System's Super Sect Chapter 1434 1211: Cyan Lotus Sword Acquired!

After sending the Ice Sword and Ice Soul to his parents, Wen Ping immediately entered the Final Forbidden Area, prepared to retrieve the sword left for him by the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal in the Cyan Dragon Cave.

With his current strength, passing the third level should be more than enough.

At the same time, Prince Longyang returned to the Prince's Mansion through the Teleportation Array. The first thing he did upon returning was to gather his confidants to discuss the plan.

Drawing Sima Tianxuan out of the Capital City is not easy.

However, with some clever maneuvering, it is still achievable.

The greatest challenge lies in how to allow the Immortal Sect to kill Sima Tianxuan legitimately, without incurring the wrath of the Sovereign.

Sima Tianxuan is not Lie Yao; he ranks only second to He Youyuan of the Inspection Hall in You Country and has established many illustrious achievements over the years.

It is unrealistic to accuse him with a fabricated charge or to frame him.

After hours of discussion, Prince Longyang decided on a strategy, which is to use the Celestial Ranking, an established authority in people's minds, to craft a narrative.

...

Final Forbidden Area.

Cyan Dragon Cave.

Upon returning to the third level, Wen Ping was filled with excitement, and directly wielded his sword to charge in.

One sword strike, repelling the Black Shadow!

No suspense!

The Black Shadow, defeated for the first time, did not attempt a further attack; instead, along with the Cyan Lotus Sword Intent filling the air, it transformed into mottled points of light and dissipated in the Cyan Dragon Cave.

Having passed the third level, Wen Ping immediately followed the path ahead and ventured deeper, ultimately reaching the depths of the Cyan Pool.

Above the Cyan Pool, a blue long sword accompanied by a panoramic display of Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus quietly floated, its sharp sword intent terrifying Wen Ping, who had just conquered the third level.

Is this the Immortal Sword of the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal?

It truly transcends the mundane!

With this sword, Wen Ping dares to challenge Half-Step Primordial Vast!

Suddenly.

A voice was heard.

"Can we not cut the bamboo?"

Following that, the Cyan Lotus Sword transformed into a flowing white robe in the wind, cradling a jug of wine, was the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal Li Bai. Except, it lacked the Sword Immortal's charisma.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ping was momentarily dumbfounded.

Wasn't this something he casually said in frustration before?

Turns out this guy had been watching him the whole time!

"Sure, if not cutting bamboo, then chopping wood will do." Wen Ping chuckled to himself inwardly, feeling neither surprised nor concerned about the Cyan Lotus Sword having spoken nor taken human form.

After all, in the Demon Emperor Lake, even a blade of grass or a rock can become a Demon Immortal.

A sword taking human form and speaking is, indeed, nothing extraordinary.

"No…" cried the Cyan Lotus Sword with a mournful expression.

"Wait, collect your expressions. The refined and extraordinary aura of the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal, all ruined by your expression," Wen Ping quickly interjected, then proceeded to examine the details of the Cyan Lotus Sword.

To Wen Ping's surprise, the Cyan Lotus Sword was not only a sword but also endowed with its own power.

[Cyan Lotus Sword]

[Grade: Immortal Artifact]

[Ownership: Wen Ping (Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm—can unlock Fifth Layer restriction)]

[Restriction layers unlocked: Fifth Layer (out of eight layers total)]

"Fifth Layer restriction, what does that mean?"

The system answered, "The power of Immortal Artifacts is destructive; if not controlled, the user would be the first to perish. Hence, the system established eight layers of restriction; the stronger the host's power, the more layers can be unlocked."

"Then, what does the Fifth Layer represent?"

"Each restriction layer opens a realm; with each layer unlocked, the host's power potential increases, and the transformed Cyan Lotus Sword's power likewise strengthens."

Upon hearing the system's explanation, Wen Ping felt pleasantly surprised.

This is not just a mere sword.

It is practically a person!

"Quite amazing, but does the Cyan Lotus Sword currently only possess the combat power of Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm?"

If that's true.

Then it's quite disappointing indeed!

Quickly, the system explained, "Not at all, the host currently possesses invincible power below Half-Step Primordial Vast, hence the Cyan Lotus Sword, when transformed, also possesses invincible power below Half-Step Primordial Vast."

"So it does."

Upon hearing the system's clarification, Wen Ping showed a satisfied smile, then immediately commanded the Cyan Lotus Sword to revert to its original form.

Grabbing the Cyan Lotus Sword, Wen Ping promptly exited the Cyan Dragon Cave, but upon departure, he discovered the Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus Sword Intent accompanying the Cyan Lotus Sword had reverted to Six-leaf Cyan Lotus Sword Intent.

The system explained that the level of the owner's Sword Intent determines the Cyan Lotus Sword's upper limit.

Should Wen Ping's Cyan Lotus Sword Intent reach perfection.

The Cyan Lotus Sword could also be accompanied by Seven-leaf Cyan Lotus Sword Intent.

One day, when Wen Ping's Cyan Lotus Sword Intent reaches Transformation Realm.

The Cyan Lotus Sword Intent can also be joined by Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus.

Regarding this outcome, Wen Ping expressed significant regret; had he known earlier, he wouldn't have retrieved the Cyan Lotus Sword.

Leaving it there would've allowed him to efficiently study the Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus and understand the sword intent deeply.

"What a loss, what a loss," Wen Ping lamented, sprinting out of the Cyan Dragon Cave, he promptly brandished the Cyan Lotus Sword to unleash his ultimate move, Cyan Lotus Chaotic Dance.

This time, Wen Ping did not use the Vortex Map to enhance the power of Cyan Lotus Chaotic Dance; nor did he fuse the Cyan Lotus Flame to improve the destructiveness of the Cyan Lotus Sword Intent.

However, Wen Ping felt that it was several times stronger than the full-force attack he used to defeat the Black Shadow just now, and it gave him the feeling that under the Half-Step Primordial Vast, all were ants.

"I feel like I can have a go at a Half-Step Primordial Vast." Wen Ping was full of anticipation, but he was not complacent.

Continue cultivation.

Breaking the Upper Realm is the most reliable method.

Even if you can have a go at a Half-Step Primordial Vast, if you don't have the assurance to kill them, it's certainly not feasible.

"Transform back." Wen Ping tossed the Cyan Lotus Sword outward, and then, after it transformed into human form, he immediately left the Final Forbidden Area, leaving behind a gorge extending ten miles!

After leaving the Final Forbidden Area, Wen Ping thought of letting the Cyan Lotus Sword roam the Sect while he went to cultivate. But just as he left Fa Yuan Valley and saw the Jianmu and Immortal Tree of Yunlan Mountain.

Wen Ping suddenly had a thought.

Although the Jianmu and Immortal Tree in the Immortal Sect are flourishing, watered daily with Spiritual Water, the production of Wood Qi simply can't keep up with his Realm. He can only rely on planting more to increase the Wood Qi output.

But this limitation seems rather strong.

If the Immortal Tree and Jianmu were planted in Immortal Pu Garden, could that dissolve the limitation on their Wood Qi production?

After sensing Wen Ping's speculation, the system immediately responded, "The Jianmu and Immortal Tree can indeed be planted in Immortal Pu Garden."

"Alright!"

Saying and doing, Wen Ping prepared to move half of the tree-planting team to Immortal Pu Garden the next day.

Strive to break the Upper Realm as quickly as possible!

Immediately after, Wen Ping opened the system panel and looked at his reputation gains over the past few days.

Forty-five thousand reputation!

This indicates that over these days, the Purple Treasure Pavilion sold forty-five Vortex Maps or Vortex Killing Artifacts.

"System, if I want to upgrade the Nirvana House's ceiling to Primordial Vast Level, how much reputation would be required?"

"To upgrade the ceiling to Primordial Vast Level requires three upgrades, totaling two hundred thousand reputation."

"Which means, at the current selling pace of the Purple Treasure Pavilion for Vortex Maps or Vortex Killing Artifacts, I need to save up for at least thirty-five days." Since the Purple Treasure Pavilion opens sales every seven days.

Thirty-five days.

That's manageable.

Acceptable.

He can wait.

After all, You Country and Cover Sky Tower have already started a great war, and even if the Sovereign of You Country is dissatisfied with his actions or the actions of the Immortal Sect, he certainly won't tear face with the Immortal Sect.

Just as Wen Ping was about to return to Tingyu Pavilion, he received an urgent message from Sikong Zhuxing.

"Sect Leader Wen, things have become a bit troublesome."

"What trouble?"

"Today, when you welcomed Prince Longyang into the Immortal Sect with that white beam, the whole city saw it, including the Sovereign." Sikong Zhuxing shivered thinking about that scene, because he was just telling the Sovereign that the Immortal Sect decided not to cooperate.

Despite his diplomatic wording, trying hard not to let the Sovereign be embarrassed by the Immortal Sect's decision, the Sovereign still got angry upon seeing that white beam welcoming Prince Longyang.

"And then?" Doomed to be adversaries, so Wen Ping wasn't concerned with what the You Country Sovereign thought.

Sikong Zhuxing said helplessly, "The Sovereign ordered me to send people from the Inspection Hall to secretly infiltrate the Exhaustive Hanging Tower, trying to understand its situation. So that they can eliminate it at any time. Additionally, the Sovereign expressed dissatisfaction with the Celestial Ranking, even though Si Haixian's battle has already proven the authority of the Celestial Ranking."

To send or not to send?

This is a matter of choosing between life and death.

"No problem, you can insert at will, just inform Chen Xie in advance." Wen Ping responded indifferently.

Because, despite the Exhaustive Hanging Tower being well-staffed and publicly renowned, the actual controller is only Chen Xie. And only people from the Immortal Sect can truly enter the Exhaustive Hanging Tower.

So being infiltrated by some spies is irrelevant, since all they can do is sell the Immortal Daily.

"Sect Leader Wen, does this all not matter?" Sikong Zhuxing was a bit stunned.

Wen Ping nodded, "It's irrelevant. As for his dissatisfaction with the Celestial Ranking, let him continue being dissatisfied. Anything else?"

"No... nothing else." Sikong Zhuxing didn't know what else to say for a moment.

He thought Wen Ping would be anxious upon hearing that the You Country Sovereign planned to insert spies into the Exhaustive Hanging Tower and wanted to eliminate it.

Alright.

He overthought.

"By the way, Sect Leader Wen, Sima Tianxuan is still extremely dissatisfied with the Celestial Ranking. Si Haixian's battle didn't shut him up; he openly calls the appearance of the Celestial Ranking an insult to the Royal Family. If he's allowed to continue, once it reaches the Royal Ancestor of the closed-off clan, things might be troublesome. The reclusive Royal Ancestor might be furious at the existence of the Celestial Ranking."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ping pondered for a while and then said, "No need to bother with him, let him fuss as he likes. Ideally, let it reach the Royal Ancestor, then all problems are easily solved."

"Huh?"

Sikong Zhuxing was taken aback.

He was dumbfounded.

Suddenly.

He had a thought.

Could it be that the Immortal Sect also has a Half-Step Primordial Vast presence?

If such a strong figure didn't exist, how could Sect Leader Wen have such confidence?

It must be!

Sikong Zhuxing speculated that the Half-Step Primordial Vast figure agreed only to intervene when a Half-Step Primordial Vast threat appeared, which was why Sect Leader Wen said if the Royal Ancestor found out, the problem would be easier to solve.

When everyone knows, or the You Country Royal Family knows the Immortal Sect has a Half-Step Primordial Vast in residence.

Forget the Celestial Ranking, even if another Heaven-Earth Ranking comes, the You Country Royal Family would certainly not be enraged.

Because a Half-Step Primordial Vast presence is exceedingly important to You Country!

Enough to break the balance between You Country and Cover Sky Tower!
