Chapter 2695: The Other Side of the Sea!

"Fifteen hundred zhang—that should be his limit!" the Black Flood Dragon King said, looking at Ye Yuan with certainty.

Because he could see that Ye Yuan was already struggling immensely.

He could barely advance any further.

This was his bottleneck!

Indeed, the sword intent at fifteen hundred zhang had reached Ye Yuan's utmost limit.

But at this moment, Ye Yuan was completely unaware.

The wounds on his body grew more numerous, yet he seemed not to feel them.

At this moment, Ye Yuan was extremely exhilarated.

Countering each move as it came, he now felt as if he were sparring with Zhuo Bufan.

Deflecting the other's sword intent had become his pleasure.

Even he himself did not realize that he had entered a state of epiphany.

Over the past year or so, although Ye Yuan's cultivation had broken through to the Boundless Heaven Tier, his sword dao laws had not advanced.

The power of laws becomes increasingly difficult to comprehend as one progresses.

Often in the later stages, the comprehension of laws lags severely behind cultivation level.

By then, one's potential is exhausted.

Even making a small breakthrough in cultivation becomes extremely difficult.

But now, his sword dao laws were on the verge of bursting forth, about to reach the third layer!

Under the immense external pressure, Ye Yuan's sword dao laws grew ever more rounded and unimpeded.

Boom!

Suddenly, his sword dao laws, like floodwaters bursting a dam, surged forth violently.

Sword dao laws, third layer!

However, the sword dao laws Ye Yuan comprehended were different from Zhuo Bufan's.

The sword is a great dao, encompassing all phenomena!

Zhuo Bufan's sword was supremely domineering, pursuing ultimate power.

His sword was pure to the extreme.

This sword, which had cast aside everything, advanced without hesitation.

Slay gods when they block, slay Buddhas when they block!

What Ye Yuan comprehended was the profound meaning of Qiankun!

Using the sword to evolve Qiankun.

One sword, one world!

Zhuo Bufan's sword, though seemingly overwhelmingly strong, had its flaws.

Once he encountered someone truly powerful, this extreme power of his could easily be broken.

This is what is meant by 'what is too rigid is easily broken.'

Ye Yuan's sword dao laws might not be as strong in power, but they excelled in being continuous and unending.

Which was stronger and which weaker was hard to say.

The subtlety of application lies in the mind.

Just like now, once Ye Yuan's floodgate opened, it was unstoppable.

The sword qi at fifteen hundred zhang could no longer block him!

Whoosh!

His figure moved again, swiftly heading toward the gap between the two islands.

The Black Flood Dragon King was dumbfounded at the sight.

"This guy... he actually comprehended!"

"This kid has astonishing comprehension! And formidable willpower!"

Almost simultaneously, the Black Flood Dragon King and Mitian exclaimed in admiration.

Enlightening the dao between life and death—easy to say, but as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Since it was between life and death, one misstep meant death and the end of the dao.

Moreover, those who could return from that extreme state were extremely rare!

This method of breakthrough could work occasionally, but trying it too often would inevitably lead to death.

Yet for Ye Yuan, it had become almost routine.

Suddenly, Ye Yuan's speed soared, and he quickly advanced five hundred zhang!

Beyond a thousand zhang was already the limit for the Jade Emperor Heaven.

Even the Black Flood Dragon King, a half-step Saint Emperor Heaven, could at most advance another three hundred zhang.

Ye Yuan's achievement was already astonishing and world-shaking.

But Ye Yuan did not stop.

He continued to advance!

Nine hundred zhang!

Eight hundred zhang!

...

Five hundred zhang!

Three hundred zhang!

One hundred zhang!

Though his speed slowed progressively, Ye Yuan eventually charged to the hundred-zhang mark.

The Black Flood Dragon King's mouth hung open, his face full of disbelief.

Just how terrifying a level had this guy's sword dao laws reached!

Ye Yuan's skin was already split open, blood dripping everywhere.

But he paid it no heed!

He stepped forward, continuing toward the fissure.

The fierce sword qi nearly tore him apart.

Yet he stubbornly held on.

Eighty zhang!

Seventy zhang!

...

Ten zhang!

Nine zhang!

...

One zhang!

Pfft!

Ye Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood, nearly fainting.

He had already reached the entrance of the fissure, but the sword qi inside was too terrifying!

A single step apart, yet as vast as the distance between heaven and earth!

Ye Yuan believed that if he dared take another step forward, he would surely be sliced into mincemeat by countless sword qi!

"Kid, you're already very strong! Between you two, there's a gap of two major realms!" said Mitian.

"Mm, I know!" Ye Yuan nodded.

"You can't go any further. If you do, even I won't be able to save you! The guy who left this sword scar is too strong!" said Mitian.

"Mm, I know!" Ye Yuan nodded again, speaking very calmly.

Seeing that Ye Yuan was retreating, Mitian finally felt relieved.

But the shock in his heart was beyond words.

The Saint Emperor Heaven who left the sword scar was undoubtedly a prodigy of his era!

But the young man before him was no less!

It was just that these two geniuses from different eras had crossed paths here in this manner.

Even he could not judge who was stronger.

However, he did not think Ye Yuan had lost.

On the contrary, Ye Yuan had brought him too many surprises today.

Just then, Ye Yuan's figure retreated rapidly.

Soon, he returned to the Black Flood Dragon King's side, swallowed a heavenly pill, and said calmly, "Do you think he can reach the other side of the sea?"

The Black Flood Dragon King was taken aback, then shook his head. "He is strong, but the Seven Seas are but a corner of the world! Ahead lie countless super-strong experts, and even beings stronger than Saint Emperor Heaven! He cannot reach the other side of the sea."

"No, he definitely can!" As soon as the Black Flood Dragon King finished, Ye Yuan immediately retorted.

The Black Flood Dragon King sneered, "You are not a sea race; you don't know the terror ahead! No matter how strong you humans are, you cannot cross the great sea and reach the other shore!"

Ye Yuan just smiled and said, "Others may not, but he definitely can! Of course, I definitely can too! Perhaps we might meet in the future, who knows! This guy left a mess for me. When I see him, I'll demand an explanation!"

The Black Flood Dragon King was baffled, not knowing where this guy's confidence came from.

Saint Emperor Heaven was indeed the king of the sea, but the sea was too vast; beings stronger than Saint Emperor Heaven still existed!

Such baseless confidence would get one killed!

But he also gathered that Ye Yuan intended to ride the waves and reach the other shore in the future.

"Heh, go ahead, go ahead! I hope you die in the sea!" the Black Flood Dragon King said coldly.

In front of Ye Yuan, he never hid his hatred.

He knew hiding was useless.

Ye Yuan glanced at him and smiled, "I will definitely go! But I have a feeling that girl Jingfei will leave in the future too! The Seven Seas are too small; they cannot contain her!"

Ye Yuan had long noticed that Jingfei's talent far surpassed that of the people of the Seven Seas!

Before meeting him, Mitian had already planned to choose Jingfei to take him home.

But his sudden appearance made Mitian change his mind.

From this, it could be seen that Jingfei's worst future outcome was reaching the True Dragon Realm!
