Obtaining the Immortal Sword

Yan Zhao rushed to Cold Ice Lake without stopping. The lake water was bone-chillingly cold, and the surface was covered with a thick layer of ice. He channeled his Immortal Power to break through the ice and descend. As soon as he reached the bottom of the lake, countless ice spikes shot at him from all directions. Yan Zhao wielded his dual swords, deflecting the ice spikes one by one. At this moment, a colossal Ice Dragon swam out from the depths of the lake. Wherever the Ice Dragon passed, the water temperature plummeted, and Yan Zhao felt his Immortal Power circulation slow down. The Ice Dragon opened its massive maw and exhaled a breath of extreme cold. Yan Zhao hurriedly crossed his two Immortal Swords to block, but a thin layer of ice still formed on his body from the frigid air. Gritting his teeth, he mobilized all his Immortal Power. The light from his dual swords intertwined, forming a scorching Sword Qi that slashed towards the Ice Dragon. The Ice Dragon let out a pained roar as it was struck by the Sword Qi. Yan Zhao seized the opportunity, charging at the Ice Dragon and thrusting both swords into its vital spot. The Ice Dragon shattered into ice fragments. In the place where the Ice Dragon had been, Yan Zhao found the third Ancient Immortal Sword, emanating a faint glow. He collected the three Immortal Swords and, with his bountiful gains, embarked on his journey back.

Just as Yan Zhao was about to leave the lakebed, a more powerful aura washed over him. A massive ice coffin slowly rose from the depths of the lake. The lid automatically opened, and an Ice Spirit Female Immortal emerged. She exuded a chilling aura, her eyes fixed coldly on Yan Zhao.

"How dare you slay my Ice Dragon and steal the Ancient Immortal Sword? You will not leave here today," the Ice Spirit Female Immortal said coldly.

Yan Zhao gripped his dual swords, watching her warily. "This Immortal Sword is ownerless. I obtained it through my own abilities. If you intend to stop me, do not blame me for being impolite."

The Ice Spirit Female Immortal waved her hands, and countless Ice Cones shot towards Yan Zhao like raindrops. Yan Zhao dodged nimbly, simultaneously swinging his dual swords to shatter the approaching Ice Cones. He found an opening, channeled his Immortal Power again, and charged at the Ice Spirit Female Immortal, the light of the three Immortal Swords blazing. The Ice Spirit Female Immortal was not to be outdone, conjuring an Ice Shield to defend herself. The two engaged fiercely, turning the lakebed upside down. Just as Yan Zhao began to feel strained, he suddenly thought that the three Immortal Swords might be able to merge into one for greater power. He attempted to fuse the power of the three Immortal Swords. A dazzling light flashed, and a more powerful Immortal Sword appeared in his hand.

Yan Zhao thrust his sword fiercely, finally defeating the Ice Spirit Female Immortal and successfully leaving Cold Ice Lake. As soon as Yan Zhao left Cold Ice Lake with the merged Immortal Sword, he felt the surrounding space distort. It turned out the Ice Spirit Female Immortal had used some secret technique to set up a Space Trap beforehand. Countless sharp Ice Prisms squeezed in from all directions, attempting to crush him. Yan Zhao channeled his Immortal Power, creating a shield centered around the merged Immortal Sword to temporarily withstand the attack. However, the Ice Prisms multiplied, and the pressure intensified, rapidly depleting his Immortal Power. Just as he felt despair, the merged Immortal Sword suddenly emitted a multicolored light, and a mysterious power surged forth, shattering all the Ice Prisms instantly. Before Yan Zhao could breathe a sigh of relief, the Ice Spirit Female Immortal reappeared before him. However, she was now weak, clearly also heavily injured.

"Enough. This Immortal Sword has a connection with you. I will let you go today, but do not think you will always be so lucky." The Ice Spirit Female Immortal vanished. Yan Zhao dared not linger, quickly employing his Immortal Techniques to swiftly depart from this dangerous place. He resolved to study the merged Immortal Sword thoroughly upon his return to improve his strength and face future challenges. After returning to his sect, Yan Zhao recounted his experiences to the Sect Leader. The Sect Leader was greatly shocked and deeply relieved to hear that he had successfully merged three Ancient Immortal Swords and defeated the Ice Spirit Female Immortal. The Sect Leader informed Yan Zhao that the merged Immortal Sword was forged using an Ancient Immortal Method and contained immense secrets, urging him to guard it carefully.

Yan Zhao studied the merged Immortal Sword day and night but could not fully master its power. Just as he was struggling, the sect received news that a group of evil Demon Cultivators were pillaging and plundering nearby villages. Yan Zhao decided to take the merged Immortal Sword and go to vanquish the demons.

Upon arriving at the village, Yan Zhao engaged in a fierce battle with the Demon Cultivators. The Demon Cultivators were powerful, and Yan Zhao struggled at first. But at a critical moment, the merged Immortal Sword seemed to sense Yan Zhao's firm will and once again emitted a multicolored light, a surge of powerful energy flowing into Yan Zhao's body. Wielding the Immortal Sword, Yan Zhao moved as if no one could stop him, instantly overwhelming the Demon Cultivators and successfully rescuing the village. Through this battle, Yan Zhao's control over the merged Immortal Sword deepened, and he looked forward to shining brightly on his path of cultivation in the future.
