Ji Shen’s voice echoed through the endless silence of space.
Ji Shen: “In our Andromeda Galaxy, there was once a man who single-handedly dominated multiple galaxies and planets. His power was so terrifying that hundreds of millions of cultivators across three massive galaxies trembled at the mere mention of his name. Even today, he is remembered as the greatest warrior of ancient times.”
Lan Hai looked at him in awe.
Lan Hai: “Master… if he was that powerful, is he still alive?”
Ji Shen let out a long, heavy sigh.
Ji Shen: “No. This happened hundreds of thousands of years ago. He sacrificed his life to protect those galaxies.”
Lan Hai fell silent for a moment.
A man who ruled three galaxies… someone with such unimaginable power…
Who could possibly kill a person like that?
Unable to hold back his curiosity, he asked,
Lan Hai: “Master… how could anyone even kill someone that powerful?”
Ji Shen’s expression turned serious.
Ji Shen: “Lan Hai, when a lion is wounded, even wolves gather in packs to attack it. But even then, those wolves cannot truly kill the lion.”
He paused for a moment before continuing.
Ji Shen: “If there is anyone in this world who can truly destroy a powerhouse, it is someone close to them. It doesn’t have to be blood family. It could be your closest friend, your wife… or even your own children.”
His gaze became unusually sharp.
Ji Shen: “On the path of cultivation, only the strong truly rule. You never know whose pride you might offend… or when someone you trust will stab you in the back.”
Lan Hai slowly clenched his fists.
Lan Hai: “Then… how was the Sword God killed?”
Ji Shen looked into the endless stars before speaking.
Ji Shen: “According to the ancient records, killing Ruo Tian was practically impossible. But his most trusted friend betrayed him. He revealed Ruo Tian’s exact location to the Demon Galaxies of Tier 1 and Tier 2.”
His voice grew colder.
Ji Shen: “Countless demons surrounded him from every direction. Their goal was simple…”
He paused for a brief moment.
Ji Shen: “To kill Ruo Tian… and steal his Heavenly Treasures.”
Lan Hai was stunned.
Lan Hai: “Heavenly Treasures?”
Ji Shen nodded calmly.
Ji Shen: “Yes. In the cultivation world, there are legendary weapons. Just like Earth has guns, missiles, tanks, and nuclear bombs, our world has Swords, Spears, Halberds, Daggers, Formations, and countless secret Techniques.”
Lan Hai thought for a moment before asking,
Lan Hai: “Then Master, why don’t cultivators simply bring Earth’s advanced weapons into your world?”
A faint smile appeared on Ji Shen’s face.
Ji Shen: “Lan Hai, it’s not that simple. You saw it with your own eyes when that Dragon invaded Earth. Your fighter jets attacked it again and again, yet they couldn’t even scratch its scales.”
He looked at Lan Hai.
Ji Shen: “So do you really believe nuclear weapons could kill high-level Demons or Dragons?”
Lan Hai fell silent.
The answer was obvious.
Ji Shen continued,
Ji Shen: “That is why cultivators rely on different weapons. Our Sword Sect may be the largest sect on the Grand Azure Continent, but that doesn’t mean everyone uses only swords.”
Ji Shen: “Within our sect, you’ll find Sword Cultivators, Formation Masters, Alchemy Masters, Spear Masters, and many others. The same is true across all five Righteous Continents. Every continent has its own Prime Weapon, but no one is limited to using only that weapon.”
Lan Hai nodded thoughtfully.
Ji Shen continued,
Ji Shen: “These weapons are divided into different Tiers, starting from Low Tier all the way to Heaven Tier. Every Tier is further divided into three grades: Low, Mid, and High.”
Ji Shen: “So if someone possesses a Tier 1 weapon, its true strength depends on whether it is Low Grade, Mid Grade, or High Grade.”
Lan Hai’s curiosity only grew stronger.
Lan Hai: “Then… what Tier of weapon did Ruo Tian possess?”
A look of deep respect appeared in Ji Shen’s eyes.
He smiled faintly before answering,
Ji Shen: “Ruo Tian never relied on ordinary weapons…” The source of this chapter is g.com.
He slowly looked toward the endless stars.
Ji Shen: “He possessed Heavenly Treasures.”
A deep look of respect appeared in Ji Shen’s eyes.
He smiled faintly before saying,
Ji Shen: “In my entire life, I have only heard of seven Heavenly Treasures.”
He slowly recited their names.
Ji Shen: “The Star-Shattering Void Sword.”
Ji Shen: “The Nine-Nether Soul-Devouring Sword.”
Ji Shen: “The Heaven-Piercing Dragon Emperor Spear.”
Ji Shen: “The Yin-Yang Desolation Halberd.”
Ji Shen: “The Thunder-Tribulation Emperor Blade.”
Ji Shen: “The Myriad Cosmos Creation Cauldron.”
Ji Shen: “And the Phantom-Tooth Void Dagger.”
He paused for a moment before continuing.
Ji Shen: “Out of these seven Heavenly Treasures… two belonged to Ruo Tian alone.”
His voice carried absolute admiration.
Ji Shen: “Those two treasures placed him far above everyone else. Even without a weapon, Ruo Tian was already invincible. But after obtaining them… he became an unshakable god.”
Lan Hai listened without blinking.
Ji Shen continued,
Ji Shen: “The first treasure was the Star-Shattering Void Sword. It wasn’t forged from ordinary metal. It was created from shattered fragments of space itself, combined with pure Sword Intent.”
Ji Shen: “Whenever Ruo Tian swung that sword, countless falling stars filled the sky. Its blade was so terrifying that it could literally split space into two.”
Lan Hai drew a deep breath.
Ji Shen smiled faintly.
Ji Shen: “But Ruo Tian wasn’t just a Sword Cultivator. He was an absolute genius.”
Ji Shen: “He reached Tier 8 in Alchemy, Tier 7 in Formations, and even pushed his Body Cultivation to Level 10.”
Lan Hai’s eyes widened.
Ji Shen looked at him and said,
Ji Shen: “Do you understand what that means? Even if a Level 12 powerhouse attacked his body with full strength… they wouldn’t be able to leave a single scratch.”
He continued,
Ji Shen: “At every realm, he shattered his own body and rebuilt it from the ground up. Because of that, only another Heavenly Treasure could truly injure him. No ordinary weapon could even touch his body.”
Ji Shen’s expression became even more serious.
Ji Shen: “For his alchemy, he used the Myriad Cosmos Creation Cauldron. It contained its own pocket dimension. Once activated, it could pull enemies inside, melt their bodies, and refine their entire cultivation into high-grade pills.”
Lan Hai stood there in complete shock.
Lan Hai was still trying to process everything he had just heard.
Then Ji Shen revealed something even more unbelievable.
Ji Shen: “The Demons wanted those two Heavenly Treasures so they could bring the entire galaxy to its knees. They attacked Ruo Tian, but the real turning point came when Heaven itself… the very Laws of the Universe… stood against him.”
Lan Hai’s breathing stopped for a moment.
Ji Shen: “Heaven joined hands with the Demons to destroy Ruo Tian.”
Lan Hai’s face instantly turned pale.
Lan Hai: “Heaven itself… joined hands with the Demons?!”
Ji Shen nodded.
Ji Shen: “Yes. Ruo Tian’s power had grown so great that he no longer cared about the rules of Heaven. Whenever an unfair Heavenly Calamity descended upon humans in any of the three galaxies, he would personally stand against Heaven itself to stop it.”
He looked into the endless sea of stars.
Ji Shen: “For example, our galaxy once faced a massive disaster because it was too close to Earth’s Milky Way. Heaven wanted the Milky Way and Andromeda to collide, creating a brand-new galaxy called Milkomeda.”
His expression grew colder.
Ji Shen: “That collision would have wiped out hundreds of millions of innocent lives. Only a handful of powerful cultivators would have survived.”
Lan Hai remained silent.
Ji Shen continued,
Ji Shen: “Ruo Tian couldn’t accept that. He charged straight into Heaven’s core all by himself and slaughtered every Heavenly Elder responsible for that decision.”
A faint smile appeared on Ji Shen’s face.
Ji Shen: “From that day onward…” Enjoying the story?
He slowly looked at Lan Hai.
Ji Shen: “Heaven branded Ruo Tian as a Demon.”
Ji Shen’s voice remained calm, but every word carried deep respect.
Ji Shen: “To Heaven, Ruo Tian was a Demon. But to humans, he was a Savior… and to the Demons, he was their greatest nightmare.”
He paused for a brief moment.
Ji Shen: “Even after Heaven joined forces with the Demons and the Heavenly Angels, they still couldn’t defeat him.”
Lan Hai’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Ji Shen continued,
Ji Shen: “In the end, when Ruo Tian realized he was completely surrounded, he made one final decision.”
His voice grew heavy.
Ji Shen: “He chose to detonate his own body.”
Lan Hai’s breathing became unsteady.
Ji Shen slowly looked toward the endless stars.
Ji Shen: “Those who came to steal his Heavenly Treasures found nothing but death.”
He continued,
Ji Shen: “The self-detonation of a Level 13 cultivator destroyed multiple planets, brought disaster to three galaxies, and unleashed a massive meteor shower across space.”
A fierce spark ignited in Lan Hai’s eyes.
Lan Hai: “Master… Ruo Tian was truly an absolute idol!”
A faint smile appeared on Ji Shen’s face.
Ji Shen: “He certainly was.”
His voice was filled with admiration.
Ji Shen: “Even today… I still admire him deeply.”
Lan Hai took a deep breath.
Lan Hai: “I see…”
Then another question suddenly came to his mind.
Lan Hai: “Master… what happened to those two Heavenly Treasures? Did they disappear along with Ruo Tian?”
Ji Shen slowly shook his head.
Ji Shen: “No one knows for certain. But according to the rumors, after the explosion, both Heavenly Treasures shot through space and entered our Andromeda Galaxy.”
He looked ahead as the Immortal Qiling Chariot continued flying through the endless stars.
Ji Shen: “No one knows which planet they landed on. Because of that, every Demon faction has been searching for them ever since.”
His expression turned serious.
Ji Shen: “They have already searched countless planets. Now… their eyes are set on our Primordial Void Cosmo Planet.”
Lan Hai frowned.
Lan Hai: “So that’s why they’re working together with the evil factions to destroy your continents…”
Ji Shen nodded.
Ji Shen: “Yes. Their true goal is to find those two Heavenly Treasures.”
Lan Hai slowly nodded as everything finally made sense.
Right then, Ji Shen looked ahead and smiled faintly.
Ji Shen: “We will reach my planet in just a few hours.”
A hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.
Ji Shen: “When you step onto its surface… you’ll finally see what a real cultivator looks like.”
Lan Hai looked at him in confusion.
Lan Hai: “What do you mean, Master?”
Ji Shen simply smiled without answering.
A mysterious gleam flashed across his eyes.
Deep inside his mind, he had already prepared a training plan for Lan Hai…
One that only he—and the Heavens—knew about.
Just how brutal Lan Hai’s training was going to be…
Only time would tell.
