I Am the Sword Heavenly Emperor

On this day, he stood with his hands behind his back, looking down on all the heavens, and struck three times with his sword.

With the first strike, he cut down the ninth heaven of the Heavenly Dao, turning it into a forbidden land of life.

With the second strike, he shattered the great world, splitting it into the Lower Realm, the Upper Realm, and the Heavens.

With the third strike, he created the Boundless Sword Abyss, floating above a sea of clouds and keeping the Heavenly Dao in check.

He once created the Nine-Word Sword Art, rivaling the Nine Mysteries; founded the Immortal Court and held dominion over the Great Dao; and fought alongside the Great Emperors to strike down the heavens. He was only one step away from success, but was ultimately set up, defeated, and killed.

A hundred thousand years later, he walked out of his tomb. The Immortal Court had fallen into decline, and the laws of the world had changed. With a three-foot sword in hand, he looked down upon heaven and earth.

"I don't care what Dao or what laws rule this age."

"With a single sword, I will cut down ten thousand Daos and shatter ten thousand laws."
