Moreover, this was just the initial power of the Cyan Nether Immortal Sword. If it absorbed enough Demon Pearls, Geng tal Crystals, and Li Fire Crystals, and gradually grew, its power might multiply many tis over! Even now, it can devastate mountains and cities with a single strike. If it were to mature fully...
Lin Xuankong was amazed. Gripping the sword hilt, he looked at Xiao Xiuyi and said, "This Cyan Nether Immortal Sword is an incredibly powerful weapon, far beyond my imagination. Without your help, Miss Xiao, I probably would never have obtained such a terrifying, evolving Immortal Artifact in this lifeti! I, Lin Xuankong, will deeply rember your assistance in acquiring this Immortal Artifact. In the future, if you ever need any help, Miss Xiao, please feel free to tell . As long as it’s within my ability, I will not hesitate!"
Seeing his earnest expression, a smile touched the corners of Xiao Xiuyi’s lips. "Brother Lin, I will definitely rember these words! Now that you have this Immortal Sword, once your Cultivation Realm rises, you will surely be able to roam the world freely. When that ti cos, I might really need to ask for your help with sothing!"
Lin Xuankong nodded with a smile. "Don’t ntion just one thing; even ten would be fine!"
He looked down at the Cyan Nether Immortal Sword in his hand. "I just used the Immortal Sword for about one breath of ti in total. There are still two breaths of activation ti left. With these two breaths of activation ti, I feel like taking the Cyan Nether Immortal Sword to the Sealing Demon Mountain Range to slay a few Great Demons and indulge myself!"
Unfortunately, such a world-shaking Immortal Artifact will surely attract countless disputes and covetous gazes. After all, who wouldn’t want to possess such a terrifyingly powerful Immortal Artifact! Until I have truly grown strong, the fact that I possess this Immortal Sword must be kept secret. For now, we should leave this place! His eyes flashed as he looked into the distance. In thirty to forty breaths at most, this place will be crowded with Cultivators from all over the Great Marsh Prefecture!
Xiao Xiuyi frowned slightly. "I will quickly pack the important items in the cave, and then we can leave together, Brother Lin!"
After speaking, a trace of reluctance appeared in her eyes as she gazed at the serene scenery around Flying Dragon Slope. "Having lived here for several years, I’ve grown accustod to it. I’ve developed a fondness for every plant, every mountain, and every stream here. Leaving so suddenly... I do feel a bit reluctant!"
Hearing this, Lin Xuankong’s heart stirred, and a smile appeared on his face. "If Miss Xiao likes the scenery here, I know a place we can go. Once we’re there, I can recreate this scenery for you! Moreover, at that place, you can peacefully focus on the Artifact Refining Technique, free from disturbances by Demons or troubleso Cultivators!"
Xiao Xiuyi, who was packing her belongings, heard this and couldn’t help but smile. "Is there really such a tranquil place in this world? One without even the Demon Race?"
Lin Xuankong nodded slightly.
Then, stroking the Longsword in his hand, he gazed towards the distant Sealing Demon Mountain Range.
There, in the Sealing Demon Mountain Range, are Thick Earth ore veins, Geng tal Ore Veins, Thick Earth Spiritual Objects, and Geng tal Spiritual Objects. If I can obtain one of each kind, there will be no more obstacles to advancing my Cultivation Realm to the Seventh and Eighth Layers! These spiritual objects are crucial for !
There are also hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of tornted people treated as blood food. If I save them and let them cultivate and guard Spirit dicines in the Secret Realm, my future source of True Qi will beco increasingly abundant!
That place also has countless Demons—possibly over a hundred thousand Tier Two, Tier Three, Tier Four, Tier Five, and even stronger Demons. Those are all Demon Flesh resources, but they are also formidable and terrifying opponents. After all, the various Demon Techniques of these Demons are extrely bizarre, and I cannot underestimate them!
However, now that I have the Cyan Nether Immortal Sword, as long as I am sowhat cautious and wait for the Third Princess to engage the Demons of the Sealing Demon Mountain in battle, distracting the Great Demons, I can then strike with thunderous force. There shouldn’t be any issues, right?
「A few dozen breaths later,」
Several figures flew into the airspace above the location where the two Tier Eight Great Demons had fallen. It was none other than Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er and her party.
Ouyang Qinglan, leading them, landed near the piles of dust that were once the Demons. This Grand Elder of the Profound Sect and the Celestial Sect, an Eighth-Layer Perfection Cultivator, examined the countless dust particles on the ground and the massive twenty-four-mile-long crack. A look of astonishnt appeared on her face as her pupils shrank.
Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er carefully examined the elongated piles of dust, her eyes filled with suspicion as she said, "There is still so residual Demon Qi in this dust. The concentration of this Demon Qi is very strong. The Demon that died here and turned into dust must have been at least a Seventh-Layer Demon!"
Ouyang Qinglan shook her head gently, the astonishnt on her face yet to dissipate. "Third Princess, the residual Demon Qi in this dust is indeed highly concentrated, but it’s not from a Seventh-Layer Demon. According to my senses, this should be the residual Demon Qi after the fall of a Late Eighth Layer Great Demon... And judging by the pattern of the dust, these were likely two Late Eighth Layer Earth Dragon Demons!"
Xiaoo Ying’Er’s face was filled with amazent. "Late Eighth Layer Earth Dragon Demons? The recovery ability of Earth Dragon Demons is not inferior to that of Marsh Pythons; in fact, it’s even stronger! While Marsh Pythons need to be near water sources, Earth Dragon Demons can convert soil into Demon Qi to rapidly heal their injuries! To slay two Late Eighth Layer Earth Dragon Demons... normally, one would need to be at least a Mid-Ninth Layer Cultivator, or even stronger!"
The Cultivators who continued to arrive overheard the conversation between Ouyang Qinglan and Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er. As they looked at the dust on the ground and the enormous crack, utter astonishnt filled their faces; so even showed traces of fear!
Among these Cultivators, even the strongest were at most Late Eighth Layer. None of them could possibly be a match for a Late Eighth Layer Earth Dragon Demon, let alone defeat one!
Ouyang Qinglan, her face full of dread, said, "To slay two Late-stage Tier Eight Great Demons and carve a twenty-four-mile-long crack in the ground! This must be the power of the newly erged Immortal Artifact. Without an Immortal Artifact, even I couldn’t contend with two Late-stage Tier Eight Earth Dragon Demons, let alone create such a terrifying crack in the earth! But how could an Immortal Artifact that has just appeared be activated so quickly..."
Han Li, his longsword on his back, ticulously inspected the crack in the ground, which was many tens of ters deep. An Immortal Artifact? The power of an Immortal Artifact is actually this terrifying! If I, an Early Eighth Layer Cultivator, were to attempt creating such a terrifying crack, I’d probably need to slash at it for several days, thousands, even tens of thousands of tis!
General Yang Luochen squatted, observed the crack for a mont, then shook his head decisively. "The issue is, judging by its shape, this terrifying twenty-four-mile-long crack was definitely not ford by thousands or tens of thousands of slashes. It was absolutely ford in a single strike!"
"A single strike? The power of a single strike?" a Seventh-Layer Cultivator in the crowd exclaid in a low voice.
Another Seventh-Layer Cultivator looked at the crack as if witnessing sothing incredibly terrifying. "To unleash such terrifying power in a single strike? As expected of an Immortal Artifact heralded by such an astonishing phenonon!"
General Wang Linghui of Prince Yu’s Mansion, his expression shifting rapidly, said, "However, if soone truly did activate the Immortal Artifact, create this crack, and slay the Great Demons, doesn’t that an the Immortal Artifact that illuminated the heavens and earth is now in soone’s possession? Who on earth could possess such incredible fortune to have mastered such a terrifying Immortal Artifact!"
Listening to the crowd’s discussion, a thought suddenly struck Ouyang Qinglan. She looked up towards Flying Dragon Slope, her expression tensing once more. The esteed Grand Elder of the Celestial Sect now had eyes full of reverence, her voice heavy as she spoke, "It’s not just a matter of great fortune. From the mont the Immortal Artifact erged until now, only a little more than the ti it takes to drink half a cup of tea has passed! An expert capable of nurturing an Immortal Artifact and unleashing its terrifying strike in such a short period must themselves be incredibly powerful! Such nurturing speed... even Late Ninth Layer or Perfection experts couldn’t possibly nurture an Immortal Artifact so quickly!"
Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er’s delicate face showed a changing expression. "Elder Ouyang, are you suggesting... an Immortal?"
Ouyang Qinglan shook her head. "I cannot be certain! However, this crack clearly appeared just monts ago. That expert might still be at Flying Dragon Slope, where the crack begins!"
Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er heard this and turned her head towards Flying Dragon Slope, a hint of anticipation in her eyes. "Then, shall we go and et this expert?"
