Saying it shocked heaven and earth, moved gods and ghosts, would not be an exaggeration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sword strike amazed the mortal world and became that man’s legendary battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, for unknown reasons, this secret technique ended up in the hands of the Swordless Mountain and became their most guarded secret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The greatest flaw of the technique is that the sword intent it condenses can only be used once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, no matter how long you’ve spent condensing your sword intent, once you release it, you can’t use it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You must start condensing from scratch to use it another time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And condensing sword intent takes time, it definitely can’t be done in a short period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that rogue cultivator before, after unleashing three thousand years of sword intent, all his efforts disappeared in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, as sword intent surrounded Swordless, the energy he had condensed began slowly releasing from his body as the core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Swordless is using his trump card this time,” Heaven-Edge commented from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swordless was the founder of the Swordless Mountain. It’s said that ever since the sect obtained this secret technique, Swordless was the first to practice it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he began, he had never released it once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the Swordless Mountain, this condensed sword intent was more like a last-resort, life-saving move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wouldn’t let years of effort go to waste unless facing absolute danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Swordless’ sword intent must have been building for hundreds of years,” Jian Yihai said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder how powerful it will be. I never thought I’d get to witness this today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sword intent around Swordless grew thicker, Jiang Dianfeng’s eyes began to show concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure from that sword intent grew heavier, like dark clouds, lightning, thunder, and a looming storm pressing down on everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speed of the sword intent's release accelerated, quickly covering the entire sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swordless had no sword, because he himself was a sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sword intent had reached a critical threshold. Veins began bulging on his skin, and cracks started appearing, as if his body could break at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, all three launched their attacks simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Swordless’s strike, the other two’s attacks looked dim and pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword strike represented hundreds of years of effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the most brilliant moment of this technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sword fell, the world flipped upside down. Sun and moon lost their light, rivers flowed backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The empty sky seemed to shatter into endless fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun and clouds were split apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the space below crumbled, explosions roaring in every direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sword-Casting Mountain below was cleaved in two, collapsing into dust amid deafening booms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword strike stunned everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to everyone’s shock, the target of the sword wasn’t Jiang Dianfeng,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Jian Yihai and Heaven-Edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two instantly realized this and tried to escape, but the sword’s range was too wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its suppressive power was too overwhelming, they couldn’t avoid it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Swordless, are you insane?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven-Edge shouted in panic, “We’re on the same side! If you betray us, aren’t you afraid of Lord Ming’s punishment?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re insane, completely insane!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring their yelling, Swordless stared ahead, his voice solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My name isn’t Swordless. My real name is Chu Shanhe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing?” Jian Yihai shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We didn’t do anything to you! Why would you do this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve done too many things against my conscience, I’m tired,” Swordless said, his tone strange. “I don’t want to be a pawn of the Blood Rune Race anymore.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sword fell, the screams of Heaven-Edge and Jian Yihai rang out, then stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky converged into a single point, and the endless sword intent seemed to refine the void itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mighty sword force cut through the heavens, annihilating the entire space in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That entire section of space collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword fell. A breeze blew softly, lifting his hair from his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword intent he had condensed for hundreds of years slowly faded away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swordless stood silently in the sky, staring into the horizon, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day I was born, my father held me and looked out the window toward the distant sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, “The rivers and mountains are as beautiful as a painting. One day, you will roam this land.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My parents were both frail and sickly. When I was young, they passed away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grew up eating meals from every household in the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I admired those martial cultivators who could fly and vanish at will. But unfortunately, I was born in a mortal village where no one knew how to cultivate except for a few farming tricks taught by the village instructor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that in the north, there was a Sword Domain, a sword there could slice across the Nine Heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary people could go to the Sword Domain and receive a sword and learn sword techniques for free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That year, I was sixteen. The spring breeze was gentle, the sunlight perfect, willows swaying under the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I packed my bag and set out on my journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swordless remembered his past, silently daydreaming in midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword sheath on his back trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to feel his emotions and cried out in sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I entered the Sword Domain, stepped into the Sword Tower, took a sword, and learned swordsmanship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But later, I found out, it was all just that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a rogue cultivator to make a name for himself was like a peasant trying to become a king, hard and full of obstacles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was simply too difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flickering swords, constant schemes, I saw through the ways of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wanted to return to my village, the village that fed and raised me, and live the rest of my life in peace, away from worldly affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After years of wandering, the white-robed youth returned to his village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what greeted him was an empty ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The village had been destroyed. The villagers had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After much investigation, he learned that a few disciples from a nearby sect had come down from the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them had taken a liking to a village girl and tried to abduct her. The villagers resisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So those disciples slaughtered the entire village, burned the bodies, and destroyed the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, it rained heavily. The white-robed youth sat on a stone in the ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat there for seven days and nights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to take revenge on that sect, but with his meager strength, he had no ability to fight back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you want revenge?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a voice sounded behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hair stood on end, his whole body froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly turned around and saw the creature that would change his life forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got his revenge. He wiped out the entire sect. The corpses piled as high as a mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he also understood that the price of revenge was that his fate no longer belonged to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He followed that monster away. No one cared what had happened there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten years later, the man named Swordless founded the Swordless Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Chu Shanhe no longer existed in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>",1227,"2026-06-06T01:06:40.721Z",1,"novelbin.me","d619c982da65e0db99d8e5638fb92d840aaeb45cd58bce14855a60397ddaac5a","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-478","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-476",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
