Handy Weapons

Lu Rang and Long Zixuan both agreed immediately!

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing a hint of excitement and anticipation.

Seeing this, Li Fan nodded and said, "Alright, in that case, you can go with Qian Ning and the others."

"Yes, sir!"

The two immediately spoke.

"Hmm... since we're going to have a group fight, not having weapons is definitely not a good idea. You guys need to find some handy weapons..."

Li Fan pondered for a moment and said, "I do have a few sharp weapons, but if I hand them over to you, I'm afraid it will lead to bloodshed... So, you two take a look around this courtyard and see if there are any weapons that suit your needs."

He asked a question.

The system had previously rewarded him with several swords and spears, but those items were all very sharp.

Li Fan had some experience in group fights; carrying a sharp weapon could easily cause casualties, and the price would be too high.

However, upon hearing Li Fan's words, the group instantly understood.

"The weapons Senior Li mentioned... are probably World-Ending artifacts. This realm simply cannot withstand them, so they cannot be used lightly!"

Huo Ling'er had an expression that said, "I know what's going on."

Long Zixuan and Lu Rang stood up and said, "Yes, ma'am, we'll go find it right away."

Their gazes then swept across the courtyard.

After these past few days, they have come to realize that this Small Courtyard is full of terrifying artifacts, any one of which could be astonishing.

For example, Lu Rang knew that the hoe he used to till the land was definitely superior to a celestial artifact, and its grade was unimaginable. He was already at the Mahayana Realm, but he could still barely lift it, and that was without causing the hoe's Dao Rhyme to fluctuate.

For example, the bowl that Long Zixuan to hold the bait was terrifying to him; he suspected that the bowl could suppress a real dragon!

"This Small Courtyard contains countless treasures, but with our current cultivation level, we can only use a very small fraction of them... That's why Master instructed us to act according to our abilities and choose what we can control!"

Long Zixuan Sound Dao to Lu Rang.

Lu Rang nodded, somewhat troubled, and said, "The things here in Master's place are all too extraordinary. We can't use any of them..."

Long Zixuan scanned the Small Courtyard, and suddenly, he remembered something and said, "I remember now!"

He immediately strode into the kitchen.

Then he came back carrying a drab gray stick.

Fire poker!

"Yes, how come I didn't think of that?"

Lu Rang slapped his forehead!

This fire poker is also something that surpasses even immortal artifacts, but perhaps because a few disciples occasionally need to tend the fire, they can still manage to use it.

"I gave you something too!"

Long Zixuan smiled slightly and actually took out a chopstick!

A wooden chopstick!

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Lu Rang exclaimed "Good!" repeatedly, took the chopsticks, and was overjoyed.

His cultivation level was the lowest, and he already found it very difficult to eat with just two chopsticks, as these chopsticks were rare treasures.

One chopstick was just right, and he could manage to use it, albeit with some difficulty.

"Master, we have both chosen our weapons!"

Long Zixuan reported to Li Fan.

Looking at the weapons his two apprentices had chosen, Li Fan suddenly began to doubt himself...

Are these two idiots?

He didn't give them weapons for fear of causing death, and he might end up in jail. But these two, one chose a fire poker, and the other chose chopsticks?

Is this what it looks like they're about to get into a group fight...?

This is suicide mission.

He was speechless.

Well, it seems these two really don't have much fighting experience; they're just there to make up the numbers.

"Alright, I won't say anything more. Just keep your distance when you fight, and don't hurt yourselves."

Li Fan could only offer this advice: he hoped his two apprentices wouldn't foolishly rush to the front.

The two nodded like chicks pecking at rice. Their master was so thoughtful; knowing they weren't yet capable of wielding such a terrifying weapon, he had specifically instructed them...

"Thank you, senior. In that case, we will go back and inform Senior Yuan Yang and the others. They will be overjoyed to know that you have sent out a disciple."

Mu Qianning spoke up happily.

Go ahead.

Li Fan nodded.

Immediately, Long Zixuan and Lu Rang left together with Huo Ling'er and the others.

"Master... actually, if our two junior brothers can't win... let's go next time."

After they left, Nan Feng spoke up.

The reason she was unwilling to volunteer earlier was because she and Ziling, one a quasi-immortal and the other Supreme... it would be too Martial Virtue for them to compete with the younger generation.

Li Fan was stunned when he heard this. A girl who plays the piano suddenly saying she wanted to take her junior sister who paints out to get into a brawl? It was just too damn incongruous...

Outside world.

Luofu Holy Land.

"Haha, I have broken through to the eighth level of the Mahayana realm!"

A young man in a golden robe stood before a waterfall, laughing heartily, exuding an aura of power!

In just two days, he went from the first level of the Void Realm to the seventh level of Mahayana Realm!

What does this mean!?

This is a remarkable leap forward!

"Hehe, Senior Brother Wu Ming, I'm slightly inferior to you, but I've still reached Mahayana eighth level of the Mahayana realm!"

Beside him, a rather thin young man with a sinister look in his eyes also spoke with a smile.

"You two have received the master's favor. This time, you must conquer the entire Southern Domain for my Luofu Holy Land!"

Looking at the two, the Holy Lord Luofu was filled with excitement and confidence!

Among the younger generation of the entire Profound Heaven Realm, those who can reach the Void Integration Stage are considered the most outstanding geniuses in the Holy Land.

For example, Wu Ming, who had previously reached the first level of the Void Realm, was already a peerless genius renowned throughout the Central Plains before coming to the Southern Domain.

Now, he has even broken through to Mahayana eighth level of the Mahayana realm, a level that is enough to make him stand out among the older generation!

How can other forces compete with the Luofu Holy Land?

This time, dominating the entire Southern Domain is just around the corner!

Above the waterfall, a middle-aged man dressed in linen stood with his hands behind his back, coldly watching the group below.

"... He burned through all his potential and life force to reach the pinnacle of his abilities for three days, yet he couldn't even enter the Immortal Path... What a waste."

He shook his head. "I only hope that you two good-for-nothings can help me glean some clues about the person behind this fight..."

Divine Sword Sect!

"Bass--"

The longsword sliced through the air, unleashing unparalleled Sword Qi, like a long dragon, incredibly powerful!

"Has Senior Brother Cao Shuang broken through to the Venerable Realm?!"

"That's incredible!"

Xia Tong and Zhang Dujian both looked at Cao Shuang with shock and admiration!

Cao Shuang laughed heartily, sheathed his longsword, and exuded an aura of invincibility. He said, "Perfect timing! I've taken one step further than you, crossing the line between the Mahayana and Integrated Body Realm!"

His eyes were filled with smugness!

Xia Tong and Zhang Dujian were both only at the Mahayana Stage, but he went much further and entered the Venerable realm.

"Senior Brother is not even thirty years old, is he? Venerable is not even thirty years old... unprecedented throughout history!"

Xia Tong looked at Cao Shuang, her eyes filled with admiration!

"With the arrival of this sword, Senior Brother, the Divine Sword Sect will leap to become the largest sect in the Southern Domain!"

Zhang Dujian also praised it!

In a nearby pavilion, Cao Yijian knelt down excitedly before Luo Ming, saying, "Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! Our Divine Sword Sect will serve you with our lives!"

Cao Shuang is his grandson, and now he has become Venerable!

This is a momentous event that will be recorded in the entire history of cultivation in the Profound Heaven Realm!

There is hope that the Divine Sword Sect can become a holy land... or even surpass it.

As for this written test? He believed that there was no need to even take it. If the outside world knew that his grandson had become Venerable... all sides would surrender immediately!

Luo Ming simply smiled and said, "If your performance this time satisfies me, you will receive even more."

Cao Yijian immediately kowtowed.

Luo Ming thought coldly, "If you can satisfy me, perhaps after the written test I can bestow one or two immortal pills to prolong the lives of your three useless grand-disciples. Otherwise, let their life essence burn out completely, and their souls perish—"

Now.

Taiyan Holy Land.

When the Yuanyang Holy Lord and the Holy Lord Lingchao learned of Huo Ling'er's return, they came out to greet them from afar with utmost respect.

"Goddess, Qianning Goddess, what did Senior Li say? Who are these two?"

The Holy Lord Lingchao spoke.

Huo Ling'er immediately replied, "Senior Li learned of this matter and sent his two recently accepted disciples to help us!"

She introduced them, "This is Lu Rang, and this is Long Zixuan!"

Lu Rang and Long Zixuan also bowed slightly and said, "We have come to assist in the battle on our master's orders!"

Immediately, both the Yuanyang Holy Lord and the Holy Lord Lingchao were overjoyed!

With Senior Li's disciple personally taking action, what is there to worry about?

"By the way, Young Master Long, your aura seems to bear a slight resemblance to that of the Sacred Dragon Dynasty?"

At this moment, the Yuanyang Holy Lord suddenly asked a question.

Long Zixuan did not deny it, saying, "To be honest, before I became your disciple, I was a deposed prince of the Sacred Dragon Dynasty!"

Lu Rang also said casually, "Before becoming an apprentice, I was an outer disciple of the Divine Sword Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Yuanyang Holy Lord and the Holy Lord Lingchao were even more shocked.

"I vaguely remember hearing about the deposed prince of the Sacred Dragon Dynasty, whose dragon soul was crippled and unable to cultivate. But Young Master... your aura..."

Ling Chao asked, somewhat surprised.

Even though he was already a quasi-immortal, he could still feel the dragon soul energy within Long Zixuan's body, which was extremely surging and incredibly powerful. Moreover, his cultivation level had reached the Venerable Realm!

At the same time, he also glanced at Lu Rang.

Lu Rang, an outer disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, should be at the very bottom, yet he has actually reached Mahayana eighth level of the Mahayana realm!

A deposed prince, a low-level outer disciple, can possess such cultivation? Is this even fair?!

But Long Zixuan laughed and said, "That's right, our progress is all thanks to our teacher!"

Upon hearing this, both Holy Lord Lingchao and Yuanyang Holy Lord had complex expressions, but their doubts instantly vanished.

"That's right, how can we judge Senior Li's disciple by ordinary standards!"

Yuan Yang spoke, but a faint hint of envy flickered in his old eyes.

Even a useless person can shine with unparalleled brilliance in Senior Li's hands... It's a pity that I'm really too old.

He was heartbroken.

Soon, the third day arrived!

Today is the day the younger generation of the Southern Domain and the Four Great Regions will clash!

This battle will determine the fate of the Southern Domain!
