Chapter 69 Choice
After a moment's hesitation, Lin Tianhe looked intently at Ye Feng, his voice tinged with a hint of probing.
It wasn't that he didn't believe in the talent of the person in front of him; a Sword Empress in her mid-twenties was already enough to prove many things.
However, the Sword Emperor realm is, after all, a legendary realm. Even in the ancient and legendary Great Thousand World, it is considered quite powerful. Yet, for tens of thousands of years, no one in this world has been able to set foot in this realm...
"While I'm not entirely certain, there's still an 80-90% chance..."
Ye Feng smiled calmly and nodded, not giving a definitive answer.
"Eighty to ninety percent..."
Lin Tianhe trembled and muttered in a daze.
Seeing this, Ye Feng raised his long, slender hand slightly, and a sword cry immediately resounded within his body, as a cyan sword soul phantom slowly emerged from behind him.
hum!
The moment the phantom of the sword soul appeared, the entire hall trembled, and a powerful and fierce pressure spread out, causing the sword souls within Lin Tianhe and the other two to feel a sense of submission.
"This...this is a Heavenly-level Sword Soul..."
"Not just beginner level... but perfect..."
Lin Tianhe didn't pause for long before taking a deep breath, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"A sword soul at the peak of the Heavenly level? How is that possible...?"
"..."
Beside Lin Tianhe, the two Supreme Elders of the Nine Swords Sect also stared blankly, their hearts filled with shock.
In the Sword Continent, the level of the sword soul condensed during cultivation determines the upper limit of future achievements. Although this statement is somewhat absolute, it is limited by the rules of heaven and earth.
A Heavenly-level Sword Soul is one in ten thousand, just like a Sword Emperor. For tens of thousands of years, no one has been able to condense a Sword Soul of this quality.
Most of the Sword Emperors in this world have Sword Souls at the Earth level. Even the strongest late-stage Sword Emperors are only at the Earth level.
The sword soul of the person before him was not of ordinary Heaven-level quality; it had actually reached the Perfection stage.
Although they had never seen a sword spirit of this caliber before, the sword spirit's aura and the incredibly piercing sword patterns were enough to convince them.
"No wonder you are so confident that you can condense a sword soul of such quality."
Lin Tianhe slowly came to his senses and looked at Ye Feng with some awe.
In the Sword Continent, the quality of a sword soul is inextricably linked to the breakthrough to the Sword Emperor realm. A perfect Heaven-level sword soul means that Ye Feng has a very high chance of reaching that level.
"If it weren't for that, Ye Feng wouldn't have dared to disturb you. He planned to enter your sect's cultivation secret realm in order to break through to the Sword Emperor realm as soon as possible."
Ye Feng's smile remained unchanged as he spoke in a calm voice.
He did not explain the special physique of the Innate Sword Body to the group. This physique, which had not appeared for many years, was not known to everyone, even among the Sword Emperors of this world.
Su Zhen, Jiang Qingcang, and the others knew this because Su Zhen had obtained some records from the ancient ruins. They were all members of the Burning Heaven Sword Sect and had exchanged information with each other.
The innate sword physique, this supreme constitution, is the key to his ability to condense a perfect Heaven-level sword soul, far surpassing the people of this world.
"In this world, the quality of a sword spirit determines the upper limit of future achievements; this is no exaggeration."
Lin Tianhe suppressed the shock in his heart and replaced it with a strong sense of joy.
The bottlenecks and limitations existing in the Sword Continent may not be without solutions in the Great Thousand Worlds. Their current sword qi cultivation system is derived from the closure of the plane.
The fact that the person before them now has the potential to reach that level is no less than an opportunity for them and for everyone on the Sword Continent.
However, none of the ancient Sword Emperors ever came to the interdimensional passage to break the shackles of this world. Even if the people before us have hope, what the future holds is ultimately full of uncertainty.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianhe's heart sank again.
In terms of sect lineage, the Nine Separation Sword Sect is far more ancient than the Burning Heaven Sword Sect, and its founding ancestor was a Sword Emperor.
Although over the years, everything about the sect's founder has vanished along with each generation of Sword Emperors, there are still some scattered records.
However, they have no choice now but to take a gamble. The lifespan of a Sword Emperor is only eight hundred years, which is ultimately too short.
Rather than perish in vain, it's better to give it a try. Besides, even if they don't use the Nine Separation Secret Realm, it's unlikely that the energy within it can be kept abundant indefinitely.
The sparse energy of the outside world will bring about a series of chain reactions. The Sword Continent is like a closed space, and the energy within it is decreasing with each use. It is only a matter of time before it reaches the limit that this world can bear.
"What do you seniors think?"
Seeing Lin Tianhe's changing expression, Ye Feng didn't think much of it and asked again.
If the logic is sound, there's no need to force it or use strength to oppress. If possible, he hopes to make this land his foundation in the vast world.
Building a power base in this vast world is no easy task, and this world is not short of manpower.
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianhe let out a soft breath, exchanged a glance with the two Supreme Elders, and both made their decisions.
"You may enter the Nine Separation Secret Realm to cultivate, young friend."
Lin Tianhe solemnly agreed, and then burst into laughter.
"I only hope that when you achieve success in the future, my young friend, you will not forget the help that my Nine Depart Sword Sect provided today."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng withdrew his exposed sword spirit and returned the greeting with a cupped hand.
"I will remember the kindness of the three seniors and the Nine Swords Sect in helping me today, and I will never break my promise in the future."
Lin Tianhe and the other two agreed. He was not surprised by this outcome. Once they entered the Nine Separation Secret Realm, breaking through to the Sword Emperor Perfection Realm would be just around the corner.
At that time, he will be able to glimpse the mysteries of this world and attempt to break through to the Sword Emperor realm.
Reaching that level marks the true beginning of one's journey in this vast world.
Below the supreme being, all are but ants; this statement is not an exaggeration in that realm.
"To be honest, young friend, we had no choice. If you were in our shoes, you would have made the same choice."
"You should have anticipated this outcome when you came to the Nine Swords Sect."
Lin Tianhe spoke frankly, his voice filled with sighs.
The main reason he and the two elders agreed was their own interests. Without the temptation of connecting to the vast world and changing their own limitations, they would not have allowed an outsider to enter the Nine Separation Sword Sect's inheritance grounds.
The Nine Realms Secret Realm, although its energy can be replenished, the energy absorbed by a late-stage Sword Emperor who breaks through to the peak of Sword Emperor realm within it is enough to render that space unusable for a very long time.
And this is still the best outcome. If one cannot break through, it is a waste of energy. In this world, there are often bottlenecks in cultivation. The late stage of the Sword Empress is already the strongest in the world.
Since the Cangming Sword Saint of the Eastern Sword Land five thousand years ago, the Sword Continent has not seen a powerful figure who has reached the peak of the Sword Emperor realm for a very long time.
