Legend of Swordsman

Even at the 75th floor, he probably couldn’t directly resist that sword strike.

....After all, the first sword move in the Starry Sky Chronicles was capable of killing powerhouses like Broly.

At that time, Broly was already comparable to Wu Zuo.

Passing through 72 floors was, of course, no problem.

Upon returning to the grand hall, countless gazes turned towards him, filled with astonishment and disbelief.

From now on, no one dared to question Jian Wushuang.

If a time limit were added, countless epochs later, or perhaps in another era, people would still remember the name Jian Wushuang.

The Invincible Dao Lord!

The Origin Source of All Things was divided into millions of parts, and he made sure everyone got a share.

Although it seemed insufficient for some powerful beings, for the tier 4 and tier 5 Emperors, it was a tremendous opportunity.

While feeling grateful to Jian Wushuang, they also strove towards him.

Before entering seclusion, Jian Wushuang had extensive conversations with the old powerhouses like Dongsheng, discussing the current situation in the Original Universe, urging them to remain vigilant.

He knew a lot but could say very little, merely mentioning the threat posed by that Mo Jun or Demon Lord.

In case the opponent managed to lift the restrictions prematurely, and Qishen Temple had no one at the Tribulation realm, it would be awkward, with only the option to watch Mo Jun slaughter and devour.

However, according to Zhen Ling, among the three Great True Monarchs…

Shan Jun was disintegrated, while Mo Jun was suppressed.

Their strengths were greatly diminished, with the most powerful being Gu Jun, who was suppressed deep in the First Prison.

His strength remained intact, at least possessing the power of a Six Tribulation realm.

Even if Mo Jun were to break free from the restrictions, having a strength of Three Tribulation would be considered good.

Even so, within the Qishen Temple, there was no one who could be considered a match now.

Zhen Ling couldn’t leave at all, and the avatar that went out was too weak.

Zhuang Zhong, who had allied with Zhen Ling, was only at the One Tribulation realm, and his strength was simply inadequate.

They had to rely on the Inheritors.

In addition to the overt threats, there was also Mie Sheng.

The opponent came for the Life power within him.

The collision of Death and Life, the planning of countless epochs, all for him.

He had to be more cautious.

Returning to the familiar cave mansion, it felt empty.

Jian Wushuang casually sat cross-legged on the mat, beginning to inventory the treasures at his disposal.

There were many treasures that could quickly enhance his strength, and he needed to make use of all that he could.

The stronger he became, the more assurance he had.

“Universe crystals, 300,000 cubic units!” Jian Wushuang nodded.

Before him appeared a towering mountain, entirely composed of universe crystals.

Originally, he had intended to devour these universe crystals, but with the Origin Source of All Things, it was faster to devour the Origin Source itself. These universe crystals were hard to come by, and he could use them later when he became the Emperor.

Two-thirds of the Origin Source of All Things.

A majestic Origin Source, the Origin Source of the Divine Master of All Things from the past.

The Origin Source of a Six Tribulation realm powerhouse!

Now it belonged to him.

He was already very close to the realm of the black hole, and devouring this Origin Sources was enough to break through.

Reaching out with a single hand, he gently touched the Origin Source of All Things. His spiritual awareness expanded greatly, and the vastness of all things entered directly into his body.

In just an instant, his body expanded by a circle.

This Origin Source was too pure.

Jian Wushuang found it a bit difficult to devour and quickly stopped.

Swish!

He directly moved the Origin Source of All Things into his own Origin Source Sea. Devouring the Origin Source took a very long time, and he couldn’t afford to waste that time.

A clone could handle the devouring.

He had more important things to do.

The chess manual, the Skysight Heavenly Chessboard, and the inheritance of the First True King could wait for him to cultivate after reaching the Emperor realm; there was no hurry for that.

Currently, he needed to comprehend the power brought by the Starry Sky Chronicles.

The power of the Starry Sky.

This wasn’t the power of the Extreme Dao but rather the power of the Sword Dao.

Starry Sky Sword Dao.

This could be considered Nie Yuan’s inheritance.

Or rather, it was the Starry Sky inheritance Nie Yuan obtained and passed on to him.

Unfortunately, Nie Yuan’s strength and potential were too weak. That one sword move directly caused Nie Yuan to die from breathlessness.

If he had Nie Yuan’s strength, he probably wouldn’t have met such a fate.

Even now, although he could use that one sword move, the backlash it brought required him to rest for an hour and replenish his Life power.

This was only possible because he had mastered the power of Life. Without it, he might have suffered the same fate as Nie Yuan, dying directly from breathlessness.

He hadn’t truly mastered the power of the Starry Sky; he only borrowed it, or even stole it.

Naturally, there would be repercussions.

Moreover, the power of the Starry Sky inherently carried the Origin Source of Time and Space, making it difficult for him to bear.

Let alone combining the two.

“The First Sword Move!” Jian Wushuang’s thoughts manifested in swordsmanship. With one swing, his entire person wilted.

Puff!

This time, he was directly backlash-injured, unable to mobilize his Thought power.

“No, the difference in realms is still too vast. I should wait until I reach the black hole realm to give it another try!” Jian Wushuang shook his head.

His current realm was indeed too low.

The power of the Starry Sky was utterly incomprehensible to him.

Creating a simple sword move relied only on a small amount of power.

Even the use of the Starry Sky’s power to enhance himself was rough.

It was time to set aside the Sword Dao.

Otherwise, no matter how he played, he would end up smashing it in his own hands.

It would be better to first study how to use the power of the Starry Sky within himself and then specialize it in the Dao of the Sword.

He had mixed things up before.

Initially, he applied the power of the Starry Sky to the Sword Dao, then called it into his own body.

He used his Thought power.

A weak force of the Starry sSky appeared at his fingertips. At a glance, its boundaries were indiscernible.

His eyes, now able to scrutinize even space, and his thoughts could sense time, but they couldn’t penetrate this strand of Starry Sky power.

Although it was just a strand, condensed into a small group.

Yet, Jian Wushuang saw a vast universe within it.

Upon closer inspection, the universe continuously dispersed.

It wasn’t until he felt groggy that he stopped.

Unfathomable!

He could only see one universe.

Who would have thought that with just this bit of Starry Sky power, it contained a universe, and perhaps even more than one universe?

The mystery of the Starry Sky was indeed beyond Jian Wushuang’s imagination.

In the following time, he remained immersed in it.

Mastery of the Dao was not something achieved overnight; he needed ample preparation.

He gained enlightenment from the Starry Sky, perhaps the opportunity for Dao mastery lay within the celestial expanse.

Anything was possible.

Inside the cave mansion, everything remained unchanged for eternity!

Outside the cave mansion, however, changes occurred day by day.

The number of trial participants gradually decreased, and the count of inheritors began to stabilize.

With the number unchanged, the resources of the Grave God Mountain remained constant.

For the Inheritors, this was considered good news.

However, for Zhen Ling, it was a colossal piece of bad news.

In the temporal river beyond the Original Universe, at some unknown time, a grand hall identical to the Qishen Temple appeared.

This hall stood tall in the temporal river, creating more commotion than even the Qishen Temple.

It directly opened its doors to the formidable beings along the entire temporal river.

Clearly, it was created by Mie Sheng.
