Wanren Sect, Sky-sundering Sword Palace.
Sky-sundering Sword Emperor sat on the main seat. Below him, there were four figures standing with their bodies bowed. The atmosphere was extremely bleak. Anger and killing intent were faintly spreading.
"Your junior brother is dead." Sky-sundering Sword Emperor glanced at the four people.
"Who killed him?" The middle-aged man standing on the far right suddenly exploded with a terrifying murderous intent. An astonishing sword will instantly soared into the sky, shattering the vacuum. His aura was incomparably tyrannical.
King Realm!
He was a top-notch Sword King level expert.
The other three also released shocking energy fluctuations and killing intent. Their faces were filled with killing intent.
Marquis Tian Hen was Sky-sundering Sword Emperor's last disciple. What did it mean to be a last disciple?
He was the last disciple. After that, Sky-sundering Sword Emperor wouldn't take in any more disciples.
Therefore, taking in a last disciple was a very cautious thing. There were all kinds of tests.
Among Sky-sundering Sword Emperor's five disciples, Marquis Tian Hen's last disciple was the most talented. Sky-sundering Sword Emperor valued him the most. He was also the one with the most hope to break through to the Sword Emperor Realm in the future.
After all, even his first disciple was only a King Realm expert. He couldn't break through to the Emperor Realm.
The difference between a King Realm expert and an Emperor Realm expert was a difference in nature. It was even greater than the difference between the fourth and fifth level.
It could be said that the difference between the fifth and sixth level was as obvious as the difference between the earth and the sky.
Now, a genius who had the potential to break through to the Emperor Realm had died before he could mature. They would naturally feel heartbroken.
"It's the disciple of the Trade Wind Tower, Chen Zong." Sky-sundering Sword Emperor's voice was extremely cold. "I took action. However, he might have some life-saving trump card. Only his Divine Intent was severely injured. Now, he's being escorted back to the Trade Wind Tower by the Master of the Trade Wind Tower. You have to keep an eye on him. If there's a chance, kill him and avenge your junior brother."
"Yes, Master."
"If there's a chance, he's dead."
…
Chen Zong was being carried back to the Trade Wind Tower by the Master of the Trade Wind Tower.
His torn Divine Intent hadn't recovered yet. Although the pain was lessening, it was still intense. Chen Zong's face was pale. He couldn't concentrate.
This was because the moment he tried to concentrate, the pain would intensify.
Chen Zong couldn't do anything about it. This was the result of his Divine Will being damaged. But when he thought about it, it was fortunate that the mysterious black mark had shown its power. Otherwise, not only would his Divine Will be damaged, but his Spiritual Soul would also be torn apart. If he tried to explain himself, he might even be dead.
After all, it was a great fortune amidst misfortune.
The damage to the Divine Will was less severe than the damage to the Divine Soul, so the chances of recovery were higher.
For example, right now, Chen Zong could feel strands of power emanating from the black mark, repairing his damaged Divine Decree.
He just didn't know how long it would take.
After returning to the guild, Chen Zong made a great contribution due to his mastery of the Boulder Realm's origin. He was rewarded by the guild as well as some pills to restore the Divine Intent.
However, this kind of pill was relatively rare. After all, this kind of divine medicine was rare to begin with, and the difficulty of refining it was even greater. Therefore, the finished product was even rarer.
A hundred pills!
Chen Zong received a hundred Phaseless Golden Divine Pills. They were pills that directly targeted the Divine Intent. Their main function was to restore the depleted Divine Intent. Their secondary function was to repair the damage done to the Divine Intent. They also had an extremely slight effect of strengthening the Divine Intent.
"In this period of time, you should focus on restoring your Divine Intent," the guild master said to Chen Zong, giving him great encouragement.
After all, before the Divine Intent was restored, it wasn't good for cultivation.
"Yes," Chen Zong replied, then returned to his pavilion with the hundred Phaseless Golden Divine Pills.
He took out a Phaseless Golden Divine Pill. This pill was light gold in color, and its light was faintly discernible. It was very mysterious.
As soon as the pill entered Chen Zong's mouth, it melted. When he swallowed it, it immediately turned into a clear Qi. It carried traces of an icy aura as it quickly spread into Chen Zong's mind, automatically extending toward the torn Divine Intent.
In an instant, a strange change occurred. As soon as the clear air from the Phaseless Golden Divine Pill came into contact with Chen Zong's damaged Divine Intent, the traces of insignificant cool air that had originally spread out from the black mark directly merged with it. The combination of the two directly increased the efficiency of the healing by tenfold.
The strong cool air spread, causing Chen Zong to feel that the sharp pain in his mind had been reduced by several times. A long-awaited feeling of comfort suddenly spread out.
Restore!
Accelerate the recovery!
Originally, under normal circumstances, the hundred Phaseless Golden Divine Pills were actually unable to restore Chen Zong's Divine Intent to its original state. They could only alleviate the pain and restore a part of it. The rest would have to depend on Chen Zong's own efforts.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zong had the help of the black mark. Moreover, the effect of the Phaseless Golden Divine Pill had been increased tenfold. As a result, the possibility of recovery was even greater.
Not long after, the clear air from the Phaseless Golden Divine Pill was completely consumed. Chen Zong felt that the cool air had disappeared, and the pain intensified again. However, compared to before, it was much less painful.
Every day, Chen Zong stayed in his pavilion to restore his Divine Intent. Because his Divine Intent had not been restored, he could not comprehend it. However, this did not hinder Chen Zong from practicing swordsmanship.
After all, practicing swordsmanship could be done without using his brain. He could use his body's instincts to wield the sword.
What Chen Zong did not know was that under this almost brainless practice of swordsmanship, he had unknowingly entered a strange state. Intentionally or unintentionally, this state caused his swordsmanship to improve little by little.
Now, in addition to his own Heart Swordsmanship and World Swordsmanship, Chen Zong had mastered more than a dozen Great Swordsmanship Swordsmanship. Although the essence of these Great Swordsmanship Swordsmanship was extracted bit by bit and integrated into his own two Great Swordsmanship Swordsmanship, it did not mean that Chen Zong could not practice them.
In fact, in addition to the two superb Great Swordsmanship Swordsmanship, Chen Zong could practice all the other Great Swordsmanship Swordsmanship.
The Phaseless Golden Divine Pill could not be taken continuously. He could only take one pill a day. A hundred pills would take a hundred days.
A hundred days was actually not a long time. However, for top geniuses, a hundred days was not a short time, especially those with outstanding talent. They were very likely to have a significant improvement in their strength within a hundred days.
However, Chen Zong did not encounter any mockery or difficulties. After all, it was only his Divine Intent that was damaged, not his Spiritual Soul.
If his Spiritual Soul was damaged, it would take many years for him to recover. It might even be difficult to recover. It would directly affect his own potential, which was basically equivalent to being half-crippled.
However, if his Divine Intent was damaged, even without external help, he could slowly recover. It would just take some time.
Generally speaking, without external help, it would take about three to five years.
Of course, three to five years was enough for the top geniuses to widen the gap. However, widening the gap did not mean that they would definitely surpass him. Moreover, Chen Zong's strength was already very strong. Once his Divine Intent recovered, he would definitely continue to improve.
In that case, what ability did they have to mock him?
Time flew. Chen Zong had been staying in the Trade Wind Restaurant.
Firstly, his Divine Intent was damaged and was in the process of recovery.
Secondly, Chen Zong also knew that he had provoked a strong enemy by killing Marquis Tian Hen. No, it might not be a strong enemy. If he left the Trade Wind Restaurant's territory now, he would most likely be attacked.
That kind of attack was most likely not by a third realm cultivator. It might be a fourth or fifth realm cultivator. It might even be the Sky Splitter Sword Sovereign himself.
The Sky Splitter Sword Sovereign had already attacked outside the Giant Rock World. If it was not for the mysterious black mark that saved him and his prompt decision to retreat into the Giant Rock World, coupled with the fact that the other emperors were worried that the Giant Rock World would be destroyed and the timely arrival of the Trade Wind Restaurant's Master, he would probably have lost his life then.
The most important thing now was to obediently increase his strength.
Time passed slowly. Day after day passed. Chen Zong's Divine Intent was also gradually recovering. However, because his Divine Intent had not fully recovered, Chen Zong was not suitable to fight. Therefore, he did not challenge the Divine General Ranking.
However, although Chen Zong did not challenge anyone, the others did.
In particular, there was a battle that attracted the most attention. Before the battle started, thousands of experts on the Divine General Ranking had entered the Divine General Ranking Realm to wait.
Because this battle was between the seventh ranked expert on the Divine General Ranking Realm and the third ranked expert.
A battle between the top ten experts on the Divine General Ranking Realm was very rare. Chen Zong was greatly moved and shocked when he witnessed the battle with his own eyes.
Strong!
Whether it was the seventh or the third ranked expert, they were both very strong and very terrifying.
They had both reached the Divine Image Realm. Not only that, they also had the Innate Saint Body.
The Innate Saint Body was divided into four levels.
The first level was the Spiritual Body.
The second level was the Imperial Body.
The third level was the Saint Body.
The fourth level was the Divine Body.
Among them, the Innate Spiritual Body was the most common. The Innate King Body was rarer. As for the Innate Saint Body, it was extremely rare. It was difficult to find many in the entire universe.
As for the Innate Divine Body, it was even rarer.
The Innate King Body was much stronger than the Innate Spiritual Body. The Innate Saint Body was even stronger than the Innate King Body.
As for the Innate Divine Body, it was much stronger than the Innate Saint Body.
The battle between the two Innate Saint Bodies was very terrifying. That kind of power shocked Chen Zong. Chen Zong was completely sure that he could not withstand even one move in front of them.
It was simply shocking that there were experts at such a level among the Third Realms.
Of course, Chen Zong also saw that the Great Path Unique Techniques they used were at the Super Star-level at best. They did not exceed this level, but under the enhancement of their Innate Saint Bodies, their power could be said to be extremely terrifying.
Chen Zong realized that although his current strength was not weak, it was still not strong enough.
Compared to the top ten experts on the Divine General Ranking Realm, he was really weak.
Sure enough, those at the top of the Divine General Ranking Realm were all monsters. If the seventh and third ranked experts were so amazing, then what about the second and first ranked experts?
Although this shocked Chen Zong, it did not make Chen Zong feel depressed. On the contrary, it further encouraged Chen Zong.
Improve!
He had to continue improving.
In the blink of an eye, 100 days had passed. His Divine Will had also completely recovered with the help of 100 Phaseless Golden Divine Pills and the aura of the black mark. Not only did it recover, but it also became more resilient and ushered in a transformation.
