The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2114: Demon

In the Chaos World, Immortal Venerables are akin to Dao Masters, the same level as Luo Dejie.

However, some Dao Masters in the Chaos World have a huge advantage. If they can fuse with the Chaos World, they gain an Undying Immortal Body, close to possessing undying abilities.

Jing Yan, though not at the realm of a Dao Master, by a stroke of luck, also obtained an Undying Immortal Body. As long as he remains in the Chaos World, even Immortal Emperors from the Immortal Domain would find it troublesome to annihilate him.

Immortal Venerables of the Immortal Domain do not have the Chaos World fused with them, so even the most powerful Immortal Venerables can be killed in the Immortal Domain. Immortal Venerables seeking to leave the Immortal Domain to find and fuse with a Chaos World is not entirely impossible, but the conditions are extremely harsh, perhaps even more challenging than ascending to an Immortal Emperor.

The reason is simple: most Chaos Worlds are actually created by Immortal Emperors from the Immortal Domain. Jing Yan’s Chaos World was created by the Thunder Emperor. It is unlikely that an Immortal Emperor who labored to create a Chaos World would allow Immortal Venerables from the Immortal Domain to tamper with their creation.

...

After returning to Divine Martial City from Radiant City, Jing Yan exchanged greetings with the Seventh Young Master Ying Zuo and went into seclusion to cultivate.

Fifth Level of the Seven Luminaries Technique.

In Radiant City, Jing Yan brought back ample materials to cultivate the fifth and sixth layers of the Seven Luminaries Technique.

The pace of improvement was rapid, progressing by leaps and bounds.

For a typical Nether Sky Realm cultivator, mastering a technique like the Seven Luminaries Technique is quite challenging. The Seven Luminaries Technique has seven layers in total, and generally, Nether Sky Realm cultivators may find mastering the first three layers relatively easy. But from the Fourth Layer onward, mastery seems to require excessive time even with abundant materials. The Fifth Level and Sixth Layer are even harder.

This difficulty applies to ordinary Nether Sky Realm cultivators. For those under the Wanwu Realm, reaching only the first four layers of the Seven Luminaries Technique would require a high level of spell talent.

But for Jing Yan, it was quite easy.

Jing Yan had previously created a Chaos Sword at the level of an Immortal Rhythm Technique and fully mastered the Ancient Tree Inheritance, which surpasses the Immortal Rhythm Level. Cultivating the Seven Luminaries Technique was naturally not an issue for him.

In less than three years, Jing Yan mastered the Fifth Level of the Seven Luminaries Technique.

Cultivating the Sixth Layer took more time. Being a spell at the Immortal Rhythm Level, it was extremely complex. Even for Jing Yan, mastering the Sixth Layer took nearly ten years.

”The Sixth Layer of the Seven Luminaries Technique, already mastered.”

”This Seven Luminaries Technique is at a level comparable to top Secret Techniques of the Chaos World, but mastering the Sixth Layer has given me numerous insights. Spells of the Immortal Domain have considerable differences compared to Secret Techniques of the Chaos World. For me, cultivating the Immortal Domain’s spells not only enhances combat power but also offers other valuable insights.” Jing Yan contemplated silently.

”Next is the seventh and final layer.”

”Unfortunately, my current Black Crystal Stone resources are insufficient to acquire all materials needed for the Seventh Layer of the Seven Luminaries Technique.”

”Must I sell some Magic Treasures?” Jing Yan shook his head slightly.

Selling Magic Treasures shouldn’t be so frequent!

...

Divine Martial City, at the Lord Ying Zhu’s residence.

Lord Ying Zhu frowned, deep in thought.

Recently, several unfortunate incidents have occurred within his Ying Family Territory.

”Father, this bastard named You Dan is nothing short of a demon. Wherever he goes, life suffers,” the Eldest Young Master said angrily, seated below.

He had returned to Divine Martial City yesterday, specifically to report to his father, Lord Ying Zhu.

In the Ying Family Territory over the past one or two years, a fierce cultivator named You Dan emerged. This person committed all sorts of atrocities, burning, killing, and looting, behaving exactly like a Great Demon.

Several cities within the Ying Family Territory have been visited by this cultivator named You Dan. Wherever he appears, he leaves a trail of dead lives.

”Father, this person called You Dan appeared recently. It seems like he is targeting our Ying Family specifically,” the Seventh Young Master Ying Zuo said, frowning.

”This person appeared very suddenly and mysteriously. Two years ago, we had never heard of such a person,” the Sixth Lady also chimed in.

”His origins are mysterious, much like Mr. Jing Yan’s, and we can’t trace his background,” the Second Young Master said, glancing at the Seventh Young Master Ying Zuo.

”Second Brother, Mr. Jing Yan has no ill intentions towards our Ying Family. Also, given Mr. Jing Yan’s strength, if he left our Ying Family, he would be treated as an honored guest in any major territory,” Ying Zuo immediately responded, looking at the Second Young Master.

Nowadays, the Seventh Young Master Ying Zuo is much more confident. He genuinely senses a change in his father Lord Ying Zhu’s attitude towards him.

The Second Young Master glanced at Ying Zuo but said nothing further.

”Father, what should we do? We can’t allow You Dan to continue his rampage within the Ying Family Territory, can we?” the Third Young Master said, his voice heavy.

”This matter must indeed be dealt with,” Lord Ying Zhu finally spoke.

Even Lord Ying Zhu was puzzled. Although You Dan was not a Nether Sky Realm cultivator, his combat power suggested his strength was very close to that realm. Generally, a cultivator of this level should not remain unknown in the Blue Rain Divine Continent.

Yet, what’s puzzling is that none of them had heard of him before. Lord Ying Zhu had investigated You Dan’s background through many contacts during this time, but found no valuable clues. It was as if he appeared out of thin air.

With the Ying Family’s capability, dealing with a cultivator who hasn’t reached the Nether Sky Realm shouldn’t pose any challenge. But Lord Ying Zhu harbored concerns, otherwise, he wouldn’t have tolerated You Dan for so long.

Originally, Lord Ying Zhu thought this person might just be passing through the Ying Family Territory and would leave soon. But now, it seems this person is deliberately opposing the Ying Family, showing no signs of leaving. Since he continues to stay, as the lord of this region, he can no longer stand idle. Continuously procrastinating is not an option!

”Father, until we figure out this person’s identity, we should proceed with more caution,” Ying Zuo pondered out loud.

”Caution, caution! If we continue being cautious, what dignity will our Ying Family have? It’s not just about the future, even now, there are many rumors claiming our Ying Family can’t even handle a Wanwu Realm practitioner!” the Second Young Master snorted coldly.
