Sword Rises in the Blue Lagoon, Why Are All the Sword Cultivation Families Older Than Old Six?

Inside the Nine Heavens Hall, Ye Xuan sat high on the main seat, with Ling Kong standing beside him. The nine individuals from 401 to 409 were arrayed on either side. 301, guarding the entrance, led the Sword Sect members into the hall. As soon as they entered, Ye Xuan opened the system panel.

Sword Wu Gou: Late stage Heavenly Emperor, Loyalty 99.

Sword Wu Ming: Late stage Heavenly Emperor, Loyalty 98.

Sword Wu Hen: Late stage Heavenly Emperor, Loyalty 98.

…

The remaining ten people were all middle stage Heavenly Emperors, with loyalty also above 98. The loyalty of the last one, Sword Xu, was surprisingly 100.

The group arrived below Ye Xuan, and 301 said, "Clan Leader, the people have arrived."

Ye Xuan nodded without speaking. The three leading figures below scanned the people above with their divine senses. Apart from Ling Kong beside Ye Xuan, who was at the Great Emperor peak, they couldn't see through anyone else. Their auras were like the sea, making it impossible to discern their cultivation levels. Their gazes landed on the incomplete jade pendant at Ye Xuan's waist, and their eyes became firm. They immediately cupped their hands and half-knelt, saying in unison, "Sword Pavilion Master (Elder) greets Clan Leader!"

"Rise and speak!" Ye Xuan said softly.

"Yes, Clan Leader!" the group replied.

Ye Xuan looked at the group, who still seemed somewhat restrained. Sword Wu Gou and the others thought, 'How could they not be restrained? Who are these people above? We can't see through the cultivation of a single one of them. They could probably wipe out all of us in one move.'

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "There's no need to be restrained. It's truly not easy for Sword Pavilion to have reached this day, and I am grateful for Sword Pavilion's unwavering loyalty to my Ye family."

Upon hearing these words, the loyalty of the Sword Pavilion members below increased by another point. Sword Wu Gou said, "Our Sword Pavilion will continue to follow the Ye family and fight for the Ye family in the heavens."

Only they had received the orally transmitted history from their ancestors, detailing just how powerful the Ye family was at its peak.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for the influence of your power radiating across fifty-six states of the Eastern Region, gaining 5.6 million points."

Ye Xuan didn't have time to check the system. He looked at the people below and said, "Very good. In this life, we will fulfill the unfulfilled wishes of our ancestors. I, Ye Xuan, the current Clan Leader of the Ye family, swear here in the name of our ancestors that I will lead you to destroy our enemies, pacify the forbidden zones, and use their blood to comfort the heroic souls of our ancestors.

In this life, I will ultimately lead you to embark on the path of immortality, break open the gate to immortality, and ascend to the Immortal Realm!"

These words instantly ignited the minds of everyone present, and they shouted in unison, "Destroy our enemies, pacify the forbidden zones, embark on the path of immortality, break open the gate to immortality…"

Ye Xuan extended a hand and pressed down, and the crowd immediately quieted down.

Ye Xuan slowly said, "Tell me about the current situation in the Profound Heaven Realm. I need to make arrangements for the next hundred years."

Sword Wu Gou said, "Clan Leader, without a doubt, the weakest region in today's Profound Heaven Realm is the Eastern Region because the laws of heaven and earth were incomplete before, making it difficult to break through to the Ancient Emperor realm. The other four regions are similar, with the Southern and Central Regions being slightly stronger.

Let's not mention the forces in the Eastern Region; basically, they all have shadows of forces from the other four regions behind them.

In the Northern Region, there are three immortal forces: Ice Profound Valley, Cold Moon Palace, and the Ice Spirit Clan.

In the Western Region, there are also three immortal forces: Little Thunderclap Temple, Bodhi Ancient Sect, and the Heavenly Demon Hall.

In the Southern Region, there are the Blazing Sun Divine Palace, Myriad Demon Valley, Vermilion Bird Emperor Clan, and the Dragon Clan of the Boundless Sea.

The situation in the Central Region is a bit complicated. There are six major forces: the Dao Sect, the leader of the Daoist school, the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty, the Qin family, Myriad Treasure Pavilion, and the Corpse Soul Sect.

Among the immortal forces, there are several peak Heavenly Emperors sitting in the open, and there may be half-immortals hidden in the shadows."

After listening, Ye Xuan said, "Is this all of your high-level combat power?"

Sword Wu Gou lowered his head with a troubled expression and said, "Yes."

"It seems your strength is still a bit low." Ye Xuan appeared to be deep in thought and opened the system shop. Everyone in the hall looked at Ye Xuan in silence as he pondered. Ye Xuan looked at the 5.6 million points above and asked in his heart, "System, can the Intermediate Cultivation Enhancement Pill directly raise a peak Heavenly Emperor to the Immortal Realm?"

"Ding, no, at most to the half-immortal realm. If you want to become an Immortal Realm, there are two methods: one is to take an Immortal-grade Experience Pill, and the second is to take a High-level Cultivation Enhancement Pill after becoming a half-immortal."

Ye Xuan asked in confusion, "Why can the Low-level Cultivation Enhancement Pill raise a Tribulation Transcension peak to the King Realm?"

"Because there is a bridge between the mortal realm and the immortal realm, which is the half-immortal realm where one comprehends the power of immortality. The half-immortal realm is vastly different from the ordinary peak Heavenly Emperor realm. In front of a powerful half-immortal, a peak Heavenly Emperor can only run for their lives; they are not on the same level at all. The gap is even greater than that between the Ancient Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor. It's not just the strength of combat power; the lifespan of a half-immortal can reach hundreds of millions of years because they have comprehended some power of immortality."

Ye Xuan originally planned to use these points to enhance the strength of his Ye family, but after thinking about it, as long as the Ye family remains hidden for a hundred years, there will be plenty of time to develop. To solve the current situation, he still had to improve the strength of the Sword Pavilion. He began to consider how to combine the Intermediate Cultivation Enhancement Pill and the Experience Pill to achieve the most cost-effective improvement.

Ye Xuan planned to have everyone take an Intermediate Cultivation Enhancement Pill, which meant three peak Heavenly Emperors and ten late-stage Heavenly Emperors. Then, each person would receive a Heavenly Emperor Experience Pill, resulting in three half-immortals and ten peak Heavenly Emperors. He had plenty of Intermediate Cultivation Enhancement Pills, which didn't require points, but the thirteen Heavenly Emperor Experience Pills would cost 1.3 million."

Ye Xuan looked at the people below and asked, "Do you all have Extreme Dao Emperor Weapons?"

Sword Wu Gou glanced at the back and said, "Three of them haven't been able to forge one due to insufficient materials."

Ye Xuan looked at Sword Wu Gou, who was standing in front, and said, "Give theirs to them!" The crowd began to wonder what Ye Xuan meant by this.

However, the three of them didn't hesitate and took out their Emperor Swords, erasing the soul imprints on them and handing them to the three behind who didn't have one.

With a wave of Ye Xuan's hand, three long swords with even greater pressure than their Emperor Swords appeared in front of them, their bodies shimmering with seven-colored light. These three swords were exactly what Ye Xuan had bought from the system shop for three million points, which really made his heart ache.

He pretended to say nonchalantly, "These are three half-immortal artifacts. They are yours now, and you can refine them at any time."

The eyes of the crowd shone with golden light, and the three said in unison, "Thank you, Clan Leader!" They couldn't hide their joy as they put away the half-immortal artifacts.

Ye Xuan took out two more jade bottles and said, "Here are two kinds of pills. After taking them, you can increase your cultivation without any side effects." As Ye Xuan spoke, the two jade bottles slowly floated to Sword Wu Gou.

"Remember the order of these two. Don't reverse them. Take the white jade bottle first, then the cyan jade bottle. Each of you thirteen will have both. After taking both pills, you will all increase by two minor realms. The three of Sword Wu Gou can be promoted to half-immortals."

After saying that, the thirteen people became even more excited, and their loyalty was directly maxed out.

Ye Xuan looked at the remaining 300,000 points and then at the points required for the Law Fragments. The Law Fragments of the Sword Domain Realm were divided into four stages: Entry level 5,000, Minor success 10,000, Major success 20,000, Perfection 50,000.
