After the battle, the array masters were once again called over. Large amounts of precious materials were also transported from various places to build a great array that would seal off the Door of the Gods and Demons.
No matter how it was built, it could only block a few attacks from Divine Ancestors at most. Even if the Gods and Demons used special methods to condense fiendish qi demon gods, the damage to the array would be more obvious and could break it. But no matter what, it could still hold on for a period of time.
In addition to the array sealing off the Door of the Gods and Demons, there was also a need for experts to stand guard here. It was most suitable for experts to cooperate with the array.
The first time, it was guarded by a Sword Saint and four Secondary Saints.
The second time, it was guarded by a Great Sword Saint and three Sword Saints.
This was the third time, it was guarded by a Sword Master and two Great Saints. This Sword Master was one of the top three in the Ancient Mystic World, the number one sword cultivator, the Eternal Sword Master. Ordinary Sword Masters and Divine Ancestors could not compare to him.
Even if the Space God Lord came, he would not be able to break the array in a short time and allow the Gods and Demons World to invade again. After all, the Eternal Sword Master was so strong that he could contend against the Space God Lord.
As long as the Eternal Sword Master stood guard here, there would be at least one Sword Master level expert from the Ten Thousand Sword Ancient Domain who could rush over as quickly as possible. No, with the importance of the Gods and Demons World now, at least two Sword Master level experts could come over as reinforcements in a short time. Such a lineup was enough to withstand the Gods and Demons World's attack.
Moreover, Tai Xuan would also provide reinforcements in the shortest time possible.
After the battle, Chen Zong did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed behind.
Why did Chen Zong stay behind?
It was very simple. He wanted to consult the Eternal Sword Master on the Way of the Sword.
The Eternal Sword Master's Way of the Sword was truly unfathomable. Chen Zong was extremely shocked. It had completely surpassed his current self. Chen Zong was not belittling himself. It was the truth.
In terms of time spent cultivating the Way of the Sword, he was far behind the Eternal Sword Master. Moreover, the Eternal Sword Master himself was a genius of the Way of the Sword. Otherwise, he would not have been able to cultivate to his current level.
Such a senior expert, a pioneer on the path of the sword, had far surpassed him. He was worthy of him asking for advice, even as a junior sword cultivator.
Faced with Chen Zong's request for guidance, the Eternal Sword Sovereign was very welcoming and did not put on airs at all.
But did the Eternal Sword Master really not put on airs at all?
He was the Eternal Sword Master, the number one master of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, the number one master of the Ten Thousand Swords Ancient Domain, the number one sword cultivator of the Ancient Profound World, and the number three master of the Ancient Profound World's Land Region. Such an existence was so high and mighty that it was difficult to even meet him, let alone ask him for advice.
Even if they could see it, they wouldn't be able to ask for guidance. Not just anyone could enter the eyes of an existence like the Eternal Sword Master and make him look directly at them.
But Chen Zong could.
Chen Zong had single-handedly turned the tide and even killed a Divine Lord. Even if the Divine Lord was weakened because he had used all his strength to cast the Divine Technique, he was still a Divine Lord. He was not someone a Great Sage could kill, but Chen Zong had done it. This scene made the Eternal Sword Master think highly of Chen Zong.
Of course, the Eternal Sword Master was very willing to come in contact with such a genius of the Way of the Sword and guide him, especially when the God and Demon World was eyeing them covetously. An additional master was an additional layer of protection.
Yu Nianxin was Chen Zong's Dao Companion, so she naturally stayed behind and was fortunate enough to listen.
Although her foundation in the Way of the Sword was not enough to understand the exchange between Chen Zong and the Eternal Sword Master, she could listen to some of it and leave an impression so that she could comprehend it well.
The Eternal Sword Master didn't hold back at all when talking to Chen Zong. He kept talking about his understanding of the Way of the Sword, and Chen Zong was like a dry sponge, constantly absorbing and enriching himself.
Although there was a clear gap between himself and the Eternal Sword Master in terms of realm, Chen Zong's foundation in the Way of the Sword was extremely solid. He walked the path of the All Swords, which was broad and profound. As a result, Chen Zong could understand the Sword Master's understanding of the Way of the Sword. Even if he couldn't understand it immediately, he could remember and comprehend it later.
Chen Zong's excellent performance made the Eternal Sword Master even more satisfied. Moreover, Chen Zong's research and understanding of the Way of the Sword was also an eye-opener for the Eternal Sword Master. He felt touched.
After cultivating to the level of the Ancient Sword Master, it was actually very difficult to advance any further. It was equivalent to walking to the end. If one wanted to advance further, they would need hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years as a foundation. Only then would it be possible to slowly comprehend it.
But now, when he was talking to Chen Zong about the Way of the Sword, some of Chen Zong's insights had actually touched the Sword Master. He felt like he had been in seclusion for thousands of years. This made the Sword Master value Chen Zong even more.
"I have experienced a hundred thousand years. Using the Sword Technique of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain as a foundation and combining it with my own Way of the Sword, I created a Way of the Sword that is most suitable for me. I named it Way of the Sword." The Sword Master's eyes were deep and reserved, as if they were filled with endless vicissitudes of life. His voice had an indescribable majestic aura, as if it came from an ancient time and space.
With that, the Sword Master immediately stood up and unsheathed his sword. He demonstrated the Way of the Sword in front of Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin.
This sword technique was the essence of the Ancient Sword Master's lifetime of sword techniques. In terms of level, it was not inferior to a supreme secret technique like the Stellar Sword Palace's Prodigious Stellar Thousand Layers Sword Technique. Especially when it was performed by the Ancient Sword Master, it was even more terrifying.
This Way of the Sword was regarded as a supreme Way of the Sword. It would not be easily passed down. But now, the Sword Master had directly imparted it to Chen Zong. Even Yu Nianxin was lucky enough to witness it.
How broad-minded!
The Sword Master demonstrated the Way of the Sword without using any cultivation or Sword Intent. It was just a very pure Way of the Sword. Only a direct and pure Way of the Sword could better demonstrate the profoundness of the Way of the Sword, allowing Chen Zong to see it more clearly.
Regarding this, Chen Zong hid his gratitude deep in his heart.
As the Sword Master demonstrated the Way of the Sword, the sword light returned to its original simplicity, as if it had descended from an ancient time and space. It brought with it an indescribable and endless vicissitudes of life. The sword light was like a picture scroll, demonstrating the changes of dynasties, the various forms of life, and the cycle of life and death. It was as if it could see the evolution of all life from birth to death, from old age to sickness and death.
Chen Zong could not help but exclaim in amazement and shock.
That swordsmanship actually deduced the rise and fall of heaven and earth and the reincarnation of all living beings. It spread out the charm of the mortal world, as if it was reopening heaven and earth. It directly impacted Chen Zong's mind. In the inner universe, there seemed to be waves of indescribable aura that were vast and endless.
Chen Zong had inherited the Stellar Sword Palace's Prodigious Stellar Sword Art. It was a supreme secret technique that wasn't inferior to the Eternal Sword Art. However, Chen Zong had only reached the fifth level of the Prodigious Stellar Sword Art. However, the Eternal Sword Master's mastery of the Eternal Sword Art far exceeded that. Even the Stellar Sword Master's mastery of the Prodigious Stellar Sword Art far exceeded that.
It couldn't be compared to him.
Moreover, the Eternal Sword Art was created by the Eternal Sword Master himself. Self-created sword arts were usually more thorough.
Chen Zong was touched by the Eternal Sword Art. It could not be described with words. It was beyond the cage of swordsmanship and rose to a whole new level, as if it was alive.
If this swordsmanship was further improved, it would really come alive, as if it was endowed with spirituality and life.
Amazement!
Chen Zong was extremely amazed from the bottom of his heart. At the same time, he felt that if he could comprehend and master this Eternal Sword Art, it would be of great benefit to him. It would be indescribable benefit.
Of course, he had just seen it and had not gained much from it. With such a superb swordsmanship, Chen Zong could understand and remember it with his swordsmanship foundation, but he still needed to spend a lot of time to comprehend it.
However, Chen Zong still understood part of it. The Eternal Sword Art had the appearance of the mortal world that deduced the changes of dynasties and the changes of all living beings. However, that was only a part of it, or rather, half of it. It was not the complete Eternal Sword Art, because it was a kind of aura, a kind of atmosphere, and a kind of realm. The realm was the realm, and the power was the power. The two were related but could not be confused.
The Boundless Secular World was the realm of the Eternal Sword Technique, and the power that arose was the power of the Eternal Sword Strike. It was as if the Secular World had been transformed into an incomparably vigorous power that shook the heavens and earth. It was refined into the sword and transformed into a tyrannical attack.
Every sword strike was like a huge and ancient sword mountain that carried an entire world charging through the air. It was extremely ferocious, but it was not just ferocious. Instead, it was a ferocious ferociousness that came from an extremely high realm. His control and application of power had reached an astonishing level.
Exquisite and meticulous was not enough to describe it.
How lucky was he to be able to witness such a swordsmanship with his own eyes and comprehend it to his heart's content?
After the Eternal Sword Master finished deducing the Eternal Sword Art, Chen Zong saluted him with his sword to express his gratitude.
"Senior, I created the Single Hearted Sword Art. Please give me some pointers," Chen Zong said. Although it was said that he was giving pointers, Chen Zong actually wanted to return the favor.
Although the Single Hearted Sword Art was not as good as the Eternal Sword Art of the Eternal Sword Master, in terms of potential, it was not inferior at all. Moreover, it contained the essence of countless superb swordsmanships. By combining them with superb and exquisite methods and completely integrating them into the Single Hearted Sword Art, it created the Single Hearted Sword Art's superb level.
The Single Hearted Sword Art contained its essence. Chen Zong hoped that he could give the Eternal Sword Master something in return.
Like the Eternal Sword Master, Chen Zong only displayed the Single Hearted Sword Art. He did not integrate his cultivation, Sword Will, and so on. In this way, it was more intuitive.
The Eternal Sword Master watched and nodded from time to time. From his point of view, the Single Hearted Sword Art was indeed not as superb as the Eternal Sword Art. However, the atmosphere within it was extraordinary. It was self-contained and was equivalent to opening up a brand new path. It was indeed extraordinary.
When Chen Zong finished deducing the Single Hearted Sword Art, the Eternal Sword Master did not say anything. Instead, he looked like he was deep in thought. This was because he had gained some inspiration from Chen Zong's Single Hearted Sword Art. Although it was not much, this little bit of inspiration was like an opportunity that made the Eternal Sword Master ponder deeply.
His contemplation lasted for a few days and nights. Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin did not idle around. As they comprehended the mysteries of the Eternal Sword Art, they also refined the divinity that they had obtained in this battle.
