The al in the air next to the thirteen thrones He said softly, “A thousand years has concluded”
The twelve golden-ar with eyes closed, or silently drinking wine all came alert

The alently stroked his snohite beard, then se the Daolord Cloudworld They will have three days! The four who ain this opportunity”
“Challenge the Daolord Cloudworld?” The twelve instantly understood
Ji Ning was seated in the lotus position within his spacetie, still located in the ancient Forest of Sword PaGodas within the Sword Palace
“Darknorth, co’s mind
“Eh?” Ning opened his eyes Diht could be seen within them “A thousand years has concluded It seee”
Ning’s sword-arts were now far more formidable than when he had first developed the Reincarnation stance or the Cosmic Heart stance His sword-arts were actually still continuing to improve, and he hadn’t encountered any bottlenecks yet Alas, he siiven him a thousand years
Whoosh Ning put away his spacetime acceleration treasure, then flew out of the Forest of Sword PaGodas and towards Lord Woodflower’s palace
Lord Woodfloas seated in the lotus position atop a golden-red prayer mat In front of him were seven similarly seated cultivators There was one who looked like a child, one who looked like a youngster, one who looked like a youth, and even an old man They all had coe or ed by their appearances At this level, there were soe before suddenly shi+ning with brilliance and e upon the path of cultivation
“A thousand years has concluded” Lord Woodfloept Ning and the others with his gaze “The seven of you are the only ones within our Sword Palace have been acknowledged by our ancient paGodas Right now, in the Twelve Palaces there are a total of sixty-seven individuals on your level, yourselves included All of you will be fighting for this opportunity
“Sixty-seven challengers, only four spots
“The alo and challenge the Daolord Cloudworld You must complete your attempt within three days, and the final four who make it farthest into the Cloudworld shall be the ones to win this opportunity,” Lord Woodflower said
Ji Ning, Swordlord Wildfire, Swordlord Graceless, and the others all beca to do their absolute best, and indeed training in the Dao of the Sword itself was training in a path of no return

“Understood” Ning and the others were all very soleered or offended by Lord Woodflower’s words Given their achieveures who knew the i their opponents The other coed by the ancient paGodas as well Some were special lifeforms, and some had experienced tremendous strokes of karmic luck None could be belittled or underestimated
“I can only do ’s heart was firainst these other acknowledged World-level opponents Although the battle hadn’t started yet, Ning was already beginning to feel exciteh his veins
“Palace Lord Dawnstar is the undisputed most powerful Daolord of the Twelve Palaces Even if we factor in all the other organizations of the Endless Territories, he would be ranked the second most powerful Daolord He personally tutored all of you for ains a slot, even I will feel ashamed on your behalf” Daolord Yinwind’s voice was filled with icy arrogance This was his natural, innate disposition
When he was a young ed into an incredibly powerful but evil sect, filled with all sorts of viledoers and evil o, and by now a sih to wipe out that evil sect He was now a Deputy Palace Lord of the Saber Palace, and his name and reputation held tremendous influence within the Endless Territories”
“Don’t worry, Lord Yinwind”
“Forget two, let’s try for all four!”
The Saberlords of the Saber Palace were bri with confidence
The sixty-seven waiting World-level challengers all received word from their respective elders Some headed for the Daolord Cloudworld i the challenge on the final day
