Slaying Immortals Sword Art, the Slaying Immortals Sword Recognizes Its Master

Whoosh!

After a single breath, a rune was engraved onto Chen Yang's chest, lighting up with a trace of blood-red radiance and weaving together profound Dao rhythms.

Crack!

Immediately afterward, the sound of bones breaking rang out.

Every formation pattern he branded meant Chen Yang had to break a bone. Although his True Immortal body would not die from it, he still had to endure immense pain!

"Again!"

Chen Yang growled.

His mana gathered once more, embedding the formation-pattern destiny into his right arm, left arm, limbs...

Each branding felt as though it tore apart his soul, leaving Chen Yang in unbearable agony.

Yet at the same time, the moment the formation patterns lit up, his physical body grew even stronger, like the Nine-Turn Profound Art refining his body into a precious vessel that radiated boundless might!

No one knew how much time had passed.

The spiritual energy across Dabao Peak suddenly erupted into turmoil, pouring into Chen Yang's secluded cultivation site like a raging tide.

At this moment, many formation patterns had already been inscribed within Chen Yang's body. Finally, these patterns converged and formed an irregular, mysterious character within his dantian.

Chen Yang recognized the character: "Slay"!

"Now!"

Chen Yang suddenly let out a thunderous roar.

In that instant, surging spiritual energy flooded into his body, and a terrifying sword aura erupted.

"Roar..."

Chen Yang released a long howl.

The sword aura erupting from his body pierced the cave abode full of holes, turning it into a porcupine. At the same time, Chen Yang's aura steadily climbed.

Late-stage True Immortal!

Early-stage Profound Immortal!

Late-stage Profound Immortal!

Early-stage Golden Immortal!

Chen Yang broke through, and fierce sword intent surged from his body!

Duobao Daoist sensed that sharpness at once, and a smile appeared on his dignified, treasure-like face.

"Good boy, you've caused quite a stir this time!"

Several treasured swords that Duobao had just finished refining buzzed beside him, seemingly celebrating, as though they might rush toward Chen Yang's cave abode at any moment!

"Is this the effect of engraving a sword formation?"

Duobao waved a sleeve, deep in thought.

At the same time.

Within Biyou Palace, at the heart of Golden Ao Island, an ancient sword was also humming.

"Interesting... Duobao's disciple has actually made even the Slaying Immortals Sword ring out..."

"Interesting... Hahaha..."

A Daoist stepped out of the void, his entire body wreathed in the aura of the Great Dao. Sun and moon seemed to hang behind him, while endless civilizations were born and extinguished within his eyes.

With a single glance from him, all heavens would turn to ash.

This Daoist was naturally the Shangqing Daoist, Tongtian!

"Haha... You little one really are interesting. Fine, fine... I'll seal away part of your divine might. Go find him..."

As Tongtian spoke, he flicked his sleeve, and a stream of light enveloped the Slaying Immortals Sword.

At that moment, the Slaying Immortals Sword was like a child receiving its favorite toy. Humming excitedly, it shot out of Biyou Palace and flew toward Dabao Peak.

"Hum..."

The next instant, Chen Yang, who had been comprehending the changes within himself, felt an incomparable sword aura descend upon him, and his heart trembled in shock.

Then,

he saw an ancient divine sword, forged from some unknown material. The blade carried its own icy gleam, and even the surrounding air had been dyed with a chilling killing intent.

Staring at it was like staring at a savage beast of chaos!

"This is... the Slaying Immortals Sword..."

Chen Yang was stunned.

He immediately activated the formation patterns within his body. Countless sword auras burst forth from him, and after engraving the All-Heavens Immortal-Destroying Grand Formation Formula within himself, he had automatically comprehended the Slaying Immortals Sword Intent.

In an instant, fierce sword aura surged from his body!

The Slaying Immortals Sword showed no resistance. It allowed Chen Yang to seize it, and before long, Chen Yang confirmed that this was the Slaying Immortals Sword, one of the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords!

But what was going on?

Wasn't the Slaying Immortals Sword in Lord Tongtian's possession?

Why had it come to him?

Chen Yang was somewhat at a loss.

"Silly boy... the Slaying Immortals Sword is yours now."

"Why don't you hurry up and thank your grandmaster?"

Duobao had appeared at some point and looked at Chen Yang with satisfaction.

The more he looked at this disciple, the more pleasing he found him!

Chen Yang came back to his senses and immediately bowed toward Biyou Palace. "Disciple-grandson Chen Yang thanks Grandmaster."

"Treat this sword well..."

A voice like thunder entered Chen Yang's ears.

This finally left Chen Yang completely exhilarated.

The Slaying Immortals Sword! A supreme treasure of this level had simply been given to him?

Chen Yang was shocked and overjoyed, as though he were dreaming.

At this time, the Jie Sect disciples throughout Golden Ao Island, all stirred by the commotion, wore different expressions and harbored different thoughts.

Golden-Spirit Holy Mother and Turtle-Spirit Holy Mother were playing chess. Upon hearing Tongtian's voice transmission, neither of them placed a piece for a long time.

In the end, Golden-Spirit Holy Mother shook her head and sighed. "I never expected Master to be willing to bestow the Slaying Immortals Sword, and to a third-generation disciple at that."

"Master must have a deeper purpose in doing this," Turtle-Spirit Holy Mother said quietly.

Hearing this, Golden-Spirit Holy Mother seemed to realize something and nodded.

"Master... I..."

Chen Yang looked at the softly humming Slaying Immortals Sword in his hand, then turned to Duobao.

"Silly boy, the Slaying Immortals Sword is fated with you. If you're told to keep it, then keep it."

Duobao smiled.

Chen Yang nodded and did not refuse again.

After the master and disciple chatted for a while, Chen Yang resumed his secluded cultivation.

This breakthrough had brought tremendous gains.

Not only had his cultivation improved, but he had also obtained the Slaying Immortals Sword. He had to study it properly.

[You comprehended the Slaying Immortals Sword and gained some insight. You have comprehended the Sword Dao Law.]

[You comprehended the Sword Dao Law and, combining it with the true meaning of the Formation Dao, created the Slaying Immortals Sword Art.]

The long years passed in the blink of an eye.

For several hundred years, Chen Yang remained in seclusion, stabilizing his realm while comprehending the Slaying Immortals Sword.

"Finally, I've reached mid-stage Golden Immortal!"

Chen Yang awoke, filled with delight once again.

"I've spent nearly a thousand years in seclusion altogether. My bones are practically rusting. It's time to go out and stretch a little."

"But before that, I should visit Master."

With that, Chen Yang vanished from the cave abode.

Shangqing Scripture Repository.

This was a vital place of Jie Sect inheritance. It contained not only the cultivation methods of personal disciples such as Duobao, Jin Ling, and Gui Ling, but even Lord Tongtian's cultivation insights were stored in the Scripture Repository.

Chen Yang had come here to take this opportunity to learn a few more divine abilities.

After all, among the Primordial World's Three Teachings, the Jie Sect was a great sect with an exceptionally rich collection!

Yet after arriving at the Scripture Repository, Chen Yang wore a strange expression.

"This is the Jie Sect's sacred ground?"

Chen Yang was dumbfounded.

He had originally assumed that the Scripture Repository would be an extremely solemn place, with at least rows upon rows of jade slips engraved with Dao Script and neatly arranged.

Only upon seeing everything before him did Chen Yang realize that he had been wrong.

And terribly wrong at that!

The Scripture Repository before him was extremely chaotic. Moreover, the items recording inheritances were crystals, beast hides, beast bones, and the like... there were even stones.

All of them were engraved with messy Dao Script.

The books Chen Yang had imagined did not exist at all.

But that made sense. In the current Primordial World, writing had not even appeared yet; there was only Dao Script. It would have been strange if books existed.

"Though it's somewhat primitive, the inheritances are genuine enough."

Chen Yang shook his head and did not dwell on it.

Instead, he began browsing through them.
