Upon an ancient sea, waves surged, layered upon each other like the lines on an elder's face, witnessed by none but the beings inhabiting its depths. Above the tumultuous sea fluttered a bird, created entirely out of sword rays. Its wings beat with a resonant force that made the sea roll and countless sword shadows to whiz by, orchestrating a symphony of the wild and the untamed.

Amidst the roaring storm stood a figure, a beacon of stoicism and resolve. Dressed in a black and white robe, Ye Guying stood with his hands behind his back. His eyes bore the resolve of steel, unflinching in the face of the bird conjured from sword rays.

Behind this ethereal bird, amidst the surging clouds and mist, stood an enigmatic sword-shaped tower, shrouded in a mystifying fog. Resounding from the tower was an imposing voice that shook the lands for thousands of miles.

"Ye Guying, just one step left!" the voice rang, echoing through the sky like a thunderclap, shaking Ye Guying from his trance.

He turned his head, and his eyes met the burning gazes of tens of thousands of individuals standing behind him. This wasn't a gathering of ordinary folk. They were Sword Cultivators, standing with their Sovereign Swords, ready to follow wherever Ye Guying led.

"Yes!" A deep conviction surged within Ye Guying, brimming in his eyes, illuminating his very being. Taking a deep breath that seemed to draw in the collective anticipation of the masses, he propelled himself towards the bird amidst uproarious cheers, unyielding and undeterred.

"Ye Guying!" someone called out, halting him mid-flight.

"What is it?" Ye Guying asked, turning to face the older man who had spoken.

With a respectful countenance, the elderly figure approached, whispering, "There's a message from the Azure Spirit Sword Sect. It's regarding yesterday's Sword Debate."

"Go on," Ye Guying said, a calm sea amidst the swirling tempest of events.

The older figure leaned in, whispering a few words into Ye Guying's ear.

"What's his name?" Ye Guying asked, a flicker of urgency breaking through his calm demeanor.

In hushed tones, the older man uttered two words.

Ye Guying's eyes narrowed, a hint of surprise flickering in the depths of his icy gaze. "Yun Xiao?"

?ι══????????══ι?

At the Sword Pavilion, within an ancient bronze coffin. Yun Xiao was seated amidst nine Primordial Coffins, a meditative figure bathed in an otherworldly light.

"These golden lion flavored Heavenly Dao Sariras are quite tough, aren't they?" Yun Xiao muttered, his voice tinged with a playful note of frustration. He had been refining them with the Primordial Void Technique for a long time before finally being able to tap into their medicinal effects.

His haul of Heavenly Dao Sariras this time around was quite good.

"I'd have even more Spirit Stones if those two didn't need so much to recover," Yun Xiao mused, reflecting on the treasures he had looted from Wu Wu, which was close to 50,000 Spirit Stones.

That assassin had been stronger than Yao Qingqian, forcing Blue Star and Red Moon to push themselves past their limits again, causing them to need even more Spirit Stones to recover this time around.

However, the leftovers after being transformed into Heavenly Dao Sariras were still enough to grant Yun Xiao a decent power boost, allowing his Dragon Spring to sprout a new claw, finally possessing five in total.

Within his Dantian, the Primordial Void Dragon Spring roiled, its power more majestic and vast. He had finally broken through to the Establishment Dragon Spring Realm.

"I must say, this ancient bronze coffin and the coffin soul beasts, along with their Heavenly Dao Sarira, seem custom-made for the revival of the Creator Immortal!" Yun Xiao remarked.

With a resolute stance, Yun Xiao rose to his feet, summoning a tide of magic power that swelled with fervent vitality around him. “I've recovered another cultivation stage!” To others, this process was known as a breakthrough, but he referred to it as a recovery. A genuine rebirth, so to speak!

“Obviously, this is but a reincarnation through a mortal shell, the soul of an ordinary man acting as a surrogate for the resurrection of the Creator Immortal...” Yun Xiao mused with a sense of humor.

Yun Xiao looked up, directing his question to the blue glow that emanated from the lid of the ancient coffin, known as Blue Star. “Now that the establishment of my foundation is complete, I should be ready to attempt to transform my Dragon Spring into a Divine Sea, right?”

Blue Star remained silent, yet, in the cosmic dance of the early universe depicted on the coffin lid, nebulous characters began to glitter, descending from the heavens to imprint themselves on Yun Xiao’s forehead.

Yun Xiao's entire being shivered with the imparted knowledge, his consciousness plunging deep into the Dantian within him. At its core, the five-clawed Primordial Void Dragon was now complete, poised on the brink of a transformative evolution.

“The Primordial Void births the Heavens and the Earth. The Divine Sea steadies the vast lands,” Yun Xiao whispered, as if reciting an ancient scripture, the ten mist-shrouded characters imprinting themselves onto the Primordial Void Dragon which let out a reverberating roar before soaring within his Dantian.

A deep hum resonated throughout the space, the ancient bronze coffin functioning like the Azure Spirit Cauldron, drawing in the spiritual energy of the cosmos within its confines.

The Primordial Void Dragon opened its maw wide, engulfing the surging waves of energy with a voracious appetite. A symphony of harmonious vibrations filled the space, as the massive influx of energy caused its body to swell and expand exponentially.

“From a single point to a vast expanse, so forms the Divine Sea!” Yun Xiao exclaimed, his voice echoing like a sage bestowing wisdom on the world. The Dragon Spring was the singular point, and the Divine Sea, the expanse.

The transition from Dragon Spring Realm to Divine Sea Realm was basically a process of increasing your own magic power. Despite its seeming simplicity, where even Jiang Yue could break through to it in only three days, the application of the Primordial Void Technique presented its own unique challenge. What Yun Xiao sought to forge was nothing less than a Primordial Void Sea.

“This Primordial Void Sea is akin to a nascent world birthed amidst chaos, encapsulating all elemental forces of the universe—wind, rain, thunder, fire, and myriad Daos both grand and subtle, all converging within it,” Yun Xiao mused, his voice carrying the profound depth of his vision.

Through his previous battles, Yun Xiao had come to understand that the magic power of other people often bore specific attributes. For example, Wang Feng, one of the twelve disciples of the First Sword Venerable, possessed a Desert Sand Sword Soul, his magic power mainly embodying the heavy and oppressive nature of sand and earth.

In stark contrast, the magic Yun Xiao cultivated through the Primordial Void Technique encompassed a vast spectrum of elements, mirroring the Primordial Immortal Ancestor, the forebearer of all Dao in the human realm.

“In simple terms, the Primordial Void Technique cultivates life!” Yun Xiao said, the words encompassing life itself, the myriad Daos, and the world—it signified birth.

“However, my Heaven Burial Sword Soul embodies the ultimate power of death, representing destruction, annihilation, and slaughter!” Yun Xiao mused. His magic power cultivated life, while his Sword Soul harbored death.

“The harmonious, even complementary, coexistence of life and death within me is quite miraculous, isn't it?” Yun Xiao said with a hint of amusement, as he discerned the commonality between these seemingly opposing forces.

That commonality was the world itself! The Primordial Void Technique fostered the creation of worlds.

Similarly, the Divine Pillar, the Dao Source, and the World Embryo—even if they represented worlds of death, they were but fledgling incarnations. fre enovelkiss.com

“Maybe a perfect world encompasses both life and death?” Yun Xiao pondered, a flicker of revelation sparking within him.

In the wake of his mysterious rebirth, Yun Xiao found that he had attained a kind of lucidity that pierced through the very marrow of his soul. Answers to questions that once evaded him now flowed easily, forming clear streams of comprehension that encompassed the nuances of swordsmanship and the complexities of the Primordial Void Technique he was practicing.

It seemed as though a gentle mist shrouded the path ahead, but Yun Xiao could peer through it effortlessly, unraveling the intricacies of both the Dao and sword techniques, seizing their very essence with newfound clarity.

"With my refined insights, I might just be the epitome of a perfect, all-rounded prodigy," Yun Xiao said, a smug grin etched itself across his face.

"Ye Guying, your time of imparting wisdom will soon be at an end. I will show you the true essence of an Immortal!" His voice rang out, resolute and laced with a fierce challenge. He would not be an Immortal who wielded the lives of the innocent frivolously, nor unjustly condemned a mere mortal emperor. No, he was on the path to becoming the one and only Creator Immortal of ancient times.

Humming resonated throughout him, a crescendo of vibrational energy emanating from his Dantian, where the five-clawed Primordial Void Dragon had absorbed an immense amount of spiritual energy, swelling to an unprecedented size. It was akin to the rapid growth of a fetus, ready to embrace the world in all its glory, turning Yun Xiao's abdomen into a burgeoning mound, mimicking the stages of pregnancy.

Blue Star erupted into laughter, its voice echoing with joyous rumbles, "Looking at your belly, you're at least eight months in, aren't you? Much more than the mere bloating others experience when they break through to the Divine Sea Realm!"

Red Moon chimed in with an exhilarating mirth that seemed to shake the very foundations of the coffin they were housed in, "Oh oh! I can't wait until you start nursing!"

Yun Xiao brushed their comments aside with a leisurely wave, unconcerned with their teasing. His burgeoning belly was a testament to the monumental magic power housed within, magic power that vastly surpassed that of others. It was this very magic power that allowed him to defy the heavens and defeat adversaries like Yun Tianyi and Yao Zijin.

"At this moment, the Primordial Void Dragon is but a gaseous entity, an expansive, nebulous force. I must condense it, transform it into a vast ocean of energy to establish the Divine Sea," Yun Xiao murmured, eyes narrowing in concentration, inhaling deeply as if drawing upon the essence of the cosmos itself.

With a powerful exertion of will, Yun Xiao guided the pulsating symbols of the Primordial Void Technique, attempting to reign in the near uncontrollable force that the dragon had become, as if seeking to anchor it between heaven and earth.

"Dragon Spring transforming into the Divine Sea!"

A thunderous roar echoed as the transition reached its climax, and Yun Xiao's abdomen quickly deflated, returning to its original state. But within him, a qualitative change occurred, as the Primordial Void Dragon transformed into a torrential river, establishing a profound Divine Sea!

Yun Xiao had attained the Divine Sea Realm. His life attribute magic power surged like tumultuous waves, seemingly simple yet embracing a complexity that mirrored the nature of the color white—plain at first glance, yet encompassing a spectrum of countless hues.

"One Divine Sea represents the Early Divine Sea Realm!" Yun Xia's newfound power surged mightily, a vast increase that heralded the initial stages of the Divine Sea Realm, a realm divided into five smaller stages—Early, Mid, Late, Perfect, and Establishment.

For reference, Ye Tianyuan was at the Mid Divine Sea Realm, one stage above Yao Qingqian. Meanwhile, Yun Xiao had heard from him today that Zhao Xuanran was in the Establishment Divine Sea Realm.

"In other words, Senior Sister Zhao has five Divine Seas!." Yun Xiao mused. Within the Azure Spirit Sword Sect, possessing the might to slay a Chief Law Enforcement Elder with a single sword stroke already spoke volumes of the stage's immense power.

But how did you go from one Divine Sea to five? It was quite straightforward! You simply created a second Dragon Spring within your Dantian, nurtured it all the way from one claw to five, and performed the Dragon Spring into Divine Sea transformation all over again.

"Basically, reaching the Mid Divine Sea Realm means cultivating through the Dragon Spring Realm twice. And Senior Sister Zhao... she's done this five times!" Yun Xiao said thoughtfully. The path of cultivation started off with the formation of a Dragon Spring. Each successive Dragon Spring was bound to become increasingly arduous..

Looking down, apart from the first Divine Sea, Yun Xiao could see a new one-claw Dragon Spring had begun to form within his Dantian! 𝙛𝙧𝒆𝒆𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝒆𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝓶

"Although I'm only in the Early Divine Sea Realm, the magic power forged through the Primordial Void Technique, coupled with the increased capacity from my Golden Dantian, should make me considerably stronger than others at the same stage, like Yao Qingqian," Yun Xiao muttered. He realized that his magic power in combination with his Sword Soul was the dual foundation for his superiority over his peers.

"You're looking pretty smug, aren't you?" Blue Star remarked, its gaze bearing a mix of incredulity and amusement.

"Why not?" Yun Xiao shot back with a shrug. "I mean, I'm stronger than most at my level, right?"

Blue Star chuckled. "Oh man you crack me up. Sure, Ye Guao's Golden Dantian gives you a bit more juice, but the Primordial Void Technique? That's a whole other level. We're talking a potential power boost of hundreds of thousands times, easily!"

"Hundreds of thousands?" Yun Xiao stuttered.

"Minimum. To be honest, bumping it up a billion times would hardly be a stretch." Blue Star retorted nonchalantly, a smirk dancing on its lips.

"A billion times the normal... at the Early Divine Sea Realm?" Yun Xiao continued, his mind reeling from the staggering figures being thrown at him.

"Exactly."

"And why's the jump so huge?" Yun Xiao prodded, curiosity piqued.

Blue Star rolled its eyes dramatically before explaining, "Simple, this is a technique from your previous life, a method of creation, too grandiose to be utilized for something as simple as foundation building. "

"So, I'm only scratching the surface because I'm basically playing dress-up with the Creator Immortal's leftovers?" Yun Xiao said, a spark of understanding lighting up in his eyes.

"Yup. Your current body is too weak. That's why you're only able to tap into an infinitesimal fraction of the Primordial Void Technique's power. With Ye Guying's Dantian, you might double or triple your power" Blue Star conjectured, an amused glint in his eyes at Yun Xiao's slow realization.

"I see..." Yun Xiao muttered, the gravity of his newfound understanding weighing heavily upon him. The Creator Immortal was truly a terrifying existence. It was beyond Yun Xiao's capacity to even fathom the profound connection between this entity and the Six Ancestral Gods that spanned eons.

All he was—a mere mortal, striving to survive on the treacherous path of immortality, seeking to live passionately and avenge wrongs. "I must reclaim the Seed of Creation!" His goal remained steadfast and unchangeable.

With his purpose renewed, Yun Xiao summoned his power in the Divine Sea Realm, his hands weaving the air as the Heaven Burial Sword Soul materialized. "With fifteen layers of Sword Aura at the Early Divine Sea Realm, my magic breathes life, and my sword takes it away." His eyes blazed with unspoken vows and deep-seated resolve as he peered out of the ancient bronze coffin.

"It's dawn," he said, a cold fire burning in his gaze. "The Grand Conclave starts today. Jiang Yue, your three-day stint as an Immortal prodigy ends now. Rise and shine."
