Breakthrough, Dao Xuan

"Master, you never gave us a Sword-Storing Dao Treasure like that back then."

In the distance, Bai Zhanlou glanced at the battlefield strewn with devastation and spoke with a trace of dissatisfaction.

Elder Changming gave a light cough. "This thing is far too troublesome to make. Back then, I didn't even have the ability to craft one."

Elder Changming said earnestly,
