The Eastern Seashore.
After the great battle involving the Human Race, countless members of the Demon Race lay dead here, many of them slain by Zhao Gongming and the others.
Faced with such a bounty, Fuxi happily accepted it on behalf of the Human Race.
Zhao Gongming and the others, meanwhile, answered the Demon Emperor's summons and returned to the Heavenly Court.
The moment Zhao Gongming stepped into the Heavenly Court...
Tongtian had already arrived in the great hall, waiting with eager anticipation.
Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters knelt in the great hall. "Master, the matter concerning the Human Race has been successfully resolved. We have come to report."
Daochen laughed heartily. "Gongming, your strength is plain for all to see. You deserve the greatest credit for this battle. Tell me, what reward would you like?"
Zhao Gongming stood on no ceremony. Feeling light and refreshed, he knelt on one knee. "Master, this sword handles wonderfully. If it could be further refined, it would be perfect."
Daochen paused slightly. This fellow really knew how to pick his moment.
He did indeed have a way to upgrade the sword. By infusing it with primordial purple qi, he could greatly enhance its power.
"You are quite the lucky fellow. As it happens, I recently acquired a way to enhance this sword's power."
"Having been forged and tempered with my sage power, this sword already possesses the presence of a Sage. If infused with primordial purple qi, it might rival a Xiantian Supreme Treasure."
"However, if I truly do that, you may find it difficult to control in the future."
"Infusing it with primordial purple qi will indeed enhance its power, but its spiritual awareness will also increase considerably. With your strength, you may not be able to master this sword."
