Although Xuanyuan Wentian was one of the Four Holy Lords of the Profound Sky Continent, he was a man of mediocre talent when he was young.
And in a place like Tianwei Sword Region, his aptitude was not even mediocre. If it weren't for his surname "Xuanyuan", he might have been expelled from Tianwei Sword Region because of his poor aptitude just like the founder of Tianjian Villa.
The Profound Sky Continent is a world where Xuan is respected, and places like the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region are even more clearly divided into different levels... The level of Xuanli represents the absolute status in it. He was not expelled because he had Xuanyuan blood, but because of his Xuanyuan blood, his qualifications became the shame of the Xuanyuan lineage. He was ignored, ridiculed, despised, and humiliated in the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. Even his biological parents were completely disappointed in him and ignored him. He had six biological brothers, but none of them would even look at him.
He had endured too much contempt and humiliation, coupled with his hatred for himself, and one day he would completely explode. His desire for power was like an awakened demon, growing and madly growing...
He made up for his mediocre talent by working very hard... While others practiced for four hours a day, he practiced for eight hours, or even ten hours. In order to obtain more resources, he used all means, even viciously murdering his fellow disciples one after another... including his two brothers.
As his strength grew rapidly and surpassed more and more people of his age, he began to be recognized, praised, and even flattered by some people. The huge difference in treatment between the weak and the strong made his pursuit of power more extreme, and his pace of pursuit of power became more crazy and unscrupulous. When he finally stood at the top of the sword domain and became the sword master one day, he changed his name to "Xuanyuan Wentian".
It means that one day I will reach the summit of heaven.
Because his desire for power is unceasing, especially after learning about the existence of the Realm of Gods from ancient books, he pursued that world like a demon.
In order to become the master of Xuanyuan Sword, he secretly attacked and poisoned his brother to death.
For the sake of the Heavenly Sin Sword, he risked being sanctioned by the other three holy places and destroyed the huge Eternal Night Royal Family.
In order to unlock the seal of the magic sword, he traveled all over the Tianxuan Continent and spent hundreds of years searching for countless rare objects and stones... For the last magic blood, he sealed Ye Mufeng's soul and chased Ye Huang's reincarnation... For the day when the thirteen stars would align, he waited for a thousand years... For the Samsara Mirror, he planned for other holy places to attack the Illusory Demon Realm together... For the last seal of the magic sword, he planned for the entire Tianxuan Continent.
In the end, because of a small deviation, he gritted his teeth and gave up his body and bloodline.
I finally have the power I have today and can truly conquer the world.
Tenacity, obsession, patience, intelligence, insidiousness, viciousness, cruelty... plus a little bit of luck, have made Xuanyuan Wentian what he is today.
With the power he has now, he has always believed that this is what he deserves and is the only one in the world. When the day comes when he completely refines the devil blood, everyone in the Profound Sky Continent will become an ant except him.
But his Heavenly Venerable might had just arrived when Yun Che suddenly appeared and displayed a power that he could not suppress… and it had only been a month since the last time the two of them fought.
The power of the devil that he had spent his entire life to obtain was actually caught up by Yun Che in just one month. How could he accept it! !
Yun Che said in a deep voice: “A large part of my strength comes from my master, and a small part is what I earned with my life! At least, I will never be like you, who, in pursuit of power, would go crazy and kill an entire clan, wreak havoc on phantom demons, or steal people’s bodies!”
“Master…” Xuanyuan Wentian’s eyes were bloodshot, and the terrifying girl in the red dress appeared in his mind. Even though he was already a “Heavenly Lord”, he still felt fear every time he thought of Jasmine. He roared unwillingly: “Why… why can’t I meet a master like that! Why!! It’s not fair… this is not fair! Ah!!”
Jealousy is also a kind of negative emotion. Once his jealousy is aroused by the dark power, it will become more and more intense like a burning straw.
With a loud roar, Xuanyuan Wentian rushed forward, pouncing on Yun Che like a rampaging beast. Two huge claws appeared at the same time, tearing at Yun Che's body in an interlaced manner.
Yun Che’s footsteps slipped, and his figure instantly moved dozens of feet away. Xuanyuan Wentian, who had missed his target, stopped there, his entire body trembling, but he did not turn around… After a long while, the trembling of his body gradually weakened until it stopped completely.
Even the dark demonic energy that had been causing chaos within him had completely calmed down.
“Ha, ha ha ha.” Xuanyuan Wentian was laughing, but it was no longer the angry, uncontrollable laughter from before. Instead, his laughter was particularly low. He turned around slowly, and his pair of dark pupils actually returned to a terrifying calmness.
Yun Che: “…”
“I almost overlooked one thing.” He raised his eyes and stared at Yun Che, and said in a low voice: “Your profound veins were crippled before you were sixteen years old. From then until today, you have only practiced for less than eight years at most. Less than eight years… Hey.”
“You have gained the power you have now in less than eight years. How many secrets must you have?” Xuanyuan Wentian’s smile became increasingly deep, and his gaze towards Yun Che suddenly became several times more dangerous.
“So what?” Yun Che sneered in response.
"After all, the luck of one person is incomparable to another. You have acquired the power you have today in less than eight years, so you must have the greatest luck on this continent... Unfortunately, the greatest disaster in your life is meeting me."
“I will completely put an end to your luck and life! After you die, all your secrets will naturally belong to me!” Xuanyuan Wentian’s pupils suddenly widened, emitting a burning and crazy light: “Then all your luck will become a stepping stone for me to ascend to another world!!”
“What a pity! Even if I die, you can’t take even a single thing from me.” Yun Che looked at him as if he was a fool.
“Is that so…” Xuanyuan Wentian’s mind flashed back to the forbidden magic technique [Magic Wheel Blood Sacrifice] when the magic sword activated Fen Juechen’s power to devour him. The corners of his mouth curled up a little bit. Although it was too much of a stretch to activate it for the second time in such a short period of time, if he could obtain Yun Che’s full power… this madman would be willing to bear any price.
“Yun Che, I am really surprised that you can reach such a level. Not only did you successfully make me lose control of my emotions, but you even made me feel terrified for a moment.” Xuanyuan Wentian said calmly, and slowly raised his palm with a black light: “But, everything is over.”
Snap!!
Pitch-black lightning flashed from bottom to top, like dark thunder from hell. A pitch-black sword was grasped in Xuanyuan Wentian’s hand. On the hilt of the sword, a pair of demonic eyes released terrifying black light.
Instantly, black energy rose from Xuanyuan Wentian's body, and the already dark black light became even deeper. Even more terrifying was that the dark pressure from his body increased rapidly at a terrifying rate. Under this dark pressure, the sky and the earth quickly darkened, and the churning sea below seemed to be pressed down by a mountain, becoming incomparably calm.
When this dark pressure surged to a certain level, it suddenly weakened. However, the oppressive feeling it gave Yun Che did not weaken. Instead, it caused his soul to spasm for a moment. Then, under Xuanyuan Wentian’s aura, he quickly developed a very strong sense of humility that became increasingly stronger.
This is……
Xuanyuan Wentian’s profound energy aura… underwent a qualitative change! ?
The terrifying pressure was so huge that it was indescribable. The hundreds of miles of sea area became dead silent, the sky became dark, and the space was blocked without any tremors. Under this pressure that covered the sky and the sun, countless profound practitioners of the Supreme Ocean Palace knelt down involuntarily in great fear, and did not dare to stand up for a long time.
Under this pressure, they seemed to be facing the arrival of a god.
“…” Yun Che’s entire body stiffened. He gritted his teeth slightly, then took a deep breath. His chest, which had been suffocating for a long time, finally rose and fell heavily, and the feeling of being suppressed by force was slightly alleviated.
Snap!!
Snap!!
The sky was completely dark, especially the area where the two were, where it was pitch dark, and even the sea water had turned pitch black. Dark thunderbolts thundered down, and the battlefield between the two people seemed to have suddenly turned into a dark hell.
"Do you see it? Do you feel it? This is my true power."
With the magic sword in hand and his blood and soul connected, Xuanyuan Wentian's power had undergone a transformation that was more than earth-shattering. Back then in the Ice and Snow Region, Xuanyuan Wentian, who had not revealed his magic sword, was defeated by the Little Demon Queen, but once the magic sword appeared, he immediately defeated the Little Demon Queen.
Now, the power increase that the magic sword brings to Xuanyuan Wentian is even more obvious.
“This is the power of the divine way, the power of the divine realm. In the Profound Sky Continent, it is just an eternal legend, but in my body, it has become a reality.”
Xuanyuan Wentian slowly raised the Eternal Night Devil Sword, and a long black mark appeared on the sword… It was a spatial crack, but it lasted for a long time.
“This is not good…” Yun Che muttered to himself. He had never expected that Xuanyuan Wentian’s power would grow to such an astonishing degree. Although his heart was tense, his face showed no panic at all. Instead, he said with disdain, “The Profound Divine Realm? Ha, what a joke.”
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Xuanyuan Wentian’s voice suddenly became sinister, as if he was angry at Yun Che’s doubts about his power.
“Although my power is still far from the Divine Profound Realm, my understanding of the Divine Profound Realm is much greater than yours. This is because my master’s power is the true power of the Divine Way!” Yun Che’s mouth slowly revealed a mocking expression: “My master said that to truly step into the Divine Way, it is not just a breakthrough in profound strength, but also that one’s vitality, soul power, and spiritual perception must reach a sufficient level before one can truly step into the Divine Profound Realm. And once one enters the Divine Way, the entire person will be reborn, able to perceive different heavens and earths and laws, possess a soul that can exist independently, and have an extremely long lifespan.”
"And you, your profound strength may indeed have reached the strength of the Divine Profound Realm, but unfortunately, your lifespan and soul power..."
“Shut up!” Xuanyuan Wentian suddenly began to tremble all over, and the black light on his body and sword suddenly twisted violently: “How dare you… You actually questioned my divine power.”
“Oh——” Yun Che laughed: “Seeing how excited you are, I guess you know it clearly.”
“You have thin demon blood and a broken demon soul, but in order to pursue power, you forcefully draw out all your power in a short period of time. This is exactly what the Xuan Dao hates the most… Oh no, it’s what is taboo at any level, which is to exhaust all resources.” Yun Che said coldly: “Although you now possess extremely powerful power, perhaps comparable to the Divine Profound Realm, your power will stop here for the rest of your life. It will only weaken in the future, and will not grow at all. As for your lifespan, hehehe, it is estimated that you will not live for more than a thousand years at most, not even as good as an early Overlord.”
“You!!!” The black light on Xuanyuan Wentian’s body was completely violent, and his whole body released an extremely strong hostility. Because of Yun Che’s words, it fiercely tore the most painful part under his arrogant coat.
“More!” Yun Che’s words did not stop, but became louder: “Your vitality and soul power have not increased but decreased, so how could your spiritual perception be enhanced? Xue’er and I were hiding twenty miles away from the Sea God Arena, but you never noticed it. How could you sense the existence of another world... Hey, that was obviously just a pitiful fantasy you used to deceive yourself.”
“You!! I will cut you into pieces!” Xuanyuan Wentian roared wildly, and rushed towards Yun Che with a black aura that shook the heaven and earth. The Eternal Night Devil Sword released a faint light that seemed to come from hell.
Yun Che’s eyes narrowed, and he did not dare to take the blow head-on. He quickly dodged and avoided it from a distance, not forgetting to fiercely add a slash: “Not only have you not entered the Divine Profound Realm, but you will never be able to enter the true Divine Way in this lifetime!”
