The gleaming sword light flashed like daylight.
Most cultivators within the star realm witnessed the sword light. Regardless of their cultivation level, they all saw a bright white protrusion.
Even cultivators outside the star realm became aware, catching a glimpse of the brilliant sword light and hearing a clear sword chime.
Was this really sword light?
The great cultivators in neighboring star realms couldn't believe it and began wild speculation.
Within the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
The blue robe was still dripping blood, the crimson liquid falling into the newly formed sword sea, as if nursing it or claiming ownership.
If the entire Blue Sky Sword Sea were considered a magical treasure, its master would undoubtedly be Chen Xia.
All the saints rejoiced, happy that the Blue Sky Sword Sea had finally returned. Of course, they also worried about Chen Xia's physical well-being, as he was now the sect leader of the Blue Sky Sword Sea and the leader of all of them.
If their leader had problems, this newly returned Blue Sky Sword Sea would be useless.
Rather, Chen Xia was the true "Blue Sky Sword Sea" in their hearts.
Hum.
A sword chime sounded from the sword sea.
Chen Xia, holding the Immortal Sword, his blood-stained blue robe fluttering, walked towards the sky and suddenly flung his hand.
The Immortal Sword flew straight to the sky, continuously expanding until it was as large as a city, suspended between the vast sky and the sword sea.
It was exactly the same as thirty thousand years ago.
Chen Xia walked to the top of the Immortal Sword, wiped the blood from his brow, then raised his hand slightly, showing a hint of joy. Facing the vast star realm, he shouted.
"Cultivators of the Blue Sky Sword Sea..."
"Take your positions!"
Chi Yu moved first, his flames transforming into a protective divine robe. He appeared at Chen Xia's right hand, his aura shocking, the majesty of a second-tier saint intense.
He was the second-in-command of the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
This was the result of everyone's discussion. In terms of seniority, although he wasn't one of the Fourteen Sons of Vast Sky, he had the closest relationship with Chen Xia, having been sworn brothers thirty thousand years ago.
In terms of cultivation, he was the only second-tier saint, stronger than the others, so no one objected to him being second-in-command.
Next, Emperor Capital and Qiu Li moved, taking positions half a step behind Chi Yu, their robes fluttering, full of vigor.
They were the first to follow Chen Xia, so naturally, they went first.
After that, positions were indeed arranged according to this timeline. Hu Linye and Li Yue were at the far left and right.
Neither of them had any objections. Hu Linye had always been indifferent to worldly affairs, while Li Yue was overjoyed just to join the Blue Sky Sword Sea, let alone worry about position.
Then the elders of the Blue Sky Sword Sea took their positions at the very end.
At the very front was the blue-robed Chen Xia. He slightly raised his head, glancing at the sky, and asked.
"Still dare to look?"
There were great saints peeking from the realm of the Heavenly Dao. As Chen Xia spoke, the great saints felt a sudden chill.
A trace of sword intent instantly obliterated their prying divine senses, leaving nothing behind.
The prying saints and great saints hurriedly fled, not daring to say a word.
Chen Xia's expression remained calm as he turned to Emperor Capital and asked.
"I remember you have a list with the names of many saints and great saints, right?"
Emperor Capital quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, Brother Chen. These saints and great saints not only didn't cooperate but were also very hostile in their attitude."
"Mm." Chen Xia nodded, his gaze profound, and said softly.
"Above, there is the reckoning of the Heavenly Dao; below, there is the covetousness of others. Our Blue Sky Sword Sea is willing to protect the star realm, and naturally doesn't want to hear other voices."
"So go again, don't say much, just tell them I'm asking for their submission. Those who are unwilling, record their names again, and I'll go personally."
"Alright, alright." Emperor Capital nodded repeatedly.
"Then everyone, please take up residence in the Blue Sky Sword Sea," Chen Xia finally said, before descending onto the giant Immortal Sword.
Today, the entire star realm knew that the Blue Sky Sword Sea had returned.
In other words, the hegemon of the star realm had taken its place again.
This new hegemon was called the Blue Sky Sword Sea, and also Chen Xia.
Emperor Capital, following Chen Xia's orders, continued to negotiate with the saints and great saints in the star realm, accompanied by Jia Bai, Chi Yu, and Huang Can.
One thing was different now: Emperor Capital had the White Emperor, that cursed beast. He had to lead the White Emperor wherever he went, emphasizing his noble status.
The saints he conversed with were incredibly curious and couldn't help but point at the White Emperor and ask.
"Is this..."
"Just a small spirit pet, not worth mentioning," Emperor Capital laughed nonchalantly.
"If I'm not mistaken, your spirit pet is... is a great saint?" the saint pointed at the White Emperor in shock.
Emperor Capital waved his hand dismissively and chuckled, "It was almost an emperor before, but it didn't behave, so Brother Chen beat it down to a great saint. Can't be helped, that's what happens when you don't listen."
The saint swallowed hard, looking at Emperor Capital, Chi Yu, and the other two before him, feeling that these words were somehow directed at him.
He hurriedly said, "I agree to submit to the Blue Sky Sword Sea, I agree!"
"Oh? How come you're so understanding now? I haven't even mentioned Brother Chen's name yet, and you've already surrendered. Weren't you quite stubborn last time?" Emperor Capital asked, somewhat surprised and curious.
"Well, this just shows how powerful Brother Chen is," the saint quickly explained with a smile.
Emperor Capital nodded with satisfaction, pointing at the saint, "You're not bad, kid. You'll go far in the future."
"I hope Brother Emperor will guide me," the saint smiled again.
This expedition of Emperor Capital and the other three went very smoothly. Almost all the saints and great saints were willing to submit, perhaps having seen Chen Xia's strength and that sword light.
After all, in the star realm, power speaks loudest.
Seeing Chen Xia's overwhelming strength, they naturally had no choice but to nod and submit.
Meanwhile, in the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
Now that it was newly established, every saint had their own tasks to do.
Qiu Li loved reading leisurely books the most, so he was responsible for building the library and managing the divine techniques and spells stored there.
Li Yang and Li Yue were in charge of managing disciples, building areas for preparatory disciples and true disciples, and they could now recruit disciples from across the star realm.
If any saints had talented cultivators in their clans, they could also join the Blue Sky Sword Sea and become true disciples directly.
Hu Linye was the most idle, given the task of building the sect. He didn't build it himself but directed the elders to do so while he leisurely composed poems and painted.
Chen Xia remained at the center of the Blue Sky Sword Sea, serving as the greatest military deterrent.
His avatar returned to the dead star realm, continuing to cultivate in the black coffin.
The construction of the Blue Sky Sword Sea progressed quickly, and it was soon ready to accept disciples.
The elders might not have had great merit, but they had put in hard work, so they were all given the title of minor elder. If they wanted to advance further in the future, it would depend on their own abilities.
The saints didn't have official positions but were collectively given a title.
The Eight Saints of Azure Sky.
Chen Xia personally promised them: "No matter how much time passes, the Eight Saints of Azure Sky will only be lower in status than me, the sect leader, and the Eight Saints of Azure Sky are equal in rank."
This was the greatest promise.
Time passed, another thirty years.
Due to the continuous submission of saints, the fame of the Blue Sky Sword Sea echoed throughout the entire star realm. Even Golden Core cultivators in distant stars had heard of the Blue Sky Sword Sea and knew it was the most powerful sect in the star realm.
In the same year.
The Blue Sky Sword Sea's first large-scale recruitment of disciples across the star realm began.
