Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

[Congratulations, Host. You have successfully upgraded your sword technique, One Sword For All, to the Late Phase.]

[Remaining Kill Points: 9347]

Just as Ye Tian Yun heard the prompt, he suddenly felt a refreshed feeling throughout his body. For a moment, he felt like he was back to his prime, the realm he was in before his untimely death.

However, just as this rush of power died down, another wave came out from his dantian. An astonishing aura of Sword Domain Realm burst through the Sixth Floor of the Inner Court. This sudden outburst made Ye Tian Yun unconscious.

All disciples suddenly felt as if there was an immense force suppressing them. Crushing them, forcing them to kneel, as the vision in front of them began to turn dark.

Just as they felt their imminent death, a loud shout brought them back to their senses.

"Who dares to show off in my Seventh Peak?"

As the shout echoed, the pressure retreated almost immediately. The disciples were full of sweat, feeling shocked and terrified from the sudden turn of events.

Disciples pushed doors open as they rushed out of their cultivation abodes. By now, the whole Inner Court was in turmoil. As the disciples came out and started discussing, the commotion began to increase even more.

"Calm down." The same voice which had shouted earlier rang in everyone\'s ear. Albeit this time, it was much calmer and gentle.

An unreal pin drop silence prevailed throughout the Inner Court as the echoes of this voice slowly died down. The disciples looked up and found a middle-aged man standing in the air. His majestic aura only made them feel reverence towards him.

As the disciples got a clear look on his face, they felt surprised for a moment before immediately coming back to senses and cupping their fists in unison, "Greeting, Peak Master Duan."

Peak Master Duan slightly nodded his head and continued to observe the disciples with an indifferent expression. After a few minutes of silence, he said, "It\'s alright now, resume your cultivation."

Disciples slowly returned to their cultivation abodes while discussing what had just transpired.

The Peak Master took a deep breath and went back to the Inner Court\'s first level, where he usually cultivated.

Upon his arrival, he was greeted by the Inner and Core elders of the Seventh Peak. These elders had an apprehensive look over their faces.

"Greetings, Peak Master Daun. Were you able to understand what just happened?" A short elder, standing in the foreground, asked with an expression that was full of confusion.

To everyone\'s surprise, Peak Master Duan nodded his head. Walking a few steps towards the balcony, staring at the floors above, he said with a slight smile, "Time has come for the Seventh Peak to rise and regain its former glory."

"What?" The elders present at the scene shouted in unison, shocked by the words they had just heard.

One must know that the Seventh Peak of the Gracious Sword Sect is the weakest of all peaks and is widely considered a trash peak. However, for its Peak Master to confidently proclaim that the Gracious Sword Sect\'s status quo was about to change, it turned out to be quite shocking for the elders who were present at the scene.

The short elder, who had asked the question earlier, stepped forward once more, "Peak Master, forgive me for my ignorance, but how can it be easy? And wasn\'t the incident that just happened an enemy attack?"

Peak Master rolled his eyes, "Elder Ji, stop saying ridiculous things. How can anyone attack inside the Inner Court without alerting the people outside? And as for what I had just said, do you think a genius who has comprehended the Sword Intent cannot change the current situation?"

"What?" Once again, the elders were shocked by this news bomb which dropped out of nowhere. This led to immediate commotion among the elders.

"Sword Intent? Impossible!"

"How could this be possible? We have been monitoring everyone\'s progress very closely."

"Yes, and no one showed any signs of breakthrough to the Manifestation Realm of the Sword Intent."

"Yes, none of the disciples of our peak who are ranked in the Gracious Sword Ranking have shown progress towards Sword Intent."

"Unless the disciple who comprehended is actually not in the lower five levels, but rather among the weaker disciples?"

"That\'s even more absurd, I am not partial or anything, but we shouldn\'t even consider the disciples below Level Five floor in this discussion."

"I will disagree with you, Elder Min, don\'t forget that just yesterday, disciple Bai Qing\'er of the Fourth Peak revealed her astonishing progress in the Manifestation Realm of the Sword Intent. And she wasn\'t even an Inner Court disciple at that time."

"Well, she is a special case. Her talent can be called one in a century. Among the male disciples, the Inner Court disciple who is closest to reaching the first level of Sword Intent is Mu Xing. His talent is almost equalling Bai Qing\'er."

The Peak Master was standing with his hands at the back, observing the crowd of elders discussing among themselves. When he heard the last sentence, he coughed slightly.

A cough was enough for the elders to shut up and focus their attention on him.

Peak Master Duan then sighed before saying, "You people are not getting what I just meant. Even if Mu Xing and Bai Qing\'er are talented enough to get to the Manifestation Realm of the Sword Intent, but do you think that is enough to change the ranking of their peaks?"

Some elders just shook their heads in denial as they thought upon this question, while very few elders, including Elder Ji, the short elder from before, had their eyes opened wide in shock. They had understood the meaning behind Peak Master Duan\'s words.

Peak Master Duan turned back and resumed gazing at the floors above as he continued his words, "A disciple on our peak has passed through the Manifestation Realm and had reached beyond that realm."

It was now the turn of the remaining elders to drop their jaws in shock.

…

Meanwhile, in Cultivation Abode 43 on the 6th Floor, Ye Tian Yun regained his consciousness.
