Chapter 548: Sword Immortal of the Mortal World
Zhou Ping’s black robe rustled in the howling wind as he stood at the forefront of the Nimbus Cloud, his eyes bright and sharp as swords, filled with determination that pierced the heavens!
He lifted his head to gaze at the sky, his pure and profound eyes seeming to see through the surface of the world, perceiving the void, reflecting all the laws of this realm.
He saw it.
Deep within this vast and boundless world, laws were woven in the invisible void, maintaining the operation of the entire world. These laws seemed to be divided by some force, scattered across different regions.
One dark law was divided into dozens of parts, with only a few occupying the largest shares: the Dark of Great Xia, the Dark of India, the Dark of Northern Europe, the Dark of Greece, and so on…
The laws of fire, thunder, life, and time… These laws, which appeared at the dawn of the world, had almost all been divided among different deities. Many deities governed the same type of laws, yet each was distinct.
At this moment, Zhou Ping understood much.
The so-called deities were the supreme beings born with the power to wield laws.
But in this world, there were only so many laws. Even if Zhou Ping broke through that ceiling and stepped into a realm never before touched by humanity, gaining the power to wield laws… which deity would relinquish their laws to him?
None.
In this world, there was not a single law that belonged to him, nor one that belonged to humanity.
Even if he entered this realm, there were no laws he could use.
Zhou Ping stood on the cloud, staring into the void for a long time, as still as a statue.
He was contemplating.
He was the first human to step into this realm.
As Bai Li Pang Pang said, countless people were watching his back, struggling yet resolute, taking one step after another forward.
If he stopped here, it would mean that humanity breaking through this ceiling would be of no use!
Humanity would also stop here…
Slaying gods would ultimately be a mere fantasy.
This was not what he wanted.
He wanted to find a way out for humanity!!
Finally, Zhou Ping seemed to think of something. He raised his hand, and a brilliant sword light erupted from his eyes!
The surging sword intent erupted from him, and above the nine heavens, vast sword energy coalesced from the void, like the rolling Yellow River pouring down to the mortal realm!
Lin Qiye and the others on the Nimbus Cloud were suppressed under this terrifying sword energy, unable to move an inch.
The sword light in Zhou Ping’s eyes grew ever brighter, and an unprecedented determination appeared on his face.
Since,
There were no laws belonging to humanity in this world,
Then today…
I shall carve a law that belongs solely to humanity upon the great path!
“Lin Qiye!!”
Amidst the wave of sword energy, Zhou Ping shouted loudly.
“Here!”
“Bring me the sword!”
Lin Qiye was momentarily stunned, then quickly reacted, summoning the 【Qiyuan】 long sword and throwing it towards Zhou Ping at the center of the sword energy.
Zhou Ping grasped the sword hilt with his left hand,
Ding——!!!
Countless sword sounds erupted from the void,
Zhou Ping looked up at the sky, his blood-stained black robe fluttering in the sword energy,
He held the sword in his left hand and lightly swung it in that ethereal great path!
The astonishing sword intent soared into the sky!!
On the great path woven with countless laws, a sword light suddenly emerged from the void, striking heavily at a certain corner!
This sword light surged violently, with countless sword energies rolling upon it, tearing through the unshakeable great path. Each sword energy could only leave a shallow mark on the surface of the great path, but beneath the massive amount of sword energy, a fierce and chilling sword scar slowly emerged!
A faint aura of law emanated from the sword scar.
Unlike other laws, this law had not been divided by any deity. Though weak, it was remarkably complete.
Zhou Ping held the long sword, gazing up at the faint sword scar on the great path, a smile appearing on his face.
Although this sword scar was small compared to other grand and powerful laws, like a child’s playful scratch, there was no doubt that it had indeed become a law!
It was a law that had never existed in this world!
It was the first and only law belonging to humanity.
Its name was:
—— Sword.
Its creator was Zhou Ping.
The Sword Saint of Great Xia, Zhou Ping.
…
In Egypt, the Sun City.
“Hmm?”
The shadow standing on the Sun God Pillar seemed to sense something, suddenly looking up at the sky, its eyes seemingly perceiving all things, staring at a corner of the void.
A look of astonishment appeared on the indistinct face.
“A new law aura? How is this possible…”
…
In Northern Europe, Asgard.
Within the magnificent and sacred palace, an ancient one-eyed elder slowly opened his eyes atop a hundred-meter-high white divine throne.
He too gazed at the great path of the world, and after a long while, he slowly closed his eyes.
“Humans, huh…”
…
In Greece, Olympus.
Atop the peak of the mountains, on the golden throne,
An old man with a bare upper body, his body filled with explosive muscles, gasped in surprise, and the golden scepter in his hand trembled slightly.
Crack—!!
A fierce thunderbolt streaked across the sky.
“Great Xia?” he murmured to himself.
He slowly stood up, looking at the faint sword scar on the great path, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“A dangerous nation… the plan must be advanced.”
…
In India, the Temple of the Gods.
In the center of this grand temple suspended in the sky, the towering, entirely golden statue with four heads and four arms trembled slightly.
Some dust fell from its body.
Among the four faces, the eyes of one face slowly opened,
“Destruction…”
This voice echoed in the vast temple.
…
Apart from Great Xia, the divine realms of the gods existing in the world sensed the emergence of this sword scar.
Though it was merely a trivial sword scar, it stirred the tranquil and unfathomable waters, causing hidden currents to surge.
Mist.
At the moment the sword scar appeared on the great path, Zhou Ping’s aura surged upward, his existence seemingly transcending the level of humanity, a faint pressure emanating from him.
That was divine might!
The divine pressure radiating from a human.
At this moment, the Sword Saint of Great Xia, Zhou Ping, had already stepped into the realm of deities!
Lin Qiye and the others, who witnessed the entire process, showed expressions of surprise. Although they did not understand what Zhou Ping had just done, judging from the pressure emanating from him, it was clear that Zhou Ping had succeeded.
“Sword Saint senior…” Lin Qiye tentatively asked, “Are you still the ceiling of humanity now?”
Zhou Ping placed one hand on his chest, seemingly feeling something. After a moment, he smiled and spoke:
“Humanity no longer has a ceiling.”
“Then what is your current realm?” Bai Li Pang Pang asked curiously, “Is it the divine realm?”
“Pretty much.” Zhou Ping paused, “But I don’t like the name of this realm.”
“What should it be called?”
Zhou Ping hesitated for a moment,
Gazed at the sword in his hand,
And slowly spoke:
“This realm is different for everyone. Different people wield different powers of law, and the names of the realms should also differ…
For me, this realm should be named,
【Red Dust Sword Immortal】.”
