Legend of Swordsman

This was indeed intriguing.

”My soul power is far stronger than that of an Emperor or even a Universe Master. I can create a soul secret technique and, while I’m at it, forge a soul-related innate treasure that could at least unleash the power of a top-tier Emperor!”

Jian Wushuang immediately began searching for the soul secret techniques he had cultivated in the past.

Since none were suitable for his current needs, he split off a portion of his mind to create a Universe-level soul secret technique.

He was determined to showcase all his strengths.

Having cultivated three volumes of the Xuan Yi Sutra, not only had his Origin Source grown stronger, but his physical body and soul had also been fortified.

Now, there was still the matter of further enhancing his body.

At that moment, he thought of the divine blood he had obtained.

He pulled out a drop of silver divine blood.

Connecting it to his ability of being formless and shapeless, which allowed him to change his form at will, he realized he could transform into a powerful member of the Divine Eye Clan.

”Transform!”

With a flicker, he morphed into a member of the Divine Eye Clan.

The Divine Eye Clan indeed resembled the World Beasts in a way-they both had a single eye.

Reflecting on the appearance of the Titan Star Spirit, it looked remarkably similar to the single-eyed World Beast.

It wasn’t surprising that the Divine Eye Clan’s creator had fashioned them in this way. The appearance and abilities of the Divine Eye Clan were clearly custom-designed based on the creator’s own image.

Jian Wushuang smiled faintly.

He then began to study the silver blood.

”What exactly is hidden within this blood?”

Jian Wushuang pondered over it for quite some time, but he couldn’t make out any clues.

Just then, a voice transmission from the First Layer World reached him, prompting him to pause.

”Has this guy finally come to his senses?” Jian Wushuang smiled calmly.

After leaving the other party hanging for so long, he wondered what kind of surprises awaited him.

In the First Layer World, at the center of a barren land, that one-eyed creature leaned against a damaged treasure, nurturing his body.

Upon entering this place, he had discovered that his injuries were slowly healing. However, his combat strength remained suppressed.

The sensation was indescribable, much like the words Jian Wushuang had spoken to him earlier.

Whoosh!

Jian Wushuang’s figure appeared in the distance and approached with steady steps. As he drew near, Jian Wushuang tilted his head, glancing at the damaged treasure hovering behind the one-eyed creature, and remarked in surprise, ”A damaged Universe treasure? You’ve certainly got quite a collection of rare items on you!”

”You?” The one-eyed creature was utterly shocked at Jian Wushuang’s sudden appearance, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Jian Wushuang didn’t immediately realize what the issue was and took a quick look around the area.

”What’s wrong with you? Weren’t you the one who called me here?”

The one-eyed creature stared at him in terror, stammering, ”You... you’re also from the Divine Eye Clan!!!”

Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh.

It was only then that he remembered he had transformed into a member of the Divine Eye Clan and had forgotten to revert back.

Having spent the last ten thousand years focused entirely on cultivation, he hadn’t. paid much attention to his appearance, sometimes even training in the form of a World Beast.

Realizing his mistake, Jian Wushuang decided to roll with it. ”Heh, I know all the secrets of the Divine Eye Clan. If I weren’t one of them, wouldn’t that be even more shocking?”

”But why would you suppress your own kind? Are you... are you the creator of our Divine Eye Clan?” The one-eyed creature seemed to have stumbled upon an earth-shattering secret of his race.

Jian Wushuang pretended to be solemn as he said, ”I’m not like him!”

After speaking, he shook his head and sat quietly to the side, not initiating any further conversation.

”By the way, why did you call me here?” he asked.

”I was just testing to see if you were still here!” Yiluan forced a bitter smile.

Hearing that there was nothing wrong, Jian Wushuang turned around, pretending to leave.

This time, Yiluan panicked a little. He was now more curious about his own tribe than Jian Wushuang was.

”Wait!”

Jian Wushuang’s lips curled into a smile. He slowly turned around and said, ”What? Do you think I have time to waste on your nonsense?”

”Don’t you want to know the whereabouts of the other Divine Eye Clan members?” Yiluan probed.

This time, Jian Wushuang’s interest was piqued.

He truly did want to know. Even if they were not his opponents, it was still important to be aware of where the Divine Eye Clan’s experts were, what their strength was, and what their internal structure looked like.

”Speak, what do you want in exchange?” Jian Wushuang stopped, found a place to sit, and assumed a posture as if he were ready to negotiate.

Yiluan’s eyes darted around for a moment before he spoke. ”I want to know your identity. Why are you suppressing the Divine Eye Clan? Could it really be that you violated the Supreme Rules?”

”You guessed right. I did indeed violate the Supreme Rules,” Jian Wushuang admitted without any hesitation, nodding his head.

This left Yiluan at a loss for words. He clearly didn’t believe it.

Before Yiluan could speak again, Jian Wushuang cut him off. ”Now it’s your turn to answer my question. Where did you encounter the Divine Eye Clan’s experts?”

”You haven’t told me your identity yet!” Yiluan retorted.

”My name is Jian Wushuang. I specialize in suppressing the Divine Eye Clan as the divine emissary. If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do.”

This time, Yiluan didn’t argue. Instead, he nodded and said, ”I believe you.”

He had no choice but to believe it now because, after mulling over what Jian

Wushuang had said earlier, Yiluan felt that it might actually be possible.

Moreover, after Jian Wushuang had suppressed him, he hadn’t killed him or asked any further questions about the Divine Eye Clan.

During the tens of thousands of years that had passed, Yiluan had no idea what Jian Wushuang had been doing. He couldn’t help but send him a telepathic message. Seeing that Yiluan had taken the bait, Jian Wushuang was in no hurry. He leisurely said, ”Your strength is quite impressive. You have peak combat power, and your Divine Eye secret technique has reached the third transformation in its perfected form. If it weren’t for your serious injuries, you would’ve had a great chance of becoming a Tribulation-level expert.

”Your Excellency flatters me. I know my limits well. Before the Great Destruction, I had already reached the peak, but after so many years of recovery, I’ve made no progress. With this injury, I’ve long lost all hope,” Yiluan said with a bitter smile, shaking his head.

Indeed, his talent was quite average.

His combat power relied on his clan’s innate abilities and the Divine Eye secret technique. Otherwise, among the human race, he would at most be a fourth-stage Emperor. On the Realm God Continent, he would be as common as dirt.

Jian Wushuang, however, gave him hope. ”If you were out in the world, you really wouldn’t have any hope. But here, you still have a chance. Not only can you recover from your injuries, but you also have the opportunity to take that crucial next step!”

”You must be joking!” Yiluan scoffed.

Seeing his disbelief, Jian Wushuang immediately shifted the space around them.

From the first layer, they directly entered the third layer.

Moreover, it was the Origin Source within the third layer.

The power and Origin Source here were incredibly abundant, a million times more potent than the outside world.

One could say this was the very core of the entire universe.

At first, Yiluan was astonished by Jian Wushuang’s strength, as he could easily shift between spaces. He was also shocked by this treasure, which was specifically designed to suppress their Divine Eye Clan, and its ability to shift locations at will. However, when he sensed the power here, his entire being instantly became invigorated.

Jian Wushuang didn’t hide anything from him and revealed some of the specific functions of the Nine Prison Pagoda. This time, Yiluan remained silent.
