Chapter 1: Crossing into Another World

  The cave was pitch black, but for a martial artist who had reached the realm of Ling Shi and could see in the dark, this wasn't a problem.

  Cang Ye didn't know exactly how far he had walked, but according to his estimate, this distance was at least two or three miles.

  "Who exactly built this tunnel?"

  Soon, the Sword Emperor explained the reason to Cang Ye.

  Originally, the Sword Emperor lived here, not because he liked the scenery, nor was it because there were any memorable things here, mainly because of this stone cave in the backyard.

  The origin of the stone cave is unknown, and it is said that the ancestor of the Tianjian Emperor's lineage discovered the uniqueness of this place and settled here.

  "After you enter that stone gate, you will feel an endless tearing force. Those powers are not acting on your body, but directly reaching your soul! When you resist those pulling forces, all the contents about swordsmanship you have cultivated in this life will appear in your mind. At this time, what you need to do is to make these contents your own, take the essence and discard the dross, merge them into one sword. This sword is the sword of your destiny, it's the divine sword that belongs to you! As your cultivation deepens, your swordsmanship will become more perfect, and its power will also become greater. In other words, this sword is a growing sword style!"

  Cang Ye was shocked, never expecting that the vastness of heaven and earth still held such secrets. A sword style that could grow, a strange cave that could help people condense their sword style... truly, in this great world, there's nothing strange that doesn't exist!

  No one would have been shocked by the dark night, because when I first heard Master say it, wasn't it like that?

  "When your sword style is complete, countless rules about the way of the sword will suddenly appear and merge into your mind, helping you to further enhance the power of this sword. This is also the most magical place in this land. Although my school has few people, as long as they are present in the world, there are hardly any enemies who can match them, relying on the strange aura of this cave!"

  "The longer you persist in the cave, the more time you will save later and the greater your gains will be! However, don't be too greedy. If you exceed the limit of your soul and haven't come out yet, then at best your soul will split and you'll become a madman, or at worst your three souls and seven spirits will disappear directly, and you won't even be able to enter reincarnation!"

  He nodded and said he knew.

  After walking for a while, the two finally arrived in front of the stone gate. Looking at this ancient stone gate in front of them, who would have thought that behind it was such a magical place?

  "Remember, never be overconfident, but also don't give up too quickly. Once you fail this time, you won't have a next chance because entering here for the second time will have no effect at all."

  "Master Uncle, I remember." He nodded seriously, knowing that this was not only related to his future achievements but also decided his own life.

  His entire body was at its peak, with his vital energy and spirit elevated to the extreme. He took a pill that Di Tian Jian Huang handed over, which could replace a month's worth of food and spiritual energy, and slowly pushed open the mysterious large door...

  As he watched Cang Ye's figure disappear into the cave entrance, Du Tian Jian's heart also gradually lifted.

  "How far can he actually go?"

  As soon as he entered the cave, he felt a boundless and overwhelming force surging towards him. His heart tightened, Cang Ye knew that his cultivation had begun. Before he could take in his surroundings, his legs folded into a cross-legged sitting position.

  What the Sword Emperor said was right, that pulling force directly acts on the soul. Feeling the endless pulling force, a scene after another of the sword intent he saw in the Transmission Hall appeared in Cang Ye's mind.

  "The Cang Hai Sword Spectrum", "The Bi Shui True Solution", "The Ding Luan Cang Jian Jue" ... one by one, the sword manuals kept appearing in his mind. Cang Ye discovered that when he looked at these sword manuals before, although he had mentally rehearsed them once, he had missed a lot of details. Now, re-examining them again, he was able to fill in all the gaps and understand everything that he hadn't grasped before.

  What a wonderful cave!

  It was unknown how much time had passed, but all the swordsmanship cultivation classics in the Transmission Hall reappeared one by one. At this moment, a Heaven-ripping Great Sword suddenly appeared in his mind!

  One sword shocks the world!

  A giant sword moves between heaven and earth, fierce as a dragon, light as a swan feather. The sword's momentum is sometimes like a raging tide, sometimes like continuous rain and snow.

  This is the first move of "Reincarnation's Devoted Sword Technique"! The true meaning of using a sword like a god!

  This is truly the divine sword, compared to this great sword, his own was just more familiar, and had not even touched the true meaning of being divine!

  Gradually, Cang Ye became like a fool, and his soul gave up resisting the pulling force. And those pulling forces also disappeared strangely, leaving only him sitting there stupidly in the entire cave.

  Standing outside the cave, Duotian Jianhuang was not as entranced as Cangye. He was extremely tense at this moment, after all, such a peerless talent was something he couldn't bear to see fall.

  He felt the spiritual energy inside the cave constantly surging towards the stone gate, and the Sword Emperor knew that his cultivation had begun.

  After all, performing all the sword techniques he had ever observed also required a large amount of spiritual energy.

  However, he still had some doubts because according to what his master said before, after comparing with his own disciples, only when the swordsmanship was condensed and formed would it cause the spiritual energy inside the door to be insufficient, forcing it to absorb from the outside.

  Is it possible that you've already gathered your sword energy just by entering? How can there be such a fast principle, and even if so, how much of the law's sensory perception can be accepted at this speed.

  But after a long time, the absorption of spiritual energy did not stop, but showed signs of expansion.

  Afraid of affecting Cang Ye's cultivation, Duotian Jianhuang stepped away from here and planned to wait slowly outside the cave.

  But the more he walked, the more frightened he felt, and by the time he left the cave, this fear had turned into horror.

  What kind of earth-shocking sword technique is this, that it requires so much spiritual energy!

  Inside the cave, sitting cross-legged, Cang Ye was contemplating the divine sword. Suddenly, he discovered that the sword's style had changed! This giant sword was actually slashing towards himself across dimensions! In a state of panic, Cang Ye employed all his recent insights, but found that no matter what sword technique he used, he couldn't stop this one sword. Just as it reached his chest, it suddenly changed direction.

  Suddenly enlightened in a daze, this is exactly the second move of "Reincarnation Slashing Sword Technique", the sword path is clear!

  This is truly the ultimate swordsmanship! One sword strike, all laws are broken!

  After the sword technique is released, it doesn't need to change any sword moves at all. With just one sword thrust, it can break through all techniques. Compared to his constantly changing sword moves to break through the enemy's defense, it's not even on the same level!

  Watching the giant sword that was constantly flying towards the distance, but suddenly found that when it was about to reach the edge of the sky, it suddenly stopped.

  The dark night raised its gaze and seemed to find the giant sword being held in the hand of an infinitely tall figure. The figure was vague and formless, but it was absolutely a giant that pierced the sky!

  The giant held a sword in both hands and suddenly thrust it towards the sky, merging his body and the sword into one! The vast empty space was dulled by this mighty slash. In an instant, a boundless rift was torn open by the giant's terrifying technique of combining his body and sword! Endless fissures connected to the outer space, countless destructive air currents descended upon this world, and all things suffered unimaginable destruction! This one sword, rent heaven and earth asunder!

  Horror beyond this! Horror beyond this! Cang Ye recognized this move.

  "Reincarnation Sword Technique" Third Form: Divine Sword Unification!

  The primordial spirit merged with the sword, becoming one. With a single sword strike, the heavens and earth were destroyed! In the realm of thought, Cang Ye slowly felt the unparalleled sword intent left behind after the destruction of the world, his own sword dao realm boundary, crazily rising as if without limit...

  Just as he was practicing his third sword move, outside the stone cave.

  The Sword Emperor of the Heaven Snatcher was already unsure how many times he had been shocked recently. However, this was not his fault. Because at this moment, he felt that the spiritual energy of the entire mountain range was pouring into the stone cave.

  What on earth is this! What kind of astonishing sword technique is about to appear!

  Not just him, but also Li Tianluo and Yu Xuan who were left in the other courtyard felt the abnormality of the spiritual energy.

  When they arrived at the backyard, they only found that the Sword Emperor was muttering something there...

  Just as they were about to ask something, their faces suddenly changed again.

  How could this be, not only the entire mountain range's spiritual energy surged forth, but also seemingly, countless spiritual energies from outside the mountain rushed towards this side. What kind of thing emerged in the mountain cave that caused such a massive change in heaven and earth?!

  "Master, what's going on? Where's Ye? Didn't you take him for a trial? Where is he?" After looking around and not finding Cang Ye, Li Tian Luo became somewhat anxious. The changes in the heaven and earth were so severe here, it was better to leave first, lest something irresistible appeared at the mountain cave.

  At this time, the expression of the Sword Emperor had already eased down. After all, he was a man who had lived for hundreds of years and had experienced all sorts of storms. Although the extent to which the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered at this moment shocked him, compared to the ancient strongmen's tombs opening back then, stirring up spiritual energy, it still fell short by more than one degree.

  He pointed to the inside of the cave and said to Li Tian Luo with a bitter smile.

  "Are you looking for your disciple or are you going to wait patiently? As for what happened, you'll have to ask him when he comes out."

  "Master Shu, you're saying all these were done by Yezi?"

  "Although I don't believe these words would be uttered by a twelve-year-old kid, I have to tell you that it was indeed your precious apprentice who came up with this."

  "I'm sorry to have troubled you tonight."

  Li Tian Luo slightly bowed his head and apologetically said to Du Tian Jian.

  After these years of getting along with each other, he has already regarded Cang Ye as his own child. Since his own child is causing trouble for others, it's only natural that he should apologize to them.

  The Sword Emperor of Heaven slightly shook his head. His gaze turned back to the cave once again.

  If this is also considered troublesome, I would rather be in trouble every day!

  To be able to witness such a sword technique, this life is not in vain!

  Inside the cave, in the dark night's intention. The crack in the sky and earth slowly gathered, the giant disappeared, leaving only the giant sword still standing there. For a long time, the sky and earth did not change at all. Just when Cang Ye was puzzled, he found that the giant sword seemed to be changing slowly. From static to dynamic, from slow to fast. After observing for a long time, he could see that the giant sword was actually demonstrating a set of fist techniques! A sword striking out a set of fist techniques! Strange, how strange. At this time, he finally realized that the fist technique was still a sword technique.

  This is "Reincarnation's Devoted Sword Style" 4th form, Sword Transcends All Laws!

  Unlike the second move, which requires a single sword to break all laws, this fourth move uses swordsmanship to transform into various techniques! When facing an opponent, one sword strike can turn into a set of fist techniques while they're defending, and then transform into a palm technique. By the time the sword reaches their face, it's become a finger technique, leaving them wondering how to defend against it. The "Wheel Turning Sword Technique" has ten moves in total, but this transformation into various techniques is only the fourth move. Having surpassed the lowest three moves, one can reach a realm that even the supreme rulers of this world must look up to. As for the remaining six moves... just how terrifying will they be?
