Chapter 183: Tian Jing’s Dao Artifact
“It seems that indeed, we can use Spirit Law to observe closely.”
Many of the higher-ups present activated their Spirit Laws.
As Yang Shu and the others began to sense, their expressions changed drastically in the next moment.
“Is Spirit Law actually ineffective?”
“Not just that, it’s consuming my Spirit Sense! In just a short time, my Spirit Sense has weakened by thirty percent!”
“What is the situation with your Dao Artifact?”
Everyone quickly withdrew their Spirit Sense, looking at Tian Jing with lingering fear.
“This… I’m not sure either. Maybe this is the effect of the Dao Artifact?”
Tian Jing shrugged innocently.
The Dao Artifact floated aside, indicating that it was just an object, and this matter had nothing to do with it.
“This Dao Artifact is called the ‘Human Dao Red Cloud Sword,’ representing a certain amount of the idea of unity. Within the range of the red cloud, Spiritual Law masters are no different from ordinary people. In simple terms, it can negate the extraordinary; your Spiritual Laws are erased.” Yun Ye spoke up.
“What? There’s a Dao Artifact like that? Does that mean that once the Dao Artifact is activated, Tian Jing is completely invincible?”
“Can this move affect the law realms?!”
Everyone was shocked and quickly pressed for answers.
“It can’t. While this move follows rules, it has a limit. As long as that limit isn’t reached, it can do anything. But once the limit is reached, it becomes ineffective. The law realms far exceed that limit.”
“Relying on Tian Jing’s Dao Artifact to defeat the judges is unrealistic, unless the entire Baishi Town supports us. Only a tremendous level of support can turn into resonance, which gives us a slight chance.”
Yun Ye shook his head.
“That’s still impressive; it has the power to directly negate the extraordinary. Once it grows stronger, the law realms will be easily defeated by Tian Jing!”
Yang Shu laughed heartily.
“Oh, this kind of negation effect seems to be affecting me too… My Spirit Sense and Spiritual Law are also being consumed!”
Tian Jing suddenly said.
“What did you say?”
Everyone was taken aback.
The power of the Dao Artifact can even affect its master?
“It’s true! Look!”
Tian Jing stretched out his hand, trying to activate his Spiritual Law, but as the flames flared up, they were quickly extinguished, clearly showing that even he, the master, was not spared.
“…”
Everyone turned to look at Yun Ye.
“This is the source of Tian Jing’s power. If only he possesses the extraordinary, then he is a master, rather than implying unity.”
Yun Ye shook his head.
“Hiss, does that mean the Dao Artifacts of the Luo Dynasty might produce a master? They surely wouldn’t want any kind of unity!”
Everyone gasped in shock.
“It’s impossible,” Yun Ye said, “Other people’s Dao Artifacts cannot produce a unique power that stands alone against the world. That goes against the essence of Dao Artifacts; it’s completely impossible.”
Yun Ye didn’t understand why Dao Artifacts existed in this world, but that didn’t stop him from grasping their concept.
Dao Artifacts are the manifestation of a path; they gain power only when enough people travel that path.
First, it must align with the idea of ‘the majority’ to obtain the corresponding strength.
Most people lack the extraordinary, so Tian Jing could manifest it only after giving up his own extraordinary abilities.
If he wanted to be extraordinary while others were not, he would represent a tiny minority.
“So under this Dao Artifact, we can only rely on physical strength?”
The crowd avoided pondering too far ahead.
“My physical body is also declining, but I am still stronger than ordinary people, though it’s very limited. If more people come, I will be overpowered.”
Tian Jing said.
“Physical Law can’t counteract this negation? That’s actually quite favorable! The higher the realm, the stronger the physique. If it merely negates Spirit Law and Spiritual Law, the gap would still be immense.”
Tong Huo Yang added.
“Indeed, each type of law has tremendous abilities, and Physical Law happens to be the one that aristocratic families are best at. If it only negates Spirit Law and Spiritual Law, we would be at a huge disadvantage.”
Everyone nodded.
Spirit Law belongs to a realm that major families find difficult to touch; since no one knows it, the gap is smaller.
From his second life until now, Yun Ye hadn’t created a single Spirit Artifact. The only one he had was taken from Chao Zizhong, and it only had defensive effects, unable to serve as an offensive or auxiliary tool.
Spirit Laws are indeed very rare, far more challenging to master than Physical Law; a few Spiritual Herbs won’t solve it.
“Next is Huo Yang.”
Yun Ye said.
Tong Huo Yang nodded and manifested his own Dao Artifact, which was a silver balance scale.
“Rice, the form of the artifact seems quite different? Why does your artifact resemble Shi’er’s so much?”
Yang Shu remarked, his expression changing.
Everyone raised their brows, realizing this question as well.
The two newly born Dao Artifacts did not resemble the Dao Sword of the Path of Tomorrow at all!
Tian Jing’s was somewhat red and also sword-shaped.
But Tong Huo Yang’s was a balance scale, which changed entirely to silver color; the difference was too striking.
In comparison, the Dao Artifacts of Yang Shi and Rice, according to Tong Huo Yang and Wang Yao’s descriptions, were exactly the same.
There wasn’t a hint of difference!
“Everyone interprets the Dao differently, so the shapes they take will vary. If the Dao undergoes a significant shift, the Dao Artifact will change as well or even crumble.”
“Tian Jing pursues slaying all enemies with a sword, resulting in the Human Dao Red Cloud Sword. Huo Yang seeks justice, leading to the birth of the judgment scale. My master seeks guidance and progress, bringing forth the Dao Sword of Tomorrow.”
“Although they all aim for the Path of Tomorrow and wish to welcome the correct future, their understanding of details and means to achieve those goals differ vastly, which is why their Dao Artifact forms vary too greatly.”
“And the reason my form is the same as my master’s is that our philosophies of the road are completely aligned. If anyone shares my philosophy, they can obtain the same form.”
Yun Ye was indeed speaking the truth; after all, he and Yang Shi were the same person.
Could it be any different?
Once others approach his ideologies, their Dao Artifact forms would align with him, possibly acquiring an identical Dao Sword of Tomorrow, just without the Dao Spirit.
Analyzing the situation this way, Tian Jing’s understanding of the Path of Tomorrow surpasses Tong Huo Yang’s.
The others might understand more strongly, but without the belief to execute it, they can’t even condense a Dao Artifact, making discussions unnecessary.
“Understanding the Path of Tomorrow? I have studied the philosophies left by Shi’er, thoroughly grasping every sentence. It seems I still haven’t completely understood, nor do I have the corresponding belief to match…”
Yang Shu said with a bitter smile and shook his head.
The spirit needs to be tempered. During the Mingzhu Village period, his Spiritual Will was undoubtedly robust, possibly meeting the conditions to awaken a Dao Artifact.
But now, there’s no space to sharpen himself, and… Yun Ye’s philosophies left behind were very shallow, merely reiterating theories without any sense of power.
In simple terms, what Yang Shu needs now is—
A great literary master!
Someone who would say, “Actually, there was no path at all on the ground; when enough people walk it, it becomes a path.”
Yun Ye’s hastily penned words were far from enough to resonate, incapable of allowing the spirit to penetrate the paper and settle into the mind. If Yun Ye had the level of a literary master, those few pages might make spirits surge, perhaps genuinely increasing the chance of awakening a Dao Artifact.
