Creation of the Universe

Shen Zhan and Wang Tonghai looked at each other. Each of them had too many reasons to kill the other.

Having just obtained the Qingming Sword Intent and with the ninth-grade sword in his hand that had completed its transformation, Shen Zhan's confidence increased greatly and his fighting spirit was high.

But after calming down and thinking about it, he still had to assess the current situation. Even if he didn't count the Xuanjin Sect leader who was concentrating on forging the sword blank, Wang Tonghai and Baili Yu still had an absolute advantage over him.

It seems that I can't just keep trying to be tough, Shen Zhan secretly reminded himself.

Unexpectedly, Baili Yu suddenly turned around and stared at the other side, only to see three figures appear in his sight, namely Dong Ping, Xia Wenxiu and Tang Muqing, disciples of Wuya Taoist Academy.

Shen Zhan gradually frowned. Didn’t he tell them to find a chance to leave here?

Xia Wenxiu looked at Shen Zhan and said firmly, "Master Shen, the three of us are here to take back the Ruoshui Sword. Since Baili Yu is here, we can't leave.

But don't worry, we won't hold you back later."

Baili Yu sneered, "How dare you three say such shameless words? If it weren't for Ding Yi and this brat protecting you, I would have hung your heads on the Black Peak Tower!"

"Hmph, Baili Yu, you only managed to sneak attack Master Ding Yi using despicable means, and that's how you managed to win. Today we must avenge Master Ding Yi!"

Dong Ping drew his sword and took the lead in attacking Baili Yu.

Shen Zhan could feel their strong desire to avenge Ding Yi, so he stopped talking and focused on dealing with Wang Tonghai who was standing in front of him.

"Come on, you got away last time, you won't be so lucky today."

Shen Zhan pointed at Wang Tonghai, who waved the Juque sword in his hand and attacked without saying a word.

Everyone instantly engaged in a fight, but the leader of Xuanjinmen was the only one who was still using all his strength to complete the last and most crucial step of forging the sword in the giant cauldron.

As the ethereal sound of sword continued to come out from the giant cauldron, the sword that had been forged for a long time was finally about to come into the world, and the entire sword ruins was suddenly filled with evil spirits and howling winds.

Those were the unwilling cries of tens of thousands of broken swords abandoned here. Although they were all swords, they were treated very differently, so they did not want to see this sword come into the world.

The evil energy surged towards the giant bronze tripod in waves, interrupting the battle between Shen Zhan and the others.

Sect Leader Meng, who was hanging the golden gate, shouted, "Using spirit to nurture spirit, and using sword to forge sword, we are finally going to accomplish our goal!"

He opened his arms with joy and laughed out loud towards the sky.

At this moment, Shen Zhan suddenly realized that Wang Tonghai and Baili Yu had used two sixth-grade famous swords not to suppress the evil spirit, but to suppress the evil spirit at the bottom of the Sword Ruins Valley, so that the bronze tripod could absorb the evil spirit at the last moment of sword forging.

"What you forged is actually an evil sword!"

Sect Leader Meng bluntly stated, "The highest level of sword forged by human power is only seventh-grade. My lifelong wish is to forge a ninth-grade sword myself, one that is even more powerful than the one you hold. Now that this goal is finally coming true, you can't stop me!"

A steady stream of evil energy was sucked into the giant bronze cauldron, becoming the source of power for this evil sword. Shen Zhan could not stand idly by, so he decisively cut his palm with the sword tip and slashed the sword energy carrying Tianchen's holy blood towards the giant bronze cauldron.

Sect Leader Meng immediately picked up the Qiu Cang Sword to resist, but the evil spirit in the giant cauldron was still entangled on the sword embryo, but the next moment it seemed to sense the existence of the Tianchen Holy Blood and began to rush towards Shen Zhan.

"What, what's going on?"

"The evil spirit was actually taken away!"

Under the astonished gaze of Sect Master Meng, the evil energy of the sword ruins poured into the sword in Shen Zhan's hand, and the golden sound originally emitted from the giant bronze tripod also stopped abruptly at this moment.

"Impossible! What on earth have you done? I was only one step away from success! You've ruined my plans!"

Sect Leader Meng's anger was about to burst, and he rushed towards Shen Zhan frantically.

Shen Zhan originally just wanted to interrupt the forging of the evil sword, but he did not expect this result. After the evil spirit was completely absorbed by the sword, this power surged restlessly, and it seemed that it would escape from Shen Zhan's hands at any moment.

In order to control the sword, Shen Zhan changed to holding it with both hands and slashed towards Master Meng and Wang Tonghai in front of him.

When he swung the sword, the mountains and the earth in the sword ruins shook, and layers of white clouds appeared on the originally green sword, flowing gracefully.

"This cloud-patterned sword blade... could it be the long-lost Flowing Cloud Sword?"

Sect Leader Meng, who had been dealing with swords all his life, suddenly called out the name of the sword Shen Zhan at this moment, but he was immediately swallowed by the sword energy of the Liuyun Sword, and the huge bronze tripod behind him was also destroyed by the sword energy and shattered into pieces, and he could no longer continue to forge swords.

After swinging the sword, Shen Zhan was gasping for breath and had to use his sword to support himself on the ground to avoid falling down.

"Liuyun Sword... I didn't expect that just swinging this sword would consume so much of my spiritual power. I really can't use it carelessly from now on."

When Shen Zhan swung this last sword, Wang Tonghai and Sect Leader Wang disappeared, and it was uncertain whether they were dead or alive.

He successfully broke the huge bronze tripod, thus achieving his original goal. Not far behind him, Dong Ping and the other two worked together to repel Baili Yu, and the Ruoshui sword also fell into Tang Muqing's hands.

"Are you three okay?"

Tang Muqing happily replied, "It's okay. Although he was injured, we managed to drive Baili Yu away and retrieve the Ruoshui Sword. Now we can go back and report the good news to Master Ding Yi!"

"Well, that's best. Let's get out of here without further ado."

Since all the evil spirits were absorbed by the Liuyun Sword, the process of returning was much calmer than the coming process. The bottom of the Jianxu Valley was no longer ravaged by the evil spirits, but it seemed as if the soul of this place had been taken away.

Arriving at a safe place, Shen Zhan told the three, "You all performed brilliantly in today's battle. Even if the Weihai royal family denies it later, the world will know that it was the disciples of Wuya Daoyuan who won in the end. You are the winners of this trial meeting."

"Mr. Shen, why do I feel nervous when I hear you say that? Are you planning to leave us?"

Tang Muqing looked at Shen Zhan worriedly and asked.

"That's right, I must leave as soon as possible. This time, not only did I ruin Xuan Jinmen's plan, but I also killed the Prince of Weihai. This will definitely attract a large number of enemies to hunt me down. You can't stay with me anymore."

Xia Wenxiu said, "I understand. It would be easier for you to shake off the pursuers if you act alone. Unfortunately, the New Year is coming in a few days. I originally wanted to invite you to visit us at Cuiping Mountain..."

Tang Muqing and Dong Ping both felt a sense of regret.
