Chapter 1586: Major Achievement of Sword Origin
Ouyang Yangwen made his way through the tunnel on foot. His pace was not hurried, but he would cross a very large distance with each step. As he advanced, his presence rapidly climbed while the sword in his hand erupted with powerful sword Qi. He caused the tunnel to gently tremble.
During those nine years, the tunnel had continued to consolidate. It was so tough that it could easily support Reciprocity experts. Even if Reciprocity experts began fighting in it, they find it difficult to collapse.
Ouyang Yangwen’s presence became more and more powerful, basically approaching his limit. This was the first time he had displayed his full power after reaching Reciprocity.
Several Origin realm experts from the World of Forsaken Saints were attacking the divine hall at the end of the tunnel. When they sensed the tremendous surging presence behind them, they immediately stopped and looked back to see Ouyang Yangwen approaching them. Their eyes narrowed while they bowed to Ouyang Yangwen with clasped hands.
“All of you leave. Leave this to me.” Ouyang Yangwen coldly commanded them away. His face was extremely sunken. With a swing of his sword, he immediately produced a streak ofresplendent light that was three hundred meters long. It shot out and smashed into the divine hall heavily with a devastating might.
With a great boom, the light struck the divine hall. Powerful pulses of energy were created and wreaked havoc in the tunnel. They caused the entire tunnel to vibrate and let out a rumble.
However, the divine hall was so tough that even the Spiritking, who was as powerful as a Godhood expert, could only shake the divine hall when it was full of energy. Ouyang Yangwen had reached Reciprocity, but a huge chasm in strength still remained between him and the Spiritking. His disruptive attack did not even shake the divine hall even though it produced a deafening boom.
“I’d like to see just how much longer you can last,” Ouyang Yangwen said coldly. He did not become downhearted due to his attack earlier. He stood in the tunnel all by himself as he launched a barrage of attacks. He struck out with his full power each time, as if he was venting all his hatred for the Tian Yuan Continent onto the divine hall before him.
In the room where all the Origin realm experts gathered within the supreme divine hall, a snow-white beast fur hovered in the air. Over the past few years, they attempted to comprehend the Way of Slaughter left behind by Mo Tianyun while standing guard. However, no one had managed to succeed yet.
No one was comprehending the Way of Slaughter at this moment. The supreme divine hall suddenly received an attack several times more powerful than before. The attack was not as impressive as the Spiritking’s attack from before, but it made everyone in the room stern.
“Has the foreign world launched another large-scale invasion? They must have gathered all their Origin realm experts to launch such a powerful attack. If they keep attacking with such power, the time we have left will greatly shorten,” Guihai Yidao said with a heavy heart. Their origin energy was being consumed at a rate several times faster than before.
“The tunnel is only so large. It can’t hold too many people and would not allow them to attack at the same time. Maybe someone from the foreign world has reached Reciprocity,” said Feng Xiaotian.
Everyone became silent and then became grim.
“After every three or four years, we all have to eat a Mortal Energy Fruit to recover origin energy. Now that the attacks have become more powerful, we’ll consume the Mortal Energy Fruit at a greater rate as well. If this continues, we won’t be able to last very long with our remaining fruit. We can only place all our hopes on Jian Chen now. Let’s hope that Jian Chen will return before the front lines give way, or our world will probably face a mass extinction,” said Houston.
“How can Jian Chen raise his strength to the level where he no longer needs to fear the Spiritking in such a short amount of time?” Tian Jian questioned. He was extremely worried. He knew that Jian Chen was a great prodigy and that his cultivation rate was unprecedented, but the difference between the Origin realm and Godhood was just far too massive. Could he make it in such a short amount of time?
…
Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er dressed themselves and left the deep ditch created by the Yinyang Saint Rock. Shanguan Mu’er entered her earthen hut to refine the energy within her while Jian Chen sat down somewhere a hundred kilometers away. They began to refine the energy they had just absorbed.
Throughout the past few years, Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er had continuously absorbed the energy from the rock through a dual cultivation method and then refined the energy in their bodies. They patiently repeated this cycle because they knew that the Tian Yuan Continent would not last much longer, so they always devoted all their efforts to increasing their strengths. They never let down their guard.
A few days later, Jian Chen roused. He had completely refined the energy he had absorbed and transformed it into a portion of Chaotic Force. The chaotic neidan in his dantian was much larger than before.
Shangguan Mu’er’s speed at refining the energy had increased after reaching Returnance, but she was still nowhere near as fast as Jian Chen. She remained in seclusion.
“I wonder how much time has passed on the Tian Yuan Continent and what the situation is like now.” Jian Chen slowly opened his eyes and gazed at the hazy, gray sky in a daze. There was some worry on his face. However, he knew that he could not return yet since he probably would not be able to change anything with his current strength. Everyone would be better off if he devoted more time to cultivation and powering up as quickly as possible. He could only stop the foreign world once he was strong enough.
