At the summit of Qingyun Peak, Liu Tianyu sat cross-legged on a rock. His expression was unfathomable as he muttered, "This brat's Mental Energy is actually so strong. If I do not use the Divine Weapon, I will not be able to stop him."
Under the night sky, Xiao Chen's figure flickered continuously as he quickly leaped towards the summit of Qingyun Peak. Xiao Chen paused for a while on the precipice and used the Gravity Spell to climb up.
When Xiao Chen landed on the summit again, it was exactly the same as in his dream. He looked at the old man on the rock and said, "The next time you look for me, I hope you do not intrude into my dreams."
In the depths of everyone's dreams, there were secrets. If this secret was discovered by others, it could be used by the opponent to attack the weakness of one's state of mind in battle.
Although it was extremely difficult to enter the depths of a dream, especially for a cultivator with strong Mental Energy like Xiao Chen, it was even more difficult to enter.
Furthermore, Liu Tianyu did not do so. However, Xiao Chen felt that it was dangerous and felt somewhat displeased.
Liu Tianyu smiled faintly and did not answer Xiao Chen's question directly. "Do you remember what you promised me?"
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I remember. As long as it is within my capabilities and does not go against my heart, I can do it."
"Do you know what mission you will be going on tomorrow?" Liu Tianyu looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "Have you ever thought about why there is a limit on the number, an age, and the Saber Emperor Convening Order?"
Naturally, Xiao Chen had thought about this before. However, the higher-ups did not want to talk about it. The clues were limited, so there was no way for him to figure it out. He just had to face it calmly. Xiao Chen did not think too much about this.
Now that Liu Tianyu asked this, could it be that the mission he arranged for Xiao Chen had something to do with this mission?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen could not help but ask, "Could the mission you arranged for me be related to this mission?"
"That's right. I won't beat around the bush. Since it's already the last day, there's no need to keep it a secret." Liu Tianyu paused for a moment as his expression turned serious.
"You should have heard about the Demonic Calamity twenty years ago, right? What you heard was only the tip of the iceberg. The Heavenly Saber Pavilion's losses in that calamity were far greater than what the rumors said."
"An Inferior Grade Martial Sage, ten Martial Monarchs, and countless Martial Kings. The biggest loss is that the previous Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, who had the highest chance of advancing to Emperor Wu, died."
When Xiao Chen heard this, he could not help but be startled. One Martial Sage, ten Martial Monarchs, and countless Martial Kings had died.
Such a strong force was sufficient to sweep through the entire Great Qin Nation. How horrifying was this force to be able to annihilate all these people?
When Liu Tianyu saw the astonished expression on Xiao Chen's face, he continued, "The strength of the demons in the Deep Abyss Demonic World is much more terrifying than you imagine.
The boundless Deep Abyss Demonic World has a total of eighteen realms. Each realm is a world of its own. Even the smallest realm, the first realm, is several times larger than the entire Tianwu Continent.
Each realm is ruled by a Realm Master. As for how strong this Realm Master is, it is impossible to measure it based on the strength of the Tianwu Continent.
Back then, the Heavenly Saber Pavilion only encountered one of the eighteen Demon Generals under the First Realm Master. The Heavenly Saber Pavilion did their best, but they could not kill this Demon General. They could only seal it temporarily. "
Liu Tianyu spoke tirelessly, telling Xiao Chen about the secret history of the past. His words were somewhat vague, but Xiao Chen could already imagine what kind of horrifying power it was.
If Emperor Wu did not appear, even a Demon General under the First Realm Master would not be able to do anything to him.
Xiao Chen raised his head and asked, "Are you saying that our mission this time has something to do with the Deep Abyss Demonic World?"
Liu Tianyu nodded and said, "That's right. Twenty years ago, the Heavenly Saber Pavilion only temporarily sealed that spatial crack. Until now, it has not been mended."
Until now, it has not been mended. Xiao Chen felt suspicious and asked, "Didn't the people of the Three Holy Masters send someone to mend it every twenty years? Could it be that they have not come to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion for forty years already? "
Liu Tianyu nodded and said, "It is as you said, the Three Holy Masters have not come to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion for forty years already."
"Why? Isn't sealing the spatial crack the responsibility of the Three Holy Masters? "Xiao Chen asked, feeling confused.
"Responsibility?" Liu Tianyu smiled self-mockingly, "You are too naive. Do you think there are such noble people in this world? Do you think they would help others out of goodwill without asking for anything in return?
In the eyes of the Three Holy Masters, an insignificant Heavenly Saber Pavilion is nothing. They are the true rulers of this continent.
Things have to be prioritized. Even if they want to deal with it, they have to start with the bigger picture. What you think is extremely urgent might not be much in their eyes. Naturally, they have to deal with the more important things first.
In the past, the reason why the Three Holy Masters would send someone over every twenty years was because there was an absolute genius in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. He was able to enter the realm of Emperor Wu before the age of fifty.
Now that this genius is dead, they might have forgotten that there is a Heavenly Saber Pavilion in the Great Qin Nation. "
Xiao Chen frowned heavily and entered deep thought. He had not expected such a simple matter to have so many dark sides to it that no one knew about.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xiao Chen said, "Based on what you said, how can I, an insignificant Martial Saint, do something that even Martial Sages and Martial Monarchs are unable to do?"
"Martial Sages and Martial Monarchs are indeed unable to do it. However, you forgot your other identity: the inheritor of the Thunder King!" Liu Tianyu looked at Xiao Chen and said sullenly, "A thousand years ago, the seal was originally complete. If not for the Thunder King making a move, the seal would not have been broken. A thousand years later, you have the responsibility, the ability, and the obligation to deal with the mess that the Thunder King left behind."
Xiao Chen's expression turned cold. He said coldly, "You don't have to keep using the name of the Thunder King to pressure me. Although I am the inheritor of the Thunder King, I am not him. I hope you understand this clearly. I am helping you out of my own will.
"If it is beyond my capabilities, I will choose another method to return it to you. Your decision is clearly beyond my capabilities. Sorry, I cannot accept it. Goodbye!"
Even a Martial Sage could not deal with it. How could he deal with it if he went? Liu Tianyu was clearly using his identity as the inheritor of the Thunder King to threaten him to his death.
"Do you really think that I gave that scabbard to you casually? Or do you think that the pure lightning-attributed Essence in your body without any impurities is just a coincidence? Do you really know why you came to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion? "
Just as Xiao Chen was about to jump off the cliff, Liu Tianyu's voice came from behind him unhurriedly.
Xiao Chen could not help but stop. He turned around and looked at Liu Tianyu. He asked, "What do you mean?"
Liu Tianyu did not answer Xiao Chen's question directly. He waved his hand and a strong suction pulled the Lunar Shadow Saber in Xiao Chen's hand over.
"Huang dang!" A snow-white saber light flashed in the dark night. Suddenly, it shone on Xiao Chen's face, making him feel uncomfortable.
Liu Tianyu looked at the snow-white Lunar Shadow Saber and muttered, "This is a pretty good saber. After merging with the second broken sword, its might is much stronger than the last time I saw it.
"Unfortunately, the owner of the saber does not know how to use it!"
Right after Liu Tianyu spoke, he tossed the saber in his hand into the dark sky. The saber suddenly released a boundless lightning.
"Rumble …!"
Lightning flashed and thunder roared. The dazzling electric light tore through the sky, leaving a space that was even darker than the night sky.
Finally, the electric light condensed and the saber's light was withdrawn. Everywhere it passed, the night sky was split in half like a piece of black cloth, falling to the sides.
Xiao Chen stared dumbfoundedly at all this. This saber could even split the sky.
"Ka ca!"
Liu Tianyu held the scabbard and waved his hand at the sky. The Lunar Shadow Saber drew an arc in the air and returned to the scabbard with a 'shua' sound.
After a long time, the two halves of the night sky slowly merged back together.
Liu Tianyu tossed the Lunar Shadow Saber back to Xiao Chen and said, "You can also use this kind of power. However, there is only one chance. Remember, there is only one chance."
Ignoring Xiao Chen's astonished expression, Liu Tianyu continued, "What I am asking you to do is naturally within your capabilities. You don't have to worry about this.
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, you should be able to understand the reasoning behind this. Why don't the strong elders go? Why only the young disciples can enter? Furthermore, there is a limit to the number of people.
"This is because once one's bone age exceeds twenty-four, they will not be able to enter that space. What you will be facing is not the true Demons, but just the projection of these Demons."
Xiao Chen received the Lunar Shadow Saber and his expression returned to normal. He said indifferently, "Cut to the chase. What do you need me to do? How can I swing that saber earlier?"
That saber earlier had given Xiao Chen a huge shock. He had never expected the Lunar Shadow Saber to be able to display such a strong force.
Xiao Chen's heart was filled with questions. Back then, when he was in the miniature Ancient Absolute Saber Formation, he already had this feeling. The true strength of the Lunar Shadow Saber was not as simple as what he had seen.
Liu Tianyu smiled and said, "What you need to do is very simple. You just have to kill the projection of the eighteen Demon Generals at the crucial moment. When you open your eyes, you will know how to execute this saber.
"In the end, this mission is still very dangerous. After you complete it, I will tell you where the third broken sword is."
What does it mean when I open my eyes?
Right after Liu Tianyu spoke, his figure slowly turned blurry in front of Xiao Chen. After a while, this space started to shatter and eventually turned into nothingness.
"Hu!"
Xiao Chen opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. He looked at his surroundings; it was the room he slept in. He looked out the window and saw that the sky had just brightened; it was still blurry.
Getting up, Xiao Chen tossed aside the blanket and quickly walked out of the courtyard. He looked at his familiar surroundings. Cold sweat poured down his back as he looked at the mountain peak in the distance. He muttered, "So, I did not break it at all. That dream was really a joke!"
After a long time, Xiao Chen recovered his wits. He drew the Lunar Shadow Saber in his hand. The snow-white saber gave off a bright light; it was incredibly sharp.
