Chapter 437: Becoming the Sword Dao Sage
Chapter 437: Becoming the Sword Dao Sage
At the age of seventy thousand years, the Freedom Immortal still achieved this realm through meditation and cultivation!
Truly remarkable!
Gu An was even more excited about Yang Xian's future. According to past experiences, transcending the Freedom Immortal Realm would bring about a deadly tribulation. He wondered if Yang Xian could overcome this challenge.
After reaching the Freedom Immortal Realm, Yang Xian returned to the Dahong World. Along the way, he met several cultivators from the Dahong World and learned about its current state. The Great Dharmaraja of Dahong had been annihilating one domain every thousand years for the past ten thousand years, and there were less than a hundred domains in the Dahong World. Now, the cultivators in the Dahong World feared the Great Dharmaraja and had begun establishing their Dao Grounds outside the world.
After parting ways with the other cultivators, Yang Xian returned alone to the Dahong World. He first went back to his birthplace, the Purple Purple Celestial Mansion, only to find that it had been destroyed along with the region by the Great Dharmaraja. His homeland was now desolate, with only a few broken walls and ruins of the Purple Purple Celestial Mansion remaining.
Gu An felt a mix of anger and concern for the Great Dharmaraja, wondering if Yang Xian would go on a killing spree to avenge the lives lost. Although the Great Dharmaraja had beings beyond the ninth heaven of the Immortal Dao, Yang Xian also possessed the ability to evolve his lifespan, even though he didn't usually use it.
The following year, Yang Xian visited the site of the former Blood Deer City, but he couldn't find Fang Meng's remains. Blood Deer City had also faded away with time, leaving no traces behind as if that memory was just a figment of his imagination.
Yang Xian decided to challenge the Great Dharmaraja!
Two years later, Yang Xian descended upon the Heavenly Huan Realm of the Great Dharmaraja. He intended to destroy the Dharmaraja's fortune and disband its influence. As a result, he faced a massive attack from the Great Dharmaraja.
During the fierce battle, Yang Xian's sword skills continued to improve, leading Gu An to suspect that he had utilized his lifespan evolution ability.
The Freedom Immortals of the Great Dharmaraja were alarmed, and ten of them joined forces to besiege Yang Xian. However, Yang Xian held his ground, using the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth as his sword, shaking the ancient and modern worlds. He even harnessed the power of the Sword Dao River.
Like the Fate River and the Time River, the Sword Dao River was a manifestation of the Great Dao, beyond the comprehension of mortal beings. It was the embodiment of the power of the Sword Dao.
With the empowerment of the Sword Dao River, Yang Xian unsheathed his sword and annihilated the physical bodies of the ten Freedom Immortals, forcing their divine souls to flee.
Just as Yang Xian was about to destroy the foundation of the Great Dharmaraja, its Ancestor descended. This being was beyond the Freedom Immortal Realm, and Yang Xian could only barely hold his own against him.
As Yang Xian was about to reach his limit, the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Ancestor arrived to assist him, ultimately sacrificing himself.
Yang Xian's anger reached its peak, and his sword heart connected with the divine, causing the heavens to tremble.
Gu An, witnessing the prompts before him, could already imagine how perilous the situation had been.
The Freedom Immortal fought against the Daozang Freedom Immortal. If not for the protection of the Sword Dao River, Yang Xian, no matter how powerful, would have perished.
However, this time was different from the past; Yang Xian had an ally. Yang Ping'an, his long-lost disciple who hadn't been seen for tens of thousands of years, arrived to help. Astonishingly, Yang Ping'an had also reached the Freedom Immortal Realm. Together, master and disciple combined their sword skills, severely injuring the Great Dharmaraja's Ancestor and forcing him to flee beyond the world.
In the end, Yang Xian and Yang Ping'an destroyed the foundation of the Great Dharmaraja. The Heavenly Dao took notice, and its grand merits descended upon them, causing their cultivation to skyrocket. Astonishingly, they both condensed their Dao Fruits.
The Daozang Freedom Immortals!
Not even a hundred thousand years old, and they were Daozang Freedom Immortals, master and disciple!
Gu An couldn't help but sigh. If he hadn't taken Yang Ping'an as his disciple back then, Yang Xian might have died at the hands of the Great Dharmaraja.
The fortune of the Great Dharmaraja dissipated, causing its followers to scatter and flee. The news spread throughout the world, and the names of the Sword Sage and the Sword Deity shook the heavens, becoming a legend in the Dahong World.
Afterward, Yang Xian chose to leave the Dahong World. He wanted to establish a new order in the universe, personally protecting all living beings. Yang Xian gave him a deep look and then embarked on a solitary journey beyond the world.
Yang Xian arrived in a broken piece of heaven and earth outside the world to cultivate. His battle with the Great Dharmaraja had given him profound insights.
Gu An witnessed consecutive prompts of his comprehension of the Great Dao of cause and effect, fortune, fate, and creation.
[At the age of one hundred and three thousand years, a mysterious being intrudes upon your Dao Ground, claiming to be the Dark Abyss Emperor and challenging you to a duel. Will you accept?]
Hmm?
Dark Abyss Emperor!
Gu An's eyes widened as he read those three words, instantly becoming alert.
However, he was unsure if Yang Xian's era was in the past or the future, so he couldn't gauge the Dark Abyss Emperor's cultivation.
Let's decline for now.
I'll take care of him myself later!
Gu An thought to himself.
You chose to decline the Dark Abyss Emperor's sparring request, but he forcefully attacked. With a swift counter-strike, you annihilated his physical body. His divine soul manifested, and he fled in shock, leaving behind a harsh warning. His escape technique was so profound that you couldn't track him, and you could only stare in the direction of his departure, deep in thought.
Huh?
I won?
Victory in a single sword strike!
Gu An was overjoyed. Yang Xian was far superior to Lu Han, Xiao Shengtian, and Chu Lumeng.
Unfortunately, the Dark Abyss Emperor escaped.
From this life, it seems he was definitely hunting down Yang Xian's reincarnation.
Why is this happening? What grudges do they have that the Dark Abyss Emperor relentlessly pursues his reincarnated body?
Gu An couldn't understand, and he began to anticipate Yang Xian's next encounter with the Dark Abyss Emperor.
After enduring the Dark Abyss Emperor's attack, Yang Xian should have achieved an even higher realm than the Extreme Realm, right?
After the Dark Abyss Emperor's escape, Yang Xian cultivated for a thousand years, then ventured deeper into the universe. He entered the Annihilation Domain, where he met many extraordinary individuals, just by their names alone.
Female cultivators at the Dao Fruit Realm still wanted to become his Dao companion, but Gu An helped him refuse.
At 320,000 years old, Yang Xian achieved the Primordial Tao Freedom Realm Perfect. He maintained his chivalrous spirit of saving the suffering in the universe, spreading his name even further, earning him a new title.
Sword Dao Sage!
At 327,134 years old, as you were teaching the younger generation of various sects in the universe about the Sword Dao, the Dark Abyss Emperor suddenly attacked, intending to annihilate your entire Dao Ground. You wielded the Stellar Sword, gathering the sword intent of countless stars to form the Sword Dao Holy Net, which enveloped the Dark Abyss Emperor, annihilating him. However, you didn't receive a prompt to seize his lifespan, so you concluded that he was still alive.
This guy is really hard to kill!
Gu An gritted his teeth.
Keep going!
At 350,000 years old, Yang Xian wanted to explore the vastness of the universe and continued his journey.
In the end, he arrived at the Boundary Gate!
Gu An inwardly exclaimed that it was not good, but there was no choice.
At 350,008 years old, you reached the Boundary Gate. As you immersed yourself in the Dao essence of the gate, a figure emerged from within and directly attacked you, obliterating your physical body. Your sword intent barely protected your divine soul, but the attacker struck again, annihilating your soul.
You died at the hands of the Sky Spirit Deity.
Gu An's face darkened.
He knew this would happen!
The Dark Abyss Emperor was an insurmountable obstacle, and now, after barely enduring him, the Sky Spirit Deity had become his new hurdle.
How foolish, Yang Xian. Why must you be so curious? If you didn't go, wouldn't you have avoided death?
Gu An vanished from the chair and appeared in the universe, landing on a meteorite. He activated the Lifespan Barrier and received Yang Xian's life memories.
Experiencing Yang Xian's life firsthand made it even more stirring.
Incredibly, Yang Xian never used his lifespan evolution throughout his life, and although Gu An couldn't see Yang Xian's prompts, Yang Xian's Sword Dao and cultivation didn't advance rapidly within an hour, except for when he obtained the Heavenly Dao Merit.
Moreover, Yang Xian only exterminated less than a hundred lives throughout his life.
What a formidable will!
Fang Meng's death saddened Yang Xian, and Gu An empathized deeply.
The destruction of the Purple Purple Celestial Mansion and the fall of the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Ancestor also pained Gu An, but it wouldn't dampen his spirit.
Gu An focused on Yang Xian's two encounters with the Dark Abyss Emperor. The Dark Abyss Emperor was shrouded in mystery, always appearing with his physical body surrounded by black energy, preventing others from seeing his true form.
Based on the battle, the Dark Abyss Emperor was no match for Yang Xian.
However, Yang Xian was no match for the Sky Spirit Deity.
It's worth mentioning that Yang Xian left behind something before his death, which made Gu An anticipate what he might find.
He wondered if he would ever come across those remnants.
Here it comes, here it comes~
