Chapter 1585: Chapter 1532-1533_2 Chapter 1585: Chapter 1532-1533_2 To be known, by previously slaying so many strong ones, Cangyang had certainly left a significant reputation in the area he resided.
It could be said that in the beginning, even if strong ones discovered him to be Cangyang, they would not actively seek out and confront him head-on due to the strength he had displayed earlier.
The first round of the Myriad Laws Realm trials was a lengthy process–personal bravery was only part of the reason, but it was not the entirety, because as groups formed in the later stages, it increasingly depended on the power of the collective.
Therefore, even though Cangyang was now displaying formidable combat power, these people would not want to confront him directly, as it made no sense, and they had ample time to wait for retribution later.
This was the choice that best suited their interests and was the most rational. It was the correct answer.
However, sometimes, things aren't necessarily carried out just because they are rational or correct. Often, impulsiveness is the norm in life.
Every strong one who had advanced this far in cultivation was extremely proud; to them, everyone else was secondary.
Their rationality told them that now, facing such unbridled provocation from Cangyang, the best choice would be to leave and avoid his edge, waiting for the right moment to strike.
But enduring momentarily only made them angrier, retreating one step only made them feel more aggrieved.
These strong ones, seeing Cangyang's arrogant demeanor, couldn't help but get furious, unwilling to witness his arrogance, naturally, someone couldn't resist striking!
“So arrogant, truly a petty man achieving success!”
A strong one, seeing Cangyang's behavior, his eyes blazed with anger, and murderous intent boiled in his heart!
But merely a Cultivator from the Heterodox Alliance, not even a True Immortal Seed, merely achieving some fortune by coincidence and lucky enough to kill a bunch of trash, dared to be so arrogant? Really seeking death!
It must be said that prejudices in people's hearts aren't easily changed, even though Cangyang had slain so many opponents not long before. Still, in the eyes of some strong ones, it was merely a coincidence.
If he had known to keep a low profile, that would be one thing, but now to dare to be so overbearing, naturally someone would strike!
Boom!
The two sides immediately erupted into a ferocious battle, no trials, no reserve, their first move was a killing blow.
As strong ones clashed, there was no room for reservation. As they spent more time in the Myriad Laws Realm trials and engaged in more fights, they grew accustomed to the combat style of this world.
The previous probing habits, flashy styles were all discarded, transformed into the most straightforward and effective style, all trying to use the simplest method to slay their opponents, in order to cope with more situations.
After all, it wasn't like the old days anymore. Perhaps outside the Myriad Laws Realm, even if they encountered strong rivals, the fight between them often consisted of one-on-one, or even one-on-many wasn't anything unusual.
However, killing in the current Myriad Laws Realm was a common sight; at every moment, they might encounter an opponent, so for them, there was no absolutely safe moment. Preserving their strength and ensuring they had no period of weakness to be exploited by others was the best strategy.
Sword light dazzled across tens of miles, the vast sword Qi cut through all directions, even splitting the space itself.
“Slash!”
Cangyang uttered lightly, his Seven Kills Sword in hand, effortlessly slain the opponent.
Admittedly, the opponent's strength was among the top of the Supreme Strong, and perhaps if it was just upon entering the Myriad Laws Realm, facing such an opponent, it would bring him great trouble, killing the opponent wouldn't have been easy.
However, now it was completely different. Having seen the True Immortal Path, he had undergone unimaginable transformations, able to wield combat power many times greater than before, slaying such an opponent was effortless.
Clang!
With a flick of his wrist, the Divine Weapon Seven Kills Sword burst into a chilling light. What was once merely a common divine weapon had, after Cangyang's ten thousand years of refinement, become second to none among the top divine weapons.
After all, during those ten thousand years, Cangyang had not refined any other magical treasures, devoting all the Divine Materials to this sword that grew alongside him.
His tireless efforts were not in vain, for now the Seven Kills Sword matched his identity perfectly. Even if his own strength increased several times, the Seven Kills Sword could still match him completely.
Cangyang looked toward the others in the distance, his gaze like that of a predator, making even these Supreme Strong figures shiver.
Logically speaking, as Supreme Strong figures, they had seen everything up to this point; not just formidable Supreme Overlords, but even True Immortals had faced them.
Yet, none of those instances had caused these Supreme Strong figures to feel as they did now. Particularly when they watched this swordsman cut through the crowd, with each step and each swing, one after another warrior fell to his sword, creating a profound impact.
To think, the Supreme Strong figures who had acted moments ago, each one was mighty in strength. After all, if they were truly weak, they would not have dared to confront the fearsome Cangyang.
But here, figures who could dominate parts of the Chaos Void Myriad Heavens World, fell to no more than three strikes from this adversary, as easily as if squashing an ant.
As the saying goes, “When the rabbit dies, the fox grieves,” for they are of the same kind. Even those who are weaker than the foe are of the same breed.
Yet now, to see such kin perish so effortlessly brought such a shock that they were left trembling, unable to express their feelings.
This was a massacre: one man slaughtering countless Supreme Strong figures effortlessly; resistance was not only futile but meaningless.
This was completely different from a True Immortal's effortless obliteration; it was an entirely different visual impact.
What they didn't know was the terror of the Path of Seven Kills, a fearful killing intent that might have seemed mild at first, but grew over time. With each opponent slain, the momentum accrued, and the force built upon itself in a way that its profound impact was indescribable.
At this moment, it was truly as if “the time had come for Heaven and Earth to lend their strength,” making Cangyang feel as though he was imbued with a Heavenly Mandate, an unstoppable force leaving countless bodies in his wake.
“A ten-thousand-year cultivation has now blossomed, bringing today's glory!” Pei Xuanjing observed everything that was happening in the Myriad Laws Realm.
He saw clearly the transformation that had occurred within Cangyang.
Before gaining the legacy, his opponent could have been considered above average, but after acquiring the inheritance, he had become one of the top figures in the Myriad Laws Realm.
This was partly due to Pei Xuanjing's intervention, but also due to his own efforts, a classic case of building potential and unleashing it at the right moment.
Perhaps it was truly a continuation of mentorship; his inferences derived from his knowledge of the former Seven Kills Sword Master completely matched the other.
As for being able to shape such a powerful figure, Pei Xuanjing was pleased, for he saw a trace of an old acquaintance in Cangyang.
“I hope you do not squander this legacy, and may you propagate your master's will greatly, letting the strong across Heaven and Earth know that such an unmatched swordsman once existed,” Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.
By passing on this legacy, he also resolved a slight distraction within himself, no longer entangled by extraneous matters.
At Pei Xuanjing's current level, sometimes it was not a matter of wanting to avoid things, but because those very things might, albeit slightly affect his cultivation, would impact others much more significantly.
At such a grand era, even a speck of dust on an individual feels as heavy as a mountain. With Pei Xuanjing's current realm and strength, not everything associated with him turned out to be beneficial. Instead, if there were too many ties, the other party might not endure the tremendous karma, representing an unbearable burden for them.
