Qi Yue!

Hearing this, Xu Qingyang was thrilled. His sister had awakened the Ice Phoenix Physique, and the Desolate Tower had successfully upgraded, actually unlocking the Myriad-Eternal Divine Physique mode for him.

Just then, Xu Qingying opened her eyes and looked at Xu Qingyang, saying excitedly, "I've also awakened the Ice Phoenix Physique! I can feel my aura growing even stronger!"

"Qingying, congratulations!"

Xu Qingyang smiled.

The next moment.

Xu Qingying stared at Xu Qingyang as though something had occurred to her. "Brother, you're so powerful. What physique do you have?"

Hearing this, Xu Qingyang gave a bitter smile. "Qingying, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I only have a Mortal Body!"

"A Mortal Body?"

Xu Qingying froze for a moment, a trace of doubt flashing through her eyes.

Suddenly, countless rays of rosy light burst from Xu Qingyang's body. Behind him, a phantom of the Immovable Wisdom King emerged, with exceedingly ancient and intricate Inscriptions flowing over it.

"Is this the legendary Immovable Wisdom King Divine Body?"

At that moment, Xu Qingying stared at the phantom behind Xu Qingyang, her face filled with shock.

"Holy shit!"

"My physique is actually the Immovable Wisdom King Divine Body! The Desolate Tower really didn't deceive me!"

Sensing his own physique, Xu Qingyang was utterly delighted.

He had originally thought that possessing the Sword Martial Soul, Vermilion Bird Martial Soul, and True Dragon Martial Soul was already his limit.

He had never imagined that he could possess the Immovable Wisdom King Divine Body as well!

The Immovable Wisdom King was a legendary figure in the Kunlun Realm. Rising from humble beginnings, he had relied on his unparalleled comprehension and his understanding of the Great Dao to attain godhood in just a thousand years, becoming humanity's greatest expert.

His divine body was naturally the finest divine body in the world. Even demon bodies, five elements bodies, chaos bodies, reincarnation bodies, and the like could not compare.

"Brother, you actually have the Immovable Wisdom King Divine Body! You're amazing!"

Xu Qingying's eyes shone brightly as she spoke with excitement.

Xu Qingyang smiled. "Qingying, a divine body may be powerful, but without strong willpower and the heart of a true expert, you'll ultimately drown in the long river of history!"

"Mm!"

Hearing this, Xu Qingying nodded her delicate head. "Brother, you're right. A physique is ultimately an external aid. Only by becoming strong ourselves can we bring its power to the fullest!"

"Good!"

Xu Qingyang was deeply gratified by her words. Then he added, "Qingying, you must never tell anyone that you have the Ice Phoenix Physique!"

"Otherwise, you'll bring danger upon yourself and the Xu Family!"

"I know!"

Xu Qingying replied.

How could she not understand what Xu Qingyang meant?

If word spread that she possessed the Ice Phoenix Physique, those great powers would likely make their moves over it.

Soon afterward, Xu Qingyang left the Willow Tower and returned to his own loft. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, he murmured to himself, "Now that my cultivation has reached the middle stage of the Blood Moving Realm, I should be able to turn more pages of the Heavenly Book!"

At that thought.

Xu Qingyang regulated his breathing for a short while. With a thought, he sent his consciousness into the space between his brows and opened the second page of the Great Dao Primordial Chaos Art. As he scanned its contents, a gleam lit up his eyes.

"The first page says I can break through by taking in a single breath of spiritual qi. This page says that besides spiritual qi, I can also absorb devil qi, Ghost Qi, Evil Qi, Desolate Qi, and so on!"

"Moreover, by observing the Heavenly Sun, the Silent Moon, the Solitary Mountain, seawater, the Heavenly Thunder, and the like, I can absorb their power too, allowing me to break through quickly!"

"At its core, it comes down to one word: simple!"

Xu Qingyang immediately opened his eyes and walked out of the loft. Looking up at the blazing Heavenly Sun in the sky, a smile curled at the corners of his lips.

"Little fellow, having sensed the mighty power of the Heavenly Sun, the Desolate Tower is beginning an upgrade!"

"The Desolate Tower has successfully upgraded. Heavenly Sun absorption mode unlocked, with no harmful effects!"

At that instant, the Desolate Tower's voice rang in Xu Qingyang's ears.

Hearing it, a delighted smile appeared on Xu Qingyang's handsome face.

"This Desolate Tower really performs well!"

Whoosh!

Immediately, countless streams of Heavenly Sun power poured from the Heavenly Sun overhead and surged into Xu Qingyang's body. The Great Dao Primordial Chaos Art began circulating.

Within a few breaths, the Heavenly Sun power was refined, and Xu Qingyang's cultivation broke through to the peak of the Blood Moving Realm.

"Ha ha ha!"

Xu Qingyang burst into laughter. "Not bad, not bad at all! I've broken through to the peak of the Blood Moving Realm!"

Had anyone else heard this, they would probably have stared at one another, wide-eyed and dumbfounded.

Others could cultivate for years without necessarily reaching the peak of the Blood Moving Realm.

Yet he had actually reached it!

Then he returned to the loft, sat on his bed, and opened the second page of the Great Dao Sword Scripture between his brows. Several lines of text appeared before him.

"I, the Heaven-Covering Sword Lord, emerged from the Great Wilderness, traveled through Mang City, braved Thunder Valley, and battled the devil race. With the sword in my hand, I made the Dao of the Sword foremost among the Great Daos!"

"Had Heaven not given birth to me, the Heaven-Covering Sword Lord, the ages would have been one endless night!"

Reading this, Xu Qingyang felt even more awed by the Heaven-Covering Sword Lord. To fight his way through the myriad heavens and worlds with only himself and his sword, attaining the Dao of the Sword, was truly incredible. But could he ever reach such heights himself?

Xu Qingyang continued reading and saw the words written above: "The previous page contained my Wordless Sword Art. This page contains my Sword-Controlling Technique!"

"My Sword-Controlling Technique differs from all others. It moves with the wind!"

"In other words, to master my Sword-Controlling Technique, you must become one with heaven and earth!"

A delighted expression appeared on Xu Qingyang's face. If he truly mastered this Sword-Controlling Technique, his strength would improve at a tremendous pace.

"Little fellow, the Desolate Tower is beginning an upgrade!"

"The Desolate Tower has successfully upgraded. Sword-Controlling Technique mode unlocked for you!"

Just then, the Desolate Tower's voice rang out.

"Another upgrade?"

Xu Qingyang could not help smiling. "This time it's unlocked Sword-Controlling Technique mode. The Desolate Tower really is considerate!"

The next moment.

Xu Qingyang took out the Red Sparrow Sword. With a thought, he made it hover in the air, then leaped onto it. Pointing two fingers forward, he instantly flew out of the loft and appeared in the sky above Heavenly Martial City.

So this is the benefit of Sword-Controlling Technique mode!

Xu Qingyang marveled inwardly.

The Qi Family.

Inside a grand hall, an old man in purple robes suddenly appeared. Seeing Qi Tai'a's corpse and Qi Taicang's crippled cultivation, his eyes filled with murderous intent, surging like storm-driven waves.

"Damn it!"

"You dare kill the patriarch of my Qi Family and cripple our elder? You're courting death!"

The purple-robed old man was none other than the Qi Family's former patriarch, Qi Yue.

At that moment, Qi Taicang looked at Qi Yue and said furiously, "Former Patriarch, you must avenge the patriarch and me!"

"I will!"

Qi Yue said coldly, "But which bastard killed Qi Tai'a and crippled you?"
