163: The Supreme Being is ruthless and kills his sister to prove his truth
Below Cang Mountain.
Amidst a flurry of activity,
the aged Tai'a Sword God was helped up by several of his Disciples.
“Revered Master, are you alright?”
An Immortal King Disciple, rushing over, saw the Old Sword God’s Face, which was ashen, and quickly stepped forward, reaching out to support his arm, pushing another Disciple aside. His eyes were anxious, and his voice filled with concern as he asked.
“It’s nothing.”
Tai'a Sword God waved his hand, slowly straightened up, seemingly still shaken, his body still swaying slightly.
Fortunately, the strongest in the Sword Domain was not just for show.
After a mere ten minutes, Tai'a Sword God finally recovered, exhaling a mouthful of turbid Qi.
The Disciples surrounding Tai'a Sword God watched as his complexion gradually regained its color and his aura returned to its powerful state, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
“Revered Master, that was the ultimate Dao of the Sword. Why did it backfire on you?”
The Immortal King Disciple from before asked again.
Their Revered Master had been doing well on Cang Mountain, but this sudden descent to show off unexpectedly led to a backlash from the Dao of the Sword, almost sending him to an early grave. This caused both heartache and confusion for his filial Disciples.
“Heh heh.”
Tai'a Sword God's cloudy gaze swept over the Faces around him.
Aside from the Disciples supporting him, behind them, shoulder to shoulder, was a sea of people.
His gaze flickered, taking note of these people, then he waved his hand again, saying, “This was just an accident.”
Looking at the people who had him surrounded, necks craned, watching intensely, he felt a bit embarrassed and explained again, “The Dao of the Sword is sharp and peerless, invincible under heaven.”
“Its rare manifestation today signifies the flourishing of the Dao of the Sword, and it is fitting that the Sword Domain should greatly prosper.”
“Alas.”
He sighed at this point, “Such a grand spectacle is rare in millions of years. I was momentarily unaware, presumptuously attempting to contend with the great sun with the power of a mere firefly, so I naturally suffered a backlash.”
“The Dao of the Sword was not targeting me either.”
“If I had been prepared, it naturally wouldn't have happened. What happened just now… was ultimately my carelessness, I didn't dodge.”
Tai'a Sword God’s explanation made the onlookers thoughtful.
As people of the Sword Domain, they practiced the sword daily. Those without exceptional talent could usually only glimpse a tiny fraction of the Dao of the Sword when they made a Breakthrough in their Sword Domain Realm.
But today, everyone could directly see the Dao of the Sword with their naked eyes.
Tai'a Sword God was not wrong; such a grand spectacle was unprecedented, and it was only natural that the Old Sword God didn't manage to dodge in time.
“Alright.”
“This old man is going to the Immortal Realm; I shall go ahead.”
Having finished his sophistry, Tai'a Sword God pushed away the supporting crowd, and clouds once again formed beneath his feet, preparing to depart swiftly.
“Revered Master, you haven’t taken your sword.”
“Ah! Why is it shattered?!”
Hearing his Disciple’s shout,
Tai'a Sword God’s Face darkened, and he quickened his steps, swiftly disappearing from the Sword Domain.
After disappearing from the Sword Domain, his heart was far from calm!
The explanation he gave to his Disciples and grand-Disciples was merely to save Face.
What carelessness, what not dodging.
Just now, when he was struck by the backlash from the Dao of the Sword, let alone him, even if the Sword Master had come, he would not have been able to avoid it.
Why did the Dao of the Sword attack me?
Was it really because I displayed my sword aura and left a message when the Dao of the Sword manifested earlier?
Tai'a Sword God was preoccupied with his thoughts!
He had guarded the Sword Hut for millions of years, and the biggest reason for his descent now was that the Dao of the Sword had manifested, and the time was ripe.
But the small incident just now gave him a bad premonition.
The Dao of the Sword he cultivated was the Domain Dao of the Sword.
What is the Domain Dao of the Sword?
Within the Domain, I am invincible.
Outside the Domain, I do not act.
Precisely because of this, after his Dao of the Sword reached Major Achievement, he guarded the Cang Mountain Sword Hut and never took another step out.
At his level, he already had a connection with the Dao of the Sword; he was its most devout devotee. How could the Dao of the Sword backfire on him?
What Tai'a Sword God cared about was not the backlash!
For countless years, only Floating Slaughter Sword Master had defeated him from a higher Realm, using his Realm advantage at the Cang Mountain Sword Hut.
Because of that battle, he failed to Breakthrough, lost terribly, and was forced to become Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s old servant.
Although Floating Slaughter Sword Master publicly declared that battle a philosophical discussion with no victor.
But ever since then, his Dao of the Sword could no longer advance!
It was no longer possible for him to enter the Supreme Sword Master Realm with his Domain Dao of the Sword!
Over the years, he had been studying how Floating Slaughter Sword Master had broken through the shackles from the Great Sword God Realm and ascended to the Sword Master Realm.
From his perspective,
Floating Slaughter Sword Master succeeded very easily!
He cultivated the Supreme Heartless Dao of the Sword!
Back then, on the Tian Yuan Battlefield, the Sword Domain fought a bitter battle with the great demons from beyond the Domain and suffered a devastating defeat!
Just as the great demons were about to descend upon the Sword Domain, which would result in mountains of corpses and rivers of blood in both the Sword Domain and the Immortal Realm, threatening the destruction of the world.
At that critical moment,
Floating Slaughter Sword Master, who hailed from the Sky Sword Clan, single-handedly slaughtered all of his Bloodline, including his parents, millions of Sky Sword Clan members!
Under the obstruction of Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s most beloved younger sister, Su Ji,
A small number of Sky Sword Clan members barely survived.
Floating Slaughter Sword Master did not choose to kill his sister on the spot to prove his Dao, but instead entrusted him to slay Su Ji!
Su Ji perished!
Floating Slaughter Sword Master attained the unprecedented Sword Master Realm!
This man, more heartless than the Heavenly Dao, ultimately charged into the Tian Yuan Battlefield, fighting countless great demons alone, until the Tian Yuan Battlefield flowed with blood and was piled high with demon corpses.
Supreme Heartlessness! Shaking the Eight Desolations!
The sacrifice of the Sky Sword Clan made him a great hero who saved the Immortal Realm!
And it deeply shocked Tai'a Sword God!
So that’s how one attains the Sword Master Realm!
By pushing the Dao of the Sword to its extreme, one can attain Sword Master!
He learned it!
But he couldn't replicate it!
Floating Slaughter Sword Master could be Supreme Heartless, killing all beings, killing his clan members, killing his father, mother, and sister!
But he cultivated the Domain Dao of the Sword.
It wasn't something achievable by simply killing.
The ultimate of the Domain is that wherever one reaches, it becomes their Domain.
But the Dao of the Sword he cultivated was far from achieving that; it had long reached its limit!
And just now, as the Dao of the Sword manifested, his stagnant Domain Dao of the Sword actually showed signs of ascension.
Tai'a Sword God knew that the time had come!
He needed to find someone to test his Domain Dao of the Sword on, to explore his Sword Master Dao.
If the opponent was too weak, he couldn't explore.
If the opponent was too strong, it was difficult to explore.
Now was the perfect time; Su Ji had revived and appeared in the Liu Shen Domain.
Willow God, number ten on the Immortal King Ranking, an Invincible Immortal King.
Very suitable for a sword test!
And he could also fulfill Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s command, killing two birds with one stone.
So, he descended the mountain.
But now, having just descended, he was not favored by the Dao of the Sword. Even if the sword test succeeded, attaining Sword Master would be very, very difficult.
His expression turned cold as he brushed aside distracting thoughts.
This was just an accident.
The sword had been unsheathed, so it must be seen through to the end!
How could there be any reason to give up halfway?!
“Tai'a Sword God, the Sword Holding Alliance greets you.”
Just as Tai'a Sword God made up his mind,
he had already entered the border of the Immortal Realm; this was a colorful asteroid belt.
Beyond the asteroids was a magnificent great Domain of the Immortal Realm.
And as this tattered-clothed old man paused here, a figure appeared.
Flappy ears, squinting eyes.
A rounded Face with a double chin.
The newcomer was very tall, dressed in golden immortal robes, which made him appear distinguished.
This person was none other than the Supreme Alliance Revered Master of the Sword Holding Alliance, Eternal Immortal King.
He wore a smile, his gaze filled with shock as he looked at the silver river of the Dao of the Sword in the distant sky, then quickly turned his gaze to Tai'a Sword God, with apprehension in his eyes.
“Oh?”
“Little Xie, I finally came down the mountain, are you trying to stop me?”
Tai'a Sword God’s gaze fell on Eternal Immortal King, and he spoke indifferently.
Those from the Sword Domain, who originated from the Supreme Realm, looked down on the Immortal Realm!
As the most ancient person from the Sword Domain, he looked down on it even more!
Although Eternal Immortal King was only two ranks below him on the Immortal King Ranking, Tai'a Sword God had never placed him in his eyes.
Eternal Immortal King, a amiable person, chuckled upon hearing this, “Tai'a Sword God must be joking. My Sword Holding Alliance has always prioritized harmony, and the Sword Domain has always been on good terms with the Immortal Realm, so naturally, we wouldn't obstruct a distinguished guest from the Sword Domain.”
“This King is here to receive Sword God on his trip to the Immortal Realm.”
Tai'a Sword God coldly swept his gaze across his Face and said coldly, “Receive? No need.”
“Su Ji has appeared in the Immortal Realm, yet you all don’t capture her and send her over. Instead, you obstruct my Disciples from entering the Realm.”
“Now that this old man has come personally, the Sword Holding Alliance comes to obstruct again.”
“Do you perhaps think you can stop this old man?”
Eternal Immortal King helplessly waved his hand, “Never, never.”
“When Demon Sword Immortal King came to the Immortal Realm, we never obstructed him.”
“He has old ties with my young Revered Master. When he came to the Immortal Realm, he naturally deserved good hospitality. These past two days, Demon Sword Immortal King has been enjoying Fairy playing the flute at the Wonderful Sound Immortal Pavilion.”
“That Su Ji isn’t going anywhere in the Immortal Realm, why is Tai'a Sword God so anxious?”
At this point, Eternal Immortal King looked down at Tai'a Sword God’s mud-stained straw sandals and suggested, “Sword God hasn’t left the mountain for many years, perhaps you don’t know that there are many fun and delicious things in the Immortal Realm now. How about you come with this King to the Wonderful Sound Immortal Pavilion to wash your feet first, then play a few rounds of the popular ‘Fighting Xuan Wei’ game that’s sweeping the Immortal Realm these days, and then go capture Su Ji?”
Tai'a Sword God had a rigid personality. Hearing this, his Face turned cold, and he said coldly, “What is all this nonsense? This Rebellious Disciple is truly incorrigible.”
“Move aside, this old man is not interested.”
As his voice fell, his figure flickered, like an ancient divine sword, sweeping past Eternal Immortal King and heading towards the Liu Shen Domain.
Watching Tai'a Sword God’s figure disappear into the distance, Eternal Immortal King’s expression was somewhat displeased as he watched the silver river of the Dao of the Sword flow and become even more dazzling, spanning across the Immortal Realm.
He didn’t stop him.
Today, the Dao of the Sword is greatly prosperous, even my Immortal Realm is pierced by the Dao of the Sword.
Brother Chu, good luck to you.
