All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

Chapter 145 Sword Intent Returns to the Heart

Jiang Wuchen's aura became increasingly stable and refined. His previous fatigue and disorder completely disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented calmness and power. The power of the Shattering Realm flowed slowly within his body, no longer as violent and disorderly as before, but becoming freely controllable, as if he had mastered the power of the Shattering Realm for countless years.

Finally, Jiang Wuchen slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were no longer as bloodshot as before, no longer filled with anger and obsession. Instead, they became clear, calm, and profound, as if they could see through everything in the myriad realms and understand the true meaning of the rules of the heavens. Occasionally, a glittering white sword light would flash in his eyes, as fast as lightning, but it would instantly disappear without leaving a trace.

As he opened his eyes, the extremely sharp and violent sword intent that permeated this world vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

The shattered void, the violent energy, and the pervasive aura of nothingness gradually calmed down, and the entire world fell into an eerie tranquility, leaving only Jiang Wuchen and Li Sinan standing quietly in the void, facing each other.

Jiang Wuchen did not launch an attack immediately. He looked at Li Sinan quietly, his eyes showing no anger, no hatred, and no confusion.

He spoke slowly, his voice steady and calm, without the slightest ripple, yet clearly resounding throughout the entire world: "Director Li, it is indeed no wonder that you stand at the pinnacle of all realms."

Only now did he truly understand why Li Sinan had never taken the initiative to attack, and why he had always tried to neutralize his attacks—Li Sinan had never been toying with him, but rather guiding him, forcing him to calm down, and giving him a chance to understand.

He finally realized that the essence of the Shattered Realm was never about increasing power, nor was it about simply destroying the world. Rather, it was about control, balance, and understanding the rules. It was about using the simplest method to unleash the most powerful force. It was about "the sword intent returning to the heart, impervious to all laws" and "the unity of heart and sword, cutting through illusions."

Previously, he had been trapped in the attack mindset of the Breaking Realm, focusing solely on accumulating sword intent and pursuing damage, while neglecting the essence of sword intent and the true meaning of the Shattering Realm. Therefore, he was unable to harm Li Sinan and could not unleash the true power of the Shattering Realm.

Now, he has grasped the power of the Shattered Realm and truly understands what the Shattered Realm is and what the Sword Intent Returns to the Heart is.

Li Sinan looked at Jiang Wuchen, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. He nodded, his tone still cold and authoritative, but with less of his previous anger and more of his recognition: "Since you have calmed down, and since you have grasped the true meaning of the Shattered Realm, then let's continue to deal with the Sentinel matter."

"However, let me make this clear from the start: I did not hold back when I attacked Shen Jianxin before, and my attitude towards him will not change in the future."

Li Sinan's gaze sharpened, his tone carrying an undeniable authority: "In all the myriad realms, the Cautious Conduct Division allows no mercy, no pity, and certainly no personal feelings!"

"Kindness and compassion are never salvation, but rather the root cause of chaos in all worlds, a breeding ground for evil!"

"What all realms need is absolute calm, absolute fairness, an attitude that does not favor anyone, and impartial rules. Only in this way can the balance of all realms be maintained, can more disasters be prevented, and can the peace of all living beings be protected!"

Jiang Wuchen listened quietly to Li Sinan's words, without refuting or defending himself.

He knew that what Li Sinan said might be true.

Having served as the head of the Shenxing Division for countless years, Li Sinan has witnessed too many disasters caused by kindness and pity, and too many instances of breaking the rules due to personal feelings, leading to chaos in all realms. His indifference, his impartiality, and his unwavering stance may truly be the only way to maintain the balance of all realms.

But he still couldn't forgive Li Sinan for what he had done.

The girl's death is still vivid in my mind. That child, only a teenager, was wantonly tortured and cruelly murdered. When Li Sinan learned everything, he remained unmoved because of the so-called "rules" and the so-called "impartiality".

Shen Jianxin was severely injured by Li Sinan and was on the verge of death. If it weren't for Xiaoyaozi and Chen Su's intervention, Shen Jianxin would have already died at Li Sinan's hands. Was Shen Jianxin wrong? Although he sacrificed the Lieyang Realm and slaughtered living beings, he had his own unavoidable difficulties. His grief and anger had a source. He shouldn't have been treated this way.

These things, like thorns, are deeply embedded in Jiang Wuchen's heart. He cannot let go, he cannot forgive. He must seek an explanation for that child, for Shen Jianxin, and for those compatriots who died and suffered!

A resolute glint flashed in Jiang Wuchen's eyes. He slowly raised his head, met Li Sinan's gaze, and spoke solemnly and firmly, without the slightest hesitation or fear: "Director Li, I know that what you said may be right. I also know that the rules of the Shenxing Division are for maintaining the balance of all realms."

"But I still can't forgive you for what you did. The child's death, and the fact that you injured Shen Jianxin—I must give an explanation!"

"Since Director Li maintains this attitude, still refuses to let Shen Jianxin go, and insists on your rules, then I will also stand firm on my position!"

Jiang Wuchen's voice grew louder and more resolute, carrying a hint of determination and domineering power, resounding throughout the heavens and earth: "Shen Jianxin, I'm protecting him!"

"From this day forward, anyone who dares to lay a finger on Shen Jianxin, anyone who dares to harm my compatriots, is an enemy of me, Jiang Wuchen, and an enemy of all transmigrators!"

"Since Director Li still insists on pursuing Shen Jianxin and upholds your indifference and rules, then I will let everyone in all the realms see my determination, Jiang Wuchen's determination, and let them see the determination of us transmigrators to protect our compatriots!"

The moment he finished speaking, Jiang Wuchen slowly raised his right hand.

There was no surge of immense power, no burst of sharp sword intent, no flash of dazzling light; it was as if he had simply raised his hand casually, as if he had made a trivial movement.

But the moment he raised his hand, a gleaming white longsword quietly condensed in his palm.

The longsword was pure white, with a slender blade. It had no intricate sword patterns, no powerful sword intent, and no terrifying aura. It looked ordinary and unremarkable, as if it were just a common iron longsword, as if it could be broken with the slightest touch.

Yet this seemingly ordinary longsword caused Chen Su, who was in the distance, to freeze instantly. A chilling sensation surged from the soles of his feet to his heart and rushed to his mind, making him shiver involuntarily.

These two lunatics want to shatter this space!

"Not good!" Chen Su shouted sharply, without the slightest hesitation, and yelled to Xiaoyaozi beside him, "Xiaoyaozi! Go! Leave this space immediately!"

Without the slightest hesitation or question, Xiaoyaozi suddenly raised his hand, and the Taoist power around him surged wildly, instantly forming a distorted spatial passage in front of him and Chen Su.

The spatial passage emanated a rich spatial power, capable of instantly teleporting them out of this dangerous space.

"Go!" Xiaoyaozi shouted sharply, grabbing Chen Su's arm tightly. Without pausing, he flashed forward, carrying Chen Su into the spatial passage.

"Sizzle—"

The spatial passage contracted instantly and closed completely in the blink of an eye.

At the center of the battlefield, Li Sinan looked at the ordinary longsword in Jiang Wuchen's palm. The calm on his face was finally broken, and his cold expression turned serious.

He could clearly sense what was contained within that seemingly ordinary longsword.

After gaining enlightenment, Jiang Wuchen not only truly mastered the power of the Shattered Realm, but also comprehended the true meaning of sword intent.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Sinan slowly raised his right hand, and the power of the rules around him instantly surged to its limit. The pressure of the peak seventh level of the Shattering Realm erupted without reservation, more magnificent, more terrifying, and more sharp than ever before.

The pitch-black power of the rules rapidly condensed in his palm, transforming into a dense ball of rule light. Within the ball of light, countless complex rule patterns were intertwined, radiating a majestic yet eerie power.

That was the ultimate power of the rules of all realms, the culmination of his life's cultivation, and a symbol of his control over the rules of all heavens and realms.

This power of rules is incredibly powerful. It can customize, modify, and even abolish some things that are restricted by the myriad worlds. It can control the life and death of living beings, modify the laws of the world, crush all world-shattering realm experts, and break through the defenses of all forces!

"Jiang Wuchen, you truly haven't disappointed me!"

The moment the words left his mouth, Jiang Wuchen moved.

He didn't unleash a deafening roar, gather immense power, or release a sharp sword intent; he simply raised his hand and gently swung the ordinary longsword in his palm.

The movements, seemingly casual and slow, appeared to be just a casual strike, devoid of any power or threat. Yet, this casual strike carried an unstoppable and irresistible force, slowly advancing towards Li Sinan.

There was no sound of air being torn apart, no energy fluctuations, no burst of sword intent, yet wherever that ordinary longsword passed, the void quietly shattered, the rules quietly became disordered, and endless nothingness quietly spread. It was as if this longsword itself could cut through everything, tear everything apart, ignore all rules, and ignore all defenses!

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Sinan sent out the ball of ultimate rule light from his palm with a thought, carrying immense rule power, and fiercely met Jiang Wuchen's attack!

There was no earth-shattering collision, no violent energy shockwave, but the moment Jiang Wuchen's attack met Li Sinan's power of rules, an unprecedentedly terrifying force erupted!

The shimmering white sword light and the pitch-black power of rules quietly intertwined, collided, and devoured each other in the void. There was no earth-shattering movement, yet it contained a world-destroying power. The surrounding void shattered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and endless nothingness continued to spread, becoming wider and wider.

The two forces were in a strange standoff – Li Sinan’s power of rules was frantically modifying Jiang Wuchen’s attacks, trying to dismantle Jiang Wuchen’s power, and trying to render Jiang Wuchen’s attacks ineffective and futile. Each modification weakened Jiang Wuchen’s attacks, and each dismantling made Jiang Wuchen’s power more disordered.

However, Jiang Wuchen's attacks were never completely neutralized, nor did they become ineffective.

His attacks were modified and dismantled by Li Sinan's power of rules, while constantly evolving and developing new sword intent attacks and new forms of power. Each evolution made his attacks more fierce and terrifying.

One force is constantly destroying and disintegrating; another force is constantly generating and evolving.

The two forces counterbalance and suppress each other, maintaining a strange and dangerous balance. Neither side can gain the upper hand, nor can the other defeat the other. Yet, this balance is more dangerous and terrifying than any violent collision.

As the two forces confronted each other, and as they collided and devoured each other, the surrounding space began to slowly shatter, and there was no sign of it ever recovering.
