time went by, the advantages of the Alliance gradually appeared. Their cultivators were numerous and powerful, and they also possessed many powerful magic treasures and formations, which made the disciples of the Heavenly Demon God Sect fall into a bitter battle.

Jian Wuji was anxious in his eyes. He knew that if this continued, the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect would face extinction. So he made a bold decision – he was going to personally challenge the leader of the Righteous Alliance to change the situation!

This decision took all the disciples by surprise. They knew that the strength of the leader of the Righteous Alliance was by no means a match for ordinary people. However, Jian Wuji did not hesitate to step onto this path of no return.

He alone rushed into the formation of the Alliance of the Righteous by virtue of the power of the Nine Flames Demonic Technique and his extraordinary sword skills and the leader of the Alliance of the Righteous engaged in a fierce battle. The battle between the two was shocking and earth-shattering, causing the cultivators on the battlefield to look on.

After a bitter battle, Jian Wuji finally defeated the leader of the Alliance of the Righteous by virtue of his perseverance and wisdom. His victory was like a strong east wind that instantly blew away the haze on top of the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect’s head and reversed the entire battle situation.

Seeing this, the cultivators of the Alliance retreated one after another, while the disciples of the Heavenly Devil God Sect were greatly boosted in morale and pursued the attack, beating the enemy to a pulp. The crisis was finally resolved and Jian Wuji became the hero of the Heavenly Demon Sect, admired and worshipped by all the disciples.

However for Jian Wuji this victory did not make him feel satisfied and proud. He knew that the road of cultivation was still long and he still needed to work hard and make progress in order to survive in this cruel world. So he once again embarked on the journey of cultivation to find the higher and farther road of the sword road. ……
