Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 577 - Connecting Two Mountains
When the Six Realms heard the news of a Nine Sect Sword Master emerging, the nearby Celestial Sword Palace naturally received the information as well.
In an instant, the entire inner workings of the Celestial Sword Palace took it with utmost seriousness.
"Nine Sword Hearts?"
"How is that possible?"
"No one, not even someone who understands nine different Sword Hearts, could accomplish this. Becoming a Sword Master in all of them?"
"This is the proclamation of the Great Dao, it can't be wrong!"
"How unbelievable is this? Who is it?"
"No matter who it is, it's certainly not someone from our Celestial Sword Palace!"
The Sect Leader, Immortal Emperor Taixiao, was expressionless, as the surrounding high-ranking members of the Celestial Sword Palace also felt quite embarrassed.
As the Immortal Realm's most famous Sword Cultivation sect, one could easily guess the relationship between this sect and the sword just from its name.
In fact, the first Sect Leader of Celestial Sword Palace was indeed the Sword Immortal Emperor.
Unfortunately, he was later overthrown and demoted to Quasi-Emperor, thereby necessitating a change in leadership.
The competition for Sword Sovereign is truly intense.
And the reason this position changes hands so frequently, aside from the sheer number of Sword Cultivators, is another crucial reason.
When a Quasi-Emperor possessing a Sword Rule Brand challenges the Sword Immortal Emperor, the Heart of Rule will not grant special favor to the Immortal Emperor.
This is unlike other Rule Dominators who can use their Rule Incarnation to easily overpower a Quasi-Emperor.
The Celestial Sword Palace has done its utmost; historically, it has produced six Sword Immortal Emperors, even though all were eventually defeated, it remains the highest of any sect.
But unfortunately, countless sword cultivators outside couldn't care less.
You've named yourself Celestial Sword Palace, yet now the Sword Immortal Emperor isn't from your sect.
Your Sect Leader doesn't even cultivate the Sword Rule anymore, what right do you have to use this name?
Especially when you're occupying Celestial Sword Mountain, the sacred land in every sword cultivator's heart!
Currently, the Celestial Sword Palace's greatest asset in the Sword Cultivation Realm is having a Late-stage Quasi-Emperor with a Tier Nine Eternal Night Sword Heart.
The Eternal Night Sword Heart parallels the Everlasting Sword Heart, second only to the Life and Death Sword Heart.
Becoming the Eternal Night Sword Master is still something to be proud of.
But now that Brother Cheng has appeared as a Sword Master of the Nine Sword Hearts, any other Sword Master pales in comparison.
"Who?"
"Who has become the Nine Sect Sword Master?"
"Quickly investigate!"
"That person should be on Earth Sword Mountain."
"Offer the best conditions to recruit him into the Celestial Sword Palace!" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
"What if he doesn't agree?"
"Then he cannot be allowed to stay..."
A flash of killing intent passed through the eyes of Immortal Emperor Taixiao; he was not one to follow the righteous path.
"The Sword Master with Nine Sword Hearts, a Sword Dao talent that shines through the ages, if he becomes the next Sword Immortal Emperor..."
That would be different from previous Sword Immortal Emperors.
With a somber face, he surveyed the crowd: "At that time, the position of Sword Immortal Emperor, our Celestial Sword Palace can never reclaim it!"
In his view, the Sword Immortal Emperor must belong to the Celestial Sword Palace.
"Investigate!"
"Once found, bring him here, just say we invite him!"
After inviting him in, it's up to them how they handle it.
Lately, the Celestial Sword Palace has closed the gates, remaining ignorant despite the excitement outside.
But being nearby, within a few breaths, information arrived.
"That person..."
"How so quickly, who's the person?"
Immortal Emperor Taixiao's eyes turned cold: "Could it be he dares to disregard our Celestial Sword Palace and refuses to come in?"
"It's not that..."
The investigating Elder looked bitter: "It's just him, that person... is better left alone."
Other Immortal Emperors sneered, "What, is there anyone our Celestial Sword Palace cannot provoke?"
"Is he the Palace Master of Everlasting Hall, the Demon Emperor of Nine-Star Demon Hall?"
The Elder spread his hands bleakly, looking more miserable than crying: "None of these... he's Jiang Cheng."
"Jiang Cheng?"
Immortal Emperor Taixiao's face changed drastically, he hurriedly asked, "Which Jiang Cheng?"
"It's Jiexin Jiang Cheng."
"What? It's actually him?"
All the Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Emperors in Celestial Sword Palace immediately descended into chaos.
"How could it be him?"
"This madman, how did he come here?"
"Has he set his sights on our Celestial Sword Palace, this Plague God, can't he go elsewhere?"
Moments ago, they claimed they could provoke anyone, but now everyone immediately backtracked.
Who dares to provoke Jiexin!
"Damn, isn't he the Speed Quasi-Emperor, how did he become the Nine Sect Sword Master?"
"Who knows, this guy is wicked!"
"Continue sealing the mountain, resolutely keep him out!"
"Indeed, we must ensure he has no contact with Celestial Sword Palace, pretend he doesn't exist!"
They soon made a decision similar to Biluo Heart Palace before.
Unfortunately, plans don't always coincide with reality.
At this moment, the nine-colored light from Earth Sword Mountain eventually transformed into a long rainbow, connecting to Celestial Sword Mountain.
Like a celestial bridge spanning the void.
And Celestial Sword Mountain... resided within the Celestial Sword Palace.
This scene amazed the sword cultivators outside.
"So after breaking through Earth Sword Mountain, such a phenomenon appears?"
"It seems Celestial Sword Mountain and Earth Sword Mountain are truly one!"
"Except no one has ever accomplished such a thing before..."
"This rainbow leads directly to Celestial Sword Mountain, haven't we obtained a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"
Earth Sword Mountain is open to all sword cultivators; Celestial Sword Mountain isn't.
It has already become the private property of the Celestial Sword Palace.
Outsiders can enter if they become a disciple of Celestial Sword Palace.
The vast majority of sword cultivators either already belong to a sect, wander alone, or refuse to bow down.
Thus, external sword cultivators have never been able to access the high-tier Sword Hearts of Everlasting, Eternal Night, Great Sun, Sacrificial Moon, and Ling Xing on Celestial Sword Mountain.
They can only rely on their own talent.
Especially with the recent sealing of the Celestial Sword Palace, there's no chance at all.
But this time, the rainbow from Earth Sword Mountain straight to Celestial Sword Mountain directly ignored the seals and laws of the Celestial Sword Palace.
Forcing a path between the two mountains.
"Does this mean, as long as we step onto this rainbow, we can also enter Celestial Sword Mountain?"
"Yes!"
"My goodness, I'm cultivating the Everlasting Sword Heart; my greatest wish has always been to enter Celestial Sword Mountain at least once!"
"Even though I don't cultivate the Five Great Sword Hearts, I still want to go in and comprehend!"
"Indeed, if I could gain one more Sword Heart, my power would significantly increase."
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes turned green.
Hearts pounding, desperate to enter Celestial Sword Mountain at the next moment.
However, it seemed not as smooth as they imagined.
This suddenly appeared 'Celestial Bridge' has an owner.
Sect Leader Jiang opened the nine gates of Earth Sword Mountain, and naturally, this bridge appeared because of him.
"So there's even such a bridge!"
Cang Ling marveling in the shadows.
"Is this bridge entirely under your control?"
With a smug look, Brother Cheng said, "That's right, as long as I'm at Earth Sword Mountain, this bridge will always exist."
"What if you leave?"
"Then it'll disappear, that's the privilege of the protagonist."
As he finished speaking, a group of sword cultivators led by Bai Luo Immortal King gathered.
