Chapter 610: Sword Slash
Wanyu Sword Gate, Chenghua Hall.
A man in a Daoist robe leaned lazily against the doorframe, his eyes half-closed as he calculated with his fingers, "At the Green Pine Temple… things seem to have settled quite a bit. It seems that the five True Monarchs did not encounter the person they were waiting for and have since taken the Unspeaking Bell away. No matter how I calculate, he would never have appeared there, so naturally, they dispersed."
He yawned, but suddenly his expression grew serious. A clattering sound erupted from inside the hall. Startled, the man hurriedly stepped inside. In just a few strides, he reached the upper dais, where a Daoist scripture rested.
The scripture had a deep blue cover and pale yellow pages, appearing utterly unremarkable. Yet, without wind, its pages fluttered and turned on their own.
The pages finally settled, glowing with a faint green-white light as a few characters shone brightly—Qingche.
A few lines down, two smaller words lit up—Celestial Moon.
The green-white light flickered a few more times before fading away. The word Qingche remained faintly illuminated, while Celestial Moon quickly dimmed into dull gray ink, lifeless and ordinary.
The man paused, a subtle trace of sorrow in his voice as he muttered softly, "The last trace of Celestial Moon Sword Intent… is no longer in this world."
He furrowed his brow but soon revealed a hint of hope, "Perhaps that young Sword Immortal Wang might still have a lingering trace of it… but alas, he is currently learning the Dao before the True Monarch. Even the Wanyu Sword Book cannot calculate his fate!"
