Legend of Swordsman

It was now the stage of the Universe Masters.

These guys were likely beneath the heavens.

Jian Wushuang had to be cautious of this.

Na Yiluan had also mentioned a lot about the Universe Masters within the clan,

Unfortunately, he hadn’t encountered any of them.

The Universe Masters in the clan, along with the Emperors, were all assessed based on their strength in the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye.

Jian Wushuang found this interesting.

”You said, is there anyone in the Divine Eye Clan who, at the Dao Master level, has cultivated the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye to the fourth turn?”

Upon hearing this, Na Yiluan immediately shook his head and said, ”How could that be possible? The fourth turn is for Emperors. Even among Emperors, those who cultivate to the fourth turn are considered geniuses. The geniuses among Dao Masters can only reach up to the third turn at most!”

”Are you that certain?” Jian Wushuang feigned disbelief.

Although he had relied on luck in some instances, if he hadn’t, he would have been able to perfect the second turn during his Grand Completion stage and could likely have achieved the third turn through his own comprehension.

Besides, there were many ordinary people in the Ancient Domain who had fully cultivated the first turn.

He really didn’t think it was that difficult.

Na Yiluan’s eyes lit up as he said, ”Don’t say that! I have heard of a genius in the Divine Eye Clan who perfected the third turn of the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye during their mundane phase, but there hasn’t been any news of them since!”

”Hah, you’ve just never been to the Sacred Land of the Starry Sky. Who knows, maybe there’s a Dao Master there who’s already cultivated the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye to the fifth turn!” Jian Wushuang teased.

Unexpectedly, Na Yiluan became anxious and said, ”Although you carry the aura of the Divine Eye Clan, you clearly don’t understand them, nor do you understand the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye. Most of the cultivators you’re comparing to are from the human race. They’ve cultivated one of the first five turns, which indeed seems simple. But have you seen how hard it is for them to fuse these techniques? In the entire Ancient Domain, only the Holy Lord has successfully fused two techniques and begun cultivating the third sequence. This triggered the descent of a Universe Master’s legacy within our clan, allowing him to receive the complete inheritance of the first five turns. But have you noticed? All these years, that Holy Lord still hasn’t completed the third turn!”

”That makes sense. The first turn is the easiest. Or, to put it differently, any one of the first five turns is simple when taken individually, but combining them increases the difficulty exponentially!” Jian Wushuang nodded in agreement.

After all, he couldn’t compare himself to others.

What he spoke of was purely theoretical, as he hadn’t cultivated the technique himself. But he still needed to give it a try.

He couldn’t solely rely on capturing Divine Eye Clan cultivators to open the Nine Prison Pagoda,

They were too hard to find.

As for capturing powerful individuals who had mastered the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye, his own limited strength made that difficult as well.

He might as well attempt to cultivate the fourth turn of the Secret Technique of the Divine Eye himself.

Perhaps by doing so, he could unlock the fourth level of the Nine Prison Pagoda on his own.

Jian Wushuang chatted with Na Yiluan for a long time.

Besides some general information, there were two key pieces of information that were useful to him.

First, there was a potential lead about the Divine Eye Clan.

This was related to Na Yiluan’s injuries. He had heard that within a secret realm of the universe, a Sacred Land of the Divine Eye Clan had appeared.

He had also heard that there was life inside.

Believing that powerful members of the Divine Eye Clan had shown up, he had ventured into that secret realm of the universe.

However, before he could enter the sacred land, he was ambushed by a group of mysterious experts on the outskirts. He barely managed to escape with his life.

He wasn’t sure what had happened afterward, as he fled through thousands of worlds before finally stopping in the Ancient Domain.

The second matter was about the Universe Flying Boat.

Back then, he had seized the body of the Two-faced Buddha and threw a large amount of his treasures into a dangerous place within the chaos void.

That dangerous place was very close to the Ancient Domain World.

If a Dao Master hurried, they could reach it within a hundred years.

However, that dangerous place was renowned across dozens of great worlds in the vicinity. Even Emperors who entered it were prone to falling.

As for Dao Masters, very few dared to venture inside.

Therefore, he threw his treasures into the core of that dangerous place, planning to retrieve them once he had stabilized and regained his strength.

These two pieces of information were indeed very useful to him.

But each one was extremely difficult.

So, he didn’t rush into action immediately but instead asked some questions regarding self-sacrifice.

At the moment, he was researching this matter.

When Yiluan heard that he was studying divine blood, she felt an urge to mock him but hesitated, unsure if it would be appropriate. However, she couldn’t completely hold her tongue.

Seeing this, Jian Wushuang raised his hand and signaled, ”Go ahead and say what you want.”

”You’re delusional!” she sneered.

Jian Wushuang: ”.”

”Jian Wushuang, who do you think you are? You even dare covet divine blood? Let me

tell you, even the simplest silver divine blood comes from Universe Gods. Though it’s been diluted many times over, it’s not something that a mere... Wait, what realm are you in now?” Yiluan’s expression stiffened.

Earlier, Jian Wushuang had only referred to himself as one of the chosen, which hadn’t deceived her.

Therefore, Yiluan had assumed he was just a prodigy of the Divine Eye Clan who had inherited some kind of legacy.

She had no idea how powerful he had been at his peak.

It was no wonder she mocked him so openly.

Jian Wushuang, unfazed by the ridicule, calmly replied, ”I’m currently in the Mahayana stage, at the third transformation of the Mystical Art.”

”Rip!” Yiluan’s eyes widened, and she gasped in disbelief. ”You can’t possibly be only in the Mahayana stage?”

Seeing her doubt, Jian Wushuang directly revealed his true form.

A one-eyed Realm Beast, exuding an aura of destruction and evil.

His aura was entirely different from the rules of heaven and earth.

Even the rules within his aura were different.

However, there was no sign of any Origin Source.

There wasn’t even the slightest hint of Origin Source’s aura.

As for his strength, it was best left unsaid.

Without an Origin Source, he was just a Mahayana-stage cultivator.

Yiluan first marveled at how terrifying Jian Wushuang’s true form was. Her expression then changed drastically as she exclaimed, ”You really are in the Mahayana stage! You don’t have an Origin Source? Then what was the Origin Source from before?” ”Naturally, I was deceiving you, but I do indeed have some connection with the Divine Eye Clan!” Jian Wushuang raised an eyebrow. He wasn’t lying; his relationship with the Divine Eye Clan was quite significant.

In terms of seniority, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration for Yiluan to call him granduncle. ”Despicable!” Yiluan cursed when she realized she’d been fooled, unable to hold back her anger.

However, she had already said everything she needed to, and knowing that some of Jian Wushuang’s words were true, she wasn’t genuinely angry.

”Now can you tell me more about the divine blood?” Jian Wushuang asked calmly. ”I’ve already researched quite a bit, and I’ve discovered that the life level of this silver divine blood is very low, only at the cosmic level. There must be stronger divine blood above it, right?”

Yiluan nodded and replied, ”That’s right. Divine blood is divided into nine levels. Silver is the second tier, with a peak divine power of ten thousand times. A lower-tier black divine blood has only five thousand times divine power. There’s also the golden divine blood, used by Emperors, which has fifty thousand times divine power. However, all these are remnants left by the Universe Gods, mainly to reward the servants who pledged allegiance to the Divine Eye Clan!”

As she said this, Yiluan proudly raised her head, showcasing the former glory of the Divine Eye Clan.

”I think I understand,” Jian Wushuang nodded.

Yiluan was surprised, ”What do you understand?”
