331: Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body

Di Shenglong's voice resounded like a great bell, exploding once more at the edge of Di Qianjie's collapsing consciousness.

The way of the sword! My sword Dao!

I am Di Qianjie!

My Dao is the sword!

It is the Nothingness that returns to the Origin and gives birth to all things!

That brand of Nothingness Sword Intent, which had transformed within the singularity and was as pure as the primordial void, erupted with unprecedented light at this moment!

It transformed into an invisible and intangible yet real key, actively weaving through, searching, and questioning within this vast ocean of Physique Origin!

It was rejecting!

It rejected those Physique Origins biased toward defense, power, elements, or the Soul!

Those radiant God-Demon Bodies, Astral Bodies, Indestructible Battle Bodies, and Myriad Origin Webs... under the illumination of the Nothingness Sword Intent, though powerful, always possessed a hint of discordance.

They were, after all, manifest forms, the pinnacle of Acquired evolution, rather than the most perfect vessel for that Nothingness Origin which births everything!

The Nothingness Sword Intent traveled rapidly through the vast Origin within the body scripture, carrying all of Di Qianjie's mental will as it sought persistently.

Time lost its meaning here.

Who knows how long passed; perhaps it was an eternity, or perhaps just an instant.

Suddenly!

The movement of the Nothingness Sword Intent came to a sudden halt!

It stopped in an... extremely special area.

This area was not radiant; instead, it appeared somewhat dim.

There was no world-dominating prestige, no profound and mysterious Dao rhythm, only an indescribable... purity and affinity!

The aura permeating this place felt like the most primitive Origin of the Sword!

It was the embryonic state before the first glimmer of sharpness was born in heaven and earth!

It encompassed all attributes of the sword—sharpness, speed, penetration, destruction, protection, agility... yet it transcended them, returning to an undivided state of Chaos.

It was like a piece of unpolished jade, or a perfect sword mold waiting for a divine sword to be cast!

It did not possess great power itself, but it held an unparalleled affinity with the Origin of the Sword Dao!

It was the most perfect vessel, the mother-womb that nurtured all Sword Dao Divine Abilities!

“Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body!”

A name, carrying the ancient Dao sound originating from the body scripture's Origin, thundered throughout Di Qianjie's entire Sea of Consciousness!

At the very moment that name sounded!

Boom—!!!

Inside the Di Divine Palace, that radiant body scripture suddenly withdrew all its phenomena, returning once more to its simple and silent state.

However, an even more terrifying and primordial aura erupted from within Di Qianjie's body!

The blood within him was like hundreds of millions of slumbering peerless divine swords awakening simultaneously, letting out a deafening yet invisible and intangible sword hum!

This sword hum was the sound of transformation originating from the very source of life!

His entire skeleton, meridians, flesh, and even every tiniest particle were undergoing an unprecedented reshaping and sublimation!

Beneath his skin, countless fine, profound runes—as if directly outlined by the Sword Dao Origin of heaven and earth—flickered and were branded into him!

These runes flowed incessantly like living things; with every cycle, his body became more in tune with the Law of the Sword between heaven and earth!

Standing there, he no longer seemed to be a body of flesh and blood, but the prototype of a peerless divine sword that had just emerged from the mother-womb of Chaos, its sword embryo newly formed!

An Innate Sword Intent, pure to the extreme and seemingly capable of triggering a resonance with all swords in the myriad Realms, uncontrollably seeped out of his body!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A sudden change occurred!

Outside the Di Divine Palace, deep within the entire Di Clan Ancestral Land, the swords of all Di Clan Members—regardless of rank or the owner's cultivation level—began to vibrate violently and spontaneously at this moment!

Sword hums rose one after another, converging into a grand and pious sound of pilgrimage!

From common weapons to saint swords, all lowered their tips and tilted slightly toward the Di Divine Palace, as if paying the highest respect to their sovereign!

“Ten Thousand Swords Acknowledging the Ancestor?! Is this... the sign of an Innate Sword Body's birth?!”

Within the Eternal Night Divine Capital, Dan Chenzi, who was currently instructing Di Qingge in Alchemy, suddenly looked up, his face filled with unprecedented shock.

Outside the Di Divine Palace, Great Elder Di Chengyuan, who was handling Family affairs, was suddenly startled.

The Myriad Dao Origin Flow Physique within him circulated on its own, clearly sensing a pure aura that stood above all types of Sword Intent—as if it were the source of the Sword Dao itself—taking shape within the Di Divine Palace!

Inside the Di Divine Palace.

The light of transformation on Di Qianjie's body slowly receded.

He slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes no longer held an abyss-like silent void, but instead possessed an indescribable agility and purity.

Deep within his pupils, two tiny sword shadows condensed from the most primordial Sword Dao Laws seemed to slowly drift.

His entire temperament had undergone an earth-shaking change.

The previous quiet restraint was still there, but beneath it, there was now an Innate spiritual charm that seemed capable of containing all the swords in the heavens and analyzing all Sword Dao Divine Abilities!

He looked down at his hands.

His skin was as lustrous as jade, his bones as tough as divine metal, and his blood flowed with a faint yet clear sound of sword humming.

With a slight thought, a wisp of the most ordinary sword yuan condensed at his fingertip.

This wisp of sword yuan was more concentrated and pure than before, its circulation speed was faster, and its consumption was lower, yet the intent of sharpness contained within had increased several times over!

More importantly, his control over this wisp of sword yuan had reached an unprecedented level of subtlety, as if it were an extension of his own limbs; wherever his thought went, it followed as easily as his own fingers!

He could even clearly perceive the invisible threads of the Law of the Sword permeating the surrounding space.

They were like docile fish, showing him an unprecedented closeness and affinity!

The essentials of sword techniques that previously required bitter comprehension and arduous practice to master were now as clear as the lines on his palm; with a little deduction, he could see through their core mysteries.

An unprecedented sense of clarity filled his entire body, as if all the mist on the path of the Sword Dao had been completely dispelled!

“Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body...” Di Qianjie murmured to himself, his voice carrying a hint of unbelievable shock and wild joy.

He finally understood the terror of this Physique; it did not directly grant world-destroying power, but fundamentally transformed him into the darling of the Sword Dao!

It was the supreme Foundation for cultivating the Sword Dao! It was the perfect vessel for carrying all Sword Dao Divine Abilities and comprehending all Sword Intent Laws!

With it, his Nothingness Sword Intent could truly take root and grow, exerting the true power that originated from the singularity's Origin!

Di Shenglong quietly watched Di Qianjie, whose transformation was complete; deep within his majestic eyes, a hint of genuine satisfaction finally emerged.

He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a depth that pierced through the future:

“The Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body is the supreme immortal body of the Sword Dao. With this body in hand, all swords in the heavens shall be for your use, and all forms of Sword Dao shall be for your mastery. In time, when you have completely awakened the secrets within the Thousand Tribulations Sword, the Twelve Forms of Tribulation Sword, the Jie Tian Three Forms, and even your own Nothingness will eventually be integrated and transformed into your very own... Sword!”

He cast his gaze toward the void outside the Di Divine Palace, which was faintly vibrating due to the Ten Thousand Swords Acknowledging the Ancestor, and spoke with absolute certainty:

“This body shall be the cornerstone of my Di Clan's Sword Dao! In the future, the one who suppresses the heavens with the sword and severs the shackles of the ages shall be none other than you!”

The Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body was the second type of immortal body born after his Eternal God-Demon Body!

Feeling the unprecedented sense of power and harmony flowing within him, and hearing the Clan Chief's words filled with infinite expectation and heavy responsibility, a surge of burning Battle Intent and boundless confidence originating from his Bloodline and Soul erupted!

He knelt on one knee, his head lowered deeply, with the Thousand Tribulations Sword placed horizontally before his knees. It let out a clear and long chime, as if responding to its master's intent and the Clan Chief's expectations:

“Qianjie... will not fail the Clan Chief's expectations! I will not fail the name of the Di Clan! With the sword in my hand, I shall protect my clan's eternal prosperity and cut through all thorns on the path ahead!”

His voice was not loud, but it carried a rock-like firmness and the pure sharpness unique to that nascent Innate Sword Body, echoing for a long time amidst the flowing river of starlight.

Inside the Di Divine Palace, on the surface of that simple body scripture, a tiny mark—as if a sword embryo had just been formed—flashed and then vanished, returning to silence.

And for the future of the Di Clan, a peerless divine sword carrying the Origin of Nothingness and nurtured by the Innate Sword Embryo was already on the verge of being unsheathed!
