Eternal Sword Monarch

To be honest, based on the strength that Xia Yanning had displayed on Su Anshan, even if all the Xiao Family cultivators were to come together, it would be for nothing.    

It wouldn't even be a problem to kill seven to seven people here.    

However, according to Xia Yanning, her power was not something that could be casually used.    

"... "I also don't know what kind of power technique I was training in Su Anshan. Although it gave me a lot of power, if I use it excessively, my body will gradually collapse." Xia Yanning explained.    

That's right, [Demonic Collapse] was a cultivation technique that could not be used with common sense. Even if he succeeded, it was not guaranteed that something would happen to him.    

That day, Xia Yanning had met with danger to her life, and regardless of the cost, she had unleashed [Demonic Collapse], instantly pushing her strength past the level of Essencial Core Rank!    

It could even directly kill a few of Su Anshan's Essencial Core Rank Elders when they were caught off guard.    

However, since then, Xia Yanning's body had been on the verge of collapse.    

She muddle-headedly left Su Anshan, barely maintaining her body's condition all the way up to the north. At that time, Xia Yanning had almost lost control of herself. She could only vaguely feel a force attracting her.    

That was the Magic Sword.    

That's right, in reality, Xia Yanning didn't even have an impression of how she went to the Middle North anymore. When she regained her consciousness, the Magic Sword was in his hands.    

In the beginning, the reason Magic Sword appeared in front of the girl was to seize control of her body.    

However, Xia Yanning could not accept the brutality and killing that existed in the Magic Sword during the ancient times. Her Primordial Spirit fought with all her might against the Magic Sword, resisting his invasion.    

However, if the fight continued, Xia Yanning's body would collapse. And the Magic Sword also couldn't bear to part with this hard-earned body, so they reached an agreement with Xia Yanning.    

Magic Sword could use Xia Yanning's body, but they could not tamper with her consciousness.    

Moreover, it had to be used to repair the body that was originally on the verge of collapsing. This was also why Xia Yanning still had the energy to attack, otherwise, Xia Ling would have seen the girl's corpse.    

"Why is the Magic Sword looking for you?" Xia Ling asked in confusion.    

Hearing that, Xia Ling also understood a little, probably because the Magic Sword needed a body, so he went to find Xia Yanning. However, the land of Middle North had also always been filled with talented individuals, shining brightly in the starry sky. Why did the Magic Sword not make such a move for so long, and Xia Yanning came looking for her instead?    

Xia Yanning, who was moving fast in the cave, spoke calmly as if she was narrating someone else's experiences.    

"While I am under control, I can also occasionally see fragments of the Magic Sword's past …"    

"It seems to have been a powerful cultivator's weapon for a very long time. "When that cultivator was cultivating a technique, he caused his own Genuine Qi to explode and die. Thus, this divine weapon became a ownerless weapon.    

"For so many years, it had been cruelly wandering here. However, according to it, the cultivation method I cultivate is exactly the same as its original owner back then. This caused the Magic Sword to regain its desire. "    

Xia Ling already understood that back then, there was actually a cultivator with Celestial Spirits who attempted to cultivate the [Sky Demon Disintegration] of the Dark Demon Domain, causing his body to collapse.    

So, cultivators with "Celestial Spirits" still have a weakness. Xia Ling chuckled lightly. Ever since their contact with each other, he had thought that these cultivators were truly invincible.    

And the Magic Sword that contained the violent energy of "Celestial Spirit", had always remained in the area of the Heaven Sovereign City for so many years. It was only when Xia Yanning, who had also cultivated the [Demonic Collapse], arrived that it was reactivated.    

No wonder, no wonder …    

At this moment, the Magic Sword was lying quietly in Xia Ling's Mustard Seed Bag. After all, Xia Yanning had just recovered from being controlled by the Magic Sword. If they continued to interact for a long period of time, no one would know if there would be any problems.    

Therefore, it was better to temporarily isolate him.    

At this moment, Xia Ling's gaze suddenly turned serious as he reminded Xia Yanning, "Be careful, someone is coming from outside."    

At this moment, within the gorge outside the Heaven Sovereign City, the sky had already darkened.    

Strangely, it was only a little after noon. Even if it was a cloudy day, there should not be a dusk scene.    

However, everyone who saw this scene understood that this was the arrival of an almighty cultivator standing on the peak of the cultivation path.    

Above the high altitude of ten thousand li, a figure wearing a long robe could be faintly seen floating over. Although they were still separated by such a great distance, the heavy aura, which was akin to a mountain, was already pressing down on them.    

It felt like it was crushing a city with black clouds!    

With this level of pressure, cultivators below the level of Essencial Core Rank, even those at the upper level of Congealing Void, would no longer be able to raise their heads. As for the cultivators of the Essencial Core Rank, they slowly rose into the air at the same time, meeting the person in the sky.    

That figure descended from the sky, his clothes fluttering in the wind. His face was especially gloomy, just like the sky. His long face was very dignified, and his long beard fluttered in the wind.    

"Senior Xiao, why have you come at such a time?"    

The first Essencial Core Rank cultivator to speak was precisely the Essencial Core Middle Rank cultivator, Lin Xingqing. His face was impassive as well.    

According to the convention, in general, cultivators above the Essencial Core Rank would not appear in the Magic Sword fights. Now that the cultivator from Xiao Family had arrived, it was undoubtedly breaking the balance of the situation.    

This was because the strength of the cultivators in the Empty Meditative Rank had already reached an extremely terrifying level. If the cultivators in the Empty Meditative Rank from the aristocratic families in Gao Que started a war, it would be easy for them to destroy this mountain range. It might even affect the Heaven Sovereign City!    

Lin Family had always been at a disadvantage in this competition, so Lin Xingqing's mood was already rather bad.    

This cultivator from Empty Meditative Rank coldly swept Lin Xingqing with his gaze, and unrestrainedly said, "I don't have any interest in wasting time with a junior like you. I presume you all still don't know that this time's Magic Sword has already been obtained by a foreign kid."    

This sentence was like a bolt of lightning, striking all the cultivators standing outside into the depths of their hearts!    

"What did you say? How is that possible?" One of the cultivators asked in disbelief.    

The other Essencial Core Rank cultivator could not believe it as well. With a stiff smile on his face, he said: "Senior Xiao, you must be joking right? Magic Sword, how could Magic Sword … "    

The Empty Meditative Rank cultivator decisively interrupted these words, and said with a ruthless tone: "There's no need to doubt anymore, this old man would not joke around like that!"    

"If we can't make this kid stay here forever, our Heaven Sovereign City family will lose all face!"    

"That brat — it's Xia Ling!"
