"Patriarch Ling, our Ancient Sword Sect will henceforth be a vassal force of Young Master Qin. If the Ling Family ever has troubles, the Ancient Sword Sect will surely not stand by idly."

Elder Gu You, standing nearby, also chimed in.

Upon hearing this, Ling Quan's eyes shone with a bright light, and he solemnly nodded his head.

It seems Young Master Qin has already brought the Ancient Sword Sect under his control. If he keeps holding animosity towards the Ancient Sword Sect, it's really unnecessary.

"Young Master Qin, Sect Leader Ling Jianzi, and the esteemed elders, please come in."

At this moment, Ling Quan led Qin Yang, Ling Jianzi, and others into the villa.

After a sumptuous dinner, it was already nine in the evening. The Ling family's villa was enormous, like a palace, housing a few more people posed no issue, and Ling Quan assigned rooms to each guest.

Having had a busy day, Qin Yang returned to his own bedroom. As for setting up the Spirit Gathering Array for the Ling Family, it was already late and would have to wait until the next day.

After a comfortable bath, Qin Yang sat cross-legged on the bed and began to take stock of the gains from this journey.

This trip to Nanyun was quite bountiful.

After slaying the Black Poison Gu King, he obtained from it a broken Storage Bag, two thousand Spirit Stones, a set of Ghost Dao Array Flags, a Blood Soul Banner, and a Yin Soul Pearl used for nurturing ghost creatures.

Then there was the Spirit Jade Ore Vein, and in the Ancient Sword Sect, he acquired the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, the Cyan Frost Sword, as well as the Star Meteor Heavy Sword that could shield against Divine Sense.

Among these treasures, the most useful to Qin Yang were the two thousand Spirit Stones, the Spirit Jade Ore Vein, and the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.

"Huff."

Qin Yang exhaled lightly, his dark eyes flashing with delight. The next task was to refine the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.

At that moment, Qin Yang made a gesture with his right hand, and the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword floated out from the Spatial Storage Talisman, hovering in front of him.

"The Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, a superior Spiritual Treasure, can be refined into one's Lifebound Spiritual Treasure. After refining, one's power will increase significantly."

With a steady gaze, Qin Yang's heart and spirit stirred as a drop of essence blood floated out from his body and then dripped onto the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.

Buzz~!

The Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword emitted a cold and chilling light, vibrating intensely with a buzzing sound as Qin Yang's drop of essence blood slowly permeated the sword.

For a moment, the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword vibrated incessantly, enveloping in a faint red glow.

"With my blood, I nourish my weapon, hasten!"

Qin Yang's eyes, deep and black, concentrated all his heart and spirit on refining the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword. With a low exclamation and hands forming seals, the faint red glow on the sword was absorbed into the blade, becoming reserved.

A layer of ice-white shield rose from the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, upon which a white dragon pattern appeared. The crimson blood began to soak into the dragon's head, then the body, and finally the tail.

Once the crimson blood fully saturated the white dragon pattern.

The essence blood sacrifice on the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword was complete, and after imprinting it with Divine Sense, it could be stored within Qin Yang's Sea of Consciousness.

Refining a Spiritual Treasure is a process that exhausts a great deal of heart power and Spiritual Power, and without careful attention, one might suffer backlash, so undivided focus is crucial.

At that moment, Qin Yang closed his eyes, entering into the process of refinement.

He kept his eyes closed for three hours, and when he reopened them, it was already midnight. The bright moonlight streamed in through the window.

Upon opening his tightly shut eyes, a light flickered in Qin Yang's gaze. At that instant, the white dragon pattern was fully saturated.

The Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword erupted with a brilliant ice-white light, illuminating the entire room.

Whoosh~!

A colossal white dragon's shadow ascended from the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, then pierced through the villa, soaring into the night sky.

A clear dragon's roar resounded throughout the night.

This clear dragon's roar stunned everyone in the villa, many leaned against the windows, staring at the white dragon shadow in the sky.

The white dragon thrusted its claws and fangs, and a few moments later, it slowly became insubstantial against the night sky.

"What exactly did Young Master Qin do to evoke such a spectacle?"

Upon witnessing this scene, Sect Leader Ling Jianzi, Elder Gu You, and others were filled with shock, knowing that this must have been evoked by Young Master Qin.

Buzz~!

In Qin Yang's room, the ice-white glow from the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword receded, restoring the sword's original appearance.

However, at this moment, Qin Yang could distinctly sense a newfound connection between the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword and his heart and spirit.

"Divine Sense Imprint."

From within Qin Yang's brow, Divine Sense surged forth, impressing his Divine Sense Imprint upon the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.

"Collect!"

With a thought, the Dragon Roar Sword rapidly shrank, transforming into a streak of light and entering the Sea of Consciousness within his brow.

Qin Yang's Sea of Consciousness was a small piece of the starry sky, with three small stars suspended above, emitting faint starlight.

Beneath this sea of stars in the Sea of Consciousness, the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword quietly hovered.

"Successfully refined!"

Qin Yang's eyes were full of surprise and delight. The Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword had been completely refined, becoming Qin Yang's Lifebound Spiritual Treasure. With a single thought, the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword could appear.

"Huff."

Qin Yang exhaled softly, recounting the numerous tasks he had completed that day. He had battled with members of the Ancient Sword Sect in the morning, unearthed the Spirit Jade Ore Vein, then rode a Demon Beast Mount to the Ancient Sword Sect, helped Elder Gu You refine elixirs, and arranged an array, exhausting much of his heart power.

Qin Yang got out of bed, freshened up, then lay back on the soft bed and closed his eyes, finally falling asleep.

Of course, don't think that a cultivator loses awareness of the outside world upon sleeping. On the contrary, if danger arises, they can awaken immediately.

As Qin Yang entered his slumber, it was already midnight.

Meanwhile, in France, seven time zones from Huaxia, it was five in the evening.

Southwest France.

At dusk, the glow of the setting sun spread across the sky, casting its light on the beautiful Garonne River.

The Garonne River shimmered with sparkling waves, verdant and undulating, with many French men and women dressed in summer attire enjoying the view from yachts along the riverbanks.

On one side of the Garonne River, the city of Bordeaux sat quietly, bathed in the light of the setting sun, famous as the world-renowned wine city of France.

Bordeaux wines are smooth and refined, here being their place of origin.

In the outskirts of Bordeaux city, the glow of the setting sun also shone upon its sprawling hundred thousand hectares of vineyards, where each plump and luscious grape was immensely enticing.

This region is home to more than eight thousand wineries, all belonging to that ancient French family, the Bordeaux Clan!
