Chapter 434: World Will
Deep in the Sword Domain, Qingyun Peak.
This is the most core place of the entire Sword Domain, because the Green-Shirt Sword Saint has lived here for a long time.
Most of the time, he will sit on the top of the mountain to comprehend sword intent.
However, at this time, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint is sitting in a small courtyard halfway up the mountain. This is his residence. There is a waterfall in front of the courtyard. The sound of water is like thunder, but it is vaguely mixed with the sound of swords.
There is only a thatched cottage in the courtyard, as well as stone tables and stone stools. The flowers and plants in the flower garden are trimmed very neatly, also giving people a feeling of containing sword intent.
Chu Yang sat opposite the Green-Shirt Sword Saint, feeling a bit emotional in his heart.
No wonder the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's sword dao attainments can reach this degree. This guy completely regards "sword" as everything in his life.
The purer a person is, the more likely they are to reach a certain extreme.
Chu Yang withdrew his gaze, looked at the green shirt in front of him, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you, Sword Saint senior, for helping me build momentum!"
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint shook his head and smiled, "I heard from the old senior Undying that the Chu King has amazing talent, even more than the Immortal Emperor, and is the hope of the Great Thousand World's demon-subduing."
"I was still a bit skeptical, so the previous sparring was not reserved, and there was also some temptation."
"But now it seems that the old senior Undying's vision is indeed unique. The Chu King not only has amazing talent, but the efforts he has made are also really admirable."
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint's idea is very simple, that is, in his view, as long as you have enough talent, it is not difficult to achieve something in sword dao.
But if you want to reach the peak of sword dao, talent alone is far from enough, and you also need to put in sweat and effort that ordinary people cannot imagine.
He himself was once hailed as an unprecedented sword dao genius, but even so, in order to simplify the complex and comprehend sword intent, he only repeated simple sword-swinging movements all day long, but it lasted for ten years.
He even forgot how many times he repeated the same action?
So in his view, Chu Yang's sword dao achievements must be inseparable from the efforts he made.
To this, Chu Yang just smiled and said nothing.
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint's theory and concepts cannot be used to measure him, this "alternative."
With the Soul Palace, the talent superposition of himself in various worlds, and the superposition of understanding, it is completely impossible to speculate with common sense.
Take the matter of comprehending sword intent, for example, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint needs to swing his sword countless times, but Chu Yang may only need hundreds, or even dozens of times.
"This time I invited the Chu King over because there were some things I didn't understand in the previous sword technique discussion, and I hope the Chu King can explain them to me!"
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint's attitude toward Chu Yang at this time can be described as extremely polite, and he has even put on the posture of a student.
His idea is very simple, that is, learning has no order, and the achiever is the teacher! He regards the sword as everything in his life, so in his view, since Chu Yang's sword dao attainments are stronger than his own, he lowers his head to ask for advice, which is not shameful.
Chu Yang twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling a bit uncomfortable with the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's attitude.
However, he still explained: "I presume the senior felt the power of the World Will. Actually, it was not my sword that attracted the World Will..."
Chu Yang paused, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Does the senior know about the Vault of Heaven List?"
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint's expression was solemn, and he nodded, "Naturally, I know. The Vault of Heaven List is the manifestation of the World Will of the Great Thousand World. Only by reaching the realm above the Saint-grade can one attract the descent of the Vault of Heaven List and try to leave a name on the list."
"Throughout history, only the Immortal Emperor left his surname on the Vault of Heaven List, although he failed to completely step into that brand-new realm, he also transcended the Saint-grade."
Speaking of this, a look of longing and admiration appeared on the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's face, but his eyes were firm, obviously confident that he would eventually reach that realm.
A sword cultivator must experience returning to the basics and hiding the edge in the sheath, but this does not mean that he should grind away confidence and sharpness.
Without confidence and sharpness, the sword in his hand will also be covered in dust.
Chu Yang nodded and continued, "In a sense, I tore off a corner of the Vault of Heaven List earlier and turned it into the sword in my hand."
"So I said that in the previous sparring, I took a trick."
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint was stunned and lost his mind for a while.
He never thought that in the field of sword dao, there could be such an operation?
Being able to be hailed as the number one person in sword dao throughout history before Chu Yang appeared, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's understanding was naturally not bad. He instantly understood what Chu Yang meant.
The so-called tearing off a corner of the Vault of Heaven List, isn't it borrowing a corner of the world?
Casting a sword with the power of the world? The Green-Shirt Sword Saint stared at Chu Yang, and made an evaluation of this young man in his mind...
Madman!
If he weren't a madman, who could think of such a method?
And isn't he afraid that the World Will will impose heavenly punishment? After a long time, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint slowly calmed his emotions, shook his head, and said, "Isn't casting a sword with the power of the world also an understanding of sword dao?"
"The Chu King did not take a trick, Green-Shirt is convinced!"
"It seems that the Great Thousand World's demon-subduing is promising..."
For the next three days, the two sat at the stone table, drinking tea and discussing sword dao.
However, most of the time, it was the Green-Shirt Sword Saint asking questions, and Chu Yang answering based on his own understanding.
In this process, Chu Yang also benefited a lot, because he found that the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's understanding of sword dao was quite different from the Xianxia world and the Wuxia world, and there were many unique points.
Stones from other hills can be used to polish jade, which further improved Chu Yang's sword dao attainments and gave him more ideas about the Extreme Sword Art.
In contrast, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint seemed to have been enlightened during these three days.
For the Green-Shirt Sword Saint who spared no effort to show favor to him and was willing to lower his head to ask for advice, since Chu Yang had gained insights through the other party, he naturally would not hide his secrets.
As a result, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint overturned many of his previous cognitions about sword dao under the baptism of sword dao from the Xianxia world and the Wuxia world, and clarified the direction for the future.
In short, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint was crossing the river by feeling the stones before. Although his sword dao attainments were very high, he had gone astray more or less.
Now with Chu Yang's help, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint brought his path back to the right track.
At the same time, he also gained many sword dao understandings from Chu Yang. After digesting these understandings, his sword dao attainments will inevitably go to the next level.
Chu Yang vaguely felt that perhaps in the near future, this Green-Shirt Sword Saint would snatch the lead before Xiao Yan and Lin Dong, and even that child of luck, Mu Chen, to leave his name on the Vault of Heaven List first.
When leaving Qingyun Peak, Chu Yang suddenly felt something, looked up at the sky, and a look of smile but not smile appeared on his face.
Ever since he borrowed the corner of the world to cast the sword that day, he had always been able to feel the gaze of the World Will.
But just now, that gaze suddenly vanished. He knew that this was the World Will completely compromising and tacitly agreeing to Chu Yang's means of borrowing the power of the world.
The reason for this is probably because Chu Yang taught his many sword dao understandings to the Green-Shirt Sword Saint without reservation.
On the surface, this was just Chu Yang returning a favor to the Green-Shirt Sword Saint, and letting the future Great Thousand World likely have a powerhouse who surpassed the Saint-grade because of this.
But if you look further, these sword dao understandings of Chu Yang will be passed down through the Green-Shirt Sword Saint.
Unlike "anomalies" like Chu Yang and Sun Wukong, if someone in the Great Thousand World reaches the Sovereign Realm, or even surpasses the Sovereign Realm.
Possessing power that is comparable to the World Will, or even stronger than the World Will, is beneficial and harmless to the Great Thousand World.
Because they carry the luck of the Great Thousand World, they are equivalent to coexisting with the Great Thousand World.
So Chu Yang's unreserved teaching is of infinite use to the Great Thousand World, and the World Will finally compromised and reached a tacit understanding with him.
Since then, Chu Yang wants to borrow the power of the world to cast a sword, and he doesn't need to have any reservations, nor will he attract the exclusion of the World Will.
"Buzz..."
Chu Yang's body trembled slightly, and the energy singularity in his dantian sent out a violent fluctuation.
His momentum climbed step by step, instantly making the entire Qingyun Peak tremble slightly.
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint in the courtyard looked up suddenly, a flash of shock and admiration in his eyes, and then waved his hand, directly sealing the space around Qingyun Peak.
After a long time, Chu Yang walked out of Qingyun Peak with a faint smile on his face.
Immortal-grade Heavenly Sovereign! When he left the Northern Wilderness Hill, his cultivation had already reached the late Spirit-grade.
In the process of resurrecting the ancestors of the five ancient clans, the improvement of cultivation did not stop for a moment, and he was only half a step away from breaking through to the Immortal-grade.
The confrontation with the World Will and the discussion of Dao with the Green-Shirt Sword Saint benefited him a lot, so he broke through in one fell swoop just now.
This cultivation entered the Immortal-grade. Now, even if he doesn't use the origin of the Zanpakuto and the Source Martial Dharma Body, his overall strength has reached the peak of the mid-stage Saint-grade, and he can even contend with the late-stage Saint-grade! The initial upper limit of the Heavenly Demon Strength that the Source Martial Dharma Body can withstand has reached seventy-two patterns! Now the Source Martial Dharma Body has ninety demonic patterns, which means the extreme Heavenly Demon Strength has reached seventy-eight patterns!
Although it only increased by eighteen patterns compared to before, this is only because it is limited by the number of demonic patterns.
Once the number of demonic patterns increases further, the overall enhancement brought by the significant increase in the initial upper limit will be more intuitively reflected.
Not only that, Chu Yang also felt that the power of faith in the Ascension Amulet had increased significantly, reaching a level sufficient to support his sixteenth ascension.
Obviously, what happened in the Sword Domain had spread throughout the Great Thousand World and caused a sensation again.
Chu Yang was not surprised. After all, the Green-Shirt Sword Saint gave him enough face and admitted in public that his attainments in sword dao were not as good as his.
Just this point is enough to cause an earth-shattering storm in the circle of powerhouses in the Great Thousand World.
After leaving Qingyun Peak, Chu Yang went all the way east and soon arrived at the eastern border.
He learned from the Green-Shirt Sword Saint that the Undying God Tree last appeared in the Heavenly Sword Continent.
The Heavenly Sword Continent is the most special lower plane in the Great Thousand World, because it is not connected to the Great Thousand World, but is connected to the Purgatory Space that isolates the eastern border.
Purgatory Space is the Outer Realm battlefield on the eastern border. Unlike other borders, this is not an ancient battlefield, but a space formed naturally.
Purgatory Space is extremely dangerous, with extremely high temperatures, and gestates a special lifeform called Fire Demon.
This kind of Fire Demon has no wisdom and only knows how to swallow spiritual power and constantly evolve.
However, they seem to be uninterested in evil power, so they rarely take the initiative to find trouble with the Outer Realm Evil Tribe, but only target the powerhouses of the Great Thousand World.
This led to the fact that in the Purgatory Space, the dangers faced by the powerhouses of the Great Thousand World are much greater than those of the Outer Realm Evil Tribe.
Because among the Fire Demons, there are powerhouses at the Heavenly Sovereign level! Purgatory Space is the same as other border battlefields. Once a Heavenly Sovereign powerhouse enters, it will cause spatial turbulence and even lead to spatial collapse.
But the Fire Demons are not affected at all, and instead can mobilize the power of heaven and earth in the Purgatory Space, as if they coexist with heaven and earth.
Standing at the exit of the Purgatory Space, Chu Yang frowned slightly, thinking about how to enter the Heavenly Sword Continent.
The reason why it is said that the Heavenly Sword Continent only connects to the Purgatory Space and cannot directly connect to the Great Thousand World is because this lower plane has no spatial coordinates at all, but is a special plane that constantly moves in the void space.
This is the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's handwriting. He erased the coordinates of the Heavenly Sword Continent and made the Heavenly Sword Continent a movable lower plane, just to protect the indigenous people in it.
Because the Green-Shirt Sword Saint came from the Heavenly Sword Continent back then, killed a bloody path from it, and stood out from the Purgatory Space, and finally came to the Great Thousand World.
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint built a one-way teleportation array in the Heavenly Sword Continent, which allows people in the Heavenly Sword Continent to teleport to the Sword Domain at any time.
But people in the Great Thousand World cannot directly enter the Heavenly Sword Continent.
At the connection node between the Heavenly Sword Continent and the Purgatory Space, there is also a one-way external seal.
Simply put, people outside cannot get in, but people inside can come out at any time.
This series of operations made even Chu Yang admire, because this not only requires extremely high attainments in space power, but also takes a lot of time.
The Green-Shirt Sword Saint completely built the Heavenly Sword Continent into an airtight fortress, and I am afraid that even he himself cannot enter it.
The Undying God Tree appeared a few years ago and condensed an Undying God Leaf.
And that Undying God Leaf was brought to the Great Thousand World by the indigenous people of the Heavenly Sword Continent through the one-way teleportation array and handed over to the Green-Shirt Sword Saint.
That is to say, the Undying God Tree is likely still in the Heavenly Sword Continent!
Chu Yang thought about it and thought there was only one feasible way.
That is for him to enter the Purgatory Space and then find a breakthrough in the one-way seal left by the Green-Shirt Sword Saint!
Apart from this, although he has many ways to enter the Heavenly Sword Continent, they will all destroy the Green-Shirt Sword Saint's layout.
People have spent hundreds of years of painstaking efforts to protect their homeland. If he destroys it indiscriminately, it is a bit unreasonable.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang no longer hesitated, directly tore open a space rift, and then stepped into it.
He would not enter the Purgatory Space through the entrance, because in that way, with his Immortal-grade Heavenly Sovereign realm, he would inevitably trigger large-scale spatial turbulence.
He used the method of bringing many powerhouses of the Dou Zhan Demon Domain through the Saint Abyss back then to enter the Purgatory Space quietly.
And in the first time, he let Pan Gu's computing power reach the extreme, calculating the spatial stability at all times, and every time before causing spatial turbulence, he erased it with space power. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 435 =====
