While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move

[The Demon Emperor is also a creature of intelligence; although the Demon Race is cruel, they too possess a basic sense of fear.]

[You take a few Wound Healing Pills and make a show of readiness to battle the silver-haired Demon Emperor to the death.]

[At last, it seems your aura has frightened the silver-haired Demon Emperor, and he chooses to turn tail and flee.]

[Seeing the Demon Emperor flee, you can\'t help but laugh loudly to the sky, feeling all the frustration in your heart dissipate.]

[You choose not to pursue but instead mount your flying sword and leave gracefully.]

[After flying a thousand miles, you can\'t help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, and you hastily enter the Spirit Field Cave.]

In the real world, Su Xing takes a deep breath and says,

"As expected, the brave die of their daring and the timid of their fear... This silver-haired Demon Emperor is strong, but he fears death. After I killed so many Legendary Demon Beasts, his courage broke!"

Su Xing knows that with his strength, if he continued to contend with the silver-haired Demon Emperor, his chances of death would be high.

However, the Demon Emperor lacks the courage to take on a mutually assured destructive fight.

There\'s a saying, \'On a narrow path, the braver one wins,\' and now that the Demon Emperor has lost heart, he, Su Xing, has prevailed!

"After this battle, my understanding of the Earth Sword should reach Great Perfection naturally, shouldn\'t it?"

A hint of anticipation rises in Su Xing\'s heart as he looks towards the simulation panel.

[Back in the Spirit Field Cave, you immediately start healing.]

[You feel fortunate that the silver-haired Demon Emperor fled; you were already at the end of your tether, hardly able to fight.]

[In the following three years, you stay in the Spirit Field Cave to heal, diligently absorbing the insights from the previous battle\'s sword techniques.]

[In the twenty-third year, you leave the Spirit Field Cave and return to the Slaughter Battlefield.]

[However, you arrive a bit too late; almost all humans from the Beast Taming Realm have perished, and the world has turned from thriving to desolate.]

[You remain quiet, only returning alone to the original Red Dragon\'s lair, and back to Blue Star.]

[At this moment, you are just a hair\'s breadth away from the Great Perfection of the Earth Sword; what you need is an epiphany of the heart.]

[In the twenty-fourth year, on the day of Awakening of Insects, you arrive at a mountain you once visited.]

[Watching the lightning flash across the sky, you suddenly have a realization.]

[With the aid of the transient thunder on the day of Awakening of Insects, and under the thundering sky, you wield the Spirit Sword Mo Bing.]

[The speed of your swordplay gets faster and faster, seemingly in correspondence with the thunder in the sky.]

[Speed, the ultimate speed!]

[You practice sword techniques relentlessly for three days and three nights without rest; with every slash of your sword, it seems to be accompanied by the sound of thunder; this is the ultimate speed!]

[And for those three days and three nights, the mountains within ten miles are struck by thunder and rain.]

[Until you swing the final sword stroke, merging with the thunder on the horizon.]

[You feel enlightened; your understanding of the Earth Sword naturally progresses to the Great Perfection!]

[Using thunder as a medium, your comprehension of the forces of heaven and earth greatly surpasses what it was before.]

[After reaching Great Perfection of the Earth Sword, you swing your sword at will, and it strikes like thunder, cutting a mountain in half as if out of thin air...]

[At this moment, your heart is full of confidence; if you encounter the silver-haired Demon Emperor again, after a fierce battle, the final victor must surely be you!]

Seeing this, Su Xing can\'t help but reveal a smile and murmurs to himself:

"Finally achieved... Earth Sword Great Perfection, pursued the ultimate in sword speed!"

"The power of speed... If I encounter the silver-haired Demon Emperor again, I\'m sure I could win the fight..."

After a pause, Su Xing adds:

"However, if it really comes to a life-and-death struggle, even if I were to win, I might risk falling... After all, as a Sword Cultivator pursuing the ultimate offense, my defense is slightly weaker..."

"To kill the Demon Emperor and come out unscathed, I probably need to bring my Body Refinement Cultivation Level up to the Broken Void Realm Great Perfection!"

So thinks Su Xing.

"Still, there should be several more years to go... Plenty of time for more cultivation! Reaching the eighth layer of the Broken Void Realm shouldn\'t be difficult!"

His gaze turns back to the simulation panel.

[After reaching Great Perfection of the Earth Sword, you haven\'t slacked off; you still take Rebirth Pills daily, striving to improve your cultivation.]

[Thus, a year passes slowly.]

[In the twenty-fifth year, your cultivation advances further, reaching the eighth layer of the Broken Void Realm!]

[After reaching the eighth layer of the Broken Void Realm, you head to Demon-Subduing Pass.]

[The situation at Demon-Subduing Pass is very optimistic; legendary warriors of the Human Race even express confidence in holding the pass for a thousand more years.]

[But you remain silent, knowing from past simulations that three years from now, on the day of the coming of the Demon Saint, Demon-Subduing Pass will fall!]

[In the twenty-sixth year, you plan to make the most of the last three years, continuing to strive to improve your own cultivation.]

[You attempt to cultivate the Three Talents Sword Technique "Heavenly Sword chapter," but frustratingly realize that it demands a high level of resonance with the forces of heaven and earth, and currently, your understanding is only deep concerning the power of lightning.]

[Therefore, even though you possess an Innate Sword Body, you struggle to cultivate the Heavenly Sword chapter.]

[But you\'re not one to give in easily, continuing to strive every day to improve your Body Refinement Cultivation and to attempt the Sword Dao of the Heavenly Sword.]

[Before you know it, another two or three years pass...]

[In the twenty-eighth year, your understanding of the Heavenly Sword chapter remains superficial, due to insufficient resonance with heaven and earth, and not a failing of the Sword Dao.]

[However, your cultivation has progressed, taking a small step towards the ninth layer of the Broken Void Realm.]

[One day, the Double-pupil Demon Saint arrives at Demon-Subduing Pass with three Demon Emperors.]

[The terrifying aura of the Demon Saint immediately plunges all the strong warriors of Demon-Subduing Pass into panic.]

[Among those three Demon Emperors, you also see the previously fleeing silver-haired Demon Emperor.]
