Grandpa, times have changed.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior," Su Jian said solemnly.

“But you have already helped me a lot, senior, how could I possibly accept your gift again?”

Before they met, he was looking forward to the little gift that his senior had mentioned.

But after actually meeting him, he felt embarrassed to accept the invitation, since he probably could never repay the great kindness of his senior in this lifetime.

One should not be so greedy in this world.

"Besides, I have my own sword and have never thought about replacing it."

Su Jian raised the jade longsword in his hand, which was already pitted, cracked, and full of nicks on the blade.

This sword has been with him since the beginning of his cultivation journey. He nurtured it little by little with his spiritual power, transforming it from a jade ruler into a sword.

He wouldn't change even the best sword.

He spoke these words sincerely, but the seven Golden Core cultivators beside him and Lin Chen in the distance were inwardly cursing him as an idiot.

Are you pretending to be something you're not?
That's a magical weapon for those above the Nascent Soul stage! If you don't want it, I will!

Senior, please take a look at me!
"You have your own sword?"

With a gentle wave of his hand, Xu Xing sent the sword that had been floating between the two of them back to Su Zheng's side.

Instead, the Heaven-Cutting Sword slipped from Su Jian's hand and floated to Xu Xing's front, where Xu Xing reached out and grasped it.

The crimson longsword on his back trembled slightly, as if it were somewhat dissatisfied.

The entire world of magic weapons seemed to be shrouded in a shadow.

However, this feeling comes and goes quickly.

The seven Golden Core cultivators couldn't help but look up at the sky, where golden clouds rolled in, but there was nothing unusual about them.

illusion?

"Now that you have a choice..."

He held the Heaven-Cutting Sword horizontally in front of him, looking at the utterly miserable sword body.

Boom!

Su Jian felt a jolt in his soul.

The Cultivation Furnace, which had been hidden deep within the soul and had never made a sound because of Xu Xing, suddenly began to vibrate violently.

The [Life Essence Liquid] inside the furnace began to change color little by little.

Deep blue, purple, and gold are ultimately transformed into an incomparably dazzling, bright red that feels burning hot at first glance!

click!
The furnace lid suddenly opened, and the [Life Essence Liquid] inside surged out like a celestial river pouring down!

Wow!
The [Life Essence Fluid], which should have existed only in the realm of illusion and spirit, has actually materialized and appeared in the real world in a grand manner.

For a moment, even the golden clouds in the sky seemed dim.

This is no longer the capability that the [Cultivation Furnace] should possess!
Whether it was the seven Golden Core cultivators or Lin Chen and Su Jian, they all clearly realized this at this moment!
Call ~
Like surging flames, the [Life Essence Liquid], which even the entire realm of magic weapons could not obtain, lingered and occupied half of the sky.

Then Xu Xing threw the tattered Heaven-Cutting Sword upwards!
As the longsword plunged into it, it was as if a black hole had been thrown into the endless [Life Essence Liquid].

The vast [Life Essence Liquid] continuously surged towards the sword, being swallowed and absorbed by it...

Like a whale sucking in water, the fiery red [Life Essence Liquid] continuously collapsed inward, and the cracks, pits, and fine nicks on the sword body and blade were gradually repaired.

Metamorphosis!

The entire sword is undergoing a transformation!
Magic weapons can only be forged by using the spiritual materials of heaven and earth as materials and consuming the world's essence as fire.

At this moment, a magical weapon that is about to surpass the Nascent Soul level is about to appear in the world, and the foundation of the magical weapon world has not increased or decreased in the slightest.

Cultivate affinity, cultivate affinity...

The material used to elevate and transform this sword was precisely the material from Xu Xing's brief encounter with Su Jian!
Under the watchful eyes of all, less than a moment had passed!

The fiery [Life Essence Liquid] that hovered in the sky disappeared.

In its place was a long sword, its surface smooth and lustrous, like a piece of fine jade, with the words "Cut the Heavens" engraved on its spine.

The seven Golden Core cultivators, led by the True Person of the Void Realm, felt as if an unparalleled divine blade pressed against their foreheads, a chilling coldness penetrating to their very bones, freezing their bodies, souls, and magical power, rendering them completely immobile.

Gazing at the long sword hanging in the sky, Su Jian felt a sense of unease, raised his right hand towards the sky, and made a loose clenching motion.

hum~
The sword trembled slightly.

The soaring sword sounds pierced the sky like the roar of a dragon, stretching for hundreds of miles in an instant, seemingly endless.

The Heaven-Cutting Sword transformed into a bright red streak of light, trailing a long tail of flame like a meteor, and landed precisely in his loosely clenched right hand.

"...Thank you, senior."

It's a very simple sentence.

Saying more now would only seem hypocritical.

"Remember, do not do evil, do not bring harm to the world."

Xu Xing didn't actually have many demands on Su Jian, nor did he expect him to have the ambition to change the world like Jiang Lin.

If he has it, that would be the best outcome.

I won't force it if I don't have it.

He only hoped that the gift he gave him would not become a tool for the man to abuse his power and wreak havoc on the world.

Su Jian's heart tightened, and he solemnly said:
"Junior, remember this."

Xu Xing didn't say anything more and just disappeared.

Staring at the spot where he had just been standing, Su Jian stood there for a long time before turning to look at the Golden Core cultivator who was quietly retreating to the side.

"You go."

Eh?
Ok? !

The Golden Core cultivators, who were already prepared to beg for mercy and fight to the death, were stunned upon hearing this.

"The Lord of Judgment does not intend to kill us," the True Man of the Ruins suddenly said.

They originally called Su Jian 'Master of Cultivation'.

but now……

Compared to the Heaven-Cutting Sword, the Cultivation Furnace is nothing!

"Ah."

Although the True Man of the Void Realm and the True Man of the Evolution of Law had conflicts with him.

However, it must be acknowledged that, as the actual controllers behind the Xuyan Sect and the Great Xu Dynasty, these two True Immortals ensured that the tens of millions of people of the Great Xu Dynasty lived quite well under their rule.

At least we can survive.

In this day and age, just surviving is already a difficult task.

Moreover, during the most chaotic period of the past thirty years, it was because of their existence that the Great Ruins Dynasty did not completely collapse.

In terms of merit and achievement, they might even surpass me.

"But only this once." Merit...

My performance over the years has actually fallen far short of my seniors' expectations, hasn't it?
The Void Realm True Person wanted to say something more, but was pulled away by the Evolutionary Law True Person beside him, and transformed into a streak of light that disappeared into the horizon.

soon.

"The cultivation method is now being transmitted..."

A magnificent sound echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

……

……

Taixuan Realm.

Sword Sect, Inner Branch.

In front of the Sword Ancestor's Hall.

As the matter of the magic weapon realm came to an end, the light screen displaying the inner world of the world dissipated, transforming into two threads of celestial netting that hung down between reality and illusion.

Two thumb-sized spheres, one white and one purple, hung from the end of the silk thread.

It was the timeline of the magical weapon realm that Xu Xing sent back through the Immortal Network, along with the extraordinary elements extracted from it.

The gazes of all the immortals followed.

"Is this the world where all the extraordinary elements have been drained?" Meizu spoke first. "Its nature is truly quite peculiar."

The white sphere detached from the end of the fairy net and flew towards her.

However, halfway through its flight, it was intercepted by a hand that suddenly reached out.

Ok?
Meizu looked at Ning Ruo with displeasure.

"What are you doing!"

She then launched an attack on Ning Ruo with a seemingly legitimate reason.

"Are you even more skilled than me? Then why are you trying to steal from me!"

Chen Huan, who was about to say something, paused not far away.

In terms of cultivation level, she was the lowest among everyone present.

Hongzun keenly sensed Chenhuan's emotional change and patted her hand to comfort her.

You'll get used to this kind of thing once you spend more time chatting in the leader's group.

It should be noted that among everyone present, only Xu Xing had a higher cultivation level than Mei Zu, but apart from Chen Huan, no one cared about it.

It's still a lack of 'exercise'.

Ning Ruo was too lazy to pay attention to her and lightly touched the white ball of light floating in the air with her fingertips.

hum~
A circle of tiny, visible ripples appeared and slowly spread out.

Using this world, drained of its extraordinary elements, as a medium, inexplicable fluctuations directly transcended the existing level and began to spread towards all possibilities.

After a while, the tiny ripples subsided.

Ning Ruo shook her head slightly, before she could speak.

"I told you you're no good!"

Meizu grabbed the white sphere directly.

"Of course, this kind of thing should be done by your concubine, who has a higher level of cultivation!"

Half a minute later.

The timeline of the Magical Weapon Realm arrived before Yuanjun.

however……

Even the true immortals who were in charge of the Way of Cause and Effect could not find anything unusual.

And so, it soon fell into the hands of Chen Huan, the newly promoted True Immortal.

The Tai Xuan Realm is still perfecting itself through the Star Path of the Mortal World. Perhaps it can trace and lock onto some clues?

Unfortunately, there was still no success.

After that, Hongzun, Danzu, Bazun, and Qizun tried it one by one, but none of them found anything unusual.

Ultimately, the timeline of the Magic Weapon Realm, drained of its extraordinary elements, returned to Xu Xing's hands.

This time, there was finally a response.

As Xu Xing used it as a medium to trace back and lock onto the original intention of 'reason', the sword light penetrated to a certain level.

In the darkness, there was a wisp of gray mist, so subtle as to be almost imperceptible, that existed for less than a fraction of a second.

The gray mist's existence was quite strange, seemingly restricted by a power that had reached the level of an enlightened being... or rather, a level beyond that of an ordinary enlightened being, and was on par with Xu Xing's current level.

Even Xu Xing failed to capture it.

Further investigation was conducted, but no matter what they did, they were unable to bring the gray fog back.

"It seems there was indeed something wrong with Tai's fall in that battle back then," Xu Xing said in a deep voice. "I will continue to try until I find out the truth behind it."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

My mindset didn't become pessimistic because of this incident.

If we could have won back then, even if Tai hadn't completely fallen, it would just be another chance.

Just as this matter has reached a conclusion at this stage.

"By the way, hasn't Sword Master tried it yet?" Meizu suddenly said.

Bie Xuening raised an eyebrow.

She wouldn't try it; she's not good at those things.

……

……

The sealed-off Qingxu.

core zone.

It is a peculiar realm that ordinary people, and even enlightened immortals, cannot access, existing between existence and non-existence.

Only the hazy air currents drifted freely, mixed with the formless and intangible, profound Dao principles that exist between all things.

But as a ray of red light pierced through, an extremely subtle wisp of misty air leaked out.

Although the red light quickly disappeared, its appearance seemed to have disrupted the balance here. In the formless and intangible Tai Xuan Dao principles, a constantly changing chaotic mist appeared in the hazy airflow.

A low laugh, a mixture of joy and sorrow, echoed amidst madness and a sense of liberation:

"I knew it... I knew it!" (End of Chapter)
