“A Sword of Law?”
Feeling the principle contained within this Sword of Law, Pei Xuanjing mumbled to himself.
But in a flash, he understood its method of formation.
The next moment, the power of the Sword of Law was utterly depleted and dispersed into thin air, as if it had never existed.
“How is this possible!” Xue Hanyue’s normally impassive face was filled with immense shock.
No one understood the power of this Sword of Law better than them, but for it to be so easily subdued and destroyed by Pei Xuanjing, it overturned her perception.
Xue Hanyi’s gaze towards Pei Xuanjing was dazed; his eyes looked as though they had lost their vitality, becoming dull and lifeless.
An unbelievable guess formed in his mind. With a somewhat hoarse voice, he addressed Pei Xuanjing, “You’ve actually entered the Fifth Order!”
The Sword of Law is the unique method of the Fifth Order Cultivator. An average cultivator could hardly resist its force, let alone deplete its law and principle. Only one of equal Fifth Order strength could accomplish this!
“Fifth Order?” Pei Xuanjing lightly frowned, immediately understanding the hierarchy the other was referring to. He calmly replied, “If you consider the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm as the Fifth Order, then indeed, I have entered the Fifth Order.”
Unfortunately for Xue Hanyi, his luck was a bit sour. If he had used other lethal moves, even a real Divine Weapon would pose a greater threat to Pei Xuanjing than this Sword of Law.
After all, due to the current resurgence of Heaven and Earth, even if Pei Xuanjing possesses the ability of the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm, the power he could exhibit would at most be equivalent to Xue Hanyi’s, both of whom belong to the Spiritual Realm.
Regrettably, his killing move just happened to be this Sword of Law, which symbolizes the Taoist cultivation methods and principles of the Fifth Order Cultivator. This killing move might be almost unstoppable for other opponents, but for Pei Xuanjing, it was the least threatening.
After all, even if Pei Xuanjing’s abilities were currently restricted, his realm was undiminished, and his understanding of the laws of Heaven and Earth never waned.
One might say he was on the same level as this Sword of Law. But after all, the Sword of Law was an inanimate object, how could it ever really harm Pei Xuanjing?
“Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm!” Xue Hanyue’s eyes showed an look of disbelief as she shook her head in surprise, “That’s absolutely impossible!”
This ancestral land had barely started its resurgence. The power it could bear should definitely not exceed the Second Layer of the Spiritual Realm. Even their Spirit Realm Third Level was noticeably suppressed.
Moreover, the king himself had said this. As the king of the ancient Xue country, such a powerful man would never be wrong.
“Little sister!” Xue Hanyi stopped Xue Hanyue’s words.
He looked at Pei Xuanjing with eyes full of shock and disbelief. No matter what, he couldn’t understand why a Fifth Order Cultivator would appear in this ancestral land, for this had shattered his beliefs.
But the fact remained that the man in front of him was indeed a Fifth Order Cultivator; the ease with which he just dismissed the Sword of Law was proof enough.
What worried Xue Hanyi most was that, judging by the time of the world’s revival, it had only been a few years. In such a short time, the man in front of him had risen from a mere Third Order common martial artist to Fifth Order. What a monstrous talent was needed for that!
This was pretty much unheard of, even in their own territories.
Moreover, if everything was as the king had told them before they set out—that the revival of Heaven and Earth wasn’t an overnight event, but a gradual process, and the strength of those able to return was also increasing—then they had a problem.
Originally, the ones who could return were at most Second Layer of the Spiritual Realm; their return had cost the king immense energy and resources.
For a Fifth Order expert to truly return to the ancestral land, it would take at least ten years, no less.
The implications were almost unimaginable.
Do you know what this meant? It meant that even if he was just a Cultivator newly entering the Fifth Order, he would be an absolute powerhouse in this ancestral land. No one else here would be his match.
“Fifth Order! Never had I thought that I would encounter a Fifth Order Cultivator here.” Xue Hanyi’s expression was somewhat gloomy.
People like Zhao Baiyang in the distance were also dismayed, their faces filled with complicated emotions beyond words.
From the moment Xue Hanyi and his sister had appeared, the group’s emotions had been fluctuating wildly, ceaselessly.
Upon hearing the pair hail from the supposedly lost ancient country, many thoughts were provoked in Zhao Baiyang and the others.
If the people from the ancient Xue country could return, it meant that the country had not perished in the unprecedented disaster that had occurred thousands of years ago during the Tang Dynasty.
This indicated that, besides them, there must be other powers out there. Maybe one day, those people would return too.
Moreover, some might have already returned and were just hiding somewhere, not blatantly exposing themselves like Xue Hanyi.
For Pei Xuanjing, the sudden appearance of Xue Hanyi and the others had disrupted his planning and calculations.
And for Zhao Baiyang and others, wasn’t it the same?
Having quickly broken through to the Spiritual Realm after the revival of Heaven and Earth, everyone had their own aims and goals for the new era.
Pei Xuanjing chose to compromise for the sake of his own plan, so why should Zhao Baiyang and the others compromise to achieve peace and develop their own power, too?
Everything had been going according to plan, with Zhao Baiyang and the others challenging Pei Xuanjing just to see the difference in their strengths.
Although they were quite humiliated by their loss to Pei Xuanjing, the outcome was completely within their expectations.
However, the appearance of Jie Xi Lei and Xue Hanyi caught them off guard.
If after consulting the Netherworld Book and simulating the World of Myriad Manifestations, Pei Xuanjing had managed to guess this event, then Zhao Baiyang and the others had absolutely no knowledge about it.
So, when Xue Hanyi appeared and brought up the powerful Xue ancient country, Zhai Baiyang and the others were taken aback.
Following their engagement, the terrifying strength Xue Hanyi demonstrated—even though he was merely a vanguard in the Xue ancient country—caused Zhao Baiyang and the others to fear these ancient powers.
Some even felt a bit bleak, feeling the path forward to be tough. After all, if these powers were so formidable, whatever they were fighting for at the moment would still be out of their reach. They would still be looted once those people returned.
However, when Pei Xuanjing took action and once again demonstrated astonishing power, it completely overturned their understanding.
Pei Xuanjing defeated the pair effortlessly in such an unsophisticated manner, so cleanly, with just two moves—it was even simpler than when he fought against them.
