Lord Shadow

Azief did not realizes it and not even the grandmaster all over this world also did not realize it.

That the energy from heaven is slowly reinforcing this world and slowly affecting the world.

At the same time, the Palm that covered this world is slowly lifted. It was only an inch but the Golden Monk that guard the palm was shocked beyond belief.

This palm could only be moved by wishes, will and determination. What is wish that could move the palm? What is the will that could move the palm? And what is the determination that could move the palm?

The wish is for the whole world to wish for a larger world, to seek the truth of the Universe and beyond it.

The Will is a will to break through all obstacles and the determination that is needed is a determination to break through the Heavens to liberate oneself from covering one eye from falsity.

On the battlefield, blood flowed down the mountains.

The killing was so severe that the soldier’s unit that was helping the spies on the other side of the mountain quickly were ordered by their officers to help the soldiers fighting Azief.

A thick bloody stench filled the mountaintop that alarmed even the other officers and the sight of hills of bodies around the Sword Immortal causes the officers fighting with the orthodox and heterodox sect to send a batch of their people to help the soldiers restraining Sword Immortal.

Azief right now did not notice all this. Azief felt like he had become one with the sword. 

The more he killed, the more he moves his feet and connect it with the movement of his sword, the moment he forgets himself and become the sword itself, become the killing tool, become a tool that fulfilled its purpose and then become empty itself from thoughts, a vast presence and powerful wills urged out from his sword.

The heavenly energy that is slowly accumulating in this world were all gathering toward the mountaintop of the Five Element Mountain.

The surge of this gathering of heavenly energy was so violent and crude that as it gathers, one of the peaks of the Five Element Mountain broke off.

The moment that happens, one of the finger of the palm on top of the Heavens of this world, dissipated, the golden finger turns into golden motes of light as its slowly falls down to the mortal realm from the holes that Azief had made when he was crashing down to the Sealed World.

In the battlefield Azief thrusted his sword forward. Hundreds of people is in front of that thrust.

The moment he thrusted that sword forward, a pure sword energy erupts form the sword.

Azief hair danced in the wind, while his expression is calm and his eyes seems to contain the vastness of heavens.

At that moment, he emanated a presence like he himself was the Heavens, unpredictable, unfathomable, unlimited and limitless.

The presence he gives off become even more grander and larger.

A destructive power rushed out from his sword and then a large explosion sounded out that shakes the mountain.

The edges of the mountaintop collapsed downwards because of the violent shakes.

The wind changed directions because of the pressure and the explosion sound drowned out the sound of the pattering rains dropping into the ground.

On the other side of the mountaintop, the battle between the heterodox sect, the orthodox sect and the imperial spies stopped abruptly as they all covered up their ears and using their own internal energy to block theirs senses

The soundwave created a ripples of powerful shockwave that scattered the rain away making the area around Azief a free water zone.

The thousands of soldiers in front of him saw a blinding light when he thrusted out his sword.

It let off a sound that drones off into the sky. Azief in that one moment felt the worldly energy around him.

Not the way a martial artist would experience it but the way he used to feel it. He smiles for that one brief moment.

He infused that immediately in his strike. The tip of the sword become flat as that energy mixed up with some traces of Laws and Concepts.

There is Laws and Concepts in his thrusting movement. At the same time, he sent a portion of that energy to assault the nine and tenth seal on his ankle

He immediately felt a sensation in his ankle and the smile he tries to hide slowly growing wider.

The seals on both of his ankle broke easily leaving only a translucent mark that is hard to see on his ankle. But it is not broken completely.

He was excited as he could feel that the weight he felt when he began to move is now decreasing.

His energy grows and he could feel that energy around him become even more solid and concentrated.

The Heavens of this world that has long slumbered slowly reemerges back from its slumber.

On the Five Element Mountain, another peak crumbles because of the heavenly energy that keep surging into the area

Now there is only three peaks on the five element mountain.

High above the sky, in the dark space above the Sealed World, the Golden Monk sitting on top of a floating lotus could not help but shocked seeing another finger of the palm dissipated and turning into pure heavenly energy that falls down into the Sealed World.

It nourishes the sealed world and awaken the will of that world.

At the same time this was happening, in a divine mountain covered by thick and numerous clouds, a monkey laughs joyfully at this development, his eyes looking at the Sealed World intently.

On the battlefield in the Sealed World however, that one sword strike creates a resounding sound but while there is an explosion of sound, nothing exploded.

Azief is looking at that sword light as it travels. No land was overturned; no large crater or holes was formed.

Only a sword light that travels too fast for the eyes to see cross past thousands of soldiers that were charging toward him.

That one strike causes a ripple of shockwave that change the course of wind and rain. This time, no one could ignore it.

The battle on top of the mountain have already become so chaotic.

And nothing went according to the plans of the army. The unexpected appearance of the grandmaster and his prowess has already throws a wrench inside the army plans.

And now when this unbelievable thing happened, it stopped the battle at the other side of the mountain, with Xi Feng also stop waving and swinging his sword at the same time

But he did not stop it because what his teacher did. He is stopping it because he had fulfilled his mission.

His sword was stuck deeply into the chest of the last Elder of the Sun Devouring Peak, Elder Wen Zhong.

Lightning bolts flashed the area and illuminate the scene very grimly.

Xi Feng ears is bleeding because of that soundwave but even during that time he did not retract back his attack and instead he uses that confusion to kill Wen Zhong who closes his ears because of that shrieking cry of the sword.

He had his ears bleeding but he managed to stuck his sword inside Wen Zhong chest.

Blood is dripping from his ears and he look towards the direction of his teacher, now that he is more calm.

Around Xi Feng, were countless of corpses of people from Sun Devouring Sect and Vulture Peak.

Xi Feng learns from his teacher. Mean what you say. He vowed that he will kill every member of Vulture Peak and Sun Devouring Sect today and he did what he said he will do

He had killed the last member of the Sun Devouring Sect so he stops killing, and he sighed

There is only weariness in his heart right now.

He looks once again toward the direction of his teacher and thought to himself

‘Is this heaviness is also something that master also felt?’

Right now while there is water falling from the sky, around them right now for a brief moment there is no water to drench them wet

The rain around them were push away by that shocking shockwave before a new cycle of rains finally dropped again on them, washing the blood of the people they killed.

Every person on this other side of the mountaintop wanted to stop fighting now.

They are tired.

And they have been too many people that have been killed. Some of them is their own members of their sects, some of them are friends they used to trust and some of them are their true enemies.

Regardless of who they are and whose side they are on, everyone is weary

People heart could grow weary and might be tempted to fall into the demonic path after killing so many people as such no one could help but feel fatigued
