However, even with the activation of the second layer, Ye Wushuang remained unconscious, unable to take control of his own body. With no other options at hand, Ye Wushuang simply materialized his consciousness and sat cross-legged within the second layer, beginning to familiarize himself with the sword energies there…
Gradually, Ye Wushuang discovered that although these sword energies seemed to be intimately connected to him, the maximum number he could command was ten. These ten sword energies, when separated, exuded a terrifying aura of killing intent; when gathered together, they became even more formidable.
As Ye Wushuang gradually gained control over them, he found himself lost in thought. The primal force within the first layer could serve as his trump card, and so could these sword energies. The sheer power contained within each strand of sword energy was truly awe-inspiring.
With increasing proficiency in controlling the sword energies, Ye Wushuang’s curiosity about the floating divine sword grew stronger. What kind of divine sword could possibly be worthy of being stored alone in the second layer of the Ninefold Spirit-Taming Pagoda?
Suddenly, as Ye Wushuang was integrating with the sword energies, a resounding heavenly voice echoed in his mind.
“Ninefold Yuanxu Sword!”
“Condense the energy of the ninefold essence.”
“Summon the sword of the void.”
“Slash through the heavens and earth, and slay the divine!”
The four phrases resonated in his ears, nearly shattering his spirit. Even as the former Emperor of the Heavens, who had seen countless wonders in his past life, Ye Wushuang was utterly astounded at this moment. This divine artifact from beyond the Azure Heavens was indeed… inestimable.
But in an instant, Ye Wushuang calmed down.
“Even if you are the stars and the sun and moon in the skies, if I desire you, you shall submit to me!”
“Ninefold Yuanxu Sword… one day, you will belong to me completely!”
With a resolute gaze, Ye Wushuang continued to attempt to condense the sword energies. The Yuanxu Sword energies, condensed from the Ninefold Yuanxu Sword, he must fully master. When used unexpectedly in a critical moment, they could unleash a terrifyingly destructive force.
Faced with the mysteries of the unknown Ninefold Spirit-Taming Pagoda, Ye Wushuang felt no fear, but rather, he was filled with fighting spirit. To simply follow the path of his past life would be far too dull. The more challenges there were, the more he could prove that he could surpass his former self!
And when he finally stepped into the Azure Heavens once again, the nine great emperors… would tremble in anticipation!
…
While Ye Wushuang was unconscious, rapid changes were also taking place within the Flowing Moon City. At the same time, a letter, carried by a messenger hawk, arrived at the Qingyun Pavilion in the capital of the Qingyun Empire.
The Qingyun Empire, established for a thousand years, had the royal Qing clan as its most prominent family. Five hundred years ago, under the leadership of Ye Wentian, the Ye clan had reached its zenith. Unfortunately, Ye Wentian’s disappearance led to the decline of the Ye clan. Many had said that if the Ye clan still stood, the royal family of the Qingyun Empire might have been replaced.
The Qingyun Pavilion itself was originally created by the royal family as a trading house for elixirs. Over time, it expanded its business to include spiritual weapons, spiritual arrays, and even the trading of information.
The Qingyun Pavilion was initially established to counter the Holy Elixir Pavilion. The Holy Elixir Pavilion was not founded by a force within the Qingyun Empire, but by a powerful sect from beyond its borders. When it first appeared, the Holy Elixir Pavilion had squeezed out many of the large and small elixir trading houses within the Qingyun Empire, even monopolizing over ninety percent of the empire’s elixir trade.
Seeing this, the royal family founded the Qingyun Pavilion and strongly supported it, allowing it to stand toe-to-toe with the Holy Elixir Pavilion. However, after several hundred years, although the Qingyun Pavilion had indeed grown stronger, it still lagged behind the Holy Elixir Pavilion.
Fortunately, the existence of the Qingyun Pavilion prevented the Holy Elixir Pavilion from completely dominating the elixir trade within the Qingyun Empire. Upon closer reflection, it was understandable. The Holy Elixir Pavilion had the backing of a transcendent force from outside the empire, while the Qingyun Pavilion was supported by the royal family. Their backgrounds were entirely different.
Although the royal family was undoubtedly the most powerful clan within the Qingyun Empire, how could it compare to the formidable forces beyond its borders?
