However, Xiao Tian was unaware of the horror of the artifact spirit. The power of an artifact spirit wasn’t measured by the artifact’s level but by the spirit sealed within it.

Once the sword spirit awakened, Xiao Tian suddenly felt an intense cold, as if a chilling breeze was flowing from his hair down to his toes. His vision darkened slightly, and a terrifying aura began to envelop his surroundings. Xiao Tian did not realize that he had become colder than before; his once furious gaze now turned into a chillingly empty stare, causing anyone who looked at him to shudder in fear.

Unaware of the change within himself, Xiao Tian was controlled by the ancient sword in his hand. His hand was lifted automatically, drawing the sword with a smooth yet deadly motion toward the two remaining enemies. His voice came out cold and eerie, “Become my food!” The voice was not like Xiao Tian’s usual tone; it carried a dark power with every word.

    Xiao Tian did not dwell too much on the changes within him. To him, threats should be eliminated, not preserved. Rather than waiting for his enemies to repent without certainty, it was better to eradicate them now.Xiao Tian approached Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen, then walked over to the leader of the Skull Organization, who was impaled by a sword. The man glared at him with fury, but he no longer had the strength to do anything. "Little boy, are you aware of what you've done? Your actions have brought disaster upon your sect!"Boom—Xiao Tian leaped up, stomping on the man’s chest until all his ribs shattered. "You don't need to threaten me. If your Skull Organization had the capability, they could come after me anytime! I detest threats the most." Without much thought, Xiao Tian struck the man's face, causing his head to explode.All six members of the Skull Organization were ultimately killed by Xiao Tian.Xiao Tian looked at Elder Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen. "Elder should know that the e

    Daniel practiced diligently. At night, he cultivated, deepening his internal strength and understanding. During the day, he honed his physical skills and sword techniques, following Xiao Tian's instructions with high discipline. In just three days, Daniel's progress was striking. His movements became more agile and his strikes more powerful.Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen, observing Daniel's training, were astonished by his drastic improvement. Liu Qingyun couldn't help but comment, “Elder Shu Hen, do you realize now that we are getting old and useless?” he said, half-jokingly but with admiration. They exchanged glances, recognizing that Daniel's youthful spirit and perseverance had provided them with a valuable lesson.“Hahaha.” Shu Hen laughed heartily. “Elder Qingyun, indeed we feel humbled now. But that doesn’t mean we are useless. Young Master Tian's talent is just too high. He provides techniques that are easy to understand yet extremely powerful. With Daniel's increased strength and Y

    "Who are you referring to?" Xiao Tian asked, narrowing his eyes. Past experiences have taught him not to trust anyone easily. His uncle, who once appeared kind and friendly, turned out to be a ruthless beast who had killed his parents."Young Master, we were sent by the Store Manager. We were not only instructed to protect Young Master but also to deliver something to you. Earlier, you were in a hurry, so the Store Manager forgot to give you this card," one of the men said, handing over a black card with a Dragon and Phoenix intertwined in the center.Xiao Tian squinted and examined the card closely, recognizing the symbol as the same one his father had once possessed. "Isn't this a VIP card from the Dragon Phoenix Association?" he asked with curiosity, recalling the reputation of the Dragon Phoenix Association that was famous in the Dynasty where he was born."Young Master is indeed well-informed. In such a remote place, it's rare for anyone to know the name of our Association. If yo

    When Xiao Tian emerged from his quarters, Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen were astonished. They were not surprised by Xiao Tian’s cultivation realm, as they could not see it—Xiao Tian was concealing his realm from others. Liu Qingyun was shocked by Xiao Tian’s appearance; he no longer looked like a ten-year-old child but more like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager. Perhaps this was a result of his rapid inner strength improvement affecting his appearance."Youth Master, you’re finally out. It’s time for us to continue our journey," Liu Qingyun was the first to greet Xiao Tian.Xiao Tian was somewhat surprised by the change in Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen’s attitude. Initially, they had always addressed him by his name directly, but now they consistently called him Youth Master.Xiao Tian nodded. "Sorry for making you wait.""It’s no problem." Liu Qingyun gave a slight smile. He wanted to ask about Xiao Tian’s current realm, but he held back.****After a long journey, the four of them arrived

    "Shirong, stop!" The voice echoed among the members of the Yuntai Kingdom's entourage. Although the others were too intimidated to confront Shirong directly, this young man dared to address him by name. Shirong's face twisted in anger, his eyes blazing as he turned to face the speaker."Brother Shunyuan, are you going to let them go just like that? After the injured Renyi so badly?" he asked, his voice almost a growl."Shirong, aren’t you ashamed of what happened? Look how easily Renyi was defeated—doesn't that sight open your eyes?" Shunyuan said calmly. Then he stepped forward and clasped his hands respectfully toward Xiao Tian and the others. "Friends from the Supreme Sword Sect, please forgive my younger brother and the other members of my kingdom for their rudeness."Shirong’s anger flared even more at Shunyuan’s actions, but he didn’t dare challenge the prince’s authority, who was also the strongest member of the young generation within their group. Realizing his powerlessness,

    Xiao Tian closed his eyes. “Damn, I need to control my eyes. If this keeps up, I won’t be able to focus on training.”Their journey on the ship proceeded without significant obstacles, although they had to stop a few times when the ship was intercepted by pirates. However, this ship was filled with martial arts experts, including one of the Elders from the Misty Cloud Sect, who wasn’t just an Earth Realm warrior but a Sky Realm warrior at the fourth rank. The Elder easily dispatched the pirates who tried to block their way.After months of travel, they finally arrived at the Empire’s center. Daniel, Liu Qingyun, and Shu Hen couldn’t hide their amazement at the grand sight of the Imperial capital. However, to Xiao Tian, the sight was nothing special. He had often been brought to the Empire by his father, so this view was familiar to him.The Ming Dynasty was much stronger than the She Dynasty, and its Imperial center was more grand and awe-inspiring.As they disembarked from the ship,

    Seeing Daniel manage to hold his own against his three opponents, the young dark-skinned man felt he couldn't just stand by and watch. "Attack together! He's only a first rank. No matter how strong his fighting skills are, he will tire out over time."The dark-skinned youth pulled out a pair of iron gloves, his weapon of choice, different from other warriors who typically used swords.*Tssut—*The three other warriors quickly joined their comrades who were already attacking. Daniel now faced attacks from two swords coming from the front, while two more came at him from the right and left.With incredible speed, Daniel wielded his sword, his movements graceful as he parried the barrage of incoming sword strikes. However, the sheer number of opponents eventually gave him trouble. From behind, the dark-skinned youth attacked with lightning speed.*BANG!*A hard punch landed on Daniel's back, causing him to wince slightly in pain."You cowardly scoundrel! Since you all intend to kill me,

    After ensuring Daniel’s safe return, Xiao Tian immediately set off again. In his hand was a large amount of gold coins he had obtained from the young black-skinned man earlier. "With this much money," he thought, "it shouldn't be difficult for me to get a quality sword."This time, his destination was the Phoenix Dragon Association, located in the heart of the Empire. Known as the place that provided all the needs of warriors, Xiao Tian was confident he could find a sword that suited his needs there. With a determined stride, he began searching for the way to the association.Meanwhile, Ling Faizhe had arrived at his residence. As soon as he passed through the entrance, an overwhelming sense of nausea struck him. This was the first time he had witnessed such a brutal and merciless murder scene. In front of Xiao Tian and Daniel, Ling Faizhe tried hard to maintain his composure, attempting not to show that he was someone who had just entered the world of martial arts. "Damn," he muttere

    Xiao Rui stared sharply. The coldness in his eyes could freeze an ocean. He lifted his chin slightly, looking at Xiao Lian as if she were a tiny ant daring to rebel. "Xiao Lian, I admit, you are more talented than Xiao Wei. Even at the age of nineteen, you have reached the first rank of the Half-God Realm. Your breakthrough from the fourteenth rank of the Grand Saint Realm in just a few months is indeed impressive." Xiao Rui’s tone sounded like praise, but it carried no true admiration. "But remember this well." He continued, his voice growing heavier, a murderous aura slowly enveloping the area. "You are still from a branch family of the Xiao Clan. No matter how high your talent, you are nothing before the core clan." His eyes narrowed. "Never dare to defy me. If you challenge me again, I won’t hesitate to erase you here. Even if you still carry the Xiao Clan name, it means nothing to me." Xiao Lian showed no anger upon hearing Xiao Rui’s arrogant words. Instead, she only

    Xiao Tian’s eyes widened. There were no blockages. No meridian clogs. His body accepted everything perfectly. "Old beast, keep going!" he shouted inwardly. With Leihuo Dashi’s newfound strength, Xiao Tian released the Divine Sacred Vein Source. Wave after wave of pure energy, stronger than all the energy before, flowed into his body. The energy surged violently, flooding through his entire body, strengthening and expanding his dantian, his meridians, and his bodily foundation. BAANG BAANG BAANG BAANG!!! Bursts of energy roared continuously from within him. His cultivation soared. Seventh rank of the Grand Saint Realm. Eighth rank. Ninth rank. Tenth rank. It continued. Eleventh. Twelfth. Thirteenth. Fourteenth. Fifteenth. BOOM!!! A thunderous rumble erupted from Xiao Tian’s body. His dantian expanded instantly, forming a new sea of energy. His body radiated layered lights—gold, purple, red, and blue—creating a magnificent aurora around him. Xiao Tian broke thro

    Xiao Tian’s eyes turned red. His fists clenched tightly, and his body trembled. "Worthy? Do you think I’m some experiment? A toy? I am not a tool to measure worth! I am your child!" Xiao Tian roared, releasing the pain and anger he had buried for years. His roar shook the crystal world, causing fine cracks to appear on the surrounding stones. His fists clenched so tightly that his nails nearly pierced his skin. "If my life is only seen as worthy or unworthy, then I will show the world that I don’t need anyone’s approval!" His body shook violently. Not from weakness. But because his burning resolve ignited every fiber of his soul. Xiao Tian continued roaring as if wanting to destroy all the pain and grief spinning in his mind. Yet, amid that roar, something even more terrifying began to approach. From the darkness surrounding him, shadowy figures emerged. Demons of strange shapes, pitch black with blazing red eyes, began to encircle him. They whispered, their voices seemi

    Xiao Tian continued to explore the vast crystal world. Each step led him to breathtaking sights—crystal valleys, glowing rivers, forests of gem-like trees—all resembling a heavenly world untouched by mortal beings. However, as he passed through a series of natural corridors, his eyes caught something that made him stop. A massive gap opened before him. It wasn’t just an ordinary chamber; its size far surpassed anything he had seen. It was a continent. The continent stretched endlessly, reaching the horizon. But the truly astonishing part wasn’t its vastness. At the center of the continent, there stood a solitary figure. A Qilin—mythical creature of lightning—at a size that defied logic. The Qilin’s body towered like a mountain. Branching horns sprouted wildly from its head, each radiating pure lightning of gold, blue, and purple. Its body was covered in scales that resembled divine steel, yet each scale throbbed as if containing storms ready to erupt at any moment. Its cl

    His figure disappeared behind the hills, leaving the now-empty plaza, though it was still full of traces of extraordinary fortune. While speeding through the sky, Xiao Tian suddenly slowed his movement. His hand moved to clutch his chest, and his expression shifted slightly. There was a faint turbulence spreading from within him. It wasn’t from an ordinary wound, nor an enemy attack, but rather a subtle vibration from his own blood. Leihuo Dashi. Xiao Tian could feel something happening to his bloodline. That spiritual connection could not be denied. "Leihuo Dashi, what’s happening to you?" Xiao Tian asked, his voice not as firm as usual. This time, it was filled with concern. He didn’t even call him ‘old beast’ like he normally would. Leihuo Dashi answered, his tone heavy. "Boy, head west. Sixty thousand miles from here. Something there is calling me nonstop." Without wasting any time, Xiao Tian changed direction. He didn’t ask further questions. In a world like this, tr

    Xiao Tian was surrounded from all directions. The branches of the golden vine shot toward him, sharp like thousands of spears aiming to pierce his body mercilessly.When the branches were only a few inches away from him—BOOM!!!A majestic surge of soul power exploded from Xiao Tian's body, like an invisible storm sweeping across the area.In an instant, the ferocious golden branches froze in place, unable to move any further. The wild power that had threatened moments ago was now halted as if the entire world was holding its breath.Xiao Tian stood calmly at the center of the attack, his eyes coldly watching the trembling vine trapped under his soul pressure."Only possessing strength equivalent to a first-rank Half-God, yet you dare to try to kill me!"His tone was light, yet filled with sharp disdain.Xiao Tian did not immediately destroy the golden vine.Instead, he deliberately kept it restrained, ensuring that no other young cultivators dared to return to the plaza.He shifted h

    Dozens of young cultivators from various powers joined forces, forming a line, and attacked the golden vine with all the strength they could muster. Waves of energy strikes bombarded the plant. Explosion after explosion shook the plaza, and beams of battle techniques shot in every direction. However, no matter how strong their attacks were, the vine remained unyielding. Not a single branch was severed, nor did even a scratch appear on its surface. Instead, the plant grew wilder. Its branches danced through the air like giant whips, sweeping mercilessly in all directions. The attacks of the young cultivators seemed like mere provocations before the fury of the colossal plant. The more they attacked, the fiercer the plant’s retaliation became. While everyone struggled desperately to stay alive, Xiao Tian grew even more excited. He moved swiftly from one point to another, freely gathering Divine Stone Vein Sources, as if the entire plaza belonged to him. His steps were nimble, pr

    As everyone began scattering, searching for the whereabouts of the Divine Stone Vein Sources, Xiao Tian blended into the crowd. His movements were calm and unnoticeable, so no one paid attention to his presence among them. He walked slowly among the young hunters racing for fortune, his sharp eyes observing every movement around him. Every person who successfully found a Divine Stone Vein Source became his target of observation. Xiao Tian watched closely, beginning to recognize patterns and signs indicating the presence of a Divine Stone Vein Source. After clearly understanding the signs, he started moving toward quieter areas, away from the larger crowd. With the help of his Sky Eyes, Xiao Tian could easily see these signs, far more accurately than the other geniuses who still relied on basic instinct. BAANG!!! Xiao Tian struck a small white plant with a precise punch. The plant was not ordinary; it could shift locations very quickly, and not everyone could catch its movements

    Xiao Tian gazed at the four-level fifteen immortal plants now in his hands. The gentle light from the plants seemed to blend with his aura, giving a sense of life to the barren desert where he had stood earlier. He smiled in satisfaction. "It seems there are many treasures in this place. I must not waste them if I want to strengthen my cultivation. After all, my opponent has already reached the second rank of the Half-God Realm. Moreover, he comes from the Core Xiao Clan. His combat power cannot be measured by ordinary standards." Xiao Tian’s divine sense immediately spread in all directions. Layer by layer, he probed the earth, the air, and the surrounding divine energy, searching for traces of the next opportunity. While he was still focused on scanning nearby locations, a powerful tremor shook the world. BOOM!!! A massive explosion shook the air, and the sound of cracking earth echoed far and wide. Xiao Tian furrowed his brows. "That explosion is powerful. This isn't just a
