Chen Zong's figure stood straight and motionless in the cave that seemed to be in the depths of time and space. A majestic sword light filled the cave, as if it had enveloped his body, yet it also seemed to have bloomed from within his body.
The majestic sword light was withdrawing bit by bit, as if it was about to squeeze into his body and become one with it.
The Origin of Sword Principle!
It was the small piece of Origin of Sword Principle that Swordmaster Dong Ting had tried his best to cut off from the Great Path of the Sword.
To the Great Path of the Sword, this piece of Origin of Sword Principle was nothing. It might not even be one ten-thousandth of it. To Swordmaster Dong Ting, it was a supreme treasure that he could not fuse with himself. To Chen Zong, it was a supreme object that could only be seen from afar and could not be touched.
At this moment, under the overwhelming power of Swordmaster Dong Ting, this piece of Origin of Sword Principle was gradually fusing into Chen Zong's body.
It was indeed a rebirth. The pain was indescribable. Chen Zong could only say that all the pain he had suffered so far was nothing compared to this.
Compared to the power of the Origin of Sword Principle, Chen Zong was too small and insignificant.
As the Origin of Sword Principle was forcibly fusing into his body, the power of the Origin of Sword Principle was gradually transforming Chen Zong's body and even his soul.
This was not just a rebirth.
It was a brand new metamorphosis, a metamorphosis from the body to the soul.
On the other side, Swordmaster Dong Ting's old body exuded an aura of death and gradually lost his vitality.
He had been resisting the backlash of the Great Path of the Sword for many years. If he wanted to, he could continue resisting for many more years until one day he could not resist anymore and died.
But now, there was a better choice. Swordmaster Dong Ting decided to take a gamble. Of course, to Swordmaster Dong Ting, this was a gamble that he had a ninety percent chance of winning. Chen Zong had no way of resisting.
The backlash of the Great Path of the Sword was not only directed at the body, but also at the soul. It would not stop until the body and soul were both destroyed.
However, after many years of resistance, Swordmaster Dong Ting found a glimmer of hope. That was to give up the body, the soul, and most of everything. He used a way to deceive everyone and only left a wisp of his true spirit.
The true spirit was the core essence of the soul. It was the most essential existence, the essence that could only be condensed by a true expert.
If one's true spirit was not destroyed, one would be truly immortal. Even if the void collapsed, as long as the true spirit existed, one would not truly die.
In other words, to kill an expert who had condensed a true spirit, just destroying the body and soul wasn't enough. One had to destroy the true spirit as well. Only then would it be considered a true death.
Naturally, the true spirit would also be devoured by the Great Path of the Great Path of the Sword.
However, the Sword Master of the East Court had been fighting for many years, and he had long been prepared. He had disguised himself and deceived everyone. In the end, he had separated a bit of his true spirit and abandoned everything else, allowing the Great Dao of the Sword to destroy him.
Because as long as that bit of True Spirit existed, it could be reborn in another body.
Swordmaster did not to Dong Swordmaster Dong Swords. by Sto Sto be by Sto be to have it. to To be, to be able.
However, he did not do so because he could continue to resist the backlash of the Great Path of the Sword. It was also because he had not found a suitable candidate.
The more outstanding the candidate, the better. It would be best if the candidate could fuse with the Origin of the Sword.
It would be best if he could fuse with the Origin of the Sword when he was at the Demigod rank.
Of course, Swordmaster Dong Ting understood that it was an extravagant hope. He did not have the ability to do so back then.
However, he also thought that if he could fuse with the Origin of the Sword when he was at the Demigod rank, he would be able to forge sword bones, sword body, sword bloodline, and even his soul into a sword soul. That way, he would be favored by the Great Path of the Sword.
Swordmaster Dong Ting's idea was perfect.
This Origin of Sword Way was cut off from the Great Path of the Sword in the void. It had the same root as the Great Path of the Sword. If it was integrated, it would be tantamount to directly getting close to the Great Path of the Sword in the void. It would be like becoming a part of it, like its own son.
The Great Path of the Sword!
How shocking was that? This meant that his future cultivation would be smooth-sailing. Especially on the path of the sword, no one could compare to him.
The Great Path of the Sword's own son. Was there anything more awesome than that?
Yes, the Great Path's own son.
However, would it appear?
It was almost impossible.
When that time came, he would definitely be able to transcend.
The power of the Origin of the Way of the Sword was slowly guided by Swordmaster Dongting's power, fusing into Chen Zong's body bit by bit. It was a very, very slow process. It would take years or even decades to complete.
Although it would take a long time, if it was completed, the harvest would be extremely shocking.
Perhaps, with such talent, the power of his swordsmanship would increase by a few times or even ten times. At that time, it would not be an extravagant hope for him to fight against some Imminent Deity experts with his Demigod rank cultivation base.
The gap between the Demigod rank and the Imminent Deity realm was huge.
That was the gap between the Great Path and the Great Path. Swordmaster Dong Ting had lived for many years, but he had never heard of anyone in the Void who could fight against an Imminent Deity expert at the Demigod rank.
However, in a few years or decades, he might be able to do it.
Even though Swordmaster Dong Ting's temperament had been tempered for many years, he could not help but feel excited.
Guide!
At the same time, he guided the Origin of the Sword into Chen Zong's body, gradually changing his physique, bones, blood, and so on. It was a fundamental change.
At the same time, he fused his True Spirit into Chen Zong's soul.
As long as his True Spirit completely entered Chen Zong's soul, he would be able to control this body. At that time, he would be Swordmaster Dong Ting, and also Sword Son of Dong Ting.
In this way, the Sword Mountain of Dong Ting could still be passed down.
Swordmaster Dong Ting's idea was wonderful.
He was very glad that Chen Zong came. Otherwise, many years later, he would not be able to hold on and would have to find a decent person to borrow his body to be reborn. However, he was sure that no one would be as suitable as Chen Zong.
Gradually, the sharp pain seemed to disappear, but in fact, it did not disappear. Instead, it became numb.
Chen Zong could not resist. He could only "watch" as Swordmaster Dong Ting's True Spirit began to enter his soul. His consciousness began to become blurred, and he felt a sense of despair as if he had fallen into an abyss.
He could not resist. He was powerless. The gap between their levels was too big.
Even if he wanted to risk his life, he could not do it.
That feeling was extreme despair.
Heart Sword Intent?
It was useless!
World Dao Intent?
It was also useless.
All of his strength was too weak in front of a Sovereign Rank expert. He had no ability to resist at all.
Self-destruction of the soul?
Perish together!
This was the last counterattack that Chen Zong could think of.
However, was this enough to kill Swordmaster Dong Ting?
It was probably not enough.
In this case, he would add the Heart Sword Intent and World Dao Intent.
The power produced by the collapse of the two supreme Dao Intents and the self-destruction of the soul must be very strong.
In the last fight, he would die.
In an instant, Chen Zong detonated the Heart Sword Intent, World Dao Intent, and his soul.
"Don't even think about it!" Swordmaster Dong Ting was furious. He never thought that Chen Zong would use this last move.
If he succeeded in detonating the two supreme Dao Insights and soul, then even if his True Spirit remained intact, his body would definitely be mostly crippled. Even if he succeeded in fusing with the quintessence of the Sword Dao, it would leave behind regrets, and it would go against the perfection he sought.
The power descended in an instant and directly suppressed Chen Zong's Spirit Sea. The Heart Sword Intent, World Dao Intent, and Chen Zong's soul, which were about to explode, all froze. It was as if time and space were frozen, and they could no longer move.
At the same time, Swordmaster Dong Ting's original body began to collapse and dissipate.
There was no way out.
Swordmaster Dong Ting was also putting all his eggs in one basket.
There was a sudden change!
The Heart Sword Seal, which had been quietly staying in Chen Zong's Spirit Sea, was dim and lifeless. It was as if it had lost everything.
Chen Zong had never taken it away because it was the Heart Sword Seal that had changed him back then, allowing him to embark on the path of the sword. Although he had obtained some opportunities later on, they were not inferior to the Heart Sword Seal at all.
However, if it had not been for the changes brought about by the Heart Sword Seal, he would still be struggling in the small Eastern Continent. Perhaps he would have married and had children, and lived the life of an ordinary person. He might even have turned into a pile of dirt.
Therefore, to Chen Zong, the Heart Sword Seal had an extraordinary meaning. It could be said that without the Heart Sword Seal, he would not be where he was now.
But now, everything would be for naught.
The Heart Sword Seal, which had been quietly dim and lifeless, suddenly trembled. It was as if some kind of terrifying existence had suddenly awakened from a deep sleep.
An astonishing suction force suddenly erupted from the Heart Sword Seal. The suction force did not seem to be particularly strong, but it was extremely tenacious and astonishing. It was endless, like a whale sucking in water.
Suddenly, the Sword Dao Origin that had been continuously assimilating into Chen Zong's body was also affected. It turned into streams of water and entered the Spirit Sea, being absorbed by the Heart Sword Seal.
Absorb!
Absorb continuously!
The power of the Sword Dao Origin was constantly being absorbed by the Heart Sword Seal. The Heart Sword Seal seemed to have awakened. It trembled slightly and released rays of silver light.
It was as if an ancient god that had been sleeping for countless years had awakened.
This change caused Swordmaster Dong Ting to panic.
"No … No … No …"
Swordmaster Dong Ting roared and used all his strength to block it. However, he realized that he could not block it. His strength was no longer at the level of his peak.
"… Stop … Stop …"
He was not very sure what would happen after the Sword Dao Origin was absorbed. However, the feeling in his Real Spirit told him that it would not do him any good. It might even cause him harm. A feeling of catastrophe enveloped him.
Fear!
Fear!
It poured out of him like a torrential flood. It was the same feeling as when he had been devoured by the Great Way of the Sword.
"No … Stop … I beg you … Stop …"
