The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 642: Chapter 642 Law Power

Although Jing Yan also wanted to quickly reach the bottom of the Death Abyss, he couldn’t control the Qiankun Small World at this time and could only let it drift along the currents.

Furthermore, even if he reached the bottom of the Death Abyss, he probably wouldn’t be able to leave.

Being anxious was useless; it was best to just let nature take its course.

The power contained within the Divine Crystal was indeed terrifying.

Jing Yan had ascended from the Daoist Master Realm Peak to the Dao King Realm. Although he used a substantial amount of other resources to replenish the Fog Vortex, the energy consumed from the Divine Crystals was the main component. Yet to date, not a single Divine Crystal had been depleted.

After several months of relentless cultivation and absorbing the Divine Crystal, not even one crystal’s energy was exhausted.

Jing Yan couldn’t help but once again marvel at the fierce energy contained in the Divine Crystals. No wonder that even Martial Artists from the Dao Emperor Realm absorbed the energy of Divine Crystals at a slow pace.

With his cultivation, if not for the ”Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill,” he wouldn’t have dared to think about absorbing the energy within the Divine Crystals.

Inside the Qiankun Small World, there was nothing else to do—every day was spent cultivating.

Liantian seldom appeared in front of Jing Yan. Each time he showed up, it was mostly to urge Jing Yan to continue advancing his cultivation. Jing Yan understood Liantian’s meaning; his realm was ultimately too low. With his current strength, staying in the Death Abyss was extremely dangerous unless he never left the Qiankun Small World. Once he left the Qiankun Small World, his life would be insecure.

Moreover, he had formidable enemies on the Heavenly Origin Continent. With his current strength, even if he could successfully escape from the Death Abyss, then what?

Was avenging himself against the Gai Family with his Dao King Realm cultivation really an option?

The ancestor of the Gai Family, Gu Wanquan, was at the Dao Emperor Realm Peak—extremely formidable. It wasn’t just that Jing Yan had recently ascended to the Dao King Realm; even at the Peak of the Dao King Realm, it would be difficult to contend against Gu Wanquan.

Enhancing his power was the most important thing.

Time passed day by day.

About every month, Jing Yan would split a strand of his Divine Soul to examine the environment outside the Qiankun Small World.

Without exception, every split Divine Soul was instantly annihilated.

Clearly, the Qiankun Small World had not yet reached the bottom of the Death Abyss.

However, as time went on, Jing Yan’s cultivation deepened significantly.

After stepping into the Dao King Realm, Jing Yan spurred the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, and the speed of absorbing Divine Crystals increased noticeably. With the speed of absorption increased, Jing Yan’s cultivation progressed faster.

About a year passed, and Jing Yan’s realm reached the Middle Daoist King Realm.

Such a rate of advancement was terrifying. On the Heavenly Origin Continent, it was absolutely horrifying.

A breakthrough from the Early Stage Daoist King Realm to the Middle Daoist King Realm usually took at least several decades for ordinary Martial Artists.

This wasn’t entirely due to Jing Yan’s talent. If it hadn’t been for the use of Divine Crystals, Jing Yan would not have been able to break through from the Early Stage of the Dao King Realm to the Middle Stage in such a short time.

Within a year, Jing Yan had only used the second Divine Crystal.

He obtained more than nine hundred Divine Crystals from the Lingluo Cave Mansion, and over a year, only two were consumed, making Jing Yan utterly unpressured. At this rate of consumption, even stepping into the Saint Realm wouldn’t deplete all the Divine Crystals.

However, after consuming two Divine Crystals, Jing Yan suddenly experienced some indescribable feelings.

Sword Intent!

Long ago, Jing Yan had comprehended low-level Sword Intent, which, to an extent, could utilize the force of heaven and earth. However, as his cultivation strengthened, the utility of the Sword Intent became less and less significant, ultimately ceasing to be effective.

The low-level Sword Intent, while possibly possessing significant control and binding power for ordinary Postnatal Martial Artists, had little effect on Innate Martial Artists. Unless it was a surprise, it was hard to pose a threat to them.

Jing Yan had also persisted in studying Sword Intent, trying to further enhance its power, but had no clue at all. The low-level Sword Intent he had comprehended seemed utterly impossible to upgrade. Gradually, Jing Yan rarely focused on or used his low-level Sword Intent.

Yet now, Jing Yan suddenly experienced a mysterious insight involuntarily.

He drew out his blue Longsword Dao Artifact and waved it casually in the space.

”Eh?”

”This feeling...”

Jing Yan distinctly felt that as he swung the longsword, it seemed to merge with space.

Jing Yan quickly gathered his focus, completely immersing himself in this mysterious insight.

After a long while, Jing Yan opened his eyes.

”Kid, not bad!” Liantian said with a smile.

While Jing Yan was wielding the longsword, Liantian had watched for a long time. Seeing Jing Yan immersed, he didn’t speak to interrupt. Only when Jing Yan opened his eyes did he speak.

”Senior, I feel... a bit strange.” Jing Yan immediately didn’t know how to describe his insight.

”Control Power!”

”Your control over the surrounding space has increased, right? Even if you close your eyes, you can sense everything around you, right?” Liantian said with a smile.

Jing Yan looked at Liantian.

Just as Liantian said, he indeed felt a new sense of control.

”There’s nothing strange.”

”Jing Yan, you comprehended Sword Intent a long time ago, and now with the help of Divine Crystals, it’s quite normal for you to take your Sword Intent to a new level.” Liantian nodded slightly.

”Has my Sword Intent broken through?” Jing Yan, hearing what Liantian said, showed a sudden look of realization, but then furrowed his brows again, ”But I feel something different! Previously, my Sword Intent had little power, although it could utilize the force of the environment, it was negligible for Martial Artists in the Dao Spirit Realm.”

”Now, however, I feel I can control everything.”

”It seems that any random strike I make can kill Martial Artists in the Daoist Master Realm or even Dao King Realm. I don’t even need to use any Martial Arts.” Jing Yan frowned, ”Could it be, I’m mistaken?”

Jing Yan wasn’t sure about the accuracy of his feelings.

There was no one in the Qiankun Small World to test it on.

Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Liantian slightly shook his head again.

”Jing Yan, your feeling isn’t wrong,” Liantian calmly said, ”With just a casual strike now, you can indeed easily kill ordinary Dao King Realm Martial Artists. Even for those at the Peak Dao King Realm, like that man called Elder Yin in front of you, couldn’t withstand a few of your strikes. It’s really easy for you to kill such Martial Artists.”

”Because you’re using the power of nature, the Power of Laws,” Liantian’s voice suddenly deepened.

”Ah?” Jing Yan looked at Liantian in surprise.

The Power of Laws?

Wasn’t it that only Martial Artists in the Saint Realm could utilize the Power of Laws? Yet he was merely a Martial Artist in the Dao King Realm.
