Yan Zaizen didn"t respond to the young woman"s words. Instead, his blank eyes started to suffuse an odd light. This light was soft, peaceful, yet hidden within was a deadly sharpness. It felt like existing in paradise, but also like standing on the edge of a blade.
The contradicting feels garnered a vast power in application. Yan Zaizen imagined that, if he used this sword on someone, they may welcome this blade and willingly plunge themselves into death. It was insidious yet beautiful!
"Sir." The young woman called out again, her expression neutral. She was somewhat confused as to why she was sent here. Her status was exceptional, and to act as a guide to a True Essence Cultivator that was obviously older than her felt beneath her. However, she wouldn"t dare disobey an a.s.signment.
Inspecting Yan Zaizen once more, her eyes flickered. Yan Zaizen had a very ordinary vital energy. It didn"t have an element, conceptual base, or uniqueness to it. It was pure vital energy cultivated without a cultivation method.
Her observation was not wrong. The Immortal Herculean Method was a Herculean Path Method, not a FiendG.o.d Method. Therefore, Yan Zaizen"s vital energy was just an unfocused byproduct without direction, yet his physical body was astonis.h.i.+ng.
However, Yan Zaizen vital energy was the same as Lang Xue"s heavenly cultivation base, having the lowest foundation imaginable. As for his Herculean Path, it wasn"t discernable easily.
"Sir!" After waiting a few moments, she became impatient. She was an outer disciple of the Paradise Sword Palace! This Palace belonged to the Heavenly Ruler of the 17th Heaven! Her status was above even core disciples of ninth-tier forces!
Yan Zaizen"s eyes slowly gained clarity. He closed those eyes and felt an aura arise within him. This aura was the Paradisiacal Blade Concept. "Blade?" He pondered the definition of a blade, as he regarded the concept more, he found himself in disbelief.
This concept focuses not on the Mortal Law of the Sword but the World Law of the Blade? He felt startled. This was the first time he realized that a law existed that governed all sharp objects in creation, as if it defined anything with a sharp edge!
"Regardless of if its the wind, water, wood, or metal...exceptional...could it be applied to all things sharp or can cut in the right circ.u.mstances?" He muttered to himself, not noticing the young woman spewing fire from her eyes in fury.
If Yan Zaizen had remained blank, she wouldn"t be as p.i.s.sed, but he had come to and ignored her immediately. "Sir!!" She yelled, losing her composure.
Yan Zaizen looked at her with an inquisitive brow, "who is she?" He didn"t think there would be a guide for his entry or anyone arriving the greet him. For one, his status was unknown. Secondly, he belonged to another heaven and thus wasn"t connected to this one. That was stated clearly before.
Yet…
"What is it?" He casually questioned, thinking she wanted to ask him a question or something. However, he didn"t keep his gaze in the girl, instead looking downwards at the ground.
He was dozens of li above the ground. The world below was merely forests with normal beasts, but these beasts were all equivalent to True Essence Realm experts in aura and fleshy bodies. His brows furrowed as he realized that these were not Divine Beasts but normal animals.
"Sir, my name"s Mei Adel. I"m here to escort you to Immortal City." She tried to form a smile, but it was incredibly forced and looked a little awkward. One could see the lack of experience in servicing someone in her actions, but also her desire to try.
It was commendable.
Unfortunately, Yan Zaizen didn"t care. Only the name of this "Immortal City" left him curious. His gaze turned towards Mei, "Immortal City?" It was truly brazen to blatantly call a city immortal. It felt as if it was domineering and taunting all creation.
"Please, follow me." Mei nodded and quickly turned around and flew away. Her speed was quite fast. It was even faster than normal peak-True Essence cultivators. Yan Zaizen"s eyes lit up. Her speed could rival heavenly cultivators, at least first-floors.
He didn"t immediately follow, looking towards the moon. With a wave of his finger, a blade light surged. This blade light felt like paradise, and anyone looking at it may be drawn into their fantasy, as if obtaining this blade meant finding true peace and happiness.
"Only death remains." He waved once more, this time the blade light"s aura was stronger than the last but it carried a sharpness to it. He turned towards Mei, his eyes flickering.
"Perfect Nascent Level…" slowly muttering, he had comprehended the Paradisiacal Blade Concept fully in a few seconds.
He took a step towards Mei, his body s.h.i.+fting force through the s.p.a.ce and catching up. With this one step, he had cut the distance between them by a quarter. Placing his index and middle-finger together, he waved his right arm as if his fingers were a blade.
The blade light produced seemed to contain intense blade law energy. It was sharper and contained the essence of sharpness.
"Initial Force Level…" He had integrated the essence of the World Law of the Blade within his light. While the concept had a sharpness, it was superficial and without essence, only an aura, only a thought. Now, it could truly cut without the support of any energy medium.
He took another step, reaching half-way between Mei and himself. Subst.i.tuting blade for finger, he slashed in front of him. This slash contained a dense essence of sharpness.
"Perfect Force Level…"
Another step, the heavens trembled faintly as the aura of his concept and energy of the law merged, forming within the heavens and directly manifesting with only the heavens support. This sword that contained concept and law could interact and affect all beneath the heavens.
"Initial Manifestation Level…"
Yan Zaizen"s eyes narrowed, looking at the moon above. A light of profound enlightenment surged outwards instantly. He took another step, leaving only a quarter of the distance left between Mei and himself.
Despite describing the distance shortage, Mei had kept traveling at full speed, so each step carried Yan Zaizen further than the last.
As if connecting with the heavens, Yan Zaizen"s fingers took on the illusion of a blade with no hilt or distinctive sharp. It could be a sword, an axe, a spear, a scythe or even a kusarigama! It contained no defined trait except sharpness and the ability to cut!
He slashed upwards, then diagonally downwards, and then horizontal as he reached mid-way creating a "4". With each slash, the heavens were drawn in and manifested in the concept of Yan Zaizen"s blade. Each line thicker than the last.
"Perfect Manifestation Level…" Yan Zaizen pondered slightly, taking another step forward. This forward step brought him before Mei. It startled her suddenly as she stopped abruptly. Yan Zaizen had perfectly s.h.i.+fted through the void of the realm, and not through another layer of s.p.a.ce, but the actual void. It was like time and s.p.a.ce was none existent concepts to Yan Zaizen"s steps.
It was very, very close to teleportation, but also not.
Yan Zaizen tapped out, forming a one-sided war axe. This war axe was very similar to Sky Shatter in size and structure. The only difference is that, instead of a hammerhead, there was a curved blade.
He gripped the shaft of this axe. When he did, an aura surged outwards causing the heavens to s.h.i.+ft suddenly. It was as if the laws outside of one had been suppressed. This aura affected a small area, producing blade law energy with the concept of the Paradisiacal Blade.
Mei couldn"t even be startled, her eyes turning blank as she seemed to have an expression of ecstasy and utter happiness. It was perverted yet incredibly alluring, as if she had reached her greatest dreams. It affected her very soul!
"Domain Level!" Yan Zaizen felt the domain form with the war axe as the epicenter. It was astonis.h.i.+ng! Even as a Non-Ent.i.ty, this was his first time comprehending a law so thoroughly so quickly! Let alone a World Law!
Looking at the moon once more, he felt extraordinary. That moon may be a Regalia of the Heavens, but its intensity was thousands of times greater! It was the largest legacy treasure he had ever seen!!!
