Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2949: Manifestation of the Ways

“Shiguang, you’ve come.” The ancestral elder of the right looked at the young man in white, and an amiable smile appeared on his face.

However, his smile vanished very quickly. He gradually became stern as he solemnly said, “Shiguang, I’ll spare you the details. You know about everything you need to know about. Currently, the Grand Prime who obtained the Origin of Ways is hiding in the Spirits’ World. The various people our three clans sent in have yet to find any clues even until now.”

“You grasp the Laws of Time, so I hope you can enter the Spirits’ World and do everything you can to find the Origin of Ways.”

“It’s been so long, yet you still haven’t found that person? Ancestral elder, are you certain they’re still in the Spirits’ World?” Lei Shiguang ruminated with a frown.

“I’ve been watching this place in person, carrying out the most thorough search through every single person that comes out of the Spirits’ World regardless of their strength. As a result, I’m confident that the people who obtained the Origin of Ways are still in the Spirits’ World,” the ancestral elder of the right said in guarantee.

“That’s good then. Please don’t worry, ancestral elder. I’ll definitely do all that I can.” Lei Shiguang was solemn. He clearly understood the significance of this matter too.

“Yes. I don’t have to worry so much with you taking part. Go and come back soon.”

Lei Shiguang nodded before glancing at a meteor that hovered in the distance without moving. Mixed emotions flickered through his eyes. Then he turned around and entered the passageway without looking back.

The bare-chested Sacred Lord of Guarding Energy sat on the meteor that Lei Shiguang had stared at. He was only wearing a pair of shorts. An exquisite tea set was placed before him, just sitting there alone and enjoying the tea leisurely.

“I didn’t think the Lightning God clan would even call Lei Shiguang. This Lei Shiguang is a peak expert who possesses both the Laws of Lightning and the Laws of Time. Not only is he extremely powerful, but he even possesses the ability to turn back time and trace back to the past with his Laws of Time. If some unskilled Grand Primes were to be matched up against Lei Shiguang, then even if they erased all traces and leads, Lei Shiguang can still uncover them with ease.”

“Since the Lightning God clan has sent in Lei Shiguang, that means they still haven’t found the Origin of Ways, but from how urgently they require the Origin of Ways, it basically confirms the rumour. The Saint Monarch of the Lightning God clan has probably sustained extremely severe injuries, and it’s extremely difficult for him to recover from his wounds.” The Sacred Lord of Guarding Energy enjoyed his tea leisurely as he paid attention to the situation near the passageway. No matter what, he only seemed like he was taking pleasure in the Lightning God clan’s misfortune.

“Lightning Saint Monarch, I’ve suddenly become rather eager to find out whether you can survive this or not. However, the current Lightning God clan only possesses you as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime. If you can’t hold on and end up collapsing, then the Lightning God clan will only be a shell of an archaean clan.”

“By then, the eight archaean clans of the Saints’ World will become seven.”

……

On a certain nameless planet enveloped by the power of the Spiritsages’ ancestral artifact, the entire place suddenly began to shake violently. Terrifying cracks rapidly spread across the surface of the planet like huge spiderwebs, stretching across the entire place.

Very soon, the surface of the colossal planet became riddled with countless cracks.

From above, it seemed like it had suddenly become a vase on the brink of shattering, where it would collapse from the slightest touch.

An indescribably terrifying power had suddenly enveloped the planet. If even a hint of this terrifying power leaked out, it would be enough to easily destroy this planet.

With the appearance of the power, the empty space suddenly became filled with inscriptions. These inscriptions came in all sorts of shapes and sizes and were densely-packed. There were so many of them that they filled the entire region.

Every single inscription contained the paramount power of ways as if they recorded the deepest secrets of the world. As the countless inscriptions flickered and intermingled, they seemed to be hiding the secrets that the world operated on.

They were the inscriptions of ways!

These creations completely condensed from the ways of the world and the Laws of Time were currently manifesting in the world in a different way!

With their appearance, the surroundings seemed to sing, like great booming bells echoing through the world. It was enough to shake the souls of people, yet it was also like the singing of heavenly maidens, as beautiful as the sounds of nature.

This was the sound of the ways. The ways were singing!

At this moment, the supreme ways hidden in the deepest layer of the world seemed to be uncovered by someone. They directly manifested in the clearest way possible.

“The manifestation of the ways. This is the manifestation of the ways. Senior Wind has succeeded! Senior Wind has succeeded! He’s really done it! He’s really succeeded!” Shen Jian leapt up in joy. Because he was too excited, his face was completely red.

He knew that from this moment onwards, the Spiritsages finally possessed a Grand Exalt.

He had never been to the Spiritsage clan, but he had learnt enough about them from the Wind Venerable. He knew that ever since the Spiritsages left the Spirits’ World, they had never birthed another Grand Exalt.

Possessing a Grand Exalt was something the Spiritsages had been looking forward to for who knew how many generations. Today, the Grand Exalt that the countless ancestors of the Spiritsages and their clansmen on all levels had been looking forward to was finally born!

Moreover, the care and concern the Wind Venerable had shown towards Shen Jian had made Shen Jian develop a sense of eagerness and belonging towards this clan he had never come into contact with long ago.

As a result, the Wind Venerable’s successful breakthrough and the incoming age of glory for the Spiritsages left Shen Jian overwhelmed with excitement.

“The ways of the world have never manifested so clearly before. This is the best opportunity for comprehension. Don’t miss out on it.” Jian Chen, who had been recovering his chaotic essence blood, opened his eyes too. He immediately reminded Shen Jian and Sacredfeather before quickly dismissing his thoughts and completely submerging himself in the comprehension of the ways.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for comprehension. The results it could produce far exceeded the fortune jade.

However, this clearly could not last for too long. Once the Wind Venerable completed everything, the manifesting ways of the world would hide away once more, so they could not even afford to waste a second.

With that, Sacredfeather and Shen Jian composed their minds quickly before submerging themselves in comprehension too.

Jian Chen had already devoted all of his attention to comprehending the laws. He had completely forgotten about his own existence, but what he comprehended was still the Way of the Sword.

Under this state, his accomplishments and knowledge over the Way of the Sword as well as his grasp over the ways increased at an unbelievable rate. It increased so quickly that it was only second to when he ingested the Fruit of Nurturing Ways in the Darkstar World.

Of course, this was all due to Jian Chen’s talent for comprehension. Jian Chen’s talent for comprehension could be described as rare and exceptional. Otherwise, he never would have been able to reach his current realm of cultivation at such a young age.

There were other factors and reasons for his success, but once a cultivator reached Godhood, then they would set off on this ditch-ridden path of comprehending the laws and grasping the ways.

When it came to comprehending the ways, there was no shortcut. If your talent for comprehension was limited, then even if you had access to a fruit of ways like the Fruit of Nurturing Ways, it could not increase your comprehension even by the slightest.

All heavenly resources and treasures beneficial to comprehending the ways were only for clearing away the mist and allowing you to see the ways more clearly and more carefully. Benefiting from them would still completely depend on yourself.
