Their hands continuously ford spells, injecting vast Divinity Transformation Mana into the array, simultaneously suppressing the Celestial Torture Child’s resistance and sustaining the operation of this eerie transmutation array.
"Roar!"
The Celestial Torture Child let out an extrely venomous roar, his scarlet vertical pupils fixed fiercely on the Dual Saints.
He could feel that the power he painstakingly restored, even the essence of being an ancient demon, was being stripped away bit by bit!
However, no matter how he cursed and struggled, the Star King and Moon God remained with eyes closed, ditating, their expressions as calm as a still lake, unmoved in the slightest.
As ti slowly passed, the Celestial Torture Child could feel weakness surging in like a tide, and the originally turbulent Demonic Qi beca sluggish.
Fear, for the first ti, clearly surfaced in his pupils.
He seed to understand the true intentions of the Star Palace Saints.
The Dual Saints wanted to refine his bloodline and transform themselves into ancient demons.
The Celestial Torture Child, as if grasping for a lifeline, hurriedly shouted, "It’s useless. By forcibly extracting and transforming like this, at most you can only beco half-demons, never true ancient demons."
"Let go! As long as you release , I am willing to tell you the true secret technique to safely transform into pureblood ancient demons! The true heritage of the Holy Race."
However, faced with this enormous temptation, the Star King and Moon God remained like two stone statues, without even the slightest flutter of their eyelids.
Their silence was more despair-inducing than any refusal.
The Celestial Torture Child’s aura and struggles grew weaker and weaker.
...
Ti flies like an arrow; the sun and moon shuttle by.
In the rare stillness and recuperation of forces in the outer sea, ten years slipped by quietly.
The large-scale war between the Star Palace and the outer sea alliance ceased, with even skirmishes scarcely seen.
The major forces of the outer sea licked their wounds quietly, restoring their Primordial Qi, and training their disciples.
Blood Bone Island, underground cave abode.
Xu Ping, holding the Canghua Divine Wood Sword, stood like a mountain, slowly dancing with the sword.
He did not use any Mana, nor did he trigger any blood and Qi, his movents appeared unremarkable, yet with each sword move, the tip seed to draw invisible threads, resonating mysteriously with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around.
Since the Canghua Divine Wood Sword awakened its Artifact Spirit, its spiritual nature had greatly enhanced, synchronized with Xu Ping’s mind.
Practicing with this sword not only allowed him to perceive subtle changes in the sword moves more clearly but also to gain deeper insights into the "Sword Intent Formation" with the help of the Artifact Spirit.
Xu Ping was imrsed in the world of Sword Dao, forgetting himself and the world.
Though he didn’t activate Mana, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the entire cave abode were unconsciously drawn by his sword dance, converging towards him like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, forming a dense area of Spiritual Qi around him.
It was unclear how much ti had passed.
Xu Ping’s movents gradually ca to a stop, the final act of sheathing the sword seed to draw all the omnipresent Sword Qi into his body.
The rich Spiritual Qi that had been drawn in also dissipated with the gathering of his montum, slowly returning to calm as if losing its core.
With a slight thought, Xu Ping naturally brought up the skill panel:
[Sword Intent Formation (First Turn) Minor Achievent: 678/800]
"Not bad progress."
Looking at the clear data on the panel, a faint smile appeared on Xu Ping’s lips.
These ten years of concentrated comprehension, especially with the assistance of the Artifact Spirit and insights from the Divinity Transformation Divine Sense, had deepened his understanding of Sword Montum.
"At this pace, it should take another twenty to thirty years to break through to the Great Success Realm!"
"By then, the power of my swordsmanship should experience a surge."
"Even up against the Star Palace Saints, I reckon I’ll stand a fighting chance."
Xu Ping estimated in his heart, filled with anticipation.
One must know, the Star Palace Saints were nearly the pinnacle of the mortal world, and he was not far from this step.
"Almost there!"
Xu Ping suppressed the anticipation in his heart, about to sheath the Canghua Divine Wood Sword and prepare for a brief ditation when—
A sudden change erupted!
The ’Profound Celestial Embryo’, which had been quietly planted beside the Spiritual Pool, gently absorbing Spiritual Qi, trembled lightly without warning at this mont.
A faint yet ancient, majestic aura, seeming to touch the world’s source, flickered briefly from the embryo.
Then an invisible Dao resonance instantly shrouded the entire underground cave abode.
The air within the cave abode seed to solidify, ti seed to slow, and all the restriction glows dimd in the face of this Dao resonance, becoming ta and silent.
"Hmm?!"
Xu Ping’s expression suddenly tensed, his eyes bursting with brilliance, instantly capturing all his attention!
"The Profound Celestial Embryo... has changed again?"
"This feeling... this sudden baptism of Dao resonance... why does it resemble exactly the situation when it forcibly plundered so of the Star Palace Saints’ fortune in the outer sea before?"
"Is it happening again?"
"Has it unknowingly seized so massive fortune again?"
Xu Ping’s mind raced with countless thoughts, filled with bewildernt and uncertainty.
He had long experienced the miraculous and "thieving" nature of the Profound Celestial Embryo, but to find it occurring repeatedly, was it the embryo’s inherent need?
However, this was clearly not the ti to delve into these matters.
The vast and mighty Dao resonance had already completely enveloped him.
Like warm amniotic fluid within a mother’s body, or dew containing the ultimate truths of heaven and earth, it pervaded every part of his body, his ridians, Dantian, Sea of Consciousness, and soul!
Opportunities like this are rare, fleeting!
In a flash, Xu Ping materialized beside the Profound Celestial Embryo.
He no longer resisted but completely opened his mind, guiding his entire being to actively embrace the all-pervasive baptism of Dao resonance.
