However, the Grandmaster Realm focused more on the comprehension of one’s Domain.

The deeper your control over your Domain, the more powerful your combat strength would be. A simple increase in cultivation realm would not provide as obvious a boost to combat strength, but it was not completely without benefit.

The accumulation of cultivation was extremely slow.

Without ample resources, ordinary rogue cultivators had to accumulate power over long years just to raise their realms.

Now, with the help of the Perfect Spirit Gathering Formation, the time needed for this accumulation would be greatly shortened.

Moreover, once his cultivation realm increased, the power of the Thirteen Heaven-Shattering Swords he executed would be even more potent. This would also provide a significant boost to his overall strength.

But he was now an existence at the Grandmaster Realm, and the spiritual energy he required was a massive ocean.

The spiritual energy in the courtyard was still too sparse. For his current self, it was nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

To gather enough spiritual energy to push his cultivation to Grandmaster Perfection, he was afraid he would have to let the formation accumulate for a full month.

During this period, it would be better to strengthen his control over the Time Domain. Then, in a month, he could break through to Grandmaster Peak in one fell swoop.

In Inkwood Academy, Adam sat by the window. He picked up the historical record from his desk and was just about to read when a loud boom came from the street, almost making him drop the book.

"What happened?!"

Hearing the commotion outside, the academy instantly erupted into an uproar.

"Look quickly, someone is fighting in the void! That noise just now was caused by those experts."

A sharp-eyed official pointed at the high sky, shouting loudly at the three figures standing in mid-air.

To think there would actually be people fighting in the void right in the capital! Who exactly were they, to be so incredibly bold? Were they truly not afraid of the Night Watch Bureau?

A bit of curiosity rose in Adam’s heart as well. He opened the window and looked up at the sky.

High above, three figures stood suspended in the air.

One carried a longsword on his back, his face looked refined and easygoing, but his eyes were extremely sharp. His entire body exuded a terrifying sword intent, like a divine weapon hidden in its sheath.

Fighting against him were a man and a woman. Their attire was also bizarre: one wore an entirely white robe, and the other an entirely black robe.

That elder with the sword on his back was also incredible. Even fighting one against two, he did not fall at a disadvantage in the slightest, and his sword moves were fierce, possessing both offense and defense.

With a horizontal sweep of his sword, sword qi rippled across a dozen miles. Fortunately, this was taking place high in the sky.

If these people fought with their full strength on the streets of the capital, the mere aftershocks would be enough to destroy more than half of the capital’s populace.

What a powerful sword cultivator! Just from watching the battle for a short while, Adam’s Comprehension of the Sword Dao had deepened by a fraction.

He did not know who this person was, but to possess such attainments in the Sword Dao, this person was definitely no ordinary figure in Silver Willow. Adam sighed with emotion in his heart.

Indeed, there was always a higher mountain, and always someone better.

Fortunately, ever since he transmigrated to Silver Willow, his persistent thought had been to stay put in Inkwood Academy.

If he had been the slightest bit arrogant and wanted to go out and adventure, given his current cultivation, bumping into any of these three would very likely result in his defeat and death.

Unless he reached Grandmaster Peak. Relying on his Time Domain and two supreme ultimate techniques, he would have a very high probability of fighting across realms and defeating these three.

"What a powerful sword cultivator! Who knows who this person is, to have reached such a level of attainment in the Sword Dao."

"Indeed! A sword cultivator with such strength... Even in the Sword Sect, where Sword Dao experts are everywhere, besides the Sword Sect Master, no one would dare say they could suppress this person."

"Never mind that sword cultivator. These two unknown powerhouses, one in black and one in white, are actually able to fight him for so long without falling at a disadvantage. That is also extremely incredible."

The battle between the three grew increasingly intense, and the officials watching began to critique and discuss the fight.

"Brother colleagues, your words just now truly disappoint me! To think you actually don’t recognize such a Sword Dao figure. I am ashamed to associate with you."

An official named Max stepped forward, his face full of arrogance, as if he had a very good relationship with that Sword Dao expert.

"Oh? Brother Max, could it be you recognize that expert? Please point out his identity and let us broaden our horizons!"

The gathered officials dispersed to both sides, letting Max come to the very front.

Max, who usually did not have much presence in the academy, saw everyone’s gaze gathered on him. He could not help but hold his head high, puff out his chest, and stride forward.

"Years ago, I once had the honor of meeting this Sword Dao expert. Later, I learned from his fellow disciples that this Sword Sect expert is the seventh of the Seven Sons of the Sword Sect, Senior Desolate Sword."

It was actually Desolate Sword from the Sword Sect! A flash of shock crossed Adam’s eyes.

Three hundred years ago, after the Sword Sect’s founding patriarch Arthur died in battle, the Sword Sect did not decline.

Instead, a generation of Sword Dao talents emerged.

Over those three hundred years, the Sword Sect produced countless Sword Dao prodigies. Among them, seven achieved the highest accomplishments, and these seven were known as the Seven Sons of the Sword Sect.

The current Sword Sect Master was the head of the Seven Sons, his cultivation had reached the Mortal Supreme realm. Even looking at the entirety of Silver Willow dynasty, he was enough to rank in the top ten.
