Looking at the Dao Discussion Platform, Ning Tian stood there gracefully, facing several prodigies alone. Yin Sanshi couldn't help but grit his teeth and let out a heavy snort.

Then, he turned to leave.

"Junior Brother Sanshi, where are you going?"

Just as Yin Sanshi turned around, Li Changsheng's voice came from the side.

"To the restroom. Why? Could it be that Senior Brother Li is interested in men going to the restroom?" Yin Sanshi glanced at Li Changsheng indifferently.

"Not at all."

Li Changsheng smiled slightly, "It's just that the Heavenly Demon Sect is vast, and I'm afraid Junior Brother Sanshi might get lost, so I thought I'd see you off."

"No need." Yin Sanshi waved his hand, "I have a habit; I can't pee if someone is following me."

After saying that, he turned and left the Dao Discussion Platform.

Watching Yin Sanshi's departing figure, a glint flashed in Li Changsheng's eyes. He then signaled a disciple to pass this information to the Great Elder.

These people from the Shadow Demon Sect need to be watched closely.

After leaving the Dao Discussion Platform, Yin Sanshi went to a secluded corner. Ensuring no one was around, he activated the communication jade stone, and the voice of the old man with the hooked nose came through.

"Sanshi, how did it go? Did you manage to humiliate the Heavenly Demon Sect?"

The old man's voice carried a hint of confidence.

Clearly, he had great confidence in this disciple of his.

"No."

Yin Sanshi's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth, "Patriarch, it was ruined by the legendary Patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Sect. You should come over soon."

"Oh?"

"Even you failed?"

Upon hearing this, the old man with the hooked nose was somewhat surprised, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes, "In that case, just wait for us to arrive."

With that, the projection on the communication jade stone disappeared, cutting off the connection.

"Hmph!"

"So what if you can talk? When we force the palace later, your Heavenly Demon Sect will still lose face!"

Yin Sanshi snorted coldly.

Then, he turned and headed back to the Dao Discussion Platform.

...

...

On the Dao Discussion Platform.

A group of prodigies was drenched in cold sweat, looking in shock at the smiling young man before them.

This legendary Patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Sect was terrifying!

Facing their collective challenge, he was completely unfazed!

They had no way to counter him!

Meanwhile, the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect were growing more and more in awe of Ning Tian. Such a Patriarch was simply godlike!

"How amazing..."

"Is this Patriarch an all-rounder?"

The group of prodigies had bitter smiles on their faces. No matter what Dao they discussed, Ning Tian could handle it.

"I'll go!"

At this moment, a voice rang out. Ling Ao, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't sit still. With a shout, he leaped down and landed in front of Ning Tian.

"Finally, he's making a move!"

"Now, this will be interesting!"

Seeing Ling Ao take action, the group of prodigies and the Heavenly Demon Sect disciples all had their eyes light up!

One of the strongest prodigies was finally making a move!

Could the Patriarch still hold his ground?

"I am Ling Ao from the Lingxu Sect, and I ask the Patriarch for guidance!" Ling Ao bowed to Ning Tian and spoke slowly.

Ning Tian looked at him and asked, "What Dao do you wish to discuss?"

"Sword, I wish to discuss the Sword Dao."

A gleam flashed in Ling Ao's eyes as he patted the sword at his waist.

"Sword Dao?"

Ning Tian was momentarily stunned, then his eyes lit up, nodding.

After so long, someone finally wanted to discuss the Sword Dao with him.

Since the system had helped him comprehend the sword intent of "Sword," he hadn't had the chance to use it.

Now was the perfect time to test the power of this sword intent martial art!

"It's the Sword Dao!"

"Ling Ao's greatest strength is the Sword Dao!"

"I wonder if the Patriarch can still withstand it."

Hearing that Ling Ao wanted to discuss the Sword Dao, the group of prodigies understood that he was serious.

Ling Ao's greatest strength was indeed the Sword Dao!

"Come on!"

Ling Ao's lips curled into a confident smile, and he slowly drew the sword from his waist.

"This Shadow Sword is a treasure-grade weapon!"

Ling Ao held up the Shadow Sword in his hand. The blade was white, and the hilt was black, shimmering with a faint light, revealing its extraordinary nature!

"A treasure-grade weapon!"

Hearing Ling Ao's words, many people gasped, a hint of envy flashing in their eyes.

Weapons were graded into: magical artifacts, spiritual artifacts, treasure artifacts, immortal artifacts, and divine artifacts!

Above divine artifacts, there were even higher grades, but those were beyond everyone's understanding.

In the entire Tianling Domain, let alone divine artifacts, even treasure artifacts were hard to come by.

So, naturally, treasure artifacts were extremely precious!

Unexpectedly, the sword in Ling Ao's hand was a treasure artifact. It seemed the Lingxu Sect valued him greatly!

"A treasure, huh?"

Ning Tian murmured, but he wasn't too worried. Weapons were more of a support; the key lay in the user!

"Patriarch, why don't you have a sword?"

Ling Ao asked Ning Tian, holding his sword.

"I don't have a sword."

Ning Tian shook his head.

Ling Ao frowned, "How can we discuss the Sword Dao without a sword?"

"Patriarch, I have a good sword!"

"I have one too, Patriarch, use mine!"

"Me, me, me! I also have one, and it's a spiritual artifact-grade!"

"Patriarch, use mine, and sign it for me while you're at it!"

When the group heard that Ning Tian had no sword, their eyes lit up, and they excitedly pulled out their swords, shouting at Ning Tian.

"No need."

Ning Tian smiled, politely declining their offer, "Though I don't have a physical sword, I have another kind of sword."

"Another kind of sword?"

Hearing Ning Tian's words, the group was taken aback.

They saw Ning Tian slowly raise his hand, spiritual energy emerging from his body, channeling the sword intent martial art. A sword formed from spiritual energy appeared in his hand!

"This is!"

"A sword formed from spiritual energy?"

Seeing this, Ling Ao gasped.

"Your sword intent has reached a masterful level!?"

In an instant, Ling Ao's face turned extremely grim.

The sword formed from spiritual energy, with its violent sword intent inadvertently released, transformed into a dragon, fiercely striking a distant cliff.

Boom!

Instantly, the cliff was pierced by the sword intent, creating a large hole, and it collapsed in an instant!

Swish, swish!

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened, looking at Ning Tian.

"Ahem, slipped, slipped..."

Ning Tian scratched his head. Although he had comprehended the sword intent, he wasn't yet proficient, leading to the earlier scene.

"This..."

Seeing this, Ling Ao swallowed with difficulty and sighed, "Patriarch, I concede. In this discussion of the Sword Dao, I lost."

Just the sword intent transforming into a dragon made him realize he was bound to lose.

The sword intent he and Ning Tian comprehended were on completely different levels.

"Huh?"

"Not going to fight?"

Hearing Ling Ao's words, Ning Tian frowned. He hadn't even tested the power yet.

"Not going to fight..."

Ling Ao shook his head. Admitting defeat was better than humiliating himself.

"Then Yaochi Saintess, will you fight?"

Wanting to unleash his sword intent, Ning Tian could only turn his gaze to the Yaochi Saintess. Among the prodigies present, she was the only one who hadn't made a move.

"Patriarch, I didn't come to discuss Dao. I mainly came to..." The Yaochi Saintess hadn't finished speaking.

Suddenly, within the Heavenly Demon Sect, dark clouds gathered above the Dao Discussion Platform, and a powerful Emperor Realm aura instantly enveloped the entire Heavenly Demon Sect!
