The Great Ruler: Starting from the Lower Plane

Ye Feng's thunderous voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth, echoing in everyone's ears, carrying an awe-inspiring majesty.

Upon hearing this, the entire world fell into a deathly silence, followed by a deafening roar.

"What... External energy is unable to enter, and the sealing formation is isolating itself..."

"..."

"So that's how it is. No wonder our land has fallen into such a state..."

"..."

"Does Lord Ye Feng mean to establish a new force? If we can join it, wouldn't that mean we'll have the opportunity to travel to the Great Thousand World in the future?"

"..."

"To integrate the power of this world, what a tremendous ambition! Only a Sword Emperor like Ye Feng could accomplish this..."

"..."

"Serving under a Sword Emperor and venturing into the Great Thousand Worlds—there's no need to even consider that..."

"..."

In an instant, a barrage of shocked, excited, and expectant gazes were cast toward Ye Feng, who sat in the main seat.

Ye Feng sat calmly, his aura vast and unfathomable, his gaze solemn as he swept over the crowd below, taking in everyone's reactions.

His proposal today was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a well-considered one.

The world is vast and boundless, teeming with powerful beings and countless races. To truly establish oneself in that world, one needs strength.

To improve one's strength, one cannot do without so-called cultivation resources. In the vast world, Supreme Spiritual Liquid is a universal commodity. It can not only be used to improve strength, but it is also a kind of currency. Even Heavenly Supreme experts use it for daily needs.

He couldn't possibly do everything himself, running around for cultivation resources all by himself. Joining other forces and becoming subordinate to others was not what he wanted, not to mention that he also had to take care of the people around him. Therefore, it was very necessary for him to establish a force that belonged to him alone.

Furthermore, this world was transformed from the ancient peerless sacred artifact, the Xuan Tian Sword, and contains the supreme inheritance left by the Heavenly Sovereign. If one is to truly control this sword in the future, then the issue of settling the creatures of this world must be considered.

The relocation of all living beings from this land is inevitable, so he needs to make preparations in advance.

"This matter is not urgent. You all have plenty of time to consider it. When I return next time, that will be the time when you can hope to travel to the Great Thousand World!"

Ye Feng's voice was calm, but as he spoke, his deep black eyes seemed to deepen.

He obtained the Xuan Tian Sword Jade Marrow today, which can be described as an unexpected joy. His preparations for going to the Great Thousand World are almost complete.

All that remained were two things: exploring the immortal volcano, searching for the essence of the fire, and visiting his grandfather one more time.

"No matter what the future holds, we are willing to follow the Sword Emperor!"

"..."

"Whenever Lord Ye Feng establishes an army, our Hailan Sword Sect is willing to follow him with the entire sect!"

"The same applies to my Nine Separation Sword Sect!"

"..."

In an instant, a chorus of agreement erupted.

Many of the Sword Emperors and Sword Kings present stood up to express their opinions, their expressions excited and their eyes full of fervor.

The Sword Continent has been closed for tens of thousands of years, and the energy of heaven and earth has gradually become thinner. These powerful people who stand at the pinnacle of the continent seem to be infinitely glorious, but in reality, an invisible sword has always been hanging over their heads.

Their lifespans are limited, and their path of cultivation has been severed; these are problems they cannot escape.

The cultivation system in the Sword Continent is different from that of the Great Thousand World, and resources are scarce. Talent often determines the upper limit of achievement, and there are few opportunities for change. Many of them have not made any progress in strength for hundreds of years.

Only by venturing into the wider world can new opportunities arise.

Today, Ye Feng, the only person in tens of thousands of years on the Sword Continent to break through to the Sword Emperor level, has given them an unprecedented way out.

The allure of venturing into the vast world is irresistible; it's a choice that doesn't even require one.

"These people can all be useful in the future."

From his seat, Ye Feng looked down at the excited crowd of powerful figures from all sides, nodded slightly, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Compared to the beings who cultivate in the vast world, the people present here may not be very strong, but that is only temporary. Once they switch to cultivating spiritual power, without the restrictions of this world, the situation will be very different.

"In that case, all of you may await news. It may take a decade or more, or even a century, before I, the Emperor, return..."

Ye Feng slowly stood up and spoke calmly, his voice filled with confidence.

A century is enough time to prove what he said today. This world cannot confine him, and he believes the future world will be the same.

"Respectfully bidding farewell to the Sword Emperor!"

Everyone bowed in unison, showing the utmost respect.

Ye Feng nodded slightly, then gestured to Su Zhen, Jiang Qingcang, and the others.

Noticing Ye Feng's gaze, Jiang Qingcang also stood up with a smile and faced the crowd.

"Gentlemen, you have come from afar, and it is a rare treat for us to gather at my Burning Heaven Sword Sect. Taking this opportunity, I would like to hold an exchange meeting..."

"..."

A grand event, worthy of being recorded in the annals of the Sword Continent, came to a close amidst the anticipation of everyone.

Ye Feng's name resounds throughout the world!

……

Tianxia Academy.

After the grand event, Ye Feng did not rush to the Eastern Sword Land to investigate the Undying Volcano of the Cangming Sword Sect's Supreme Elder. Instead, he returned to the courtyard with Su Qingxue and the other two women.

The four sat down in turn at the stone table in the courtyard, the atmosphere subtly subtle.

"My lord, what are your plans regarding the sect leader of the Fiendish Sword Sect, Li Yuan?"

Jiang Zhenyue's gaze swept between Ye Feng and Su Qingxue, her bright eyes showing a hint of understanding. She spoke first, breaking the silence.

"Li Yuan is a valuable asset. Since she wants to follow me, let her join the Burning Heaven Sword Sect in the future. Are you asking this because you're jealous?"

Meeting the scrutinizing gazes of the three women, Ye Feng couldn't help but smile, a slight curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

The value of the Xuan Tian Sword Jade Marrow is immeasurable in this world. Since Li Yuan has offered this item, he must keep his word.

If she wants to follow him, that's easy to handle; just have Li Yuan join his own faction.

"Why would I be jealous? If my husband likes her, he can take her in. Anyway, the three of us sisters can't stop him."

Jiang Zhenyue gave a soft hum and smiled charmingly.

Given her husband's current strength and status on the Sword Continent, if he really had such ambitions, having a harem of three thousand beauties would be a piece of cake, and that's something they simply couldn't stop.

Whether the three of them are willing or not, or whether they can accept it, is not important.

Su Qingxue remained silent, her cool eyes slightly lowered, lost in thought.

Chen tide's gentle face showed some curiosity, clearly wanting to know Ye Feng's true attitude towards Li Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng raised his hand and pinched Jiang Zhenyue's cheek.

"If I were truly a womanizer, I would have more than just the three of you by my side. Li Yuan is clever and resourceful, a rare talent, unlike you."

As he spoke, Ye Feng paused, his gaze sweeping over the three women with a hint of mocking amusement in his eyes.

He had no particular feelings for Li Yuan. At this critical juncture when he was about to leave this world, even though Li Yuan was extremely outstanding and no less than Su Qingxue and the other two women, he had no interest in her.

In his mind, Li Yuan was just a subordinate, someone he could use after building up his power in the future.

"Pretending to be something you're not. Li Yuan's Xuan Tian Sword Jade Marrow helped you a lot. This favor is considerable. If you continue to interact with her for a long time, it's hard to guarantee that you won't be tempted."

Su Qingxue suddenly raised her clear eyes and gently pursed her red lips.

There are few cats in the world that don't steal fish, and a man's words are the least reliable.

"It's not good for you to be so jealous all the time. There's no need to talk too much about the future."

Ye Feng shook his head and smiled, then reached out and put his arm around Su Qingxue's slender waist.

He was not a fickle person who would easily fall in love with someone new. No matter who he fell in love with in the future, or how many women he had, the three women had already married him and met him in humble circumstances. They were all devoted to him and were naturally different from each other.

Su Qingxue's beautiful cheeks flushed slightly. She gently pushed Ye Feng away, but did not break free from his embrace.

"That woman is no ordinary person; she's after you again..."
