Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao Chapter 1527 - 51: Nirvana King Rule Perfection

Zhou Yan's pseudo Saint Spirit, having achieved a stable formation, marked a significant stride towards transforming into the King Realm!

Under these circumstances, as Zhou Yan underwent this transformation, his emotions were a tumultuous blend of excitement and complexity.

Throughout this entire process, Zhou Yan was acutely aware of Bai Ying's immense contribution, yet words felt superfluous, as their understanding transcended the need for spoken language.

For with a mere glance, Bai Ying could comprehend Zhou Yan's innermost thoughts, and similarly, Zhou Yan only needed a fleeting look at Bai Ying to grasp her sentiments.

A profound, unspoken accord between their hearts, elevated to its zenith.

Bai Ying exuded contentment, while Zhou Yan was overcome with deep emotion.

...

It was only after Zhou Yan had fully stabilized his own realm and his Eternal Pseudo Saint Spirit had achieved a state of equilibrium that Bai Ying finally withdrew her aura. She returned with Zhou Yan to the Heavenly Fox Ancient Sacrifice Platform within the Inheritance Land.

Upon arriving, Bai Ying expressed her reluctance, yet she still imparted her counsel: "Husband, now that your Eternal Spirit has finally transitioned into a pseudo Saint Spirit, the situation is far more favorable than I had initially envisioned. Your immediate priority is to acclimate yourself to the diverse capabilities of the pseudo Saint Spirit and refine your combat prowess to an unparalleled state of proficiency."

Bai Ying continued, "Only then, when you venture into the Holy Spirit Land, will you be less vulnerable. Were you in the true Saint Spirit state, such extensive concerns would be unnecessary, but at present, you must exercise extreme caution in numerous aspects, as you are, after all, still a pseudo Saint Spirit."

Hearing this, Zhou Yan nodded in agreement and replied, "Rest assured, Yingying, I grasp all of this completely."

With those words, Zhou Yan made preparations to depart. Despite his considerable reluctance, he recognized the urgency of the situation and the necessity of reaching the Holy Spirit Land as swiftly as possible.

Prior to that, honing his combat power and becoming intimately familiar with his Eternal Saint Spirit was of paramount importance.

After exchanging a few more words with Bai Ying, Zhou Yan, under her wistful gaze, bid farewell to the White Fox Ancestral Land.

Having departed from the Ancestral Land, Zhou Yan made his way back to the Elf Domain.

This time, Zhou Yan opted not to reunite with his beloved companions. Instead, after issuing some directives, he made ready to enter the Elf Domain Sea.

The Elf Domain Sea is an exceptionally unique locale, functioning much like an Inheritance Land within the Elf Domain itself.

In essence, this place shares a similar nature with other significant sites such as the Silent Annihilation Ancient City.

It stands as a singularly distinct and peculiar location within the expansive Elf Domain.

Here, Zhou Yan anticipated that he would be able to undertake his final cultivation, achieving the most potent honing of his abilities.

With a sense of complete ease regarding the Elf Domain, and with the guardianship of Fei Ya and Jiang Yuning, supplemented by Feng Zishuang's intermittent aid, the Elf Domain had attained a state of absolute stability. The twelve domain forces that Zhou Yan had initially intended to unify were already demonstrating inclinations towards allegiance, largely due to Wan Tianya's influence radiating from the Ten Thousand Sword Domain.

Furthermore, the Sky Saber Mantis Domain, the homeland of Fei Ya, naturally presented no opposition, readily pledging its loyalty to the Elf Domain owing to Fei Ya's connection.

Fei Ya was well aware of Zhou Yan's current formidable might, and not solely his; the strengths of Jiang Yuning and Qian Luoshui were also quite considerable.

To say nothing of Feng Zishuang's awakened power, which, though still incomplete, rivaled that of a King. In such a context, even the Great Elder of the Sky Saber Mantis Race, previously beset by troubles, would readily understand his position if Fei Ya were to reveal even a fraction of their strength.

Consequently, the consolidation of rule over the Elf Domain proceeded with unprecedented swiftness and smoothness.

Zhou Yan, unconcerned with these administrative matters, entrusted the development and operational aspects of the Elf Domain to those within his close circle.

Following a period of cultivation exchange with Feng Zishuang, Zhou Yan ventured alone once more into the deepest reaches of the Elf Domain Sea.

As Zhou Yan's afterimage plunged into the profound depths of the Elf Domain Sea, numerous perilous and intricate singularity fluctuations, once unknown, revealed themselves. Yet, upon re-entering the Elf Domain Sea now, many of the previously perceived significant dangers no longer posed a threat.

Zhou Yan not only revisited the very location where the Xuanwu Dragon Turtle had once resided but also journeyed beyond that region, venturing ever deeper into the sea's core.

Within the boundless void, extremely volatile singularity energies surged; the transformations in these energies had become remarkably unstable. Zhou Yan deliberately selected such a locale, venturing alone into the heart of this volatile void, allowing the surrounding, perpetually rupturing singularities to unleash waves of destructive, devouring power.

This immense power subjected Zhou Yan to relentless, extreme impacts, akin to enduring continuous assaults from a Half-step King's Eternal Spirit.

This would have been an act of utter suicide for Zhou Yan in the past.

However, now, with Zhou Yan's Nirvana King Immortal Principle having reached its apex state, he remained as steadfast as a mountain amidst these cataclysmic transformations.

Even when occasionally facing the overwhelmingly furious annihilative power’s singular point’s shattering impact, Zhou Yan would endure merely injuries.

However, Zhou Yan’s potent Nirvana King Immortal Principle ability manifested at this precise moment.

Under such circumstances, Zhou Yan’s entire being seemed to coalesce into its own entity, an extreme.

In these extreme conditions, Zhou Yan himself transformed into a singularity, with this singularity forging a Yin Yang and chaos upon the Great Dao. Annihilation and rebirth appeared to be unfolding within Zhou Yan’s Eternal Spirit, so that where there was destruction, an immediate rebirth followed.

And where there was sedimentation, an ascent would promptly ensue.

Amidst these circumstances, Zhou Yan’s alterations were remarkably swift and intricate. At the very instant of injury, Zhou Yan drew a deep breath, and once the Nirvana King Immortal Principle was evoked, he instantly reverted to his prime condition. In this scenario, Zhou Yan’s combat power endurance proved exceptionally robust and formidable.

Under these conditions, Zhou Yan’s King Immortal Principle also commenced a form of verification and underwent a trial.

And within such a trial, Zhou Yan began to scrutinize his deficiencies, with the objective of elevating this state to an even more advanced tier.

Through such tempering, Zhou Yan ceaselessly advanced, persistently challenging more terrifying destructive tribulations, and unceasingly employing the Nirvana King Immortal Principle to validate his path toward the Eighth Rule and the Ninth Great Perfection of the King Immortal Principle.

This journey is fraught with difficulty.

Yet, within this self-oblivious state, Zhou Yan progressed from the initial stable singularity zone all the way to the profoundly perilous expanse within the void.

There, annihilation and rebirth seemed to occur perpetually, and transitions between existence and oblivion happened incessantly.

Zhou Yan settled into a cross-legged posture, and as he slowly ascended, a singularity disintegrated, and the terrifying tearing force directly expelled Zhou Yan’s Eternal Spirit, causing his Eternal Spirit’s Fake Saint Spirit to become almost unstable, instantly ejected from its physical vessel.

Simultaneously, the boundless destructive energy emanating from singularities violently struck Zhou Yan’s Eternal Spirit, rendering his Eternal Spirit unstable once more.

The trace of instability from before had not resurfaced after Zhou Yan presumed it vanished following the Dust World ordeal, as he could no longer perceive it. But in reality, it had not abated, nor had it fully healed; rather, it persisted.

Under ordinary conditions, this latent flaw remained hidden, and Zhou Yan could not detect that concealed imperfection. However, in this brutal and treacherous domain, Zhou Yan immediately sensed the various shortcomings of his Eternal Spirit.

Consequently, Zhou Yan withdrew a certain distance, evaded innumerable perils, and commenced his comprehension of the Nirvana Immortal Principle, retracing every path he had previously cultivated, improving progressively.

Here, Zhou Yan was neither hastening time nor concerned about squandering it by delaying crucial matters, for even if anxious, without the Fake Saint Spirit stabilized, he could not enter the Holy Spirit Land.

The Holy Spirit Land, perhaps the ultimate frontier in the realm of cultivation, houses the genesis of all truths, the origination and final destination of all planes.

Zhou Yan, immersed in profound contemplation and cultivation, gradually mended his injuries, concurrently transforming the rule-world appertaining to his Eternal Spirit.

This time, during the transformation, Zhou Yan discerned the re-emergence of the Lei Yan Continent, and internally, it presented as an exceedingly refined world, a remarkably ancient one.

Zhou Yan felt an impulse to revive primeval cultural rites, desiring to reshape this world’s cultivation paradigms.

However, subsequent to this surge of impulse, Zhou Yan ultimately refrained from acting upon it.

Firstly, undertaking such an endeavor would necessitate considerable time, deep attunement to the Dao, and profound mastery over Heavenly Dao Creation and all associated principles. Secondly, Zhou Yan presently lacked both the temporal resources and the mental fortitude to divert his attention to such affairs.

Although this undertaking was linked to the future solidification of the King World, Zhou Yan no longer possessed the luxury of waiting for the future; incremental progress was no longer a viable option.

Zhou Yan centered his thoughts, aligning his Eternal Spirit with his King Dao’s Sword Soul, initiating a completely novel enlightenment.

Within this Land of Annihilation, Zhou Yan apprehended the Silent Annihilation King Sword Dao.

Zhou Yan brandished the Thunderflame Yuan Ci Sword, embodying the diverse mysteries of the Gang Wind Singularity, corresponding to the life-and-death cycles of singular points, gradually accumulating his own Dao, bit by bit.

This process was not arduous; Zhou Yan possessed numerous insights, particularly profound revelations attained during his journey on the heavenly road within the Town Domain Demon Origin, having already established a solid groundwork in numerous aspects, and having spent a lifetime without overt cultivation in the Dust World, he had instead delved deeper inwardly.

Confronting the life-and-death evolutions of the singularities, Zhou Yan swiftly forged his own King Dao.

Zhou Yan christened this new King Dao the 'Silent Annihilation King Sword Dao.'

This marks Zhou Yan's fifth Sword Dao, added to his repertoire alongside the Ancestral Dragon Sword Dao, Affectionate Sword Dao, Lifeless Sword Dao, and Lonely Sword Dao.

Yet, these Sword Dao systems are not disparate; they originate from the same source, capable of merging or splitting as needed.

This realization allowed Zhou Yan to grasp the mysteries of the Sword Soul more profoundly, its majestic will manifesting within, appearing both profound and immeasurable.

Nevertheless, within this Tao, Zhou Yan's Eternal Pseudo Saint Spirit began to achieve considerable stability.
