The sun blazed overhead, countless mountains and rivers winding through the landscape, with palaces established amidst the peaks.

The appearance of the Sword Dao Sect amidst this myriad of mountains and rivers had not changed at all since before.

However, upon closer inspection, one could discover that every inch of this land had undergone a transformation. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The appearance remained unchanged, but the essence within had been utterly transformed.

The earth had turned to five-colored soil, the rivers were infused with incomparably pure Spiritual Power, and beneath each mountain range, a great concentration of Spiritual Power began to gather.

The Spiritual Power beneath these mountains was continuously condensing, over thousands and tens of thousands of years, possibly forming into a dragon vein.

With every breath, they inhaled the purest Spiritual Energy.

Currently, the Spiritual Energy within the Sword Dao Sect was dozens of times purer than before the transformation.

Even with the drastic changes throughout the Nine Domains, making the Spiritual Energy within incomparably dense.

If a Sword Dao Sect disciple cultivated within this Sword Dao Sect, they would progress ten times faster compared to outside.

In the short term, there might not be too many changes, but over time, Sword Dao Sect disciples naturally surpassed the martial artists outside the Nine Domains in cultivation speed.

All these transformations had turned the Sword Dao Sect upside down.

"For one person’s power to create such a sacred land, this kind of feat..."

Yan Huang, seeing the reconstructed Sword Dao Sect, couldn’t help but be overwhelmed with emotion.

He, too, was a master of a continent, and could naturally understand the difficulties of creating a sacred land.

In the Yan Prefecture continent, where Yan Huang resided, there was also a sacred land he had established, but that land was only a thousand square feet and could only accommodate a dozen disciples for cultivation.

It couldn’t compare to the vastness of the current Sword Dao Sect.

And in terms of the purity of Spiritual Energy, the sacred land established by Yan Huang was far inferior to the intimate purity of the Sword Dao Sect’s Spiritual Energy.

"In the future, the Sword Dao Sect will no longer be defenseless."

Han Yueli and Luo Xi, seeing the changes within the Sword Dao Sect, were also extremely delighted.

The two of them treated the Sword Dao Sect as their own stronghold since Han Yueli’s Cold Snow Pavilion had integrated into the Sword Dao Sect, becoming part of it.

Luo Xi, though initially a disciple of the Six Paths Demon Sect, had since defected with nowhere else to go, naturally made the Sword Dao Sect her stronghold.

Qing Meng, on the other hand, didn’t harbor the same feelings, since the Holy Dragon Sect still existed.

Asking Qing Meng to abandon everything to come to the Sword Dao Sect, Qing Meng may not be willing.

However, as Chu Fengmian’s strength grew, the Sword Dao Sect’s expansion inevitably required annexing other forces, including the Holy Dragon Sect, which Chu Fengmian also intended to absorb.

Even the Holy Dragon Secret Realm, Chu Fengmian sought to claim it, especially now that Wu Dao had already been slain by Chu Fengmian.

The younger generation in the Holy Dragon Secret Realm, there was no one capable of contending with Chu Fengmian.

Although the old antiques in the Holy Dragon Secret Realm were troublesome, now that Chu Fengmian had stepped into the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, he could even crush half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts.

The moment when Chu Fengmian conquered the Holy Dragon Secret Realm was not far off.

"Let’s take advantage of the unused Ancient Emperor’s blood essence and set up a new Mountain Protection Array!"

Chu Fengmian looked at the remaining Ancient Emperor’s blood essence in the sky and spoke.

This Mountain Protection Array was hastily set up by Chu Fengmian upon returning to the Sword Dao Sect, only to delay the attack from the seven major sects.

Under the attack of the seven major sects, it was completely shattered.

Now, with the Sword Dao Sect being rebuilt and Chu Fengmian having stepped into the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor Realm, his strength was entirely different. The new Mountain Protection Array would be undeniably different from before.

The less than ten percent of the Ancient Emperor’s blood essence that remained hadn’t been consumed by the mountains and rivers of the Sword Dao Sect, making it perfect for setting up the Mountain Protection Array.

"Okay!"

Han Yueli was the first to speak, displaying her countless swordsmanship techniques, transforming them into Sword Qi, condensing in the sky.

Next was Luo Xi, Yan Hanshi, Qing Meng, Yan Huang, and others, each displaying their martial techniques, also condensing in the air.

Countless forces converged in the sky, and Chu Fengmian, at this moment, suddenly unleashed an Heaven-shocking Sword Intent, the power of the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline erupting simultaneously.

A dragon and a sword, converging in the sky, transformed into the form of Yin Yang.

The dragon and sword complemented each other, forming an incomparably large array, covering the Sword Dao Sect.

The numerous forces in the sky also poured into the array, under the Yin Yang form of dragon and sword, performing their respective functions, turning into countless array eyes.

Anyone attacking this array would have to endure the bombardment of numerous forces.

"This array won’t be easily broken by even a half-step Heavenly Human Realm!"

Luo Xi gazed at the newly emerged array in awe.

The previous Sword Dao Sect could still be easily broken by a few Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors.

The new array, however, required a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert to pay a tremendous price to break through, unless they poured in all their forces or had several half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts attack simultaneously.

This Mountain Protection Array was enough to provide the Sword Dao Sect with utmost safety.

"In the midst of reshaping the sacred land, how about giving this small world a new name?"

Han Yueli suggested, looking at Chu Fengmian.

Renaming it would signify the rebirth and transformation of this small world.

"Let’s call it the Sword Origin Realm. The Sword Dao Origin, which my master pursued when creating the Sword Dao Sect, will also be my pursuit in the future. Let this small world henceforth be the Sword Origin Realm."

Chu Fengmian proposed.

"The Sword Origin Realm."

"Good!"

Han Yueli, Luo Xi, and the others all nodded in agreement.

The Sword Dao Origin is the ultimate pursuit of countless Sword Cultivators, as is the Sword Dao Master, who dedicated their life to pursuing the Sword Dao Origin.

Chu Fengmian naming it the Sword Origin Realm symbolized his determination.

"After enduring two consecutive great battles, let all Sword Dao Sect disciples rest well. In the short term, the seven major sects shouldn’t dare to attack again."

Chu Fengmian stated to the numerous Sword Dao Sect disciples below.

The seven major sects had suffered heavy losses in this battle, particularly with Huang Liujin, a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert, having perished at Chu Fengmian’s hands.

Such losses were unbearable for the seven major sects, and with a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert dead at Chu Fengmian’s hand,

the seven major sects wouldn’t dare to attack the Sword Dao Sect without fully understanding Chu Fengmian’s strength.

After all, the current situation in the Nine Domains was extraordinarily chaotic, and the seven major sects had more than just the Sword Dao Sect to contend with; there were also powerful beings from various star regions.

The upheaval of the Nine Domains, with exceedingly dense Spiritual Energy, had attracted the attention of many star region experts towards the Nine Domains. For the seven major sects vying for dominance in the Nine Domains, they too faced a significant threat. A desperate clash with the Sword Dao Sect would benefit no one during this time.
