Legend of Swordsman

In the original planet, deep within the mountains, Jian Wushuang and Hu Qing arrived at a cave even more secluded than the previous canyon.

“Brother Wushuang, let’s part ways here,” Hu Qing said with a gentle smile, his hands clasped together.

“We’ll meet again on the mainland,” Jian Wushuang nodded. And so, the two of them parted ways.

It was a separation planned from the beginning. Strong individuals were always lonely. Jian Wushuang followed the path of the Ultimate Sword Dao, the way of killing, while Hu Qing pursued the path of meditation and enlightenment. Different paths could not be forced to merge.

In truth, Jian Wushuang wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble. Hu Qing harbored many secrets, intricately tied to the Qishen Temple.

“Farewell!” Jian Wushuang bid farewell, watching Hu Qing’s figure disappear into the horizon. Then, he returned to the cave.

He set up a simple barrier around the cave, allowing him to sense everything within a radius of a million miles. He wouldn’t stay here for long. The Qishen Temple was dangerous, but it also offered tremendous opportunities.

Especially now, after reaching the fourth level of the Extreme Dao and mastering the ability to devour everything with his Thought power, he needed to keep fighting.

During this brief respite, his priority was to refine the Eye of the Beast God. According to God-Emperor MO Long, the Eye of the Beast God was a relic his father had found in the depths of the River of Time, in the remnants of an ancient battlefield. It was called the Eye of the Beast God because the crystal resembled an eye and could summon an ancient beast god.

At that time, MO Long’s father thought he had found a great treasure, but unfortunately, after refining it, the Eye of the Beast God was not as powerful as he had imagined.

It wasn’t of much use to the Emperor, but the power of this ancient treasure was tremendous. It could enhance the divine bodies of ordinary beings tenfold.

Apart from practicing powerful martial arts techniques, enhancing the strength of a divine body was incredibly difficult. However, this artifact could enhance the Grand Yan Immortal’s divine body.

MO Long’s father believed this item was extraordinary and bestowed it upon MO Long.

Indeed, the artifact was powerful. Its effect on the Grand Yan Immortal was perfect, stronger than any innate treasure.

Jian Wushuang sat cross-legged on a flat stone bed, his forehead constantly shimmering as the Eye of the Beast God merged with him.

Although he wasn’t a Special Life Form, his divine body was more robust than that of ordinary Special Life Forms.

At least within the Great Si Region, his divine body could be considered top-notch.

However, in the entire Original Universe, his divine body’s strength was quite ordinary.

Take, for example, the Special Life Forms under the command of Chishui; each one possessed a divine body strength thousands of times greater than his.

God -Emperor MO Long awakened the power of his bloodline because his father was the Emperor. His divine body erupted with 500 times the power. But if you added the tenfold amplification from the Eye of the Beast God, he had a divine body strength of 5,000 times.

5,000 times was exceptionally strong among special beings. Often, it took countless epochs for a universe’s secret realm to nurture a favored one with a divine body strength of 5,000 times.

In the early epochs of the universe, there existed extraordinary beings, born with innate origin sources. These Special Life Forms, nurtured in exceptional realms, were no less formidable than the rare second-tier origin source experts. Some among them even rivaled the Ultimate Dao itself.

The pinnacle of the Original Universe’s potential gave birth to extraordinary beings capable of conceiving 10,000-fold divine bodies from birth. These creatures were unparalleled, and once born, they would be fiercely coveted by major powers, groomed into the prodigies of those powers.

Upon successfully merging the Dao, they became supremely powerful entities among the tier 4 Emperors.

Chishui, a wayfarer of the cosmic early days, was one such extraordinary being.

Possessing a 10,000-told divine body, his understanding ot the origin source was slightly lacking, but he was near perfection in every other aspect. His divine body seemed endless, a surplus that gave him the audacity to challenge even the peak powers.

Moreover, he was currently the most promising candidate in the Original Universe to break through to the tier 5 Emperor. In the future, he held immense potential to become a tier 5 Emperor, the most supreme existence possible.

Jian Wushuang’s divine body, though impressive during his cultivation as a Yan Immortal, paled in comparison to these extraordinary beings after his ascension to Grand Yan Immortal. Fortunately, he had acquired the Eye of the Beast God, a treasure coveted by every Grand Yan Immortal in their dreams.

This treasure directly amplified his divine body 10-fold, not merely accumulating its strength. Now, Jian Wushuang’s divine body was approximately 1,000-fold stronger. With a tenfold increase, wouldn’t it be equivalent to a 10,000-fold genetic divine body?

He could now directly rival the most powerful life forms in the universe.

Buzz!

A resonating hum echoed in his mind, signifying the complete fusion of the

Eye of the Beast God.

“Start!” Jian Wushuang suppressed his excitement.

“Double!” “Triple!”

“Fivefold…

Jian Wushuang hesitated for a moment, pushed his Eye of the Beast God to its limit, and his divine body ultimately multiplied sixfold.

“What’s going on?” Jian Wushuang wondered.

Could it be that God-Emperor MO Long had deceived him?

That shouldn’t be the case!

He uncertainly used his Eye of the Beast God again, stopping only when the shadow of the Beast God behind him solidified. This time, it still amplified sixfold.

Now his divine body had reached over 6,000 times its original strength; his every move could destroy heaven and earth.

Because of his Extreme Dao, his origin source was stronger than any other Grand Yan Immortal’s. Even if he burned his origin source, he could exhaust those controllers of Ultimate Dao.

The only lacking aspect was the strength of his divine body. Now, with a sixfold amplification, possessing 6,000 times the genetic makeup, he rivaled those Special Life Forms nurtured in high-grade worlds.

“Phew, the limits of the Eye of the Beast God are not fixed, ” Jian Wushuang concluded.

The weaker the divine body of the person, the stronger his amplification. For instance, he could increase MO Long’s strength tenfold. If it were those Special Life Forms, perhaps their increase would be only one or two times.

Indeed, the universe was fair.

For ordinary beings, especially humans, their life genes were weak, but their numbers were vast. Many in number and strong in comprehension, they were destined for greatness.

As for ordinary beings, there were countless Emperors who had achieved the Dao. The universe had tens of thousands of Emperors who had ventured out of the Original Universe over countless years.

Unsatisfied with their strength, they chose to drift in the River of Time and Space.

But Special Life Forms numbered only a few. This was the disparity.

Jian Wushuang was quite satisfied with the sixfold amplification. This way, his divine body could carry more Thought Power, significantly enhancing his overall strength.

Now, even if he was alone, he had the confidence to deal with ordinary peak-level Grand Yan Immortals. However, if he encountered someone like MO Long, he would still need to tread carefully.

Jian Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief, retracted his Eye of the Beast God, and everything returned to calm.

His divine body reverted to its original strength of one thousand times.

“I need to find a way to enhance my divine body.”

1,000 times!

That was his limit back in the Great Si Regioon. Now, in the Qishen Temple, if he had the chance, he would prioritize enhancing his divine body. His divine body was his weak point and needed improvement..
