Chapter 1731 - Chapter 1731 Chapter 751 Ancient Artifacts Sensing Heavenly
Chapter 1731: Chapter 751: Ancient Artifact’s Sensing, Heavenly Destiny Continent Chapter 1731: Chapter 751: Ancient Artifact’s Sensing, Heavenly Destiny Continent “Han Yi, have you achieved the Tao Realm?”
Taiyuan was quite shocked. It hadn’t been even close to ten thousand years, yet Han Yi had already made a breakthrough into the Tao Realm, and moreover, it was the second step, the Daoist Fruit Realm.
It was no wonder he was so astonished; he well remembered that, before his slumber, Han Yi was merely a Golden Immortal. To ascend from Golden Immortal, across Taiyi, Daluo, to breaking through to the Tao Realm, and then cultivate to the Daoist Fruit–that required surmounting four major realms, particularly the vast gulf between Daluo and the Tao Realm, which was unimaginably enormous.
The incarnation of Han Yi smiled faintly and nodded, “As you see, that is indeed the case.”
With a wave of his hand, he drew the Taiyuan Divine Blade from within his internal Tao Domain, making it appear amidst the Chaos.
“Senior Taiyuan, this place is the Eastern Realm of the Fuheng Taoist Area; ahead lies the Tao Traces left by the Transcendent One’s intervention,” explained Han Yi.
The Taiyuan Divine Blade stood upright, the hilt upholding a gray silhouette, which floated out of it to take form and appear within the Chaos.
Han Yi watched attentively; this was the first time he saw Taiyuan manifesting its “consciousness” form; previously, this consciousness had only resided within the Divine Sword, emitting merely a voice.
This silhouette was that of a gray-eyed elderly man in gray robes, who gazed at the vast and endless glow in the distance, his face shaken with a complex expression.
“Transcendence, transcendence!!”
He stared intently for half a minute, before slowly redirecting his gaze to Han Yi, with a solemn expression on his face, as if he had made up his mind, he said, “I hadn’t expected that you would so quickly achieve the Tao Realm, and already the Daoist Fruit Realm, at that. Moreover, there are certain things hidden within you that make my heart tremble. Your combat power is definitely not just at the level of the Daoist Fruit.
“Such strength is also sufficient.”
After a pause, he inquired, “With your current power, you should be able to see that I am not actually the main body of the Heavenly Reverence saber, am I?”
Seeing Han Yi nod, the Taiyuan Divine Blade showed no surprise and continued to speak:
“This slumber activated the consciousness hidden within this blade fully, and with the return of old memories, I came to know that although I am Taiyuan, Taiyuan is not me.”
Han Yi understood Taiyuan’s statement, “Although I am Taiyuan, Taiyuan is not me.”
The true Taiyuan Divine Blade should be a Heavenly Reverence Ancient Artifact, and such a mighty ancient artifact must possess a material body, also known as the Divine Sword’s body, besides that, it would need a vast Heavenly Reverence level spiritual nature, and a consciousness to control the sword body and spiritual nature.
Han Yi could see that although this blade was strong, based on its material, it was only a Tao Artifact, and even a mid-tier Tao Artifact at that–far from a Heavenly Reverence Ancient Artifact. Therefore, as he had expected, the Taiyuan residing within this Tao Artifact must be the consciousness from the actual Heavenly Reverence Ancient Artifact, which had become lost and unknown.
Thus, the current Taiyuan was only a part of the complete Taiyuan.
“Back then, before my master left, he extracted me from the sword body and sealed me inside this sword so that I could avoid a certain catastrophe.
“Now, countless eons have passed, and that catastrophe has long ended.”
“And I sense that my sword body is not destroyed but has fallen into a certain region.”
“If you wish, I could guide you to find it.”
“Within the true Taiyuan saber body, there lies the master’s inheritance, the supreme sword skills; should you obtain the sword body, these inheritances and sword skills could all be yours.”
The voice of Taiyuan was not loud, but when it reached Han Yi’s heart, it stirred him greatly.
An actual Heavenly Reverence Ancient Artifact, along with the corresponding Heavenly Venerate inheritance and Sword Dao skills–he could not help but be moved.
In fact, the only items related to Heavenly Reverence level on him were a mere few, one being the Yue Guang Divine Spear. This Divine Reverence Ancient Artifact had both spiritual nature and material body intact; however, the consciousness was not original but newly formed, and because of this, Han Yi had been able to refine it easily, imprinting it with his own Tao Intent and Divine Consciousness.
But the new consciousness meant that the might of this Divine Reverence Ancient Artifact was somewhat diminished.
Besides Yue Guang, he also had some items related to Heavenly Sovereigns or even higher beings, such as the Green Reed Sword, the Ancient Diyu hidden trove, the Chongxuan Stele, and others.
Amongst these, although the Green Reed Sword came from a Heavenly Reverence Ancient Artifact, the Divided Swords he possessed were incomplete; he guessed that other divisions might have fallen into the hands of other Heavenly Sovereigns in the Ancient World–a power he certainly wouldn’t be able to wrest from them in the short term.
He had attempted to delve into the Ancient Diyu’s secrets after ascending to an Infinite High Rank, but he still couldn’t flip to the second page. As for the Chongxuan Stele, linked with the Ashen Mountain, a ruling power of the ancient Taoist domain and not a weapon, it could not directly enhance his power, and he lacked the strength to explore it for the time being.
Hence,
If he could obtain a real sword with both spiritual nature and consciousness intact, given his relationship with predecessor Taiyuan, he would undoubtedly be able to control it easily.
Once he ascended to the level of the Outer Path, or even Harmonization, wielding the Taiyuan Divine Sword wouldn’t necessarily mean he couldn’t battle a Heavenly Sovereign.
