After she reached the Transcendent Void Realm, Wang Shouzhe spared no effort and personally used Holy Grade Improvement Liquid to refine her Bloodline, pushing it further to reach Saintess Class C!

Now, at only a little over six hundred and eighty years old, she had just broken through to Level Four of the Transcendent Void Realm on the road not long ago, and already counted as someone in the Mid Transcendent Void Realm! According to her current Bloodline Talent and the resources supporting her, even if she cannot obtain the Inheritance Sacred Diagram and thus cannot upgrade her Bloodline again, it will only take about eight hundred years for her to achieve the True Immortal Realm.

To become a True Immortal before one thousand five hundred years of age is insanely awesome even across the entire Sacred Domain.

This is the benefit of a clan with powerful, abundant resources—every step taken is the optimal choice, with the best resources supplied at every turn.

Unlike predecessors such as Wang Shouzhe and Wang Longyan, whose path had been full of stumbling blocks; in the early stages their Cultivation speed was far inferior to that of the younger generation.

Once one’s cultivation base reaches the Transcendent Void Realm and the True Immortal Realm, the time needed to cultivate each level becomes rather lengthy. The early stages of the Void Realm are still manageable, but the further you go, the longer each level takes. Even for a Cultivator with the aptitude of a Saint, it’s normal to spend one or two hundred years on a single level after reaching the Advanced Transcendent Void Realm.

This is why those outstanding members of the Wang family now collectively find their Cultivation Realm bunched up in the Transcendent Void Realm.

There’s nothing to be done. If you calculate carefully, Wang Shouzhe’s actual age is only about four hundred years greater than that of his seventh-generation granddaughter, Wang Jinyu.

Such a tiny age gap cannot open up much of a difference over the long span of the Void Realm. If everyone reaches the Mid True Immortal Realm, where each level can easily take several hundred years to cultivate—

A mere few hundred years of age difference becomes even more negligible, so it’s perfectly normal for them all to cluster at the same level.

Back to the main topic.

Wang Jinyu strode forward, taking the lead as she quickly advanced to the four hundredth, then the five hundredth level.

The Sword Intent poured down toward her like a sudden violent storm, yet she remained relaxed and at ease, dispelling it all with casual ease, as if she were strolling in a gentle Spring Rain, enjoying the time of a young maiden’s spring outing.

The younger members of the Wang family following behind her were also relatively relaxed. They were Wang Huanjian, a sixteenth-generation Direct Vessel clansman of the Wang family, and Wang Peilan, a sixteenth-generation Direct Vessel woman. Both appeared to be around three to four hundred years old.

Though they were not as stunningly brilliant as Wang Jinyu, they still possessed Son of Heaven Grade B Bloodline. One was at Level Six of the Divine Power Territory, the other at Level Eight of the Divine Power Territory!

Most importantly, they had yet to inherit any Immortal Scripture!

There was no helping it. Over the last five hundred years, although the Wang family had continuously acquired new Immortal Scriptures, there were simply too many outstanding juniors in the clan. With too many monks and too little porridge, there just weren’t enough to distribute.

Therefore, many young elites of the Wang family who aspired to the True Immortal Realm or even higher realms actively joined the various exploration teams of the Wang family, hoping to obtain an Immortal Scripture before stepping into the Void Realm.

As for Dongfang Aoshi, the Disciple of Wang Liyao, his current Bloodline was only World’s Best Grade D. Theoretically, he didn’t yet qualify to inherit an Immortal Scripture, but he was still young, so the pressure from the Sword Intent wasn’t too obvious for him.

Even so, once he reached the four hundredth level, he was already extremely strained. He had to sit cross-legged to comprehend the Sword Intent suppressing him, then inch his way upward level by level.

And there were many others just like him!

"All of you participating in the Sword Path assessment, listen carefully—you only have ten years to break through the Sword Path. If you exceed the time limit, it counts as failure." While the Sword Palace Artifact Spirit reminded everyone, its attention was fixed on the few young elites of the Wang family.

Especially Wang Jinyu—she drew the Sword Palace Artifact Spirit’s gaze most intensely.

How many years has it been—how many years has it been since the Sword Palace has seen... Wait! The Artifact Spirit suddenly realized that since the establishment of Zhenze Sword Palace, there had never been such a stunningly peerless Disciple.

Back then, although the Immortal Alliance was powerful, its territory was simply too vast. Usually, the closer you got to the center, the more concentrated the resources, with countless Immortal sects and Dao Sects clustered there.

Zhenze Sword Palace, however, was merely a branch Sword Palace under the renowned Sword Cultivator super-sect, the Sword Emperor Palace. Moreover, it was established in a relatively remote place like the Zhenze Area, with the primary purpose of looking after this resource-poor, sparsely populated region.

But when resources are scarce and population is thin, the probability of producing geniuses is naturally low as well.

In the at most million-year history of Zhenze Sword Palace, only a dozen or so Sword Saint Level figures had emerged, with Yaoguang Sword Saint being the last of them. Yet even those Sword Saint Level figures, when they walked the "Sword Path" back in their day, were far inferior to Wang Jinyu in performance.

Back then, Yaoguang Sword Saint and the others had performances roughly on par with the two people behind Wang Jinyu.

Nine hundred levels!

One thousand levels!

In just an hour, Wang Jinyu calmly withstood the Sword Intent that lashed at her like a violent storm and strode into Zhenze Sword Palace.

"Congratulations on passing the Sword Path trial. What is your name?" The Sword Palace Artifact Spirit asked Wang Jinyu excitedly. "The Sword Path has tested your bone age; it seems you’re not yet seven hundred years old?"

"My name is Wang Jinyu, and I am six hundred and eighty-seven years old this year." Wang Jinyu cleared her throat lightly and answered with a calm expression, "I have not yet obtained the Inheritance Saint Diagram, and my current Bloodline is Saintess Class C."

Hearing this, the Sword Palace Artifact Spirit grew even more excited: "Congratulations, Wang Jinyu! You’ve broken the historical record of the Sword Path of Zhenze Sword Palace! Your Bloodline Talent is already enough to rank in the top hundred of the Sword Emperor Palace’s historical records, and you now qualify to become the Direct Disciple of a certain Sword Emperor. However, the specifics will still depend on you passing the test of the Heavenly Sword Tower."
