Jiang Wuyuan secluded himself for ten years.
The Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm remained largely unchanged, but the outside world had undergone tremendous changes and transformations.
First, eight years ago, Nian Qingfeng brought Sheng Wanshi back from the abyss. At that time, Sheng Wanshi was seriously injured.
When Nian Qingfeng found him, he was lying miserably on a piece of desolate land in the forbidden abyss. Fortunately, the nearby alien races were quite wary of Sheng Wanshi's power, otherwise Sheng Wanshi probably wouldn't have lasted until Nian Qingfeng arrived.
Given the urgency of the situation, Sheng Wanshi immediately ordered the heavily wounded Zhan Wuji to retreat first—after all, the two of them couldn't both die here, and someone had to spread the news from inside the forbidden area.
So Zhan Wuji dragged his heavily injured body back to get reinforcements, while Sheng Wanshi, having fought the half-emperor alien race alone, ended up with no strength left to even escape.
This is not even a half-emperor that has fully broken through the seal.
If it were during its peak, Sheng Wanshi dared not even think about the consequences.
However, he still suffered very serious injuries, including to his core.
Fortunately, Jiang Wuyuan still had some of the Wood Spirit Liquid he brought back earlier, and his injuries were slowly healing.
Since Nian Qingfeng returned, he has often gone to the entrance of the Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm and stayed there for a whole day.
In the end, it was Fu Qiang who carried his sword and drove the people away.
The reason is simple: they are genuinely afraid that Nian Qingfeng might get carried away and destroy the Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm.
The Dragon Kingdom has also taken some measures in response, such as significantly increasing security near the entrance to the Apocalypse Secret Realm.
Nian Qingfeng harbored resentment because he hadn't seen his apprentice.
So he vented all his anger on the alien race.
It has to be said that those alien races in the forbidden area who weren't sealed have really had a run of bad luck in the last few years. They probably have nightmares every night when they sleep—even though alien races don't need sleep.
Being chased and hacked by a malevolent spirit—even alien races wouldn't want to experience that!
Besides that, many other things happened on Earth.
The war between the Heistan Empire and the Federation and the alien races gradually subsided five years ago, until now, when the alien races suddenly began to launch a massive attack on every country adjacent to the Abyss.
This includes, but is not limited to, the Dragon Kingdom, Heistan, the Federation, and many surrounding small countries.
Nian Qingfeng led his troops into battle once again, and the entire military was mobilized.
Of course, the help of the hunting party was also indispensable.
Ten years have passed, and those students who studied in the university back then have all gone to the places they wanted to go, upholding their aspirations.
Ruan Kongyin, Liu Can, Zhuge Wangran, and others all joined the military.
After graduation, Ip Man-sin disappeared without a trace. Perhaps only Zhuge Wangran knew her whereabouts—because after graduation, Ip Man-sin became his fiancée.
However, Zhuge Wangran has always remained silent about this matter.
The four who entered the Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm back then reached at least the peak of the ultimate realm, and among them, the most talented Zhuge Wangran and Ye Wenxian even reached the true peak of half-step Grandmaster.
Ruan Kongyin missed the chance to enter the Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm back then due to reasons such as his cultivation level, but his luck was not bad either.
After ten years of cultivation, he has also reached the level of the ultimate attainment of the rudimentary form of the law, and is undoubtedly a chosen one of heaven.
At this moment, the group of people were gathered together because of the Abyss War. Although the atmosphere was not bad, one thought kept lingering in their minds.
What exactly happened to Jiang Wuyuan?
Ten years have passed, and the Apocalypse Secret Realm reopened a year ago.
I wonder if he'll be able to come out with the main group this time...
If they don't come out soon, Chief Xia probably won't be able to stop Nian Zhizun, who always wants to carve a hole into the Heavenly Revelation Secret Realm.
The group of people were both amused and exasperated.
——
Within the special inheritance of the Apocalypse Secret Realm.
At this moment, spiritual liquid surged, and mist swirled.
The colorful lotus flowers floating in mid-air had almost completely melted away, but the glow of the sunset still lingered in the room.
If someone could see through Jiang Wuyuan's soul like the Heavenly Dao, they would find a colorful lotus exactly like his slowly rotating, shining brightly in the vast emptiness of his soul.
A moment later, a thunderous roar was heard.
The sound was not harsh, but rather like a gentle breeze, making everyone feel relaxed and happy.
...
What is the way of the sword?
Jiang Wuyuan once asked his sword spirit teacher this question, and later, Nian Qingfeng also gave him an answer.
However, both of their words were ambiguous and did not provide Jiang Wuyuan with any breakthrough in his understanding.
Today, he finally understood why neither the sword spirit nor Nian Qingfeng had made their point clear.
Because... he wants to walk his own path.
—The way of the sword is my way.
Whether it's offense or defense, whether it's sharpness or restraint.
He is simply himself; he is Jiang Wuyuan.
The sword moves with the will of the heart; the sword is born from my heart.
The Lotus of the Great Dao possesses three thousand laws, yet none of them are his own Dao. However, the essence left behind by his predecessors was a spiritual journey that greatly broadened his horizons.
He understood a lot, but after his thoughts returned, he was just himself again.
This is what it means to return to simplicity and authenticity.
The moment Jiang Wuyuan clarified his path, the lotus flower in his soul shattered inch by inch.
Only after utter destruction can a new life be born!
Buzz—
Although the Lotus of the Great Dao has withered, the laws of the sword have emerged from the ashes.
The energy that was about to dissipate gathered again, forming a huge storm that surrounded the boy.
Within the soul, a golden longsword replaced the lotus flower.
