After Song Zheng came out of seclusion, he wanted to stop the war immediately.
He knew what kind of enemy the Empire was dealing with.
That was an Empire with a Nascent Soul Stage expert.
It was definitely not something that the current Qiankun Empire could deal with.
However, by the time Song Zheng reacted, it was already too late.
At this moment, the Qiankun Empire was already fighting with that small empire.
Unexpectedly, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was very angry because of this and even personally dealt with the entire Qiankun Empire.
Even the second Core Formation Stage leveled expert of the Qiankun Empire had fallen because of it.
In the end, under the leadership of the original Nascent Soul Stage expert, the small empire fought all the way to the capital of the Qiankun Empire.
This time, the Nascent Soul Stage expert no longer cared about Song Zheng’s reputation and began a massacre.
Song Zheng could only watch and could not stop it.
It was also during this year that Song Zheng personally witnessed everything he had once protected turn into ruins.
Facing the Imperial capital that was filled with the flames of war, Song Zheng was very confused.
He did not know how things had developed to this point.
Just as Song Zheng was lost in his thoughts, his Master, whom he had not seen for a long time, appeared.
The old master looked at the hesitant Song Zheng and asked, “Disciple, do you understand what your way of the sword is now?”
“Master, is this because I haven’t cultivated enough in the way of the sword?”
The old master shook his head and said, “This matter has nothing to do with your sword path. The root of this matter…is the human heart.”
“Human heart?”
“Yes, the human heart.”
“Then if 1 understand the human heart, will I be able to stop this from happening?”
The old master shook his head again, “No, it can’t be stopped…because the human heart can’t be severed.”
“But Master, didn’t you say that the sword I learned was specialized in severing confusion? Why can’t I get rid of the confusion in my heart?”
The old master walked to his side and took out the wooden sword that could not even kill a chicken.
“Who said that your sword slashes were lost? The reason why you couldn’t slash was not because there was something wrong with the sword. It was because there was something wrong with you.”
“In your heart, you don’t want to cut it off.”
Hearing this, the talented Song Zheng seemed to understand something.
He began to recall his own heart, when did it begin to change?
Perhaps it was because he came to the Imperial capital and saw the prosperity here.
Perhaps it was because he met Princess Liuli and saw the feelings in his heart.
As he thought about it, Song Zheng suddenly understood.
The reason why things had developed to this point was because of him.
It was his inaction towards his son that caused his son to become more and more indulgent, and in the end, he caused a huge disaster.
It was his doting on his wife that caused her to start doing things without considering the consequences. She thought that he could settle everything.
The confusion in his heart was never because of himself.
Instead, it came from the various people around him.
He could restrain himself, but he could not restrain the people around him.
It was like a huge net that tied everyone together.
Thinking of this, Song Zheng suddenly knew what to do.
He had a sword that could sever the World of Mortals.
This was…the Red Dust Sword.
The moment he comprehended the Red Dust Sword, Song Zheng’s realm, which had been stuck for many years, finally relaxed.
Once one achieved enlightenment, they would ascend with a realization.
After entering the Nascent Soul Stage, Song Zheng displayed his terrifying talent.
He held the Sword of Non-killing left behind by the old master and ‘killed’ the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator in the sky above the Qiankun Imperial capital.
However, this kill was different from the normal kill.
He didn’t destroy the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator’s body or primordial spirit.
What he cut was the net around the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
These nets were the ‘fate’ between the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator and the others. In other words, he had severed off his opponent’s worldly distractions.
At that moment, the Nascent Soul cultivator felt as if he had disappeared from this world.
He could clearly see the people around him and sense the things around him.
However, he could not affect these things in any way.
Such a situation was even more unbearable than killing him.
This was Song Zheng’s way of the sword, the Red Dust Sword.
A sword that did not kill, but was even more terrifying than killing.
Because he could sever the proof of a person’s existence in the mortal world.
Moreover, his world of mortals even included the way of the heavens of this place.
After all, in a sense, the strength of a cultivator was inextricably linked to the way of the heavens.
Cultivators used spiritual energy to absorb the power of heaven and earth and transform it into their own bodies.
Then, they used some methods to use this power.
However, Song Zheng’s sword could even cut through these.
When a cultivator lost the ability to borrow the power of heaven and earth, he was no different from an ordinary person.
At this moment, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, whose connection with the world had been cut off by Song Zheng, was facing such a problem.
He had completely lost his connection with this mortal world and had become an ordinary person.
After Song Zheng cut off the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator’s connection, he also cut off his own connection with the mortal world in the next second.
At that moment, it was as if Song Zheng had never existed in the entire Qiankun Empire.
Everyone only remembered that there was once a powerful Core Formation Stage cultivator in the history of the Qiankun Empire.
However, they had no idea who this Core Formation Stage cultivator was, what his cultivation level was, or what he had experienced.
After losing his ties to the Qiankun Empire, Song Zheng felt unprecedentedly relaxed.
The old master looked at Song Zheng, who had used the Red Dust Sword, and said with a smile, “Disciple, do you understand the true meaning of my sword now?”
