On the contrary, Li Xuanfeng, the surviving disciple of the previous generation, became the only disciple with Elite Template.

A Dharma Seed, like a spark, fell into the space between the eyebrows, its faint light flashing and disappearing in an instant.

With magical power flowing around him, Li Xuanfeng trembled. His mind was as if illuminated by a lamp flame, and a sudden flash of inspiration appeared. Deep within his sea of consciousness, a lamp's shadow quietly took shape.

As the lamplight flickered, all the acupoints on his body became clear, accompanied by a faint golden light flowing around him. His consciousness was like the first spring water, clear and vast.

A faint, shimmering light quietly appeared around them, and Lin Xu's eyes lit up. "He actually broke through!"

When I first met Li Xuanfeng, he was already a cultivator at the peak of the Day Wandering Realm. Now, he switched to cultivating the "Lamp Kindling Spirit Transformation Chapter" and naturally broke through to the Object Manipulation Realm!

This was the level of the Daoist elder before, who could drive magical artifacts to defend against enemies in mid-air and connect with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with his divine thoughts, greatly increasing the power of his Daoist magic.

Evaluation: A true disciple of the Xuanwei Monastery, skilled in commanding Yin soldiers and proficient in exorcising evil spirits and binding demons, Li Xuanfeng excels at communicating with the underworld and summoning ghosts and gods with a thought. He even crafted a battalion of Yin soldiers himself, commanding them in battle, making his combat power far surpass that of cultivators of the same level.

Lin Xu watched as Li Xuanfeng implanted the Dharma Seed into the many true disciples one by one, and he was overjoyed. "This Xuanwei Monastery has finally fallen into my hands!"

Of the 11 true disciples, Li Xuanfeng was to remain under orders, while 9 of the other 10 were temporarily assigned to take charge of the three main halls and six shrines within the temple, and the remaining 1 was subsequently dispatched to Azure Cloud Cave Abode.

Lin Xu then looked at the newly Demon-Suppressing Commandant Zhao Dan: "Zhao Dan, you will lead troops to patrol the territory, ensuring that the Daoist temples and villages are not disturbed by evil spirits and that the roads remain unobstructed."

"Yes, sir!" Zhao Yan clasped his hands in acceptance, his armor clanging loudly.

After dismissing the disciples and soldiers in front of the hall, Lin Xu looked at Li Yingqiu, who was standing silently beside him. "Yingqiu, why don't you wander around the temple and familiarize yourself with the surroundings? If you have any questions, feel free to come find me."

Li Yingqiu nodded slightly, then turned and left.

Watching everyone leave, Lin Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he have some free time.

"Hanyan has self-destructed her flying sword, leaving her sword energy without anything to rely on. If she doesn't quickly forge a new natal flying sword, she probably won't last much longer..."

The cultivation of sword immortals emphasizes the unity of sword and heart, heart and qi, and qi and spirit. After Jiang Hanyan's flying sword self-destructed, her soul was shaken and her sword essence dissipated. If she could not reforge the flying sword and solidify her soul in a short time, not only would her soul disintegrate under the backlash of the sword essence, but even the meridians in her body would break down inch by inch.

"Let me see if the Daoist temple has any suitable spiritual materials for forging swords..."

Lin Xu opened the warehouse interface and searched for refining materials from the inventory list.

Fortunately, the Daoist temple was full of NPCs, so there was no concept of private property. All the stored spiritual materials belonged to the public treasury. He searched for a while and quickly found the materials that suited him.

"Five catties of Xuan Iron Mother Crystal, three ounces of Cold Iron Marrow, one ounce of Heavenly Frost Silver Sand... that should be enough."

He selected the materials one by one, clicked to confirm the extraction, and pieces of spiritual materials shimmering with different colors appeared in front of him.

At this moment, Lin Xu was in a quiet room, with blue flames rising from the weapon-refining furnace.

The Glazed Spirit Light Lamp in his hand flickered with candlelight, and as his spiritual consciousness entered the furnace, it merged with the earth fire and blue flames. Under the control of his spiritual consciousness, it moved with his will and operated as he pleased.

The black iron mother crystal was scorched by the spiritual fire, and as the temperature continued to rise, it gradually melted into silvery-gray droplets.

Mystic Iron Mother Crystal is a by-product of Mystic Iron Ore, produced only in high-quality Mystic Iron Ore. It is rare and is a top-grade material for refining weapons.

Normally, adding just a few ounces of material can greatly improve the quality of a flying sword, but now Lin Xu is using Xuan Iron Mother Crystal as the main material to refine his flying sword.

As the Glazed Purifying Fire continued to burn, wisps of impurities were extracted, and the silver light became increasingly pure, eventually transforming into a dazzling bright silver, and then taking the shape of a three-foot-long green blade.

The spiritual materials, such as Cold Iron Marrow and Heavenly Frost Silver Sand, were put into the refining furnace and incorporated into the shaped longsword.

In a state of Thought Overclocking, his consciousness merged with the Glazed Purifying Fire.

Complex seal script talismans condense within the sword, forming nested, multi-layered magic arrays. Ultimately, a complex sword array is formed with the "Lamp Kindling Spirit Transformation Chapter Heavenly Origin Sword Embryo Method" at its core.

After a sudden inspiration, Lin Xu tried inscribing a magic array into a pill and then copied it into the field of weapon crafting.

As the Glazed Purifying Fire subsided and the spirit sword took shape, a clear and melodious sword cry resounded, piercing through the furnace wall and reaching Lin Xu's ears.

He sensed the spirit sword with his spiritual awareness and saw that the Spiritual Qi gathered in the furnace formed a vortex around the sword. Strands of Spiritual Qi were absorbed by the sword and transformed into pure sword light that flowed and spit out within the sword.

"This sword can automatically condense sword essence and temper its body..." As the sword light on the surface of the spirit sword grew brighter and brighter, Lin Xu breathed a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

This was also one of his innovations; the spirit swords he forged came with their own arrays, just like the meridians and acupoints in the human body, capable of absorbing and releasing Spiritual Qi to condense sword essence.

If placed in a place rich in Spiritual Qi, even without a sword cultivator nurturing it with their own sword essence, it can slowly grow by absorbing spiritual energy on its own. After thousands or tens of thousands of years, it may have the opportunity to be upgraded to a celestial sword.

The forging furnace was activated, and the precious sword transformed into a beam of light, flying out and landing in Lin Xu's hand.

The sword gleamed coldly and exuded Sword Qi chilling aura; a single glance was enough to send a shiver down one's spine.

Item: Heavenly Origin Concealed Light Sword Type: Magic Weapon Rank: Blue Rare Effect: Sharpness +40%, Armor Penetration +25%; Tianyuan Han Guang: The sword contains the Heavenly Origin Concealed Light Formation, which can absorb spiritual energy and transform it into sword Concealed Light Slash: The sword strikes silently, its trajectory is undetectable, dealing 120% magic damage to a single target and inflicting the "Primordial Spirit Tear" effect. Description: The sword light is like moonlight condensed into frost, restrained and not dazzling, but when it is unleashed, the world loses its color. "Not bad~" Lin Xu looked at the Han Light-Containing Sword with satisfaction, his fingers brushing along the spine of the sword, a clear and melodious sword chant resounded, tearing through the surrounding air.

"Hanyan, try this sword and see if it suits your hand?" He handed the sword to Jiang Hanyan, whose beautiful eyes were already completely captivated by the sword and she couldn't look away.

Jiang Hanyan carefully took the Heavenly Origin Concealed Light Sword and poured her sword energy into it.
