Time flowed by, and no one could avoid the Thirteenth Sword. Even the strongest person would have to endure the Thirteenth Sword. This was the Sword Sect's invincible Thirteen Swords.
Only Emissaries could comprehend it, not because there was a cultivation realm requirement, but because the user did not have a deep understanding of emotions. It would take a long time to cultivate to the Emissary level, and this was also something that had to be endured in order to cultivate the Thirteenth Sword.
The Thirteenth Sword required emotions.
Liu Tianmu had never experienced emotions before. She had been a peerless genius since birth and had been chosen by the Thirteen Swords. Who would dare to talk about emotions with her?
Even the Ten Arbiters kept a respectful distance from her, and she could not find anyone to talk about emotions with. As for familial love, that was even rarer. Cultivators could stand tall in the starry sky, but they could not obtain the familial love of ordinary people. This was the sorrow of many cultivators.
Liu Tianmu did not have love or familial love, so she could not fully comprehend the Thirteenth Sword.
However, Liu Tianmu was also a genius. Everyone believed that emotions were just love and familial love, and that they were the most profound. However, she believed that there was another type of emotion, and that was stubbornness. Stubbornness towards the sword and cultivation was also a type of emotion. This was her emotion, and this was the emotion that she had established by using the Thirteenth Sword.
A gentle breeze blew past, causing Liu Tianmu's hair to flutter along the sword, across the golden stage, and across the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Everyone felt that something was strange. At this moment, this gentle breeze stirred up many people's thoughts, making it impossible for them to fully immerse themselves in the battle. They subconsciously looked in the direction of the breeze towards Liu Tianmu.
Prime Clarity's expression turned serious as three streams of energy surrounded him. He felt an indescribable sense of danger. Although it was only a small amount, how many people in the entire Mountain and Sea Realm could cause him such a sensation?
His eyes were filled with anticipation. He had wanted to experience the Thirteen Swords for a long time. Although the Thirteen Swords were rumored to be mysterious and powerful enough to instantly kill powerful enemies, he did not care. No one could defeat the three suns' ancestral qi, and no one could defeat him.
This was his confidence, and he had no intention of stopping Liu Tianmu. He wanted to see just how powerful the Thirteenth Sword was.
Below Liu Tianmu, Lu Yin and Xie Xiaoxian were also watching. They also felt that something was wrong, especially Lu Yin. At this moment, the rune lines within Liu Tianmu's sword had disappeared.
He could see the rune lines............................
It meant that it was beyond the scope of his understanding.
It was just like how the Three Suns Ancestral Qi could ignore the weakening effects of the Universe Evolution True Scripture.
Liu Tianmu's current state had reached a certain miraculous state. It wasn't that she and Shangqing were able to surpass the Scripture of Eon Evolution. That was impossible. However, they were able to surpass him. At the very least, the Scripture of Eon Evolution that he had cultivated to the level of spirituality was unable to affect the two of them.
The Zhou Yan True Scripture was also a technique. As long as it was a technique, there was always the possibility of being surpassed. The Prime Clear's Three Yang Ancestral Qi and Liu Tianmu's Thirteenth Sword both surpassed Lu Yin's grasp of the Zhou Yan True Scripture. Naturally, it wasn't something that he could understand.
There was no sword light, no slashing motion. When the sword in Liu Tianmu's hand cracked and she fell to the ground, everyone knew that the thirteenth slash had been completed.
Everyone subconsciously looked at Shangqing. They were shocked to find that Shangqing's face was pale. His chest was stained with blood, which eventually dripped onto the golden stage. His body trembled, and he slowly squatted down, panting heavily. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
Anyone who had fought with Shangqing before would understand the might of the Three Yang Ancestral Qi. He had never been injured before, but he had been injured twice by Liu Tianmu. He had been injured by the twelfth and thirteenth slashes, and the thirteenth slash was especially severe.
Had the thirteenth slash really been completed?
Why hadn't they discovered anything?
Only one person in the entire Mountain and Sea Realm had seen the might of the thirteenth slash, and that was Tai Yishen. He had cultivated the Zhou Yan True Scripture to the Knower Realm, which was a level higher than Lu Yin's. He had also seen the rune lines of the thirteenth slash.
Tai Yishen was stunned. Was this the thirteenth slash?
No wonder the legendary Sword Sect's thirteenth slash was unavoidable. That slash had nothing to do with space, and when it appeared, it had already been executed.
Tai Yishen looked at Liu Tianmu, who was lying on the ground. He did not know if she was dead or alive. This woman was terrifying, and no matter who she faced, she had the ability to take them down with her. Even Shangqing was no exception.
Lu Yin could not see Shangqing's rune lines, but Tai Yishen could.
In his eyes, Shangqing's rune lines had weakened significantly.
Outside the Mountain and Sea Realm, the older powerhouses were speechless.
After a while, Mu En sighed. "I've seen the Sword Sect's thirteenth slash again. It's just as stunning as before."
Highsage Shen Wei's expression was solemn. "If the Sword Sect had more people who comprehended the thirteenth slash, they would have established themselves in the Neoverse long ago."
Xia Meng stared at Liu Tianmu. This child would definitely have a place in the future.
Mu En smiled. "Not bad. This Star Pagoda competition was truly impressive. Even the thirteenth slash appeared. This child is qualified to be included in the list."
Not far away, Yuan Ke sighed. "She's the only person who's been able to injure the Three Yang Ancestral Qi user. If she's not qualified, then no one else is."
Above the Mountain and Sea Realm's golden screen, Shangqing was half-squatting on the ground, panting heavily. It took him a while to recover, and he stood up shakily. He looked at Liu Tianmu and shook his head. "Use beyond your limits?
Although the thirteenth slash is unfathomable, you can only use it once. Liu Tianmu of the Sword Sect, I, Shangqing, acknowledge you. If you can stand up, I guarantee that you will become one of the Five Astral Children. "
Shangqing's words shocked many who heard him. They had all assumed that he was uninterested in the outside world and would only follow the Hall of Honor's orders. He was only interested in his own strength, so they had never expected him to say such words to Liu Tianmu.
Outside of the Mountain and Sea Realm, Mu En frowned. These words should not have come from the Prime Clear's mouth. The Five Prodigies of the Stars were the result of the Neoverse's distribution of benefits, and the Hall of Honor had taken control of the situation. Even Xia Jiuyou, who had revealed his nine clones to defeat Lei Lass, had been stopped in his futile attempt to become one of the Five Prodigies of the Stars, let alone someone from the Innerverse.
Shangqing actually had such thoughts.
Highsage Shen Wei laughed. "Not bad, not bad. I thought that this kid was just a blockhead who had cultivated the three suns' ancestral qi, but now it seems that he has his own ideas. Hahaha, that's good."
In the distance, Yuan Ke also laughed and looked at Shangqing with admiration. "Without his own ideas, even if he cultivated the universe's number one technique, he still wouldn't be able to reach the Progenitor realm. It's impossible to become truly invincible just by relying on a technique. The Hall of Honor was right to raise this child."
Xia Meng also looked at Shangqing with admiration for the first time.
Mu En was helpless. While they might think this way, some people in the Hall of Honor did not. Some of them hoped to raise someone who was completely loyal to the Hall of Honor, someone who could use the three suns' ancestral qi, someone who would be loyal to the Hall of Honor, rather than someone who would be rebellious and would even admire their enemies.
Many people probably couldn't fall asleep after hearing this.
It seemed that Shangqing had not been tamed, but rather disdained. Not only was he disdainful of his enemies and peers, but he was also disdainful of certain people in the Hall of Honor. He did not want to argue with them.
This was the true Shangqing, an invincible genius with flesh and blood who had cultivated the universe's number one technique.
…
No one knew how Shangqing's injuries were, and no one dared to attack him.
Ling Gong had gone to challenge Shangqing but had retreated, which meant that she had lost. Based on her temperament, she did not have the face to challenge Shangqing again.
Yu Hua Mavis suppressed Invisible Light the entire time. Originally, the Spirit Palace had not intended to interfere, but Yu Hua Mavis had included her in the attack range. The green fists attacked wildly from above, and the Spirit Palace could only cooperate with Invisible Light to resist.
Xia Jiuyou and Starsibyl's battle was the simplest, as no one could tell where they had used the Nine Clones Technique. Could it be that the technique had only brought them from the Hunter realm to the Enlighter realm?
Obviously not, as Progenitor Chen's invincible technique was not necessarily any weaker than the three suns' ancestral qi.
Qiu Shi was the most aggrieved in this battle, as her attacks were completely useless against Wen Sansi.
Actually, it was not just Qiu Shi who was aggrieved, as Yuhua Mavis and Xia Jiuyou were also aggrieved at times. Just like how Starsibyl would occasionally use her abacus to help Wen Sansi, Invisible Light and the others obstructing their opponents' attacks, Wen Sansi would occasionally use a barrier to help Starsibyl, blocking Xia Jiuyou and Yuhua Mavis.
That barrier was currently unbreakable, and it would occasionally block Yuhua Mavis' attacks. This made Yuhua Mavis feel aggrieved, and she even wanted to switch opponents with Qiu Shi to see if she could break through the barrier with her unlimited strength.
The intense battle on the golden screen was nearing its end. If not for Wen Sansi's sudden appearance and his barrier, they would have already been defeated.
Shangqing had been heavily injured by Liu Tianmu's Thirteenth Sword, and no one knew how serious his injuries were.
Under such circumstances, Lu Yin and Xie Xiaoxian took the opportunity to charge into the giant eye.
They were all afraid of Shangqing, as he would not let his guard down. How could he allow his inheritance to be stolen? However, after being heavily injured by the Thirteen Swords, Lu Yin and Xie Xiaoxian were confident that they could rely on their own abilities to avoid the three suns' ancestral qi and charge into the giant eye.
However, they were overthinking things, as Shangqing did not care about them at all. Perhaps he had discovered them, but he did not care. He simply allowed them to charge into the giant eye that had split open the mountain peak.
As soon as they stepped into the eye's range, the scene before them completely changed. It was as if a strange starry sky had been opened up, and as far as the eye could see, they were surrounded by specks of star energy that slowly rotated. This giant eye was formed from star energy, and it formed a strange heaven and earth, or rather, a world.
"Seventh Bro, this is a heaven and earth controlled by a World Realm cultivator's star energy. It might also be the Profound Creation Realm," the monkey said excitedly.
Lockbreakers placed the most importance on star energy control, and it was divided into six different realms: Minute, Cloudwalker, Heavenly Intelligence, Divine Eye, World Realm, and Profound Creation Realm. Lu Yin had been able to reach the Divine Eye Realm with the help of the Elysian Lake's spring water, and normally, he could only reach the Heavenly Intelligence Realm. He had no understanding of the World Realm or Profound Creation Realm, but now, he had arrived at a strange place that might have been formed by these two realms.
"Seventh Bro, this place should be specially created for Lockbreakers to comprehend the realm of star energy control. It's most suitable for you," the monkey shouted.
Lu Yin felt the same way.
It was no wonder why Shangqing did not care. He was not a Lockbreaker, and he had already discovered the giant eye's mysteries while climbing the mountain, which was why he did not care.
Xie Xiaoxian was disappointed, as she could also tell that this place was not suitable for her.
