Chapter 510 - 451: The Sword Returns to Hidden Spirit Mountain

Today’s clouds pressed very low.

The gloomy weather gave a deep sense of oppression.

But this sword light, seemingly able to pierce through the entire heavens and earth, restored the Profound Yellow Realm to a "clear and bright world."

This extremely terrifying sword caused the cultivators and cultivators within hundreds of miles to feel the tremor of the residual sword Qi.

Even those a thousand miles away might suddenly find their vision obstructed.

Everything happened very quickly.

The pillar of light was destroyed, the six avatars were also obliterated in the sword light.

The vigor that Jiang Zhi had fostered for many years turned entirely into sword Qi, pouring out like a flood.

He continued holding the sword in one hand, staring forward.

Yet the Lifebound Sword [Yao Yao] in his hand was completely shattered, even the hilt had several cracks.

At this moment, a young man with an unparalleled clean face, though mingled with many white hairs, arrived through the air.

Xu Ziqing, following the instructions of his grandmaster, opened the gigantic sword box behind him at this moment.

The Bronze Sword was grasped in his right hand, forcibly breaking through the restrictions on the Evil Sword once again.

Now, his cultivation had soared much higher since entering the Origin Spirit Realm.

The restrictions on the Evil Sword also had two more layers opened compared to back then.

The sword light swept forward with endless evil Qi.

Even though the six avatars had all been destroyed, the six innate supreme treasures remained intact.

Each innate supreme treasure was a product of the Kunlun Heavenly Dao and contained immensely terrifying power of the Heavenly Dao.

Though not equivalent to a fruit position, they weren’t something ordinary Ninth Realm could contend with either.

Earlier in the third layer of the Origin Spirit Realm, Xu Ziqing was unable to destroy the Donghuang Ring.

Now, with the Bronze Sword having two more restrictions opened, the degree of its evil Qi concentration can be said to have significantly increased, essentially on another level.

The six innate supreme treasures still emitted spiritual light.

When the suppressing [Heaven and Earth Sword] completely dissipated, the spiritual light shone even brighter!

Six distinct powers resembled six ferocious beasts unleashed from their cages.

Yet, just as they were about to display their might, the extremely evil Qi had already enveloped them entirely.

Previously, Wen Shiyu told Chu Huaixu, although the innate supreme treasures are noble as products derived from the Heavenly Dao, they do not possess the spiritual like a spiritual artifact.

They are all inert objects.

Now, they are merely completing the "instructions" given by the avatar’s previous masters.

The spiritual light emitted by these innate supreme treasures was instantly devoured clean by the evil Qi.

But while devouring them, it seemed not that easy.

Now, the unsealed Bronze Sword indeed descended like an Evil Venerable.

The sword spirit was instantly enraged.

— Can’t handle a few dead objects?

The originally extremely arrogant sword spirit of the Evil Sword instantly began to recklessly extract evil Qi, as if there were no cost.

So much so that the evil gaseous substance expanded and spread in the sky.

Even looking somewhat grotesque, akin to manifesting fierce beasts and ghostly shadows.

And the six innate supreme treasures had already been cleaved by the Heaven and Earth Sword.

Now, they were directly suppressed by the Evil Sword.

The power of the Heavenly Dao contained within them was continuously gnawed away by the evil Qi.

Holding the sword, Xu Ziqing, due to forcibly opening another restriction, found more white hair on his head.

The constant release of evil Qi from the Bronze Sword brought immense burden to Xiaoxu as well.

If not a body refiner, he would have instantly perished.

As for the sword spirit of the Evil Sword, naturally, it wouldn’t care about the situation of the young man.

How could it concern itself with so much?

Now, only two restrictions out of nine remained.

It naturally didn’t take Xu Ziqing seriously.

Fortunately, his foundation was solid after the extreme honing from "Refining Sword Formulas."

In addition to the high classes of subsequent body refining techniques.

This allowed him to withstand it without losing his life.

Not far away, Xiang Yan stood in the air without notice.

He took out an upper-grade spirit pill, forcibly flicking it into Xu Ziqing’s mouth.

Then began to cast a spell, transferring his spiritual power into Xu Ziqing’s body.

Now, the Bronze Sword seemed bent against the six innate supreme treasures.

Seeing someone behind extending Xu Ziqing’s life fueled its more frenzied squeezing of this so-called [Sword Attendant].

In reality, only a few dozen breaths had passed.

But it felt interminably long.

Xu Ziqing’s body was overwhelmed, already bleeding from seven orifices.

Xiang Yan behind him was pale, teetering.

A petite girl happened to arrive through the air at this moment.

Lin Zixuan had been on the road, finally reaching the Daoist Sect by now.

Upon arrival, she encountered such major events.

First, the tenth light pillar appeared here, followed by the Sword Venerable executing Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root, then Jiang Zhi employing Heaven and Earth Sword.

As one of the world’s protagonists, the girl naturally had the courage to die for the world.

But she also understood that she wasn’t strong enough yet, merely adding to the chaos for Sword Venerable and Elder Jiang.

Therefore, she remained in a safe area not far away.

Until she saw Xu Ziqing walking on air with the Bronze Sword, she immediately headed in this direction.

Her positioning had always been Divine Level Assistance, now quickly forming hand seals to cast spells.

Xiang Yan’s transmission of spiritual power to Xu Ziqing was inefficient, largely wasted.

But Lin Zixuan’s cultivation technique was special, as was her spiritual embryo.

In the First Realm, she could perform "Spiritual Power Loan," lending her spiritual power to others, now easily done.

At this moment, she felt as if Xu Ziqing was a void-beast.

No matter how much was poured into him, his appetite was too vast to fill.

Her cultivation technique focused mostly on total spiritual power, but even she couldn’t handle such lending.

Time advanced several dozen more breaths.

Finally, the Evil Sword’s current capacity to release evil Qi reached its limit.

This time, it seemed sated.

The restrictions resealed it.

The Kunlun Heavenly Dao power absorbed by the Bronze Sword had most sealed within the sword.

And a minor portion, just like before, flowed into Xiaoxu’s body!

The six innate supreme treasures dimmed considerably but weren’t completely devoured.

The young man fell from the sky, with Xiang Yan hurriedly catching him, and reaching out to seize the six innate supreme treasures.

Using the minimal spiritual power left within him, he held Xiaoxu, flying back to the mountain.

Now, only Jiang Zhi still stood with the sword.

Only he was completely devoid of life.

After placing Xu Ziqing on the ground, Xiang Yan turned to look at his Junior Martial Uncle, tears immediately streaming down his face.

The Divine Sword [Yao Yao] in Jiang Zhi’s hand, which only retained the hilt, slightly trembled a few times.

It seemed to use its last bit of strength to fulfill its master’s wish.

Only to see it transform into a stream of light, flying toward some part of the Daoist Sect.

Finally landing on that Hidden Spirit Mountain.
