"Natural Sword Embryo?" Nie Tian looked at Apocalypse 12 and couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
He had lived two lives and practiced swordsmanship since he was a child. He had never heard of natural Sword Embryo.
Apocalypse 12's gaze swept over Nie Tian and saw the latter's doubt. He smiled faintly and said, "Nie Tian, you are a swordsman. You should know better than me the division of realms in the path of the sword."
"Of course." Nie Tian's eyes darkened. "The path of the sword is similar to the realm of martial arts. There are ten realms in the Spirit Realm: Sword Technique, Sword Technique, Sword Energy, Sword Heart, Sword Will, Sword Power, Sword Spirit, Sword Soul, Sword Spirit, Sword Soul, Sword Soul, and Sword Profound.
"The ten realms of the Spirit Sword are Sword Qi, Sword Heart, Sword Heart, Sword Intent, Sword Power, Sword Spirit, Sword Spirit, Sword Spirit, Sword Spirit, Sword Spirit, Sword Soul, Sword Soul, and Sword Profound.
"After the Spirit Sword is the Divine Realm Sword Dao. There are six realms: Sword Pattern, Sword Vein, Sword Bone, Sword Essence, Sword Forgetting Self, and Unity of Sword and Martial Arts.
"After the Divine Sword, there are three realms of Transcendent Sword: Transcendent Sword Soul, Transcendent Sword Body, and Transcendent Profound.
"And at the Saint Realm, there are three realms of Mortal Saint and three realms of Supreme Saint. They are Sword Rhythm, Divine Oracle, Sword Heavenly Calamity, Sword Sense Against God, and Sword Martial Saint."
When Nie Tian finished speaking, his eyes trembled and his expression became strange. "I have practiced the sword for hundreds of years and am now at the Ninth Heaven of Holy Doctrine. I have never heard of natural Sword Embryo."
Apocalypse 12 smiled faintly and said, "Nie Tian, you are right. But do you know what is the highest realm of the Sword Dao?"
"Is it not Sword Martial Saint?" Nie Tian's eyes darkened as he exclaimed in surprise.
"Sword Martial Saint is powerful, but a swordsman ultimately pursues Unity of Sword and Man." Apocalypse 12 laughed and said, "But have you ever seen a swordsman who has Unity of Sword and Man?"
Nie Tian's eyes trembled and his expression changed. He was silent for a long time and did not speak.
Becoming One with the Sword sounded simple, but no one had ever achieved it before.
Nie Tian had seen many Sword Dao Grandmasters, but those people were still swordsmen after all. They were not strong enough to completely transcend.
"What ordinary people understand as' One with the Sword 'is nothing more than a seamless cooperation between man and sword." Apocalypse 12 smiled again and said: "But the true unity of man and sword is when the man and the sword become one. The man is the sword, and the sword is the man."
"Forget about those Transcending Divine Swordsmen, even Sword Martial Saint Defier's Master of the Sword Dao has not reached this level."
"Their Way of the Sword is indeed terrifying enough to destroy an entire Saints' World, but their comprehension remains at the level where they can control the sword with their hearts. They have not truly become one with the sword."
"The true Unity of Man and Sword does not require the swordsman's meridians and bones to be filled with Sword Intent, nor does it require the Sword Intent to reach a certain limit."
"Instead, the man and the sword become one. When man and sword become one, the swordsman transcends Yin and Yang and becomes one with the world. There are no swords in the world, but I am the sword!"
After saying this, Apocalypse 12 swept his gaze over Nie Tian. His gaze clearly contained a hint of contempt.
"Transcends Yin and Yang and becomes one with the world. There are no swords in the world, but I am the sword!" Nie Tian's eyes couldn't help but quiver when he heard Apocalypse 12's words. The shock in his heart was indescribable.
Apocalypse 12's words were like an invisible hand that had helped him open up a whole new world of the Way of the Sword, broadening his horizons.
He had never imagined that the limits of the Way of the Sword would be like this.
Wasn't the ultimate goal of the Way of the Sword to become one with the sword?
The previous realms of the Way of the Sword had also sought to become one with the sword. However, that level was on a completely different level from what Apocalypse 12 had described.
Nie Tian even doubted that this kind of swordsman that Apocalypse 12 spoke of truly existed.
"There was once a swordsman who became one with the sword in the All-Heaven Sacred Realm." The corners of Apocalypse 12's mouth twitched. "That person used a broken sword to defeat all the powerhouses of the world and reached the peak of the All-Heaven Sacred Realm. He was known as the number one person in the all-heavens and was titled the Yang God Sword Emperor."
"The Yang God Sword Emperor!" Nie Tian's eyes darkened. "Is he still alive?"
"I don't know." Apocalypse 12 shook his head. "After the Yang God Sword Emperor defeated the nine powerhouses of the current era with a single sword strike, he never appeared again. Rumor has it that he shattered the void and transcended the world. "
Nie Tian's eyes trembled. He was speechless for a long time.
After a while, Nie Tian calmed down and looked at Apocalypse 12 with a slightly gloomy gaze. "What does all this have to do with Yu Jingchen?"
Apocalypse 12's expression darkened. "Nie Tian, do you know why the Yang God Sword Emperor was able to surpass all other swordsmen and achieve the realm of becoming one with the sword?"
"Because he was born with an innate sword embryo?" Nie Tian's eyes trembled as he suddenly thought of something and asked in surprise.
"Yes." Apocalypse 12 laughed. "An innate sword embryo is a manifestation of extreme talent in the Sword Dao. The sword embryo is born within the body, and the martial body itself is a sword body. This kind of person is very likely to achieve the realm of becoming one with the sword.
"However, there is only one in a billion who is born with an innate sword embryo. Moreover, the sword embryo itself is a kind of oppression to the martial body. Very few people with an innate sword embryo can live past childhood. Most of them die prematurely.
"As for Yu Jingchen, he was born with an innate sword embryo. He has already passed the most difficult period, so if he doesn't die, his achievements in the Sword Dao will most likely catch up to the Yang God Sword Emperor. He might even surpass the Yang God Sword Emperor and become the number one person in the Sword Dao!"
Nie Tian's eyes narrowed. He was shocked to the extreme.
He didn't expect Yu Jingchen to have such talent!
"An innate sword embryo, but someone destroyed his yuan meridians at this time. What a pity." Apocalypse 12 looked at Nie Tian with a gloomy expression and let out a long sigh.
Nie Tian's face was gloomy. After a long time, he calmed down and said, "Apocalypse 12, you said that an innate sword embryo is the manifestation of extreme talent in the Sword Dao. Why do I feel that Yu Jingchen's talent in the Sword Dao is inferior to mine?
Yu Jingchen's current talent is indeed inferior to yours. " Apocalypse 12's expression changed slightly, and he said with a strange expression, "It's because his sword embryo has been sealed by someone with a strange technique."
"Sealed?" Nie Tian's expression changed again, and he exclaimed in shock.
"Yes." Apocalypse 12 nodded and said, "According to my observation, his sword embryo was sealed when he was born. Perhaps this is the reason why he didn't die young."
Nie Tian's expression darkened, and he fell silent again.
If what Apocalypse 12 said was true, then who was the person who sealed Yu Jingchen's sword embryo?
Was it Sacred Heaven Laozu's Crimson Life Loyal Heart?
Yu Jingchen was a member of the Heaven Martial Association, and the Crimson Life Loyal Heart was the Association's president. He was a peerless swordsman of the era, so he had the motive and ability to seal the sword embryo!
