Another Epiphany

"Um."

Chen Nianzhi took her hand, looked at the stunning figure before him, and smiled, "It's been a long time since I played the zither. Dance with me."

"Good."

Heavy snow fell continuously, covering the earth with silver frost, and all things were solemn and silent.

Above the pavilions and towers, wisps of smoke rise from the stoves, carrying a subtle and unique fragrance that lingers over the entire Lakeheart Island.

The figure in the snow-white dress danced gracefully in the wind and snow, like Nine Heavens maiden descending to earth, possessing an untouchable, divine beauty.

Chen Nianzhi wore a white cloak, her long black hair cascading freely, her eyes like clear mirrors, reflecting her stunning figure.

He pressed the strings, and a series of exquisitely clear and resonant notes rose up, the melody echoing throughout the world.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment; the zither music was exquisitely beautiful and ethereal, and Yao Ji in the snow was even more stunning. The howling wind and snow seemed to become an accompaniment to the music.

Chen Nianzhi felt her mind relax, the tension vanished, and her spirit was sublimated invisibly.

A rare sense of peace filled Chen Nianzhi's heart. She felt her thoughts were wandering and her soul was growing rapidly.

"Sudden enlightenment?"

Chen Nianzhi muttered to himself. He had cultivated for three hundred years, and it had been a long time since he had entered a state of sudden enlightenment on his own.

In fact, given his level of understanding, entering a state of enlightenment shouldn't have been this difficult; it was only now that he gradually came to understand.

Only by properly emptying one's mind and carefully appreciating the magnificent scenery and profound mysteries of nature can one more easily enter into a deeper state of enlightenment.

Although sudden enlightenment is rare, Chen Nianzhi did not begin to comprehend Divine Ability. Instead, he continued to play the guqin to accompany her.

Yes, she danced for him, but wasn't he also playing music to accompany her?

After a long while, when the music ended, Jiang Linglong stepped forward and asked, "What is the name of this piece?"

The title of this piece is "Left Hand Points to the Moon".

Chen Nianzhi pressed down on the strings, suppressing the lingering sound, before closing her eyes and beginning to comprehend the Divine Ability.

In a state of enlightenment, Chen Nianzhi felt his Divine Sense rapidly increasing, and the Five-Color Soul-Refining Method within his body was operating wildly, constantly refining his divine soul power.

In this state, his comprehension of Divine Ability powers advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just three days, he completed the deduction of the Three-Powers Divine Thunder and created the first Great Divine Ability.

This enlightenment was exceptionally long; even after he created his Great Divine Ability, he did not end his state of enlightenment.

He seized the opportunity and began to deduce the method of refining his Life-bound Spirit Treasure. This time, the Life-bound Spirit Treasure he deduced was the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword.

This natal Life-Bound Immortal Sword has followed Chen Nianzhi for nearly three hundred years. It is almost an extension of his will and is also the most comfortable killing immortal sword to use.

Two full days passed before Chen Nianzhi successfully deduced the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword and finally emerged from his state of enlightenment.

The moment he opened his eyes, he was greeted by Jiang Linglong's stunningly beautiful face, "How are you feeling?"

"Better than ever before"

Chen Nianzhi nodded, a slight smile appearing on her face.

This time, relying on the profound mysteries of the Five-Element Divine Thunder, he comprehended the Three-Powers Divine Thunder, and his strength is destined to make a huge leap.

After all, once the Five-Element Great Cycle is formed within his body, the power of his Divine Ability will increase dramatically, and the Law Power he consumes will only be half of that of ordinary Divine Ability.

Judging solely from the Law Power consumption, the Three-Powers Divine Thunder has already surpassed the Light-Splitting Shadow-Condensing Sword Art, and will become the most practical Great Divine Ability in Chen Nianzhi's hands.

Furthermore, elevating the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword to the level of Life-bound Spirit Treasure saved Chen Nianzhi a significant amount of time, allowing him to advance his advancement to the Refining Demon-Refining Immortal Sword by at least one value ahead of schedule.

After hearing Chen Nianzhi's explanation, Jiang Linglong excitedly said, "Now that we've deduced the Demon-Refining Demon-Refining Immortal Sword, the time to deal with Scarlet Flame True Lord can be brought forward."

"Alright."

Chen Nianzhi nodded as well. In fact, after Jiang Linglong forged the Demon Refining Demon-Refining Immortal Sword, they were already confident that they could kill the Scarlet Flame True Lord.

They only decided not to kill Scarlet Flame True Lord for the time being because they needed Scarlet Flame True Lord to refine the Netherworld Qi in the Netherworld Stone.

But now that we have the Spirit Treasure Chapter of the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword, it's not appropriate to wait any longer.

The best way for Chen Nianzhi to advance the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword is to use the Scarlet Flame True Lord's companion Spirit Treasure as material.

However, the next Beast Turmoil will only be about forty years away, and the next one will take thirty years to start.

Even if they obtain the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword by then, they probably won't have enough time to simultaneously advance two natal demon -Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Linglong said, "Now that nearly thirty years have passed, the Netherworld energy in the Netherworld Stone has probably been mostly removed."

"Although there are still quite a few left, we should be able to remove them by refining them with the Infernal Flame Sea Formation and with the assistance of Senior Slanting Sun Wheel."

"Then let's set off immediately," Chen Nianzhi said, standing up.

Because the once-every-thirty-years opening time was approaching, they didn't waste any time and immediately flew to the Infernal Flame Sea on their swords.

After flying for several months, they arrived in the Heavenly Hut Continent Heavenly Hut Continent, only to receive bad news as soon as they arrived.

Not long ago, Skystar Zi survived the Nascent Soul tribulation and actually stepped into the realm of Nascent Soul True Lord.

"This is troublesome."

Chen Nianzhi's gaze was solemn. To have a Nascent Soul True Lord as an enemy, even if it was a True Lord had just entered the Nascent Soul, was extremely difficult to accept.

Jiang Linglong's gaze also turned serious. She frowned and said, "It seems that after plundering the Qian Clan, he has still accumulated enough resources."

"Fortunately, although he successfully transcended the tribulation, he also suffered considerable injuries, and his cultivation level is probably not yet fully consolidated."

"Let's kill Scarlet Flame True Lord first, and then bring the treasure back."

"Good."

Chen Nianzhi nodded and flew into the Infernal Flame Sea with Jiang Linglong.

The opening time of the ruins was not far off. After waiting for more than half a year in the Infernal Flame Sea, the time for the ruins to open had finally come.

After entering the Infernal Flame Sea, the two arrived at the core of the ruins.

When Clear-Moon Wheel saw the two arrive, she assumed they had come to help. "Thirty years ago, you provided the Netherworld Stone as the core of the array, and you have come to assist us again this time. Thank you for your kindness."

Jiang Linglong shook her head and said directly, "Senior, we actually came here to kill Scarlet Flame True Lord."

"Oh?"

The Clear-Moon Wheel trembled slightly, only then noticing something amiss, sensing the aura of the two Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure within Jiang Linglong's body.

The fact that a Golden Core realm cultivator possessed two Demon Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure truly shocked them.

The Slanting Sun Wheel cast its light, and its voice trembled slightly as it said, "You have a great fortuitous opportunity. Even my lord, the Slanting Sun True Lord, only possesses three supreme Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure."

Chen Nianzhi's eyes flickered slightly. That Slanting Sun True Lord was a powerful True Lord at the Fourth Nascent Soul Layer, yet he only possessed three Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure. This showed just how precious these treasures were.
