All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

Supporting the weak Chen Su, he hovered in the distant void, his gaze fixed on the two people in the center of the battlefield, his brows furrowed, his eyes filled with solemnity and doubt.

As the battle continued, he gradually realized something was wrong—Jiang Wuchen's attacks, seemingly fierce and incomparable, seemingly condensed the power of the Shattering Realm and the fortune of all realms, were still essentially at the level of the Breaking Realm!

He continued to focus solely on accumulating sword intent and increasing attack damage, still using the sword intent laws from his Breaking Realm days. He slashed, tore, and crushed, each strike carrying a world-destroying power, capable of easily tearing apart space and shattering the world, yet he never truly used the essential power of the Shattering Realm.

The essence of the Shattering Realm is to control one's own ultimate ability, to manipulate the rules of the heavens, to be able to transcend the world and modify local laws, rather than merely increasing power or simply launching an attack like "shattering the world"!

Just like the escape technique that Chen Su controls, no one in the myriad realms can trap or capture him.

Jiang Wuchen was like a brute who wielded a divine weapon but only knew how to use brute force. Despite possessing the realm of Shattering Realm, he could never comprehend its core, nor could he break free from the attack constraints of the Realm Breaking Realm. He had immense power, but could not unleash the true power of the Shattering Realm.

"Something's wrong. Jiang Wuchen's attacks haven't even touched the essence of the Shattering Realm!" Xiaoyaozi's voice was hoarse and grave, his tone full of confusion. "He's clearly already broken through to the Shattering Realm, clearly capable of shattering worlds, so why is he still fighting using the methods of the Breaking Realm? If this continues, he'll be worn down by Li Sinan sooner or later!"

Chen Su weakly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on the battlefield. A hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, mixed with a trace of worry: "He was too hasty. The anger and obsession in his heart clouded his mind, preventing him from calming down and comprehending the true meaning of the Shattered Realm... He was just venting, just using power to cover up his unfamiliarity with the power of the Shattered Realm."

Both of them knew that with Jiang Wuchen's current fighting style, even with the blessing of the myriad realms' fortune, and even with the fiercest sword intent of turning his body into a sword, he would ultimately be unable to defeat Li Sinan—the difference between the first and seventh levels of the Shattering Realm was already vast, not to mention that Jiang Wuchen had not yet truly mastered the power of the Shattering Realm.

Li Sinan, who was in the center of the battlefield, had obviously already noticed this situation.

He remained standing in the void, the dark power of rules surging steadily around him. The pressure of being at the peak of the seventh level of the Shattered Realm always enveloped the entire area. His face remained expressionless, still displaying that cold and dignified demeanor. Facing Jiang Wuchen's storm-like attacks, he remained calm and composed. With a wave of his hand, he could condense the power of rules, perfectly neutralizing each of Jiang Wuchen's blows.

He could have easily counterattacked, he could have easily defeated Jiang Wuchen, he could have ended the battle the moment he realized that Jiang Wuchen had not mastered the power of the Shattered Realm, but he did not do so.

He continued to fight against Jiang Wuchen and deflect his attacks relentlessly, neither launching an offensive nor deliberately guiding the attack. It was as if he was merely "practicing" with Jiang Wuchen, as if he was waiting for something. Occasionally, a barely perceptible expectation and an indescribable consideration would flash in his eyes.

In contrast, Jiang Wuchen's breathing had begun to show obvious signs of instability.

Transforming oneself into a sword is extremely taxing on one's own strength and soul. In addition, the blessing of the fortune of all realms is not free. Every attack requires a large amount of fortune and one's own cultivation. The long-term high-intensity attacks have long since exhausted his soul, and the sword intent around him has begun to become disordered. The bright white light has dimmed at a visible speed.

His attacks remained fierce, still capable of tearing through space and shattering nothingness, but the power of each strike was gradually weakening. Every time he swung his greatsword of sword intent, his body would tremble slightly, and a trace of blood would spill from the corner of his mouth—he was about to give up.

Jiang Wuchen himself had already discovered the problem.

He exerted all his strength, launching attack after attack, each strike imbued with all his power, all his anger, and all his obsession. But no matter how he attacked, no matter how sharp his sword intent, no matter how powerful his strength, Li Sinan could easily deflect them. It was as if all his attacks were futile and a joke in front of Li Sinan.

His sword could shatter the world, tear apart the void, and kill any expert at the Breaking Realm, yet it could never cause the slightest harm to Li Sinan. In fact, it couldn't even break the barrier of rule power surrounding Li Sinan.

This is not the normal gap between the first and seventh levels of the Shattered Realm!

Even with a huge gap in skill, his all-out attack should have been able to harm Li Sinan in the slightest and shake Li Sinan's power of rules. But in reality, his attack couldn't even touch the hem of Li Sinan's clothes.

This feeling was as if he was still stuck in the Breaking Realm, still that cultivator who had just broken through to the Breaking Realm, fighting with all his might against a Shattering Realm expert—no matter how hard he tried, he could not cross that chasm, and could not pose any threat to the opponent.

"Why is this happening?" Jiang Wuchen screamed frantically in his heart, his soul filled with confusion and bewilderment. "My power has clearly reached the Shattering Realm, I can clearly shatter worlds, so why can't I hurt him? Why are my attacks so utterly useless against him?"

He felt as if he was about to grasp something, as if he was about to understand that crucial point, as if as long as he could break through that barrier, he could truly master the power of the Shattered Realm, break through Li Sinan's defenses, and injure Li Sinan.

But it just so happens that it's just a little bit off.

That one point, invisible and intangible, seemed both close at hand and far away. No matter how hard he tried or how much he concentrated, he could never grasp it or understand it. That feeling of being so close to success but always just one step away was driving him crazy.

On the battlefield, the battle between the two seemed to be as intense as ever. The roar, the sound of air being torn apart, and the sound of energy colliding resounded throughout the universe. Every collision could cause the void to shatter and could stir up endless energy tsunamis.

But anyone with eyes could see that the outcome of this battle was never in doubt from the very beginning. Jiang Wuchen was always the one initiating the attacks and giving it his all, but his attacks were always suppressed and easily neutralized by Li Sinan. He seemed to have the upper hand, but in reality, he had already fallen into a passive position and had the rhythm of the battle firmly controlled by Li Sinan.

Time passed slowly, and the anger in Jiang Wuchen's heart was gradually replaced by endless confusion.

He stopped thinking about Lin Nannan's death, stopped thinking about Shen Jianxin's injured state, and stopped thinking about his fallen comrades. Only one thought remained in his mind—to find that key point, to comprehend the true meaning of the Shattered Realm, to break through Li Sinan's defenses, and to figure out why his attacks could not harm him.

The flames of anger gradually died down, replaced by an unprecedented calm, a mysterious and peculiar state that quietly enveloped his soul.

His attacks gradually slowed down, no longer the fierce onslaught of the past, no longer simply accumulating sword intent and increasing damage, but becoming sluggish and steady. Each swing of his greatsword of sword intent carried a hint of probing and a hint of enlightenment.

In the end, he simply stopped all his attacks and stood in the void. The giant sword formed by his body no longer emitted a sharp sword intent, nor did it surge with immense power; it simply floated quietly.

Jiang Wuchen closed his eyes, and his aura gradually calmed down. The chaotic sword intent also began to subside. He completely entered a state of selflessness, a state of focused comprehension. Everything outside seemed irrelevant to him. The roar of the battlefield, Li Sinan's aura, and the gazes of Xiaoyaozi and Chen Su were all shut out by him.

His soul seemed to break free from the constraints of his body, floating in the endless void, overlooking all the heavens and myriad realms, feeling the flow of the rules of the heavens, feeling the essence of the power of the Shattered Realm, feeling the true meaning of sword intent—he entered a state of enlightenment he had never experienced before.

Upon seeing Jiang Wuchen's state, Xiaoyaozi and Chen Su, who were in the distance, had their expressions change simultaneously. Their eyes were filled with disbelief and shock, as well as a hint of understanding and relief.

"This is... a state of enlightenment!" Xiaoyaozi's voice trembled uncontrollably, filled with shock. "He actually entered a state of enlightenment at this moment! This is simply defying the heavens!"

Chen Su couldn't help but widen his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them. A relieved smile appeared on his weak face: "This is wonderful... truly wonderful... The enlightenment of heaven and earth, an opportunity that countless cultivators throughout the myriad realms could not encounter even once in their entire lives, he actually triggered this state during his battle with Li Sinan!"

Enlightenment is the most supreme opportunity for enlightenment in all the heavens and myriad realms. No matter what realm a cultivator is in, as long as they can enter this state, they can instantly perceive the inadequacy of their own power, comprehend the true meaning of their realm, and even transcend the shackles of their realm to achieve a qualitative leap.

They had both experienced this state before.

They never expected that Jiang Wuchen could, in such a critical and intense battle, abandon his anger and obsession and enter such a profound state of enlightenment—this was not only Jiang Wuchen's opportunity, but also the opportunity of all transmigrators!

In the center of the battlefield, Li Sinan watched as Jiang Wuchen entered a state of enlightenment. His face remained expressionless, but a clear hint of approval and understanding flashed in his eyes—this was the moment he had been waiting for.

He had long discovered that although Jiang Wuchen had broken through to the Shattered Realm, he had not grasped the essential power of the Shattered Realm. He had long discovered that the anger and obsession in Jiang Wuchen's heart had clouded his mind. He had long known that Jiang Wuchen was only a little short of comprehending the true meaning of the Shattered Realm.

Therefore, he did not take the initiative to attack, nor did he defeat Jiang Wuchen in one fell swoop. Instead, he focused on fighting against him and deflecting his attacks, all in order to force Jiang Wuchen to calm down, to allow Jiang Wuchen to trigger enlightenment in the extreme battle, and to allow Jiang Wuchen to truly master the power of the Shattered Realm.

He had served as the head of the Shenxing Division for countless years, standing at the pinnacle of all the heavens and myriad realms, and had seen countless geniuses, but he had never seen a cultivator like Jiang Wuchen who possessed such unwavering determination, such great resilience, and such heaven-defying opportunities. He had high hopes for Jiang Wuchen, and he felt that Jiang Wuchen might become the one who could break the balance of all the heavens and myriad realms and control everything.

Li Sinan slowly withdrew the power of the rules around him, ceasing all attacks. He simply stood quietly in the void, his gaze fixed on Jiang Wuchen, his expression calm, silently waiting for Jiang Wuchen to awaken from his state of enlightenment, waiting for Jiang Wuchen to truly master the power of the Shattered Realm.

Time passed little by little, and the changes in Jiang Wuchen became more and more obvious.

The giant sword of sword intent floating in front of him began to shrink little by little. The shimmering white sword intent no longer spread outwards, but instead poured into Jiang Wuchen's body, merging into his soul, his body, and into every inch of his meridians and every cell.

The state of transforming himself into a sword gradually dissipated, and the giant sword of sword intent dissipated little by little, eventually merging completely into Jiang Wuchen's body, as if that world-destroying giant sword of sword intent had never existed.

However, if one were to perceive it closely, one would discover that Jiang Wuchen himself had already transformed into that giant sword of sword intent—his body appeared to still be upright and seemingly without any abnormalities, but within his body lay boundless sword intent. That sword intent was no longer as sharp and outwardly revealed as before, nor was it the kind of reckless and violent accumulation; instead, it had become restrained, calm, and condensed.

No sword intent emanated from him, no power surged from him, yet he stood quietly in the void, giving people a feeling that could not be ignored or shaken, as if he himself was an indestructible and invincible sword, a sword that could cut through and tear everything apart.
