Xiao Mu stared at the Silver Sword hanging high in the sky and thought for a moment before speaking, "When Elder Zun manipulated his avatar to walk towards the Sword just now, I did have an idea."

"The Sword might only target objects with spirituality, including ghosts and all living beings."

"What's the use of saying all that? I thought you actually had a plan," Huang Yuan grumbled, glancing at Xiao Mu with skepticism.

"Xiao Mu, what do you mean by that?" Elder Zun seemed to have heard something in Xiao Mu's words.

Xiao Mu ignored Huang Yuan and continued, "If the Sword only targets objects with spirituality, what about objects without spirituality? For example, could a piece of wood pass under the Sword?"

"Although we can't go directly under the Sword, perhaps we can think of a way if it truly only targets objects with spirituality."

"Are you suggesting using some sort of mysterious techniques or secret arts to suppress one's own spirituality?" Elder Zun hazarded a guess at what Xiao Mu was getting at.

Xiao Mu nodded, "Exactly. Within the abilities of the Life and Death Category, there are some techniques and treasures that can suppress one's own spirituality, making the main body appear as though it is dead."

"I think, for other True Force abilities, there should be similar methods."

"If the Sword targets only spiritual objects, perhaps we can start from this angle and try."

Elder Zun and Huang Yuan both fell silent.

Even Huang Yuan had to admit that there was some sense to Xiao Mu's suggestion.

Elder Zun said, "We still don't know if the Sword is targeting objects with spirituality. I'll give it a try."

As he spoke, Elder Zun once again used the Power of Creation to split another avatar and passed a common stone to its hand.

Elder Zun directed the avatar to walk forward holding the stone. When it approached a certain distance from the Silver Sword, it stopped and hurled the stone under the Sword.

"Clack!"

The stone passed under the Sword and landed on the Paper Bridge on the other side.

From beginning to end, the Silver Sword didn't attack the ordinary stone.

Xiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief; this proved his speculation was correct.

Elder Zun and Huang Yuan exchanged glances, both wearing a look of joy on their faces.

Elder Zun, still not entirely convinced, took out several common objects from his body and repeatedly had his main body throw them under the Sword. The Silver Sword remained unresponsive throughout.

Elder Zun looked at Xiao Mu with a smile of approval, "It seems Xiao Mu's suggestion is valid. When we go back, let's each find corresponding techniques or treasures that can conceal our spirituality. Maybe we'll be able to deceive the Treasure Sword and walk under it safely."

Huang Yuan said, "Mysterious techniques or treasures that can cover spirituality are not so easy to obtain."

He couldn't help but glance at Xiao Mu as he spoke.

In the Life and Death abilities I cultivate, the mysterious techniques or objects that can conceal one's own spirituality are relatively easier to come by.

Huang Yuan's words made Xiao Mu secretly smile with understanding.

Compared to other True Forces, the Power of Life and Death indeed had its unique advantages, particularly in matters of life and death, achieving many things other True Forces could not.

"In this respect, Xiao Mu should have an easier time," Elder Zun said with a smile, looking at Xiao Mu with a hint of envy. Xiao Mu's practice of the Power of Life and Death made even him feel envious.

Somewhat helplessly, Huang Yuan said, "Treasures that can suppress spirituality are extraordinary in value. Well, let's figure it out when we go back. The object emitting blue light in the Blood Paper House is definitely a good thing; it's a pity..."

He sighed regretfully as he spoke.

The Blood Paper House was just within arm's reach, but due to the existence of the Silver Sword, they were unable to get there, which greatly disappointed Huang Yuan.

Elder Zun laughed and said, "No matter what kind of good thing it is, as long as this place remains undiscovered by others, it will always be ours."

"We can take what's inside the Blood Paper House next time we come."

Huang Yuan nodded.

After making his suggestion, Xiao Mu didn't say anything more. Instead, he concentrated on thinking about which Life and Death mysterious techniques he could use to suppress his own spirituality.

This contemplation did lead him to several, including "Three Lives Divine Power" and "Five Lives Divine Power."

However, even the most basic Three Lives Divine Power required one to reach the late stages of Yin God Realm to be cultivated.

"When I go back, the first thing to do is to find a way to enhance my Realm, step into the late stages of the Yin God Realm, and then immediately cultivate either 'Three Lives Divine Power' or 'Five Lives Divine Power.' It would be best to also cultivate the 'Undying Divine Technique.'

"Fortunately, there's a three-month buffer period. During this time, I must find every possible way to enhance my strength."

"First, my offensive abilities are too weak. Currently, I only have the Five Elements Divine Light, which is completely insufficient. Perhaps I can try to cultivate the derivative divine techniques of 'Yin Yang Dual Energy.'"

"Once I am stronger, I can also cultivate the 'Five-color Divine Light,' which is the advanced version of the 'Five Elements Divine Light,' with immense and extraordinary power."

"I also need to cultivate the Five Elements Escaping Technique more. Having only the Earth Escape Technique, even after its mutation, is not enough."

"Elder Zun and Old Huang are far stronger than I am. Being with them, I can hardly contribute in battles. If this continues, they will eventually eliminate me."

Xiao Mu's mind raced, continuously thinking about how to improve his own strength.

Being with Elder Zun and Huang Yuan made him acutely aware of his own inadequacies, igniting a strong sense of crisis within him.

"When I have a chance, I'll try to cause another Variant to the Great Decree. With the mutated Great Decree combined with the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, the strength I can exert should further increase."
