She reached out both hands, intending to grasp the hilt and pull it out for cleaning.

However, the moment her fingers touched the hilt.

"BOOM!"

An indescribable sense of heaviness surged forth; Zhu Zhuqing felt as if she were not holding a sword, but an entire Primordial Divine Mountain!

"Rise!!!"

Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth, her level 45 soul power erupting in full force. With the Nether Spirit Cat possessed, she exerted every ounce of strength she possessed.

Yet, the sword remained unmoved, not even trembling in the slightest!

How is this possible?!

Zhu Zhuqing was horrified. With her current strength, lifting a thousand-jin boulder with one hand would be effortless.

But this sword—she could not even lift it?

"Heh."

Deep within the divine hall, that lazy voice sounded once more, carrying a hint of mockery:

"This Seat forgot; you are too weak."

"This Daluo Sword Embryo is as heavy as a star; even gods cannot wield it with ease."

"Forget it."

As the voice faded, a gentle stream of chaos energy descended from the void, coiling around the blade.

The impossibly heavy black sword instantly became light, floating automatically before Zhu Zhuqing.

"This is Chaos Spirit Spring water; use it to wipe the blade."

A jade basin flew from the void, filled with half a basin of clear water radiating chaotic mist, along with a seemingly ordinary white rag.

Zhu Zhuqing took the rag with trembling hands, and upon receiving it, she nearly collapsed to her knees again.

This rag was actually woven from the silk of some kind of Divine Silkworm—incredibly tough, impervious to fire and water!

"Using Divine Silkworm silk as a rag, and Chaos Spirit Spring water to wash a sword..." Zhu Zhuqing felt numb.

She carefully dipped the rag into the water and began to wipe the blade. With every stroke, ripples pulsed across the sword's surface, as if it were cheering in delight.

Back on the Douluo Continent, watching his fiancée act like a well-behaved little maid scrubbing a sword, Dai Mubai's face turned a sickly shade of green.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you've really outdone yourself!"

"I told you to wash the sword, and you're actually doing it with such enthusiasm?!"

"Where is your dignity as a member of the Star Luo Imperial Family?!"

Dai Mubai raged in impotent fury, but many others were dying of envy.

"If only I could be the one washing that sword."

"Exactly. Even if a single drop of that washing water splashed out, it would be enough to evolve my martial soul, right?" Many soul masters were already drooling with envy.

Just then, perhaps because Zhu Zhuqing's cleaning was so diligent that it pleased the Sword Spirit, the black sword suddenly vibrated slightly.

"Hum!"

A faint wisp of sword intent accidentally spilled from the tip of the blade.

"Watch out!"

Zhu Zhuqing cried out, instinctively retreating.

But this sword intent did not harm her; instead, it pierced directly through the spatial barrier of the Primordial Immortal Court. Following the mysterious threads of causality, a sliver of its essence refracted onto the sky screen!

"Rip!"

The sky over the Douluo Continent—the screen that had been considered indestructible—was forcibly torn open by this wisp of sword intent, leaving a black fissure!

Though it vanished in an instant, the aura of destruction revealed in that moment caused every Title Douluo across the entire Douluo Continent to cough up blood in unison!

"Pfft!"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Bone Douluo Gu Rong, Pope Bibi Dong, Grand Priest Qian Daoliu...

The most elite powerhouses on the entire continent had all been collectively injured just by catching a glimpse of that overflowing sword intent through the screen!

"Is this the height that the Clear Sky Hammer can never reach?"

Tang San looked at the hammer in his hand, which now seemed like nothing more than scrap metal, his eyes filled with despair.

Back in the Primordial Immortal Court, deep within the divine hall, the figure shrouded in chaos energy took a light sip of tea, the corners of their mouth curling upward:

"Since you have become my Sword Servant, the karma of this Douluo Continent is now bound to you."

"That little tiger called Dai Mubai... he seems to be making quite a lot of noise, doesn't he?"

Jiang Chen's fingers tapped lightly against the tabletop.

"Then let there be a punishment."

Having said that, he flicked his finger casually. He did not employ any divine ability; he merely flicked a speck of dust into the void.

Deep within the divine palace of the Primordial Immortal Court.

Jiang Chen lazily withdrew his finger.

That insignificant speck of dust pierced through layers of void, following the threads of causality, and drifted down toward that bubble-like low-dimensional world.

"The clamor of ants is truly disturbing to one's slumber."

Jiang Chen chuckled, turned over, and continued to savor the cup of Enlightenment Tea in his hand.

It was as if that strike just now had been nothing more than swatting a mosquito.

Douluo Continent, Shrek Academy.

Dai Mubai was still roaring madly at the sky, venting the humiliation and rage in his heart.

"I refuse to accept this! I am the Evil-Eyed White Tiger! I am the Star Luo Prince!"

"That so-called Immortal Lord, if you have the guts, come out..."

Before his voice could fade, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened in an instant.

An indescribably terrifying sense of oppression shrouded the entire Shrek Academy without any warning!

Zhao Wuji and the others, who had been watching the spectacle, turned deathly pale, their hair standing on end.

"What... what is this aura?!"

"Run! Get out of here!"

Zhao Wuji roared, attempting to activate his Martial Soul Avatar, but before he could even move, a point of black light suddenly emerged above the firmament!

At first, it was just a tiny black dot, but in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a towering, primordial demonic mountain!

And the target it locked onto was none other than Dai Mubai!

"Roar!"

Feeling the threat of death, Dai Mubai's evil eyes were filled with terror as he instinctively erupted with all his soul power.

"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protection Barrier!"

He frantically stacked his defenses, trying to block the thing descending from the sky.

However, in the face of that point of black light, all his soul skills and defenses were as laughable as paper.

"Pfft—"

The black light did not even truly strike; the wind pressure generated during its descent alone caused Dai Mubai to spray blood wildly and his knees to buckle!

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of bones cracking rang out, and Dai Mubai's once upright spine instantly buckled!

"Hold it for me, ahhh!!!" Dai Mubai's eyes were bloodshot as he still attempted to resist.

But in the next second, that point of black light landed gently on his shoulder.

BOOM!!!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a dull, heavy thud.

Dai Mubai was pressed flat against the ground!

Not kneeling, but prone!

Prostrate, his face pressed firmly into the dirt, even becoming distorted from the pressure!

"Mmph... mmph..."

Dai Mubai wanted to struggle, wanted to roar, but he felt as though he were carrying not a speck of dust, but the entire sky upon his back!

That weight made even moving a single finger a luxury; he could only lie on the ground like a dead dog, emitting sounds of humiliated whimpering.

At this moment, the entire Shrek Academy, including the audience across the continent watching the sky, was stunned.

Dai Mubai, who had just been clamoring for a duel, was pressed into a meat patty by a force from who knows where in the next second?

"Is this the consequence of offending the Immortal Lord?"

Watching this scene, Bibi Dong's pupils contracted to pinpoints, her entire body turning cold.

She saw it clearly.

What descended from the sky was not a soul skill, nor was it a divine artifact.

It was truly just a seemingly ordinary speck of dust!

A speck of dust had crushed a top-tier Soul Elder and even made a Titled Douluo feel suffocated!

"Mubai!"

Tang San and the others finally reacted and rushed forward.

"Third Brother, save... save me..."
