Xu Li stood on a branch of a large tree, his fists clenched tightly, cold sweat seeping from his body, his spine chilled as he stared ahead in horror, unable to speak, forgetting to think.
At this mont, a chill surged, and his heart seed to sink into an ice cave, feeling an endless icy sensation flooding his mind.
"Is this truly the ans of a great power?"
The ancient sword, his greatest reliance hanging around his neck, was still trembling.
Earlier, at the mont when that slash of sword light, as if splitting the heavens and the earth, rose, he clearly felt the ancient sword around his neck shaking incessantly, and the longsword in his hand humd and abruptly lowered.
He was born into an ordinary family of commoners. During a severe drought, his family could no longer put food on the table, so they sent him to a pharmacy in the city to beco an apprentice.
During his apprenticeship, Xu Li found an ancient sword.
Three inches in size, engraved with ancient and unknown patterns, full of rusty spots, it looked like a little toy casually discarded by children.
Yet, this ancient little sword beca his greatest reliance.
Because,
this ancient sword could aid his cultivation.
No matter what Cultivation and Martial Techniques, regardless of Level, as long as he saw the secret manual, by communicating with the ancient sword in his consciousness, he could enter a mysterious space in his dreams.
In that space, a golden little figure would demonstrate all the Martial Arts Secret Manuals he had seen.
It was by relying on this ancient little sword that Xu Li grew from an obscure pharmacy apprentice to beco a genius of the region.
Not long ago, during a martial competition, he defeated a True Disciple from a major Sect in broad daylight,
his fa soaring, with his deeds starting to spread in the surrounding area.
His humble origins, coupled with an almost undefeated record since his debut, made many martial artists captivated and recognized him as the most promising young talent to advance to the Void Realm in Nanyang County's Cultivation Realm.
This ti,
Xu Li originally planned to leave Nanyang County, directly enter the demon beast mountain range, traverse the entire Wilderness Forest, and venture into other continents' Cultivation Realms to seek opportunities.
The journey was full of thrill but without danger.
With his formidable strength and cautious vigilance, he essentially encountered thrill but no danger, slaying the demon beasts that blocked his way, and along the journey, he obtained nurous Spirit dicines.
This made him scoff at the demon beast mountain range that Nanyang County's cultivators dreaded so.
Feeling that while the demon beast mountain range was dangerous, it was nothing more.
Until,
he inadvertently strayed into this battlefield.
When the colossal demon beast overlord hidden beneath the earth broke through the ground and rose, its terror swept like a tsunami, pressing down the sky until it collapsed, and rolling dark clouds obscured the daylight.
At that mont, Xu Li almost died of fright.
Because he had heard of that enormous demon beast with five towering tails.
The reason the deep part of the demon beast mountain range beca a forbidden zone that Nanyang County martial artists dreaded was precisely because of this legend of the Five-tailed Demon Beast.
It was a terror capable of destroying the entire Nanyang County City.
Legend says,
hundreds of years ago, soone unknowingly angered this forbidden overlord, resulting in the Five-tailed Demon Beast personally attacking Nanyang County, where several Sects were annihilated in the war, and more than five Void Realm true cultivators perished, causing the entire Nanyang County Cultivation Realm severe losses!
It was only after this terrifying demon beast ravaged and finally slowly retreated from Nanyang County that the area beca a forbidden zone for Nanyang County City.
Hundreds of years ago, before even Xu Li's grandfather was born, it was naturally impossible for him to witness the invincible posture of this forbidden overlord, hence he was always indifferent about it, thinking that Nanyang County martial artists might have been exaggerating.
However,
when he saw that gigantic figure burst from the earth, wreaking havoc, and causing the heavens and earth to roar like tides,
Xu Li then realized he was wrong,
very wrong!
This was an invincible forbidden overlord!
But just as he was awkwardly fleeing, a massive beast's roar reverberated through the world, pulling his Divine Soul back to reality, only to find a figure standing in the high sky before the forbidden overlord.
Then,
he saw the most unforgettable scene of his life.
The terrifying sword light pierced the heavens and earth, slicing even the sky into two mirror-like surfaces.
Ti and space seed to fracture under that sword.
It brought him a bizarre sense of dissonance,
and that forbidden overlord that towered into the sky couldn't withstand even a single move, vanishing into dust under the magnificent sword light, and the ground below was erased by an invisible giant hand, forming a massive rift spanning hundreds of ters wide and beyond sight!
At that mont, Xu Li felt his mind go blank.
"So, I was just a frog in the bottom of a well..."
When he was in Nanyang County,
with his Sea of Qi Realm cultivation, aided by several Ancient Divine Skill Secret Techniques deciphered by the ancient sword, even the Void Realm might not have been able to take him down.
Thus,
an inflated Xu Li believed that the vast world was enough for him to roam freely and be carefree.
But everything before him had thoroughly shattered all his previous understanding.
Even with all the Divine Skill Secret Techniques he could muster in his mind, he had no ability to resist against this sword!
Utterly powerless,
when power reaches a certain level, all techniques and strategies beco futile.
This is the realm of true strongn!
The true great power!
Staring blankly at the azure-clad figure in the sky, Xu Li's eyes were filled with shock.
At that instant, the figure seed to sense his gaze, suddenly lifting their head, sweeping their gaze across.
Boom!!!
In an instant, Xu Li's mind roared, every thought scattered and shattered, leaving his mind blank.
Though hidden among ancient trees, separated by a thousand palms, when that azure figure's gaze t his, it felt as if the person teleported before him; under that gaze which seed to penetrate all the world's secrets, he felt as if pierced by thousands of arrows, plunged into an ice cave, unable to move even a single finger!
Boom!!!
His body's True Qi spiraled out of control, his feet crunching as the branch underneath was destroyed by the violently surging Powerful Energy, losing control of his body and plumting to the ground from the sky.
Crash!
Falling to the ground, he was covered with shattered wood chips and dirt.
Xu Li gasped for air, as if experiencing an indescribable nightmare, his mind blank, struggling to get up, fleeing like a startled rabbit, leaving everything behind.
What he failed to notice was,
in his mind, there seed to be a new Martial Technique called the Ti Sword Technique.....
