Chapter 305: Training

The scene of the world being torn apart unfolded before Meng Chuan, leaving him utterly stunned.Meng Chuan had imagined the birth of a world.But he had never actually witnessed it. How ridiculous his imagination seemed now!

"What immense power!" Meng Chuan watched as 'purple lightning' struck down from the endless darkness. The brilliant, coiling purple lightning tore through the gloom, giving birth to black and white currents, and generating various colorful forces that formed the world's membrane.This lightning was the power of creation.It could create worlds, and it could destroy them.Its might... Meng Chuan felt his heart tremble. He could faintly sense that even a single tendril of that purple lightning in the darkness could probably strike him to dust.

"Everyone says lightning is fast, but its power can be incredibly immense and soul-shaking," Meng Chuan murmured to himself. "The Heart Intention Saber Style is considered the world's finest draw technique, the fastest saber art. But it only achieves 'speed.' Before this world-creating lightning... the Heart Intention Saber Style appears naive and weak."

"Extreme speed, extreme dominance, world-destroying, unrestrained," Meng Chuan observed.He was primarily a master of painting, and only secondarily a saber expert.In his eyes, this purple lightning was truly awe-inspiring and incredibly beautiful. 'Speed' was merely one aspect of its beauty.

"The Thunder World-Ending Fiendbody excels only in speed. In terms of raw power and destructive capability, it's quite ordinary." At this moment, Meng Chuan realized the shortcomings of both the Thunder World-Ending Fiendbody and the Heart Intention Saber Style.Only after seeing the vast ocean does one truly grasp the narrowness of a river.Because he had witnessed this...His horizons had truly broadened, and he finally had a direction!

At that moment, Meng Chuan felt immense gratitude towards his master, Venerable Qin Wu, and to the Venerables of Yuanchu Mountain. They had granted him one of the three spots for Marquis Godfiends to be brought by King Zhenwu and King Anhai, allowing him to come to the World Gap and witness this scene.

"The birth of a world contains endless mysteries; comprehending even a small part of it can lead to the Creation realm," King Zhenwu stated. "This is a rare opportunity, the first time in the history of the human world that a world rift has appeared. You are likely the first Marquis Godfiends in human history to witness a World Gap."

Meng Chuan, Xue Feng, and Yan Chitong were all awestruck by the scene before them, each seeing aspects that resonated with their own cultivation paths.Hearing King Zhenwu's words, they secretly felt fortunate.Indeed.They truly were the first Marquis Godfiends in human history to witness a World Gap.

"Even Creation Venerables must search the River of Spacetime, and even there, they might not find a 'World Gap' in its formative stages," King Zhenwu explained. "Creation Venerables might not see one in their entire lives, yet you have the chance to. Seize this opportunity. This place is ideal for cultivation. We will stay here for a year, and then we will send you back."

Meng Chuan, Xue Feng, and Yan Chitong all nodded."Cultivate well, and don't disturb others," King Anhai said indifferently, then resumed observing the scene of the world's birth with keen attention.

Meng Chuan and the others were all eager, gazing mesmerized at the astonishing scene before them."My saber art is still not ruthless enough, not decisive enough, and thus... not fast enough!" Meng Chuan watched the dazzling purple lightning in the endless darkness. After a tree-like bolt of purple lightning struck down, new bolts continuously emerged, tearing through the gloom again and again. The 'ruthlessness' with which it ripped apart the darkness startled Meng Chuan.This was utter decisiveness, unbridled destruction.Yet, the result was the birth of a world. Destruction and creation were, at this moment, two sides of the same coin.

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.*Meng Chuan repeatedly practiced his draw technique, striving for the unrestrained decisiveness he perceived within the world-creating lightning.Saber strike after saber strike.The Heart Saber Style, also known as the Heart Intention Draw Style, incorporated yin and yang. However, at this moment, the presence of 'yin and yang' served only one purpose: to make the strike faster! More ruthless! More decisive! Just like the purple lightning that tore through the darkness.

"How can yin and yang combine with such ruthlessness?"Meng Chuan wanted to unleash that strike, but he felt somewhat confused.He had seen the surface of the world-creating lightning, but its true essence required his deeper comprehension. The world-creating lightning had merely shown him the existence of this power, giving him a direction.

Meng Chuan, Yan Chitong, and Xue Feng were all engrossed in the various forces of creation, each finding their own direction and diligently cultivating.King Zhenwu and King Anhai were also cultivating.

"Though my body has aged, if the 'yin and yang' I cultivate can advance further, reversing yin and yang would significantly boost my vitality. With an aged body, there's a 30% hope of breaking through to the 'Creation realm'; if I cultivate to perfection, I could even revert to youth, with a 100% certainty of achieving the Creation realm." King Zhenwu's eyes held longing, and he knew how difficult this path was.His current cultivation level was no less than that of a Creation Venerable. At over three hundred years old, he had little time left for cultivation.To cultivate to the point of 'reverting to youth'?King Zhenwu had initially felt there was no hope, but now, gazing at the scene of the world's birth, he felt there was still a sliver of hope worth striving for!

"Human profound arts are rudimentary, and even the demon race's Emperor-level profound arts have their flaws," King Anhai observed, his eyes narrowed as he gazed covetously at the scene of the world's birth. "This is true creation! The power of opening heaven and earth! Only by possessing such power can my sword truly be worthy of the words 'Heavenly Tribulation'."

The two King Godfiends and three Marquis Godfiends present were all absorbed in their cultivation.Time flowed by, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye.

*Boom.*A distant explosion echoed, creating spatial ripples that reached Meng Chuan and the other four, drawing their attention."Hm?" Meng Chuan looked into the distance.At the point where the world was torn apart and met the darkness, a massive explosion occurred!Purple lightning, a hundred times more violent and vast than usual, struck there, causing over a dozen streaks of starlight to shoot out, flying towards the World Gap's ground. The foremost streak of starlight was especially dazzling and brilliant, gathering the power of heaven and earth into a long, colorful ribbon that trailed across the sky.

"A treasure!" King Zhenwu and King Anhai's eyes lit up."Let's go."King Zhenwu unleashed his domain, enveloping the three Marquis Godfiends, while King Anhai charged ahead.When seizing treasures, they had to keep Meng Chuan and the others with them. Otherwise, if they separated... and encountered Fifth-Heaven demon monarchs, the three of them would likely be killed swiftly.Yuanchu Mountain had already given instructions: seizing treasures was important, but the safety of Meng Chuan, Xue Feng, and Yan Chitong was also paramount. These three were Yuanchu Mountain's most valued talents in recent decades.

*Whoosh.*As they flew at high speed, Meng Chuan also carefully watched the dozen streaks of starlight in the distance, especially the massive one at the forefront."Be careful, there are demons," King Zhenwu's voice suddenly rang out. "They've also been drawn here by the treasure.""Demons?" Meng Chuan, Yan Chitong, and Xue Feng all tensed. This was the first time they had encountered demons in the World Gap, after more than a month of being there.
