Divine Brilliance

“The sword is formed!”

Within Tianfang World, Wenqi Pavilion, Yexuan gave out a Heaven shocking laugh. When the sound landed, a bright light suddenly charged up from within the building.

Yexuan’s hands moved quickly and dozens of runes shot out, causing the sword artifact which wanted to fly away to stabilize, slowly retracted into his hand.

“As expected, it is a pinnacle Celestial Sword!”

Yexuan flicked the sword body with his right hand. It buzzed and a few threads of sword energy shot out, instantly cutting a wound in Yexuan’s arm.

“Chill Moon Sword? What a good name, extremely sharp, a really good sword! Thank you Master Shen, a Master’s crafting skills are truly rare in the world…”

“Brother Ye’s compliments are too much!”

Shen Yuexuan sat beside the furnace and laughed, “The metal energy is a top spiritual treasure, I just brought the xiantian qualities out. If I was unable to make it a pinnacle sword artifact what face would I have to call myself an Artifact Master? I definitely won’t accept being called a Master!”

Yexuan’s expression was really excited, not bothering about what he was saying at all. Shen Yuexuan shook his head and said, “There is one more thing that Brother Ye has to pay attention to! Before this sword was formed I felt that there is still much potential. Which is why the spiritual formation that I crafted isn’t complete. If Brother Ye’s cultivation reaches a level and the sword spirit is formed, you can merge a God Technique in. Although it might not become a God Weapon, it might reach half a step to God Weapon.”

“Oh?”

A bright glow flashed in Yexuan’s eyes. A look of gratitude appeared on his face before it turned back to normal.

“Then, what God Technique does Master think that I should merge into the sword?”

Shen Yuexuan took in a deep breath and said, “Your Big Domain Shocking Sword Technique is a top martial path technique. To be able to make this technique even stronger, there are just a few Daos. One is the Tough word technique, the other is the Thunder technique and one is the Spread word technique. These three God Techniques are most suitable for this sword.”

Yexuan’s brow rose up. Out of the three, the Tough word was the weakest and most possible to be completely merged into the sword to cause it to advance to God Weapon. When the time comes the sword would become tougher such that it would be able to take the aftereffects from his Big Domain Shaking Technique and there would be no danger of it breaking.

The Thunder sound technique was a really strong one. When the sword shook, it would give out a thunder-like sound which could damage the enemy.

Sound itself was caused by the shaking of matter, the two merging together would strengthen one another. Be it solo damage or fighting a group of people, it was the best choice.

Compared to these, the Spread technique was strong too. It could allow the shaking power of his sword to spread better thus strengthening his sword. Apart from that, there were other great uses.

All of a sudden, he wasn’t able to come to a decision. The three of them were all great choices such that he didn’t know which to give up on.

Yexuan then shook his head, his cultivation wasn’t strong enough now and the artifact spirit was just born.

It was too early to think about all these things.

“Such kindness can’t be expressed in thanks, I will remember this deep in my heart. I have waited for this sword for several months and am too eager, I will leave first!”

After saying that, Yexuan directly sped through the air and flew into the distance.

“Brother Ye…”

Shen Yuexuan originally wanted to tell him that there was no need to say that and that he helped him forge the blade because Zong Shou told him to do so, so Yexuan really didn’t owe him anything. However, the moment he said this, Yexuan’s body was far away.

He shook his head and sighed helplessly.

“He is going through his tribulation? Let’s hope you succeed!”

He could see that this person was at peak God Realm. He was just a bit away from that line. However, be it cultivation or Dao accumulation, he was at a suitable amount. During these days, he was forcefully suppressing it to prevent himself from crossing it.

He should have something he worried about which was why he wasn’t willing to challenge the tribulation.

However, the moment the sword was in his hand, Yexuan’s aura was totally different and there was nothing he had to fear anymore.

The chance of him passing the tribulation was at least at ninety percent and there was nothing to worry about anymore.

Shen Yuexuan looked towards the furnace used to forge the sword.

There was still a sword looking artifact lying within the blazing flames.

Different from the sword artifact that Yexuan demanded, the Illusionary Sword Forging Technique that Zong Shou learned forged a spirit sword that wasn’t physical. It was something more like a second soul.

This was why this sword foetus was still an illusionary form and why after three months, Zong Shou’s Xiantian Purple Geng Xuan Metal Energy still hadn’t changed in form.

The two sword artifacts were forged at the same time. Shen Yuexuan also tried to shift the xiantian energy on Chill Moon Sword onto Zong Shou’s sword foetus.

It looked more and more out of this world and ethereal.

The following process was one that made Yexuan hesitate.

“This is a headache!”

Yexuan’s brow furrowed.

“If Ruler is just a normal cultivator, then this sword foetus is a pinnacle artifact base. However, as a King, the Ruler of a country, this is too ethereal and isn’t good. It lacks some righteousness, some thickness, it also lacks the aura of an emperor.”

It wasn’t that there was no way to solve it, however, if he continued it would cause the quality of the sword artifact to reduce.

Standing on the angle of the blacksmith, this was something that couldn’t be forgiven. Personally causing a sword he made which he could originally be proud of into something that was normal, that was something that made him feel heart-pained.

“It can’t compare to that Ganjiang and Moxie who had the courage to sacrifice their bodies to their swords. This is the only thing that can happen…”

Yexuan sighed and was about to shoot a spell into the furnace. He suddenly stopped and thinking about it there was a plan! If he used that thing, not only would the quality not drop, it might even strengthen…

However, this item was really precious and was the person worth him paying such a huge price?

His heart moved and he looked to the left.

First a black token sped in and landed on his hand.

Ju Zi Xuan Token?

Ju Zi was the title for the head of the Mohists, so naturally, it was in his hand. Obviously, it wasn’t the current token of the Mohist Ju Zi but a tool to communicate quickly in the outer region. It was really swift and exceeded the top talisman of the Taoist Faction by close to double speed.

Yexuan grabbed it and in just a moment his expression changed. He nearly lost control of himself and the furnace in front of him.

“…Gan Country and Great Shang fought at the God Falling Plains in the south. In one battle, eight hundred thousand elites of Great Shang were wiped out. That day Min River was broken and the nine million Great Shang army was forced to flee! He actually won, and so quickly…”

Yexuan’s eyes were filled with shock and it lasted for a while. He remembered ten days ago when he found out about the battle of the Cloud World.

Great Shang led over ten million troops into the south to fight against Great Gan.

At that time, he was even shaken and he doubted his decision to join Great Gan.

However, he didn’t expect that in just ten days the invincible looking eighteen million army of Great Shang was scattered.

“It is news that spread over the fifth day after the battle. So, this was sent after everything was confirmed. Accompanied by Qilin, Saint King Energy – Ruler is actually the Saint Ruler?”

Yexuan was shocked. When they met the first time, he knew that Zong Shou was special.

He didn’t know that Yexuan was actually someone who could be compared to the top three Saint Emperors.

“Sending a decree to the world to evaluate the pros and cons of the Confucian Faction! To discuss their studies? Good! Good – what Confucian cons, evaluate Confucianism! The eyes of the Heavens have opened up and selected this Saint Ruler. This is the one destined to be the Ruler of our Mohist Faction…”

Then, he frowned and was filled with endless killing intent.

Whether or not this was a blessing or a curse to the Confucian Faction was tough to discern.

If they could pass through this they might be able to start a new life, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, there would be no weaknesses in them anymore.

Shen Yuexuan shook his head and laughed. Zong Shou had given them a chance and if he couldn’t take it, then the Mohist Faction deserved to die and be eliminated.

“Our Monist’s artifact forging and mechanisms, how can it be a small Dao? Moreover, although love and not fighting is not appropriate, we tried to persuade people to be kind…”

He put the Ju Zi Token away and continued to look outside.

A purple gold talisman crane sped in but was stopped by the restrictions outside, trapped in mid air.

However, the golden light it shone was really majestic, not to be taken lightly.

It was obviously a mark left by Zong Shou using King Path Martial Arts.

“Ruler? The agreed date hasn’t been reached, is he here to rush me?”

He was filled with questions in his heart. He reached out to unlock the restrictions and allowed it to fly over and return back into the shape of the talisman.

Shen Yuexuan grabbed it in his hand and then his expression turned serious.

“Qin Emperor Tomb? Zhongxuan Grand Teacher is a Qi Cultivator successor, the junior of Xufu? Is it possible to enter the Qin Emperor Main Tomb early?”

Shen Yuexuan’s brow frowned and he was in deep thought.

From ancient times, the tombs of Rulers were built in some hidden places such that other people wouldn’t rob it.

However, there were conflicts. As long as people found out, they would be able to borrow the power of the spiritual formation. If one wanted to maintain the formations one would need enough spiritual energy.

The Qin Emperor Tomb was like that. After every period of time it would appear for a short while to absorb Heaven and Earth spiritual energy to maintain the formation.

The most recent time should have been several years later.

“If other people said that then it is okay, but if it is the descendant of Xufu, then it might really be possible!”

During the Qin Emperor Tomb period, Xufu was the one who led it. With his intellect he might have left some methods.

“The twelve copper men are really important! The tomb is too complicated and is tough to write all in the talisman. Speaking of which, it is time for me to make a trip back to the Cloud World…”

While speaking, Shen Yuexuan took out a yellow glow and looked towards the furnace.
