Ouyang Yangwen strode through the tunnel. Although he did not move quickly, he crossed a very large distance with each step. As he advanced, his presence steadily climbed. The sword in his hand erupted with a powerful sword Qi, causing the entire tunnel to gently tremble.
During these nine years, the tunnel continued to strengthen.
The tunnel was constantly being strengthened as well. The tunnel was now strong enough to support the passage of Reciprocity experts. Even if Reciprocity experts fought in there, it would be very difficult for them to destroy it.
Ouyang Yangwen's presence became more and more powerful. It had already reached its peak. This was the place where he would display his peak strength for the first time since reaching Reciprocity.
Several Origin realm experts from the World of Forsaken Saints constantly attacked the supreme divine hall at the end of the tunnel. They immediately stopped when they sensed the tremendous presence behind them. They looked back at Ouyang Yangwen, who was getting closer and closer. Their eyes narrowed before they all clasped their hands and bowed at him.
"All of you, get out. Leave this to me," Ouyang Yangwen said coldly. His face was extremely sunken. He swung his sword and immediately, a huge streak of light several hundred meters long shot out with resplendent light. It heavily struck the supreme divine hall with devastating power.
With a boom, the streak of light struck the supreme divine hall. It erupted with powerful ripples of energy that wreaked havoc in the tunnel, shaking up the entire tunnel and causing it to rumble heavily. The tunnel began to gently tremble.
However, the supreme divine hall was so tough that even the Spiritking could only make the divine hall tremble when it was filled with energy. Although Ouyang Yangwen had reached Reciprocity, the gap between him and the Spiritking was still as wide as a chasm. Aside from a deafening boom, the divine hall did not even shake when he struck it with such a great force.
"I'd like to see just how much longer you can last," Ouyang Yangwen said coldly. Ouyang Yangwen said coldly. He was not discouraged at all. He stood in the tunnel proudly and began to constantly attack. He used his full strength every single time, as if he wanted to vent all his hatred for the Tian Yuan Continent on the divine hall before him.
All the Origin realm experts of the Tian Yuan Continent had gathered in the supreme divine hall. A snow-white fur floated in the center of them all. In the past few years, they had been comprehending the Way of Slaughter that Mo Tianyun had left behind in the past. However, after all these years, none of them had comprehended the Way of Slaughter.
At this moment, none of them had comprehended the Way of Slaughter. The attacks the divine hall endured had increased by several times in a single moment. Although they were not as powerful as the Spiritking's attacks, they still made everyone in the divine hall stern.
"Is the World of Forsaken Saints about to launch a large-scale invasion? They must have gathered the power of many Origin realm experts to unleash attacks like this. If they keep attacking like this, we'll be able to last much less time, "Guiyidao guessed. Guihai Yidao said in a deep voice. In that instant, their consumption of Quintessence Power increased by several times.
"The tunnel is only so large. It can't hold too many people attacking at once. Perhaps someone from the World of Forsaken Saints has broken through to Reciprocity," said Feng Xiaotian.
Hearing this, everyone in the Supreme Divine Hall fell silent. Their faces became unprecedentedly solemn.
"We need to consume a Mortal Energy Fruit every three or four years to recover origin energy. Now that the attacks have increased, we're consuming the fruit at a faster rate. If this continues, we won't be able to last much longer with the remaining Mortal Energy Fruits. We can only place our hopes on Jianchen now. We hope that Jianchen can make it back before we break through the defensive line, or our world will be reduced to ashes," said Houston.
"Can Jianchen increase his strength to the point where he doesn't need to fear the Spiritking in such a short amount of time?" Tian Jian asked. He was filled with worry. He knew that Jianchen's talent was unprecedented, and his rate of cultivation was unprecedented. However, the gap between the Origin realm and Godhood was just too great. Could Jianchen do it in such a short amount of time?
.....
Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er put on their clothes in the space created by the Yinyang Saint Rock and left the crater. Shangguan Mu' er directly returned to the hut and began to refine the energy within her while Jianchen sat down in an empty spot a hundred kilometers away. He began to refine the yin and yang Qi he had just absorbed.
In the past few years, Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er had been absorbing the yin and yang Qi from the Yinyang Saint Rock through dual cultivation. Afterwards, they began to refine the energy within them as quickly as they could before absorbing the yin and yang Qi again. They repeated this cycle tirelessly because they knew that they could not last for much longer on the Tian Yuan Continent. As a result, the two of them did everything they could to increase their strength. They did not relax at all.
Several days later, Jianchen was the first to awaken. He had refined all the yin and yang Qi he had absorbed, becoming a part of Chaotic Force. As a result, the chaotic neidan in his dantian had grown slightly.
Although Shangguan Mu 'er's speed at refining energy had increased after reaching Returnance, she was still unable to match up to Jian Chen. She was still in seclusion, refining the energy in her body.
"I wonder how much time has passed on the Tian Yuan Continent and what the situation is like." Jianchen slowly opened his eyes. He stared at the hazy sky in a daze as some worry appeared on his face. However, he knew that he could not return just yet. With his current strength, he would not be able to change anything even if he returned. It was better for him to spend more time on cultivation and become stronger as soon as possible. Only then would he be able to stop the World of Forsaken Saints.
Jianchen gently sighed. He dismissed his thoughts and continued to cultivate. His soul fused with the Azulet swords as he completely immersed himself in comprehending the Way of the Sword. He gradually entered a meditative state.
As Jianchen entered a meditative state, a layer of white light gradually appeared around him, covering every inch of his body. At the same time, an extremely sharp sword intent radiated from him, permeating a radius of several dozen kilometers. As the sword intent permeated the area, the air and all the invisible energy in the surroundings suddenly froze before becoming sharp. Under the influence of the sword intent, they became strands of invisible sword Qi.
The space within a radius of dozens of miles had completely turned into a world filled with sword Qi, a world that completely belonged to the sword.
In the past few years, Jianchen's comprehension of the Way of the Sword had reached the peak of partial achievement of Sword Origin. He was about to reach Major Achievement. However, whenever he comprehended the Way of the Sword, a strand of sword intent would radiate out, enveloping a radius of several dozen kilometers. In order to not disturb Shangguan Mu 'er's cultivation, Jianchen chose to cultivate a hundred kilometers away.
However, at this moment, the sword Qi around Jianchen increased by several times in a single instance. At the same time, the white light around Jianchen suddenly swelled as well, forming a pillar that reached into the sky. It shone with resplendent light, illuminating the entire world.
At the same time, a supreme sword Qi radiated from Jianchen in all directions. It ripped through space and destroyed the ground. Large swathes of spatial cracks appeared in the surrounding several dozen kilometers. The grey ground rapidly sank as well. As the ground sank, the dust that had vanished was not compressed. Instead, it had truly vanished. It was reduced to nothingness before the supreme sword Qi, as if it had evaporated into thin air.
In just a few seconds, a ten-meter-thick layer of dust vanished from the surrounding several dozen kilometers. The only thing that remained the same was the three-meter-wide area where Jian Chen sat. Jian Chen's entire body was enveloped by a powerful pillar of light, such that it was impossible to see his figure from the outside.
The pillar of light that pierced the sky and gave off powerful sword Qi constantly changed. In the end, it gradually formed a divine sword that stood between the heavens and the earth. The illusory divine sword was so powerful that it could destroy the heavens and the earth.
At the same time, Jian Chen's soul strengthened at an unbelievable rate. At that moment, his comprehension of the Way of the Sword had finally reached the Major Achievement of Sword Origin. With the breakthrough in his comprehension of the Way of the Sword, his soul had improved as well.
Jianchen felt his soul rapidly swell, developing from a child to an adult. At every moment, Jianchen could feel his soul strengthening, breaking through Returnance like a hot knife through butter and directly reaching Reciprocity.
It did not stop there. After reaching Reciprocity, the strength of his soul continued to climb. It rapidly strengthened as if it was endless. It directly broke through early Reciprocity, mid Reciprocity, and only stopped when it reached late Reciprocity.
At that moment, Jianchen could clearly sense that his soul had become unprecedentedly powerful. He had never experienced such power before. If he took another small step forward, his soul would surpass the Origin realm and formally reach Godhood.
Jianchen's strength had not reached the level where he could fend off the Spiritking during the nine years of seclusion, but it had still increased drastically. First, his Chaotic Body had reached the sixth layer, and then his comprehension of the Way of the Sword had increased, reaching major achievement from mid Sword Origin. Even his soul had increased from Returnance to late Reciprocity.
Jianchen was able to put up a fight against late Returnance experts when his Chaotic Body was at the fifth layer and his Way of the Sword was at mid Sword Origin. Now, he was able to put up a fight against Reciprocity experts.
The white light around Jianchen gradually faded. Even the huge sword condensed from powerful sword Qi slowly vanished. Jianchen reappeared in the surroundings.
Jian Chen opened his eyes and looked at the ground that had sunk ten meters into the ground. His expression did not change at all. With a single step, he vanished, and when he reappeared, he was over ten kilometers away.
With just a few steps, Jianchen had traveled over a hundred kilometers. Shangguan Mu 'er stood before him in her violet dress. She had been waiting for him for quite some time already.
She had reached late Returnance as well.
"You've broken through?" Shangguan Mu 'er's enchanting eyes were filled with gentleness as she looked at Jian Chen. Her voice was melodious and possessed a hint of charm, making people feel numb.
Jianchen nodded, "I've broken through slightly, but I'm still an extremely large distance away from the Spiritking. However, my Chaotic Body has reached the peak of the sixth layer, so I only need to absorb the energy from the Yinyang Saint Rock once more to reach the seventh layer. The first to sixth layer of the Chaotic Body can only be regarded as minor achievement. Once I reach the seventh layer, I'll have reached mid Chaotic Body. At the same time, I need to comprehend the ways of the world to reach the seventh layer, which is why the gap between the sixth and seventh layers is unimaginably great. I just don't know what level my strength will reach once I reach the seventh layer. Will I be able to put up a fight against the Spiritking? "
