Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1612 - 424: A Century of Change

"A century passes in the blink of an eye."

In the grand hall filled with wisps of chaotic energy, now devoid of any presence, the current strongest being across the myriad realms and master of the Eternal Imperial Court, Gu Chen, opened his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, the entire hall suddenly transformed with strange and fantastical phenomena, displaying various miraculous sights of world creation.

To call it a grand hall was an understatement; it was actually an ancient realm boundless at first glance, personally crafted by Gu Chen as a place of secluded cultivation, suspended above all other worlds.

Here, no matter how great the disturbance, it would not affect others.

"A hundred years hastily pass, with time flowing relentlessly; truly heartless," Gu Chen sighed, his pitch-black eyes profoundly deep and extraordinarily bright.

It is said that cultivating the Dao knows not the passage of years, but this was Gu Chen’s first real experience of this truth.

This period of seclusion had already exceeded his lifespan of cultivation, by more than twofold.

After all, even when he practiced using the Chrono Cauldron before, he had never spent such an extended period of time.

"With the passage of a century, the mundane world shifts like the sea around fields of mulberry, yet to me, it felt like merely a moment," Gu Chen murmured.

A hundred years might seem long compared to his past cultivation time, but it really counted for nothing.

Even Gu Chen himself did not anticipate that forging a Dao weapon would take up so much time.

His own understanding had also fallen into a profound enlightenment, with his Dao cultivation experiencing significant growth.

"Is it successful?"

Gu Chen gazed at the intense blaze before him, which had been burning fiercely for a century with no signs of extinguishing.

The mere overflow from it was enough to annihilate the current era.

At this moment, within the blaze, a sword embryo had taken shape, beginning to form.

Throughout these hundred years, Gu Chen had subconsciously continued to infuse his Dao into it, never once severing the connection.

Therefore, upon seeing this sword embryo for the first time, Gu Chen instinctively felt a surge of kinship.

Hum!

Within the thriving Dao flame, the sword embryo lightly trembled, likewise conveying a sense of closeness to Gu Chen.

At the same time, a faint voice emerged: "We have reached the final stage, the place for life and cultivation to merge."

The hundred years had seen the fusion of the Nine Cauldrons consciousness with the Vault of Heaven Battle Armor, culminating in a brand new, unique weapon spirit born specifically for Gu Chen.

Gu Chen slightly nodded, acknowledging that the mutual cultivation of life meant he needed to intertwine his individual cultivation into the sword embryo, completing the final tempering.

Boom!

The next moment, myriad paths trembled, the origin of the Heavenly Dao manifested, endless rays of light scattered, and celestial Dao laws descended. Gu Chen acted, touching the ancient sword embryo with a gentle tap of his finger.

Hum!

In an instant, a myriad of visions appeared, the atmosphere filled with grandeur, and the most supreme essences such as the initial light of chaos and the Purple Fog of Primordial Chaos appeared.

Even billions of supreme thunderbolts struck down, all absorbed by the ancient sword embryo, transforming into supreme rule patterns unique to it.

Swish!

The next moment, the sword embryo trembled lightly, the burning Dao flame completely retracted, along with the various celestial phenomena, all merging into it.

From this point on, the Dao weapon was complete!

A tremor resonated through his soul, Gu Chen looked at the Dao weapon—the ancient sword embryo—almost as if looking at an extension of himself.

Its surface was covered with the highest patterns of the Dao origin; this sword was perfectly formed from rare heavenly materials like Sun Fairy Gold, Dark Fairy Gold, Eternal Blue Diamond, Vault of Heaven Fairy Gold, and the Five Elements God Crystal, unrivaled and arguably the first Dao weapon of all ages!

"A Dao weapon that belongs solely to me." Gu Chen looked at the sword embryo before him, his hand slightly reaching out. Without the need for thought, the Dao weapon flew into his palm automatically, imparting a sense of being connected by flesh, as if an extension of his arm.

No adjustment needed; their compatibility had already reached the most perfect state.

And only a Dao weapon personally forged by oneself could reach this extent.

In comparison, other Dao weapons from the upper realms all originated from relics of a past era or even older, not personally forged by the likes of Nie Gu.

After all, even those in the Realm of Inquiry couldn’t forge their own Dao weapon.

"Give me a name," the first Dao weapon of all ages—the sword embryo trembled lightly, the weapon spirit signaling to Gu Chen.

He pondered briefly, then slowly spoke, "I’ve forged a Dao weapon, and all I’ve done till now serves one goal—to calm the chaos. Therefore, your name shall be—Disorder Calming Sword!"

Hum!

The sword embryo, now Disorder Calming Sword, trembled lightly, the weapon’s spirit responding and accepting the name.

Thus, Gu Chen’s Dao weapon was finally named—Disorder Calming Sword, born to settle the ancient turmoil!

"A hundred years have passed, the changes outside are significant; it’s time for me to leave seclusion and take a look," having forged the Dao weapon and secluding such a long time, Gu Chen, deep in contemplation, prepared to venture into the external world.

Deciding on action instantly as was his nature, at the next moment, with a swish, he vanished from the place of seclusion.

"Master of the Imperial Court, take me with you, take me!" From afar, a supreme genus heavenly medicine revived, yelling loudly.

But Gu Chen did not bother with it; he had not restricted the area, allowing the supreme heavenly medicine to go wherever it wished.

Time flows gently, years flit by. A century had passed, and the upper realm had indeed undergone vast changes. freёnovelkiss.com

In a moment, Gu Chen had grasped everything, and his first action after coming out of seclusion was to head to the Eternal Imperial Court headquarters on the Origin Island.

Looking at the huge golden statue of himself at the entrance, Gu Chen felt an indescribable emotion.
