Walker Of The Worlds

Jing Wei was someone who had always pursued to learn more about weapons and how to make them. It was the goal of the Jing clan and what most of their people had inherited as well.

His pursuit of weapon refinement and forging was so high that even his Dao Embryo was in the form of a hammer. In order to perfect his understanding of weapons, he took them up, even going so far as to comprehend his own sword intent.

For he knew, to make a good sword, he needed to first learn it.

Jing Wei was no different from the many that had come before him. But he was the first one who had reached the level of making an Immortal weapon.

Reaching the Immortal Ascension realm was a mystery for most. There was no single concrete method of reaching it and most that did so was due to luck. There were many theories as to how one reached that realm.

Some said that simply cultivating hard enough was the key to doing it, while some needled to look for fortunate encounters. But among these theories, there was one that was often considered as the key.

This theory was none other than fulfilling one's goal and going beyond it.

This goal could be anything, from revenge, to becoming kings, to even something as simple as seeing some new place.

And for Jing Wei, it was this theory that proved to be true. For when he made the Immortal Sword, he knew he was close to a breakthrough, but he had not realized it. Only when he came close to death and the sword helps fight against, it did he realize it.

That was also when he deemed himself worthy of naming the sword.

Names held power, and when something was named, it was given an aspect of existence. Immortal Tools and Weapons held consciousness and were sentient. Giving them names was the final step to completing them.

Reaching his breakthrough with the Sword was what Jing Wei needed, and a name was thus made.

The Ever-Reaching Blade.

A Blade that would reach as far as the wielder willed it.

~WOONG~

Stormy spirit Qi churned around Jing Wei as his power only increased more and more. Spirit Qi in the air danced and gathered around him, fueling not only his own power, but also the Ever-reaching Blade.

"I shall consecrate this immortal blade with your blood!" Jing Wei said, while the Ever-reaching Blade hummed in excitement as well.

It too desired the same, for it as it had inherited its creator's will!

Master Bell Mountain was overwhelmed by it all, as he could feel that Jing Wei was far too powerful than expected.

The Immortal Association realm didn't have any sub stages within it and was said to be a complete realm in itself. The difference in power within them could be vastly different and it was very hard to differentiate it.

But there were always some people who went above and beyond their peers. When they reached the Immortal Ascension realm they would be far stronger than other Immortal Ascension realm cultivators who had been in that realm for many years longer than them.

Master Bell Mountain felt afraid that Jing Wei was one of them.

~SHING~

The Ever-reaching Blade extended in the blink of an eye and reached the man's head, almost cutting his ear off.

~slick~

Still, a small nick was left, and the man's earlobe was chopped off from the residual energy.

"Ugh! Damn this!" Master Bell Mountain could feel the energy of the Immortal Weapon lingering on in his ear.

Even after injuring him, it had not faded and was still trying to enter his head and he had to block it off using his own Qi.

"ARGH!!" But just as Master Bell Mountain was considering his own condition, another cry was heard.

His eyes went wide as he looked to the other direction, only to find out Master White Mountain had just been hit with what looked like a long cortex of metal spirit Qi.

~BOOM~

"Now!" Lin Mu called out.

~SHATTER~

The ice that was trapping the Centennial Sword Ancestor was broken and the man was freed.

~SLASH~

Continuing his earlier attack, during which he was frozen, the Centennial Sword Ancestor slashed out. The sword light emitted from his sword was different from normal, it was as if it held starlight within it and shimmered endlessly.

Master White Mountain was too busy trying to get a hold of himself from the surprise attacks and couldn't defend in time. After all, he also had a mass of Metal spirit Qi trying to ravage his body at the same time.

Normally he should have been able to defend against an attack like this, but he was still reeling in from using his Dao skill, which had also been repelled by Jing Wei earlier.

Additionally, the turbulent spirit Qi from Jing Wei's breakthrough had also sent him in a tizzy. Master White Mountain felt his inferior cultivation base as compared to Jing Wei.

He was truly weaker than Jing Wei, who had just reached the Immortal Ascension realm!

In the hundreds of thoughts that littered his mind, the thought of dying appeared many times, and he soon got to experience it.

~SPLATTER~

Centennial Sword Ancestor's slash reached Master White Mountain in the form of a sword light and split apart his body in half. His defenses were already wrecked by Lin Wu's Metal Devastator and left him vulnerable to the sword slash.

"NOOO!!!!" Master Bell Mountain let out an unwilling cry which caught the attention of Master Cull Mountain too.

The woman lost her focus upon seeing this and got struck by Little Shrubby's claws.

~HISS~

Her flesh sizzled under the flames powered by the Dao traces of fire and the attack of the Rainbow Pill Ancestor followed soon after.

~BOOM~ BOOM~ BOOM~

Clouds of colorful smoke surrounded her in the next moment, arresting her energy.

~KABOOM~

A few seconds later, Master White Mountain's body exploded under the aftereffects of the Metal Devastator!
