Legend of Swordsman

The chances of encountering a Universe God-level realm beast were extremely low; it would be quite unlucky if he did.

“Go now!”

The crystal ball displayed an image of a desolate land.

As soon as Jian Wushuang’s hand touched the crystal ball, his figure vanished from the spot.

In the next moment, he had already entered the desolate land.

Upon entry, he unleashed his full power.

The Super Ancient Transformation and the Origin Source Dao Arena simultaneously boosted his strength.

His divine power instantly doubled, reaching ninety million.

Clang!

This time, he dared not hide anything and immediately drew his Wanjie Sword.

He prepared to face the realm beasts.

Buzz!

The sky trembled.

The realm beasts, regarded as demons by outsiders, began to gather.

The statue had not deceived him; the realm beasts that emerged were indeed ugly but were only at the demigod level, with divine power around 60 million.

With a casual flick, his sword energy swept out.

In an instant, he killed the demigod-level realm beast.

With a reach of his hand, he grabbed the beast’s original core.

This was the power condensed by the demons.

The divine power within was chaotic, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators to absorb.

It required special experts to decompose it, extracting various types of power.

Among them were the powers of the Starry Sky, Spacetime, the Universe, the Beast God, and Reincarnation.

It could be said to encompass all things and worlds.

It was like a grand mix.

After obtaining the original core, Jian Wushuang was overjoyed and shouted loudly, “Senior, I got it! Quickly, teleport me out of here.”

…

About three breaths later, there was still no response.

“Hmm?” Jian Wushuang sensed a change behind him.

A mass of black fog separated from the clouds in the sky, slowly condensing.

The power surged rapidly, reaching over a billion in an instant.

Jian Wushuang’s expression changed dramatically.

“Senior, please don’t joke with me. This is a Universe God!”

He panicked.

It felt like he had been tricked.

Standing there, calling out to the heavens and the earth with no response.

Despair loomed over him.

“No, I can’t stay here!” He turned his gaze behind him, towards the long river of spacetime.

That was the boundary.

He had to return on his own.

Boom!

“Three Quake Universe!”

Although he couldn’t tear through spacetime, he had hope of escaping with his speed traversing the universe.

But just as he moved, a gigantic demonic figure appeared before him.

“Ah!”

In his panic, Jian Wushuang swung his sword directly.

Boom!

The enormous sword shadow slashed out.

But it was casually crushed by the demonic figure.

It had no effect whatsoever.

This time, Jian Wushuang was utterly desperate.

With a flip of his palm, he took out the token left by his teacher, Xuan Yi.

It was said that in case of any danger, crushing the token would save his life.

He hadn’t expected to use it at this moment.

Using it during a trial?

It would be embarrassing to admit.

He hadn’t intended to use it.

But if he didn’t use it now, he would be torn to pieces in the next moment.

“Cultivator!”

“Hmm?” Just as he was about to crush the token, the opponent spoke.

For a moment, he was bewildered.

He had never spoken with a realm beast before.

As far as he knew, their consciousness was very weak.

Or rather, very poor.

A Universe God-level realm beast being able to speak was normal.

But what could it have to say to a Universe Master like him?

Seeing an opportunity for negotiation, Jian Wushuang steadied his mind.

But he didn’t know how to respond.

After pondering for a moment, he stood firm and said in a heavy tone, “realm beast!”

The opponent called him a cultivator.

He couldn’t possibly call it senior!

That would be betraying his kind.

He would rather die standing.

“Facing me, I can’t see your fear!”

This statement was true.

Despite Jian Wushuang’s panic, he always had a trump card in his mind.

It was the token in his hand.

He had unwavering faith in his teacher Xuan Yi’s words.

If it could save his life, it would save his life.

Even against a group of Universe Gods, he had complete confidence in escaping.

“Because I’m not afraid of you at all!” Jian Wushuang raised his head, growing defiant.

This time, he was truly going to use the token. Although it was embarrassing to use it during a trial, not using it would mean his demise.

At the same time, he cursed those statues in his heart.

They had deceived him.

They had promised to send him back after killing a demigod realm beast.

Yet, after killing the demigod realm beast, they ignored him.

And now, he had the misfortune of encountering a Universe God-level realm beast.

Who could he complain to?

If he successfully returned and inherited their legacy, he would definitely smash those statues and build a latrine over them.

“Is it because of the token in your hand?”

The ugly realm beast raised its hand slightly, and the surrounding space instantly froze.

Words became reality!

Jian Wushuang frowned, his eyes flashing with light, and his mind raced as he tried to crush the token, only to find his limbs immobilized.

Jian Wushuang was already immobilized.

It wasn’t a matter of time; it was a spatial technique.

Even though he had mastered space, he was still immobilized instantly.

His opponent’s level far surpassed his own.

The token slowly floated from his palm into his opponent’s hand.

Jian Wushuang was completely dumbfounded.

He shouldn’t have hesitated.

Now, it was all over.

With the token in his opponent’s hand, he was beyond saving.

The crisis of falling had never felt so intense.

Sweat beaded on Jian Wushuang’s forehead.

Although he had faced life and death situations many times, he had never felt such despair.

The last time he confronted death head-on, even walking towards it, was in the illusion within the Mahayana Spirit Mountain, where he faced the scene of battling Mie Sheng alone.

But that time was an illusion; this time, it was the real world.

“Is this your reliance?” The ugly realm beast, clutching the token, continued, “Show your fear!”

“Never!” Jian Wushuang roared angrily, forcibly boosting his divine power, trying to break free from the immobilized space, but no matter what, he couldn’t do it.

His heart sank completely.

Seeing Jian Wushuang still trying to resist, the ugly realm beast pointed a finger, piercing through his chest.

Even his Origin Source suffered damage.

The Dao Arena couldn’t augment him, his Origin Source shattered, and he could no longer maintain the Super Eternal Ancient Transformation.

Basic divine power was continuously draining.

Jian Wushuang’s current divine power was less than 30 million.

He was truly doomed.

The life-and-death crisis struck in that instant.

“If you have the guts, return the token to me!” Jian Wushuang’s eyes were red.

He wanted to rush over, snatch the token, and crush it, waiting for his opponent to be ravaged.

He also wanted to see what trump card Teacher Xuan Yi had left him.

But the realm beast wasn’t stupid!

The opponent’s consciousness was only somewhat weak, not low in intelligence.

There was no way it would return the token.

However, seeing Jian Wushuang’s despair, the realm beast taunted, “I can give it to you, and even let you live!”

Was it negotiating terms?

Jian Wushuang’s heart stirred, but then he shook his head frantically, not daring to think about it.

“Dream on, you’re a realm beast born to devour all realms, I’m a cultivator born in the myriad realms, we’re mortal enemies with no room for compromise. You will die, and killing me will also lead to your death!”
