434: The sword embryo is newly formed, and ten thousand swords come to pay homage.

Inside Shen Yuanmo's Sea of Consciousness Universe, everything was in Chaos.

Within the slowly closing eyes of that ten-thousand-zhang chaos divine man, the birth and death of a Kendo world were reflected.

From its birth to its peak, and finally to its collapse and being swallowed.

All of True Man Taiyi's Kendo insights, his life's accumulation, and even that sliver of Kendo true intent that touched the threshold of the Mahayana realm.

At this moment, they all turned into the purest Dao rule fragments, being frantically parsed, reorganized, and absorbed within the body of the chaos divine man.

In an instant, it felt as if a million years of time had passed.

Shen Yuanmo saw the complete path of True Man Taiyi from a Mortal to the peak of Kendo.

He saw how he forged swords, how he attained enlightenment on the Dao, and how he slew demons.

How he single-handedly founded an immortal Sect that suppressed the Eastern Region for hundreds of thousands of years.

If these vast and profound memories and insights were transferred to any other Dao Integration Great Power,

I'm afraid their Divine Soul would be instantly blown apart, their Dao Heart would be lost, and they would become another True Man Taiyi.

But for Shen Yuanmo, who possessed the Chaos Great Dao, this was merely adding a brilliant star river to his boundless Chaos Universe.

"Kendo... so that's how it is."

A whisper echoed throughout the Sea of Consciousness.

Shen Yuanmo's understanding of the sword underwent a qualitative transformation at this moment.

True Man Taiyi's Mahayana Kendo no longer held any secrets before him... Outside, on Enlightenment Cliff.

As the last imprint of True Man Taiyi's will was completely refined,

The taiyi sword Origin essence floating within the Chaos furnace let out a faint wail and completely lost all resistance.

It no longer twisted, nor did it struggle.

It achieved a perfect Fusion with the great evolution immortal slaying sword, which had already melted into Chaos sword liquid.

Two completely different yet essentially same-Origin powers began their final Fusion.

With a thought from Shen Yuanmo, the Chaos dao fetus dharma image behind him suddenly closed its hands.

The Chaos Origin fire within the furnace surged in power.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

The fused sword liquid tumbled, evaporated, and purified violently within the flames.

Wisps and strands of Impurities that did not belong to the Chaos Great Dao were forcibly expelled, then turned into nothingness within the Chaos fire.

The entire process was extremely fast.

After only a dozen or so breaths, all the sword liquid had been purified.

Only a lump of deep Chaos-colored metallic liquid, about the size of a fist, remained.

It floated quietly, appearing like a miniature black hole, capable of swallowing even light and Divine Sense.

"Congeal!"

Shen Yuanmo spoke a true word.

Under the guidance of his will, that lump of Chaos sword liquid began to take shape.

It slowly stretched and deformed, molding into the prototype of a sword.

The sword's body was slender with smooth lines, devoid of any redundant decoration.

Its only unique feature was in the center of the blade.

A pitch-black crack, deeper and more real than the original great evolution immortal slaying sword, slowly took shape.

That crack was no longer a simple sword mark.

It seemed to truly slash open space, with the other end connecting to an unknown void and eternal silence.

Just looking at it made one's Divine Soul tremble, as if they were about to be sucked into it and sink for eternity.

Buzz—!

At the very moment this brand-new sword embryo was fully formed,

A vast and unfathomable sword pressure soared into the sky from the center of Enlightenment Cliff.

Boom!

The Chaos array that Shen Yuanmo had casually set up earlier to block outside detection,

Was instantly torn to shreds like paper before this sword pressure.

The sword pressure soared upwards, piercing through the clouds and entering the star river of the Nine Heavens.

In an instant, the winds and clouds changed color, and heaven and earth lost their sound.

The entire Taiyi Mountain Range, and even all regions within a radius of millions of miles centered on the Taiyi Mountain Range,

Underwent an incredible mutation at this moment.

In the Eastern Region, at a certain secluded Sword Cultivator Sect,

A Grand Elder who was in secluded cultivation to break through the Void Return Bottleneck saw the natal Dao sword that had accompanied him for tens of thousands of years

Suddenly let out a violent hum and rushed out of its scabbard uncontrollably.

The tip of the sword pointed toward the Taiyi Mountain Range from afar, its body trembling violently as if worshipping its king.

"Pfft!"

The old man's mind was shaken, causing him to spit out a mouthful of essence blood as he looked at his sword in horror: "What happened?!"

Inside a prosperous immortal city,

In all the shops selling dharma swords, tens of thousands of long swords,

Regardless of their grade or age, all came to life at the same time.

They broke free from their scabbards and flew into the air, densely packed like a dark cloud made of steel.

All the sword tips pointed in the same direction.

The sword bodies hummed, like thousands of believers chanting in low voices.

Countless Cultivators in the city looked up in horror, staring dumbfounded at this spectacle they had never seen in their lives.

"Heavens! This is... Ten Thousand Swords Paying Homage!"

"What kind of divine sword's birth could trigger such a phenomenon of heaven and earth?!"

"The direction... it seems to be over toward the Taiyi Sword Sect!"

Similar scenes were constantly playing out across the vast lands of the Eastern Region.

The swords held by countless Sword Cultivators all experienced abnormal movements at this moment.

They were either excited, fearful, or submissive.

But without exception, they were all paying their highest respect toward that direction.

It was as if a supreme Dominator above all swords had descended upon the world... Taiyi Mountain Range.

Myriad Laws Daoist, Qing Xuzi, and others were directing their Disciples to inventory the seized resources.

The moment that sword pressure soared into the sky, everyone stopped what they were doing.

Disciples with low cultivation were directly pressed to their knees by this sword pressure, their faces pale and even breathing becoming difficult.

Myriad Laws Daoist and the others were also shaken to their Divine Souls; they looked toward Enlightenment Cliff in horror, their eyes filled with shock.

This sword pressure was too strong!

The dao rhyme contained within it had already exceeded the scope of the Hedao Realm.

It carried an immortal quality that they could not understand, yet felt a deep sense of reverence for from the depths of their Souls.

"It's Elder Shen!"

Star River Daoist's figure appeared out of thin air, his hair and beard flaring out.

His old face was flushed red with excitement, and his body was even trembling slightly.

He stared fixedly toward Enlightenment Cliff, feeling that terrifying sword pressure that was both familiar and strange, and roared with a hoarse voice.

"Success! Elder Shen... he successfully reforged his natal Dao sword!"

On Enlightenment Cliff, Shen Yuanmo's expression was calm.

He reached out, and that newly born Chaos sword embryo flew obediently into his palm, emitting bursts of intimate, childlike affection.

The sword embryo was linked to his Bloodline and connected to his mind.

Shen Yuanmo could feel the terrifying power contained within it; this power was enough to easily slay any Dao Integration Great Power.

But he knew that this was not enough.

There was still one last step.

inscribing Dao patterns!

Only by inscribing the Dao he had comprehended upon it

Could it truly become his own natal Dao sword and exert its full power.

"Since it is my Kendo, it should be paired with a unique pattern."

Shen Yuanmo had a thought.

"Perfect Deduction, activate!"

Within his Sea of Consciousness, that chaos divine man opened its eyes once again.

The Mahayana-level Kendo insights belonging to True Man Taiyi that he had just swallowed and absorbed

Turned into a torrent of billions of runes, rapidly combining, deducing, and optimizing before the Divine Being.

What Shen Yuanmo wanted to do was not to imitate True Man Taiyi's Kendo.

Instead, he would use his own Chaos Great Dao as a foundation to create a brand-new Chaos sword pattern that belonged only to him, Shen Yuanmo.

However, at the very moment Shen Yuanmo began his deduction,

Boom—!

High above the Nine Heavens, a dull roll of thunder echoed throughout the entire Taiyi Mountain Range.

The sky, which had been clear for ten thousand miles just a moment ago, was now shrouded by tribulation clouds as thick as ink.

Black clouds pressed down on the city, threatening to crush it.

Thick purple lightning snakes, as large as mountain ranges, tumbled and roared within the cloud layers.

They emitted a destructive aura sufficient to make even a Dao Integration Great Power feel despair.

A resplendent heavenly power descended from the Nine Heavens, firmly locking onto Shen Yuanmo on Enlightenment Cliff and the sword embryo in his hand that was not yet fully completed.

The birth of this Heaven-Defying divine sword had actually directly drawn the execution of heaven and earth.
