Chen Tian and Chen Feng rested for a few days in the room. Chen Feng also adapted to the laws of the Dark Realm. One day, Chen Tian looked at Chen Feng with a serious expression. He asked, "Are you really okay? Do you need to rest for a while longer?"
"It's fine. I'll go to the Illusory Demon Continent. Your mission is to save the Divine Realm and your own world first. I will help save the other worlds. Don't worry about the Illusory Demon Continent; I will do my best to complete it."
Chen Feng's eyes were filled with determination. Chen Tian knew that once Chen Feng made up his mind, he couldn't be stopped. It was the same way he single-handedly drew away the Evil Spirit Clan, allowing Chen Tian to ascend to the position of Divine Lord. Clearly, Chen Feng was more suitable than Chen Tian, but Chen Feng's personality made him unable to accept the position of Divine Lord.
Chen Tian clasped his hands, and a black sphere of energy appeared before Chen Feng. Chen Tian said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, if you show this black sphere to the Illusory Demons, they will surrender. So, you must ensure that you don't put yourself in danger. The Illusory Demons will be of great use to me in the future, so try to avoid too many casualties."
Chen Feng sensed the aura of the black light sphere. This aura did not belong to the Divine Realm. Chen Tian had secrets he didn't know, but he wouldn't inquire. Chen Tian was his brother, and that was enough. Chen Feng took the light sphere, and they both vanished from the room.
Before the passage to the Illusory Demon Continent, Chen Tian looked at the vortex with a grave expression. "This time you're going, I don't know when we'll meet again. So, I hope you try not to fall into desperate situations."
"I promise you."
Chen Feng stepped into the vortex, heading for the Illusory Demon Continent. Chen Tian, on the other hand, went in the opposite direction. Chen Feng's trip to the Illusory Demon Continent was his own decision and was also to help Chen Tian. Chen Tian could barely manage one world, let alone multiple worlds; there simply wasn't enough time to manage everything. Chen Feng's actions were clearly to alleviate Chen Tian's pressure.
This was beneficial to Chen Tian. He could take this opportunity to obtain the Floating Dust Sword. He had originally planned to deal with the Illusory Demon Continent before going for the Floating Dust Sword, but now it seemed he had to hurry. Chen Tian only had three days left. After three days, he would be expelled from the Dark Realm. However, Chen Tian was confused as to why the Dark Realm and the Divine Realm had a time limit while other worlds did not. Was it due to the game's uniqueness, or had the Dark Realm undergone some special changes with the game "Epoch of Time"?
In any case, Chen Tian understood and didn't dwell on it. He sensed the aura within the Dark Realm. The Floating Dust Sword was Chen Tian's second personal sword in the Divine Realm. The sword only changed upon sensing Chen Tian's arrival. No one had been able to claim it as their own, perhaps because the sword spirit was still waiting for Chen Tian.
Only Chen Tian could make the Floating Dust Sword acknowledge him as its master. As for anyone else, forget it.
Chen Tian pinpointed the exact location of the Floating Dust Sword. A beam of light shot straight into the sky. Chen Tian looked at the beam of light, sensing its aura. It was indeed the one.
Chen Tian quickly moved towards the beam of light, which indicated the location of the Floating Dust Sword. The sword, sensing Chen Tian's presence, became excited and radiated light.
In the Dark Realm, on Yin Yang Mountain, the left peak was black, and the right peak was white. The two peaks converged in the center to form a massive mountain. The black and white mountains intertwined, and a brilliant white beam of light shot from the center into the sky. Sword intent surged, and sword qi transformed into gusts of wind that enveloped the entire valley.
Countless cultivators had gathered here, including players from the Divine Realm. To these players, everyone present was a fellow player, and they never imagined that these individuals were cultivators from other worlds.
Of course, when players from the Divine Realm entered the Dark Realm, their levels were converted to cultivation realms. The highest-level players could become cultivators of the third realm, and their aura was undeniable.
After all, no one wanted mere mortals to enter this place. Those who came here were all those Chen Tian had gathered. The system was comprehensive. In the game "Epoch of Time," by the end, these players would become humanity's fighting force.
Chen Tian arrived and looked at the valley before him, stepping directly into it. Everyone dared not move, as the sword qi and wind posed too great a threat to them.
This also implicitly suggested that the treasure within was worth the risk. Now, they dared not move, hoping someone would test the sword qi and wind first. No one dared to step forward; life was precious.
"Sister, does that sword have such immense power?"
"Heaven, what kind of treasure is this? I can actually feel a sense of death from it."
"No, this sword intent... could it be an ultimate treasure sword within?"
A group of people chattered amongst themselves. Facing the sword intent and wind, the contained energy was indescribable. Many wanted to retreat. A player stepped forward, his body enveloped in a protective shield. He was a man. Just as he was about to enter the valley, Chen Tian's voice rang out, warning him: "I advise you not to step in. Death here is irreversible."
"Boy, what did you say?"
The man heard Chen Tian's warning that death was irreversible. He then opened his interface, which only players could see, not other cultivators. Upon seeing a special symbol, the man stopped.
Chen Tian walked out and stood before everyone. He looked at them and said calmly, "Leave. What's inside is not yours."
"Boy, you are so arrogant. Do you mean that thing is yours?"
"Indeed!"
"I've never seen such a shameless person. Why don't you say the entire valley belongs to you?"
"If you have the ability, make that thing come out on its own!"
Chen Tian's words immediately caused a stir. Chen Tian curved his lips. Very well, he would let them give up.
Chen Tian opened his palm and shouted, "Sword, come!"
The center of the entire valley shook violently. The commotion was so great that the beam of light vanished. A white radiance shot out from the valley and landed in Chen Tian's hand with a whistling sound. In Chen Tian's hand was a broken sword. Chen Tian looked at the sword, broken in two, and felt the situation within him. His mind was filled with memories.
This sword had once accompanied him through countless hardships, helped him defeat countless enemies, and defended the world. Now, it was in such a dilapidated state?
Even the sword spirit within was incomplete. Chen Tian stroked the sword body. The sword no longer glowed; the sword spirit's last vestige of strength had run out. The long sword lost its brilliance. Chen Tian sighed with emotion, "Don't worry, I will make you shine brightly again."
Chen Tian placed the sword at his waist and walked out without paying attention to the expressions of the crowd. They couldn't believe it had been acknowledged so easily. It seemed the weapon truly belonged to him, but why was it here?
As Chen Tian was leaving, two figures blocked his path. They were two young men. The one on the left had a scar on his face, and the one on the right had a birthmark.
The two spoke, "Boy, hand over that sword."
"This is my thing. Why should I hand it over?"
"Boy, do you think I can't tell? The sword spirit is gone. Anyone can take this sword now. Do you think you are qualified to use this sword?"
This sentence immediately made Chen Tian a target.
The disappearance of the sword spirit meant that the sword had lost its spiritual essence and was like an ordinary weapon, with no usage restrictions as long as it was in hand.
Chen Tian was instantly surrounded. Chen Tian shook his head. Why couldn't he be low-key anywhere he went?
If others knew Chen Tian's thoughts, they would be speechless.
This was not being low-key at all! This was clearly a high-profile approach.
Chen Tian's face turned cold. "Do you really want to fight?"
"Stop with the nonsense. Hand it over, or my brother and I will not be polite."
The young men clearly lost their patience and attacked without waiting for Chen Tian's reply.
Facing the young men's attack, Chen Tian's expression remained calm. A cultivator of the mere third realm attacking him was seeking death.
