Hidden Sword Sect, the world's number one swordsman, Liu Yibai, had been in seclusion for many days. The higher-ups of the Hidden Sword Sect were all anxiously waiting. They knew that Liu Yibai was in seclusion to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage and become a Martial Saint. Once successful, the Hidden Sword Sect would have a Martial Saint presiding over it again. This was of utmost importance for the Hidden Sword Sect!

However, so many days had passed, and there was no sign of movement. For a time, some of the innate elders of the Hidden Sword Sect were a little restless.

"Could it be..."

Some elders were worried in their hearts. They were about to speak to the sect master.

"Boom."

Suddenly, a huge Spiritual Qi vortex appeared in the void. A terrifying pressure emanated from the mountain.

"This is..."

Everyone's expressions were shocked, but there was a hint of joy in their eyes. That direction was the mountain where Liu Yibai was. Many people knew what was going on in their hearts. They all had a bold guess, but no one said it out loud.

Time passed little by little. About four hours later, the Spiritual Qi vortex disappeared.

"Clang."

A dazzling sword light flew out from the mountain and instantly rushed to the sky. At the same time, a vast momentum swept across the entire Hidden Sword Sect!

"Whoosh."

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the direction where Liu Yibai was. Then, they saw a figure. Liu Yibai!

Liu Yibai indeed appeared. He took step by step, incredibly crossing the air, walking in the void. He came to everyone's front.

Everyone was excited in their hearts. They were all martial arts masters of the Hidden Sword Sect. Naturally, they knew the significance of crossing the air and walking in the void.

"Elder Liu, have...have you taken that step?" An elder couldn't help but ask.

Liu Yibai nodded and said, "Yes, I have successfully built the foundation and stepped into the realm of Martial Saint!"

Liu Yibai's words made everyone in the Hidden Sword Sect incredibly excited.

The Hidden Sword Sect had a history of over a thousand years. It's not because they had many martial artists neither their swordsmanship was exquisite, but because of the Martial Saints!

Martial Saints born within the Hidden Sword Sect were not just one or two. The birth of each Martial Saint could preside over the Hidden Sword Sect for hundreds of years. That almost guaranteed the brilliance of the Hidden Sword Sect for hundreds of years.

Several Martial Saints had come out of the Hidden Sword Sect. Each Martial Saint could guard the Hidden Sword Sect for three hundred to five hundred years. Several Martial Saints could last for a thousand years. This was the essence of the Hidden Sword Sect!

What extreme devotion to the sword, what the number one sword in the world, what harsher on oneself, all of these were useless. The Martial Saint was the guarantee of the Hidden Sword Sect!

Since three hundred years ago, when the Martial Saint of the Hidden Sword Sect passed away, the power of the Hidden Sword Sect had been declining day by day. Facing the aggressive immortal sects, the Hidden Sword Sect was in constant retreat. It totally lost the spirit of being the number one martial arts sect. Even the Martial Arts Alliance. In fact, it was established by the Hidden Sword Sect. And the result? It was messed up by a Guardian Primordial Mountain.

Now, the Hidden Sword Sect finally gave birth to a Martial Saint. They could finally hold their heads high. They no longer feared those immortal sects.

"A Martial Saint, it's really a Martial Saint!"

"Hahaha, our Hidden Sword Sect finally has a Martial Saint again!"

"With a Martial Saint presiding, our Hidden Sword Sect can ensure hundreds of years of glory!"

For a time, many elders and martial arts masters were extremely excited. Liu Yibai's eyes also carried a hint of pride.

"Now, I am finally not inferior to others. I, the Number One Sword Under Heaven, should not be inferior to the Number One Saber Under Heaven. As for the conflict between the saber and the sword, I do want to spar with Lin Fei again."

Liu Yibai also had pride in his heart. Originally, he was the number one sword in the world and he was a martial arts Grand Master early on.

And the result?

"Immortal Slayer Saber" Lin Fei emerged. Later, he became the Number One Saber Under Heaven. In the world, the number of saber users kept increasing. On the other hand, the number of swordsmen was decreasing. It was impossible for Liu Yibai to not have any thoughts about this.

All were martial artists. How could they be willing to lag behind?

His sword had not shown its edge in the world for thirty years. And now, it was time to show his sword! Once he made a move, it would be the Sword of the Martial Saint!

"Uh..."

Compared to Liu Yibai's ambition and warlike spirit even thinking of sparring with Lin Fei the Number One Saber Under Heaven, the sect master and many elders had somewhat unnatural expressions on their faces.

"Elder Liu, Lin Fei the Martial Saint of Nine Profound Sect, cut down Foundation Establishment True Person Yuankong Zi with his saber, his strength is unfathomable. Even though Elder Liu has become a Martial Saint, he has not yet consolidated his power. If you rashly take action, I'm afraid..."

The sect master hesitated to say. Liu Yibai was not an ordinary martial artist. He was the number one sword in the world! He represented the Hidden Sword Sect.

If he really competed with Lin Fei, in case he lost, the one who would be damaged would only be the Hidden Sword Sect. This was the burden of reputation.

Liu Yibai frowned. He wanted to say something more. Suddenly, a disciple of the Hidden Sword Sect flew to the front of the crowd.

"Report! The Martial Saint of Nine Profound Sect, Lin Fei, in one day, successively wiped out the Fairy Crane Sect and the Water Moon Sect, two major immortal sects! The two major immortal sects' lineage was severed, and all members of the immortal sects were slaughtered to the last man!"

As soon as the disciple's words fell, the elders, the sect master of the Hidden Sword Sect, and even Liu Yibai were all shocked. Deep inside, they were stirred with shock and horror.

Lin Fei's cutting down of the Foundation Establishment True Person, although shocking enough, some Martial Saints had done it before. However, destroying two major immortal sects and severing their lineages was truly too shocking! After all, those immortal sects' mountain-protecting formations were not so easy to break through.

As soon as Liu Yibai heard, he understood the gap between him and Lin Fei. So, Liu Yibai sighed deeply and said with a bitter smile, "I originally thought that after I became a Martial Saint, I could compete with Lin Fei. But now it seems, not only is the gap not closing, but it seems to be getting bigger and bigger..."

Liu Yibai knew very well. A martial artist like Lin Fei, with his unparalleled talent, once surpassed, would be too difficult for Liu Yibai to catch up again.

"However, slaughtering two major immortal sects, this is no small matter. Especially in the current situation, those ancient immortal sects will not sit idly by. Our Hidden Sword Sect is also a major martial arts sect, we can't just stand by. Perhaps, I'll have to draw my sword this time. Hiding the sword for thirty years, today I show it to you. Hahaha, I'm off..."

Liu Yibai, one man, one sword, laughing heartily as he flew out of the Hidden Sword Sect, heading straight for the Nine Profound Sect.

...

"Boom."

In a deserted mountain, in the void, a huge Spiritual Qi vortex suddenly appeared. A massive amount of heaven and earth Spiritual Qi poured down. Several hours later, a long howl sounded from the deserted mountain.

"Hahaha, I have succeeded in building my foundation, today I finally become a Martial Saint!"

Following this, a heaven-reaching and earth-piercing saber light, emitting unparalleled dominance and sharpness, instantly erupted from the desolate mountain, breaking through the void. Even the Spiritual Qi vortex in the sky was instantly split apart by this saber light.

Shen Lianxin, step by step, traversed the air, walking in the void.

Martial Saint!

Shen Lianxin had also finally achieved Martial Saint!

"Brother Lin, I have finally not lagged too far behind you. I wonder, whose saber is sharper now? Or even, who is the real Number One Saber Under Heaven?"

A glint flashed in Shen Lianxin's eyes. In literature, there is no first place, but in martial arts, there is no second place! He was also a saber practitioner. His heart was also very proud. In the beginning, he lost to Lin Fei. And now, he had finally become a Martial Saint. Naturally, Shen Lianxin also wanted to try whose saber was the real Number One Saber Under Heaven.

"Swoosh."

In the next moment, Shen Lianxin did not want to delay even for a moment. Stepping the void, he headed toward the direction of the Nine Profound Sect.
