The cheat system is useless, but I have the strongest living dad.

The further you go into the barren mountains, the higher the air pressure becomes, and the more numerous and sharper the pebbles become.

Under this pressure, Shen Yao's cultivation of the Divine Body Tempering Technique progressed rapidly, reaching the intermediate level.

With her current physique, she could easily withstand an attack from a high-grade immortal saint.

But climbing this barren mountain is not enough!

Even though the mountaintop was right in front of her, she found it difficult to climb even with both hands and feet.

Pieces of rock struck her body one after another. When she tried to use her spiritual shield to block them, even more rocks came and struck her faster.

Using her spiritual power was not an option, and she couldn't climb up using her physical strength either, which made Shen Yao quite annoyed!

Enraged, she pounded the rocks and yelled, "What the hell is up there? If you don't let me up, I'll blow this mountain up!"

The rubble slowed for a moment, followed by a tremendous shaking as boulders rolled down the mountainside.

"Damn it!" Shen Yao turned and ran towards the mountainside. The boulders rolled and rolled, turning into quicksand. The quicksand came on strong and quickly caught up with her, burying her in the sand.

Inside the semi-circular golden spirit shield, Shen Yao felt a wave of fear. Fortunately, the shield was placed in time, otherwise, she, a dignified immortal, would have been suffocated by the quicksand, and she didn't even know how thick the quicksand was!

Looking up through the light of the Golden Spirit Shield, all that could be seen was a dense mass of quicksand. As soon as the shield was withdrawn, the quicksand would instantly press down.

Shen Yao released six spirit blades, which gathered together and spiraled in front of her.

"It's all up to you now." As Shen Yao withdrew the Golden Spirit Shield, she used the Spiral Flying Blade to clear a path and charged out of the quicksand.

The quicksand was indeed very thick.

As soon as she emerged from behind the spiraling blade, a fierce wind began to blow again on the mountain road, blowing sand into her eyes as if trying to force her back into the quicksand.

Shen Yao closed her eyes tightly and flew towards the mountaintop following her memory. The wind was howling fiercely, making her flight extremely difficult.

She calculated the speed and distance, and when she felt she was about to fly back to the previous spot and could no longer fly, she took a gamble and landed on the ground.

As soon as the spiritual energy was withdrawn, the sandstorm stopped.

Shen Yao opened her eyes and saw that they were still halfway up the mountain.

Seriously! I should have known better than to curse, now I have to climb all the way up again!

……

Street of Wrongful Deaths.

The Painted Fan Gentleman: "They're fighting again?"

Huo Die: "Hmm, Feng Yu won't listen to advice."

Ever since he discovered that knocking Feng Yu unconscious worked, Hu Yawu would resort to brute force to knock him out whenever Feng Yu refused to listen to his advice.

After a while, his cold hands stopped working.

Feng Yu always managed to defend himself and then directly engage in a fight with him.

Hu Yawu loves fighting the most. Although his opponent is only a Celestial Saint, he is still a high-grade Celestial Saint. He also has a lot of magical treasures to use, so the fight is quite interesting.

When Hu Yawu was bored, he could fight with Feng Yu four or five times a day.

The Painter of Fans said, "Feng Yu is fast, but his momentum is too weak."

Huo Die: "He's a Celestial Saint, so he'll build up his momentum with more practice. At least he's clever enough that once he's used a move, you can't hit him again."

The Painted Fan Gentleman: "Oh, so you're protecting your son-in-law now."

Huo Die: "Heh, I'm not protecting you, I'm just stating the facts."

……

Shen Yao finally reached the top of the mountain.

She has almost mastered the divine-level body tempering technique.

There is only one tomb on the mountaintop.

The tombstone is vertically inscribed with the words: "Tomb of the Goddess Ningyao".

A long, black-handled sword hangs above the tomb. Its blade is sharp and clean, clearly a fine weapon.

Shen Yao stood in front of the tomb, looking at the words on the tombstone: Ningyao Goddess.

It turned out to be the tomb of a deity.

Out of respect for the dead, Shen Yao took out a bottle of wine from her storage ring, poured it on the ground, and kowtowed three times: "Your Majesty, I am Shen Yao. I came here by chance. If I have disturbed you, please forgive me."

After she finished bowing, she stood up and looked at the precious sword, hesitating whether to take it away.

Having come all this way through hardships, it would be a shame not to take it. Besides, the deity is dead, and leaving the precious sword here would be a waste.

Having convinced herself, Shen Yao leaped forward and retrieved the knife.

The moment her hand touched the hilt of the sword, several bolts of lightning struck her hand. Shen Yao was forced back by the lightning, which struck the long sword, causing sparks to explode. Two large black characters appeared on the front of the sword: Godslayer.

Godslayer? Could that be the name of this sword?

A dark shadow flew out of the tombstone; the shadow resembled a ghost.

The shadowy figure said, "Want to take the knife? You'll need to use your divine sense."

Spiritual consciousness?

Shen Yao is merely a celestial being, without divine consciousness.

She tried to use her spiritual senses to retrieve the knife.

The spiritual sense dodged the lightning attack, and when it touched the hilt of the sword, the words "Lightning" and "Godslayer" disappeared, the long sword trembled, and the blade made a clanging sound.

Shen Yao felt a resonance between the long sword and her spiritual consciousness. Without hesitation, she flew up, grabbed the hilt, and took the precious sword.

She felt an extremely comfortable connection with the knife, and gripped it, slashing down at the mountainside.

The sword intent stretched for hundreds of miles, cleaving a huge crack in the barren mountain!

"It really is a fine knife!" Shen Yao couldn't help but exclaim.

The shadowy figure: "You called its name."

Shen Yao tentatively called out, "Slay the God?"

The God-Slaying Blade trembled in response: "Bin... Buzzing..."

Shen Yao's eyes lit up: "It has a sword spirit?"

The shadowy figure: "Of course."

Shen Yao: "Where is its scabbard?"

"The scabbard is me." The shadowy figure flew toward the blade, and upon contact with it, transformed into a scabbard no weaker than the blade itself.

The gold patterns on the scabbard flowed, and the dark patterns surged.

Shen Yao was overjoyed. What a fine knife! Not only did it have a spirit, but even the scabbard had come to life!

Shen Yao drew the knife, and the scabbard immediately transformed into a black shadow in her hand and flew out.

Shen Yao didn't know any sword techniques, so she practiced the God-Slaying Blade using the sword style.

"Cool!"

"carefree!"

This God-Slaying Blade suits her perfectly, as if it were custom-made for her!

Shen Yao became more and more excited as she danced, her swordplay was so sharp and skillful, it was truly a fine sword!

She slashed towards the other side of the mountain, unleashing the power of the God-Slaying Blade, while the spirit of the sheath also transformed into a black blade and attacked...

The barren mountains were awe-inspiring! The earth cracked for hundreds of miles!

There are even combo attacks!

The black sword flew back and transformed into a spirit within its sheath.

Shen Yao asked it, "What's your name?"

Sheath Spirit: "My name is Guardian Spirit."

Protect the gods, slay the gods! Offense and defense in one!

Sheath Spirit: "Your abilities have deteriorated considerably."

It's degenerated? This combo attack caused the earth to crack for hundreds of miles. Is that what you call degeneration?

Shen Yao: "What does this mean? Do you know me?"

The spirit replied irrelevantly, "You must have reincarnated many times."

Shen Yao nodded: "Yes, as far as I know, at least three times."

Sheath Spirit: "That's right. Take us out. Having only a sword isn't enough. We also need to find the Thirteen Styles of Sword Intent."

"Only by mastering the Thirteen Forms of Sword Intent can the God-Slaying Blade slay gods."

Shen Yao: "You still haven't answered me. Did you know me before?"

"Yes, I recognize you. You are the Divine Venerable Ningyao." The sheath spirit attached itself to the blade and transformed into a sheath: "Let's go. Don't call me unless necessary. When you regain your divine status, I will definitely come out with the God-Slaying Blade."

It turns out that I am the Goddess Ningyao, and this is actually her tomb from one of her past lives!

I feel incredibly powerful. Could it be that in this lifetime, I might even have the chance to cultivate myself into a god?

I can't wait! How exciting!

Shen Yao: "How do I get out?"

Sheath Spirit ignored her.

Shen Yao: "Should I go back the way I came?"

It seems he really won't talk to her anymore.

Shen Yao tried using her spiritual energy to take off. This time, there was no strong wind. She gripped the God-Slaying Blade tightly and flew back the way she came...
