Cloud Ascending Path, on the 109th step.
Xiao Yi's Sword Shadow danced, impenetrably.
The pressing force and Formation Wind couldn't harm him.
But that's all he could achieve.
He couldn't break through these forces to cross the 109th step.
To traverse the Cloud Ascending Path, one relied on their own skills.
Sword Dao, and the sword to wield it, all belonged to one's own skills.
In contrast, Martial Techniques, Secret Techniques, and other methods were external aids.

The reason for his astonishing combat achievements and his ability to slay a Saint Emperor largely rested on possessing various formidable methods.
At present, he wasn't using those methods.
