One Person Is an Era!

At this moment, endless purple energy permeated Chen Feng's hands, and a bolt of purple lightning quietly manifested in his palm.

That terrifying purple lightning gradually condensed into shape, transforming into a long purple sword. The sword was incredibly fearsome, carrying a violent aura that caused the space around it to show faint signs of distortion.

On Chen Feng's body, two soul rings emerged: one yellow, and the other purple.

The two soul rings floated up and down around Chen Feng's body, and a terrifying aura continuously radiated from them.

At this time, Chen Feng appeared full of sharp intent, as if he had transformed into a peerless blade, seemingly capable of shattering the void with the slightest touch.

The purple long sword drifted beside him, rotating slowly and releasing its lethal momentum.

The sword was wreathed in terrifying purple flames.

At this moment, Chen Xin looked at Chen Feng in utter shock; he was stunned, standing frozen in place as he stared at his grandson in astonishment.

At this moment, Chen Xin was even more surprised than he had been when he first saw Kamisato Ayaka.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin immediately asked in horror: "Xiao Feng, th-this... what is going on?"

"How did your martial soul and soul rings become like this?"

"And aren't you only level nineteen? In just a few days, you actually... broke through to level twenty-eight? You broke through nine levels in a few days—how did you do it?"

Chen Xin's eyes were filled with extreme shock, and he stood there dumbfounded, as if he didn't even recognize his own grandson.

He clearly remembered that when Chen Feng left home, he had only just reached level nineteen. Yet now, he had already broken through to level twenty-eight.

One had to realize, this cultivation speed was simply like flying.

Chen Feng smiled calmly, "Grandfather, this is the surprise I wanted to give you."

"Xiao Feng, what is all this really about?" Chen Xin immediately asked.

At this moment, Chen Feng looked at Sword Douluo Chen Xin. He did not tell his grandfather about the system, but simply said calmly: "Grandfather, in truth, my Iron Sword martial soul is likely the most unique martial soul in this world."

"Grandfather once tested your martial soul; it is undoubtedly a mutated martial soul. Why do you say it is the most unique?" Chen Xin asked, puzzled.

At this moment, Chen Feng said calmly: "Grandfather, actually, my martial soul can be upgraded!"

Hearing Chen Feng's words, Chen Xin looked at him in utter astonishment, shocked: "You... what did you say?"

"I said my martial soul can be upgraded!" Chen Feng repeated.

Chen Xin stood there blankly, his eyes filled with an incredible light.

After a long while, Chen Xin took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

The next moment, Chen Xin suddenly became overjoyed, breaking into loud laughter.

"Hahahaha."

"I knew it! Truly, the heavens bless our Chen family!"

Hahahahahaha.

The heavens have not been unkind to me, Chen Xin! This is truly fortunate.

Xiao Feng, Grandfather knew that you were a late bloomer, that you would definitely become strong. Grandfather did not misjudge you."

Chen Xin laughed heartily.

Chen Xin looked at Chen Feng and said: "Xiao Feng, you have given me such a surprise. You know, our Chen family is a family of swordsmanship; for generations, we have been the leaders of the continent's sword path."

"My grandfather, Chen Xun, was once the strongest person on the continent. With his Seven Kill Sword, he conquered the continent, challenging major sects and defeating their masters—he was invincible under the heavens."

"My father, Chen Jianjun, was also invincible. Back then, he was ranked alongside Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu, and Bo Saixi as the continent's top prodigies—he, too, was invincible."

"It is only a pity that when he challenged Martial Soul Hall, he lost to Qian Daoliu by a single move, a regret that lasted his entire life."

"Although I lack the talent of our ancestors, I have barely reached the level of a Title Douluo. Your father, while not exceptionally strong, has reached the Soul Douluo realm, and it is not impossible for him to reach the Title Douluo realm in the future."

"But you... because of your martial soul mutation since childhood, everyone stopped looking favorably upon you."

"However, Grandfather has always loved your character. I knew you would eventually become strong, but I never expected you to give me such a surprise!"

"Xiao Feng, with such talent, your future achievements will surely be immense."

Chen Xin continued.

Chen Feng looked at his grandfather's satisfied expression and smiled slightly.

At this moment, Chen Xin continued: "I have examined your current martial soul; it is already comparable to the strength of my Seven Kill Sword. Can your martial soul still be upgraded?"

Chen Feng nodded: "It can still be upgraded!"

Hearing Chen Feng's words, Chen Xin became even more excited, shocked beyond measure: "Really? Your martial soul can actually still be upgraded?"

"Then we were completely wrong about you. If you continue to upgrade, the quality of your martial soul will surpass the Seven Kill Sword and become the strongest tool martial soul on the continent! In that case, you might reach the realm of our ancestor, Chen Xun."

"No, perhaps you could even challenge that legendary realm."

"Hahahaha, Xiao Feng, you have truly given me too great a surprise."

Chen Feng looked at his grandfather and then asked: "Grandfather, actually, I have always had a question I wanted to ask you."

"What question?"

Chen Feng immediately spoke up: "Grandfather, our Chen family has been a family of swordsmanship since our ancestors, but why don't we establish our own sect instead of attaching ourselves to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Upon hearing Chen Feng's question, Chen Xin did not hide anything and replied, "Little Feng, do you know what is required for cultivating the way of the sword, besides increasing one's level?"

Chen Feng shook his head.

Chen Xin then said, "It requires enlightenment!"

"Enlightenment?" Chen Feng asked in surprise.

Chen Xin nodded and said, "That's right, enlightenment. In the way of the sword, apart from the soul skills one naturally possesses, the sword path one realizes for oneself is also extremely important. Our ancestor became the strongest powerhouse on the continent precisely because he realized a peerless sword path."

If you can realize your own sword path and master it thoroughly, at that point, your sword will no longer need to rely on specific soul skills; you will reach the realm of unity between man and sword.

When that time comes, whether it be petty ghosts or demons and monsters, no matter what it is, you can slay it with a single strike!

However, that is a realm that only my grandfather in our lineage has ever reached. Therefore, that era was the era of my grandfather alone; with one man and one sword, he reached the pinnacle of Douluo, unrivaled by anyone.

After my father fought against Qian Daoliu, he also stepped half a foot into that realm, but unfortunately, he was too severely injured and eventually passed away.

As for me, that legendary sword path still feels infinitely far away.

Therefore, in order to pursue the purest path, we have all chosen to detach ourselves from worldly affairs and focus solely on studying the way of the sword.

From our ancestors until now, almost everyone has been obsessed with researching their own sword path, which is why our Chen family has always been passed down through a single heir and has never developed any power or influence."

Chen Xin looked at Chen Feng and said, "Little Feng, power and influence are all external things. The most important thing is for you to realize your own sword path. When that day comes, you alone will be an era!"
