Chapter 4368 The Identity of the Black-Robed Elder: The Human-Powered Will of Heaven and Earth
At first, Qin Haoran thought...
Could this old man in black robes be some mysterious figure, perhaps from a guardian family?
Just like in some worlds, there are also so-called guardian lineages.
They are secretly protecting the world.
They will only appear when the world is in a life-or-death crisis.
But now, after sensing the vast and boundless aura of the world's origin emanating from this black-robed old man...
Qin Haoran then realized that he seemed to have been completely wrong.
He doesn't seem to be a guardian of the Eternal Sword Realm.
It is the Eternal Sword Realm itself!
This is so astonishing, it's hard to believe.
"Senior, you..."
Qin Haoran's face trembled slightly.
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes did not show much surprise.
He simply said, "It seems that it is indeed as I thought."
"You are actually the will of heaven and earth of the Eternal Sword Realm."
Jun Xiaoyao finished speaking.
Wei Nantian, Mo Qingyun, and the others were all shocked.
The old man in black robes looked at Jun Xiaoyao and said, "It seems that your cunning and shrewdness are no less than your swordsmanship."
Jun Xiaoyao smiled calmly.
"I'm just a little curious. As the will of heaven and earth of the Eternal Sword Realm, it should have no human emotions whatsoever."
"The so-called Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs."
"However, you have the thoughts and feelings of a living being."
This is what Jun Xiaoyao is curious about.
The old man in black robes narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Your curiosity is a bit too much."
Jun Xiaoyao said, "Since you have already taken control of the whole situation, how about satisfying our curiosity?"
A smile crept onto the old man's lips.
"What do you think is the origin of this Eternal Sword Realm?"
"Is it related to the Sword Ancestor of the Mortal Realm?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"In fact, the entire Eternal Sword Realm is nothing more than a testing ground for the Sword Ancestor of the Human World."
The old man in black robes revealed a startling truth.
"What?" Qin Haoran's head was buzzing when he heard this.
Is the entire Eternal Sword Realm merely a testing ground for that human sword ancestor?
Wei Nantian and the others were also shocked, never expecting that the Eternal Sword Realm had such a background.
"For any being who has reached the highest level, if they want to go further, they need to find another way."
"Or rather, to look for all possible methods."
"For the Sword Ancestor of the Human World, his idea was to create and cultivate a peak sword civilization."
The old man in black robes' words were once again shocking.
Even Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed.
He sighed inwardly, truly deserving of the title of the ancestor of swordsmen among men.
He actually wanted to create a pure sword-based civilization.
This is absolutely a grand plan, a truly ambitious undertaking, something that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to dream of.
However, Jun Xiaoyao then thought of the Sword Clan, one of the Ten Hegemon Clans of Cangmang.
It was gradually established under the call of the Human Sword Ancestor.
Perhaps the Sword Ancestor of the Human Realm has always had this idea.
"And this Eternal Sword Realm is the starting point, or rather the seed, for the human sword ancestor to propagate the sword dao civilization."
"But alas, too many things happened afterward..." the old man in black robes sighed.
Jun Xiaoyao understood.
It must be something like the invasion of the Dark Realm or the Great Calamity of the Vast Expanse.
This made it difficult for the Human Sword Ancestor to attend to the development of the Eternal Sword Realm.
"However, the Human Sword Ancestor left his Human Sword Embryo in the Eternal Sword Realm."
"I want to leave it to someone destined to inherit it in the future."
"However, after countless years, that destined person never appeared."
"so……"
The old man in black robes paused slightly as he spoke.
Jun Xiaoyao added.
"Therefore, in the long years to come."
"Originally, it was the indifferent and emotionless will of heaven and earth that controlled the operation of the rules of the eternal sword realm."
"But at some point, human-like emotions began to emerge."
"I wonder if my guess is correct?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
The old man in black robes said calmly.
"From the moment my will was born, its purpose has been to do its best for the evolution and development of the entire Eternal Sword Realm."
"But, far too long has passed, and I still haven't found that destined person."
"Within the Eternal Sword Realm, there is no one who is qualified to receive the inheritance of the Human Sword Ancestor."
"Then, I suddenly had an idea: why can't I receive the inheritance?"
"Since I am the will of heaven and earth of the Eternal Sword Realm, then I am the one who is most qualified to receive it."
"But because I am not human, I am not entitled to receive it, and can only wait hopelessly through endless years..."
As he said this, a touch of humanity appeared on the old man's face.
That was a feeling of resentment.
He was clearly the one who understood the human sword ancestor the most.
As the will of the Eternal Sword Realm, his understanding of the sword path is unmatched by those sword cultivators.
But he could only ever be a watchman behind the scenes.
This left him feeling resentful.
"So, all those powerful sword cultivators who perished in the outer sword tombs were your doing?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
Previously at the Sword Tomb, he saw many sword cultivators who had perished there, and their endless resentment gave birth to an indestructible divine will.
He sensed something was wrong then.
The legacy of the Human Sword Ancestor should not be like this.
Now the truth is out, and it turns out that all of this was the work of the old man in black robes.
The old man in black robes had an eerie calm on his face, which concealed a faint chill.
"I originally thought I could find a suitable body."
"But they were all too weak."
"Although the Eternal Sword Realm has been around for quite some time, it is still far from comparable to other ancient universes."
"Compared to those primordial universes, the Eternal Sword Realm is not even a fledgling, but merely a seed, a speck of dust."
"Therefore, the only way to find a suitable candidate is to look outside the system."
Hearing these words from the old man in black robes
Qin Haoran, who was already shocked, showed an even greater disbelief.
"So, the reason why the Eternal Sword Realm was discovered by cultivators from beyond the realm is actually because of you..."
Qin Haoran trembled as he spoke.
"That's natural, because I sensed the aura of the Human Sword Mark on your bodies."
"I just realized that there might be a suitable candidate among you."
The old man in black robes looked at Jun Xiaoyao, Ye Guchen, and Wei Nantian.
It was because they came to Taiyao Tianhe.
The Taiyao Heavenly River and the Eternal Sword Realm were once connected in the distant past.
That's why the old man in black robes was able to sense the aura of the Human Sword Seal that Ye Guchen, Wei Nantian, and the others possessed.
That is why the old man in black robes made the entrance to the Eternal Sword Realm reappear.
Then, the Taiyao Tianhe side became aware of this and began their invasion.
"So, all of this is because of you."
"If you hadn't made the entrance to the Eternal Sword Realm appear, those cultivators from beyond the realm wouldn't have discovered it and thus wouldn't have been able to invade."
"The root of the so-called war between the two realms lies with you!"
Qin Haoran's voice trembled, his gaze fixed on the old man in black robes.
This brutal and devastating war between the two realms was all part of the scheme and calculation of this black-robed elder! (End of Chapter)
