Xu Jin’s Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower was about to be forged to its limit. Once the tower reached its limit, Xu Jin would break through to the Seventh Tier.

For the breakthrough to the Seventh Tier, Xu Jin chose the Star Killing Skill, which had the highest difficulty but also the greatest invocation of star power.

The most important part of the Star Killing Skill is the Seven Killings Sword Heart, particularly the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart.

With such a long duration, Xu Jin’s high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart had been formed.

Whether it was stone, cliff, lake, or mountain, after long contemplation, Xu Jin could sense their life pulsations and then strike them down with a single sword.

However, stars are different from these stones, cliffs, lakes, and mountains.

They are too vast.

Thus, in the inheritance of the Seven Kills True Monarch, the final step to cultivate the Seven Killings Sword Heart, also the most crucial step, is to find a small world star domain—a Kill Star!

Only then would the Star Killing Skill be truly completed.

Only then could one use the Star Killing Skill to break through to the Seventh Tier.

At this moment, this Eighth Tier star domain, the Great Wilderness Domain, was Xu Jin’s place to test the sword with the Star Killing Skill.

According to the inheritance of the Seven Kills True Monarch, during the test of the sword, one must not be contaminated with the Heaven and Earth Authority of the test site.

Otherwise, even if the sword test succeeds, the breakthrough may still fail.

However, the Heaven and Earth Authority of this Great Wilderness Domain was now in the hands of the Blood God Sect’s Hierarch, Yu Shen, whose Primordial Spirit had not been destroyed nor had it appeared in the world.

At this moment, Xu Jin was floating in the air at the peak of a high mountain in the Great Wilderness Domain.

The Mingji Star Pattern had been pushed to its limit, and within the Daoist Embryo, a cluster of sword light, under the blessing of the Mingji Star Pattern, was continuously pulsating, spreading, and sensing the life pulsations of this small world’s Great Wilderness Domain.

The other existences in the Great Wilderness Domain, such as high mountains, flowing waters, and gorges, Xu Jin could now sense their life pulsations in a very short time. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Moreover, when he activated the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart, Xu Jin instantly sensed countless life pulsations.

The mountains below, a white cloud drifting across the sky, even the dry leaves lifted by a breeze, Xu Jin could sense the residual life pulsations.

However, the life pulsation of this small world still had no clue.

What is the life pulsation of a small world star domain?

Where is it?

As time passed, Xu Jin, sitting quietly on the peak of the mountain, experienced once again the difficulty of the Star Killing Skill while contemplating.

With a high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart already formed, and the powerful blessing of the Mingji Star Pattern, he still had no clue at the first sense.

It shows how difficult the Star Killing Skill is.

Half a day later, the Great Sun set, night fell, a strong wind swept through, and Xu Jin instantly captured the life pulsations of the strong wind, but where was the life pulsation of the Great Wilderness Domain?

As dawn approached, dark clouds gathered.

Xu Jin immediately sensed the life rhythm of the massive dark clouds.

Boom!

Beneath the dark clouds, thunder light exploded in the sky, tearing open a crack of dawn in the dusky horizon.

Though the thunder light was just an instant, Xu Jin also sensed its life rhythm.

The torrential rain poured down, instantly drenching Xu Jin, but he sat like a stubborn rock, continuing to meditate on the life rhythm of the Great Wilderness Domain amidst the rain.

Under full perception, Xu Jin could even sense the life rhythm of each raindrop.

As the torrential rain gathered into water, Xu Jin once again sensed its life rhythm.

The Seven Killings Sword Heart flickered slightly, and the sword intent slashed out, turning the struck puddle of rainwater into dead matter, losing some of its vitality.

But more rainwater joined in, and it seemed to come alive again!

Slash again!

The water gathers anew, and comes alive again!

Slash again!

...

Xu Jin repeated this process continually until the rain passed and the sky cleared, and the puddle of rainwater in front of him no longer received the constant inflow of rain.

The sword intent rose again, and that little bit of life pulsation dissipated instantly.

It turned into dead water!

However, although the rain was gone, Xu Jin still hadn’t found the life pulsation of the Great Wilderness Domain.

Xu Jin continued to perceive.

An hour later, Xu Jin’s Seven Killings Sword Heart trembled slightly, his gaze shifted, and he suddenly discovered that he had again sensed the life pulsation from the puddle of rainwater in front of him.

The puddle of rainwater that had been subdued by his Seven Killings Sword Heart came alive again.

A strange light appeared in Xu Jin’s eyes.

As he shifted his gaze slightly, his Divine Thought, Mingji Star Pattern, and Seven Killings Sword Heart focused all their attention on this puddle of rainwater.

The scorching sun rose, and the sun and moon set, and under the scorching sun, this puddle of rainwater grew smaller and nearly dried up.

But in this nearly dry puddle, Xu Jin suddenly sensed a hidden and deep, faint yet grand life rhythm through the rainwater.

The moment this life rhythm was sensed, the life rhythms of the clouds in the sky, the breeze by the mountains, and the stones and dead leaves beneath his feet were all encompassed within it.

Suddenly, Xu Jin understood.

Truly understood.

The world is like a person, and a person is like the world!

Eyes, ears, mouth, nose, tongue, limbs, hair, nails, skin—all of these, when taken alone, have life pulsations; losing one, a person is still a person.

But when each is taken alone, it is not a person!

So it is with people, and so it is with the world.

Every life pulsation seen and observed in the Great Wilderness Domain, taken alone, is not the Great Wilderness Domain.

But when they combine into a whole, they are the Great Wilderness Domain.

The pulsation of a small world star domain only requires continually pursuing the life rhythms of Heaven and Earth’s myriad things, and with enough patience, one can find its most fundamental life pulsation.

The life pulsation of the Great Wilderness Domain lies deep within the source of these countless rhythms.

Found it!

In the next instant, Xu Jin’s gaze sharpened, his Seven Killings Sword Heart trembled, and the sword intent slashed out instantly.

A single sword strike went forth, like a clay ox entering the sea.

Like an ant shaking a tree!

The Great Wilderness Domain showed no reaction.

This sword strike seemed to have caused no harm to the Great Wilderness Domain.

But the moment Xu Jin’s second sword strike went out, wind and clouds changed color between Heaven and Earth.

Fierce wind, violent rain, thunder, and even the terrifying power of Heaven simultaneously attacked Xu Jin.

Only, this natural power of Heaven and Earth truly posed only a slight chill to Xu Jin’s current strength.

Xu Jin understood the battle had just begun.

In the next instant, Xu Jin was amidst storm, rain, lightning, and thunder, continuously wielding the Seven Killings Sword Heart, one sword strike after another.

In the midst of heaven and earth, a chilling aura was constantly spreading.

All living beings within the Great Wilderness Domain felt an intense malice rising in their hearts at this moment.

All alien creatures, all tiger and leopard insects and beasts, turned their eyes to the summit of the highest peak in the Great Wilderness Domain.

There was an aura there that made them loathe it from the depths of their souls.

An unstoppable feeling emerged within them that if they did not extinguish this aura, they would meet a tragic fate.

Immediately, the tigers, leopards, insects, and beasts of the Great Wilderness Domain seemed to respond to a call, madly rushing toward the summit where Xu Jin stood.

Even if they faced death on their way, they feared nothing.

The indigenous alien creatures of the Great Wilderness Domain also cast hateful glances towards Xu Jin’s direction.

But compared to the tigers, leopards, insects, and beasts, they were more rational and thoughtful.

Many aliens were hateful and anxious, yet took no action, merely feeling odd.

However, some aliens with successful cultivation were driven by a force within, rushing to Xu Jin’s mountaintop location.

Xu Jin had already noticed the first batch of tigers, leopards, insects, and beasts coming to attack.

The Seven Kills True Monarch’s inheritance had mentions of this.

This is the World Will’s desperate counterattack.

No living being wishes to die, and a Small World is no exception.

With a thought, the small white tiger appeared before Xu Jin.

After such a long period of nurturing, the small white tiger’s cultivation level had reached the Ninth Layer Peak of the Seventh Tier, and Xu Jin had discovered the best way to nurture it.

That way was the golden horns atop the heads of the Golden Pillar Saint Clan.

These were among the small white tiger’s favorite foods, with several Eighth Tiers already eaten.

"Go!"

With a light command, the small white tiger understood its owner’s intention. Its illusory body flashed past, and the just-arrived hundreds and thousands of tiger, leopard, insect, and beast became corpses.

Before long, the four sides of the summit were piled high with bodies.

Even nearby rushing aliens, those below the Eighth Tier, perished in a flash of eerie white brilliance.

Though the small white tiger’s cultivation wasn’t high, its body was filled with intensely pure Acquired Metal Evil Qi; its core held a single wisp of Innate Geng Metal Evil Qi, unmatched in power.

This was the fundamental reason Ju Xuan had once kept this small white tiger on the golden horn atop his head.

The Golden Pillar Saint Clan is naturally adept at Gold Element Star Skills, with the golden horns atop their heads being extraordinary.

At this moment, the small white tiger finally put its abilities to use.

As for Xu Jin, he continued to wield the Seven Killings Sword Heart, striking sword after sword, consistently cutting through the life waves of the Great Wilderness Domain.

The Star Domain was vast, and the world was strong, not something he could kill in one strike.

According to the Seven Kills True Monarch, the Star Killing Skill is ultimately about patience.

If one sword won’t succeed, use a hundred swords, and if a hundred swords won’t succeed, use ten thousand.

If ten thousand swords won’t succeed, use hundreds of thousands.

The Star Domain itself is fundamentally dead; if you remain steadfast, success in killing the stars will come.

And the slain world star domain will ultimately yield!

The countless beings across the myriad domains fear death and love life.

This is instinct!

Once the Star Killing Skill begins, it’s a matter of persistence!

Sword after sword!

From dawn till sunset, while the area under the summit was already a mountain of bodies.

The small white tiger crouched on Xu Jin’s shoulder, gazing downhill, where no creature dared to approach.

Xu Jin continued wielding the Seven Killings Sword Heart.

Originally, continuously wielding the Seven Killings Sword Heart would consume Divine Soul Power, necessitating preparation of large amounts of pills or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to restore Divine Soul Cultivation.

However, Xu Jin was now utilizing the Spiritual Platform Star Skill of the Clearing Soul Star Pattern, within the Ninth Tier, where Divine Soul Cultivation continuously replenished.

After four days and nights of continuous slaying, Divine Soul Cultivation remained at full strength, while the Daoist Embryo grew by two portions.

Even ongoing star slaying didn’t impede the passive growth of Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Cultivation.

Finally, on the fifth day, when Xu Jin wielded the four hundred thousandth sword, an indescribable tremor swept through heaven and earth.

Instantly, the wind was clear and the moon bright. A starlight aura carrying fear and submission emerged before Xu Jin.

A sphere wrapped in Heaven and Earth Star Will, containing Heaven and Earth Authority, appeared.

It was one-tenth of the Great Wilderness Domain’s Heaven and Earth Authority and some Heaven and Earth Star Will.

Success!

The Star Killing Skill was complete!

However, Xu Jin didn’t accept it; instead, he let out a cold chuckle, continuing to wield the Seven Killings Sword Heart, striking down sword after sword.

Fifteen minutes later, a second sphere of Heaven and Earth Will starlight emerged.

After two hours, a third sphere of Heaven and Earth Will starlight emerged.

A day later, a fourth sphere of Heaven and Earth Will starlight emerged.

At the moment the fourth sphere of Heaven and Earth Authority appeared, all living beings in the Great Wilderness Domain felt an internal terror!

As if from this point on, their lives were handed over to be controlled by others.

Only then did Xu Jin sheathe his sword.

Four-tenths of Heaven and Earth Authority.

Four portions of Heaven and Earth Star Will.

Though it wasn’t all, Xu Jin knew this was all the World Will of the Great Wilderness Domain could offer.

Because the other sixty percent of Heaven and Earth Authority was with the Blood God Sect Hierarch.

Even striking further would yield no more.

Thus, the Star Killing Skill was truly complete.

Xu Jin’s most crucial preparatory work for breaking through to the Seventh Tier was complete.

The next step was achieving the ultimate limit.

In the next instant, the sword intent of the Seven Killings Sword Heart swiftly withdrew.

At the moment of withdrawal, Xu Jin suddenly felt as though the entire heavens and earth relaxed, and the inexplicable fear hovering over the beings here vanished.

Simultaneously, Xu Jin retrieved the pure pearl he had previously acquired and began forging the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower anew.

His Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower only needed half a layer of the Nine-cornered Cloud Tower to reach completion of its top tier at one hundred and eight layers.

Achieving the ultimate limit!
