Break!
Break!
Break!
Inside the cave, a shocking sword chime reverberated and turned into waves of sound waves that surged out of Chen Zong's body like a tsunami before crashing into the surrounding cave walls.
Fortunately, the surrounding cave walls had been reinforced by Chen Zong's array formation. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to withstand the impact and might have collapsed, burying Chen Zong in the cave. It wouldn't have been fatal, but it would have affected his cultivation.
Another sword strike that seemed to condense a lifetime's worth of power pierced, tore, and shattered.
Under the repeated attacks of Chen Zong's lifetime of power, the barrier that was like a natural moat was finally cracked open. The cracks continued to expand, and when the last sword was unleashed, it seemed to be burning.
Chen Zong could vaguely hear the earth-shattering sound of drums ringing in his ears. It was as vast and mighty as divine thunder, shaking him so much that he almost lost consciousness.
At the same time, the barrier between the mid-level of the Yuan Underworld Stage and the high-level of the Yuan Underworld Stage was completely broken.
The sword-light pierced through like a hot knife through butter and once again transformed into the Taichu Sword Origin, his cultivation base also broke through to the high-level of the Yuan Underworld Stage. This made Chen Zong feel as though he had broken through a cage and opened up a wider world.
As the Taichu Sword Origin continued to move, it began to purify itself and continuously absorbed the surrounding Yuan Qi, becoming even more majestic.
After a few days and nights, Chen Zong finally stopped circulating the Taichu Sword Origin Technique. The Taichu Sword Origin Technique that had been constantly moving around also gradually quieted down.
His cultivation base had already broken through and stabilized at the high-level of the Yuan Underworld Stage. However, this was only the initial stage. Because he had forcefully broken through, he still needed to spend a lot of time and energy to further consolidate it and make up for the flaws left behind by the forceful breakthrough. Only then could he continue to improve and reach the perfected Yuan Underworld Stage.
"My cultivation base has broken through. Now, I can continue to comprehend the Heart Sword Path and improve my Sword Path Domain." Chen Zong's eyes were as bright as lightning.
Consolidating and making up for one's cultivation base was not something that could be done overnight. He could not rush it.
With the breakthrough in his cultivation, Chen Zong discovered that the shackles had disappeared when he tried to comprehend the mysteries of the Heart Sword Dao. He could continue to comprehend even more mysteries, which meant that his Sword Dao Domain could continue to improve.
However, as his Sword Principle Domain continued to improve, Chen Zong found that he had encountered a bottleneck again.
9,999 meters!
When his Sword Dao domain reached 9,999 meters, it was stuck. No matter how hard he tried to comprehend it, he couldn't break through.
Chen Zong felt that this wasn't the upper limit of his Yuan Underworld cultivation. However, he was still unable to break through. Even though Chen Zong had tried to forcefully break through, it had been to no avail.
"The 10,000 meter domain has always been a dividing line," Demonheart said solemnly.
Generally speaking, only cultivators in the Transcendent Plane could cultivate their Great Path domain to 10,000 meters.
However, 10,000 meters was equivalent to a symbol. Whether one's Great Path domain could reach 10,000 meters or not was a distinction between high and low.
In terms of cultivation base, a Great Path domain below 10,000 meters was like a rudimentary level. Reaching 10,000 meters was equivalent to stepping into the initial level.
"You need an opportunity," Demonheart said. "It's best to find an external force to stimulate it."
Otherwise, it would probably take a lot of time to comprehend it on his own. Although Demonheart did not say this, Chen Zong understood it very well.
After removing the array formation and other things, Chen Zong left the place where he had been cultivating in seclusion for a few months. As for Yu Nianxin, Chen Zong wasn't worried. She had used the Nine Heavenly Rings to transmit a message to him. She had said that her cultivation base had reached the limit of the Dao Manipulation Realm and that the first awakening of her bloodline had reached a critical moment. She was preparing to enter deep seclusion to completely awaken her bloodline and break through to the Yuan Underworld Plane.
Yu Nianxin didn't know how long this seclusion would take. Therefore, she first told Chen Zong so that he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to contact her.
His Sword Dao domain had reached 9,999 meters. He needed to break through the shackles and reach an even higher level.
He could use the stimulation of external forces to find an opportunity. He could find some places left behind by Sword Dao cultivators to observe and comprehend and inspire himself.
Chen Zong entered a huge city to collect information.
Ice Sacred Planet was very big and had a variety of forces. There were also forces that specialized in collecting and selling information. He only needed to pay a small price to buy a lot of information. It was much more convenient than slowly investigating by himself.
Now, Chen Zong's accumulation of wealth was something that many Transcendent Planes couldn't compare to. This little bit of wealth was nothing at all.
"The Ice Sword Desperate Domain is the place where Ice Sword Venerable used to live. It is shrouded in Ice Sword Qi all year round. Under its influence, it has turned into a Sword Domain, freezing all life and keeping people away." Chen Zong looked at the information he had bought and decided to go to the Ice Sword Desperate Domain.
Ice Sword Master was an expert at the Dao Master level. He was not a very powerful Dao Master, but he was a Dao Master after all. The Ice Sword Desperate Domain that he left behind was also extraordinary and had existed for hundreds of years.
But according to the information, the Ice Sword Desperate Domain was constantly shrinking. It was estimated that in about a hundred years, it would really dissipate. At that time, the Ice Sword Desperate Domain would also become a thing of the past.
After all, without the support, it couldn't withstand the erosion of time and would eventually dissipate.
Moreover, many people who practiced swordsmanship would go to the Ice Sword Desperate Domain to observe and comprehend it, which indirectly accelerated the consumption of the power of the Ice Sword Desperate Domain and shortened its existence time.
The Void was so vast that no one knew how many predecessors and masters had left behind their traces. When those traces existed, they could inspire practitioners, but they would eventually disappear.
However, when something disappeared, something new would appear. Just like life and death, the new and the old would replace each other.
As long as there were practitioners in the Void, the traces left by predecessors would always be there.
After reading the information, Chen Zong decided to go to the Ice Sword Desperate Domain. It was the closest place, and also one of the few secret places left by predecessors that had a Sword Principle Domain.
He immediately left the city and flew to the valley where the Ice Sword Desperate Domain was located.
The temperature in the air was getting lower and lower, and the chill was getting deeper and deeper. The surroundings were filled with floating frost fragments.
But this didn't affect Chen Zong at all.
Finally, Chen Zong arrived at a snow-covered valley. The entire valley was shrouded in snow, and the chill it emitted was extremely shocking.
The deeper he went, the thicker the snow became and gradually transitioned to ice.
As he went deeper, Chen Zong began to see some people who seemed to be doing something.
This was where the Ice Sword Desperate Domain was located.
At first glance, Chen Zong saw a giant sword. It was an ice sword that was 100 meters tall. It stood on the icy ground, but it was not inserted into the ground. Instead, it stood up from the icy ground as if it had grown out of it.
The Ice Sword Absolute Domain was emitted from the huge ice sword. It covered an area of ten thousand meters in radius.
This Sword Principle Domain was the last one left by the Ice Sword Venerable. It would dissipate in 100 years.
Within the 10,000-meter-wide Sword Principle domain, there were dozens of people around the huge ice sword. Some were sitting cross-legged, some were standing like swords, and some were slowly dancing with their swords. Each of them was comprehending the mysteries in their own way.
As soon as Chen Zong stepped into the Ice Sword Domain, he immediately felt suppressed. This kind of suppression belonged to any Domain. It was a kind of suppressive force that would suppress the opponent's strength, speed, cultivation power, and even Great Path power to a lower level and reduce his combat strength.
The stronger the Great Path Domain, the more obvious the suppression.
The Ice Sword Domain of 10,000 meters had obviously reached the second level of the Great Path Domain. Its suppressive force was naturally stronger than the first level of the Great Path Domain below 10,000 meters.
No matter what Great Path it was, whether the Great Path itself was strong or weak, when it was in the same range, its suppressive force was basically the same. This was because it was only a kind of power that came with the Great Path Domain. It was not the real power.
However, the first level of the Great Path Domain only had the most ordinary suppressive force. Only when it reached the second level would the true power of the Great Path Domain begin to show.
For example, the second level of the Ice Sword Domain was icy cold. It was extremely cold, colder than any other place.
Here, Chen Zong not only felt that part of his strength was suppressed, but he also felt an astonishing icy aura. It was constantly entering his body from all directions. There was no way to stop it at all. He could only rely on his own strength to resist it. Unknowingly, it would consume more strength.
Chen Zong even felt that even his Primordial Spirit seemed to be affected. His speed of thinking was also weakened.
It felt as if his brain was sluggish because of the extreme cold.
Moreover, this kind of coldness made even Chen Zong, who had a strong body, feel uncomfortable, let alone others.
However, Chen Zong was not afraid. Instead, he was looking forward to it.
He wondered what kind of power his Sword Tao Domain would have after breaking through to the second level.
Chen Zong abandoned all distracting thoughts and slowly approached the giant ice sword. The closer he got, the stronger the chill and the stronger the invasion. Therefore, Chen Zong stopped about 5,000 meters away. This was the limit he could reach at the moment.
He began to comprehend!
Chen Zong directly activated the Four Essences of Mind. Together with his comprehension, he carefully felt and captured the aura fluctuations of the Ice Sword Domain. He felt it more clearly, combined them, and verified them. The effect of his comprehension was several times better than when he focused on comprehending.
While he was comprehending, the power contained in the giant ice sword was decreasing at an imperceptible speed. When the power contained in it decreased to the extreme and was completely consumed, the Ice Sword Domain would disappear. At the same time, the Ice Sword Domain would also disappear.
The Ice Sword Domain emitted by the giant sword was like a kind of nutrient. It was constantly absorbed and became nutrients for the growth of others.
From time to time, other Sword Practitioners from the outside world would step into the valley and enter the Ice Sword Domain again to comprehend the mystery and improve their Sword Tao.
There were also Sword Practitioners who could not bear the power of the Ice Sword Domain and had to withdraw from the Sword Domain to rest. After they recovered, they would enter again and repeat the cycle.
