Legend of Swordsman

“Whoosh!” At the moment he opened his eyes, he exhaled a heavy breath. Just as he tried to move his body, he felt a sharp pain.

The pain was excruciating.

During the cleansing of his divine body, he could endure it, and he eventually got used to it.

But now, having lost that cleansing tempering, he felt the pain acutely.

Unable to stand steadily, he collapsed directly.

Everyone rushed forward, and Wu Zuo, with reddened eyes, said, “It’s over. Brother Wushuang has failed his Tribulation and is going to die!”

“Disband!” Wu Zuo wailed.

Upon hearing the word “disband”, Jian Wushuang immediately sat up and, with a darkened face, said, “I’m not dead yet. Even if I failed the Tribulation, I’ll just become a Scattered Tribulation cultivator. I won’t die!”

After saying that, he really fainted.

This time, he was truly exhausted.

After closing his eyes, only a trace of his Thought power sensed the situation in front of him.

Everyone exchanged insights on cultivation and Tribulation experiences before putting him into the pyramid.

Then Babata placed him into the rest cabin.

There, a life-sustaining liquid filled the cabin, and his whole body was submerged in the green fluid.

Under Babata’s control, the pyramid left the Taixu Secret Realm.

This time, their destination was the Original Universe!

Qishen Temple!

“I have returned!”

The others either cultivated or discussed Dao in the Qiankun Hall.

They traversed the Nine Great Spacetimes, entering the true Desolate Land, where the spacetime river flowed turbulently.

It was not suitable for opening new spacetime realms.

When the Celestial Maiden opened the spacetime, they always chose the depths of the upstream regions, and other spacetimes were similar.

Originally, in the upstream, Realm King had opened three long rivers of spacetime.

They had all grown to the Eternal Realm.

But they existed since ancient times.

The other spacetimes were opened by those Ninth Tribulation experts who fell while attempting to open new spacetime realms.

Most of them fell directly after opening the spacetime.

Just like the giant Jian Wushuang had encountered in the Starry Sky.

He opened a world and died of exhaustion.

Flying through the Desolate Land was the most tedious.

It took an entire era for them to leave the upstream.

Passing through the convergence area was the most dangerous.

They didn’t encounter a single cultivator on their way.

Nor would anyone seek trouble by going to the middle or even downstream.

Of course, there were also some spacetime passages that could lead to the midstream, but those passages were all unstable.

They were not as reliable as the passage crafted by Zhen Ling.

However, there had been Realm King secretly helping back then. Otherwise, that old fellow, Zhen Ling, wouldn’t have been able to handle such a big task.

After the pyramid completely entered the midstream spacetime, Jian Wushuang finally woke

up.

This time, he was truly exhausted.

He had slept for an entire era.

It took him a long time to gradually recover.

Having been inactive for such a long time, as soon as he got up, his body made a series of creaking sounds.

He moved his shoulders slightly and hoarsely asked, “Babata, where are we?”

Swish!

The small Babata appeared instantly. Seeing Jian Wushuang awake, he excitedly said, “Master, you are finally awake. We have now entered the midstream spacetime, and in 400,000 years, we will reach the first tributary of the midstream spacetime!”

“Good, not bad!” Jian Wushuang removed his clothing and turned to enter a hot spring. After lying comfortably in the water, he continued to ask, “Has anything happened along the way?”

“12 million years ago, in a turbulent area, we encountered a strange spacetime beast with extremely powerful divine power. It tried to attack the pyramid but was killed by Wu Zuo!”

“6.8 million years ago, upon entering the midstream region, we discovered a team of six practitioners exploring from the upper stream, all at the Seventh Tribulation. However, they were all Scattered Tribulation practitioners. Hu Qing tried to persuade them, but they stubbornly pressed on and have since perished!”

“300,000 years ago, we found a drifting other shore flower in the spacetime and had the pyramid pluck it!”

“10,000 years ago…”

Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but wave his hand to interrupt Babata, “Alright, there’s no need to report trivial matters. You may go now.”

After dismissing Babata, he also got out of the hot spring. Divine power evaporated the water droplets from his body. He casually took out a blue robe and put it on. With a shift of his form, he directly entered his own cave dwelling.

This was also the core, the deepest part of the pyramid.

The cave dwelling was well-equipped.

There was even a space for practicing martial arts.

Having not exercised for a long time, he soon found himself an opponent in the practice

space.

This opponent was himself.

His true self sat cross-legged on the top of a mountain within the practice space.

Two avatars flew out from the original body and entered the valley below the mountain.

The avatars did not use any secret techniques, relying purely on basic divine power for their confrontation.

There was no other way; he could only have the avatars undergo trials.

After all, there were no opponents.

Everyone else was cultivating.

He felt it inappropriate to disturb others.

The avatars continuously familiarized themselves with the current divine power.

The original body was also cultivating.

After reaching the Seventh Tribulation, he had not yet had the opportunity to stabilize his

realm.

Once the three universes were repaired, they began to self-maintain.

Jian Wushuang also started preparing for the Eighth Tribulation.

He began planning his universe.

The bottleneck for the Seventh Tribulation was three universes.

So, what about the Eighth Tribulation?

It might be five universes, or it could be nine.

The required resources were almost beyond his capability to afford.

He could only first create a framework.

Then gradually illuminate those universes.

The Origin Source needed to be constructed, but he was not in a hurry to enhance his divine

power.

There was still a lot of blood-colored aura, and since he had reached the Seventh Tribulation,

he could completely elevate his divine power to its peak.

However, there was still plenty of time, and he did not want to improve too quickly.

He wanted to give his divine body some time to breathe.

After exploring for tens of millions of years, he finally managed to achieve the ultimate plan

for cultivating divine power and the Origin Source.

The target for the Origin Source was nine universes.

Once accomplished, he could undergo the Eighth Tribulation, but that goal was still very

distant.

As for divine power, he did not have a clear limit.

However, the basic divine power must reach 5 million.

3 million for the Sixth Tribulation, 5 million for the Seventh Tribulation realm, which was not

unreasonable.

After figuring out the path for cultivation.

He then began to study his secret techniques one by one.

The Super Eternal Ancient Transformation had already reached perfection.

The remaining task was just to become familiar with it, and there was nothing more to

cultivate.

However, there were still many problems to solve with the Starry Sky Chronicles.

Currently, the Reincarnation Sword was still somewhat clumsy.

However, the Spacetime Sword had already reached the Minor Accomplishment stage.

The Reincarnation Sword was not even at the entry-level.

Because he did not know whether he could perform it next time.

As long as he could master the basics, performing it would not be difficult; the issue was how

many times it could be used.

Life, Death, Reincarnation, and Spacetime.

Of the first four sword moves, only the Reincarnation Sword had not reached entry level.

The Life Sword had already reached perfection, and the Death Sword had also achieved Major

Accomplishment.

As long as the first four swords were all cultivated to Perfection.

He could perform the fifth sword move.

The Spacetime Reincarnation Sword.

That would be a new height in his swordsmanship.

The fifth sword would likely only be achievable once he reached the Eighth Tribulation.

In the Seventh Tribulation, it was already commendable to cultivate the first four sword

moves to perfection.

This was also the goal he set for himself!

Reaching perfection with the Death Sword required the help of Mie Sheng. Of course, this help

might lead to Mie Sheng’s fall.
