Martial Master

The recognition of the origin signifies that Qin Chen is an acknowledged individual in this universe.

Normally, supreme level experts would be suppressed by the origin of the universe, but once recognized by the origin, it would not suppress Qin Chen.

Not only would it refrain from suppressing him, but it would even provide convenience to Qin Chen.

"Hmph, origin of the universe, you are becoming more and more foolish. Do you really think this kid can keep you safe?"

Yuanmo Ancestor looked up at the sky with disdain in his eyes. Suddenly, he rushed forward and slammed his palm down towards Qin Chen!

Boom! Infinite power gathered in the heavens and earth, directly enveloping Qin Chen, not far away. It was as if the entire strength of the Demon Realm had converged into a massive hand.

In the distance, Qin Chen's pupils abruptly constricted. He thought quickly, and the Mysterious Rusty Sword transformed into a sword light that slashed out violently. At that moment, a pitch-black fist imprint crashed directly in front of him, striking the Mysterious Rusty Sword!

Bang! A terrifying force erupted from in front of Qin Chen, causing him to stagger back repeatedly, unable to stabilize himself under this overwhelming power. But suddenly, a horrifying aura erupted from the Mysterious Rusty Sword.

This aura was extremely cold, colliding violently with the energy released from the pitch-black fist imprint.

With a loud bang, Qin Chen's figure came to a sudden halt, and the black fist imprint unleashed by Yuanmo Ancestor was actually blocked by Qin Chen.

Seeing this scene, Yuanmo Ancestor's expression instantly turned ugly!

Yuanmo Ancestor stared intensely at the Mysterious Rusty Sword in Qin Chen's hand, "What kind of treasure is this sword? Why do I sense an extremely familiar aura? No, that is... Sword Demon Power?"

Yuanmo Ancestor revealed an astonished expression.

The Sword Demon was an incredibly terrifying expert from ancient times, possessing power that reached the heavens, challenging warriors from ten thousand clans with few rivals. He later directly challenged the rules of the origin of the universe and was ultimately suppressed by them.

But why would the aura of the Sword Demon appear in the Mysterious Rusty Sword before him?

Boom! At this moment, a chilling aura surged from the Mysterious Rusty Sword, transforming into a terrifying sword intent that shot into the sky. A dark phantom materialized in the heavens and earth.

As soon as this phantom appeared, all the swords in the hands of the swordsmen within a billion miles of the Demon Realm trembled wildly, as if they wanted to break free and fly away.

Everyone's expressions changed in shock, hastily urging their origins to control the swords in their hands, each one stunned as they looked at the dark phantom.

This dark phantom was not towering, but the aura it emitted was like that of a god or demon, radiating endless violence.

"Yuanmo Ancestor, long time no see."

This dark phantom took a step forward, coldly looking at Yuanmo Ancestor and speaking.

"You are... the Sword Demon?!"

Looking at the dark phantom before him, Yuanmo Ancestor's eyes gradually darkened.

The Sword Demon, in ancient times, was a true half-step transcendent expert. Although only a fragment of divine soul remained now, he was still formidable.

Yuanmo Ancestor frowned and coldly said, "I remember you used to be fearless, even daring to challenge the Sword Ancestor of the human race’s Heaven-Piercing Sword Pavilion. You even dared to challenge the rules of the origin of the universe. Why have you now become this kid's subordinate?"

The Sword Demon replied calmly, "Yuanmo Ancestor, no matter how high your talent, you will never become the peak expert of the cosmic sea in this lifetime. Do you know why?"

Yuanmo Ancestor frowned and asked, "Why?"

The Sword Demon glanced at Qin Chen and said, "The heights one can achieve in life are sometimes not determined by how hard one works, but by the choices one makes. If you walk the wrong path, how can you reach the destination?"
