1387 Limitless Sword Domain

"You've heard of this technique?"ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Judging by Kulas' reaction to its name, Tian Yang already knew the answer to his own question even without needing a response from Kulas.

"O-Of course! Anyone who knows even the slightest about Han Zexian would know of the Limitless Sword Domain technique! It's one of his signature moves—a technique he'd used to destroy the infamous Burning Demonic Sect overnight!" Kulas exclaimed.

"If you've really learned that technique, you've struck gold, Ti

—Xiao Yang! Do you think you can show it to me?"

However, Tian Yang showed a bittersweet smile on his face and sighed, "When I told the Seven Divine Sword Peak's Sect Leader that I lacked the capability to use the technique in my current state, I wasn't lying. The best I can do is create four swords and control them like flying swords. It's pathetic when compared to what the stone sword showed me."

"W-What did the stone sword show you?" Kulas asked in a nervous voice.

"A man that covered the sky with hundreds of swords manifested with spiritual energy and commanded each of them simultaneously, as if there is a swordmaster controlling each sword individually." Tian Yang sighed with a look of admiration on his face as he recalled the images he saw during enlightenment.

The man, presumably Han Zexian, conjured hundreds of swords made of pure spiritual energy, infusing them with Sword Aura. When he unleashed them upon his target, it created the illusion of the heavens themselves meting out punishment. It was a grandiose display of unfathomable prowess and talent, something Tian Yang wanted to achieve one day.

"Hey, I have something to tell you." Kulas suddenly said with a serious look on his face.

"What is it?"

"Have you heard of the Ambiguous Hoarder?"

Tian Yang nodded, "He was a mysterious collector several thousand years ago that vanished into thin air, correct?"

"He wasn't just a collector. He had the most expansive and valuable treasury in the world. There's a good chance that Ambiguou Hoarder's true identity is Han Zexian."

"What?!" Tian Yang's eyes widened with surprise.

"No wonder why all sorts of valuable treasures and resources exist in this tomb…"

Kulas nodded and continued, "Now here's what I actually wanted to tell you. The Ambiguous Hoarder was known to have a certain technique meant for Body Refiners such as myself. This technique could grant one a nearly indestructible body and amplify their innate strength immensely. If the Ambiguous Hoarder— Han Zexian left behind something as valuable as the Limitless Sword Domain, I have no doubt he also left behind that technique!"

"You want to learn it, right?" Tian Yang asked.

Kulas nodded with a serious expression and said, "Originally, I only came here to train myself, but this information changed everything. If you don't mind, I would like to spend some time looking for it."

Tian Yang responded with a calm smile on his face, "Of course. Let's focus on your technique for now then."

"Are you sure? What about your journey?" Kulas asked.

"What are you talking about? We're traveling together, so this isn't my journey alone. I have already benefited immensely thus far, and you've been following me this entire time, so it would only be fair for me to follow you now."

"Thank you…" Kulas showed a bright smile.

Tian Yang shifted his gaze to Ren Xia and spoke, "You heard our conversation. Do you know anything about it?"

Ren Xia contemplated for a moment before responding, "If it's related to Body Refiners, it must be a body refining technique. I'm aware of three stone tablets that suggest such a technique."

"Can you show us the way?" Tian Yang asked.

"I'll show you one of them for free, but I'll need some sort of payment for the rest."

"Eh? But you said that you'd show us if we allowed you to follow us." Tian Yang frowned.

"I was only talking to you. Since this is something that directly benefits Kulas, I won't be doing this for free."

Kulas sucked his teeth in an annoyed manner and said, "Fine, I'll pay you if the first one isn't what I want."

Ren Xia showed a beautiful smile and said, "Very well. Follow me. I'll take you to the nearest one first."

A few hours later, they arrived before a massive stone tablet that did not take the shape of any weapons, and just like the stone sword, there were thousands of people studying it.

Kulas clenched his fists with excitement and said, "Give me two — one month. If I cannot comprehend its name by then, we will move on to the next one."

Tian Yang nodded and said, "I will watch your back."

Tian Yang sat right behind Kulas and started cultivating. Due to how fast he advanced his cultivation to the peak of Spirit King, it had yet to fully stabilize. Of course, he didn't fully immerse himself in cultivation, as he still had to protect Kulas even if the chances of someone bothering him were close to zero.

Shortly after Tian Yang settled into his seat, he sensed someone sitting right beside him, and a sweet, flowery scent enveloped his senses.

'How did you two meet?' Ren Xia's voice suddenly resounded inside his head.

As much as he wanted to ignore her, he couldn't ignore that she was the reason he learned Limitless Sword Domain.

'By chance. He found me when I was dying in the Desolate Continent and saved my life.'

'Xiao Yang, isn't it? You're a fascinating individual. The more time I spend by your side, the more I sense that you're truly unique.' Ren Xia wore a charming smile as she gazed at him.

Tian Yang looked at her and asked, 'Why are you so cold to Kulas? He's your fiance, no?'

'Sure, a fiance that was chosen by my family, and neither of us actually want to be with each other. Honestly, our engagement is bound to fail. Kulas ran away from his family because he did not want to be tied down by our engagement, but if he hadn't done so, I would've done it.'

'As for why I mess with him… it's just another means of entertainment. Even though he's always cold towards others and seems unapproachable, many are aware that he's actually a very kind man inside, but that's exactly why we won't ever work out. I am more interested in men who are reckless… someone who is uncontrollable, like that of a wild beast.'

'Is that so?' Tian Yang responded nonchalantly.

Ren Xia narrowed her eyes at him, seemingly in deep thought.
