“The reason why Ultimate Supreme Being Palace is a valuable place for practicing sword arts is because it has a treasure!” Ling Chang said.

“What treasure?” Su Mo asked curiously.

“Holy Sword Mountain!” Ling Chang replied.

“Holy Sword Mountain?” Su Mo was surprised. What treasure was the mountain?

“Holy Sword Mountain was formed from the Ultimate Holy Sword that Ultimate Sword Honorable left behind. It is filled with sword radiance and is a treasure for cultivating sword arts. If you enter the mountain and comprehend the will of Ultimate Holy Sword, it will be beneficial to you.” Ling Chang told Su Mo.

“I see!” Su Mo exclaimed in realization.

.

“Once Supreme Being Zi Xiao returns, we can seek his help in reviving Senior Qian Xunyue!” Ling Chang said.

“Alright!” Su Mo nodded without hesitation. He had no reservation in this matter.

After all, he could only wait for Supreme Being Zi Xiao to come back.

Ling Chang fell silent for a moment before she asked, “Does Di Yihun know that you are in Deity Plane?”

“He knows and is probably finding me now!” Su Mo sighed. If it weren’t for Di Yihun, his life wouldn’t be so difficult.

“Then stay at Ultimate Supreme Being Palace! This place is safe and I will help you erase all traces of yourself!” Ling Chang suggested.

Su Mo had the best protection in Ultimate Supreme Being Palace as Ling Chang had the power to protect him.

Su Mo nodded. It was true that staying at Ultimate Supreme Being Palace would be safest for him.

He had sufficient resources and only needed a safe place in which to advance his cultivation rank.

He would head to Spatiotemporal City another time. It was a risky place that Di Yihun would check.

“You will need to change your appearance and name!” Ling Chang said.

“That is easy!” Su Mo smiled lightly before he used the Heaven Illusionary Pill.

Before Ling Chang’s eyes, Su Mo’s face changed and he became a skinny, long-faced young man.

“You actually have such a strong illusionary technique!” Ling Chang exclaimed in shock. No wonder Su Mo was still safe, Ling Chang couldn’t even see through his disguise.

“From now on, I will be called Qin Yun!” Su Mo revealed.

“Mm, you will be a disciple of Ling Chang Sword Palace of Ultimate Sword Domain.” Ling Chang nodded with finality. After that, she informed Su Mo of a few rules of Ultimate Supreme Being Palace before she arranged things for Su Mo.

…

Su Mo sat down alone in an ordinary-looking yard. Ling Chang had made arrangements for him to live there. He wasn’t treated specially and was just like any ordinary disciple.

“Holy Sword Mountain!”

Su Mo muttered to himself. It was a valuable place. Since he was an official disciple of Ultimate Supreme Being Palace, he would not miss out on this chance.

A few moments later, Su Mo stood up and left the palace.

Ling Chang Sword Palace wasn’t considered large and as Su Mo walked on the lonely streets, he would occasionally pass by a few other disciples.

It was not until he reached a large hall that he saw a large group of disciples streaming in from everywhere.

A tall, door-like structure greeted him as Su Mo walked into the palace. Bright light shone from the door frame structure and streams of disciples walked in and out of it.

Without hesitation, Su Mo walked into the light gate.

In an instant, the stars around him changed and his eyes refocused to reveal a new scene.

It was a vast sky and there was a white plain in front of him. Numerous sword shadows would fly across the Empty Space and a deep Sword Force filled the area.

Standing in this spot made Su Mo feel like he was in the inner metal of a sword as a deep Sword Force penetrated his heart.

“Is this the inside of Holy Sword Mountain?” Su Mo muttered to himself as his eyes scanned his surroundings. He found more than a few thousand people there.

These men were dispersed to all corners of the area. Some sat cross-legged, while others were practicing sword moves. All of them were focused on their own cultivation.

The techniques of those practicing the sword was strong and numerous booming sounds would shake the sky.

Without delay, Su Mo’s body flashed and he flew to a corner.

The space was big and even after flying for a few moments, Su Mo couldn’t see the edge of the world.

However, Su Mo no longer saw anyone around him and he secured a secluded spot.

With that, Su Mo sat down cross-legged and sensed the strong sword force around him.

As he closed his eyes and calmed himself down, Su Mo felt himself being surrounded by a thousand swords.

At this instant, his heart suddenly started beating faster and a dim light seemed to glow from his heart.

This was the Sword Heart that Su Mo had obtained when he devoured Sword Saint Tianxin. Although nothing drastic happened, the Sword Heart was being useful then.

“Sword Art… Ultimate Sword Art…!” Su Mo’s voice grew low as he focused his mind and carefully comprehended the sword senses he was feeling.

From what he felt, a few thousand sword shadows around him. Each of them were special and the auras from them differed.

According to Ling Chang, the Ultimate Sword Art harbored a strong Sword Art.

Even the strongest and most advanced sword saints could not fully comprehend the Ultimate Sword Art. They only managed to master a portion of it.

Su Mo didn’t want to comprehend the Ultimate Sword Art, he only wanted to find a Sword Art that was unique for him.

That was because Su Mo felt that only the most suitable Sword Art for himself would be the strongest sword way.

Time ticked by and Su Mo seemed to become a statue as he absorbed himself in comprehension.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed.

The more he felt the Sword sense in the area, Su Mo developed a greater understanding of Sword Art.

Among the senses in the atmosphere were destructive, cold, sharp and even warm sword senses.

“Could it be that Ultimate Sword Art encompasses all senses? Or did it merge with all other Laws?”

Su mo muttered to himself. He felt as though Ultimate Sword Art connected to everything in the world.

However, that didn’t seem right either. No person would be able to complete everything and comprehend all Laws!

This was impossible. Even someone who was a hundred times more talented than him would not have been able to accomplish such a feat.

Then, how did Ultimate Sword Honorable accomplish the Ultimate Sword Art?

“That’s not right. It must be will, a will that comes from his heart!”

A flash of light crossed Su Mo’s eyes. This was not an element nor law, but a will that originated from one’s heart.

If the will was warm, the sword in the hand would be warmth. If the will was cold wind, the sword would be cold wind.

Su Mo’s head spun and he seemed to grasp some understanding. However, he still had many questions.

The most important question was how he could link the will in his heart to his sword moves.

Su Mo tried to form a will in his heart as he struck a move forward. However, nothing changed with his move.

A long while later, Su Mo still could not find the key point of the will and he found himself at a roadblock.

“Forget it, Ultimate Sword Art is not everything. I should try to make something for myself!”

Su Mo sighed as he muttered, “Devouring… war…!”

He wanted to use the power of his two Primordial Spirits to create a customized Sword Art for himself.

This would be much easier than comprehending the Ultimate Sword Art even though he would need much more time.

Su Mo pondered deeply as he went through the blueprints of sword arts to create a Sword Art for himself.

Time flew by and one day, Su Mo’s eyes snapped open all of a sudden.

Shoosh!

He pointed a finger out towards the Empty Space.

In an instant, a sharp ray of Chaotic Sword Qi shot out.

Su Mo’s eyes bulged wide-open as he stared intently at the Sword Qi that dissipated from his finger.

He could clearly feel that as the Sword Qi struck out, it devoured the strength of the Empty Space, Origin Energy and natural energy.

Once the Sword Qi had reached a good distance, its strength became roughly twice of what it was when Su Mo shot it out.

“As expected!” Su Mo grinned brightly. His Devouring Sword Art had materialized.

This was a good beginning and Su Mo intended to perfect the Devouring Sword Art and incorporate the Invincible War power into it.

Su Mo smiled happily as he shut his eyes again and began his comprehension.

However, a short while later, a light voice rang in his head.

“Su Mo, it has been two years, Supreme Being Zi Xiao has returned.”
