Chapter 554 – The Tiny Vortex’s Origins (2/2)

“What about the 4th, 5th… or 9th?” asked Yang Ye.

The old man smiled. “Greedy kid, don’t reach beyond your grasp. You’ll naturally find out what they contain when your strength arrives at the corresponding level. Now, remember what I’m about to say. Firstly, you must become stronger as soon as possible to access the 2nd level and obtain the medicinal pills and Immortal Artifacts within it. Because this world of yours is on the verge of destruction, so you must possess formidable strength in order to protect yourself. Secondly, take good care of Little Seven. Once you access the 3rd level and learn the divine techniques within it, then bring her back home safely, or I should say that you should return home with her!”

“Senior, are you unable to come and get her even with your strength?” asked Yang Ye.

The white haired old man shook his head and said, “It’s only a strand of my consciousness which is standing before you right now. I’ve sent countless strands of my consciousness to the worlds within innumerable universes in order to find that little girl. If this strand of my consciousness is able to return safely to my world, then I’ll naturally be able to traverse s.p.a.ce and take her back with me. But what if this strand of consciousness fails to return? Not only does it take a very long time to traverse the boundless corridors of s.p.a.ce, it’s filled with endless danger. So, I can only entrust her to you. Understand?”

Yang Ye nodded and said, “I’ve obtained such benefits from Senior, so it’s naturally my duty to help Senior with that. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to become stronger, and I’ll strive to access the 3rd level as soon as possible so that I can take her home.”

The old man smiled as he nodded. “I’m just a strand of consciousness, so I’m unable to bring anything with me, and I can’t give you any treasures as well. But I can still help you in other aspects. I noticed that you train in the sword, and your natural talent in it is extremely good as well. Since it’s like that, then I’ll help you improve a level in your Sword Dao!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying pressure swept out from the old man and enveloped Yang Ye. This pressure wasn’t much different in strength from the pressure the paG.o.da had exerted upon him just now, but he’d been able to resist the pressure since his physical body was far superior to its previous state. However, it still wasn’t easy.

“Activate your Sword Intent!” said the old man.

Yang Ye hurriedly utilized his Sword Intent to resist the pressure. However, his Sword Intent didn’t reduce the pressure he experienced. On the contrary, the pressure he suffered grew more and more terrifying.

Cold sweat gradually started flowing down Yang Ye’s forehead, and it wasn’t long before his entire body was drenched by cold sweat.

Yang Ye noticed that his Sword Intent seemed to be undergoing a transformation. Yes, he could clearly sense his Sword Intent transforming incessantly while the pressure acted upon him. This discovery delighted Yang Ye. He knew that the old man might be trying to improve his Sword Intent by a level and allow him to attain perfection in Sword Intent!

When he thought up to this point, Yang Ye crazily poured out his Sword Intent to resist the pressure.

After an unknown period of time pa.s.sed, the pressure on Yang Ye’s body had vanished.

Bang!

Countless fine swords that were the size of fingers surged out from within Yang Ye. These swords seemed material yet seemed ethereal at the same time. It was like they were both ethereal and material, and it was impossible to distinguish clearly.

The fine swords grew larger and larger in number. In the end, the fine swords covered an area of about 1km around Yang Ye, and their numbers were still increasing!

“Perfection in Sword Intent! Everything is a sword!” Yang Ye took a deep breath while excitement flickered in his eyes. Every single one of these fine swords wasn’t weaker to a Heaven Rank treasure in might. At this moment, he was confident that he only had to utilize Sword Intent to kill fifth rank Exalt Realm experts. Just like how An Nanjing had blasted Elder Yun flying by merely utilizing her combined Intent and shouting ‘f.u.c.k off’ at Elder Yun!

Yang Ye bowed respectfully to the white haired old man and said, “Thank you, Senior!”

The white haired old man smiled and said, “I hope we’ll be able to meet soon. Farewell!” The old man vanished on the spot once he finished speaking.

After the old man left, Yang Ye fell silent on the spot for a short while. Everything that had occurred today felt like a dream to him. A special bloodline? Perfection in Sword Intent? Every level is a world….

A long time pa.s.sed before Yang Ye shook his head and chuckled. He stopped thinking about all that, and he left the Primordial PaG.o.da.

“Yang Ye, you’re finally back!” When Yang Ye appeared once more on the back of the divine gold dragon, he saw Lu Jianyao’s face which was covered in anxiousness.

Yang Ye was just about to speak when Lu Jianyao hurriedly said, “Don’t explain anything. We don’t have any time now. Quickly! Let’s return quickly to the southern territory! My father sent me a transmission talisman just now. The Origin School, Ghost Sect, Flower Palace, and Brightmoon Sect have joined force and suddenly attacked the Sword Sect. The Sword Sect is probably on the verge of collapse now!”

A wisp of a ferocious expression instantly surged onto Yang Ye’s face when he heard this!
