When Qin Wentian came to participate in the Convention of the Myriad Realms, he also didn't expect that he would encounter his mother's clan. This could also be considered a coincidence. If it wasn't for Ten Miles Springwind suggesting to rob the Heaven Immortal Tower, most probably even if he encountered Luoshen Lei, he wouldn't know that there was such a relationship between them and would only treat her as a stranger.
Right now, the influence of this matter on Qin Wentian's state of heart had already surpassed the convention itself.
However to the many world overlords of the Mystic Region, the Convention of the Myriad Realms was the true purpose of their trip here. Their gazes were still focused on the convention in the outside world.
It has already been some time since Qin Wentian released thirteen heavenheart mandates and the various supreme geniuses all stepped out to display their brilliance. Although there were still people who went to the Heavenheart Mirror to display their heavenheart mandates, there was no longer a commotion like that day. This lasted until the light from the Heavenheart Mirror vanished from the ancient mountain. That ancient mountain seemed to have transformed into an ordinary mountain, no longer possessing the miraculous power of the Heavenheart Mirror.
But on the second day after the Heavenheart Mirror vanished, on top of the ancient mountain, in the Time Realm, four resplendent beams of light suddenly lit up. These four beams of light seemed to have descended from the heavens. These four beams of light illuminated every corner of the Time Realm, resembling four stone tablets hovering in the air. There were experts who wanted to grab them but they discovered that there was nothing in their hands. They were like beams of light, impossible to grab or even touch.
"What is that?" At this moment, in the palace Qin Wentian was in, Mo Qingcheng stood beside Qin Wentian and asked in a light voice. The four beams of light were too resplendent, there seemed to be strange diagrams engraved on them that radiated the might of the great dao. Qin Wentian also couldn't see through them. He stared at the four beams of light and replied, "There would always be some miraculous treasures appearing in the Convention of the Myriad Realms every time, testing the world overlords who came here to participate in the convention. It's just that I have no way to see through them."
"Is all of this really controlled by the three hegemonic powers in the shadows?" Mo Qingcheng asked in a light voice. It was rumored that the Time Realm was the place where the Time King cultivated back then. Maybe, there might be some ruins left behind by the Time King. Naturally, this was only a guess.
"Who knows? However, as the giants of the Xuan Region, the three great powers are unparalleled existences. Without a doubt, they know everything the best," said Qin Wentian in a soft voice.
In another palace, the eyes of Old Ghost stared up in the air. When he saw the four spiraling stone monuments, his eyes narrowed into slits as his expression turned heavy. This seemed to be the legendary Time Monument Inscription. Even in the Convention of the Myriad Realms, it was extremely rare. He had already participated in many conventions but this was the second time he saw the Time Monument Inscription.
In the past, he had only appeared once. After the Time Monument Inscription appeared, a character that even the three hegemonic powers of the Mystic Region felt trepidation towards appeared. Right now, that person had already become a legend in the Mystic Region. As for Qin Wentian, he was still a nobody.
Old Ghost took out his messaging crystal and sent out a few strands of immortal sense, "All of you, come to my location."
"Old ghost, what's the matter?" Ten Miles Springwind asked.
"Right." Cao Tian nodded.
Phoenix and Qin Wentian both replied and rushed over. Old Ghost was the most mysterious among the five of them and was also the oldest. Qin Wentian always felt that he was a little mysterious. Back then when this old ghost entered Time City, he wore a simple robe and had a hunched back. Even Jun Mengchen thought that he was just an ordinary old man. If it wasn't for the fact that Qin Wentian was at the world overlord realm and could sense it, he would have thought the same as well.
Not long after, the few of them arrived at Old Ghost's location.
"Old Ghost, why did you suddenly think of us? Is it because of the four beams of light in the sky?" Phoenix asked.
"Mhm, other than Wentian, this isn't the first time you guys have participated in the Convention of the Myriad Realms. Have you all seen such a scene before?" Old Ghost asked.
"Nope." The few of them shook their heads. Cao Tian spoke, "You should have participated in the convention the most. Could it be that you know something? Is there something different about these four beams of light?"
"I've seen it before a very long time ago. During that convention, there was another person who participated in it. You guys definitely know who he is." Old Ghost mysteriously spoke.
"Who?" Ten Miles Springwind curiously asked. The others also stared at Old Ghost. This fellow was trying to keep them in suspense.
"Swordjunlai." Old Ghost slowly spoke.
"Who?" Ten Miles Springwind was bewildered. He had never heard of such a person before.
"I don't know." Cao Tian shook his head. Phoenix also stared at Old Ghost in bewilderment.
Qin Wentian had a face filled with black lines. Didn't Old Ghost say that he would definitely know? Why didn't any of them know? This old ghost …
The mysterious Old Ghost also had a face filled with black lines. He speechlessly stared at these people before him and spoke, "I forgot your ages. Maybe you guys don't know his real name. In that case, he has another title, Sword Monarch."
"What?" Ten Miles Springwind instantly froze. His eyes flashed with a dazzling light. He had never heard of Swordjunlai before but how could he not know the name Sword Monarch? This person was definitely an awesome character, a legendary character.
"The Sword Monarch of the Mystic Region, the number one sword under the heavens." Cao Tian's eyes narrowed as he stared at Old Ghost. "Old Ghost, how old are you exactly? You actually participated in the Convention of the Myriad Realms with the Sword Monarch before."
Ten Miles Springwind and Phoenix had strange expressions on their faces when they heard this. They stared at Old Ghost with disdain.
"The Sword Monarch's name has already shaken the world and is known as the number one sword under the heavens in the Mystic Region. Old man, you are still participating in the Convention of the Myriad Realms? Isn't the disparity between you two a little too great?" Phoenix spoke in disdain. Old Ghost's expression completely turned black. "Alright, all of you can leave now. I don't wish to speak anymore."
"Don't, Old Ghost. Did the Sword Monarch really participate in the Convention of the Myriad Realms with you?" Ten Miles Springwind smiled and asked curiously. The Sword Monarch was his idol.
"Hmph, do you guys really think it's very long? How long has the Sword Monarch been famous? It hasn't even reached 100,000 years. Is it very long to cultivate for 100,000 years in the World Overlord Realm? " Old Ghost glared at these people before him. "If everyone here has the talent of the Sword Monarch, my name would have already shaken the world by now. Would I still need to see you guys?"
"Yes yes, there's no harm if there's no comparison." Ten Miles Springwind giggled. "In that case, back then when the Sword Monarch participated in the Convention of the Myriad Realms together with you, the scene before your eyes also appeared?"
"Mhm." Old Ghost had a heavy expression on his face as he nodded, "Back then when Sword Monarch came to participate in the convention, he wasn't really famous. But his performance was extremely dazzling and was noticed by many people. He even had a conflict with a genius from the Heaven Shrouding Manor. You guys should know what happened next. Sword Monarch came alone with a sword and razed the entire Heaven Shrouding Manor to flat ground. This caused a huge commotion and the three hegemonic powers all had some opinions about him. One of them even wanted to capture him because the Heaven Shrouding Manor was a vassal state of that hegemonic power. You guys should know which hegemonic power I'm talking about.
"In that case, the rumor that the Sword Monarch came to the Heavenly Deity Mountain to challenge that heavenly deity and defeated him was true?" Ten Miles Springwind asked.
"The truth is even more exaggerated than the rumors. If not, why do you think that heavenly deity compromised and didn't pursue the matter? The title of the Sword Monarch also resounded throughout the Mystic Region. However, it's said that he also made some compromises. From then on, very few people saw him." Old Ghost slowly spoke.
"Wasn't there a rumor that he might have already been killed? Could it be true?" Cao Tian asked.
"Naturally not." Old Ghost directly denied. Cao Tian stared at him in bewilderment, "Why are you so sure? Could it be that you know something?"
"How could the Sword Monarch be killed?" Old Ghost didn't reply to Cao Tian. After that, he continued, "Alright, let's not talk about the matters of the past for now. Let's talk about proper business. These four beams of light are known as the Time Monument Inscriptions. I'm sure that they have nothing to do with the four hegemons. They were left behind by the Time Realmlord."
"Time Realmlord." The eyes of everyone flashed with sharpness. "What are these Time Monument Inscriptions exactly?"
"I don't know. I only know that back then during the convention of the myriad realms, the Sword Monarch comprehended the true intent of the Time Monument Inscriptions. From then on, his sword improved by leaps and bounds until he was given the title of the number one sword expert in the Mystic Region. As for what he comprehended, I have no idea. Maybe, everyone's comprehension of the Time Monument Inscriptions is different." Old Ghost slowly spoke.
"Seems like another Sword Monarch has been born." Ten Miles Springwind mumbled in a low voice as he seriously spoke.
"Who?" Cao Tian glanced at him as he asked.
"He's right in front of you. You can't see it?" Ten Miles Springwind asked in bewilderment.
"Scram!" Cao Tian roared. This was simply shameless.
"Let's go to the area directly below the Time Monument Inscriptions. Although we can see it from here, I feel that there's still a difference." Old Ghost spoke. After that, five figures flashed and flew towards the direction of the ancient mountain where the Heavenheart Mirror disappeared.
When they arrived, there were already many world overlords gathered here, including the hegemonic-level world overlords from the various peak powers.
What Old Ghost knew, maybe ordinary world overlords wouldn't know. But for these peak powers of the Mystic Region, they would definitely know. Hence, they treated the appearance of the Time Monument Inscriptions with extreme importance. Even the transcendent-level world overlords of the older generations were here. They sat cross-legged in different locations on the ancient mountain, staring at the four rotating Time Monument Inscriptions in the air.
Qin Wentian and the other four sat together. He was the same as the others, staring at the Time Monument Inscriptions in the air. The Sword Monarch, Jian Junlai. Although he had never heard of him before, but since he could be given the title of the number one sword expert under the heavens, one could very well imagine how powerful he was. Maybe, his accomplishments didn't depend solely on the Time Monument Inscriptions, but it was still worth exploring.
