Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Upon seeing the three Sword Intent Grasses, Jian Wuchen, the peak master of Tianquan Peak, immediately recognized them.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhenxing, the peak master of Tian Shu Peak, couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face and said:

"This is no ordinary sword intent grass, but a top-grade sword intent grass without any attributes."

In other words, regardless of what sword intent one comprehends, one can directly improve their sword intent level by refining the sword intent grass in my hand.

Moreover, my Sword Intent Grass can elevate a person's sword intent from the Great Completion to Perfection.

Furthermore, if all three Sword Intent Grasses are refined together, it's even possible for the perfected Sword Intent to evolve, transforming into a more advanced Sword Soul!

"Sword Soul!"

Upon hearing these two words, the other peak masters were all moved.

It should be understood that transforming a lifeless sword intent into a sword soul with living qualities is an act against the heavens.

Sword intent and sword soul, although only one level apart, are fundamentally worlds apart.

The value of a sword spirit lies not only in its strength.

Moreover, the sword soul is equivalent to a sword cultivator's second soul.

In other words, even if a sword cultivator's physical body perishes and their soul dies, as long as their sword spirit remains, they can still be reborn, which is equivalent to having an extra life.

Even more extreme, some can separate the sword spirit and then create a body for it, thus creating a sword spirit clone.

The effects of the sword soul clone are even more wonderful.

This shows just how powerful the Sword Soul is.

Therefore, raising sword intent to the level of sword soul is even more difficult than breaking through from the Martial King realm to the Martial Emperor realm.

Even among the seven peak masters present, who are all top sword masters on the Azure Cloud Continent, only one or two have condensed their own sword souls.

Therefore, when they heard Yu Zhenxing say that his Sword Intent Grass might transform sword intent into a sword soul, the eyes of the other peak masters almost turned red.

However, seeing how excited the peak masters were, Yu Zhenxing offered an explanation:

"Everyone, please don't get too excited."

What I meant by "possibly" was that refining these three top-tier sword intent herbs could increase the probability of sword intent transforming into a sword soul by 10%!

Even if it's only one-tenth, it's still a rare treasure!

Jian Wuchen, the peak master of Tianquan Peak, stared at the Sword Intent Grass in Yu Zhenxing's hand with his eyes shining.

Then, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and another treasure appeared.

This treasure looks rather strange. It resembles a sword, but its surface is pitted and dull, and the blade has no sharpness whatsoever.

At first glance, it looks like a piece of trash.

Of course, the treasures that Jian Wuchen, the dignified peak master of Tianquan Peak, brought out were certainly not trash.

He looked proud, and his tone was full of confidence.

"This item was obtained by me from the ruins of the ancient Sword Sect."

It is called the Innate Sword Embryo, which was formed over tens of thousands of years by the condensation of the sword energy of tens of thousands of swords after the death of all the sword cultivators of the ancient sword sect.

If it is used as a sword blank to forge a precious sword, then the final sword will not be limited by the level of the treasure, and will possess the characteristic of growth and evolution, eventually growing into a weapon of an emperor!

"The Emperor's Weapon!"

Another gasp of cold air followed.

The weapon of the Great Emperor is equivalent to that of a Martial Emperor, and is countless times more powerful than a Sacred Artifact.

There are only a handful of them in the entire Qingyun Continent.

Although this sword embryo itself is not a weapon of an emperor, it only has the potential to grow into one.

To truly become a soldier of the emperor, one must dedicate countless efforts and undergo unimaginable trials.

However, this possibility alone was enough to make all the peak masters present tremble.

Such a treasure would tempt not only the peak masters who are Martial Emperors, but also the powerful Martial Saints and peerless Martial Emperors.

In fact, Jian Wuchen originally wanted to keep this innate sword embryo and reforge his own natal spirit sword.

However, his own natal spirit sword was already a mid-grade sacred artifact.

If we were to abandon this innate sword embryo and start over, transforming it into a mid-grade sacred artifact-level natal spirit sword would require an unknown amount of effort and time.

Therefore, Jian Wuchen has been hesitant to take action.

Just now, after seeing Li Wujiang, the peak master of Tianji Peak, and Yu Zhenxing, the peak master of Tianshu Peak, take out rare treasures such as Gengjin Stone and top-grade sword intent grass respectively.

Jian Wuchen finally couldn't resist and took out his treasured innate sword embryo as a wager.

Because the Gengjin Stone is enough to upgrade Jian Wuchen's natal spirit sword from a mid-grade sacred artifact to a more powerful high-grade sacred artifact.

Although there is only a one-word difference between a superior-grade sacred artifact and a mid-grade sacred artifact, their power is vastly different.

Generally speaking, those who possess high-grade sacred artifacts on the Azure Cloud Continent are all powerful figures at the Martial Saint realm.

As for the top-grade Sword Intent Grass, it goes without saying that it can increase the probability of giving birth to a sword soul, which is an unimaginable temptation for Jian Wuchen.

When Jian Wuchen took out the innate sword embryo, Li Wujiang's face was beaming with joy.

"Unexpectedly, a whim idea actually brought out rare treasures such as top-grade attribute-less sword intent grass and innate sword embryo."

It seems these people are all incredibly wealthy and keeping a low profile!

Li Wujiang glanced around, his gaze settling on the remaining four peak masters who hadn't yet participated in the betting, and said:

"Four peak masters, are you interested in participating in this high-stakes gamble?"

Upon hearing Li Wujiang's words, the remaining four peak masters immediately snapped out of their shock.

Immediately afterwards, the gentle and melodious voice of Shen Yujun, the peak master of Yuheng Peak, rang out first.

"I'm really tempted by these three treasures, but unfortunately I don't have any that I can offer, so I can only be a spectator!"

As Shen Yujun spoke, there was a clear look of regret in her eyes.

As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Zongheng, the peak master of Yaoguang Peak, also spoke up.

"I'm also short on cash, so I can only watch you guys gamble big, haha!"

As Wu Zongheng spoke, he laughed self-deprecatingly.

Wu Zongheng's slightly chubby face gave him a kind of honest and simple appearance, and his aura was completely restrained, making him seem nothing like a cultivator.

At first glance, he looks like an honest, simple farmer.

Of course, the dignified peak master of Yaoguang Peak of Qingyun Sword Sect could not possibly be truly honest and simple.

All I can say is that this is a peak master who likes to play dumb to take advantage of others.

Whether his earlier claim of being short of money was true or false, only he himself knows.

Even Shen Yujun just now was the same. As the peak master of Yuheng Peak of Qingyun Sword Sect, how could he not have some powerful treasures? It was just an excuse because he was cautious and didn't want to participate in this high-stakes gamble.

After Shen Yujun and Wu Zongheng said this, Yu Feixuan, the next peak master of Tianxuan Peak, also began to consider withdrawing from this high-stakes gamble.

However, just as she was about to speak, he suddenly remembered that the person Li Wujiang had gambled on was Chu Yunfan.

"Since he is Wan'er's beloved, he must be more than he appears on the surface."

Furthermore, the fact that Li Wujiang didn't use Xiao Yi of Tianji Peak as a gamble, but instead used him to start this high-stakes bet, shows that he must have extraordinary abilities.

In this light, the gamble was worthwhile.

However, the way this bet is being wagered needs to be changed slightly.

Otherwise, the odds of Wujiang winning would be far too low!
