Born with immortal seed

Chapter 899 The Pivot of the Myriad Phenomena Sword
Nearly half of the disciples of Rotten Ke Mountain died. Fortunately, Shao Yang sealed off the fighting space; otherwise, the aftershocks would have shattered the entire island several times over.

The restrictions were lifted, and the process ended cleanly and decisively, without causing a ripple.

The future sword strike also originated from the Ziwei Dazzling Thunder Sword, coupled with the Ember Night Lamp, so his death was not unjust.

Many palaces and pavilions on the island were destroyed with a single, casual strike when Shao Yang arrived.

But after Shao Yang died, and after the starfall ended, the entire island rumbled several times and rose several feet higher.

The island's elevation above the sea increased significantly, and the overall density of spiritual energy rose to a higher level.

Especially those destroyed spiritual lands, all are filled with a misty aura, radiating new life.

Even a single whale fall can give rise to countless creatures, let alone a combined whale.

The combined bodies of fallen beings can often form a small world that can last for tens of thousands of years or even longer.

If one dies of natural causes, the creatures within the grotto can continue to live and operate as in the normal world.

The bodies of those who die violently and combine to form a forbidden land that radiates for thousands of miles, or give birth to countless rare and precious materials, bringing blessings to millions.

Shao Yang's life force was extinguished by the myriad thunderbolts of the heavens, and his origin was worn away by the scorching night lamp, so he cannot be viewed normally.

But the benefits it brings are still immense.

From now on, Lankeshan will rank among the top three islands of the Five Dragon Sea Immortal Mountain.

In the celestial realm of Shaohua, twelve stars revolve around the sun and moon, defining the distinction between purity and turbidity.

Some beads are indistinct and unclear, while others shine brightly, creating a dreamlike and enchanting effect.

The incarnations of Zi Fu Jing and Qing Xiao Jing each sat on a star, having unknowingly entered the Void Refinement stage.

It was simply overlooked, overshadowed by the dramatic changes happening outside.

With the main body having already advanced to the Integration stage, the two avatars will progress smoothly to the Perfect Refinement stage, taking at most a hundred years.

Looking again at the Supreme Pure Sword Box, it reflects a scene from the beginning of the universe, from the undifferentiated Yin and Yang, the primordial Qi, to the two levels of chaos, the creation of heaven and earth.

There was no sound, no dramatic change; it simply used the most basic imagery to illustrate the process of the universe coming into being from nothing.

Anyone who witnesses this scene will be deeply shocked and speechless.

A moment later, the animation transformed into text, but it wasn't in the form of golden tadpole script, dragon patterns, or phoenix patterns; instead, it was simply common language.

The content is so detailed and comprehensive that even the most advanced cultivation techniques in the mortal realm, let alone the top-tier cultivation methods of the immortal realm, would not be written in such a straightforward and cumbersome style.

"This is the divinely bestowed sword technique, to be revealed to all sword cultivators under heaven, so that everyone may become like a dragon, and the sword may manifest in all things..."

Bai Zichen stared intently, completely captivated by its contents.

"The cultivation technique condensed from the sword box only has an image and no text. The content behind it is what I realized while watching the birth of the universe, which is why the text is in this form and style."

"Different people who witness this scene will obtain vastly different cultivation techniques. If it were a native cultivator from the Earth Immortal Realm, it might become the difficult and obscure Golden Tadpole Spirit Script."

This sword technique points directly to the perfection of the Integration Realm, which is a perfect match for the Cave Profound God-Slaying Sword Scripture. Otherwise, one would have to follow the old path of many predecessors and create one's own cultivation route, which would be too mentally and physically exhausting.

There are already few cultivation methods that can combine the elements to form a complete body, and given that everyone's path to enlightenment is different, this phenomenon is not surprising.

The 'Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot' condensed from the Supreme Pure Subtle Sword Technique is a sign of the great prosperity of the sword path. It is a gift from heaven and earth after the awakening of the Dao Foundation Sacred Treasure, and it will not have hidden dangers like some other cultivation techniques.

Furthermore, the text he gleaned from the images contained the concepts of all laws returning to their core, the mind uniting with the universe, and the sword evolving from the beginning. Whether it resonated with other sword cultivators was unknown, but for him it was absolutely a perfect fit.

"However, this image cannot be presented directly. Spiritual objects below the seventh rank cannot withstand it. Even a seventh-rank divine stone would probably crumble and break after a long time... I can only temporarily reveal the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot that I have comprehended to the world for sword cultivators to refer to."

"But if this continues, won't all the sword cultivators in the Immortal Realm follow my path and become identical in their sword paths, turning them all into disciples and their descendants?"

Bai Zichen wasn't worried that someone might use the publicly available Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot to surpass him.

The skill of swordsmanship is always judged solely by the sword itself.

If you don't have this much confidence, what's the point of practicing flying swords?

Beyond swordsmanship, his true specialty is the divine power of time, so why would he fear being outdone?

Moreover, with the Supreme Pure Sword Box in hand, he is favored by Heaven and will surely be the protagonist who opens the prelude to the great rise of the sword path.

However, in the process of the evolution of the universe, many aimless and wild ideas have emerged.

He also saw the creation and annihilation of the universe in it, and it seemed that he could fit his two swords of birth and death into it, and under the blessing of the sword pivot of all phenomena, it would burst out with unimaginable splendor.

By simply integrating and applying these principles, one can gradually replace the old fundamental techniques with the new ones.

What truly deserves our attention is the long river of time that helped him successfully advance to the Integration Realm and establish his dual Immortal Foundations—who orchestrated this contingency plan?

Throughout history, no one but the Heavenly Emperor has ever been able to perform such an act as cutting through the river of time.

A true immortal of the Mahayana path would never do anything pointless; even the flags he casually drops have profound meaning.

He had so many connections with the Heavenly Emperor that even he himself felt something was amiss without anyone pointing it out.

"My fate is such that one should not believe in past lives and has no hope for the future. The Three Lives Mirror can indeed not reflect it. The more you talk about it, the more it fits the legend of the body undergoing tribulations... A Mahayana practitioner wants to take your body as a vessel for your return. How can a mere ant that has merged with another body refuse?"

Bai Zichen remained silent for a moment, then sighed inwardly, his joy at advancing to the Integration Realm being greatly diminished.

The more outstanding one's cultivation, the more one benefits the Heavenly Emperor, and the more one attracts Him to choose this body.

If the conjecture is true, this is not an opponent that could be defeated in the past given time.

Even the mysterious Dao body upon which he stands is most likely derived from the Heavenly Emperor.

"It is impossible to surpass a Mahayana True Immortal, but it is somewhat feasible to contend with one or two... The speed of the Dao Court's expansion in that era depended on the efficiency of the Heavenly Emperor in killing the powerful figures entrenched in various places."

"Besides the most famous innate gods who slowed Him down, there were also countless ancient beasts and magical star beasts that had fled to the extremes of the universe. These were all targets that even the Heavenly Emperor was unwilling to entangle with. To win was simple, but to completely annihilate Him would take tens of thousands of years."

"At least you have to reach the level of the five human pieces before you're qualified to stand on the chessboard and become the largest piece!"

Whether for self-preservation or for pursuing the Great Dao, the Heavenly Emperor is an inescapable hurdle.

The Great Dao of Time currently appears incomparably powerful, making cross-level combat as easy as drinking tea or eating rice, and all supernatural powers and techniques are as fragile as paper in front of it.

But this is destined to be a road that ends in a dead end, because the Heavenly Emperor stands there, occupying the position.

Unless one possesses a level of control over the Great Dao that surpasses that of a Mahayana True Immortal, there is never any possibility of taking that step.

"Let's not talk about these things. First, let's familiarize ourselves with the Integration Realm and rebuild Rotten Axe Mountain... With my current strength, I can go to the Earth Immortal Realm. It's time to unveil some of the mysteries."

After Bai Zichen left Shaohua Cave, most of the already few familiar faces on the island disappeared.

The Jade Rabbit, only at the early stage of the fifth rank, was lively and energetic, leading a group of surviving disciples to set up a celebratory ceremony on the island.

However, under combined attacks, there is not much difference between the peak of the Void Refinement stage and the early stage of the Core Formation stage.

The latter might even have a higher survival rate, as the former's cultivation level is likely to attract the attention of a Nascent Soul cultivator, who could then deliver a follow-up attack.

"Your Majesty's time has merged with the Dao, your might shakes the nine realms, your immortal fortune flourishes, and your Great Dao remains evergreen!"

The Jade Rabbit was directing its disciples to rebuild the halls, reorganize the herb garden, and arrange the scene of the newly merged beings according to the etiquette of the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Suddenly, he felt someone above him. Realizing it was his master, he hurriedly knelt down.

Compared to the other disciples, the Jade Rabbit, who came from the lower realm, knew that Bai Zichen was not some Nascent Soul cultivator who had recovered from his injuries.

Rather, it was less than a thousand years since his ascension, and he had completed a journey that 99% of cultivators could never reach in their lifetime.

In just a few years, even at the Nascent Soul stage, this speed of breakthrough is not slow.

No matter how outstanding one's innate talent, how extraordinary one's bloodline, or how strong one's fortune, one should not break through realms repeatedly, shattering the ironclad rules of cultivation accumulated over countless years.

The jade rabbit dared not look closely, only sensing that its master's temperament had changed again, becoming detached and seemingly present yet absent from sight.

Now that he has just achieved the Fusion Realm and defeated a powerful enemy, the glorious path is already in front of him, and he may even have the opportunity to grow into an existence at the level of the Demon Ancestor.

Even the most respectful attitude is insufficient to demonstrate the host's nobility.

“I will select thirty disciples to come to the pool to listen to my lecture and bestow upon them divine seeds… I will also clear out a flat mountain peak where I will inscribe the Sword Manual. Anyone with a heart for the Way of the Sword can copy and study it, regardless of their status.”

The Rotten Axe Mountain was in dire need of reconstruction, but fortunately, the spirits and deities of the mountain quickly replenished the core forces.

After this battle, Bai Zichen became famous overseas, and he had no shortage of cultivators from all walks of life coming to join him.

"This servant understands. We will select all the disciples on the island who have the talent for swordsmanship and see if they have this opportunity."

The Jade Rabbit was well aware that its master was a master swordsman, and imagined that he was choosing a successor for his swordsmanship.

"It doesn't matter where you come from or what your status is, do you understand?"

Bai Zichen knew that the rabbit spirit had misunderstood. No one could have imagined that such a peerless sword technique, which leads directly to the perfection of the fusion realm, would be unconditionally opened to the public.

"Also, hang up the Nine Yang Divine Fire Mirror and prepare enough immortal crystals. Those who come to learn the sword technique can use this mirror to compare themselves and deduce the most suitable route."

"Ah...Yes, Your Majesty, I'll take care of it right away."

The jade rabbit opened its mouth wide. Had its master gone mad? Giving away a cultivation technique for free and still having to spend immortal crystals to do it.

However, he immediately realized that this was an order from a top-tier Nascent Soul sword cultivator in the Earthly Immortal Realm. No matter how unreasonable or absurd the request was, it should be completed unconditionally and without any compromise. How could he allow others to question it?

"If any fellow Daoists come to visit, tell them that I need to consolidate my cultivation realm and ask them to stay in the Immortal Realm so that I can return the visit in the future."

Before they can ascertain the truth, the leaders of various factions may not personally visit, but a valuable congratulatory gift is indispensable.

Especially the Wulonghai family, it is estimated that they will all be present in person.

Shao Yang made thorough preparations, attempting to end the war in one fell swoop, but in the end, he himself became entangled in it.

To die so thoroughly, with both body and soul annihilated, is the most desperate way to die for a fused being.

How could I feel at ease without paying a visit to get acquainted with such a powerful neighbor and building a closer relationship?

"Understood. This servant will make a clear record and find out who dared to disrespect their master. We'll deal with them slowly later."

The Jade Rabbit patted its chest and took on the task.

……

A figure descended from the sky, taking the initiative to lower his escape light a hundred miles away from Rotten Axe Mountain, revealing a handsome face, a cloud-shaped crown on his head, and a water-colored robe.

"Is this the legendary Sword Mountain, with the inscription 'Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot' carved on it?"

Qingyuan Zhenjun glanced into the distance. The mountain peaks rose thousands of feet high, and the characters on them were all exquisite, imbued with a restrained sword intent that could be felt even from a hundred miles away.

A swarm of people, like ants, filled the mountain peaks, copying sword techniques using various implements.

Many cultivators watched while gesticulating wildly and shouting, as if they had suddenly gained enlightenment and entered into deep meditation.

The master of Rotten Axe Mountain killed Shao Yang of Four-Looking Island and officially established the title of Sword Lord of Time. He also opened up a universal sword technique, which anyone with a heart for the sword could learn from without any conditions.

Initially, few people paid attention, but as the first group of people who tried it were not rejected, they discovered that the profound spirit of the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot surpassed any other sword technique in the world.

Moreover, the Sword Master of Time held nothing back, presenting everything from beginner to perfect integration.

The news caused a frenzy among the cultivators of the Five Dragons Sea, and spread rapidly.

Even the direct descendants of a major lineage must undergo numerous trials to receive the fundamental teachings, and even after passing these trials, only a portion of them will be granted.

It's even questionable whether the various factions in the Five Dragons Sea possess cultivation techniques capable of reaching the Perfect Integration stage.

Many cultivators were initially skeptical, wondering if there was a conspiracy or trap involved. Only a few independent cultivators without any background dared to try it.

The results showed that as long as one is sincere in the way of the sword, regardless of one's aptitude or innate talent, one can enter the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot.

A cultivator who had reached the peak of the Void Refinement stage also switched to this method and verified that the sword technique was genuine and true at least up to the Body Integration stage, and that its exquisite and mysterious nature was ten times better than his previous techniques.

As for the realms beyond that, they are beyond his comprehension and discussion.

From then on, the number of cultivators rushing to Rotten Axe Mountain every day was so great that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that their light could blot out the sky.

Many of the disciples inside were from major sects and factions, yet they couldn't resist the temptation.

Several months have passed and the situation has eased slightly, but the news is still spreading and people are coming in droves from even more distant areas.

Many people, after mastering the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot, were unwilling to leave and wanted to become disciples of Rotten Axe Mountain.

Unaccepted, they settled on a nearby island so they could easily visit the Sword Mountain anytime.

Qingyuan Daojun was not a cultivator from the Five Dragon Sea, but the matter of the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot had caused too much of a stir, alarming this second-in-command of the Five Ships Alliance.

They traveled millions of miles, crossing several seas, to come here specifically.

"Whether the direct path to the Perfected Integration Realm is true or not is unknown, but the idea of ​​advancing to the Integration Realm is definitely feasible... What is the purpose of this person doing this, that he would be willing to make such a sect-level sword technique public to the world?"

As he calculated with his fingers, Daoist Qingyuan was horrified; the rumors were not inaccurate and were even more serious.

"If this continues, how will other forces in the Six Blessings Immortal Realm recruit disciples and select followers? They will all come to learn this Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot... In less than a thousand years, the sword technique will sweep the entire realm, and except for a few other techniques, the rest will have no reason to exist."

The Five Ships Alliance was originally a merchant alliance formed by five close friends, and now it has monopolized more than 70% of the trade between the Six Blessings Immortal Realm and the outside world.

Qingyuan Daojun was one of the few fusion beings who had a fondness for business acumen. He had a unique perspective and, in his surprise, he thought of the terrifying consequences that would result from the rampant spread of the Myriad Manifestations Sword Pivot.

It's like a business alliance controlling absolute upstream resources; what chance do other companies have?
