Chapter 877: She\'s Just a Swordsman

Under normal circumstances, Path Creation Realm experts had a ton of lifespan, but every single Path Creation Realm expert would face a critical issue upon reaching the realm.

The issue was that progressing any further would become nearly impossible.

The Path Creation Realm experts were the ceiling of strength in all Tier Four civilizations.

In other words, the vast lifespan of Path Creation Realm experts would naturally decline.

The reason countless Path Creation Realm experts craved Eternal Crystals was that these crystals were the only known way to extend their lifespan.

Ye Guan was cultivating Lifespan Severance, as he understood that fact. Lifespan Severance would become the bane of all Path Creation Realm experts once it was strong enough.

The power of Ye Guan’s sword techniques improved along with his fleshly body. His soul and fleshly body could now withstand more power of time, allowing his sword intent to sever twenty thousand years\' worth of lifespan in one strike.

However, Ye Guan wasn\'t satisfied with that at all, and it was all because he could feel that twenty thousand years\' worth of lifespan was not his limit. He could still improve.

Additionally, a single sword strike cutting down a hundred thousand years\' worth of lifespan was a threat to Path Creation Realm experts but was not fatal at all.

He had to keep improving!

And just like that, Ye Guan began an intense training regimen, aiming to push Lifespan Severance to its absolute limit.

Meanwhile, Yi Nian continued on studying the mysterious spacetime. The more she learned about it, the more complex it became. Yi Nian was excited at the discovery, as the knowledge contained within the mysterious spacetime was beyond the Tianxing Civilization\'s knowledge base.

As soon as the people of the Tianxing Civilization were born, they were immediately forced to learn, and they had to learn a lot of things.

The Dao of Time was one of the many things Yi Nian had learned, which was why she could comprehend the mysterious spacetime.

However, she discovered that the Dao of Time and the temporal knowledge contained within the mysterious spacetime were far more profound than what the Tianxing Civilization had taught her.

The discovery filled her with immense joy.

Just then, Little Pagoda asked, "Yi Nian, how much time do you have left on your vacation?"

Yi Nian replied, "Three more months of time in the outside world. Why do you ask, Master Pagoda?"

"Nothing, just asking," replied Little Pagoda.

"Hehehe." Yi Nian giggled. "How about you come with me, Master Pagoda! We have a Mother Pagoda back at home..."

"I\'ve served three generations of a certain family and have met countless people, but..." Little Pagoda trailed off before saying, "This is the first time I met someone who understands me."

Yi Nian was speechless.

The Great Zhou had just overcome a major crisis, but the nation wasn\'t exactly weakened. On the contrary, the top experts of the Great Zhou became even stronger upon eating Ye Guan’s Dao Fruit.

To save time, Dao Jun, Ci Tian, and Prime Minister Yuan consumed the Dao Fruit within Ye Guan\'s pagoda.

Ye Guan also gifted them Eternal Crystals to aid in their cultivation.

Their cultivation and overall strength improved rapidly inside the tiny pagoda.

Ci Tian began cultivating the true Diamond Body as well, and it was all thanks to the Dao Fruit, the ancestors of the Great Zhou, and Ye Guan’s Eternal Crystals.

Ci Tian had held the front lines for far too long during that battle. He had made a great sacrifice, so he deserved a bountiful compensation.

***

An old man dressed in a colorful robe was looking down at the Imperial City of the Great Zhou from the starry skies up above.

The old man had peculiar features with half of his hair black while the other half was white.

There was a wine gourd in his hand.

The Great Zhou would probably not recognize him, but those from the Ascension World would surely know him, as he was the infamous Heavenly Ruler Demon.

In response to the Evil Dao Alliance\'s bounty, the Heavenly Ruler Demon came here, but he had yet to make any move.

The temptation of a hundred Eternal Crystals was huge, and he was indeed tempted. However, he was a very rational individual, and he could see that the Evil Dao Alliance wanted to use him as a pawn.

If that boy named Ye Guan were so easy to kill, would the Evil Dao Alliance really let someone else do it?

Thus, the Heavenly Ruler Demon had been waiting here, hoping that some fool would make the first move to test the waters and reveal the true strength of that boy named Ye Guan.

Unfortunately, no fool had stepped forward so far.

Was he supposed to leave just like this?

Naturally, he was reluctant to do so. He had already come here, so he had to earn something before leaving.

What if he simply made a move? It was not really an option.

At first, he thought about taking a risk. His plan was to sneak in and see if he could strike Ye Guan down with one blow and then escape to claim the reward.

He was confident in this plan since Ye Guan was only a full divinity expert.

Killing a mere full divinity young man would be like killing a chicken, wouldn\'t it?

When the Great Zhou revealed the Tianxing Flame, however, he completely abandoned the idea.

The Tianxing Flame! Damn it!

Clearly, the young man had some powerful backers. The Heavenly Ruler Demon assumed that Ye Guan had some backing.

A young man with such a monstrous talent would definitely have backers, but he wasn\'t really sure about the strength of Ye Guan\'s backers.

When the Great Zhou revealed the Tianxing Flame, however, he realized something...

Ye Guan\'s backers could be just a tad bit stronger than him. In other words, it wouldn\'t be a great idea to make a move.

Unfortunately, waiting was also torture.

Where were the fools? Where did all the fools go? How come there hasn\'t been anyone challenging Young Master Ye?

He had been waiting for so long that he was growing impatient.

Rumble!

Just then, a spacetime rift manifested, and a man emerged from it.

The man was wearing an ink-like robe. He stood ramrod straight as if he were a sword, and he exuded a thick killing intent capable of making just about anyone feel suffocated.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon took one look at the man and smiled, "So the Weapon Master is here."

"How come you haven\'t made a move?" asked the Weapon Master.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon stared at the Weapon Master and coolly replied, "I’m the Heavenly Ruler Demon, not the Heavenly Ruler Fool."

The Weapon Master calmly remarked, "It’s just a flame; what’s there to be afraid of?"

"Then, go!" the Heavenly Ruler Demon scolded, "Go ahead!"

"You\'re not going to go, and I\'m not going to go, either. And it seems like no is going as well," the Weapon Master said, sighing softly, "Are we just going to stand by and watch?"

The Heavenly Ruler Demon looked up at the Tianxing Flame floating in the sky above the Imperial City of the Great Zhou. On the surface, it looked like an ordinary flame, devoid of any energy, as if a gust of wind could blow it out.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon suddenly asked, "What do you think about that lick of flame? Is it real?"

The Weapon Master looked at the Tianxing Flame and suggested, "Why don’t you go up there and test it?"

"You really think you’re funny or something?" the Heavenly Ruler Demon retorted with a frown.

The Weapon Master fixed his gaze on the distant Tianxing Flame, and his eyes grew cold. "Should we take the risk and fight?"

The Heavenly Ruler Demon shook his head decisively. "No."

The Weapon Master frowned.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon explained, "If that Tianxing Flame is real, then there are two possibilities why that thing is here. It\'s either something went wrong with the flame, and it lost its power, which allowed Young Master Ye to pick it up, or someone had suppressed it—someone had suppressed the Tianxing Flame."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon’s expression grew grim. If the Tianxing Flame was being suppressed, then it would be beyond absurd.

Fight? They\'d better off surrendering immediately.

The Weapon Master hesitated briefly before asking, "That shouldn\'t be the case, right?"

"The vast expanse is vast as its name says," the Heavenly Ruler Demon said, shaking his head, "Anything is possible. Just because we can’t do it doesn’t mean that others can’t do it. Moreover, didn’t the Evil Dao Alliance say that there’s a wounded swordsman behind Young Master Ye?"

"Wait," the Heavenly Ruler Demon noticed something, and his expression darkened. "The Evil Dao Alliance is truly despicable—a despicable bunch of idiots."

The Weapon Master slightly nodded. "They want to use us as pawns."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon gazed at the Weapon Master and asked, "Are you eyeing that divine sword in his hand?"

"Everyone is eyeing that weapon," the Weapon Master replied, "I\'m just afraid that the swordsmen behind him might be too formidable; that\'s why I haven’t made a move yet."

"How about this?" the Heavenly Ruler Demon suggested, "You go test the strength of that wounded lady in a plain skirt. With your abilities, you should be able to escape even if you can\'t beat him. She can\'t kill you instantly, can she?"

The Weapon Master slightly nodded. "You have a point."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon’s heart became filled with joy, but the Weapon Master added, "But nope, I won\'t go."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon\'s expression froze.

The Weapon Master looked up at the distant Tianxing Flame and explained, "If that flame is under suppression, then she\'s strong enough to kill me instantly."

What kind of flame was the Tianxing Flame? A lick of the Tianxing Flame could easily obliterate a powerful Tier Four civilization.

And would there be few Path Creation Realm experts in a Tier Four civilization? No way, a Tier Four civilization surely had quite a few Path Creation Realm experts.

Despite that, a lick of the Tianxing Flame could effortlessly obliterate a Tier Four civilization. The Tianxing Flame was that terrifying.

What about someone capable of suppressing it...

It was unsure whether the Tianxing Flame was under suppression or not, but what if it was under suppression?

How about testing it to find out? They\'d most likely die by doing that.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon clicked his tongue. "What are we going to do here, then? Wait for them to invite us to dinner?"

The Weapon Master calmly replied, "I think there’s no rush."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon turned to look at the Weapon Master.

"There will always be a fool," replied the Weapon Master.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon was about to say something when the distant spacetime trembled. The next moment, a terrifying aura rushed out of the rift. At the same time, a peal of boisterous laughter pervaded the starry sky. "Hesitation is defeat; why are you afraid of a swordsman and a woman at that? Are we really going to allow a woman to dictate our actions? You people are a bunch of cowards! If you\'re not going, then I\'ll go!"

Swoosh!

A shadowy figure made a beeline for the distant Imperial City of the Great Zhou, moving like a bolt of lightning.

The starry sky became illusory and started disintegrating beneath the might of the oncoming individual.

In the blink of an eye, the shadowy figure crashed into the Imperial City of the Great Zhou. As soon as it entered the city, however, a streak of sword light flew toward it.

"AAAAAH!" A heart-wrenching scream echoed throughout the heavens. "Damn it, I fucked up!"

Boom!

The shadowy figure was obliterated.

When the dust cleared up, the shadowy figure was no more, and the sword light could no longer be seen as well.

The entire world fell silent at the sight.
