Chapter 132: The World’s Master
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
The improvement in physique, aside from this illusion, is indeed a genuine enhancement of the body.
When his physique reached the Initial Exteriorization stage, he felt that every cell in his body contained tremendous energy.
This was a feeling he had never experienced before.
Moreover, he felt that with ease, he could shake the surface of space and penetrate into the depths.
He could even traverse deep space solely with his physical body and vital energy.
In short, he was incredibly powerful!
As for the speed at which he could wield his sword at this level? Su Yang wasn’t quite sure and was currently experimenting.
In just about ten minutes, when he got accustomed to the immense strength his body had gained and reached a steady sword-wielding speed, he could calculate this data.
With his current speed… he could wield fifty thousand swords in an hour.
From the data, it seemed like an increase of only twenty thousand swords.
However, in reality, he had broken through numerous boundaries and limitations.
In a month, when he obtained the Nascent Soul-level top-grade ores and forged his own spirit sword, if he wielded fifty thousand swords in an hour, it would be equivalent to half a million swords.
Such a situation would be more than enough.
However, Su Yang also noticed one issue: the enhancement of his sword intent was suppressed a hundredfold by the world, but it seemed like the speed of his sword-wielding wasn’t affected?
After careful consideration, Su Yang realized the same principle applied here. When the world advanced, it suppressed the external manifestations of power, not the practitioner’s actual strength.
The practitioner’s power level remained unchanged; it was just that the external display of strength appeared weaker because the world’s quality had increased.
Your quality remained the same; it was the world’s quality that changed. So, Su Yang’s sword-wielding speed wasn’t reduced because of the world’s advancement.
Su Yang consulted the Heavenly Path’s awareness.
It turned out there was a protective mechanism he wasn’t aware of.
The more powerful the technique used to attack the world, the world would trigger a protective mechanism to continuously compress that power, making it appear less formidable.
So, the grass, trees, and land in the world didn’t change in quality; even ordinary people could farm.
After sorting through these gains, the Heavenly Path’s awareness spoke again.
“Sword Immortal, it seems I can establish a master-disciple relationship now.
Would the Sword Immortal be willing to become the master of this world?” After advancing to this level, the Heavenly Path’s awareness discovered a completely new function.
This function was excellent, incredibly excellent!
In the universe, for those who were so powerful that their true strength exceeded one’s imagination, even if one extended their perception beyond the limits of known realms, they were still beyond reach.
The beings of the universe collectively referred to such individuals as “Great
Powers.”
However, this term was based on the perspective of cultivators. If seen from the perspective of the Heavenly Path, even such beings were unknown.
In that case, these beings would receive a new title from the Heavenly Path—an “Supreme Existence.”
In the eyes of the Heavenly Path in Daxia, although Su Yang hadn’t reached the Supreme Realm yet, he possessed the potential for it.
Being able to follow such an existence would not only be an opportunity but also an honor.
“World Master? What’s the difference from now? Please don’t impose any requirements or side effects, like binding me to something. I don’t like that,” Su Yang responded without much excitement.
Wasn’t he already the World Master at this point?
“You won’t need to pay any price as the World Master, and there won’t be any restrictions on the Sword Immortal. It’s merely an identity recognized by the rules of the universe.’
“After obtaining this identity, the Sword Immortal can enter the Origin of the Galaxy and also send other living beings into the Origin of the Galaxy to contend for the Galaxy Origin.”
The Heavenly Path’s awareness explained the information it knew.
Su Yang became quite interested after hearing about the Origin of the Galaxy. He had learned from the memories of the Silver Moon Clan that this place was crucial for a world.
However, he didn’t have detailed information about its importance. Now, it seemed that this was what they called the Origin of the Galaxy.
“What is the purpose of the Galaxy Origin?” Su Yang inquired.
Since the Heavenly Path already knew about this thing, it should also know its purpose.
“A strand of Galaxy Origin is equivalent to a thousand points of World Origin,” the Heavenly Path’s awareness replied.
This greatly piqued Su Yang’s interest.
This thing was amazing. If he could accumulate thousands of strands in a single day, wouldn’t he quickly meet the requirements for advancing to the next world level?
However, he wondered about the level of danger in the Galaxy Origin.
But no matter what, even if it was dangerous, it couldn’t be to the extent of causing death to those who entered. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for ordinary world inhabitants to go inside.
After inquiring further, Su Yang obtained the answers he needed.
For the first entry, there were two choices: random entry or entering a Galaxy Origin city built by one’s own race.
However, the costs for the two methods were different.
In the first method, it only required one point of World Origin to enter randomly anywhere within the Origin of the Galaxy. Safety couldn’t be guaranteed, and you could enter and exit the Origin of the Galaxy anytime, but each entry required one point of World Origin.
The second method required a payment of one thousand points of World Origin. It allowed you to form a contract with the nearest Galaxy Origin city to your location, pay them one thousand points of World Origin, and directly enter the contracted city. You could also enter and exit freely.
Exit conditions: None. You could exit at any time while inside the Origin of the Galaxy.
Entry conditions: Your universe’s location must be within a contracted galaxy. After entering, you would appear within the contracted city.
After understanding the Galaxy Origin, Su Yang realized that the level of danger was extremely low!
Not only was it extremely low for him, but it was also low for anyone and any race.
Being able to exit at any time meant that you could simply escape if you encountered danger.
Moreover, when you entered, you would be inside a contracted city, not in a dangerous area.
Such a place, which provided access to high-level resources and ensured your safety, was undoubtedly of great importance.
However, to ensure safety, the price was quite substantial.
It required one thousand points of World Origin.
This cost was truly significant.
Given his current speed of obtaining World Origin, it would take about twenty days to accumulate that amount. What about other small worlds?
For newly established planets that had just entered a small world, even if they obtained one point of World Origin per day, it would still take them a thousand days.
Using up all their resources, it would still be difficult for a person to enter the Origin of the Galaxy.
Based on the current situation, even for a world master, the cost would be painful to bear, and it wouldn’t be something they’d casually use for others.
In any case, this function had impressed Su Yang.
And since the identity of the world master wouldn’t affect him in any way, he agreed to let the Heavenly Path’s awareness recognize him as the master.
At this moment, if this scene were placed on another planet, Su Yang wondered how those cultivators who begged the Heavenly Path to recognize them as masters would feel.
Ordinary world masters usually tried to please the Heavenly Path for hundreds or even thousands of years, planning meticulously to succeed.
Yet here, they hadn’t seen the Heavenly Path’s awareness begging someone to recognize them as their master.
The Heavenly Path in Daxia hadn’t considered these aspects; it simply recognized Su Yang as its master upon his agreement..
