Legend of Swordsman

5461 Seclusion

And perhaps, it wasn’t so simple in this matter. Creating the Origin Source of time was vastly different from mastering it.

Emperor Jueyun from back then, it wasn’t that simple. Her aspirations were immense, probably beyond the imagination of outsiders.

Moreover, the path she took was likely a dark and perilous one, untrodden by anyone.

Even if she didn’t succeed, she could still become the Emperor of the Moro Time and Space.

If he succeeded, then perhaps the Moro Time and Space of that time would have witnessed a being even more formidable than the Qishen, a true ruler of the stars.

”It’s ultimately just a dream!”

With the fall of Emperor Jueyun, fewer people would dare to tread that path, and that profound technique probably had been sealed away by Zhen Ling.

It might be better for him to stick to his Ultimate Sword Dao path honestly!

”The eighth level emphasizes suppression, so the ninth level should focus on the path of slaughter!”

The Sword Dao is fundamentally rooted in the essence of slaughter and cannot be overly conservative, or it would go against its nature.

Slaughter!

What constitutes the ultimate form of slaughter?

Jian Wushuang’s divine consciousness immersed itself in these thoughts.

Having found a direction, he began to immerse himself in cultivation.

Simultaneously, within Gong Miaoyi’s body, he continuously absorbed the profound mysteries of the Sword Dao.

Strangely enough, only now did he truly understand the Sword Dao Origin Source within Gong Miaoyi’s body.

Origins typically took the form of pillars, even if it formed a spatial Origin Source, it would still be a three-dimensional shape.

However, the sword path origin within Gong Miaoyi’s body looked more like a flat surface.

Like a piece of paper.

Not only was the Sword Dao mystery on its surface exceptionally active.

This inconspicuous Sword Dao Origin Source within Gong Miaoyi’s spatial Origin Source was quite extraordinary.

”It’s time to enhance the divine body!” Jian Wushuang heaved a sigh of relief. Just finding the direction had taken him tens of thousands of years.

Fortunately, now that he had a direction, continuous contemplation would lead to improvement.

Many cultivators spend countless epochs just searching for direction in their cultivation, but Jian Wushuang’s progress was swift due to his massive accumulation.

The next level of advancement depended on providence.

In contrast, the improvement of the divine body was different; it required a short amount of time but demanded numerous treasures.

Splash!

In the Sea of Origin Source, Jian Wushuang’s divine body’s illusion floated, surrounded by countless treasures.

”Void Iron Shards!”

Jian Wushuang grabbed a handful, and a powerful force began to enter his divine body.

These Void Iron Shards, sliced from an unknown source, contained terrifying power unrelated to material, pure energy.

At this moment, the divine body began to swell.

Just a piece of iron shard caused his body to expand a thousandfold.

Now it had reached 16,000-fold.

White Junwang had warned him before; the enhancement of the divine body needed to be systematic. The precondition was a robust physical body capable of accommodating a stronger divine body.

His physical body was impeccable, and the divine body had integrated with the Boundless.

The balance among the physical body, divine body, and Origin Source was maintained.

Though he was a Dao Lord, his Origin Source had reached the level of a tier 5 Emperor.

The only thing lacking was the explosive growth of the divine body.

Previously, with the support of the Beast God Weapon and the Heavenly Demon Technique, he could reach a divine body of 50,000-fold, already at its limit.

In fact, he could completely skip the enhancement of the divine body. With the augmentation of the Beast God Weapon and the Heavenly Demon Technique, he could already reach the limit of 50,000-fold.

Relying solely on the divine body, he reached the threshold of the tier 6 Emperor.

If he truly elevated the foundational divine body to 50,000- fold, it would be challenging for the current Beast God Weapon to empower the divine body. The Heavenly Demon Technique would no longer have a part to play.

It could be considered dispensable.

Instead, he could directly raise the divine body to 30,000- fold or even 50,000-fold; the foundation was the key.

The Beast God Weapon had many advantages besides amplifying the divine body; it was not just as simple as enhancing the divine body.

The divine body was the Origin Source of power.

What Jian Wushuang lacked now was power!

That power was meant to contend with the Emperor for the sun and moon.

Buzz!

The divine body began to steadily break through and had already surpassed the 20,000-fold barrier.

The consumption of treasures, however, was minimal.

The treasures given to him by Hu Qing were priceless. Although there weren’t many treasures when the Three Kings Court collapsed, what remained was enough to drive the Universe Master mad.

Especially the Skysight Heavenly Chessboard.

A Temporal Treasure!

Back when Moro’s spacetime didn’t have many pieces.

Among the treasures that ranked in the top three within the peak spacetime river, the Temporal Treasure was used by Qishen on the surface. Other Universe Masters didn’t even have the courage to take it out, fearing it would attract the arrival of superpowerful beings.

It indicated its importance.

After the divine body broke through 20,000-fold, Jian Wushuang began absorbing the tears of the Hundred Weeping Vines from the Skysight Heavenly Chessboard. Next, he planned to directly surge towards a thirty- thousand-fold divine body.

Reaching the pinnacle of Dao Lord.

Ordinary Dao Lords were generally around 10,000-fold.

A heaven-defying Dao Monarch would elevate the divine body to 30,000-fold.

This could also be considered the peak of a heaven-defying Dao Monarch.

But Jian Wushuang didn’t limit himself to this.

His goal was a 50,000-fold divine body, and with the Heavenly Demon Art, he could forcefully elevate it to the Major Mahayana realm, reaching the 50,000-fold divine body. Even his basic divine body could achieve the same. However, in the later stages, the accumulation of treasures was too vast, requiring a long period to digest.

Ascending the divine body was simple in theory, but the time required for later-stage advancements was astonishing.

Bai Junwang had mentioned that when he broke through the 50,000-fold divine body, he obtained a treasure trove. It took several epochs of seclusion to thoroughly stabilize his divine body breakthrough.

The assimilation of such massive treasures into the divine body incurred significant costs.

It was akin to merging a towering tree into a grain of sand.

Even more exaggerated than that.

One grain of sand, one world.

Infinite possibilities within.

An instant became eternal.

The physical body could reach eternity, and the divine body could achieve Immortality. A 50,000-fold divine body could reach the stage of undying and indestructible.

That’s why, those who followed the path of the divine body, upon reaching a 50,000-fold divine body, could rival tier 6 emperors.

Jian Wushuang, relying on his 50,000-fold divine body, could unleash such formidable strength initially because of the dual Immortality of his physical and divine bodies.

Unfortunately, maintaining a 50,000-fold divine body was extremely challenging.

It required the accumulation of the basic divine body. Swish!

Countless treasures gathered again as divine power condensed them into water, flowing into Jian Wushuang’s body.

Hum!

Ripples began emanating from the divine body, a sign of its expansion.

Jian Wushuang was about to break through the 30,000- fold barrier directly from a 20,000-fold divine body.

The tears of the Hundred Weeping Vines poured like waterfalls. Typically, those following the divine body path needed just a portion of the tears when breaking through 30,000-fold. Jian Wushuang, on the other hand, emptied all the tears from myriad realms.

With the help of the genius treasures given by Hu Qing, the divine body directly surged from 20,000-fold to 39,000- fold.

Having exhausted all the treasures provided by Hu Qing, and with the Hundred Weeping Tears nearly depleted, it was time for an endless period of seclusion.

Although he could directly break through to 39,000-fold, further growth required precipitation and time.

As time passed minute by minute, over 1,000 years had already elapsed outside.
