Behind the gate, there was a spacious and magnificent hall, not much different from the Ice Goddess’ palace hall in terms of splendor.
However, there was nothing there but a sword stuck in the center of the hall.
The sword was golden in color, quite long, and had two blades that looked like they could each cut through the sky.
Vaguely, there was a sharp light emanating from the sword. The light seemed to be able to tear apart whoever it enveloped because when you looked closely, you would find countless sword slashes within the light.
Elder Meng took a deep breath when she saw the sword. She looked at Jian Wuxin, nodding lightly to her.
The latter then took a step into the hall, toward the sword.
Her steps were slow but every time the soles of her feet stepped on the floor of the hall, the sound of footsteps echoed loudly.
Jian Wuxin quickly arrived in front of the sword.
She sighed softly then took out something from her storage ring.
It was an aluminum bottle, having a seal on it.
Jian Wuxin had to use her blood to break the seal.
Only after the seal disappeared could the bottle be opened.
Ciel peered into the bottle and found golden blood filled with power.
Even just looking at that blood made the blood in his body tremble uncontrollably, as if he was looking at supreme blood.
‘Wait, that’s not Blood Essence, right? How can there be so much Blood Essence?’ Ciel was confused.
Every cultivator practically had Blood Essence that if used could increase strength, but afterwards could cause the strength to weaken drastically unless the Blood Essence was replenished. That was not easy of course because replenishing Blood Essence required a large amount of resources.
Of course, the Blood Essence that each cultivator possessed was also not as much as in that bottle.
The owner should have collected it little by little.
As Ciel was still wondering, Jian Wuxin placed the bottle in front of the sword as she said, “father, please get up!”
Her words sounded like Thunder in Ciel’s ears. He opened his mouth as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
‘What does that mean?’ He wondered again.
Swish!
Suddenly the blood essence came out of the bottle and enveloped the sword.
The sword then shook violently, emitting more light.
After that, the sword began to absorb that Blood Essence so that it dried up very quickly.
“Wuxin, so it’s you, it’s a good thing you came here or I would have really died.” Suddenly a man’s voice that sounded very majestic echoed from the sword.
“Father, what exactly happened, why did you die?” asked Jian Wuxin.
Her words actually confirmed that her father had died, but it seemed that he had managed to live again by some method.
This wasn’t so surprising considering the Sword God was an extremely powerful God. People at his level practically had many unfathomable methods.
“It’s not something I can explain,” the Sword God replied.
“Anyway, you should leave immediately, my recovery will take a very long time, and this place will be full of chaos. Remember to keep this secret or our clan will be in serious trouble.”
Jian Wuxin closed her eyes at her father’s words. In the end, she sighed, nodding lightly towards the sword before turning to leave.
Her steps were a bit slow, but she couldn’t help but quicken her pace as there was a strong vibration that appeared.
When she arrived in front of the gate, Elder Meng grabbed her wrist then led her away at her speed.
It only took them an instant to arrive outside the tunnel again, and the tunnel instantly disappeared.
There were no visible effects from outside.
They tried to remain calm before looking at Ciel and the others. 𝑂𝑽𝐿xt.𝑪𝑜𝗆
However, they seemed to have no interest in caring about what they were doing.
Elder Meng directly took Jian Wuxin away.
Little did they know that Ciel was smiling as he watched their departure.
This was not a disgrace, but a secret that would be even more terrifying if revealed to the public.
It was necessary to know that any faction led by a God had so many resources, let alone a Supreme God.
When the God of the faction dies, it will be difficult for the faction to live peacefully.
The hungry wolves will regard it as meat without an owner.
Plus, such factions tended to have offended many people, so their enemies were truly countless.
Unless they had another God, it was difficult for them to survive.
As far as Ciel knew, the Jian Clan, which was the Sword God’s Clan did not have any other gods.
The Ice Palace at least had the first disciple of the Ice Goddess who was rumored to have become a God although her current whereabouts were unknown.
“What made you smile?” Mu Yueli suddenly asked Ciel.
The latter looked at her and laughed softly.
“How about I say that I smile because I think of you,” he said.
“You!” Mu Yueli blushed at that, not knowing whether she was annoyed or embarrassed.
“Boy, if I were you with the status you got, I wouldn’t think about worldly things anymore and focus on cultivating. You’re wasting the opportunity you have.” She said, giving advice to Ciel.
However, Ciel replied, “You’re wrong, I didn’t waste the opportunity I got. Like now, I’m asking for your help to obtain the Holy Spirit Flame. Tomorrow, I will ask the Goddess for help to repair my cultivation foundation. Then, I will cultivate with the Nature Spiritual Pill that the Elf Queen gave me. After that, I will ask the Goddess and the Queen for help to merge with the Holy Spirit Flame.
“Where am I wasting an opportunity? Of course, having a little fun isn’t a bad thing, it’s also making use of the opportunity I have, after all, cultivating doesn’t have to be all the time.”
Hearing that, Mu Yueli’s mouth froze, suddenly realizing that Ciel really had a structured plan.
Plus, those four opportunities were practically huge opportunities, able to turn someone who was originally mediocre into a seeming genius.
