Chapter 381: Chapter 239: Spirit Sword

Li Qian left the Heavenly Sword Manor.

Of course, he also obtained the Outer Heaven Spirit Iron from the Old Manor Master.

Although the Outer Heaven Spirit Iron is precious, his promise is equally valuable.

If the Heavenly Sword Manor truly encountered a crisis, as long as it was within his capabilities, he would definitely protect it.

After escorting Li Qian out of the Heavenly Sword Manor, the Young Master Lin Qingping returned to the Ten Thousand Sword Bamboo Forest immediately.

"Ancestor, Daoist Qian Yuan...he..."

Lin Qingping couldn’t help but ask.

Because she knew of the ancestor’s intentions.

But when she had just escorted Li Qian out, it seemed different from what she had imagined.

"He did not agree."

The Old Manor Master shook her head, sighed, and said.

"He didn’t agree? Does he think I, Lin Qingping, am not worthy of him?"

The Young Master Lin Qingping instantly became annoyed.

She had always held herself in high regard, within the vast Heavenly Spring Gobi, the peers worthy of her attention were few and far between.

Had Qian Yuan not survived the Ten Thousand Sword Valley, making her take notice, she would probably have not cared for him either.

"He is very likely to achieve the Longevity Secret Realm within two hundred years."

The Old Manor Master looked at Lin Qingping with a light smile.

"What?"

Lin Qingping was shocked, "How is that possible, even I took three hundred sixty-eight years to step into the Longevity Secret Realm, he’s merely a Loose Cultivator, how could he possibly..."

"Let’s not talk about his cultivation; he has also already reached the level of Eleven Base in Array mastery."

The Old Manor Master felt it was a pity, such a heaven-defying talent with dual cultivation in Array and Martial arts, she couldn’t keep him in her Heavenly Sword Manor.

"This..."

Lin Qingping was stunned.

She had given up everything to break through to the Longevity Secret Realm, spending more than three hundred years doing so. Yet Qian Yuan had stepped into the Longevity Secret Realm in less than two hundred years, and his Array skills had reached the astonishing level of Eleven Base...

"Qingping, I have already given him that piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron."

The Old Manor Master suddenly said: "You...should take some initiative. This outstanding man, you should really seize the chance. Once missed, it’s truly missed."

"Eh... Ancestor, are you suggesting that I..."

Lin Qingping’s cheeks turned slightly red.

She had been raised as the successor of the Heavenly Sword Manor from childhood, developing a cold and arrogant temperament. The geniuses pursuing her were numerous, but she never cared for any of them.

"Qingping, if you want to continue our Heavenly Sword Manor’s lineage, you will eventually need to find a Dao Companion."

The Old Manor Master said with a light chuckle.

Speaking, she suddenly took out a small piece of red-golden strange metal, "This piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Copper was formed together with the Outer Heaven Spirit Iron. Both were prepared for you and your future husband."

"Ancestor, didn’t you say that I lacked the talent to forge a Spirit Sword?"

Lin Qingping couldn’t help but ask.

"You indeed lack the talent to forge a Spirit Sword, but if you can become Dao companions with Qian Yuan, since Outer Heaven Spirit Iron and Outer Heaven Spirit Copper are naturally occurring Spirit Gold, if you could Dual Cultivate... it would have great benefits for both of you at the time of Returning to Void."

The Old Manor Master shook her head and said.

"Ancestor, why didn’t you use these two pieces of Outer Heaven Spiritual Gold before?"

Lin Qingping asked curiously.

"Hehe, such a method must have one party with sufficient talent. If both parties lack the talent, naturally it’s useless, and even harmful. But this Qian Yuan has exceptional talent, he should be sufficient..."

The Old Manor Master chuckled lightly, "Qingping, as a woman, you should take the initiative when it’s necessary. I, the ancestor, have the ability to discern people. This Qian Yuan might have a cold nature, but he’s definitely not an ungrateful person, surely a perfect match for you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingping blushed slightly, acting coyly: "Ancestor, but I don’t know how to take the initiative..."

"Don’t worry about this, I will teach you some tricks..."

The Old Manor Master smiled, "Qingping, come here..."

Lin Qingping hurried over.

...

Back in Yiling Town.

Li Qian was very satisfied with his trip to the Heavenly Sword Manor.

Heartless Sword Intent entered the Dao Rhythm level, and he even obtained a piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron.

His destiny Spirit Sword had thus found its material.

Moreover... with the Sword Dao Rhythm combined with the Spirit Sword, his combat strength would be even stronger.

Li Qian took out the piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron, its silvery-gray body with strange patterns, the faint fluctuations of Spiritual Energy emanating from it told of its extraordinary nature.

Li Qian took a deep breath, ready to begin forging the Spirit Sword.

The process of forging the Spirit Sword was not complicated. It mainly involved using one’s own Spiritual Power to refine and incorporate the Sword Intent Dao Rhythm, creating a Sword Embryo, which after continuous nurturing and tempering over time, would eventually turn into a Spirit Sword.

This process would be lengthy, requiring a large amount of Spiritual Energy for nurturing.

So, for those with inadequate talent, who could barely satisfy their own cultivation, how could they provide sufficient Spiritual Energy for a Spirit Sword? In the end, there’s only one outcome, being drained by the Spirit Sword, life exhausted to death.

Li Qian extended his hands, outputting Spiritual Power, wrapping around the piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron, and he integrated the Sword Dao Rhythm into the Spirit Iron, continuously refining it.

Suddenly, this piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron began to gradually melt.

"Good grief, I didn’t expect the effect of Sword Dao Rhythm to be so astonishing?"

Li Qian showed a look of surprise.

Normally, to refine Outer Heaven Spirit Iron was not an easy task, it required a large amount of Spiritual Power, with Sword Intent to vibrate and guide, a process that chips away like water droplets on stone.

But now, he had effortlessly melted the Outer Heaven Spirit Iron.

This was actually the effect of Sword Dao Rhythm.

Next, he used both Sword Dao Rhythm and Spiritual Power to repeatedly temper... Finally, this piece of Outer Heaven Spirit Iron turned into the purest silver-white liquid, and under his guidance, gradually formed into a Sword Embryo.
