Legend of Swordsman

“Abdomen, master, attack his abdomen.” Devil Flame’s voice sounded in Jian Wushuang’s mind.

“Abdomen?” Jian Wushuang’s expression changed.

“Yes, it’s best if you can directly pierce through his abdomen with one sword,” Devil Flame said.

Jian Wushuang did not hesitate. His body moved strangely and easily moved around the dark red monster. Then, a hazy sword shadow lit up.

There was only one sword shadow, but at first glance, it looked like countless thin lines.

The dark red monster tried to wave its saber-like arms to block it, but it only blocked a small part of the thin lines. Most importantly, it failed to block Jian Wushuang’s sword shadow hidden in the thin lines.

The hazy sword shadow pierced the dark red monster’s abdomen with a sharp edge.

The terrifying power penetrated the dark red monster’s abdomen on the spot.

Bang!

A crisp sound like glass breaking was heard. The dark red monster’s eyes were still filled with anger and madness, but its voice had disappeared, and its two saber-like arms drooped down.

“Dead?”

Jian Wushuang looked at the dark red monster’s corpse in astonishment.

Previously, he had chopped off the dark red monster’s head and shattered it. At the same time, he had shattered the monster’s heart. However, the monster did not die, but immediately recovered.

But now, he had pierced through the dark red monster’s abdomen with his sword, and it was dead?

Obviously, the dark red monster’s weakness was in its abdomen.

“As expected, as expected.”

Devil Flame’s excited voice sounded.

“Devil Flame, did you recognize it?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“Yes, if I’m not mistaken, this dark red monster should be the rarely seen blood-colored ghost demon in the vast universe,” Devil Flame said.

“Blood-colored Ghost Demon?” Jian Wushuang frowned.

“Although blood-colored ghost demon is a race, it’s completely different from most of the races in the universe,” Devil Flame said, “most of the races in the universe were born by the universe in the beginning. After a long time of reproduction, they gradually formed into a race.”

“But the blood-colored Youmo is different. This race was not born by the universe, but by the life of another race.”

“Another race? What do you mean?” Jian Wushuang was puzzled.

“Master, the blood-colored Youmo actually originated from an extremely terrifying race in the universe, the Immortal Ghost Clan!” Devil Flame explained, “The Immortal Ghost Clan is definitely a top race among the many races in the vast universe. They are extremely powerful. In terms of talent, they are even more powerful than the special life form, Wu God, that you mentioned before.”

“What?” Jian Wushuang was shocked.

More powerful than Wu God?

Wu God was an extremely special life form. He was favored by the principles of heaven and earth. Even if he did not cultivate, as long as he slowly grew up and reached the peak, he would be an Ultimate Ruler who had integrated the nine-gate rule, such a special life form was already unbelievable to Jian Wushuang.

But the Immortal Ghost Clan was more talented than Wu God?

“Although Wu God is amazing, he is only an Ultimate Ruler at the peak of his growth. But the Immortal Ghost Clan can reach the supreme level at the peak of its growth. In terms of sheer number, the Immortal Ghost Clan is much more than Wu God. Most importantly, there is a reason why the Immortal Ghost Clan is called Immortal.”

“The reason for this is, first of all, that every single Immortal Ghost is terrifyingly strong, and their life-saving abilities are the best in the universe. There is a saying in the universe, at their peak, the Immortal Ghost are undefeatable!”

“The reason why they are undefeatable is not because they are undefeatable, but because their life-saving abilities are too strong, and no one can kill them.”

“Of course, this is an exaggeration. Although most of the Supreme Beings at their peak can’t kill them, there are countless experts in the vast universe. The Universe Overlords who stand at the top of the universe and are invincible among the Supreme Beings can still kill them.”

Jian Wushuang understood.

The Immortal Ghost might have a terrifying life-saving ability, but it was not invincible.

After all, even the Master of the Red Cloud World, the Patriarch of the Red Cloud World, who had reached the supreme-level, could be killed. Even the Ling Yun planet created by supreme-level Universe Overlords like Paragon Ling Yun would decline, the universe was vast and terrifying.

The Immortal Ghost was strong in life-preservation, but it was not invincible.

“There is a second reason.” Devil Flame continued, “The number of Immortal Ghost has always been 99 in the universe. This is eternal. Even if one Immortal Ghost dies, the universe will immediately give birth to a new Immortal Ghost. In other words, the Immortal Ghost will never be extinct. As long as the cycle of the universe continues, the number of Immortal Ghost will always be 99. There will never be more than 99, and there will never be less than 99.”

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang was extremely shocked.

He finally understood how terrifying this race was and why it was called Immortal.

It was indeed immortal.

Not only did it have incredible life-saving abilities, but more importantly, it had a special status in the universe.

Even if one was killed, the universe would immediately give birth to one. Such a race was indeed immortal and no one in the universe could destroy it.

“Of course, the Universe is fair. Although the Immortal Ghost Clan is powerful and eternal, they have some disadvantages.” Devil Flame continued, “First of all, their growth period is too long. As far as I know, an Immortal Ghost Clan must go through hundreds of chaos cycles from birth to its peak.”

“Hundreds of chaos cycles?” Jian Wushuang was stunned.

It had only been one chaos cycle since the birth and destruction of a third-grade astral world.

Hundreds of chaos cycles?

How many years would that take?

That was a bit too long.

“Are all the Immortal Ghost Demons like this? Can’t they reach their peak ahead of time?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“No. No matter how talented you are and how strong your battle strength is, you have to wait until you reach your peak in order to reach the supreme realm. To reach your peak, you have to spend hundreds of chaos cycles.”

“But hundreds of chaos cycles are simply too long. Many of the undead specters won’t even be able to last that long before they are killed during their growth period. Only a very small number of undead specters will be able to survive their peak period and become autarchs. They will truly be able to roam the universe, and even supreme autarchs won’t be able to do anything to them.”
