Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang!
"Buzz-!"
The panel shook violently!
The Dao patterns of [Basic Sword Qi 50.0] suddenly erupted with a brilliance more dazzling and intense than ever before.
Like a star forcibly infused with supreme power, it wants to break free from some invisible constraint and leap towards a higher and more unknowable level!
This is completely different from the previous natural and unstoppable process of plundering Sword Intent and frantically iterating through versions.
This improvement has been particularly sluggish.
"Crunch--Squeak----"
It was as if an invisible divine iron gate, weighing billions of tons, was firmly blocking the path of Dao pattern advancement in version 50.0.
"Um?"
Qi Yun's expression suddenly hardened. The faint golden sword mark between his brows swayed slightly, reflecting the sharp glint that flashed in his eyes.
He could clearly sense that it wasn't that his Dao intent wasn't pure enough, but rather a kind of suppression and limitation!
"Has it reached its limit?"
Qi Yun's mind raced, and a flash of understanding crossed his mind.
The automatic updating and iteration of the Law Technique Panel also seems to have its inherent upper limit.
The starting point of [Basic Sword Qi] is too low. Even with the resources of two top Sword Dao pouring into it and forcibly pushing it to the monster version of 50.0, all its potential has been exhausted.
Is this the end?
Just as Qi Yun's mind began to sink, and he started to consider whether to change his approach and deal with the current predicament in another way.
"BOOM!!!"
Deep within the Sea of Consciousness, the Law Technique Panel itself, which was under immense pressure and whose light flickered erratically, suddenly trembled!
"Snap--!!!"
A shattering sound, so clear and so magnificent that only Qi Yun Divine Soul could "hear," suddenly rang out!
In the the Unseen, the Law Technique Panel powerfully carved a crack in the seemingly insurmountable barrier!
The next instant, "Buzz!!!!!"
An unprecedented, dazzling, and intense light, like the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao, burst forth from the crack that had been carved open, from the shattered old definitions!
It instantly flooded the entire Law Technique Panel, even turning Qi Yun's Sea of Consciousness into a pure white!
Cold, vast, and imbued with an unquestionable, absolute authority, the text slowly and forcefully appeared in the center of the sea of light:
[Automatic Law Technique update complete. This update exceeded the slot limit.]
[Fill in the slots to accommodate Law Technique!]
"Boom-!!!!"
outside world.
The dozen or so Xuanhuang Great True Person, who were stunned and caught in a dilemma by Qi Yun's words, were shocked to see that Qi Yun, who had just been controlling billions of Sword-Ray to bombard the Heavenly Court with an aura of dominance, suddenly shuddered!
An immeasurable, pure, and indescribable radiance suddenly emanated from every pore and every inch of Qi Yun's skin.
Even the sword mark between his brows and the vast Great Luo Heaven behind him burst forth with a thunderous roar!
"Clang clang clang clang--!!!"
An unprecedented sword cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth!
The sword's cry was no longer a sound of killing, but rather a magnificent Daoist sound, as if ten thousand swords were paying homage to the source and praising its birth!
The vast depression in the West Sea below, created by the Sword Qi, was silently cut and broken down into the finest dust under the illumination of this primordial sword light!
"Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang?!"
The closest elder from the Hegemon Sect froze his anger and killing intent in an instant, transforming into boundless horror and disbelief. His lips trembled as he squeezed out those four weighty words, each one barely a whisper.
Centered on Qi Yun, the boundless primordial sword light that burst forth did not spread and destroy wantonly. Instead, it resonated with an indescribable and majestic artistic conception that descended from the the Unseen.
At the top of the sky.
The sky, which was originally illuminated by various Divine Ability and Heavenly Court light, suddenly lost all its color and turned into a heavy, ancient, and vast black color, as if it bore the beginning and end of all things!
And on the earth.
The exposed, dried-up seabed, the shattered mountains, and even the faint, distant phantom of the Xuanhuang Continent resonated simultaneously, rising up an endless, warm, and mellow yellow aura, brimming with boundless vitality and the potential for Creation!
Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang!
Xuan Tian is above, and Huang Qi is below.
Two supreme colors and auras, representing the origin of the world and the stabilization of the universe, stand in the space between heaven and earth with unprecedented clarity, guarding the Qi Yun at the center.
The vast and boundless Dao intent, like a tangible tide, permeated every inch of space. Wherever it passed, the raging Spiritual Qi was calmed, and the chaotic Principle were regulated.
Even the Heavenly Court, which was bombarded by billions of Sword-Ray and trembling violently, seemed to have its celestial light and pressure dimmed and diminished in the face of this "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" phenomenon!
"Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, the universe is firmly established—this, this is—a sign of the True Lord's arrival?!"
Lady Jiuli's pretty face turned deathly pale, all traces of her former noble phoenix demeanor gone. The seven-colored phoenix phantom behind her let out a terrified cry, cowering as if about to dissipate.
"He—he's going to become a ruler?!" The small black banner in the hands of the Great True Person Black Mountain fell to the ground with a "thud," and for the first time, this usually calm and composed Great True Person showed a look of horror.
He never imagined that a junior whom he could have easily crushed would now be about to become a ruler right before his eyes!
"True Lord ---- Qi Yun is about to become True Lord ----" The enormous dragon body of the Dragon Crown Prince of the North Sea trembled slightly, his dragon eyes reflecting the Xuanhuang phenomena, as he murmured to himself, as if he had lost his soul.
After a brief silence, a deeper panic spread.
"The All Wonders Heaven —wasn't the All Wonders Heaven already sealed off?"
Dao Fruit, without revealing his rank and status, how could he possibly influence the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, how could he possibly become a ruler?!
The Dragon Crown Prince of the Eastern Sea suddenly looked up at the blurry phantom of the All Wonders Heaven high in the sky, then at Qi Yun, whose aura was becoming increasingly terrifying. His dragon face was full of confusion and astonishment.
This is an ironclad rule, common sense!
But this scene, which defies common sense, is unfolding right before our eyes.
"This strange phenomenon, this aura—it can't be faked." The gray mist around True Person Zַhuanlun churned violently, his voice hoarse and dry, filled with bitterness and powerlessness.
He really is taking that step.
A suffocating silence filled the terrified Great True Person.
After a long pause, the Dragon Crown Prince of the South Sea, his voice still tinged with the shock of surviving a calamity, slowly spoke, trembling slightly. "Should we... run?"
The word "run" sounds so absurd, yet so real, coming from the mouth of a Dragon Palace rules over the endless seas and commands the winds and clouds.
"Run?" Upon hearing this, the Dragon Crown Prince of the Eastern Sea gave a bitter smile, his dragon eyes filled with despair and self-mockery.
"The True Lord overlooks heaven and earth, wielding the power of heaven and earth. With a thought, he can perceive all things in the Xuanhuang."
As long as you and I are still within the Xuanhuang Realm, even if we escape to the ends of the earth, to the very edge of the void—where can we run to?"
Despair, like the deepest, coldest tide, completely engulfed the hearts of every Great True Person present.
The greed and rage that had previously surged for the fortuitous opportunity in Heavenly Court now seemed so laughable and so insignificant in the face of the absolute power disparity and the impending death judgment.
At the same time, in the boundless, lofty, and transcendent All Wonders Heaven.
This mysterious realm was now gripped by an unprecedented tremor.
Among the many dazzling and uniquely shaped Dao Fruit Dao Fruit, one with a special form and flowing with ancient gray light was vibrating and humming violently at an unprecedented frequency and amplitude!
Its sharp Sword Intent soared uncontrollably into the sky, cutting across the All Wonders Heaven, causing the light of other Dao Fruit to sway and give way.
This Dao Fruit is cheering, rejoicing, and resonating.
Desiring to break free from the shackles of the All Wonders Heaven and soar through the sky!
"Is this Fruition Status responding spontaneously?!"
The True Lord Vast Sea and Fine Dust suddenly stood up, staring intently at the excited sword-shaped Dao Fruit, his expression one of astonishment and bewilderment.
The Dao Fruit responded spontaneously, which means that it has gained the deep recognition of this Dao Fruit, which represents one of the highest authorities of the Xuanhuang Sword Dao.
This is extremely rare in the history of Xuanhuang.
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao's face was as calm as still water. His eyes, which seemed to be able to see through the essence of the Sword Dao, narrowed slightly as he stared at the Sword Dao Fruition Status with an extremely complicated expression.
The other Sword Dao True Lord from the Sword Pavilion and the Azure Sect also looked at each other in bewilderment.
They could clearly sense that the exhilarating Sword Dao Fruition Status was not being shared with any of them.
Its direction is clearly towards the lower realm, the West Sea, and Qi Yun, the figure who is stirring up the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, causing a frenzied transformation of his aura!
"Hahaha! Good! Good! Good!"
In stark contrast to the solemnity of the Sword Dao True Lord was the unrestrained, exhilarating laughter of the Desolate Halberd True Lord.
He slammed his fist on the jade throne beneath him, causing the surrounding air to vibrate. He grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and looked at Qingyuan, Vast Sea, and the others with a self-satisfied and smug expression.
"I never expected this! The fine young men trained by my Holy Sect have not only utterly humiliated your worthless juniors, but now they're even offering themselves up for Sword Dao Fruition Status!"
Tsk tsk tsk, Sword Dao True Lord ---- Hahaha!
My Holy Sect is actually about to produce a Sword Dao True Lord!
If this goes through, where do you think the Sword Pavilion and the Azure Sect will put their faces? Should they find a hole in the Chaos to crawl into?"
The words of the Desolate Halberd True Lord were like knives, stabbing into the hearts of several Sword Dao True Lord.
"Desolate Halberd! Shut your mouth!"
The True Lord Vast Sea and Fine Dust, his face ashen, shouted sternly.
"This child merely stumbled upon a momentary resonance with the Fruition Status by fortuitous opportunity, using the Sword Intent he had plundered!"
With the seal on the All Wonders Heaven still unbroken and his Dao Fruit, how can he become a ruler?
But it's all just a mirage!
"A mirage?" Desolate Halberd True Lord scoffed, his thick fingers pointing at the increasingly magnificent strange phenomena of Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang in the lower realm's light screen, and at Qi Yun, whose aura had already begun to undergo some kind of essential Qi Yun.
Do you think I'm blind, or that the signs of "the True Lord Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang world" are false?
My family's Qi Yun has already reached the pinnacle of the Great True Person realm, and now even more Fruition Status are spontaneously responding. What is this called?
This is what is destined by Heaven and the inevitable trend of the times!
Once the shell of the All Wonders Heaven is opened, he will surely become the ruler and wield the power of the Sword Dao!
He paused, deliberately drawing out the syllable, his tone carrying undisguised pride and a hint of something else. "However—given Qi Yun's personality and background—heh heh, he might not really care about your Sword Dao Fruition Status."
The final words of the Desolate Halberd True Lord resounded like thunder in the hearts of the several Sword Dao True Lord.
They ignored Desolate Halberd's taunts and turned their gaze back to the Sword Dao Fruition Status that was still vibrating with excitement.
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao and True Lord Vast Sea and Fine Dust exchanged a glance, both seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes.
Why—of all people, this particular Dao Fruit—?
The lower realm, on the shore of the West Sea, in the center of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang).
Qi Yun was completely deaf to all the noise, shock, fear, and discussion from the outside world.
His eyes had now turned into a pure, blazing white.
The overhaul and reshaping of the Law Technique Panel is now complete.
A brand new line of text, radiating an unparalleled sharpness that even made Qi Yun's Divine Soul feel a slight sting, hung high at the top with an unquestionable, even subtly oppressive, air.
[Basic Sword Qi 51.0].
Below it, a line of even shorter text, yet containing the essence of supreme Sword Dao, slowly flowed:
[New Mechanism - Immortal-Slaying Dao Fruit].
