Legend of Swordsman

As the true spirit of the Qishen Temple and the controller of the primal power, his wisdom surpassed that of the cultivators. Even after such a long slumber, he remained as vibrant as life itself, experiencing joy and sorrow, laughter and sadness.

The guardian pondered. He was once the servant of the old master. After the fall of the Qishen, he became the guardian, along with eight others, tasked with watching over the Qishen’s tomb for years.

“Oh, right. After absorbing the Grand Yan Immortals into the affiliated worlds, temporarily restrain their battles. The living beings in this Original Iniverse are far from sufficient to activate the highest trial,” the true spirit said calmly, dissatisfied with the number of Grand Yan Immortals in the Original Universe.

If the Emperors were to know, they would probably go crazy!

All the Grand Yan Immortals in just one Great Si Region could be counted in billions. How many were there in the entire Original Universe?

“Yes, but the source in other universes are too strong; it’s not easy to plunder extensively!” The guardian felt a bit uneasy. After all, he was just a guardian. He had only recently started accepting the management of the Qishen Temple under the command of the true spirit.

Many things were still unclear to him. If he were suddenly sent to other universes to plunder Grand Yan Immortals, he wouldn’t know what to do.

The Grand Yan Immortals of the Original Universe were manageable because he could use the Qishen’s virtual shadow formed by the source to directly move all the Grand Yan Immortals into the affiliated worlds of the Qishen Temple. But it would be troublesome to bring in Grand Yan Immortals from other universes.

The source of the original universe had been devoured by the Forbidden Demon Lord, making it weak. The universal source of the Qishen Temple could easily suppress others, and combined with the silent approval of the highest rules, he could easily summon all the Grand Yan Immortals into the affiliated worlds. However, the sources of other universes were intact, and the highest rules were emotionless.

‘I’ve done what 1 can to help your Original Universe; 1 won’t risk reaching into other universes,’ the true spirit thought.

“Everything can be flexible. Since we can’t bring all of them over, let’s just bring the prodigies who have comprehended the third-grade Dao. That should reduce the number by 90 percent, right? For universes far away, plunder the second-grade Dao Grand Yan Immortals, and for those even farther, plunder the Ultimate Dao Grand Yan Immortals. There are only a few of those in each universe; this should be simple!” he suggested.

“That’s easy. You are truly wise, my lord!” Although the guardian wasn’t very clever, he knew how to flatter.

“Haha, since it can be done, go ahead boldly! I still need to think about how to deal with the Grand Yan Immortals and the Emperors.” The true spirit smiled and continued to peruse the ancient books in his hand.

The guardian immediately bowed and left the primal hall.

In the vast primal source, only the true spirit remained. He turned the pages of the book. his brows furrowing.

“This universe is quite interesting. So many prodigies were born simultaneously; it’s probably because of that Forbidden Demon Lord,” the true spirit muttered to himself.

“Yes, not bad at all! I’ve finally completed this list.”

Satisfied, the true spirit smoothed out his brows and directly replicated the contents of the ancient book onto a massive stone tablet.

The stone tablet emitted an ancient aura. Although it appeared to be just a stone tablet, its value was no less than a top-tier eternal treasure. In the Original Universe, the only eternal treasure, the ‘Eternal Tower’, was merely a low-grade item. This was because the Emperor Zhutian was notorious for being overly protective. When he left, he couldn’t rest assured about his disciples and old subordinates, so he left an eternal treasure that could assist them to his disciple.

Many fifth-tier Emperors in the river of time did not have an eternal treasure. When the Emperor Zhutian was still a fourth-rank emperor, he obtained an inheritance from an ancient civilization when he first entered the river of time. Not only did he obtain three eternal treasures, but he also inherited the true teachings of that ancient existence, directly advancing to a fifth-rank emperor. He became an incredibly powerful presence among the fifth-tier

Emperors. That was why he generously left the Eternal Tower to his disciple.

Understanding Tongtian’s intention, he immediately realized it was a suspicion aimed at certain Emperors for their underhanded methods. Without delay, he leaped out of the grand hall.

“Fengyu, explain this!” Chishui’s expression was furious.

Tongtian had just pledged allegiance to him, and now, such a thing happened. It was undoubtedly someone’s hidden revenge. Otherwise, who would be so bored as to kill all the Yan immortals from 3,000 Worlds?

“Explain? Do I have anything to explain to you?” Demon Lord Fengyu was perplexed. She couldn’t fathom what schemes Chishui was up to again.

While the two were in a standoff, Zhen Wuyang received a message from Yu Chang. All the Yan immortals within the Great Si Region had disappeared.

Zhen Wuyang promptly informed Demon Lord Fengyu about the situation. This news caused an uproar. Messages from homeworlds kept pouring in one after another, reporting the disappearance of all Yan immortals. “This must be the doing of Qishen Temple!” Chishui nearly burst into laughter.

It was truly audacious. All the Yan immortals in the entire universe had vanished. Leaving aside whether these Yan immortals were still alive, just the scale of this operation was colossal. No Emperor could accomplish such a feat.

As for whether they lived or died, Chishui couldn’t care less!

Buzz!

An ancient aura suddenly surged.

The aura emanated from Qishen Temple but manifested in the void of the entire universe.

A massive stone stele descended from the void, visible to everyone in the universe.

“The Universe Deity-Demon List!”
