“Watching your breakthrough made me realize what I was missing,”

“1 have only just realized that even though 1 had condensed the three heavens, those three were just an illusion.”

“Upon returning to Xuandan Peak, 1 shattered my divine soul with secret techniques, merged it with the Soul Fusion Tower, and condensed the fourth heaven, which allowed me to ascend to the Nascent Soul stage.”

“This involves the mystery of the Nascent Soul; you’ll naturally understand it when you reach that realm.”

“Of course, my way just indulges in shortcuts. Moreover, I suspect that without a great immortal affinity, the fourth heaven is my limit. Even though I’ve stepped into the realm of the Nascent Soul stage, I’m still bound to it.”

“But you’re different. You condensed the first heaven at the Qi Cultivation Realm. This is the orthodox cultivation method of this lineage. Unless things go awry, you can cultivate all the way to the Spirit Transformation stage and achieve the Taoist Lord Position.”

As he said this, Yuan Shun looked at Han Yi with a vibrant and piercing gaze. Then, feeling that he might be overstating things and possibly incite negative thoughts in Han Yi, he changed his tone and said solemnly,

“Of course, when I mentioned the Taoist Lord, it’s theoretically feasible, but this Immortal Road, even at its fastest, requires thousands of years.”

“You mustn’t become overconfident.”

“As for the trip to the Blood Sea on duty, it’s the decision of the Council. The Heavenly Mechanism Chart pointed out ten people under the public eye, and even I couldn’t retort. These are the rules of the sect, but with Elder Zhuge and Elder Huo Ming, you should be safe.”

“Moreover, this can also be a rare cultivation experience. You’ve just stepped into the Foundation Establishment stage, and the methods of the Qi Cultivation stage are no longer applicable. Killing the demonic beings of the Blood Sea can rapidly enhance your combat power, it’s not necessarily a drudgery.”

Only Han Yi knew about the killing of Mo Wen and Yu Ming outside Hongluan City. Gu Yu, who had no gossip mouth, naturally wouldn’t talk about it if no one asked.

Therefore, Yuan Shun didn’t know that Han Yi, who had just entered the Foundation Establishment stage, had defeated two early Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Among them, Mo Wen was at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment level, while Yu Ming was a standout at the same level in the Heavenly Soul Sect. His Soul Skills could trip up middle-level Foundation Establishment cultivators if they weren’t careful.

“Finally, you’ve made a significant contribution this time. If you need any resources for cultivation, feel free to mention them. The sect will do everything to cater to your needs,” Yuan Shun made a final promise to Han Yi.

Han Yi thought for a moment, a thought flashed through his mind. After his ascension to the Foundation Establishment stage, he realized his sword tool was subpar.

The Green Reed Sword aside, he had detected something peculiar about this weapon from Mo Wen’s memory but when he studied it again last night, it seemed ordinary in both appearance and when probed with divine sense, so he put it down.

Although the Clear Spring Sword was obtained from the Stars Sea, this sword, which was granted to cultivating legends, was not weak on that level but when confronting Foundation Establishment cultivators, it could just barely keep up with the most ordinary in the early phase of Foundation Establishment. For example, it could hold its own against the old cultivator outside Hongluan City, but when facing strong early phase cultivators like Mo Wen, it was clearly inferior.

Moreover, after several fights, this sword was already at the brink of breaking down.

As for the blood sword obtained from Xue He, its quality was lower than Clear Spring Sword. It had only survived in the fight outside Hongluan City because it was used for sneak attacks rather than direct onslaughts. If it had been used as the primary weapon, it would’ve broken faster than the Clear Spring Sword.

Of the three swords, only the Green Reed Sword was usable, but its power amplification was not strong. Han Yi urgently needed a stronger sword.

With this in mind, Han Yi voiced his requirement, and Yuan Shun nodded. After thinking for a while, he suddenly moved and took out a brocade box from his Qiankun Ring.

The box was black and approximately one and a half meters long. Han Yi guessed there was probably a long sword inside and his eyes lit up.

This sword, taken out of Yuan Shun’s Qiankun Ring, should be Yuan Shun’s private collection. As a peak Golden Core, who had recently ascended to the Nascent Soul stage, his collection would surely be extraordinary.

However.

What made Han Yi’s gaze intense was the sword within the brocade box once it opened was unexpectedly a broken sword.

That’s right, it wasn’t a long sword, but a broken one.

The sword was half its size with a handle and body both in black, but the sword’s tip was broken and the edge at the break was smooth. It didn’t line up with the hilt but was angled to a certain degree.

“This sword is known as the Black Light Sword,”

Yuan Shun said, his tone becoming slightly serious when he looked at Han Yi. His next words made Han Yi’s heart skip a beat.

“Its original form was a spirit sword of the magical treasure grade.”

“During my travel in Daqin, I met its owner, a Golden Core Stage Sword Immortal from Sword Cliff. Unfortunately, the Sword Immortal was killed in a fight, and his Spirit Sword was also chipped at the tip, losing its spirituality.”

“However, even after losing its spirituality, due its material, it might have ceased being a magical treasure, but it would be peerless among the best magical tools.”

Yuan Shun closed the brocade box and tossed it to Han Yi who quickly caught it.

“If it was an ordinary early Foundation Establishment cultivator, I would not give you this broken sword. However, you’re different. You’ve cultivated the Ninefold Soul Tower, your divine soul is stronger than most middle-phase Foundation Establishment cultivators, which is more than enough to control this broken sword.”

Han Yi held the brocade box, his eyes exploding with an astonishing brilliance. He knew the power of magical treasures. The sect master of the Heavenly Soul Sect’s magical treasure, even though it was only a broken piece, had pressed a small Immortal Peak down by three meters, attesting to the terror of magical treasures..
