Chapter 2459 - 2426: Dari Swordsman and Financial Destiny True Immortal

The Dari Swordsman does not only exist within the Great Sun Heavenly Pond, but also exists within the Endless Starry Sky!

Fire and Demonic is the grinding of the sword; it is the first gift the First Generation Great Sun Sword Master left to those who came after, the first Sharpening Stone that can be obtained without any toil.

In the far vaster Endless Starry Sky, at every moment a cruel slaughter is unfolding among the candidates for the Dari Swordsman.

Ambushes, frontal clashes, battles that take love itself as a sword, battles that take the laws of the Immortal Dynasty as a sword—time and again a Sword Fight accidentally injures an Immortal Dynasty Cultivator and the offender is executed by the Immortal Dynasty.

Within such cruel blood and fire, the Great Sun Sword Immortal is constantly growing.

Constantly growing.

...

The Endless Starry Sky continually maintains order and highly efficient production, while the blood of Sword Cultivators likewise flows unceasing; countless Sword Dao Geniuses throw themselves into it, becoming one bleached bone after another, forgotten by the living beings of the Human World.

Many times, those of Magic Cultivation often wonder: just how many Sword Cultivators in this world truly do not fear death?

The answer is: endless.

Especially in this era under the rule of the Ancient Sword Dao Emperor, under the flourishing age of the Sword Dao, no matter how many fearless Sword Cultivators you slaughter, new fearless Sword Cultivators will still grow forth in an endless stream. The soil of the Sword Dao is so deep and thick as to inspire terror: generation after generation of beings die, generation after generation of beings grow, without end.

This frenzy and this terror are enough to render many high-ranking members of the Xianmen Sect silent.

Such times passed by unawares for three million years.

The Great Sun Heavenly Pond has cultivated the Dari Swordsman for a full three million years. This far exceeds the years spent cultivating the eighteenth generation of Dari Swordsman, and any other generation of Dari Swordsman. Within the Endless Starry Sky, one Great Sun Sword Dao Venerable after another begins to surface—those who walk the road of Supreme Forgetfulness, those who walk the road of the Five Elements, those who walk the road of Extinction, those who walk the road of Extreme Strength: all kinds.

The Sword Cultivators beneath the Endless Starry Sky, after the Immortal Dynasty’s long peace, gradually withered and then now begin to grow strong again, giving birth to one Sword Dao Venerable after another whose talent and temperament are all outstanding.

The slaughter among the Great Sun Sword Dao Venerables thus grows ever more intense and terrifying. The life and death, victory and defeat of every Great Sun Sword Dao Venerable tugs at the hearts of countless powers and countless mighty beings across the Endless Starry Sky.

For people understand: this is the juvenile form of a Sovereign of the Endless Starry Sky in the midst of growth!

In this period, what draws the greatest attention in the Endless Starry Sky is the Holy Sword Fight between the Heavenly Sun Sword Venerable and the Nine Deaths Sword Venerable. Both sides lurk, hide, and clash within the Dead Silence Star Domain for several thousand years, ever without deciding victory or defeat. As time goes on the Sword Fight grows increasingly cruel, the wounds upon both sides’ bodies become ever more numerous, their Sword Intent ever hotter; perhaps the outcome is about to be decided.

The Xianmen Sect is likewise closely watching this Holy Sword Fight.

For it may well be that these two Sword Venerables locked in slaughter are the future Great Sun Sword Immortal!

"How is it?"

"Compared to you all?"

The current Immortal Gate Governor is a Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven Cultivator. The previous Governor, Fu, stepped down for having implemented erroneous policies, and those erroneous policies also left behind an inheritance—that is, several dozen Supremes of Great Sun Swordsmanship.

At this moment, the current Governor is asking their opinion.

"On par."

"As for a Life and Death Sword Fight, that is unknown."

A Great Sun Swordsmanship Supreme of the Xianmen Sect said: "After stepping onto this road, I feel ever more that the Xianmen Sect’s system offers tremendous aid to Great Sun Swordsmanship. Studying, researching, and participating in civic activities within the Xianmen Sect—these can all, to a slight degree, ease the Fire and Demonic of Great Sun Swordsmanship, temper the Sword Heart."

"Moreover, it seems that the higher one’s score in Thought and Moral Character, the easier it is to temper a Sword Heart that is mightier and more tenacious."

"Indeed so, truly wondrous!"

The circle of Great Sun Swordsmanship Supremes around him voiced their agreement.

This is the clear advantage by which the Xianmen Sect’s Great Sun Sword Dao Venerables lead other Great Sun Sword Dao Venerables. On the surface, the environment of the Xianmen Sect does not seem capable of producing large numbers of Sword Dao Geniuses, yet it is strangely suited for the growth of Sword Dao Geniuses; it appears somewhat paradoxical.

"This is normal, and not a coincidence."

"That figure was born within the Xianmen Sect; his scriptures are assuredly suited for Cultivation within the Xianmen Sect—nothing could be more natural." The current Immortal Gate Governor rolled his eyes. "I am asking whether you have confidence in defeating everyone and attaining the state of Great Sun Sword Immortal."

"Confidence?"

"Victory is certain. I will assuredly triumph."

One Sword Dao Venerable of the Xianmen Sect laughed.

"So too I."

The Sword Dao Venerables around him likewise smiled faintly, gazing at one another. There was no killing intent between them, yet there was a composed pursuit of Sword Dao ideals—a composure that would not regret even death.

"Then I have been discourteous."

"Each of you will assuredly attain all the victories of the Sword Dao."

The Immortal Gate Governor seemed as though awakening from a dream.

...

Once all the Xianmen Sect Sword Dao Venerables had departed, a new round of meeting of the Xianmen Sect was convened, with many participants, among them the previous Governor, Fu, now one of the Immortal Gate Politicians.

"They are qualified Great Sun Sword Cultivation practitioners, possessing confidence in certain victory."

"We are pleased for them."

The current Governor looked toward the Immortal Gate Politicians one by one and asked in a low voice: "But in terms of facts, in terms of objective reason and data, what is the probability that they will seize the final victory?"

Many turned their gaze to Fu.

This sole Emperor Realm Cultivator of the Xianmen Sect has presided over many scientific researches and many projects, and in the field of data analysis likewise stands alone.

Today, the Xianmen Sect has changed in many ways and is brewing internal decay.

Yet equality still runs deep in people’s hearts. Even as the only Emperor Realm Cultivator, Fu does not feel he ought to be aloof above others, much less that being driven from the position of Governor is in any way unjust.

"Very low."

"It should not be taken as the primary expected outcome."

Fu sighed lightly as he spoke.

"Why?"

"Is not the Xianmen Sect the environment most suited to the growth of the Dari Swordsman? We have a rich scientific atmosphere, we have a social environment that tempers the Sword Heart—so many advantages..."

The current Governor was somewhat unwilling to accept this.

"This cannot make up the gap between peerless Sword Dao geniuses."

"It is far from enough!"

Fu said in a deep voice: "Unless, as in bygone years, there is born another innate, peerless Sword Dao genius like that one. Such a possibility does exist. Over these years I have come to understand: so long as the Xianmen Sect operates normally, an extremely small number of Sword Dao geniuses will naturally be born."

"This is the derivative product of the Xianmen Sect industrial system."

"If we draw the grand prize, it is not impossible for an Immortal Gate Sword Cultivator to appear who bears the bearing of an Ancient Emperor!"

"Unfortunately, at present we have not drawn that lot."

As these words fell, the Immortal Gate Politicians around all grew somber. They had repeatedly argued through the relevant results countless times, and the final outcomes were all much the same.

Amid a chorus of sighs, the Immortal Gate Politicians met one another’s eyes; in each gaze they could see firm resolve.

"Then,"

"let us begin cultivating the Xianmen Sect’s own True Fairy of Destiny Earth Immortal Path."

The current Governor’s face was utterly indifferent as he spoke coldly: "The path of the Great Sun Sword Immortal, of the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor, is indeed incomparably mighty, the supreme legacy of the Endless Starry Sky, surpassed by none. Yet that the path is strong, that the Ancestor Master is strong, has never meant that those who come after must be strong. The road is there, but we must also see how the one who walks it walks!"

"The Xianmen Sect’s Earth Immortal Path of Destiny, the True Fairy of Collective Will, will assuredly blaze with dazzling radiance across the Endless Starry Sky!"

"And suppress the world beneath heaven!"
