This time, the Sword Competition lasted for a full 10 years before it ended.
When the Void Sword Master's voice stopped, he announced the end of this sword conference.
"Everyone here is a sword cultivator. I am just one step ahead. I hope that today's sword conference will benefit everyone and make the sword path in the void more prosperous. I also hope that one day, there will be someone who can sit down with me to discuss the sword." The Void Sword Master said in the end. After he finished speaking, he turned into a beam of sword light that shot into the sky. In the next moment, the Void Sword Master disappeared.
However, the sword altar was still there and so was the sword pressure.
Chen Zong did not leave immediately. Many sword cultivators were also sitting there, still reminiscing.
The environment here was very suitable. Moreover, the sword conference had just ended and the aftertaste was still there.
While the aftertaste was still there, they naturally had to seize the opportunity to continue comprehending and consolidate their gains from this sword conference. The effect was the best. If they left just like that, they might lose some of their inspiration.
In the blink of an eye, another few months passed. Finally, the sword pressure weakened and slowly disappeared. The sword cultivators also woke up one after another and left the sword altar one after another.
"What a pity. Just a little bit more and my sword path would have been able to rise to the next level." Some people felt that it was a pity, but their words actually contained a lot of excitement.
They had benefited a lot from this sword conference and saved decades or even centuries of comprehension.
Of course, different Sword Cultivators had different talents and different foundations. Therefore, the same hundred years of gains would have different levels, and there would be differences in quality.
Just based on cultivation realm alone, the gains of a Divine Power realm sword cultivator from the sword conference were better than most Yuanming realm cultivators and even better than most Dao Manipulation realm cultivators.
"Little friend Chen Zong, how are your gains?" The Divine Power realm sword cultivator, Thousand-Mile Sword Lord Lang Qianli, seemed to pay a lot of attention to Chen Zong. After he finished comprehending, he looked at Chen Zong and asked.
"I have gained a lot," Chen Zong said sincerely.
That was indeed the case.
The sword conference of the Void Sword Master had made Chen Zong recall his past experiences and why he had practiced the sword. He felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. The sword.
Proficiency in the sword. Sincerity in the sword.
It could be said that Chen Zong gained the most out of all of them.
This was because Chen Zong had an extremely solid foundation in swordsmanship, an extremely high comprehension ability, and the memory of Sword Master Dongting. All of these factors made him superior to many others.
If he really wanted to find someone who could compare to him in this aspect, it would be extremely difficult. Perhaps there was such a person, but they might not be here. They might already be a senior, or they might not have been born yet, or they might exist in a distant place.
Here, even the divine-tier sword cultivator, Lang Qianli, who was known as the Thousand-Mile Sword Monarch, could not compare to Chen Zong.
Sword Master Ji Kong's sparring session was like a key that opened up a treasure trove. It allowed Sword Master Dong Ting's comprehension of the sword and the Way of the Sword to constantly surge forth.
Although Sword Master Dong Ting's experience was not as good as Sword Master Ji Kong's, he had already walked out his own path in the Way of the Sword. He was also a sword cultivator in the Sovereign Realm.
Different ideas collided and shattered in Chen Zong's mind, leaving behind their essence. They merged into Chen Zong's idea of the Way of the Sword and became his nutrients. He slowly absorbed them, causing his own idea of the Way of the Sword to sprout like a seed and slowly grow.
Now, although the seed of his idea of the Way of the Sword had just sprouted, it had already displayed astonishing tenacity and stamina.
Chen Zong firmly believed that one day, he would definitely surpass Sword Master Dong Ting and even Sword Master Ji Kong.
This was because he was unique. This was confidence that came from the deepest part of his heart.
Even so, Chen Zong was confident, but he would not be arrogant. He would not be arrogant and think that he was unique in his heart.
Hence, Chen Zong naturally would not coldly reject Lang Qianli's obvious intention of befriending him.
"Spar?" Lang Qianli smiled and issued an invitation, which surprised the other sword cultivators.
A divine-tier sword cultivator, and a famous one at that, had actually invited a Dao Control Realm sword cultivator of unknown origins to a sparring match.
It was simply unbelievable.
One had to know that the gap between the Dao Manipulation realm and the Divine Ability realm was simply too great. They were simply on two different levels.
The well-dressed young man frowned, looking very dissatisfied, as if he felt that his limelight had been stolen.
As for the Yuanming realm sword cultivator, he glanced at Chen Zong and then at Lang Qianli. He did not say anything and immediately left.
"Hmph." The well-dressed young man snorted coldly. After sweeping his gaze over Chen Zong, he also left.
"I'm older than you, so I'll call you Brother Chen." Lang Qianli smiled. "You can directly call me by my name."
"Brother Qianli." Chen Zong smiled. Of course, he would not be so arrogant as to directly call him by his name. That would be disrespectful.
The Way of the Sword was naturally in Lang Qianli's void flying boat.
The Way of the Sword lasted for a month.
Lang Qianli shared his understanding of the sword and the Way of the Sword, explaining its profoundness. Chen Zong did the same.
Lang Qianli felt that Chen Zong was quite congenial and had issued an invitation out of curiosity. However, he had never imagined that Chen Zong's understanding of the Way of the Sword would be so astonishing that it had actually given him quite a bit of insight.
That was a collision of inspiration and ideas, which stirred up invisible sparks.
Lang Qianli had gained quite a bit, and so had Chen Zong.
A Divine Ability realm sword cultivator who could ascend to the first level of the Sword Altar already had an outstanding accumulation of knowledge of the Way of the Sword.
During the Way of the Way of the Sword, Chen Zong also learned about the path that Lang Qianli had taken.
Similar to the Zenith Sword Master, Lang Qianli had broken all techniques with a single sword.
Of course, compared to the Zenith Sword Master, Lang Qianli's technique was still very inexperienced. However, he had walked ahead of Chen Zong.
For a month, other than the Way of the Sword, the two would also drink and chat. Therefore, Lang Qianli, a wandering cultivator, knew about Chen Zong's identity.
A true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace, and a true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace.
As a Divine Ability realm sword cultivator from the Black and White World, Lang Qianli had some understanding of the Will Heavenly Palace. At least, he knew that the true disciples of the Five Palaces were different from ordinary true disciples.
"Back then, I almost entered the Will Heavenly Palace." Lang Qianli laughed. As a cultivator from the Central Void, almost all of them yearned to enter the Will Heavenly Palace.
However, it was too difficult to become a true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace.
Lang Qianli had also attempted the Will of Heart a few times, but he had failed. In the end, he had given up.
It was not that only by becoming a disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace could one cultivate to a very high level and become very powerful. Outside of the Will Heavenly Palace, there were many cultivators who were stronger than the disciples of the Will Heavenly Palace.
For example, Lang Qianli was at the Divine Ability realm, and his battle strength was shocking. There were very few Divine Ability realm cultivators in the Will Heavenly Palace who could defeat him.
After the Way of the Sword, Chen Zong also bid farewell to Lang Qianli. He boarded the Voidwalker and returned to the Will Heavenly Palace.
"Little brother Chen is not ordinary. Perhaps it won't be long before his name shakes the entire Void." Lang Qianli stared at the Voidwalker and sighed. There was no jealousy, only deep admiration.
This was a peerless talent of the younger generation. He was currently blossoming with his own brilliance. Lang Qianli had never seen such a dazzling junior before.
Inside the Voidwalker, Chen Zong was cultivating.
In the ten years since the Void Swordmaster started the Way of the Sword, Chen Zong had gained a lot.
Not only did his accumulation of Sword Dao improve, but he also understood the mysteries of One Sword to Break All Laws and One Sword to Create a World. He had begun to walk on these two paths. In addition, his cultivation base had increased.
His Qi cultivation base had reached the peak of the Fourth Transformation of the Dao Manipulation realm. He was only one step away from the Fifth Transformation.
As for his Body Refinement cultivation base, he had also reached the peak of the Third Transformation due to the continuous battle and cultivation. Now, his enlightenment in the past ten years, especially the Sect Returning Swords, had actually affected the Great Dao of the World, causing his Body Refinement cultivation base to break through and reach the Fourth Transformation.
Although in the past ten years, his Body Refinement cultivation base was still a little slower than his Qi Cultivation base, but the difference was not too great. Now, he had reached the late stage of the Fourth Transformation Divine Body realm, which was a small level away from the Fourth Transformation of the Dao Manipulation realm.
"With my current strength, I should be able to have a Nine-Star battle strength." On the Voidwalker, Chen Zong thought to himself.
Although he was not very sure, he had a feeling in his heart that it was not far from the mark.
However, Chen Zong did not know how strong the Ultimate Realm was.
That was a level that surpassed the limit.
Eldest Senior Brother Luo Beichuan only had the Ultimate Realm's Ten-Star battle strength when he was at the Seventh Transformation of the Dao Manipulation realm.
And now, Eldest Senior Brother Luo Beichuan was the strongest fighter in the Divine Ability realm in the Will Heavenly Palace. Even in the entire Void, he was at the top level.
Then what about himself?
What level of cultivation base should he be at to have the Ultimate Realm's combat strength?
Comparison was everyone's nature and instinct, especially when compared with those who were outstanding. Even the most indifferent person would subconsciously have such thoughts.
The only difference was in strength.
Chen Zong was a human, so naturally, he was not an exception.
However, there was no answer at the moment.
However, he would know everything when he returned to the Will Heavenly Palace and raised his cultivation base.
Then, he would start to break through his cultivation base now.
He had gained a lot in the ten years of the Sword Competition. His cultivation base had reached the peak of the Fourth Transformation of the Dao Manipulation realm in one go. He was only a sliver away from the Fifth Transformation, as if he could break through at any time.
Chen Zong wanted to see if he could successfully break through to the Fifth Transformation before returning to the Will Heavenly Palace.
Unfortunately, when Chen Zong returned to the Will Heavenly Palace, his cultivation still had not broken through. He was still at the peak of the Fourth Transformation, as if he could break through at any time but lacked something.
Since that was the case, Chen Zong did not force it. Under normal circumstances, breaking through naturally was the best because it represented a solid foundation.
Forcing a breakthrough was only a last resort. It would affect one's foundation and require more time and effort to make up for it.
Then, he would go challenge the Star Battle Pagoda now.
That was the best way to test his strength.
Stepping into the first floor of the Star Battle Pagoda, Chen Zong used his body refinement strength. However, this time, Chen Zong did not use any martial arts like the Sky Dou Luminous Star Fist. Instead, he drew his sword.
