The Heavenly Flame Sword was Ye Chen's third Three Revolution Limit Sword Art. Each of these three Three Revolution Limit Sword Arts had its own distinctive traits.
Solar Essence Incineration pursued the ultimate attack, supremely hard and supremely yang.
Fleeting Brilliance pursued the splendor of that single instant. Beneath one sword, even ghosts and gods could not escape.
The Heavenly Flame Sword possessed terrifying lingering force, burning everything away.
With these three Three Revolution Limit Sword Arts, Ye Chen had reached a limit in swordsmanship—a limit he would be unable to break through for a long time. The only things left for him to improve were his cultivation, Sword Domain, and Sword Soul.
As for cultivation, there was no rushing it. He was already at the Life and Death Realm Fifth Heaven. Reaching the Life and Death Realm Sixth Heaven would be impossible without one or two hundred years. After all, he had to lay a solid foundation and build momentum for his charge toward the Life and Death Realm Seventh Heaven. He could not rush to the Life and Death Realm Sixth Heaven at the cost of an unstable foundation. That would be terribly shortsighted.
Of course, with the Time Pagoda, he could shorten time by a hundredfold. One or two hundred years reduced by a hundredfold meant merely one or two years—not all that long.
Sword Domain was even less something that could be rushed. The further one progressed with Sword Domain, the harder it became to improve. It was unlike cultivation, where sufficient time would naturally bring success. It was the manifestation of a swordsman's attainment in the Sword Dao. The higher one's Sword Dao realm, the stronger one's Sword Domain would naturally become. Without sufficient Sword Dao foundation, one could scarcely achieve anything in this lifetime.
