Artifacts are objects imbued with spiritual power and possess various effects. Half divine grade artifacts, like the one being auctioned, are considered extremely powerful and rare.This particular artifact has been forged using rare materials and infused with compelling spiritual energy. It is capable of causing immense damage and providing special abilities that surpass what ordinary cultivators can achieve.Typically, such artifacts are owned by sect leaders, powerful elders, or other influential individuals."Yes, master!" Xiao Zhu nodded eagerly."I'm not sure why the Lin family decided to put an artifact of this grade up for auction, but from my intuition, all I need to do is acquire it for Xiao Zhu and unlock its true potential... hehe," Xiao Feng chuckled.The artifact possesses a spiritual essence that resonates beyond the lower realm and possibly reaches the divine realm. It is a growth-type artifact that increases in power as the user's cultivation level grows. It forms a s
"I remember telling this little guy not to spoil the fun of it, now see what he has done," Xiao Feng mumbled as he let out a sigh."Little guy, stop embarrassing your master," Xiao Feng said with a gentle tone.The young master of the Heavenly Sword Sect and his crew kept watching as they displayed their skills. Xiao Feng spoke again, this time with a patient and friendly demeanor, "Without wasting much of our time, let me have the golden fiery sword, so we can take our leave quickly. We have somewhere to be."The whole crew began to laugh, finding Xiao Feng's request amusing. They couldn't believe that a foundation establishment realm cultivator and a core formation realm master would dare to challenge fifty nascent soul realm cultivators and an immortal ascension realm master. They thought Xiao Feng and his group were courting death.The young master of the Heavenly Sword Sect let out a sigh of relief, realizing that his initial fear of tough enemies was unfounded. It turned out tha
{Yawn! After a thousand years, I finally see the brightness of the day. Being locked in eternal darkness was not pleasant, something I won't wish to experience again. Thank you. And what is your name?}“My name is Xiao Zhu.”[Little Uncle Xiao Feng, this sword can talk, its voice is resounding in my ears], he said, panicked.[No need to worry about that. It's a growth-type artifact that possesses consciousness. Just make sure it submits to you. They are known to be stubborn.][Yes, Little Uncle Xiao.]“Hmm, thanks to me, you've left that eternal darkness of yours. So what are you going to do for me in return?” Xiao Zhu said to the sword.“Yes, only the contractor can hear its voice,” he thought.{I promise to protect you until you die}, the golden fiery sword resounded in Xiao Zhu's mind.“Huh! Until I die or until you get destroyed? Well, I don't plan to die, at least not until I surpass Little Uncle Xiao, and I'm seeing that in the next thousand years,” he thought inwardly.“Congrat
"What?" Xiao Zhu exclaimed."Oh yeah, you're allowed to use sword Qi now... hehe," said Xiao."Little Uncle Xiao, what difference would that make when my energy is almost depleted?" he asked."What difference would it make when you're telling me?" replied Xiao."Damn! I know this is all about training me so I can be a strong companion who wouldn't drag you down, but isn't this too much?""Strong companion? The fact is you're too weak, you've never been in a perilous situation. There was a time when Xuan Ping and I almost lost our lives to a supreme realm powerhouse. That day was dreadful, so I want you to have a near-death experience, so it won't freak you out while hardening your resolve to grow stronger," Xiao explained."Come to think of it, Little Uncle Xiao, you haven't told me much about Martial Uncle Xuan Ping," he stated."That'll be a story for another day. Focus on your enemy," replied Xiao."Fuck!" he exclaimed."Hey little boy, I saw your fight with those lousy Heavenly Sw
Xuan Ping lay comfortably on his bed in his court, enjoying the privileges of being a core disciple in the Endless Sky Sect. As he relaxed, he couldn't help but feel a longing for his elder brother and junior sister. "Are they thinking of me too?" he wondered.A loud bang interrupted his thoughts as someone knocked on the door. Fatigued from his three years at the Endless Sky Sect, Xuan Ping began to wonder who it could be. The experience was nothing compared to when he, Xiao Feng, and his junior sister Xu Qing travelled the world together."Come in," Xuan Ping said calmly and soothingly."Good day, Senior Brother. The Sect Master wants to meet you," the visitor said politely."Okay, I'll be there in a jiffy," Xuan Ping replied.Once the junior left, Xuan Ping stood up and made his way to the Sect Master's Abode. As he entered, he saw the Sect Master with his back turned, hands folded behind him, sighing."You're here. I want to take you somewhere," the Sect Master said.Xuan Ping loo
The remaining three supreme beings chuckled as they finally relieved the guards, causing them to scurry away in fear."Kid, be on your best behavior or else..." one of the supreme beings warned Lan Wei.Lan Wei's ears almost burst from the overwhelming pressure of their Qi. He quickly blocked both his ears with his hands, groaning in agony."That is just a taste of what you'll feel whenever you make us pass through unnecessary stress," another supreme being remarked, their voices resonating with power.The four supreme beings closed their eyes in the darkness, entering into a deep meditation.Fear gripped Lan Wei, but this time he had made up his mind. For the past three years, he had endured hardship alone, hoping his grandfather would come and save him. But now, he knew he had to take matters into his own hands. He started planning his escape, searching for any loopholes in the prison cave.With a sense of urgency, Lan Wei began to cultivate using the single cultivation technique he
Xuan Ping and the first four core disciples left for their mission. Since they didn't have much intel on the Shadowmon sect, the best place to gather information would be an inn or a tavern.The first four disciples were still wondering why the sect master had chosen Xuan Ping to accompany them, considering the importance of the mission. They ordered food, and Xuan Ping didn't care about anything else except his favorite dish. However, it wasn't on the menu, so he settled for something else.Sitting at a table, Xuan Ping observed his surroundings, his ears attentively listening to every conversation in the inn."Damn, it's so noisy. And they call themselves core disciples," he thought to himself."Did you hear about it?""What?" the other disciple asked.Immediately, Xuan Ping's ears picked up a conversation that seemed like it could provide a clue."It's about the Shadow Moon sect. They have deployed their four supreme beings just to guard a little kid," he replied."How did you fin
Xiao Feng and Xiao Zhu left the inn after renaming themselves the Eternal Shadows. Xiao Feng had bestowed each of them with soothing cultivation techniques. With their new identity, they were now renowned as a group with the sole mission of cultivating and growing stronger while awaiting their main assignment.Xiao Zhu had taken up the mantle of leader for the Eternal Shadows, with Lie Wei serving as the leader in his absence. Liu Ying, known for his tenacity and thirst for strength, became the vice leader.Late at night, Xiao Zhu grew concerned about not being able to rest properly since they had to depart soon. He asked Xiao Feng, "Little Uncle Xiao, why aren't we sleeping at the inn?"Xiao Feng replied, "Obviously, I don't want any complications to arise there. We can return once we've finished what we need to do."Blossom Peak interjected, "Why does it always become chaotic whenever you're with this master of yours?"Feeling sleepy, Xiao Zhu rubbed his face and said, "Even I'm con
