The people did not understand what was going on, but Shi Lang did, and said telepathically, "If any one of you have a single inkling of exploiting this alliance, leave, or you will die before you know it."

The message was conveyed to the Terrans only, but while the executives were shocked, they did not leave. The people in this ceremony were the most influential and the strongest. They all wished to grow stronger and knew what they need to do for that. Thus, none of them left the place.

Shi Lang only hoped that when the summoning was complete, these people can survive. The same message was being sent to the spirit beasts by Moon Baley. She knew what the summoned sword could do.

The dark clouds gathered above the valley, and then a black hole appeared in the center of the clouds, a few moments later, when everyone in the federation camp was worrying over the celestial changes, while the people in the spirit beast community had already gone down on their knees. A sharp light penetrated the black hole.

The light was so blinding that the people could not help but close their eyes, even the twelve councilmen were not spared. The light suspended itself in front of the people, and then emitted pressure targeting all the federation members. While some Terrans gave in quickly, some managed to resist the pressure for a bit long.

Shi Lang looked at Amelia and found her to be struggling while the rest of the people were already down. He saw that the younger generation was having trouble even breathing. He clenched his fists and said, "Senior, please restrain your aura."

An ethereal voice sounded, "What if not?"

Shi Lang replied, "Then please target it all on me, you do not have to humiliate my race as your master was also from my race."

The ethereal voice snorted and said, "You weaklings are not even fit to know about my master, let alone compare with him. However, I like your courage, let us see if you have the capital to back it up too."

The next moment all the pressure emitted from the light was diverted to Shi Lang. The young man sensed his shoulder slump and with every passing moment the pressure was increasing and his body was slumping along with it.

It did not matter how much he tried, his muscles were screaming and his bones were almost crackling from it. However, his legs did not bend despite all this. Five breaths passed, and while the people were still trying to catch their breaths, Shi Lang was sweating from head to toe, and his body was exerted to the limits.

The pressure had increased to the point where the ground beneath his feet had cracked. The surrounding people were scared and surprised, this sort of pressure was something they had never experienced before. The cracks had covered the entire platform and the void around Shi Lang could be seen trembling yet the guy was standing on his feet.

The spirit beast community was astounded by this. The trembling of the void was the indication of the immense pressure Shi Lang was facing and they could not digest this fact. The ethereal voice sounded again, "Ten breaths, not bad. Is that all you can do?"

Shi Lang's head has been looking down at the ground, but when he heard these words, as a cultivator his spirit to fight was ignited, and he closed his eyes. Recalling all the moments he spent inside the Shura realm and the battle intent that hid deep within him. The ethereal voice said, "You are done."

At this moment, Shi Lang raised his head abruptly and his long hair turned crimson, his eyes flashed with a glint that made the onlookers take a step back in reflex. The young man concentrated his gaze on the mass of light and said, "This pressure, is that all you can do? Unity."

The people from the spirit beast community were shocked to their core. The name of the sword was indeed unity, but even the strongest of them all never dared to call it out in such a challenging manner. This sword had the power to destroy the entire planet on a whim, but Shi Lang was calling out to it in such a fearless manner.

Moon Baley and the councilmen had thought that their eagerness to have the supreme spirit of their world witness this ceremony has invited trouble. However, when Moon Baley was about to step in and mediate the situation, she saw that Shi Lang stood up straight and walked toward the mass of light slowly.

The mass was suspended in the void, and while the people had trouble standing on the ground, Shi Lang was walking in the void. He said, "I have a poem here, do you want to hear it?"

Without caring or waiting for a reply, he said, "Under the moonlight, you shine like a beacon of death. Those from the path of evil, beware of my wrath. I will unify the realm, under one shade. Those who oppose me, be ready to face my blade."

The mass of light shivered visibly, and the faces of the spirit beast community changed a lot when they saw this. Shi Lang said, "This is what Tian Long said when he held your hilt after the battle at the Congming river. That night changed the course of the era, Tian Long rose to his feet and went on a path where he became the Emperor Supreme.

None of the people in the world of cultivation would dare to look at him with hidden intentions. Wherever he went, either the people bowed to him, or their heads fell on the ground. After ten months of reaching the peak of the nirvana realm, Emperor Supreme conquered the realm.The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via n(0))vel(b)(j)(n).

It is unknown how he did it because Nirvana was the starting line for cultivators back then, was it not? However, I know how he did it. It was a scroll of martial arts that he practiced, the emperor sutra. Was it not? The sutra that provided him with the mindset and strength to overlook realms and suppress the enemy using the laws of dao?"

The sword could not help but ask, "How do you know all this? Who are you?"

While the federation people were confused, those in the spirit beast camp were shocked, they could tell from the reaction of the voice, that Shi Lang had said something that was true and a secret.

Shi Lang asked, "Have you ever thought of being free from all the burden on your shoulders?"

The mass of light dissipated and in its place, an elegant sword appeared. The sword blade was three feet long and three inches wide. The reed of the blade was engraved with a pattern of chains and right above the hilt there were two characters that were pronounced as Unity.

The sword shivered and then it transformed into a lady who looked to be around in her late twenties. The lady wore white and golden robes, with a surreal beauty. The councilmen were shocked to see this because this was the first time the sword of Unity has revealed her spiritual form.

The lady gazed at Shi Lang as if her eyes were able to look into his soul. The young man also did not stop her and when the consciousness of the sword spirit entered his soul sea, Unity was shocked, she mumbled, "You are from that era. How is that possible?"

Shi Lang's avatar appeared beside her and the young man said, "Fate, is miraculous, is it not?"

Unity raised her guard and asked, "What do you want?"

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "We can talk about it later, let this alliance ceremony finish with peace first. I will tell you all that I can."

Unity gazed at him for a few prolonged seconds and then thinking about where this guy can go, she nodded. She had left a mark of consciousness on Shi Lang, and now she can hunt him anywhere if he tried to run away.

The sword spirit was arrogant, how can she listen to this mortal so easily? She asked, "Why should I let this alliance go on?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "The spirit beast clan have old ancestors all of them stuck at the peak of Mahayana or Ascended mortal realm. This alliance will help them overcome that obstacle."

Unity looked at Shi Lang and asked, "How do you know that?"

Shi Lang smiled bitterly and said, "Laws of Dao. Humans exploited the spirit energy and the fate of everyone else changed. Do you want to know how I know this?"

Unity nodded and Shi Lang replied, "After the alliance is set, I will tell you."

The sword spirit looked at him and said, "You are very cunning like he was. If you tried to trick me, I will discount you off your priced jewels and then torture you for a thousand years."
