I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Ouyang Qianjue nodded.

"The planes collided, and the portal opened. The influx of extraordinary energy did indeed cause a surge in martial arts on Earth. This gave Earth the illusion of a golden age. But this was merely water without a source. No matter how vast the energy of the endless worlds may be, it cannot change the fact that Earth's own world origin has long since dried up."

Lu Changming stood five steps away from the two of them.

The Lord of the Heavenly Fortune Palace, who governs millions of people, and the master of the eighth-order laws.

Lu Changming originally thought he was already at the top of the combat power pyramid on this planet.

But at this moment, in front of these two people, he felt like a bewildered child who had just learned to walk.

Everything had far exceeded his comprehension.

It turns out that the bloody war between alien races on Earth over the past century, and the magnificent rise of martial arts, have such secrets hidden within the vast and boundless scale of the dimensional plane.

Today has truly broadened my horizons.

Ouyang Qianjue stood with his hands behind his back.

"You know it perfectly. Those alien races that swagger around on Earth are nothing more than dregs that were swept up by the endless torrent of energy from countless worlds and squeezed into this world through the rifts created by the collision of planes."

Since the depletion of the Blue Star's origin is an irreversible objective reality, it is impossible to condense the life spark needed to break through to the tenth rank.

So how should we resolve this current situation?

Shen Tian scrutinized the old man before him.

Ouyang Qianjue is the number one swordsman in the Dragon Kingdom today.

Such an unparalleled genius, capable of shattering mountains and rivers and having reached the threshold of the tenth rank thirty years ago, would never bow down to the depleted Heavenly Dao.

They would not be content to sit idly on this wasteland and wait for their lifespan to run out.

It seemed that he had noticed Shen Tian observing him.

Ouyang Qianjue guessed what Shen Tian was thinking.

"Are you thinking that I, an old man, am really so easily content to stay here and waste my life?"

"Because I know that Senior Ouyang is by no means someone who would willingly lag behind others."

"Hahaha."

Ouyang Qianjue burst into laughter.

"You're right."

"How could I possibly give up so easily?"

"As long as there is even the slightest possibility, I will try my best."

"My polarization laws have been honed day and night for the past thirty years. If Blue Star can't give me what I want, then I'll go elsewhere to get it."

Shen Tian stood quietly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Tian's heart stirred slightly, and he asked:

"This junior is curious, since the depletion of one's source energy is a dead end, what method does Senior intend to use to break this deadlock?"

Ouyang Qianjue turned his head, his sleeves fluttering in the wind.

He didn't waste any words, only uttering four words.

"The sword opens the gates of heaven."

Lu Changming, standing some distance away, almost stopped breathing.

He could clearly sense the madness hidden behind those four words.

The sword opens the gates of heaven?

It is a grand ambition of martial arts that transcends all common sense.

A light flashed in Shen Tian's eyes.

Since killing Yuan Sha and absorbing his memories in the Black Abyss Rift, Shen Tian's vision has long surpassed the limitations of Blue Star.

Within the vast and profound memory bank of the Abyss, there is clear information about the endless world.

"Does Senior mean... to forcibly cleave the barrier between the two worlds with swordsmanship?"

Shen Tian's voice was filled with barely concealed tremor.

"Without relying on favorable timing or location, relying solely on the sword in hand, at the intersection of Blue Star and the Endless World, cleave a void rift large enough for the physical body to pass through. Cross the chaotic crystal wall, obtain the world origin of the Endless World? And use this to complete your own life leap?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Ouyang Qianjue clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes flashing with a light more dazzling than the blazing sun.

"Good lad! Truly insightful!"

"On this planet, there are probably no more than a handful of people who can understand these four words of mine. Yet you seem to understand them even better than they do."

Ouyang Qianjue stretched out his right hand and clenched it in the air.

The surrounding free-flowing power of heaven and earth instantly gathered in his palm, condensing into a semi-transparent longsword about three feet long.

This is neither a top-grade Dao weapon nor any physical object; it is merely a manifestation of energy highly compressed by the laws of polarization.

However, the moment the translucent longsword took shape, countless cracks appeared in the space within a ten-mile radius, like a mirror.

"The law of polarization is the path to compress power to its peak."

Ouyang Qianjue stared at the longsword in his hand, his tone so calm it was chilling.

"Since the upper limit of the laws is locked by this world, then I will keep forging and folding all the power before the threshold of the tenth level. For the past thirty years, I have only done this one thing."

The longsword in his hand emitted a chilling, cicada-like chirping sound.

"Sharpening the sword."

Shen Tian stared quietly at Ouyang Qianjue, his blood and qi surging uncontrollably within him.

Use thirty years to hone an unparalleled divine sword.

Going against the will of Heaven.

This unyielding spirit that defies heaven and earth, this unbridled arrogance that disregards the rules of the universe, truly embodies the heroic spirit of a peerless hero.

Shen Tian cupped his hands in a fist salute.

This bow, without a trace of pretense, was a sign of respect for a pure seeker of the Way.

"Your magnanimity is truly admirable. To break through the impasse with force and open the gates of heaven with a sword—such a grand vision is enough to leave a significant mark on the entire history of humankind."

Shen Tian slowly straightened up, his eyes also burning with fierce fighting spirit.

He possesses a primary plane and does not need to worry about the depletion of the world's origin.

His path was smoother than anyone else's.

But in Ouyang Qianjue, he saw a pure beauty of power.

Refusing to succumb to fate, they smashed this cage.

Lu Changming was panting heavily in the back, making him, the master of Tianyun Prefecture, feel like a small boat in a stormy sea.

This is no longer a topic he can interrupt at.

If this scene were to get out, it would probably shock all the top experts on the entire planet.

"There's no need for you to flatter me."

With a casual wave of his hand, Ouyang Qianjue caused the translucent longsword that had caused the space to collapse to instantly vanish into the breeze.

"This path is a fight for survival. Failure will result in a backlash from both worlds, leaving no trace of your body in the void turbulence, and even your soul will be crushed into nothingness."

With his hands behind his back, Ouyang Qianjue gazed at the sky. Beneath his otherworldly demeanor lay a resolute determination to perish at any moment.

"However, before that, I still need to clean up this mess that is the human race."

His gaze shifted from the horizon back to Shen Tian, ​​his eyes sharpening.

"You caused such a commotion in Ziji City, even killing three councilors. Those two old monsters will definitely not let this go."

Ouyang Qianjue's tone turned cold.

"The neutrality treaty of the Purple Spirit Clan is probably just a piece of waste paper now."

Shen Tian met that sharp gaze without flinching.

"What you said is right, senior."

"Given that old man's temper, it's only a matter of time before a full-scale war breaks out."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Qianjue's eyes showed not a trace of worry, but rather a hint of delight.

"Well done!"

He cheered loudly.
