Li Suwang coughed up a mouthful of blood, which sprayed into the air like raindrops.

Chapter 82: The Divine Stone That Remains Unmelted for Fifty Years, Emperor Tai'an Falls Seriously Ill
Yu Tian quietly watched Li Suwang vomiting blood before her, a slight smile playing on her lips, her voice as calm as a clear spring, flowing gently through the air:
"Sword Master Li, do you want to continue the competition?"
Li Suwang stared at Yu Tian's relaxed and carefree appearance, secretly speculating that this Demon Sword Immortal must still be hiding most of his strength.
Thinking that he had even used his ultimate move, yet still lost so easily, he couldn't help but feel frustrated and sighed:
"You truly deserve the title of the greatest swordsman in the world! I know I am no match for you, so there is no need for further combat."
As Li Suwang finished speaking, the disciples of Jianxin Tomb outside the arena were somewhat surprised to hear that their sword master had voluntarily admitted defeat, but they also felt that this was somewhat expected.
After all, the person in front of him is the infamous Demon Sword Immortal!
Upon hearing Li Suwang admit defeat, Yu Tian smiled slightly, smoothly sheathed his sword, and landed steadily on the ground like a graceful swallow.
Seeing this, Li Suwang put the Four Elegant Swords back on his back, stepped towards the rain, and wore a gentle smile on his face, as warm and kind as the spring sun.
"I wonder what the Demon Sword Immortal intends to borrow from our Sword Heart Tomb this time?"
Looking at Li Suwang's smiling face, Yu Tian smiled slightly and, without keeping him in suspense, said in a calm tone:
"I've heard that the Sword Heart Tomb contains many rare stones and iron used for forging swords. I wonder if Sword Master Li could take me there to see them?"
Upon hearing Yu Tian's words, Li Suwang immediately understood Yu Tian's purpose in coming here. It was obvious that Yu Tian wanted to take advantage of him!
But he was helpless; after all, he had lost!
So he readily replied, "Of course! Come on, I'll take you to the treasure vault right now. If you like anything there, feel free to take it."
After saying that, Li Suwang "880" led Yu Tian directly towards the treasure vault.
Seeing this, Yu Tian immediately waved to Ye Dingzhi, Yue Yao, and the others, signaling them to follow.
Then, without hesitation, he followed closely behind Li Suwang and they walked together toward the treasure vault.
After about half a cup of tea's time, Yu Tian and the others, led by Li Suwang, finally arrived at the place where the strange stones and iron were stored.
Li Suwang arrived at the gate, his expression solemn as he took out the Four Elegant Swords once more, carefully inserting them into the checkpoints on the iron gate, and then slowly turning the hilts.
As the four elegant swords spun, the iron gate of the treasure vault opened slowly with a heavy thud.
Li Suwang stood at the door, his sharp gaze fixed on the inside of the treasure vault, seemingly checking for any unusual circumstances.
After confirming that everything was safe, he turned to the rain and said:
"Demon Sword Immortal, this is the treasure trove where we store sword-forging materials in the Sword Heart Tomb."
On a rainy day, he walked to the door and carefully observed the situation inside the treasure vault.
However, he did not feel the intense heat unique to the fire-attribute divine stone, and his heart sank.
He had hoped to find the divine stone he needed here, but it now seemed that the divine stone in Kenshinzukuri was not the type he required.
However, Yu Tian still held a glimmer of hope: perhaps King Li Su had not stored that divine stone in the treasure vault?
So, Yu Tian turned his head and looked at Li Suwang with a firm gaze, saying:
"Sword Master Li, I've heard that your Sword Heart Tomb possesses a divine stone. I wonder if this divine stone is also in this treasure vault?"
When Li Suwang heard Yu Tian mention the divine stone, he was startled and pondered to himself:
"Could it be that the true purpose of this Demon Sword Immortal's visit is for the Divine Stone?"
Thinking of how that peculiar divine stone had been stored in the Sword Heart Tomb for over fifty years, yet had never been melted down, he pondered briefly before replying:
"Our Sword Heart Tomb does indeed possess such a divine stone, but it is not stored here."
If the Demon Sword Immortal is interested in this divine stone, I can take you to see it later.
After listening to Li Suwang's words, Yu Tian nodded in agreement and said, "Okay! Let's explore this place first, and then go see the divine stone." Then, Li Suwang led Yu Tian and his group into the treasure vault.
Rainy Day did not demand excessively; he merely selected the meteorite iron and rare stones needed for forging the sword.
Li Suwang, who was originally prepared to bleed money, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yu Tian had only taken a few rare meteorites and strange stones.
After handing the selected materials to his four servants, Yu Tian turned to Li Suwang and said:
"Alright, Sword Master Li, I only need to borrow these items."
If I encounter similar materials again in the future, I will definitely send someone to return them to you.
Upon hearing Yu Tian's words, Li Suwang felt a pang of unease and couldn't help but think to himself:
"You'll only pay me back when you meet someone, which means you won't pay me back if you don't meet them! Bah, shameless brat."
But considering the current situation and his disadvantageous position, he could only shake his head helplessly and wave his hand dismissively, saying:
"No need, it's just a few materials."
I never intended to return the materials in the first place, but since Li Suwang has said so...
He naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony, so he smiled and thanked him, saying, "Then thank you very much, Sword Master Li."
Then he added, "Now that I've seen the treasure vault, I'd like to trouble Sword Master Li to take me to see that divine stone!"
Just as Li Suwang closed the door to the treasure vault, he heard Yutian's words and sighed inwardly. Thinking that he would see it sooner or later anyway, he answered without hesitation:
“No problem! Since you’re so interested in the divine stone, I’ll take you to see it.”
After saying that, he led Yutian directly towards the back mountain.
About half an hour later, Yu Tian, led by Li Suwang, arrived at a natural volcanic crater.
Above the crater is a casting platform, on which sits a strange, smooth, and translucent black stone the size of a human head.
Li Suwang pointed towards the crater and said, "Demon Sword Immortal, that peculiar black stone is the divine stone that our Sword Heart Tomb possesses."
This divine stone has been stored here for nearly fifty years, yet it remains exactly the same as it was fifty years ago, without any change.
Upon hearing Li Suwang's words, Yueyao's eyes widened instantly, her mouth slightly agape, and she exclaimed in surprise:
"How is that possible? How could there be something in this world that even the fire of the earth cannot melt?" She looked at Li Suwang in disbelief, as if she wondered if he was joking.
Ye Dingzhi was no exception; he was equally shocked and skeptical after hearing Li Suwang's words.
He frowned and asked doubtfully, "I've traveled all over the country for over ten years and I've never heard of such a hard stone. Sword Master Li, are you trying to scare my senior brother?"
His eyes revealed a hint of distrust, yet he also seemed to hope for a reasonable explanation.
When Li Suwang heard what the two said, he was neither angry nor blamed them.
He understood their surprise and skepticism, because even he himself would have found it hard to believe if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
He smiled slightly and explained, "Haha! Everything I said is verifiable."
Even if I were to lie to you, I wouldn't be foolish enough to fabricate something so absurd to deceive you!
His tone was relaxed and sincere, trying to make them understand that what he said was true.
After listening to Li Suwang's explanation, Yueyao and Ye Dingzhi thought about it carefully and felt that what he said made sense.
Such an absurd thing, if it didn't actually happen, who would bring it up to fool people?
So they quickly apologized:
"I apologize, Sword Master Li, we were ignorant and misunderstood you."
They realized their recklessness and apologized.
Upon hearing this, Li Suwang smiled again, waved his hand, and said, "It's alright."
He didn't care about their misunderstandings; he just wanted to let them know more about the truth about that strange stone.
While the three were talking, Yu Tian kept his eyes fixed on the peculiar black divine stone.
He had just heard Li Suwang say that the smelting process hadn't changed at all after fifty years, which piqued his interest.
Then he looked at Li Suwang beside him with a smile and said, "This divine stone is interesting!"
To be honest, Master Li, I am also a swordsmith.
Therefore, I wish to stay at the Sword Heart Tomb to study this divine stone. I wonder if Sword Master Li could do me a favor?
When Li Suwang heard Yu Tian say that he was also a swordsmith, he was shocked for a moment, and then he heard that Yu Tian wanted to stay.
My heart skipped a beat, but I still responded with feigned kindness:
"You're very welcome! I'll have someone arrange accommodations for you right away."

Time flies like an arrow, and seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a major event occurred in the imperial palace of Tianqi City.
Since Zhu Qing started feeding Emperor Tai'an tonics, Emperor Tai'an's health has not improved. Instead, he looks older and older every day, as if his life force is constantly slipping away.
Just moments ago, Emperor Tai'an had finished his morning court session and hadn't even had a chance to return to the Golden Palace when he suddenly collapsed on the road.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Qing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of joy, but he quickly regained his composure.
He shouted loudly, "His Majesty has fainted! Someone come quickly! Summon the imperial physician!"
