The rainbow-like sword light disturbed Gu Yun Mountain, shook the whole Huangtian Continent, and also awakened many ancient powerhouses. This unknown battle thus came to an end. The leaders of the Three Great Demon Sects, two Crossing Tribulation powerhouses, six Divinity Transformation experts, and a number of Golden Core Nascent Soul top disciples gathered. They brought countless Magic Artifacts, Ghost Spirits, innumerable puppets, and the Ancient Immortal Zombie to launch a surprise attack on the Sword Sect. For many of those in distant continents within the Righteous Alliance, the manner in which this great battle ended was unclear. All that was known afterward was that the Primordial Spirits of the two great ancestors were damaged, forcing them to flee thousands of miles away. Several embodied powerhouses fell. The rumored Ancient Saint Immortal Corpse was also slain by that vast sword light that shocked the Huangtian Continent and was then sealed beneath the Sword Sect's Cloud Sea.

But as for how far the aura emitted by that Immortal Ascension Realm sword light spread, who could tell? The many disciples of the Sword Sect who had not yet left Magpie Bridge Immortal Mountain all felt a strong surge of sword light. The vast sword light caused that solitary Magpie Bridge Immortal Mountain, lying beyond the clouds, to display a rainbow—its sword light was truly like a rainbow. However, the various details, the intricacies of the Big Formation, and the origin of that final sword light remained unknown to all. Only the top powerhouses in the Nine Provinces Cultivation World knew. It had to be the brilliance of a Divine Sword, unseen for countless years, once again illuminating the Nine Provinces. This radiance was enough to inspire awe from thousands of miles away.

Yet, for some people, this sword light stirred no awe at all.

Only…

Wang Mu glanced over the paper note several times. It seemed he could feel the frustration and anger simmering between the lines. Who threw this? he wondered. He then shook his head and nonchalantly burned it to ashes with the Fire Control Book as if nothing had happened. He looked up at the sky, contemplating his next move.

Nanrong Biyou left just like that. Judging by the finality in her words, she likely won't return. I was indeed startled by the Little Sword Spirit just now, especially in the instant I ascended into the void and saw Yan Qingwu. In that moment, the sensation of my soul leaving my body was no joke. No one else could see Yan Qingwu's gaze; only I could. I knew that in that instant, she had experienced a subtle emotional fluctuation towards me. It was just a moment, but it truly gave me the premonition that she might attempt to sever me to prove her path to immortality. But afterward, she closed her eyes, recovering too quickly. Now, recalling it, I can no longer infer her inner thoughts through the eyes of an Ascension Realm powerhouse. In all fairness, it's nearly impossible for an Ascension Realm powerhouse to show such a subtle emotional fluctuation. Before, she had never shown any emotional fluctuation, even when teaching the Love Nine Swords. It was only because the sword technique required emotional changes that I could feel a trace of her lonely detachment when she executed it. In reality, I didn't know what kind of emotional fluctuations she had in her heart. Until just now... Now, recalling it and pondering for a while... I should not die. Wang Mu nodded to himself.

I repaired the Green Frost Sword and helped Yan Qingwu, also aiding the Sword Sect through a crisis. Yan Qingwu is a person who highly values gratitude and righteousness. She has her own principles and is extremely stubborn. Even if she truly determined that I am her Heart Demon and that she needs to cut me down to prove her Immortal Path, she wouldn't strike at this time. When I repaired the Green Frost Sword and even provided Elixirs, I also had this thought: to build up some goodwill and favors in advance. That way, even if I was exposed, she would remember this and wouldn't immediately cut me down. So, once the Green Frost Sword was repaired, I effectively had a temporary protection talisman. But I'm unsure how long it will last. It might be a few days, a few months, or possibly a few years...

Having been disrupted by the Little Sword Spirit earlier, Wang Mu had been a bit panicked. But now, lying on the ground, looking at the blue sky, white clouds, and that pure white figure, his heart was no longer fluttering.

I haven't visited my eldest senior brother yet; I still have things to learn from him, Wang Mu thought. Once I've learned everything, I'll find a chance to slip away. Now that Yan Qingwu has the Divine Sword and the Elixirs, she likely won't have any problems. I need to quickly achieve Foundation Establishment, then leave to travel, prepare subsequent Cultivation Techniques, and then find a Cave Heaven Blessed Land to cultivate and grow in earnest, rapidly rising to Golden Core and Nascent Soul. My current reputation is somewhat established. As the top contender on the Potential List, I should at least not encounter situations where certain places are inaccessible to me when traveling. And then there's the matter of handling the Dan King Sect when they come looking for me… With the Dan King Sect, I hope Chen Feng and Shen Jiao can give me a heads-up first… My line of thinking is correct. No problem there.

At this moment, Yan Qingwu descended. She didn't so much as glance at Wang Mu, merely flicking her hand to cast a spell. The spell fell into the void and immediately transformed into an enigmatic ring of light. Before Wang Mu could finish speaking, Yan Qingwu waved her hand and swept him into it. Then she chanted a mantra and, with a gentle press, the ring of light was sealed away and vanished.

「The next second.」

RUMBLE...

In the void, a ripple of water appeared. A woman wearing a blue brocaded dress adorned with Water Armor emerged, commanding the vast rivers around her. She had a dreamlike appearance, surrounded by endless currents of cold, as if the air itself was solidifying.
