*Grit*

Sea King Modu gritted his teeth.

\'I thought it was strange but now I know why. This blood essence is merely a projection I created for this clone, but when it was damaged I even sense that it had reached the real blood essence that was with my original body in seclusion. Even my original body\'s soul was injured somewhat. It\'s because his Sword Spirit was formed from his soul, it must have gained the ability to attack my original blood essence and soul through the soul connection I have with this clone, bastard.\'

"If you think I turned my soul into a Sword Spirit then you\'re wrong."

As Shi Chun said that, he lifted his hand, and a formless sword made of golden energy formed in his palm.

"It only started to become like this after I began learning sword techniques."

Shi Chun looked at the Sword Spirit in his hand with a complicated expression.

"I went against father and trained in the sword, but it was only then I realize why he was so against it. Maybe he instinctively knew what would happen. As my understanding of the Sword Dao increased, my soul would slowly start to transform into a Sword Spirit, but as if it wasn\'t mine it would then start to absorb my comprehension and cultivation."

Sea King Modu hearing such a phenomenon was shocked. However, his eyes narrowed.

"You\'re a comprehension cauldron."

"Yes."

Came Shi Chun\'s immediate reply.

"I don\'t know what kind of existence am I being used to increase the strength of, but for my cultivation to reach the Soul Transformation Realm and I still have no way to reverse this process could only mean his cultivation is unfathomable. It could have even reached the legendary Heavenly Palace Realm."

Sea King Modu hearing this had his heart began to beat rapidly. Wasn\'t that very cultivation realm he was seeking? He wanted such strength; that could allow him to decide the fate of a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator from who knows how far away.

If he did, would he be scared of anyone if he succeeded in getting his hands on those precious nutrients? Even if he ultimately failed to reach such a realm, just having a fraction of that strength could allow him to bring all the Sea Beasts in the four Continents\' Oceans together and enslave the four Continents.

But the only thing standing in his way of that was Shi Chun.

Raising his head from his Sword Spirit in his hand, Shi Chun\'s face was cold as he stared at Sea King Modu.

"I might be consumed because of this Sword Spirit, but I\'ll use it to take you with me."

"Bastard!"

Sea King Modu cursed as Shi Chun raised his sword above his head. The void trembled and started to crack from the energy the sword released.

Without any hesitation, Shi Chun brought down the sword.

This was an accumulation of all his sword comprehension and cultivation over his long life. It was absolutely terrifying.

Seas King Modu\'s face paled as his entire vision was filled with this golden sword.

"No, if this hits me the damage my original body and blood essence would sustain would be too great to imagine. Not even those nutrients would benefit me as much anymore."

Sea King Modu\'s red eyes bulged open and he threw all cautioned to the wind. He didn\'t care to hide it anymore.

"YOU BASTARD!!"

Sea King Modu bellowed as his aura exploded. At the same time, the purple blood essence on his forehead began to release a blinding light.

Shi Chun\'s heart shook, and his suspicions were actually confirmed. He could sense the aura of the Leviathan Race from Sea King Modu, he was after Teng Ye\'s for his purer bloodline. Not only that but since he\'s after Fang Chen\'s own if he managed to absorb it he might be strong enough to threaten their four borders. And after getting Teng Ye\'s own he\'d be unstoppable.

\'I can\'t let this clone get to the ship, I have to destroy it here and then somehow find a way to tell elder brother of his plans.\'

This was what Shi Chun thought, but it was obvious he didn\'t realize something.

He only saw Fang Chen and Jun as the important ones on the ship, but more so Fang Chen since he had a connection with Teng Ye. However, he didn\'t know the sheer magnitude of the real disaster if Sea King Modu\'s clone were to survive and catch up to the ship.

Shi Chun watched as Sea King Modu\'s aura transformed into a projection of a Leviathan that was overwhelmingly larger than Teng Ye\'s own.

The Leviathan then let out a loud roar that caused the void and Shi Chun\'s sword attack to tremble. Its cold eyes then landed on the incoming attack before it charged forwards.

BOOOOOM!!!!

The clash that occurred caused the void to shatter like glass and the formation surrounding them to slowly fall apart. The bit of support the formation gave by suppressing Sea King Modu was gone.

"No, I\'m not strong enough."

Shi Chun realized Sea King Modu\'s attack was overwhelming him.

"I need more power."

Shi Chun was resisting the absorption of the Sword Spirit, but he fully gave in to it. As a result, the Sword Spirit aura rose to a new level and its luster became even brighter.

This was technically Shi Chun\'s soul, it getting stronger should be a good thing but instead, Shi Chun could feel that he was slowly dying. His soul was being taken over by someone else and as it absorbed his cultivation and comprehension, this will no longer be his soul but someone else\'s Sword Spirit.

"Fine, you can have my cultivation and comprehension. You can even have my life! But in exchange, I\'ll take my compensation by using your Sword Spirit to protect my home. That\'s all I wish for."

The Sword Spirit\'s aura reached its zenith and Sea King Modu could no longer fight against it. The Leviathan he summoned from his blood essence was split in half and a golden arc filled his entire vision.

"NOOOO!!"

He bellowed out and tried to retreat, but the Sword Spirit\'s attack was too terrifying. It directly split his body in two similar to the Leviathan.

The golden arc from the Sword Spirit was so horrifying that it didn\'t stop and instead went on to split the clouds in the sky and the sea below.

Some distance away, Shi Lei Hu who was flying towards this direction paused and shudder as he felt the terrifying sword energy.

"This-This is little brother\'s…"

Shi Lei Hu\'s face pale.

"No no no! You idiot! I told you not to use that power!"

Shi Lei Hu\'s figure shot forward, he was at his top speed as he broke the sound barrier. He would even teleport at times but he felt that he was still too slow.

Without any hesitation, he started to burn his life essence to increase his speed.

Shi Lei Hu wasn\'t the only one that felt the sword energy though.

A few existences from the four continents, that reached the zenith of the Soul Transformation Realm, and those in the Quasi Heavenly Palace Realm had felt this sword energy.

On the Maple Continent that was closer, it was Lu Xue Wen and Dongmei in the Celestial Academy. Along with Li Shu in the Li Imperial Palace, and strangely enough, Ghuanyu had also felt it clearly.

On the Star Bound Continent that was a bit further away, a middle age man in a cave open his eyes and looked in the direction of where he felt the sword energy.

Over the Ocean on the path from the Fire Bound Continent to the Star Bound Continent, there was a Mercenary Association carrier ship moving at high speeds. In one of the rooms on a floor that was entirely deserted, Monarch Gu opened his eyes and looked to his left with a frown.

A similar situation to this occurred. A Mercenary Association carrier ship was on the path from the Water Bound Continent to the Star Bound Continent, and a woman with a veil covering her face was inside a room. A few disciples in blue robes were around her listing as she told her cultivation insights, but she suddenly stopped speaking to their confusion and turned her head to the side. She too sensed the sword energy.

It wasn\'t because these people were strong enough to be able to sense a sword energy from so far out at Sea, but because this sword energy held the faint hint of a mysterious power.

A power that they recognize to belong exclusively to the Realm beyond the Soul Transformation Realm.

The Heavenly Palace Realm.

At the place that grabbed these existences gazes, Shi Chun could be seen floating in mid-air with the Sword Spirit hovering over his head. Streams of energy were being siphoned out of his body and into the sword.

"N-No…"

Shi Chun tried to say as he resisted this absorption.

"Kukuku!!"

A burst of laughter echoed out from some distance away. The aftermath of the explosion was already fading away and Sea King Modu\'s figure could be seen.

His body which was split in two slowly came back together with the help of the drop of blood essence that looked significantly more dimmer.

"Any longer and that attack would have destroyed my clone, kukuku!!"

Sea King Modu couldn\'t help but laugh after escaping relatively unscathed from that attack.
