Sword soul heart!

Chapter 575: Heart of Saber Soul

! [First Update]

While Ye Tian was hiding, many Divine Rank examinees in the fourth round of the assessment world were eliminated one by one by the powerful creatures of this world. Even first-tier Eternal Grade powerhouses found it hard to resist once they encountered danger.

Within the mountain range.

Ye Tian hid quietly. He wasn't arrogant enough to scout the surroundings, as doing so might expose his position.

Instead of that, it was better to stay hidden like this.

But clearly, Yuangu Hall would not allow him to stay hidden forever.

Suddenly.

Ye Tian sensed a dangerous aura; a massive creature appeared in the sky above the mountain range where he was located.

This was a… massive creature similar to a Kun. Its aura had actually reached the Great God-level, and it wasn't an ordinary Great God-level, but rather that… incredibly terrifying kind of Great God-level powerhouse.

In terms of strength, Ye Tian admitted he was no match for this creature.

"Roar!!!!" zero four seven

"

The creature roared, then fiercely unleashed a water pillar toward the mountain range where Ye Tian was.

The water pillar crashed down, shattering countless mountain Peaks.

Immediately, Ye Tian fled, using his Divine Rank Space Talent to teleport repeatedly in an attempt to evade the creature.

But the creature had clearly discovered Ye Tian's presence and actually gave chase.

Fortunately, speed was not this creature's forte. It failed to catch up to Ye Tian, who possessed the Divine Rank Space Talent, allowing him to escape successfully.

Through this incident, Ye Tian confirmed one thing.

The creatures in this world were likely illusory creations rather than real living beings, as he couldn't sense any talents from them.

The previous Cursed Poison Beasts had talents, but this creature did not, even though it appeared to be a real living being on the surface.

Therefore, this creature was definitely not real but illusory. It was just so realistic that Ye Tian found it difficult to distinguish with his Physical Body or Divine Sense. However, no matter how realistic a creature was, it could not deceive Ye Tian's Copy Talent.

Additionally, these creatures likely had the ability to perceive outsiders. Perhaps it was a permission granted to them by Yuangu Hall. If so, no matter how he changed his form, he wouldn't be able to evade them.

Once these creatures approached him, they would discover his presence and attack.

Thus, hiding couldn't completely avoid danger, but running around aimlessly would be even more dangerous.

Given the situation just now, if it were any other Your Highness, they would definitely have been unable to escape.

From then on, Ye Tian encountered an attack every so often. The creatures attacking him were all powerhouses at or above the Great God-level, and none were ordinary Great God-levels.

Consequently, Ye Tian fled time and again, coming close to death several times.

As time passed, the number of Divine Rank examinees in this world grew fewer and fewer. Even the Demon Race's Crown Prince Xuefeng was eliminated in an accident; his luck was truly poor.

Within a forest.

Ye Tian hid here, thinking he could stay for a while, but he unexpectedly encountered an even more terrifying creature.

Rumble!!! From the Void Realm, a… giant python emerged and launched an attack aimed at Ye Tian.

That powerful aura had already surpassed the limit, reaching the Star System Level. Moreover, it was at a level that could be called invincible even among Star System Levels. It was estimated that even a Star System Level powerhouse like Golden Chen True Lord could not surpass this giant python.

Ye Tian raised his blade and slashed down fiercely, but when the Saber Qi struck the giant python, it was like a wooden sword hitting steel—it shattered instantly without harming the creature in the slightest.

At the very moment Ye Tian was about to be eliminated, he activated his Substitute Death Talent, swapping the positions of his main body and his Substitute Death Clone.

Instantly, Ye Tian's Substitute Death Clone was annihilated by the giant python, while his main body left the area and arrived at another location… "Fortunately, I prepared in advance and left a Substitute Death Clone here; otherwise, I would have definitely been eliminated!"

Ye Tian murmured.

The only pity was that the Substitute Death Talent could not be used again for a short time. If Ye Tian encountered danger again, he would truly be eliminated.

However, Ye Tian's luck was decent; he didn't encounter any major danger for the rest of the day.

But on the following day, Ye Tian's luck turned sour. He encountered a… Star River Level creature. With just a single glance from the opponent, Ye Tian completely lost consciousness. By the time he came to, he was already in a large hall.

Clearly, he had been eliminated.

"I wonder if I'm the one who survived the longest,"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

Just then, the voice of the Artifact Spirit descended: "Examinee, congratulations on becoming the Divine Rank who survived the second longest. You may receive your reward. Go and take your pick!"

"Second longest?"

Ye Tian wasn't disappointed. The fourth round of assessment tested not just strength but also luck. If there were no other powerful creatures nearby, one wouldn't die… In an assessment that was half based on luck, being able to take second place was already very good; he didn't dare hope for too much.

Soon, a pile of treasures appeared before Ye Tian, allowing him to choose one.

Ye Tian followed his intuition and chose a saber-shaped crystal that he felt would be useful.

He didn't know what it was, but he took it because it felt useful.

After Ye Tian put away the saber-shaped crystal, he was teleported out of Yuangu Hall, leaving the Void Realm where Yuangu Hall was located and returning to the Human Race Supreme Hall.

He didn't know if the Kunwu Supremes had… come out yet, nor did he ask. He immediately went to check his gains.

First was the saber-shaped crystal. He wasn't sure what its purpose was, so he naturally had to check it first.

Soon, from the information contained within the saber-shaped crystal, he learned of its origin and use.

"Heart of Saber Soul!"

This was the name of the crystal. It had many uses: it could be used to comprehend the Knife Dao and increase the speed of cultivating knife techniques. But its most important use was to assist in condensing the Knife Law Origin.

The Heart of Saber Soul contained a natural Knife Origin within it. It was a priceless treasure; even a Supreme-level swordsman would surely be moved if they encountered such a Heart of Saber Soul.

"What a great treasure. My Knife Law Origin has always been just a bit short. Now that I have the Heart of Saber Soul, I can completely condense the Knife Law Origin. This way, I'll soon be able to perfect the Heavenly Moon Blade to the level of a Peak-grade Knife Dao secret technique.

Furthermore, in the future, when I enter 2.

2 areas where Laws are suppressed, I can still unleash the power of Knife Dao secret techniques without being restricted by the area."

Ye Tian was incredibly excited. He immediately began to refine and absorb the Heart of Saber Soul, attempting to use it to break through the final barrier and condense the Knife Law Origin.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, a year had gone by.

The powerhouses of the Universe's myriad races had mostly emerged from Yuangu Hall. Only a few Supremes and Dominators still remained inside.

At this time, Ye Tian had no time to pay attention to these matters. He had been continuously absorbing and refining the Heart of Saber Soul, using it to condense his own Knife Law Origin.

On this day.

Strands of Knife Law were born from within Ye Tian's body, accumulating more and more, showing a trend of evolving into the Knife Law Origin.

"I'm about to succeed!"

Ye Tian was extremely excited.
