Chapter 939: Chapter 938: Sword Nourishing Gourd

"Whew..."

As the Earth Core Green Flame was invoked, the Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace began to blaze fiercely.

The formations engraved on the Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace also began to take effect.

"Zzz..."

At this moment, it wasn’t just the small courtyard where Zhang Xiaoshan was situated, but the entire Blue and White Courtyard being roasted by the high temperatures. The cold winter season had abruptly turned into scorching summer; water vapor evaporated, and the entire courtyard was enveloped in white mist, resembling a sea of clouds.

"What’s happening?"

"It’s so hot..."

Although business wasn’t open today, there were still some staff around.

People’s eyes were filled with curiosity and they murmured among themselves.

"Everyone go back to your rooms, no random peeking or asking questions."

Boss Mei’s scolding made everyone leave in a hurry.

Not far from Zhang Xiaoshan’s courtyard, at a pavilion, Boss Mei and the Qi Transformation Elder furrowed their brows, gazing towards the courtyard.

In the yard, Master Hei, who had cultivated the Evil Skill, was curled up in the corner, shivering.

"Such strength; it turns out that in that lakeside pavilion earlier, Miracle Doctor Zhang did not even use a third of his power."

"The power of this flame is too strong."

"And this bronze furnace is not an ordinary artifact; the art of Artifact Refining and Alchemy is even more mysterious and rare than Cultivation."

"Just who is he really? Could he be a thousand-year-old spirit from the mountains, transformed into humanoid form, here to play among mortals?"

While Master Hei was indulging in wild fantasies and continuous lamentation.

An anomaly had already occurred in the scene.

"Boom..."

Suddenly, the lid of the Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace was blasted off from inside by a massive surge of energy.

Immediately, a red-gold light shot out from inside.

"Boom."

A massive energy directly leveled the small courtyard to the ground.

"Whoosh."

The red-gold light moved at incredible speed.

It vanished in a flash, shooting straight towards the southeast sky.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a figure raced after that red-gold light.

"What, what happened?"

Boss Mei and the Qi Transformation Elder, watching from afar, were in shock as they observed the small courtyard collapse with a thunderous crash.

"Who is this Miracle Doctor Zhang really?"

"In the blink of an eye, he leveled such a large courtyard to the ground?"

"We can’t afford to mess with him."

The two pondered nervously.

Zhang Xiaoshan sped forward.

The Heavenly Dragon Step Skill was deployed. With his current cultivation level, though he couldn’t soar through the skies, he could achieve low-altitude gliding.

Each step covered about a hundred feet.

A few minutes later, Zhang Xiaoshan had chased for several kilometers.

He had already entered a section of the Qinling Mountains.

Majestic mountains loomed all around.

"Whoosh."

Zhang Xiaoshan’s body suddenly erupted with a surge of white energy.

Like a white ribbon, it directly locked onto the red-gold light.

The white ribbon rapidly contracted.

"Susu..."

Seeing the suddenly appeared Susu by his side, Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed.

"You can appear again?"

Susu replied.

"You’ve gained quite a lot of energy lately, so I can barely manifest and use some of my power."

"Most importantly, this item is worth manifesting for."

Susu made a gesture, and the red-gold gourd was held in her hand.

The gourd was no more than an inch high, somewhat exquisite, and appeared plain, yet it exuded a killing intent.

"Is this gourd the Ghost-nurturing Gourd I refined?"

"It seems... a bit different..."

"What Ghost-nurturing Gourd? That was merely Master Hei’s mortal eyes failing to recognize the true nature of this item, thus wasting a treasure."

"This is the Sword Nourishing Gourd."

"Sword Nourishing Gourd?"

"Is this thing powerful?"

Zhang Xiaoshan didn’t know much about these things.

Susu spoke excitedly.

"It’s not just powerful, it’s terrifying. This Sword Nourishing Gourd, even in my homeland, is an extremely rare treasure."

"As the name suggests, the Sword Nourishing Gourd is a gourd used for nurturing swords."

"To some extent, the Sword Nourishing Gourd is a Space Artifact, similar to your bracelet."

"But its wondrous aspect lies in its ability to nurture flying swords. Even some of the most ordinary sharp swords, after being placed in the Sword Nourishing Gourd for several days, will evolve into Magic Artifact flying swords."

"The level of the Sword Nourishing Gourd directly determines the grade of the nurtured flying swords. The higher the grade of the Sword Nourishing Gourd, the more powerful the flying swords will be."

"Moreover, the internal space of the Sword Nourishing Gourd varies in size—larger ones can nurture many flying swords, smaller ones fewer."

"Imagine nurturing a hundred flying swords at once. At a critical moment, unleashing them all—can you imagine that scene?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan was even more excited.

"Then, what grade is this Sword Nourishing Gourd?"

His gaze at Susu was filled with anticipation.
