403: Chapter 402 [Walking Different Paths of Cultivation] 403: Chapter 402 [Walking Different Paths of Cultivation] “To no longer utilize even a fraction of this Great Universe’s power, and thus not have to abide by its rules, is this a different path to Eternal Life?”
Sword Elder repeated Ye Tianchen’s words, also looking stunned, as if he had grasped sothing.
He couldn’t help but regard this twenty-year-old with new respect.
Sword Elder, the creator of the Xuanyuan Sword, was certainly no ordinary person.
From just these few sentences, he had guessed sothing about Ye Tianchen’s definition and understanding of the path to Eternal Life.
Since ancient tis, in the age of the Great Universe, there have been many cultivators and many who exhausted their lives searching for Eternal Life.
There have also been Emperor-level Experts, a height all cultivators aspire to reach.
Only by attaining that level could one possibly walk further on the path of Eternal Life.
At that height, by relying on the dominance and the unique comprehension of different realms within the Great Universe, one might catch a glimpse of sothing different.
However, in the entire Great Universe, there hasn’t been a single case of soone achieving Eternal Life.
Even the Emperor-level Experts—so are recorded to have passed away, while others have simply disappeared without a trace, their life and death unknown.
If even they did not find Eternal Life, let alone other cultivators, not to ntion ordinary people…
Perhaps Ye Tianchen’s mode of thought paves another road.
In his understanding, even the Emperor-level Experts recorded in the history of the Great Universe, who have reached heights of unequalled loneliness in power, still rely on the powers of the Great Universe.
They have never severed their connection to the Great Universe, and thus they must adhere to its Magic Laws.
In the end, attempting to break free is impossible.
Just as Ye Tianchen said, these experts who beca unparalleled under heaven, even if they realize this fact in the end and attempt to challenge the universe’s Magic Laws with their own strength, to disregard the rules of heaven and earth, it’s impossible.
After all, they are rely using the Great Universe’s own power to fight against the Great Universe—how could they possibly win?
Therefore, the only way might be to not rely on the power of the Great Universe and to break through in cultivation.
From the beginning, not to be tainted with the power of the Great Universe.
If one can reach the Emperor Level Realm in this manner, then there might be hope to break the Great Universe’s rules.
However, such a practice is too insane, and the chance of success is almost zero.
One’s power is limited.
To break through realms on one’s own power requires much more difficulty than utilizing the power of the Great Universe, and the ti required is much longer, perhaps taking ten or eight years to break through a single realm, or even a lifeti to break through just one.
By the ti one reaches the Emperor Level Realm, one is likely already turned to dust!
In the end, Ye Tianchen’s idea to reach the breakthrough in Cultivation Realm without contaminating himself with the power of the Great Universe—perhaps upon becoming a true Emperor-level Expert, there might be that possibility to break the Great Universe’s rules.
But this possibility is also nearly zero.
It is just an additional understanding in the realm of thought.
“Hahahaha, don’t you think you’re being overly arrogant?” Sword Elder suddenly burst into laughter, while admiring Ye Tianchen’s ability to see through this Great Universe’s rule, he also negated Tianchen’s statent.
No one had ever achieved a breakthrough in their cultivation on their own accord; that’s not to say it’s impossible, but no one has ever tried.
It’s an impossible task, for a very simple reason: from the mont a person is born, they live within this Great Universe.
Water, air, food, clothing, shelter, transport—aren’t all these related to the rules of the Great Universe?
To say one can advance without the power of the Great Universe is incredibly difficult to achieve.
Ye Tianchen glanced at Sword Elder but said nothing.
This idea was just taking shape in his mind.
To actualize it, it would take a great deal of effort and many attempts.
Maybe he, Ye Tianchen, might fail just after a single try and perish into dust.
It was just that, under these particular circumstances, he had this revelation.
He would not follow the old path of cultivation.
During the apocalypse, he still tread the sa path.
For ten whole years, he couldn’t break through even the slightest bit of his cultivation realm.
At that ti, Tianchen felt that the rules of the entire Great Universe had set a fixed path for all cultivators, all relying heavily on the power of heaven and earth during their breakthroughs, as if they couldn’t bypass their cultivation realms otherwise.
Indeed, it’s difficult to make such breakthroughs.
Moreover, this is a dog-eat-dog world where everyone is pursuing the ultimate power.
Who would choose the agony of enduring until their own strength was sufficient for breaking through the realm?
And when you have enemies or encounter a stronger expert, wouldn’t you just be throwing your life away?
However, Ye Tianchen is a stubborn and perseverant person.
In his view, there must have been others in the past who thought of this thod and realized the true reason why Eternal Life was unattainable.
Could those who had beco Emperor-level Experts be less intelligent than Ye Tianchen?
Tianchen simply felt that if the predecessors’ path was a dead end, continuing to walk down the sa road would be futile, ending with nothing.
It was better to empty it out now so that he could fill it with hope later on.
Of course, these were just so thoughts Ye Tianchen had about his future cultivation path.
With his current situation and level of cultivation, he was still far from being able to validate his ideas.
There was a long road ahead, and tasks had to be tackled one at a ti, with the most important being addressing the imdiate concerns.
“Elder Sword, I hope you can tell the truth as soon as possible; otherwise, I’ll just continue my ditation and cultivation here.
I find that cultivating here is very beneficial for my cultivation, it’s quite rare!” Ye Tianchen said with a mischievous smile as he looked at Sword Elder.
Sword Elder glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen, cursing in his heart; this lad Tianchen seed sowhat frivolous and erratic, but he was a person of great ambition and perseverance.
Especially when it ca to understanding the path of cultivation, he had even surpassed himself—this lad was not easy to fool!
“This is the interior of the Xuanyuan Sword, containing a Different Space with its own small world that can evolve everything.
I don’t know how many cultivators spend their entire lives unable to comprehend such a profound state.
You, lad, were fortunate to enter here, thanks to the help of the Taie Sword and the Fish Intestine Sword.
Maybe it was your destiny to obtain these two Divine Swords, increasing the likelihood of you subduing the Xuanyuan Sword,” Sword Elder finally couldn’t help but sigh and speak.
“Don’t give that, I really don’t have ti to waste; I’m still planning to tour other places.
Even if you handed the Xuanyuan Sword to now, I might not take it, because I’ve discovered that there are many more things in this Different Space waiting for to explore.
I’m not done playing yet!” Ye Tianchen said with disdain.
Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, the Sword Elder felt like he was about to be infuriated to death by this youngster.
He initially thought that with his deanor as a master and the fact that he himself had forged the Xuanyuan Sword, he would definitely be able to hoodwink Ye Tianchen as he did the previous six experts.
Considering Ye Tianchen’s lower cultivation and his youth, he should have been very easy to deceive.
Yet, this kid, who seed unreliable, turned out to be extrely clever.
He hadn’t fallen for any of his tricks; instead, he had backed the Sword Elder into a corner.
At that mont, Ye Tianchen had walked to the edge of the thatched cottage, looking at the scenery around him.
Slowly, he closed his eyes.
He was perceiving, perceiving everything inside a small world.
The Xuanyuan Sword could evolve the universe, establish heaven and earth—truly extraordinary.
No wonder it was subject to attacks from Heavenly Punishnt; because the Xuanyuan Sword could create a world, it no longer had to adhere to the rules of this current one.
How could it not be obstructed?
“Alright, I’ll tell you.
As for how you do it, that’s your own business.
My ti is running short!” The Sword Elder walked up to Ye Tianchen, let out a sigh, and said.
Ye Tianchen didn’t speak, instead, he nodded and continued to relax his body and mind, not showing any defenses, free of distracting thoughts, fully integrating his divine essence into the small universe within the blade of the Xuanyuan Sword.
“Can you open your eyes and look?
I’m about to recreate the scene of the Xuanyuan Sword’s forging…” The Sword Elder couldn’t hold back and bellowed at Ye Tianchen.
“Go ahead, I can see!” Ye Tianchen said indifferently, opening his eyes as his entire deanor beca incredibly solemn, guessing how violent the birth of the Xuanyuan Sword must have been.
The Sword Elder nodded, extended both palms, and cast a beam of light, which replicated the exact scene of the thatched cottage Ye Tianchen was in.
Beside the forge used for sword-making, the Sword Elder was hamring with a sledgehamr, which Ye Tianchen recognized as the scene of the Sword Elder forging the Xuanyuan Sword.
He watched very closely, thoroughly engrossed.
Dang!
Dang!
Dang!
They were ordinary sounds of hamring, but with every strike the Sword Elder delivered, the piece of tal-like material in his left hand revealed extraordinary visions.
With the first strike, patterns of the sun, moon, and stars appeared; the second strike showed images of mountains, rivers, and vegetation; the third was farming and agriculture; and the fourth strike astonishingly revealed the book of unifying the world.
It was truly amazing.
Even the Sword Elder, who had seen many wonders, was astonished, but as the world’s foremost swordsmith, the more miraculous the object, the more it excited him.
He wanted to see the final result, swinging his hamr as if he had an endless reservoir of strength.
After countless blows, a thunderous roar erupted, and a Thunder Dragon thicker than a water bucket descended from above… (To be continued.
