Sword Heart Island was vast and boundless. It was as big as the Chaotic Land.
On the east side of Sword Heart Island stood a stone stele. This stone stele was huge and it was a million zhang tall. On the stone stele, there was a black word 'sword'. The word 'sword' was like a living creature, constantly moving about as if it was executing a peerless sword art. However, upon closer inspection, the word 'sword' had not moved at all.
The word "sword" was special. It seemed to be able to transmit images through time and space. No matter how far it was, it could be seen. Of course, the farther away it was, the less power it had to bear. Correspondingly, it would be less enlightened.
In front of the stone stele, there were many seats arranged in a fan shape. They were simple cushions. The cushions were far away from each other so they wouldn't disturb others.
There were thousands of rows. Ye Chen and Sword Saint stopped at the two thousand five hundredth row. Ye Chen said, "Sword Saint, I want to go a bit further."
"Alright, don't force yourself."
The Scarlet Cloud Sword Saint had already gotten used to this. Although Ye Chen's overall power was not as strong as his, his ability to endure the power of the word was much stronger than his. In fact, the Sword Saint could still move forward a few hundred rows, but that would be close to his limit. It would be very hard to comprehend the word when he was close to his limit, and he would not be able to maintain it for a long time.
Sword Saint found a seat nearby and sat down cross-legged. He started to look at the word.
The word was too powerful. The entire Sword Heart Island felt like it was covered in mercury. The air was as heavy as water. Every step forward was a burden.
Ye Chen stopped at the one thousand eight hundredth row.
Before condensing godly power, Ye Chen could only reach this point. If he went any further, he wouldn't be able to concentrate. Those who were in front of him were all sword saints who had condensed godly power.
The word 'sword' written by the Sword God was boundlessly profound, as if it was the origin of the Sword Dao. Looking at the word 'sword' could not only improve one's Heart Energy, it could improve other aspects as well. Of course, this improvement couldn't be achieved overnight. It was like the absorption of nutrients. The better the absorption, the more nutrients one would absorb. As for those who couldn't absorb it well, they would still be able to improve after a long period of accumulation.
Sensing the power of the word, Ye Chen tried his best to observe the word, trying to understand its profoundness.
After a hundred years, the Dan Yun Sword Saint left. Many people left, but many people came. The number of people didn't change much.
"Eh? It's Sword Saint Limitless! Sword Saint Limitless is here!"
A voice somehow reached Ye Chen's ears.
Shifting his gaze away from the word, Ye Chen raised his head.
A figure flew across the sky. This figure was not very tall and bald, but his back and shoulders were very wide and thick. He wore a grey robe and had a kind face. His eyes were very gentle, but this kind of gentleness was not one without anger. Instead, it was a gentleness that had seen through everything.
"Infinite Sword Saint!"
Ye Chen thought to himself.
Limitless Sword Saint was one of the two Ultimate Sword Saints of Sword God Palace. Apart from Idealistic Sword Saint, he was the existence closest to the True God realm of sword dao. Of course, before becoming a True God, he was still in the realm of Sword Saint. His temperament was vastly different from that of a True God. Ye Chen quickly retracted his attention and continued reading the word.
After fifty years, Ye Chen stood up.
"I have surpassed my limit."
Ye Chen flew towards the exit of Sword Heart Island as fast as lightning.
Every time he came to Sword Heart Island, Ye Chen would push himself to his limit and then surpass it.
It was very dangerous. If he was lucky, he would go mad. If he was not lucky, his mind would break. It had happened before.
The reason why Ye Chen dared to do this was because he didn't think it was as dangerous as he thought it would be. The limit of life wasn't fixed. Sometimes, you thought it was your limit, but as long as you had a strong will, you could break it. Of course, don't overestimate your will. There was a limit to everything. The real danger was in this limit. If you could control it well, it wouldn't be too dangerous and you could improve quickly. If you didn't, something bad would happen sooner or later.
"I've improved again."
After leaving Sword Heart Island, Ye Chen sensed that his Heart Power was more condensed. When it was condensed to the extreme, it would give birth to the Light of the Soul, which was the Sword of the Soul.
…
Mission Tower.
Thousands of missions would be issued in the Mission Tower every day. According to the difficulty, the missions were divided into nine levels. From low to high, they were One Star, Two Star, Three Star, and the hardest, Nine Star.
One Star to Three Star missions corresponded to Sword Saints who hadn't condensed God Power.
Four Star to Six Star missions corresponded to Sword Saints who had condensed God Power.
Seven Star to Nine Star missions corresponded to Ultimate Sword Saints, especially the Nine Star missions. Only the Idealistic Sword Saint and Infinite Sword Saint had completed them.
The Mission Tower had a total of nine floors. The first floor corresponded to One Star missions, the second floor corresponded to Two Star missions, and so on.
The reward for One Star missions wasn't very generous. The highest reward was 1,000. Although it could be accumulated, as long as one completed a lot of One Star missions, one could still get a lot of contribution points, Ye Chen didn't want to go through so much trouble.
The highest reward for Two Star missions was 5,000.
The highest reward for Three Star missions was 30,000.
The highest reward for Four Star missions was 200,000. However, it was too difficult. Only Sword Saints who had condensed God Power could complete it.
"Capture spiritual clouds. 10,000 contribution points for each one you capture."
Ye Chen had found a pretty good three star mission, which could be done repeatedly. Capturing one beam of spirit mist would complete the mission. The more you captured, the more contribution points you would get. A lot of sword saints were taking on this mission.
"This is it."
Ye Chen accepted the mission.
…
Spiritual clouds were a special kind of Essence Energy in the Celestial Realm. They were abundant in the Spiritual Cloud Mountain Range. Spiritual clouds could be used to refine Sage artifacts, set up magic arrays, or fused with God Power to increase the might of God Power. The one who issued this mission was not an ordinary Sword Saint. It was one of the Ultimate Sword Saints, the Spiritual Cloud Sword Saint.
"I'm afraid only an Ultimate Sword Saint would be so rich."
The reward for one spiritual cloud wasn't much, but 1,000 or 10,000 was a lot. Ordinary Sword Saints couldn't afford such a high reward.
The Spiritual Cloud Mountain Range wasn't close to the Sword God Palace. There was no God's Teleportation Array between them, so one could only fly slowly.
Ten years later, Ye Chen arrived at the Spiritual Cloud Mountain Range.
The majestic Spiritual Cloud Mountain Range was like a divine mountain range. It was unfathomably deep and unfathomably tall. Everywhere was filled with spiritual light. It was clearly a blessed land of the Celestial Realm.
Swish!
After entering the Spiritual Cloud Mountain Range, Ye Chen suddenly discovered a ray of light chasing after an intermediate Sword Saint.
This ray of light was as sharp as a sword. It was the spiritual cloud.
Without much hesitation, Ye Chen's figure flashed. When he approached the spiritual cloud, he made a grabbing motion with his hand. The power of the Five Elements permeated out and enveloped the spiritual cloud.
The spiritual cloud was still struggling and rampaging, causing Ye Chen's blood to boil. He was inwardly shocked.
"No wonder it's a Three-Star mission. If I hadn't comprehended the Five Elements and could use the power of the Five Elements, I wouldn't have been able to capture the spiritual cloud so easily."
Capturing spiritual clouds wasn't like fighting. Divine Skills were useless. One could only rely on one's own strength.
