Xiao Yun sighed. Whether it was cultivating the Cosmic Sword Canon to attain the Dao, mastering the Time Sword Dao and Space Sword Dao, or subduing the Imperial weapon atop Sword God Mountain, none of it would be easy.
That made sense. Attaining the Dao to become a Great Emperor and obtaining an Imperial weapon had never been easy since ancient times.
Throughout history, how many Great Emperors had there been? And how many Imperial weapons?
If it were not difficult, Great Emperors and Imperial weapons would have long become as common as cabbages.
Seeing Xiao Yun's gloomy expression, Lei Zhan guessed what he was thinking and smiled as he consoled him. "Kid, don't overthink it. To be honest, I don't think you'll be able to subdue that Imperial weapon either. Just leave it to fate."
As the strongest Sword Saint, he knew very well how difficult it was to comprehend the Time Sword Dao and Space Sword Dao. He had not held much hope for Xiao Yun at all.
Their earlier deal had merely been something he said in passing. It was like buying a lottery ticket—best case, Xiao Yun succeeded; if not, Lei Zhan had nothing to lose.
Xiao Yun nodded, then asked curiously, "Senior, they say it is difficult for the Sword Dao to attain the Dao, and that not a single Sword Emperor has appeared so far. Is that true?"
Lei Zhan nodded and sighed. "That's right. Our Sword Dao has yet to produce even one Great Emperor. Even a supreme Dao like the Chaos Great Dao is not as difficult to cultivate as our Sword Dao. To this day, only Chaos Great Emperor has successfully attained the Dao through the Chaos Great Dao, while our Sword Dao has simply never had anyone succeed."
