What a sword strike this was! This strike was aimed directly at the Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable. The Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable already knew he absolutely could not block this sword; the sharpness, the intensity, the sheer supremacy of this attack were too terrifying.

In almost the final instant, the Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable deployed his ultimate technique: Ghostly Unrivaled! He instantly morphed into something like a specter. This Ghostly Unrivaled was an exceptionally refined movement art (check Baidu for Huashan Immortal Sect updates).

It allowed for effortless stealth in the darkness, making him nearly untraceable. The Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable acquired this Ghostly Unrivaled technique by chance in the Lost Lands; it was not an art of the Evil Sword Civilization. After mastering it, no one could ever locate his true form in the darkness, and if his true form could not be found, he could not be defeated.

This was Ghostly Unrivaled! A method that rendered one virtually invincible within the shadows. The Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable was already a renowned figure in the Blindfolded Sword Hall, but even within that hall, many powerful experts were present.

Previously, the Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable could handle at most one opponent against three in the Blindfolded Sword Hall. But after mastering Ghostly Unrivaled, he could actually face fifteen opponents in the dark—a testament to the technique's sheer exaggeration. Those who fought him simply could not pinpoint his real body.

Now, the Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable activated Ghostly Unrivaled, and his form vanished instantly. Lu Yuan’s sword light nearly froze in mid-air. His opponent had disappeared; without a target, this sword strike could not be completed.

But the strike was not finished. This sword strike was nearly the strongest he could unleash. Yet, it was stuck at this moment.

How to find the opponent? Lu Yuan pondered in the darkness. If he couldn't locate his foe, once this strike passed, he would be utterly doomed, as this sword light could not sustain itself indefinitely.

Fortunately, within the area shrouded by the strike, time was almost suspended, allowing Lu Yuan the space to think. Lu Yuan suddenly felt that if this sword strike could grow even stronger, evolving into the true unification of the Six Great Iron Laws, it could become truly vast and peerless. A sword of such boundless nature could envelop the entire Blindfolded Sword Hall.

In that case, no matter where the Evil Extreme Celestial Venerable hid within the hall, as long as he was inside, he would be struck. In other words, he needed to complete the Six Great Iron Laws. But completing the Six Great Iron Laws was far from easy; both the Iron Law of Order and the Iron Law of Great Karma were immensely difficult to master.

In comparison, he should complete the Iron Law of Order first. For the Iron Law of Order, what he lacked were the Sword Intent of Glory and the Sword Intent of Descent. Lu Yuan summoned the characters "Dùn" (Pause/Suddenness) and "Wù" (Enlightenment), while a powerful fighting spirit erupted from the depths of his heart.

He refused to believe that a Sword Intent of Glory and a Sword Intent of Descent could stump him. The two characters, Enlightenment and Pause, radiated boundless light. In that instant, Lu Yuan truly pushed his potential to the extreme.

In the time that time was almost frozen, Lu Yuan did not spend long before he felt a trace of the Sword Intent of Glory—the vitality of flora, the lushness of trees. This was Glory. Glory is similar to Prosperity (Fán), but Prosperity relates to the quantity of flourishing, whereas Glory resides in the beauty of that flourishing state.

Glory is more magnificent, more precious, more beautiful, brighter, superior, and more moving than Prosperity. Sword Intent of Glory, be achieved! Now, only the final Sword Intent of Descent remained.

Descent! What is Descent? If there is ascent, there must be descent.

When the heavens and earth first separated, the clear essence ascended to become Heaven, and the turbid essence sank to become Earth. The existence of the Earth, however, was truly to nurture all things and cultivate all life. Indeed, only those strong enough in the environment of the sky could survive, but the majority of the weak could not.

A flower falls to the ground, merging into the mud, all for the sake of new life. What is called Descent is the sacrifice of oneself for new life, for new vitality—this is Descent. As for the decline of a family, that decline is not worth mentioning; let us only speak of the word Descent.

When a family declines, the positions it vacates for other families—this is Descent. In the void, another ancient talisman arose—a character for Descent. At this moment, Lu Yuan discovered that all twelve Great Sword Intents required for his Iron Law of Order were now gathered: War!

Peace! Prosperity! Decline!

All Things! Return! At this instant, Lu Yuan seemed to see a grand gate between heaven and earth, and through this gate, he could perceive the entire world.

Yes, the entire world. Everything, absolutely everything, was arranged according to a certain order. All things between heaven and earth were aligned according to order.

Humanity seems to lack order, constantly fighting, constantly slaughtering, but overall, humanity too follows the eight characters of War, Peace, Prosperity, and Decline. At this point, Lu Yuan felt his swordsmanship advance another step; he had now completely reached the full mastery of the Five Great Iron Laws. The Iron Law of Order was successful.

Now came the troublesome Iron Law of Great Karma. The Iron Law of Great Karma was an extremely troublesome law; grasping its essence was not easy. What his Iron Law of Great Karma lacked was the Sea of Universal Salvation (Pudu Zhi Hai).

What exactly was this Sea of Universal Salvation? Lu Yuan was now considered knowledgeable and experienced, but he had never heard of anything called the Sea of Universal Salvation (check Baidu for Huashan Immortal Sect updates). The name suggested a connection to the Buddha Ancient Civilization, but he was an enemy of the Brahma King (Su Wang Fo), and he absolutely could not go to the Buddha Ancient Civilization.

The Brahma King was now a figure at the Civilization Realm, and at this moment, Lu Yuan’s sword momentum was nearing its end. Time was short! Where was the Sea of Universal Salvation?

Lu Yuan scoured his treasury. He had luckily found a Tai Sui once and cultivated the Dragon of Earth Swallowing. Could he be so lucky again?

But Lu Yuan searched and searched, trying to find anything related to the Sea of Universal Salvation, yet he could not conceive of anything. It seemed his luck had run out this time; he could not find the Sea of Universal Salvation. Wait!

As Lu Yuan lamented his inability to find the Sea of Universal Salvation, he suddenly noticed a translucent image slowly appearing in his Sword Space. Huh, wasn't this the Buddha Sword Cultivator? The Buddha Sword Cultivator pressed his palms together: "Amitabha, young friend, we meet again." Lu Yuan couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you here?" The Buddha Sword Cultivator looked at Lu Yuan: "Since I transmitted the Iron Law of Great Karma, the Iron Law of Minor Karma, and many supreme skills and world-destroying sword arts to you, it is only natural that I am here." Seeing Lu Yuan’s displeasure, the Buddha Sword Cultivator said, "This is merely a sliver of my remnant soul, and the reason I am here is quite simple: I am testing your character.

Many years ago, when I transmitted the Dao in the Hundred Swords Tomb of the Hidden Sword Sect, I discovered your unparalleled sword path talent. Thus, I passed on the Iron Law of Minor Karma to you, along with the method to achieve the Iron Law of Great Karma. However, I also wished to test your character at that time, so this remnant soul has followed you all this way." "When choosing a successor, I value character above all else." "Having followed you, your disposition is humble and virtuous; you are worthy of being my successor.

Therefore, I have brought the Sea of Universal Salvation you require." At some point, a vast ocean appeared in the Sword Space. This ocean radiated an aura of saving the world and redeeming living beings. Standing beside this ocean, Lu Yuan vaguely felt the resolve to save countless multitudes of beings himself.

"In fact, the location of the Sea of Universal Salvation is very simple. It exists in everyone's heart. Once one possesses the heart to save the world, the Sea of Universal Salvation will manifest.

You already possess this heart to save the world, and the residual soul of the old monk has catalyzed it, causing your heart of salvation to expand into the true Sea of Universal Salvation. Of course, if your character were corrupt, you would never have obtained the Sea of Universal Salvation, and you would never have cultivated the Iron Law of Great Karma." "This sliver of my remnant soul is almost exhausted; I have nothing more to give you. Farewell." With a crash, the last remnant soul completely vanished.

(Check Baidu for Huashan Immortal Sect updates). This sword cultivator monk, who was nearly at the Civilization Realm many years ago, finally dissipated completely. For a moment, it seemed as if boundless heavenly flowers were raining down from the sky.

Lu Yuan knew the Buddha Sword Cultivator had died long ago, so he felt little regret. After briefly composing his emotions, he began to refine the Iron Law of Great Karma. Now, the Iron Law of Great Karma only lacked the final element, the Sea of Universal Salvation.

After all that, the Sea of Universal Salvation was in everyone’s heart—with a heart of supreme compassion and a heart of supreme benevolence to save others, the Sea of Universal Salvation is present. Finally, it was complete! Lu Yuan began to refine the Iron Law of Great Karma.

At this moment, Lu Yuan sat cross-legged upon the massive Disk of Great Karma. His eyes were tightly shut, his bearing as solemn as a Buddha statue; the usual laziness had vanished without a trace. He seemed like a Buddha descended to the mortal realm, inspiring an impulse in the depths of one's heart to bow down in reverence before a great virtuous monk.

Lu Yuan opened his eyes. In them, boundless Buddhic nature resided; all the causes and effects of all things were laid bare in the void. He had finally mastered the Iron Law of Great Karma.

The Iron Law of Great Karma was an incredibly useful law. He recalled that Karma was divided into three levels: The first level was seeing through cause and effect; with the Iron Law of Minor Karma, one could discern any injury another had suffered, although this was impossible if the opponent's spiritual power was far superior or if they used special artifacts for concealment. The second level was seeing through flaws in one's psyche; any past psychological vulnerability could be exposed.

This move was practically unrivaled. As for the third level of Karma, 'Slaying the Past Life's Karma,' it was even more invincible—to assassinate a powerful figure during their weak childhood. However, this method of slaying past life's karma was rumored to have never been mastered by anyone yet.

Lu Yuan had only reached the second level, the Karma of the Mind. Lu Yuan felt a sense of Great Perfection; the Six Great Iron Laws were now truly brought to Great Perfection. Lu Yuan resumed the same sword strike from before, the one that had halted.

The first half of the strike was stunning and majestic, but now the latter half was complete, peerless, sweeping aside everything!
