In the Shenxiao Palace, each Innate Spiritual Treasure is ticulously stored and nurtured within its own dedicated hall.
The hall that houses the Undying Saber is known as the Yellow Springs Hall.
With a creak, the long-sealed palace doors were opened, and in the dark palace where no one had set foot for ages, only eighteen everlasting lamps emitted an eerie glow.
At the very center of the palace, there was a pool, but the water was murky, seemingly drawn from the underground Yellow Springs, exuding a chilling aura of all seasons.
And at the center of this spring’s source, a Celestial Saber was slanted and obscured by a hazy ghostly light, making it unclear to behold.
Lu Chengfeng and Kong Xuan simultaneously fixed their gaze upon that saber, rely looking from afar, yet one could feel its bone-chilling sharpness, even causing pain in the retinas.
"What a deadly weapon!"
Kong Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, sensing a very subtle resonance between his own path and the lethal tool, feeling an excited urge to hunt, he stepped forward.
"Boom"
As he stepped into the spring water, the blade enveloped in ghostly light suddenly burst forth with extrely dazzling radiance, as if it were a living entity concealing a Divine Being, absorbing the Essence Qi of Yellow Springs and resonating with the Yellow Springs beyond consciousness.
This saber displayed extraordinary mystique, swallowing the Essence Qi of Yellow Springs, yet nurturing an exceedingly brilliant vitality.
It draws the Five Elents above, connects with the Yellow Springs below; life and death as one, resembling the primordial Creation of heaven and earth.
Kong Xuan raised a hand wanting to grasp this Celestial Saber, the mysterious and ancient deadly weapon suddenly emitted an incomparably clear hum.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The saber light like water seed to sever life and death, the Peacock even felt that sothing belonging to him was being taken away in the void.
"Lifespan?!"
His face revealed an expression of surprise, "This saber can sever one’s lifespan?"
Lu Chengfeng was also retrieving the saber from the treasury for the first ti, rely generally familiar with these Innate Spiritual Treasures, unaware of their specific secrets.
At his level of Cultivation Realm, the effect of external objects has diminished, as his own Dharma Form and Divine Techniques are the most powerful existence, only extrely compatible Innate Spiritual Treasures can be beneficial.
At this mont, Kong Xuan sensed this deadly weapon with his spirit, feeling the saber’s light, which was vague and emitted a sense of ancient mystery, a saber nad the Undying, capable of severing lifespan, truly harbors a bizarre evilness.
"I cultivate the Path of the Five Elents, you use the power of Yellow Springs, severing enemy’s lifespan, nurturing Creation’s vitality." As Kong Xuan spoke, behind him manifested the Five-Colored Divine Light, exercising the Creation of Five Elents, resonating with it.
This Innate Spiritual Treasure nurtured a Spirituality, which is not wisdom, but nearly the instinctive mystique of a Divine Weapon.
If not for the Empress suppressing the Innate Spiritual Treasures sealed in the treasury, this Celestial Saber would have long since escaped its bindings to slay enemies.
Having said that, Kong Xuan stepped forward slowly, placing his palm on the saber’s hilt.
Instantly, an exceedingly intense sound of saber crying echoed in this ancient palace, the Celestial Saber shook violently like a Flood Dragon confined by iron chains, emitting a clanging sound akin to tal clashing.
Kong Xuan rely grasped the saber hilt, perating the Five-Colored Divine Light into the Celestial Saber, allowing it to struggle, yet his hand was heavier than a mountain, firmly suppressing it.
"Though you are the Innate Spiritual Object born of heaven’s Creation, without anyone to wield you, how can you contend with ?"
"Since you are a weapon for killing without harm, naturally you should follow to slaughter living beings, to not waste this saber’s edge."
His tone was calm, yet his actions were extrely domineering and decisive, allowing the saber’s light to engulf him, rely shielding with Five-Colored Divine Light, immune to Ten Thousand Laws, impervious to blades and swords.
Unaware of how much ti has passed, all anomalies in the hall disappeared without a trace, the Undying Saber quietly held by Kong Xuan, manifesting its form.
This saber looked like a handful of moonlight, clear and flawless, with waves of light flowing on the blade, faintly revealing five-colored radiance, the hilt ancient, like yellow bronze, or like a stubborn stone at the bottom of Yellow Springs, exuding so kind of unsettling aura.
Kong Xuan couldn’t help but let a smile appear on his face; not only did the saber align perfectly with his own path but also possessed an exceedingly fierce nature along with the mysterious aspect of severing lifespan.
Whether against Immortals, Buddhas, Demons and Monsters, or Netherworld Ghost Monsters, it harbors extrely terrifying lethality.
With this object for protection, even facing the Peacock Great Saint in the Netherworld, he is confident of coming out whole.
He flicked his fingers, and the bell condensed from the Impermanence Venerate Position hung on the saber’s hilt, swaying in the breeze, emitting a crisp and clear rattling sound.
"Now that these two items are in hand, Kong Xuan shall take his leave!"
As Kong Xuan spoke, he strapped the Undying Saber onto his back, nodding slightly to Lu Chengfeng, then with the crisp sound of the Impermanence Bell, he invoked the Boundaryless Great Divine Techniques, with one step, he was already elsewhere.
...
The Impermanence Bell opened up a deep passage straight ahead, Kong Xuan fled rapidly, the surrounding Void was distorted, lacking orientation up and down, and occasionally incredibly massive Void Beasts could be seen.
Ghostly light flickered; heaven and earth receded, Kong Xuan felt ti and light twisted, spatial passages alternated, making everything unreal.
Finally, accompanied by a loud "boom," he suddenly sensed an unusual aura.
"That is... the aura of a Celestial Venerate?!"
Kong Xuan’s heart slightly shook; within the chaotic currents of Void, he sensed the aura of a Celestial Venerate.
He couldn’t help but his pupils constricted, clutching the saber hilt; the bell hanging on it shook intensely, the power of his Divine Techniques rippling, stabilizing the Void, allowing him to stand still amid the chaotic flow.
