Chapter 53: An Indestructible Existence
As expected, cracks started to appear on the chain.
In the crevices of the cracks, he saw dark energy starting to try to escape.
The moment he saw that dark energy, his expression began to turn cold.
The veins on his body tightened so that they were clearly visible through his pale skin.
Bang....
An extremely loud bang sounded from the chain before it completely shattered. Immediately after, dark energy surged out in a certain part of the sword.
However, that amount of energy was only ten times the energy that came out earlier, it could be said to be very little.
Luo Tian didn't have time to think about why because there were more things going on.
The energy shield that enveloped the space suddenly shattered causing the space to burst open.
He felt spiritual energy begin to enter his body. Any barriers that made him unable to cultivate disappeared instantly.
After that, his left eye suddenly turned black. It was not only his pupils that turned black, his entire eyeballs had also turned black.
"My eyes are a dark world." He suddenly said strange words.
At the same time, a stream of information entered his head.
The information was basically not something that came from the other party, but from himself because he had gained enlightenment.
Everyone born with an innate gift will usually get information about it.
It turned out that he had acquired an innate technique, and it was an extremely extraordinary technique.
The information told him what the technique could do.
It was an illusory technique that would strike straight at the target's soul.
If the target's soul is very weak, it can instantly destroy his soul.
And even if he could withstand the attack, his strength would drop drastically because he had to split his power. One to fight, one to withstand the attack.
The technique was derived from the laws that the sword possessed. Apparently, the sword was something independent, it was separate from the world and it had its own laws.
He had also received information about the dark energy or rather the dark sword, they were indeed something indestructible, something immortal, that would exist for eternity. At least the information said that nothing could destroy that dark sword or dark energy.
His soul was with that dark sword, as long as it existed, he could still recover even if his body was reduced to ashes.
The amount of energy was very little compared to the original, it was because most of the energy was already part of the dark sword. However, he could still cultivate to increase that energy.
As his cultivation increased, that amount of energy would also increase.
As long as he fought using that energy, his combat power would also skyrocket.
Even now, as a mortal, he could fight iron body cultivators with the current amount of dark energy.
But knowing it all, he couldn't help but feel horrified.
What kind of existence is he? Was he an existence that would exist forever.
Dying is scary, but when you know you can't die, it's also scary.
"Husband..."
He woke up from his daydream when he heard Yingyue's voice in front of him.
They were no longer in the sword space, they had returned to the real world.
In his hand currently appeared a black sword. No, it's not a sword, it's just a sword shadow. However, the sword emitted an aura so piercing that those who saw it tasted death.
With a thought, he could summon the manifestation of the sword.
He then looked at Yingyue who was currently standing in front of him, his gaze on her was extremely cold but she looked him in the eye without the slightest bit of hesitation.
"Don't worry, I'm fine," he said.
He breathed a sigh of relief as he discovered his rationality was still the same as before.
He then entered the space again.
There, he found the figure of the Qin emperor. But he didn't have a body anymore, it was just a mass of light that formed a human figure. It is his soul.
He was gathering the shards from the chain. Even though his condition was very bad, he looked very excited as he collected the shards.
After gathering all the shards, he flew towards him.
He was colder than before, even in front of a grand paragon who was his own father-in-law, he did not lower his head at all.
Emperor Qin looked him up and down before sighing.
"Well, since there's nothing really wrong with you, I'll go first. I have to reshape my body soon. Don't worry, I'll definitely refine an artifact for you with these chain fragments."
"Remember, don't disappoint Yingyue. You can be cruel to anyone as long as it's not her."
He gave him advice before disappearing.
Luo Tian immediately turned his gaze to the black sword. There were still chains sealing it, but one part of the sword was fully exposed.
And that space, he discovered that it had now turned into his spiritual world, a place where he could store his cultivation. But his spiritual world seemed to be something different from the others.
Of course, every spiritual world is different, the better one's spiritual world is, the better one's talent is.
His spiritual world could be entered by living beings and it was so vast that it was like the world itself, it was a sign that it was on a completely different level.
The reason why the energy shield suddenly shattered seemed to be due to the backlash from his sealed spiritual world. Otherwise, perhaps only one-seventh of that energy shield would be destroyed.
But it can be broken easily too because it's just an auxiliary seal, it's very weak compared to the chains in that each one is something that stands alone.
"The breaking of one chain gives me a technique, will I get another technique if the other chain is broken?"
"But it seems that Yingyue and Emperor Qin's previous guess was wrong, I believe there is no limit in my cultivation."
He looked around the space.
"Perhaps, what has a limit is where I can increase my dark energy."
Such a seal must have its own defense mechanism.
If one shatters, the other may try to cover the shattered part. Even though they couldn't completely cover it, but when there were more of them, the exposed area was also much smaller.
He then controlled that dark energy and fed it back into the exposed part of the sword.
It made it in, the moment it fully entered, its personality immediately returned to normal.
"Phew…" He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He approached the sword. His desire to touch the sword became even greater, he also felt that it would be fine if he touched the sword even though the scene of the creation of the sword was something too grandiose.
The problem is; he was an indestructible existence.
