The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

After several more silver-white ring-shaped sword energies, the dark mist surged, and pebbles flew everywhere. One by one, the corpses hidden deep in the mist turned into black smoke, and the experience points on the Sword Manual panel were jumping rapidly.

Experience points +8000

Experience points +15000

Experience points +8000

Experience points +8000

Experience points +15000

……

Wu You hovered in mid-air, his silver eyes scanning the area below that had already been ravaged by sword energy. After ensuring that no one had escaped, Wu You immediately set off for the nearest danger zone.

Another illusion appeared, another ring of sword energy killed enemies, and another rush to the next danger zone.

The silver-white giant shone again and again beneath the dark red sky of the deepest dark realm. Occasionally, a torchbearer would catch a glimpse of that light from afar, only glancing at it briefly before thinking to himself, "That fickle lord is at work again," and then continuing with his own tasks.

Repeat, and repeat again. Wu You relentlessly reaped experience points in this way.

After clearing a Class A danger zone, Wu You stopped.

His illusory form dissipated, and the nearly thousand-meter-tall silver-white giant slowly crumbled in the dark mist, turning into countless particles of light that drifted away.

His figure reappeared in mid-air, his black trench coat covered with a layer of fine dust, and his white hair was mixed with some gray-black dust.

His breathing was still relatively steady, but his eyes were full of exhaustion.

In the nearly ten hours that followed, he cleared five Class A danger zones and three Class B danger zones.

The density of corpses varied across the areas; some areas had a large number of corpses, while others had a sparse number. But regardless of the number, Wu You did not miss a single one.

Although the strength is greatly increased in the illusory state, and the efficiency of clearing out large areas of corpses is very high, the consumption is also extremely high.

Each burst of those ring-shaped sword energies and those countless tiny silver rays of light was drawing energy and spiritual power from Wu You's body.

After ten hours, his energy reserves had dropped to a very low level, and his mental strength had been almost completely depleted.

At this point, Wu You was exhausted and had only enough strength left to protect himself.

But equally, the gains were enormous.

Wu You turned his gaze to the Sword Manual panel.

Allocable experience points: 1402w.

More than 14 million!

After clearing out nearly half of the zombies in the danger zone near the stronghold, Wu You's distributable experience points have reached more than 14 million!

It's entirely possible to directly upgrade the Ji Beng Sword of Chapter 3 of the Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter to perfection!

Of course, that's what he did.

Allocable experience points: 1402w → 602w

The number dropped from 14 million to just over 6 million, with 8 million experience points being taken away in one go. But Wu You didn't feel bad because the taken experience points didn't disappear; instead, they turned into something else.

[Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter] (Chapter 3: Collapse of the Jade) (0/800w) → [Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter] (Chapter 3: Collapse of the Jade) (Complete)!

With eight million experience points invested, Chapter 3 of the Sword of Calamity was instantly completed to perfection!

A flood of insights rushed into Wu You's mind.

The understanding, application, and transformation of those sword intents were like the process of a seed growing into a towering tree, compressed into a few seconds, playing out simultaneously in his consciousness.

Deep within one's own consciousness.

Wu You saw the "Ji", which was the mystery of the Heavenly Dao and the Dao of the Star Pivot.

Wu You saw "collapse." It was shattering and overthrowing, a complete collapse and disintegration.

At this moment, Wu You also grasped the core of the Ji Beng Sword Intent.

The core is not in the sword, not in the hand, not in any place that can be touched.

It exists within cause and effect, within destiny, on that invisible and intangible yet undeniably existing line of cause and effect, or rather, line of destiny.

Although the Ji Beng Sword Intent sounds like a very powerful sword intent, its essence is similar to the Tianji Hengshi Sword, which is a sword intent mainly responsible for defense.

Ji represents the mysteries of the heavens and the principles of the stars; Beng represents destruction, collapse, and disintegration.

The two words together roughly mean: let those abilities or rules that try to interfere with your destiny or your cause and effect collapse on their own.

If the Tianji Hengshi Sword is a kind of physical protection, then the Jibeng Sword Intent is a more advanced and profound protection that is completely aimed at the level of cause and effect and destiny.

The Sword Intent of the Collapsed Sword consumes no resources and cannot be triggered actively.

However, if it encounters causal and fate-related abilities and rules, including those that cause damage, deduce, or interfere, it will be passively triggered.

As long as the opponent's ability or the strength of their rules does not exceed a certain range, they will be completely blocked.

If it is a harmful causal or fate-related ability or rule, it is directly exempted.

If it is a causal or fate-related ability or rule that involves deduction or intervention, simply block it.

"Protection against cause and effect and fate..." Wu You murmured, his silver eyes reflecting the word "perfect" that had appeared on the Sword Codex panel.

Although he hadn't encountered the corresponding ability before, Wu You believed that with the continuous improvement of his rank and strength, the Ji Beng Sword Intent would definitely have a place to be used.

Wu You glanced at the Sword Canon again.

Grade: IX.

It's still level nine, nothing has changed.

【Seven Tribulations Sword Chapter】(Chapter 4: Quan Ji) (0/1500w)

"Fifteen million experience points..."

"One more cleaning tomorrow should be enough," Wu You murmured.

Although mastering the Ji Beng Sword did not bring about a level increase, Wu You was not disappointed.

This trip not only raised their level to the ninth rank, but also allowed them to master two sword intents: Xuan Suo and Ji Beng.

One is a deadly move that blocks all abilities, and the other provides defense and protection at the level of cause and effect and destiny.

He was satisfied with the two kinds of sword intent, one offensive and one defensive, one proactive and one passive.

Besides, we can come back to harvest tomorrow and gain a lot of experience points.

Thinking of this, Wu You unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

He then snapped out of his reverie, took to the air, and sped off toward the stronghold.

Already exhausted, and now that it's already the second day, with the dark fog and high tide coming in a few hours, the situation is much worse.

Therefore, Wu You did not continue to collect experience points, but returned directly to the stronghold.

After walking through two teleportation portals, Wu You returned directly to his small courtyard in the real world.

The familiar stone-paved road, the familiar door.

Pushing open the door, Wu You took two steps inside and immediately spotted the little black cat lying in the middle of the cultivation room.

Wu You's gaze lingered on it for a moment, unconsciously recalling the feeling of the elevated perspective, the boundless, layered, flowing darkness, and the few pale golden threads hanging in the void like spider silk.

Then he looked away.

"Never mind, I'll try again tomorrow."

A thought flashed through my mind.

Then, without even taking a shower, Wu You went to the bedroom, collapsed onto the bed, and closed her eyes.

Almost the instant he closed his eyes, he fell into a deep sleep, exhausted.

At this moment, the little black cat, which had been keeping its eyes closed, opened them in the cultivation room.

Then, a flash of fiery gold appeared in his eyes.

"Strange, why is there no flavor at all?"

A hoarse, mature female voice came from the little black cat's body. The voice was low and carried a hint of surprise and confusion.
