Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 635 - 629: Sword Control Technique

The top scorer in the preliminary competition would receive three thousand trial points. Ye Xuan had no interest in empty fame; it was these points that he cared about.

"Kid, come with me for a moment."

Just as Ye Xuan was basking in the worshipful and astonished gazes of those around him, Yu beckoned him over, indicating she wanted a word.

Regarding the enigmatic Yu, Ye Xuan did not dare neglect her, and obediently followed her.

Once they were in a private chamber, Yu finally looked at Ye Xuan and revealed a charming smile, saying, "Ye Xuan, are you interested in joining the Heavenly Martial Holy Land and becoming a disciple of the Heavenly Martial Holy Land?"

Yu was very direct, extending an olive branch to Ye Xuan straight away.

"Heavenly Martial Holy Land?"

Ye Xuan was stunned, a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes. Heavenly Martial Holy Land, although he did not know much about it, he still understood that it was a Seventh Grade Sect in the Central Domain and quite mysterious. As for anything more, he was unaware.

"That’s right,"

Yu nodded, her gaze as though enticing him into crime, tantalizing Ye Xuan, "What do you think? Are you interested?"

"But I am already a disciple of the Xuantian Sect."

Ye Xuan furrowed his brow slightly. To be honest, even a Seventh Grade Sect did not attract him much.

"That doesn’t matter. Xuantian Sect is just a Sixth Grade Sect. Being its disciple does not conflict with joining the Heavenly Martial Holy Land."

Yu shook her head, then continued, "I can arrange for the Xuantian Sect to come under the command of the Heavenly Martial Holy Land. That way, your joining us would be completely justified."

"Wow, that’s quite the bold move!"

Ye Xuan was taken aback. Xuantian Sect, after all, was a Sixth Grade Sect. To just subordinate it under another’s command? While this might be an unspoken rule of the Spirit Martial Continent, Yu’s tone carried an implicit, overbearing air.

"Xuantian Sect has offended Emperor Xi Sect and is now in a precarious state. If the Heavenly Martial Holy Land were to take Xuantian Sect under its wing, it might offend Emperor Xi Sect," Ye Xuan ventured.

"Is that so?"

Yu appeared to consider this for a moment but then quickly came to a conclusion, dismissively saying, "If we offend them, so be it. A mere Emperor Xi Sect wouldn’t dare disrespect us."

"Alright then."

Ye Xuan felt somewhat surprised. Both being Seventh Grade Sects, Yu didn’t seem to take Emperor Xi Sect seriously at all? Thinking about joining such a sect, it seemed there was no harm, and he could agree.

And for Xuantian Sect, wouldn’t this be a blessing? To receive protection from another Seventh Grade Sect, they wouldn’t have to tremble in fear of Emperor Xi Sect any longer.

"Very well, it’s settled then. Prepare yourself, and in three days, return with me to the Heavenly Martial Holy Land." Persuading Ye Xuan to join the Heavenly Martial Holy Land, Yu was clearly quite pleased. This was a good seedling; it was better to secure him early rather than let other sects benefit from their loss.

"Okay."

Ye Xuan no longer felt any attachment to the Eight Great Spirit Domains. The Central Domain, that was the grander stage, and he would have had to go there sooner or later. It was just that Yu had made him advance his timeline a bit.

As the heart of the Spirit Martial Continent, the power of the Central Domain always seemed shrouded in a layer of fog, elusive and mysterious, giving off a feeling of mystique and majesty.

It was well known that the Central Domain had the most Seventh Grade Sects. There, the cultivation environment was exceptional, with powerhouses emerging like shoots after a spring rain. Even Martial Saint level fighters, in the Central Domain, could not be considered unparalleled.

The Central Domain, where the martial spirit thrived, and geniuses were produced in abundance, was the true haven for cultivation.

In the venue, the buzzing of voices still hadn’t ceased, with discussions about Ye Xuan everywhere. The stir caused by the final battle had yet to subside.

After today, the name Ye Xuan would surely spread throughout the Eight Great Spirit Domains, stunning the world.

A once obscure young man had suddenly become a legendary figure renowned throughout the world. Such a tremendous leap was enough to make countless martial artists sigh with admiration.

...

After the preliminary rounds had ended, Ye Xuan temporarily settled in Unsullied City. Barely had the competition finished when numerous people came to visit him, an endless stream of strangers, like Zhang San from the Fire Domain, Li Si from the South Pole Domain, Wang Wu from the White Dragon Domain, all of them unknown to him, all trying to establish a connection.

Ye Xuan naturally found this bothersome. He immediately found a place to hide, not letting anyone know his whereabouts, which finally brought him some peace.

In a clean room, Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on a wooden bed, eyes closed, regulating his breath.

Having gone through the preliminaries, Ye Xuan had gained immensely. After crossing swords with the geniuses from the Eight Great Spirit Domains, he had not come away empty-handed. Especially in the latter matches, he almost always had some epiphanies. During his final match against Qin Wuyan, Ye Xuan gained even more insights. Many ingenious combat moves were actually conceived during and after battles, with powerful techniques often created in a mere instant.

The Earth Core Cold Fire had been completely integrated. What Ye Xuan was doing now was practicing and perfecting his Sword Control Technique.

In the course of exchanging blows with the star swordsman Luo Zhen, Ye Xuan inadvertently used a sword control move, but his version couldn’t really be considered true Sword Control Skill, let alone using the heart to control the sword.

Although Ye Xuan’s soul power was already formidable, the strength of the Sword Control Skill was only one aspect. More important was the bond between the person and the sword, the realm of Human Sword Unity.

The Sword Control Technique, being the ultimate expression of Human Sword Unity, was derived only after reaching the pinnacle.

And the practice of the Sword Control Technique has always been the most difficult among sword techniques. It was nearly impossible to perfect the Sword Control Skill in a short time.

"Unsheathe!"

With a gesture from his sword fingers, Ye Xuan’s Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword automatically unsheathed, shooting out like a beam of light. It pierced through the door in an instant and embedded itself fiercely in a boulder a hundred steps away in the backyard. The speed was more than double that of when he had dueled with Luo Zhen.

"Not bad."

Ye Xuan was quite satisfied with the speed of the soaring sword, but Sword Control Skill involved more than just direct stabbing.

With a "whoosh", at the thought of Ye Xuan, the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword flew out from the boulder. Between the flicks of his middle and index fingers, the sword light danced wildly. In a flash, it slashed the boulder dozens of times.

Crack, crack...

After enduring such fierce sword light, the rock formation, like a wasp’s nest, couldn’t support its weight and collapsed, sending dust flying everywhere.

"Resheathe!"

With a flick of Ye Xuan’s fingers, the azure sword light flickered and transformed back into a precious sword, returning to its scabbard.

"It’s finally a bit powerful."

Ye Xuan wasn’t resting on his laurels; the ultimate level of Sword Control Technique was for one person to command a hundred swords, each capable of executing deadly sword moves, with a hundred swords striking simultaneously, slaying gods and Buddhas on sight.

However, reaching such a level was exceedingly difficult, needing profound exploration into the Sword Dao, and Ye Xuan was far from there.

It was said that in the Heavenly Realm, there was someone who with just a thought could wield ten thousand swords, and with his Divine Power manifest ten thousand Divine Swords, creating a world belonging solely to swords. On the path of the Sword Dao, he had attained otherworldly mastery, coming incredibly close to the Heavenly Dao.

This person was known as the Sword God.

In his previous life, Ye Xuan had never seen this Sword God, but the latter was indeed a legendary figure whom Ye Xuan deeply admired. Rising from a lower realm known as True Dragon World, he had swept across countless talents of various Heavenly Realms, ascended to godhood, and now had become a towering presence in the Heavenly Realm, establishing the Sword God Palace. His four wives were also not ordinary figures, each possessing considerable fame in the Heavenly Realm.
