Can the natal sword be used like this?

If you combine Limitless Combo with Serendipitous Critical Strike, once you get into a combo, it's no longer Serendipitous Critical Strike, but rather critical hits that happen at will.

Another feature of the Limitless Combo is that it can stun the enemy! The stun time may be long or short, and the enemy will be unable to retaliate for a period of time. This way, Xiao Ran doesn't even need to land a critical hit himself; a third party can deliver the fatal blow.

For example, autonomous mechanical Yan Armor...

Xiao Ran was eager to test the power of the Limitless Combo.

This move cannot be performed by one person alone; someone needs to be tested on it.

Master and Chuyan are already asleep.

My Senior Uncle -law is too tired from refining pills, so I'm too embarrassed to bother her anymore...

Let's skip it tonight.

Xiao Ran returned to his Disciple Quarters and lay down on the large eight-square-meter bed.

The dragon Spiritual Energy vortex spun in the Qi Sea, gathering the Spiritual Power from the previous medicinal residue and forming Spiritual Pressure close to that of the Spirit Severing Realm.

In addition, the newly learned Limitless Combo technique kept appearing in his mind.

Early the next morning.

Xiao Ran went to take a look at the Hot Spring Pool.

The fog was still very thick, and the peach blossoms drifted tirelessly, disappearing into the fog.

Walking into the fog,

What was Master's posture when he left last night? What shape is he still in now?

Despite his frequent drunken stupor and unsteadiness, Master is remarkably well-behaved when he sleeps.

After soaking overnight, the rosy complexion faded, and the skin became whiter, more radiant, and more delicate, as if it had been moisturized with a face mask.

Chuyan, standing to the side, was clearly unable to withstand the pure and powerful essence of the bone broth. She rolled around in the water, and in the morning she lay in the pool, constantly bubbling. A few Warm Water Fish frolicked among her waist, elbows, and leg bones.

Fortunately, she was a cultivator and wouldn't drown.

Looking at the quiet yet comical scene before him, Xiao Ran shook his head and laughed.

After three years of living alone, I now have Master who has taken me as a disciple, and I feel a bit more at home.

Xiao Ran didn't wake them up, and turned to go to Sword-Tempering Mountain.

Sword-Tempering Mountain has been very busy lately because the number of orders from the Dao Alliance has doubled.

Xiao Ran arrived and waited at the mountain gate for quite a while, but there was no one to greet him.

They simply barged into the inner hall and waited for Gao Shi for a quarter of an hour.

Gao Shi reverted to his work clothes, which concealed his eyes and ears with iron rings. He was tall and thin, covered in dust and scorch marks. The sword-carved patterns on the iron rings shimmered with a dark red light, giving him a somewhat cold appearance.

Xiao Ran looked around. Junior Sister Zhehui was not there, which meant that Gao Shi's carefree days were over.

Upon seeing Xiao Ran arrive, Gao Shi quickly brewed Xiao Ran a cup of Flame Cool Tea.

"I heard you made a big splash in Chaos City and even obtained the Divine Martial Kingdom's Yan Armor. Is that true?"

Xiao Ran picked up the Cooling Tea and took a sip. Although the tea was brewed hastily, the taste was not compromised at all.

"I came here for this very reason."

Gao Shi also sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

"It seems you've gotten stronger. I bet the Divine Martial Kingdom not only hasn't pursued the whereabouts of the Yan Armor, but will even invite you to visit the Divine Martial Kingdom."

Xiao Ran was taken aback.

"How do you know so much, senior brother?"

With great effort, Gao Shi removed the iron ring blindfold, revealing a slightly disheveled, boyish face with a bit of a beard.

"Because back then, they invited me in the same way, saying that Divine Martial Kingdom life-sized female puppets that could chat and spray water. If it weren't for Uncle Ling Zhou coming to Zongzhi Mountain and bringing a large number of female fans to the sect, I would have actually gone. Now that I think about it, I would have regretted it to the core if it weren't for Junior Sister Zhehui, that dark and dreary life of blacksmithing."

Single people have a lot of grievances! Xiao Ran put down his teacup.

"Come on, let's go to the Sword Plaza. I'll show you my Yan Armor."

The front of Sword-Tempering Mountain only has a mountain gate and a gravel road, while Sword Plaza is located on the back mountainside. It is quite large and has three sides of sand and stone Precipice.

Xiao Ran took out a humanoid mechanical Yan Armor that was ten feet tall.

A majestic figure, a cold face, and tattered, black scales...

Gao Shi's expression was solemn as he patted the black iron on the ankle of the Yan Armor puppet.

"No wonder the Divine Martial Kingdom was so eager to win me over back then. The forging process is so poor, it's unbearable to look at."

Is that bad enough?

Xiao Ran thought his scale armor was awesome, but it turned out to be trash in Gao Shi's eyes?

Gao Shi walked into the Yan Armor and looked it over inside and out. When he arrived at the cockpit, he saw the Synchronization Chamber stuck on the ground and frowned slightly.

"What's inside this coffin box should be some kind of soul soup that connects the soul to control the Yan Armor."

"Soul Soup... that's about right."

"If you want to repair the Yan Armor, I can finely polish and coat the outer shell after it's forged, but you'll have to go to the Divine Martial Kingdom for the damaged Spirit Runes and this soul soup."

"That's exactly what I'm planning to do."

Xiao Ran nodded, then added:

"Besides that, I think the Yan Core is not stable enough, the output is not high, and the connectivity is not good. I want to fuse my Lifebound Sword into the Yan Core, retain the complete sword pattern, and improve the output and control. What do you think?"

Gao Shi stared at Xiao Ran in surprise, captivated by this imaginative idea, and it took him a long time to seriously consider its possibility.

"This is very difficult..."

Xiao Ran continued, "I also want to integrate the tourism features of the Sword Ship into the Yan Armor, and the Yan Armor should also be equipped with an automatic target acquisition combat mode."

Gao Shi felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly said, "I can try fusing the Lifebound Sword into the Yan Core, but the rest will damage the original structure and Spirit Runes of the Yan Armor. You will have to redesign the blueprints and disassemble the Yan Armor and Sword Ship to reassemble them into a new Yan Armor."

Xiao Ran thought the same thing, and then took out his Lifebound Sword and handed it to Gao Shi.

"Then let's dismantle it. You take off the Yan Core of the Yan Armor first, and I'll hand over my Lifebound Sword to you. Let me know when you're done."

Gao Shi was surprised by Xiao Ran's decisiveness, as if he had planned it all along.

"Sure, but I'm very busy lately, so it might not be that quick. Come pick it up in three days."

Xiao Ran said, "It's alright. Thank you very much, Senior Brother. When I return from the Divine Martial Kingdom, I'll bring you a few life-size puppets as a token of my gratitude."

Gao Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly waved his hand with a cold face, saying:

"Don't say that, I Dao Companion."

That's true, but that very night, Gao Shi melted his Lifebound Sword into the Yan Core and personally delivered it to the Sword-Wielding Mountain.

It took him two and a half days earlier than his original plan of three days.

After Gao Shi left, Xiao Ran placed the Yan Core in the center of the Sword Plaza and studied it carefully.

The size of the Yan Core is the same as before, a refined iron sphere as tall as a person, with six evenly spaced interfaces on its six sides, and extremely complex and delicate deep patterns engraved on its surface.

It gives people a sense of vastness, like seeing the starry sky.

Resonance Divine Sense penetrated deep into the Yan Core and could clearly see that the sword material and refined iron were fused very evenly, and the sword pattern was completely preserved.

In this way, Spiritual Power can drive the sword patterns, allowing the Yan Armor to wield the sword and slash.

Xiao Ran was filled with admiration.

Unexpectedly, Gao Shi's methods were even more advanced than he had imagined; in some aspects, he had even surpassed Elder Mo Xia! However, surprisingly, even with his maxed-out Resonance Divine Sense searching the entire Yan Core, Xiao Ran couldn't find any hidden doors left by Gao Shi ...

Meanwhile, Little Mist in the Black Ring Group remained silent, revealing her plans to modify her Yan Armor.

Could it be that Gao Shi Brother Gao is not Little Mist? Xiao Ran was completely puzzled.

At this moment.

Lingzhou Yue got dressed and came out of the hot spring.

He dried his wet hair with a bamboo fiber towel.

After a night of cleansing with Dragon Bone Soup, I felt incredibly clear-headed, relaxed, and with a clear mind.

Upon arriving at the Sword Plaza, they saw Xiao Ran playing with a black iron ball that was taller than a person and covered with Spirit Runes, which made them somewhat curious.

"What's this?"

"The Yan Core of the Yan Armor."

Xiao Ran, still observing with his divine sense, said without raising his head:

"I had Gao Shi Brother Gao fuse my Lifebound Sword into it, so that I can control the Yan Armor even when I'm outside of Yan Armor, which is like having a powerful helper."

Lingzhou Yue tilted her head, wiping her hair, and water splashed all over Xiao Ran's face.

"Can Lifebound Sword be used like this?"

Xiao Ran wiped his face, the water stains carrying a faint sweet fragrance of peach blossoms.

He glanced at his Master. After one night, his aura remained unchanged, but his skin had become supple and radiant, making people want to pinch it.

However, for safety reasons, he endured it.

"Actually, there are many ways to use a sword."

Lingzhou Yue dried her hair, summoned a weed from the edge of the cliff, tied the stem into a knot behind her head, and her sword aura emerged.

"Then you don't have your Lifebound Sword anymore?"

Xiao Ran said, "My Lifebound Sword is the natal Yan. Of course, the sword pattern in the Yan Core is still complete. The sword material and the Yan Core material are different. In the future, the sword material can still be extracted using chemical methods and reforged."

After tying her hair up, Lingzhou Yue stretched languidly, revealing her taut body. She lifted her leg, sat cross-legged on top of the Yan Core, took out Wine Bamboo Tube, and drank it all in one gulp.

"If you dismantle the Yan Core, will the Yan Armor still be usable?"

Xiao Ran explained, "I need to redesign it, have Gao Shi Brother Gao forge the key components, then assemble them in the Divine Martial Kingdom, and then bring them back for rework and polishing."

Lingzhou Yue raised an eyebrow.

"You're going to the Divine Martial Kingdom?"

"Yes."

"The Divine Martial Kingdom is so boring. It's all military and underground caves where magical artifacts are made. There's nothing fun about it. There aren't even any brothels or gambling dens. I'm too lazy to go there."

Xiao Ran had already planned for this.

"It's okay, I can go by myself."

Are you sure you can handle it?

"OK."

A man cannot say he can't.

Lingzhou Yue pouted her dewy red lips, like peach petals glistening with dew.

"You can do it, but I can't. Before you leave, you have to update my picture books more often, preferably up to the time of our wedding, so you don't leave me hanging in limbo."

I'll try my best.

Xiao Ran nodded and quickly changed the subject.

Where is Chuyan?

Lingzhou Yue pouted.

"It's still bubbling at the bottom of the water; the power of the Dragon Bone Soup is still a bit too strong for her."

Xiao Ran was a little worried, after all, the small body submerged at the bottom of the water looked like it had been dumped as a corpse.

"Is she alright? Chunwa and Qiuchan are only at the Qi Refining, and they drink even more soup, but I've never seen her act this exaggeratedly."

"Can a demon beast's absorption power be the same as a human's?"

"That's true."

Chunwa and Qiuchan, they really are monsters...

Xiao Ran thought to himself.

Chuyan didn't wake up from the water until dark, feeling dazed and confused.

As if irrigated with essence, the Spiritual Power in his body became more refined and his foundation more stable.

But he becomes adorably silly and does a bit foolish.

Upon arriving at Sword Plaza, she clung tightly to Lingzhou Yue's arm, pouting slightly:

"Grandmaster, please examine my body. I'm afraid Xiao Ran got me pregnant last night."

Xiao Ran remained calm and watched quietly to see how far she could go with her flirtatious behavior.

Lingzhou Yue was a little confused. Xiao Ran that brave?

Where can I get checked?

Chuyan hurriedly said:

"This won't do, we need to go to the room."

Xiao Ran couldn't stand it anymore. He grabbed Chuyan's left arm and pulled up her light green Smoky Shirt to reveal her fair and delicate arm, as well as a bright red dot on her elbow.

"You still have your virginity mark, don't try to smear my innocence out of thin air!"

Can this still prove innocence? Lingzhou Yue curiously rolled up her sleeve and found a pea-sized cinnabar dot in the same spot, but it was not as bright red as Chuyan's and was somewhat dim.

Why is the color of my virginity mark so light?

She suddenly remembered something and turned to stare at Xiao Ran:

"You wouldn't..."

Xiao Ran was impressed by his Master's knowledge of physiology. What have you learned after decades of pestering your Senior Uncle?

Xiao Ran laughed in exasperation, deliberately saying:

"Yes, I did it all, so what are you going to do about it!"

Lingzhou Yue jumped off the Yan Core and circled around Xiao Ran, carefully examining him.

"Have some soup. You seem stronger now; you're speaking with more confidence."

A gust of cold wind swept by, and the atmosphere on the Sword Plaza suddenly became tense.

Chuyan, knowing her place, immediately stepped back.

I moved a clean stone, used it to Fanghua, and started eating sunflower seeds and peanuts.

Xiao Ran also stood up from his cross-legged position, straightened his back, and said with an air of grandeur:

"While you're sleeping and soaking in hot springs, what do you think I'm doing? Rather than giving birth, I choose to practice martial arts and save the world!"

"That's a nice way to put it."

Lingzhou Yue stretched and relaxed, but deliberately entered a fighting state to give her precious disciple face and test his training results.

"Since you insist on being bitten, I'll test whether you can withstand my mouth."

Xiao Ran turned his head away, dismissing the look with disdain.

"Ha, I've kissed your lips before, nothing special."

Did Xiao Ran his Grandmaster's lips?

Chuyan was speechless, only to find that her Grandmaster had vanished before her eyes, leaving behind only a vortex of energy.

Xiao Ran suddenly drew his sword.

However, his Master had already appeared behind him, and the overwhelming Spiritual Pressure rendered him unable to move.

The next moment.

Lingzhou Yue bit his right neck.

With a ferocious bite like a lioness, the teeth instantly sank into Xiao Ran's throat, and then...

It's come to a standstill.

After a moment of sharp pain, Xiao Ran felt his Master's full, soft red lips.

It was as if this was a deliberate attempt to refute his unremarkable statement.

A jolt of electricity coursed through his body, Xiao Ran instantly felt weak.

"Master, you've got it wrong. In my hometown, 'ordinary' is a compliment."

Lingzhou Yue then relented and put her elbow on Xiao Ran's shoulder.

"If I hadn't let go in time, I could have bitten your head off."

Xiao Ran smiled and said:

"My head was severed, but my sword also pierced my Master's Dantian."

Lingzhou Yue looked down.

It really was true! Xiao Ran's sword tip was indeed pressed against her lower abdomen.

But she didn't feel anything at all.

It's clear the sword is inadequate...

"I could really bite your head off, but I doubt your sword could even break through my clothes."

Xiao Ran was still immersed in the intoxicating touch of his Master's red lips and could not extricate himself.

"So Master won."

Lingzhou Yue was also slightly surprised by Xiao Ran's progress.

"However, you have indeed made progress. With a little more practice, you should be able to take first place in this year's top talents competition. I can let you go to the Divine Martial Kingdom with peace of mind. Even if you go on missions with me, I won't have to do anything for you most of the time."

I didn't quite understand Chuyan.

"He's not that powerful. Grandmaster, you went easy on him, didn't you?"

Xiao Ran turned around and said:

"You try it, I'll let you have some water too."

Chuyan had already figured out Xiao Ran's rhetoric, and was busy tattling to her Grandmaster.

"Grandmaster, look, he's saying dirty things again."

The Lingzhou Yue.

What is nonsense?

Early the next morning.

Huangfu Qun led two Dao Alliance Deacon to Sword-Wielding Mountain, bringing Xiao Ran's mission letter.

The task description made no mention of accountability; it only contained one task—

Exterminate the Apostle.

Limited to one year.

Of course, Xiao Ran wasn't the only one tasked with this.

Xing Tian Pavilion and Wraith Punishment Bureau, both from the Dao Alliance Headquarters, will send people to carry out joint operations.

In addition, all Five Great Powers received invitations from the Dao Alliance.

Unlike the other people's invited missions, Xiao Ran's mission was one that had to be carried out, regardless of success or failure.

Seeing the doubt on Xiao Ran's face, Huangfu Qun explained:

"This is a special training exercise arranged by the Dao Alliance for you, so there's no need to worry about your safety. By the way, would Ling Zhou like to come along?"

Lingzhou Yue pouted and said:

"Is there any need to say that? With those idiots from the Dao Alliance, Xiao Ran would be nothing but bones when he came back."

Was it drained dry by some giant python?

Xiao Ran was a little scared.

"Then there's even less to worry about."

Huangfu Qun continued:

"Ten days later, all participants in this mission will meet in Chaos City to formulate a unified plan to eliminate the enemy."

Xiao Ran nodded.

"It's not a big problem. I'll go to the Divine Martial Kingdom in a few days. If I make it back to the sect, I'll return. If I don't, I'll go directly from the Divine Martial Kingdom to Chaos City and meet up with my Master there."

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Qun suddenly tensed up, his gloomy, knife-carved features seeming to cleave the morning breeze.

What are you going to the Divine Martial Kingdom for?

Xiao Ran smiled and said:

"Uncle- Senior Uncle Huangfu, don't be nervous. I'm just going to upgrade the Yan Armor."

Huangfu Qun breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Don't delay too long, I heard things aren't very peaceful over there right now."

"Um."

That day.

Xiao Ran didn't go out; he stayed at Sword-Wielding Mountain designing Yan Armor.

The Yan Core has been developed; the rated output power is at the Spirit Severing Realm.

Human Armor mode, the main combat mode, is retained.

Snake Armor Mode, primarily stealth, retained.

Spherical mode, primarily for stealth and defense, is retained.

These three modes remain unchanged.

The shuttle-shaped mode has been transformed into Sword Ship mode.

The protective shield is closed during high-speed flight.

With the top down, you can go for a drive and it retains all the comfort features of the previous Sword Ship.

In addition, Xiao Ran designed a Vermilion Bird mode.

You can stuff the Single-Winged Bird into the cockpit, directly activate the Dharma Body to cover the bird armor, combine the power of the divine beast with the power of the Yan Armor, and take off!

The transformation Spirit Runes and joint materials were rewritten to make transformations even faster.

That evening, Xiao Ran went to Sword-Tempering Mountain and showed the blueprints to Gao Shi to see which materials and components Sword-Tempering Mountain could provide.

The Gao Shi was both impressed and disgusted by Xiao Ran's imaginative design.

"Your design will probably cost at least a million Spirit Stone."

Xiao Ran was confident and prepared.

"It's alright, I can sell the blueprints and Spirit Runes to the Divine Martial Kingdom and have them make a verification machine for me for free."

The Gao Shi had nothing to say.

"As expected of you."

The next day.

Gao Shi then sent some Mystic Magnet Iron, Flame Stone, and a Spirit Inscription Carving Knife that he designed himself to Sword-Wielding Mountain, which Sword-Tempering Mountain could provide.

Xiao Ran was somewhat taken aback, not expecting him to be so quick.

"Thank you, senior brother."

The Gao Shi said meaningfully, "I don't need you to thank me verbally, just remember what I gave you."

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment before realizing about the female puppet.

"Nature."

Two days later.

Chunwa and Qiuchan arrived at Sword-Wielding Mountain and told Xiao Ran that his Spirit Gathering Pill had been refined.

At the same time, the Wraith Poison of the Single-Winged Bird was suppressed and sealed into the Dantian, so it could eat meat.

The two girls talked excitedly as they pulled Xiao Ran toward Hundred Herbs Peak.
