Chapter 770 – The Impregnable Sword Domain! (1/2)
“Clear your mind and focus. Everything within the Sword Domain is you, and you are everything within the Sword Domain…. You’re invincible within the Sword Domain!” As her voice resounded in Yang Ye’s mind, Yang Ye slowly closed his eyes. This time, he didn’t try to control the Sword Domain, he started to sense everything within it instead.
The first thing he sensed was Nether Maiden’s Laws. It was very powerful, extremely powerful! It was powerful to the point that even his sword intent couldn’t harm it. The energy of her Laws had forcefully changed everything around him. For example, the sky, the scorching sun above the sky, and everything around him were pitch black like the veil of night. Moreover, his body was clearly filled with boundless vitality, but it was gradually being transformed into Death Energy now.
It was the reversal of Yin and Yang!
It was a type of energy of the Laws, and it has surpa.s.sed the scope of techniques.
Yang Ye’s vision gradually grew clearer. He used to see everything around him with his eyes, yet now, he was using his heart to view it, and such observation through the eye of his heart allowed him to notice some things that he’d never come into contact with in the past.
It was the quintessence!
The quintessence of all things! The quintessence of energy and the quintessence of the Laws. Of course, he’d only noticed it yet hadn’t grasped it. Moreover, he understood that he’d merely noticed the tip of the iceberg.
At this moment, Yang Ye understood why the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor’s sword intent was that powerful. It was because it contained the energy of the Laws possessed by the Unfettered One. To put it simply, it couldn’t be considered as mere sword intent, it should be considered as sword intent of the Laws.
What were the Laws?
Yang Ye didn’t know the answer to that. Because he hadn’t grasped them. But he understood what the quintessence of things were. He could clearly sense all sorts of energy including s.p.a.ce and time within the scope of his Sword Domain. All of them seemed like they’d been magnified 10,000 times within his mind, and every minute detail was clearly visible to him!
After he grasped the quintessence of these things, it couldn’t be any easier to break them open
and destroy them.
Now, he finally understood why his Sword Domain wasn’t strong in the past. It was because he hadn’t understood the true meaning of the Sword Domain, and he was just utilizing it instinctively to suppress his enemies. That was exactly why his Sword Domain had been shattered with a single strike from Nether Maiden that day.
Yang Ye’s eyes slowly opened up, and then Sword Intent surged out from within him. This time, the sword intent wasn’t shattered by the energy of Nether Maiden’s Laws. The sword intent seemed to be one with the s.p.a.ce and air around Yang Ye. It could be seen and sensed, yet it left no traces behind!
The sword intent formed a ball that started enlarging with Yang Ye at the center. Everywhere it pa.s.sed, s.p.a.ce turned from black to white while Death Energy was converted into vitality. It wasn’t long before everything within Yang Ye’s Sword Domain had returned to calm. Moreover, his sword intent filled his Sword Domain, and the sword intent had merged completely with the heavens and the earth. Even s.p.a.ce had merged with it!
Everyone in the surroundings was petrified.
“The impregnable Sword Domain!” A long time pa.s.sed before the blind old man spoke.
“Another Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor has been born!” The headless person spoke as well.
At this moment, Nether Maiden opened her eyes, and she gazed at Yang Ye for a long time before she said, “Congratulations. No one at the mid-grade Half-Saint Realm or below can kill you now!”
Yang Ye glanced at Nether Maiden, and then his figure flashed and transformed into a ray of light that vanished into the horizon.
“Your highness, he’ll definitely become a formidable enemy to our Hallowed Halls if he isn’t killed!” Those white robed elders of the Hallowed Halls appeared by Nether Maiden’s side while one of them spoke solemnly.
Nether Maiden looked towards the horizon for a short while, and then she withdrew her gaze and glanced at the old man, “You want me to die with him?”
The old man’s expression changed, and then he hurriedly said, “I dare not ask that….”
Nether Maiden paid no further attention to the old man. She turned around and transformed into a ray of light that vanished from their fields of vision. The old man’s face changed indeterminately, and he seemed as if he wanted to pursue Yang Ye. However, one of the old men by his side said, “While he has grasped some of the ability of the Sword Domain, he’s far inferior to the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor. The Supreme Exalts are on their way to the southern territory, so he’ll only be giving his life away by returning there. But if we pursue him now, even if we’re able to kill the Half-Saint puppets he has and kill him as well, it would be a pyrrhic victory for us. It isn’t worth it!”
The old man hesitated for a long time upon hearing this. In the end, he abandoned his intentions to pursue Yang Ye and returned to the Hallowed Halls with the others.
Meanwhile, the blind old man gazed towards the direction Yang Ye had left and said, “He’s both righteous and evil. He kills the members of the Hallowed Grounds yet kills the defiant profounders as well. If he leads the southern territory to attack us while we fight the defiant profounders in the future, then it probably won’t end well for us. He’s only 5,000km away right now. I’m 90% confident in my ability to kill him if I act now!”
“I’ll definitely eat you!” Yin’yin gazed at the old man and spoke seriously, “Even though big brother doesn’t allow me to eat people, I’ll break the rules once if you dare to kill him!”
The corners of the old man’s mouth twitched, and he said, “How cruel of you, little girl. How long have we known each other? How long have you known him? Yet you actually intend to eat me for him? I really doted on you for nothing!”
Yin’yin grunted and remained silent.
Meanwhile, the headless person spoke abruptly, “Only if the 3 of us stay together would we be able to resist the Hallowed Grounds and defiant profounders. If we fight each other, then it would be no different than courting death. Just leave that kid, Yang Ye, alive. It’s just as you said earlier. He fights the defiant profounders as well. Perhaps he might become an ally of ours in the future. There’s a very high probability for that. Because it’s obvious that he has been very good to Yin’yin!”
