Eternal Swordsman - 2
Chapter 15

The Power of Tensugan, the Pledge of Allegiance

"He instantly broke through to the third level in one go"

"His team members are also fierce"

"He could reach the fourth level easily if he wanted to. This guy's weird, who is he?"

"Even the chosen children of a great power cannot do that. How strong is this kid?"

Many onlookers were very surprised to see how Jia Lin directly crushed the pressure and overcame the laws on the first and second floors with little or no effort at all. He instantly made it to the third floor and passed by there to understand the law, but most people felt that he could pass that level if he wanted to. But this is just an assumption.

Jia Lin stood on the third floor, where he could see Lou Zen Tin and the others meditating. Their eyes were closed as they resisted the pressure from the third floor and tried to realize the laws they had comprehended.

Jia Lin looked in front of him and all he could see were lines exchanging in the air. These lines formed patterns that flowed across many strange paths; sometimes these patterns would form into birds, seals, the ruins of the Dao Law, and many other profound truths.

Tensugan's visual power was still valid; this was the main reason why Jia lin could see all of these lines and patterns. Tensugan is one of the legacies of the Nilfin Empire and can be considered the strongest of all. Tensugan can see all the laws, concepts, origin energy, and even source power, as well as let one quickly understand the laws that Tensugan sees and violates.

Not only that but it allows its users to see and move across dimensions, cut open space, and stand inside a huge void. This is given that the user has enough power to activate part of Tensugan's abilities. Souls and mental desires can be easily burned using illusory fire and the like, like its power.

The number of abilities Tensugan possessed was almost endless and even the Emperor of the Nilfin Empire had no idea where the limits of Tensugan's strength were put.

Jia Lin's mind felt as if it had opened up to a new world, the laws he saw now were completely different from the ones he used to be. Or maybe the law has always been the same, but now he sees it from a different point of view, in a more profound way.

Jia Lin saw these lines and patterns, he completely ignored the pressure from the third floor due to the pressure his body was experiencing when in Sage mode ten times heavier and pressing than this.

"I never thought that this Tensugan would be so heaven-defying" Jia Lin murmured.

Around his body, time slowed down. This was one of the abilities of the Law Tower, it could reproduce the law of a concept being practiced and improve its function. As time slowed down around Jia Lin, he knew that this was the first stage of the concept of time, Stagnation but the strange thing was that his body not only slowed down but completely stopped, he said, as if trapped in time.

"This is the first stage of the concept of time stagnation but also something else. Hmm is this a stoppage time, a pause?"

As Jia Lin thought of this, black clouds formed around him. Inside this cloud, Lightning crackled as the brutal power of thunder resounded. This thunder was purple gold in color and its power was much stronger than ordinary thunder

"Hmm, thunder" Jia Lin stared at the clouds forming around him.

He had almost forgotten that he now had the power of thunder within his body from the Jade Clan. So in a sense, he now had a closeness to the power of thunder, so the reason why thunder was formed was a test for him.

Tensugan spun as he broke the lines and patterns around Jia Lin. The lines he now saw were gray and represented the laws of time. These lines are tightly arranged as if forming a brick wall that can block everything that goes in and out. But what these lines did was actually lock onto Jia Lin's body and everything around him.

Nevertheless, Jia Lin was still confused by the mysteries of these laws and lines. Although Tensugan allowed him to see these lines which became the basis for all laws and concepts, and the fact that it also opened his mind to understand these laws more clearly, he said, what confuses him is why the law consists of different colors and lines in the first place.

This was the problem that Jia Lin was experiencing. For the laws of time, gray lines were stacked against each other to lock in space and for the laws of thunder; the lines were blue in color and moved at high speed. Jia Lin sighed.

"The "great Tao was truly something that a cultivator couldn't comprehend overnight. Perhaps the higher I go up, the more truth I can reveal" Jia Lin thought inwardly.

At this moment, the waves of Saber energy made the atmosphere fluctuate and tremble. Exio Ge opened his eyes that were emitting a cold light and a sharp bloodlust; he was just about to head to the fourth floor when his eyes landed on Jia Lin's body. His eyes instantly widened as he took a step back, pointing and wanting to say something but nothing came out of his mouth.

All the current geniuses also opened their eyes, their destination, the fourth floor. But everyone's eyes were now on Jia Lin. Only Sun Meng, Bing Peng, Lou Zen Tin, and Exio Ge truly knew Jia Lin's terrifying battle power, the rest did not know. This was because they were all expelled before they could see how powerful and abnormal Jia Lin was in that strange temple.

The only thing they knew about him, was that he was at the ninth stage of the earth realm. A shocking feat that they could not do even if they were given more resources. After the events in the strange temple, they were told by their respective powers about Jia Lin's strength.

"So, you made it here," Yen Tin said as she looked at Jia Lin in a strange way.

One had to know that Jia Lin was now part of the Flying Sword Sect and his strength far surpassed Yen Tin, so he overshadowed him once he revealed his true battle power. But that's how life is, she can't do anything about it, and maybe this is a good thing for her, who knows?

"It seems so" Jia Lin bent her neck to the side as she replied Yen Tin.

Sun Meng looked at Jia Lin, his muscles stretching uncomfortably. Jia Lin looked at him and Lou Zen Tin, while ignoring Bing Peng and Exio Ge who had deadly killing intent surging from them. After which, Jia Lin walked up to Sun Meng, his face as cold as ever, and with every step he took, the laws of time around him would be shattered and the thunder clouds forming in the sky evaporated.

"The Big Stone forms are ruling over your body. It seemed that the third ancestor did not have the Stone Sutra that allowed your body to remain human and not turn into a Stone Giant" Jia Lin's words caused Sun Meng to look at it more deeply.

That's really hard. The third ancestor really did not have the Stone Sutra and it was only a matter of time before his body started to produce a stone-like skin. But for this belief, Sun Meng had already accepted it. Her heart was now different from her arrogant past.

“How did you know about Stone Silk?” Sun Meng asked Jia Lin who was standing in front of him. Sun Meng's facial expression was calm and serene, firm, and full of vigor. This really impressed Jia Lin more than anything.

"That's not the reason why I'm here. I have a Sutra that is even stronger than the Stone Sutra. This silk can make you soar high in the sky, a king among kings, unmatched under the high heavens. This silk will enhance your Great Stone. Form, allowing him to take his next step and breakthrough to the Stone King Realm. Your heart is firm, much firmer than before. This change is very much my love"

After Jia Lin finished speaking, he let what he said sink in. The others after hearing Jia Lin looked at him as if seeing a ghost. Did he really have such silk and how did he know so much about Sun Meng's condition?

“For you to give me this Sutra, you must have the condition in mind. So just go ahead and let me know your condition” Sun Meng still remains calm. His mood was like the flow of great rivers.

"alright. I've given power to many people and if you choose, you could be one of those people with untold power and potential. Just pledge allegiance to me and you will rise with me to the Eternal world."
