Amidst this suffering, everyone once again witnessed the illuminating sword light that could open up chaos, and they finally gained some enlightenment...
Indeed!
The Holy Land was a shackle, and belief in Gods and Buddhas was a restraint. Only by cutting through them could one achieve liberation.
Just like cultivating the Sovereign Stage, one must cut through the Cutting Path to reach the Higher Void!
This was a method, a way to rely on one's own strength, to cultivate and transcend, to cut off the shackles and beliefs, and return to one's own path.
However, was there a simpler way?
Yes!
At this moment, they needed a transcendent figure to wield the sword and help sever this Realm of Captive Minds.
They needed someone to use the sword that could unleash the forces of chaos in a single strike!
