Most people in this vast world were mere mortals. To ascend to a higher level, breaking through from a Great Sword Master to a Sword Venerable, was as difficult as reaching for the heavens. For even one person in ten thousand to achieve this was considered a stroke of great fortune.
Therefore, the realm of the Sword Venerable was known as the True Martial Realm!
Upon reaching this realm, even an ordinary martial technique, when unleashed by a Sword Venerable, would become something entirely different, its power increasing immensely!
However, few Martial Artists in the secular world knew that above the True Martial Realm, there was an even higher realm!
Those from the great sects called it the Transformation Realm!
That realm was called the Sword King!
Xu Su originally hadn't known about these things. He only learned of them after meeting Guo Ying, who had mentioned the names of various Martial Artist ranks, which he then committed to memory.
