Mental Attack and White Out were forms of mental assault, capable of unleashing tens of thousands of swords in a single strike, provided that one's Mental Strength was sufficiently powerful. However, if it were to be executed with a sword, Wei Chen could hardly imagine the kind of speed required to achieve such a feat.
In Wei Chen's mind, that yet-to-be-unveiled senior brother was a true Sword God!
Following closely behind Killing God Senior, Wei Chen felt the energy guiding them deeper into the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm. He also utilized his Mental Strength to search every corner of the realm, leaving no stone unturned.
However, after searching for quite some time, the sword aura and blade force grew increasingly intense, necessitating the use of Divine Power for protection. Yet, there was still no sign of the senior brother; it seemed as though not even a ghost resided within the entire Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm.
“Killing God Senior, are you sure about this? Where exactly is the senior brother?” Wei Chen inquired.
Killing God Senior replied, “He must be here. His aura is as sharp as sword energy; I can sense he is not far from us.”
No sooner had he spoken than a figure clad in a white robe suddenly appeared before Wei Chen and Killing God Senior.
The person floated down, stepping lightly on a long sword.
Upon seeing this individual, Killing God Senior narrowed his eyes.
“Killing God Senior, is that him?”
Before Wei Chen could finish his question, a fierce sword aura slashed toward him and Killing God Senior.
The intensity of that sword energy was so overwhelming that both Wei Chen and Killing God Senior dared not confront it head-on; they leaped aside to avoid it.
“Hahaha! Killing God! After all these years, you’re still alive! You old immortal, what brings you to my Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm?” boomed the middle-aged man in white robes with laughter.
Upon hearing the man's words, Wei Chen realized this was an old acquaintance of Killing God Senior, and that strike had merely been a test.
With a cold glare at the middle-aged man, Killing God Senior shouted angrily, “Gu Xitao, have you lost your mind?”
"I just wanted to test your abilities, please forgive me." The middle-aged man named Gu Xitao was the disciple of Killing God Senior. He had learned the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords from Killing God Senior and adapted it into his own sword technique, making him extremely formidable.
"Test my abilities? You aren't qualified!" Killing God Senior retorted angrily.
Gu Xitao smiled lightly, "What, do you still want to use the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords to kill me? Killing God, over these years, I have endured hardships and hidden in this wretched place, honing a solid Mental Strength defense. Your Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords won't have much effect on me."
Killing God Senior trembled with rage, but he dared not make a move. His attacks were all Mental Attacks and could not be used recklessly. Deep down, he still worried about Gu Xitao's safety; if he tried to attack and Gu Xitao couldn't withstand it, it would lead to death.
"Gu Xitao, why are you hiding here?" Killing God Senior asked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xitao's face showed some anger as he replied, "Isn't it because of you, you old fool!"
"Because of me?" Killing God Senior frowned, seemingly unable to comprehend.
Gu Xitao continued, "You killed with abandon in the realm but ended up being taken down by someone else. You were left with only your Soul Body to escape. Out of respect for teaching me the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords, I naturally sought revenge for you. After killing quite a few from the Bloodshed Shop, I discovered that your Soul Body might have come to the Endless Divine Realm, so I followed. But unexpectedly, not only could I not find you, but due to the Void Suppression Power of the Endless Divine Realm, my strength was also diminished. With no other choice, I had to settle in this Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm just to barely maintain my power."
Hearing Gu Xitao's words, Killing God Senior's expression darkened. No matter what happened, Gu Xitao still held him in regard.
However, because Killing God Senior had once deemed Gu Xitao unworthy of being his disciple, it had greatly affected Gu Xitao, leading him to treat Killing God Senior with considerable disrespect.
Even so, after learning that something had happened to Killing God Senior, Gu Xitao did not remain idle!
His harsh words masked a deep sense of loyalty.
Wei Chen quickly analyzed and realized that Gu Xitao was actually a good person; his displayed arrogance and killing intent stemmed merely from his rebellious feelings due to Killing God Senior's past rejection.
Killing God Senior sighed softly and shook his head. "Your abilities surpass mine. However, my Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords is merely a Mental Attack Technique. Your Mental Strength isn't strong enough; yet you've adapted the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords sword technique through your own efforts. I am quite pleased."
"But... I still don't qualify to be your disciple, is that right?" Gu Xitao said coldly.
"Killing God Senior replied, 'Gu Xitao, why are you fixating on the term 'disciple'? When we were in the realm, I already told you, we have no master-disciple fate.'
'If there isn't, then there isn't. Old man, after all these years, I've come to terms with it.'
With that, Gu Xitao turned his head to Wei Chen and squinted as he asked, 'Brother, are you a disciple of Killing God?'
Wei Chen knew that this eccentric fellow was sensitive about the term 'disciple,' so he dared not admit it.
Wei Chen quickly waved his hands and said, 'No, no! Although Killing God Senior taught me the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords, my Mental Strength isn't strong enough to master it!'
'Haha, it's fine, brother! I feel like we really hit it off. How about I teach you my adapted version of the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords?' Gu Xitao said with delight, instantly increasing his fondness for Wei Chen. To him, Wei Chen was like a kindred spirit!
Wei Chen clasped his fists and smiled, 'I am Wei Chen. Thank you in advance, big brother.'
'You're welcome,' Gu Xitao replied with a smile.
Listening to the conversation between Wei Chen and Gu Xitao, Killing God Senior felt like he was going to be drunk with laughter. He naturally understood what Wei Chen was thinking; however, it didn't matter much to him. He didn't care about those titles. The respect that both Wei Chen and Gu Xitao held for him in their hearts was enough. Back in the day, Killing God Senior had been quite arrogant; he could genuinely say that Gu Xitao's Mental Strength wasn't strong enough to be his disciple!
'Gu Xitao, in this Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm, both sword energy and blade energy coexist. Have you also practiced blade techniques?' Killing God Senior asked.
Gu Xitao shook his head and replied, 'In a lifetime, one can only specialize in one thing; how can one practice so many? The blade energy here was created by another senior. That senior is from the Endless Divine Realm. When I arrived at the Endless Divine Realm, I encountered him. After searching for you for a while, I collaborated with that senior to shape this Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm.'
'Oh? Where is that person now?' Killing God Senior asked casually.
Gu Xitao replied, 'That senior has already passed away.'
"Dead?" Wei Chen and Killing God Senior were astonished. Could even a powerhouse of that level die?
Gu Xitao said, "That senior was passionate about swordsmanship, but he never cultivated any realm himself, so naturally, he would die of old age. About a thousand years, which is the limit of an ordinary human lifespan in the Endless Divine Realm, and he simply passed away."
In the Endless Divine Realm, the vast majority of people could cultivate; at the very least, they could develop some strength and live for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years without any issue. However, the senior Gu Xitao mentioned was unable to cultivate and could only practice sword techniques obsessively. His swordsmanship was extraordinary, earning him the title of Sword God! Unfortunately, without any real power, even with Gu Xitao's efforts to save him, it was futile. It seemed that those who were destined to die would inevitably meet their end.
Gu Xitao continued, "The sword techniques of that senior have been recorded. He entrusted me to find a successor for him. If you have any suitable candidates in mind, please recommend them."
Wei Chen and Killing God Senior thought for a moment and realized that none of the people around them practiced sword techniques.
"Forget it; we can discuss it later. Why did you two come to the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm? Did you come specifically to find me?" Gu Xitao asked.
Killing God Senior was too lazy to speak, but Wei Chen nodded with a smile and said, "Big brother, here's the situation. I heard about the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm from a place called Thunder Sword Sect. The founder of Thunder Sword Sect should have some connection with you."
After hearing Wei Chen's words, Gu Xitao pondered for a moment before realizing something. "You must be talking about a junior who accidentally entered the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm and encountered me. I was quite bored at that time and casually taught him a few moves. Later on, he left; I don't know whether he is alive or dead now. His strength was just average; there are many who could defeat him in the Endless Divine Realm. Some time ago, about ten thousand years ago, a junior came to the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm and found me. That junior had learned some superficial skills from the previous fellow. If we talk about seniority, that junior would be considered my disciple."
"He practiced a branch of the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords and named it Thunder Sword Technique. Is that person you’re referring to?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen nodded and said, "It should be him. Where is he now?"
"Dead." Gu Xitao shrugged helplessly and said, "In the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm, there are countless spatial anomalies. Even I couldn't fully understand them. That junior had bad luck when leaving the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm; he fell into one of those anomalies and was shredded by sword energy and blade aura."
"I've thought carefully about those spaces; they probably appeared because I accidentally pierced through the void while cultivating with Sword God," Gu Xitao felt somewhat apologetic but also helpless. Life and death are fated; the founder of Thunder Sword Sect learned some sword techniques from him and should have been able to become a dominant figure in the Endless Divine Realm after leaving the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm. But with such bad luck that he couldn't even escape from there—what could be done?
Wei Chen said lightly, "When luck is bad, even drinking cold water can get stuck in your teeth; there's nothing you can do."
"Exactly, there's simply no way around it," Gu Xitao replied helplessly.
He paused for a moment, then looked at Killing God Senior and said, "Old man, you came looking for me following the news from the Thunder Sword Sect. Could it be that the Bloodshed Shop's people have chased you all the way to the Endless Divine Realm, and you can't hold them off anymore?"
Killing God Senior snorted coldly, not giving a response.
"Old man, your body is quite strong! Why do I feel like your body has been forged from a sword?" Gu Xitao suddenly realized that Killing God Senior was no longer just a Soul Body but an actual person! Moreover, Killing God Senior's body was filled with the aura of swords; he felt as if Killing God Senior was like a sword himself.
Wei Chen chuckled to himself. This Gu Xitao really lacked mental acuity; how could he take so long to notice? He was truly slow on the uptake!
Killing God Senior helplessly said, "Gu Xitao, you really are blind! I've been here for so long, and you still haven't figured it out?"
"Who told me my mental strength is weak? I don't qualify to be your disciple," Gu Xitao replied coldly.
Wei Chen was astonished. This fellow seemed to harbor a deep resentment about not being Killing God Senior's disciple.
So what if he wasn't? It saved him from so many constraints.
Wei Chen couldn't understand what Gu Xitao meant.
Killing God Senior pursed his lips in silence. Wei Chen and Gu Xitao clasped their fists and requested, "Big brother, the people from the Bloodshed Shop are about to come after us. Please leave the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm with us and help deal with them."
Wei Chen thought Gu Xitao would readily agree, but that fellow simply waved his hand and said, "Not going."
This was infuriating!
