Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6290: The Four Great Cultivation Worlds



In fact, he was about the same age as the Tang Emperor, belonging to those who had experienced that era. However, at that time, he was only at the peak of the Innate Realm, and his breakthrough to the Golden Core stage was recent.

On the other hand, Jian Wushuang's appearance was very youthful, looking only a little over twenty, but he had an extraordinary aura, leading people to speculate that it was because he started cultivating early, allowing him to maintain his youthful appearance.

However, Jian Wushuang's aura was very weak, not like that of a great cultivator in the Golden Core stage, whose energy cyclone entered the sea.

Yet, the vision and insights Jian Wushuang had just displayed still greatly impressed Zhu Quan. He thought that if it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't have said so much.

Realizing that Jian Wushuang was truly unfamiliar with the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Quan began to talk about some major events that had occurred in the Tang Dynasty in recent years.

"Senior might be from the Southern Sky Cultivation World and may not know much about the East. It's actually nothing special. This Eastern Cultivation World mainly revolves around three places: one temple, one law, and one tomb!" Zhu Quan began, first talking about the origin of the Tang Dynasty.

He also briefly summarized the current situation of the cultivation world.

It was first divided into four major cultivation worlds.

The Southern Sky World, which consisted of the seven southern countries.

Jian Wushuang actually didn't know about this either. Back in Jiang Country, he hadn't been exposed to the cultivation world.

Then there was the Eastern Land Cultivation World.

Which was the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, in the Human Cultivation World, only the Eastern Land and the Southern Sky World were relatively prosperous.

The other two worlds were different; one was the Northern Glacier, occupied by a group of demonic cultivators known as the Holy Sect. Very few cultivators ventured to the Northern Glacier. It was rumored that ancient demons were sealed there, and the Holy Sect was the legacy left by these ancient demons.

This made Jian Wushuang very curious, but he did not ask about it, planning to learn more in the future when he had time.

He continued to listen.

He initially thought that after the Eastern Land, Southern Sky, and Northern Glacier, the next topic would be about the western side. Unexpectedly, Zhu Quan's conversation took a turn, saying, "Speaking of which, these first three cultivation worlds, regardless of being righteous or demonic, at least have a legacy and an endless stream of cultivators. But this last cultivation world arose because of one person!"

Jian Wushuang was still completely unaware of such a significant event.

Zhu Quan even suspected that Jian Wushuang might have consumed some rare and precious fruit, directly ascending from a mortal to a Golden Core stage cultivator.

If not for Jian Wushuang's earlier display of insight and vision, Zhu Quan would have doubted

it.

But now, he only thought of Jian Wushuang as a diligent cultivator who didn't concern himself with worldly affairs, focusing solely on cultivation.

Jian Wushuang was happy to maintain this impression, speaking about the mountains as if that were his life, further convincing Zhu Quan that he was indeed a reclusive cultivator from deep in the mountains.

He was genuinely surprised by Zhu Quan's words.

Not all of his reaction was feigned, as he was truly curious about who had such great ability, where one person alone could represent an entire cultivation world.

It seemed a bit exaggerated.

In this mundane world, the cultivators were very weak, far from the level of destroying the heavens and the earth.

Zhu Quan saw Jian Wushuang's disbelief and lowered his voice, saying, "That last cultivation realm was once a vast and powerful realm. But because of one person, it became a legend and was completely erased from this world. Since then, that person has claimed to be a realm unto themselves and is now a mysterious figure in the cultivation world, so powerful that they are likely a Grand Cultivator in the Divine Appearance Realm!"

"There are such extraordinary people?" Jian Wushuang nodded in admiration and then asked, "What is their title?"

Zhu Quan replied, "This person doesn't have a formal title; they simply claim to be the Prophet of the cultivation world, predicting the future. They even say that a peerless cultivator will emerge in recent years, breaking the chains of the mortal world and leading the entire cultivation realm to ascend to the Spirit World!"

"The Prophet!"

Jian Wushuang's eyes contracted upon hearing the name, and he felt a deep shock in his heart.

He couldn't forget the figure he had dreamed of before.

It was precisely the figure of the Prophet.

"A coincidence?"

In the past, Jian Wushuang might have believed it was a coincidence, but now he didn't.

Everything probably had a cause and effect.

Moreover, he suspected there were some schemes behind his being trapped in this world.

Let's not forget that he had once split himself into countless bodies to pry open the coffin of the Tomb of the Gods.

To find a path to transcend the Tribulation.

His thoughts wandered for a moment.

Zhu Quan saw his silence and thought he was overwhelmed, so he comforted him, "Senior, don't be too surprised. Many cultivators privately dismiss him. Besides erasing that cultivation realm, he hasn't taken action again, so there's no real evidence of his strength. Maybe we've overestimated him."

"Perhaps," Jian Wushuang nodded quietly.

That's what he said outwardly, but he didn't think so inwardly.

If only it were that simple.

"We've strayed a bit from the topic. Let's talk about the origins of the Great Tang, the Eastern Cultivation Realm. Its story is just as captivating as that of the Prophet!" Zhu Quan spoke eloquently, recounting the splendor and past grudges of the Great Tang in the East.

A thousand years ago, there was no Great Tang in the East.

At that time, the East was the weakest of the four major cultivation realms.

Moreover, the East always believed in Buddhism.

The few cultivators that existed were not skilled in combat and were often bullied by cultivators from other realms while seeking opportunities and treasures.

Later, a remarkable figure emerged.

He was originally a prince of a mortal dynasty, who later married a princess of the Great Tang and came to Tai'an City.

Their union was considered a political marriage between dynasties, but they genuinely loved

each other.

Even though the prince became a consort, he had no complaints and was deeply in love with the princess, a love story of that era.

However, the good times didn't last. A few years after their marriage, the princess suddenlyn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

fell gravely ill. At that time, although the Tang royal family had immortals among them, they couldn't cure the princess.

It was rumored that only by going to the Northern Glacier and seeking the inheritance of ancient immortals could her illness be cured.

But at that time, the cultivators of the East couldn't even defend their territory, let alone venture to the Northern Glacier for opportunities.

Besides, it was just a princess, and the Tang dynasty wasn't willing to risk sending their venerated immortals.

Moreover, because Buddhism was prevalent at the time, everything emphasized destiny.

In essence, they let things take their course.

But the consort couldn't accept this!

To save the princess, he ventured to the Northern Glacier as a mere mortal.

He was gone for decades, and when everyone thought he had perished, he miraculously

returned.

And he had become a Grand Cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

This event shocked the cultivation realm of the East at that time.

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang couldn't help but ask, "And then? Did the consort save the

princess?"

"No," Zhu Quan shook his head.

What followed was a tale of regret.

Even after the consort returned as a hero, he couldn't save the princess.

It seemed that their fates were intertwined, and within a month of the consort's return, the

princess passed away.
