Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

"Could it be that in your heart, I am merely a sword you use to deal with the Yama Clan?"

As soon as Zhao Shuang finished speaking, Ling Feiyu's expression changed, and he asked a question that was heartbreaking.

"Can you stop overthinking? Your current strength isn't worthy of becoming this sword, you know that? To put it bluntly. Besides, don't you want to compete with the number one among the younger generation of the Hell Realm and the Heavenly Court Realm, thus securing your position at the top of the Saint King Merit Ranking? You know, in other people's eyes, your position at the top of the Saint King Merit Ranking is only due to this Merit Holy War, not based on your true strength. Although your strength is sufficient, it's still quite far behind those veteran powerhouses at the peak of the Saint King Realm. Don't you want to prove your strength and make those who look down on you take notice? Of course, I know you don't care about these things, and what these things can exchange for is beyond your imagination. For example, these merit points are one of them. There are so many things that can be exchanged from the Merit Temple, and I hope you can understand that. The benefits these things can bring are far too many. In addition, following me to the Temple of Truth will bring even greater benefits, so stop overthinking."

"As for Yan Wushen, I originally intended to have him dealt with by my ninth brother, but the gap in strength between us is still too great, and he can't handle him. He needs to improve his strength further to be able to barely compare with him. So, among the people I can entrust him to, only you are suitable; no one else is appropriate. Besides that, I will also give you something else, something that is crucial to you. If you can obtain it, I can guarantee that your strength will increase rapidly, and it will also greatly benefit your ability to condense the Eternal Immortal Body. That thing is the Profound Meaning of the Sword. When I discussed the Dao with the Sword Ancestor, I obtained one-tenth of the Profound Meaning of the Sword from him, which is ten percent of the Sword Dao Profound Meaning. Combined with the sword profound meanings I had originally collected, I could say that I was another Sword Ancestor at that time. However, when I reincarnated, I distributed these sword profound meanings to everyone." "The universe, but even so, I have preserved a portion of its profound mysteries, which I refined during my last cultivation. However, during my subsequent reincarnation, I preserved it once more, and the location is the Conferred God Platform of the Temple of Truth—only I know the exact location. At that time, you can enter the Conferred God Platform to obtain this portion of the profound mysteries. If you can refine this portion of the profound mysteries, I can guarantee that your strength will improve by leaps and bounds. You will also be able to condense the Eternal Immortal Body more quickly. However, I still hope that you can temporarily postpone the condensation of the Eternal Immortal Body. Because, as you said, you are my sharp sword against Yan Wushen. This sword must defeat Yan Wushen and destroy his arrogant heart. It would be best if it could be destroyed, but if not, it doesn't matter. Anyway, for me, as long as I can defeat him, you don't need to worry about anything else."

"Besides this profound mystery, there are other good things that I placed in the Conferred God Platform. Whether you can obtain them depends on your luck. Obtaining any one of these things would be of great benefit to any sword cultivator. It would also allow you to condense the Eternal Immortal Body more quickly and make it even more perfect. While it may not be unprecedented or unparalleled, it would at least rank in the top ten. That's enough."

"Most importantly, it also includes a semi-divine artifact. This semi-divine artifact of swordsmanship is something I painstakingly crafted. If you can subdue and refine it, I can guarantee that you will become one of the most powerful sword cultivators in this world. Its weapon spirit has also been sealed by me. Once you become a god, you will naturally be able to awaken its weapon spirit, and then you will be able to completely control that semi-divine artifact."

Zhao Shuang's words were undeniably captivating, but Ling Feiyu was more concerned about something else entirely.

"Why is it a semi-divine artifact, and not a true divine artifact? With your abilities, forging a divine artifact should be effortless."

"You're overthinking it. Do you really believe that divine artifacts are so easy to forge? In all these years, the Kunlun Realm has only produced ten divine artifacts. It's already quite an achievement that I was able to forge this one and a half divine artifacts. Moreover, due to time constraints, I could only forge it to halfway. However, if you have enough strength to become a god in the future, you can find some materials and forge it again, which will elevate it to the level of a divine artifact. At that time, you will possess a divine artifact. This will be of great help to you. A divine sword! Divine swords are extremely rare in the entire Heavenly Court Realm and the Hell Realm."

Zhao Shuang's words silenced Ling Feiyu, but he eventually nodded in agreement, not dwelling on what had just been said.

"Ah, if you can successfully use this calamity in the Kunlun Realm to become a Great Sage and condense a true eternal body, then your chances of becoming a god in the future will greatly increase. Most importantly, you will possess more profound mysteries. One-tenth of the profound mysteries—do you know what that means? It means you will become a top existence in the way of the sword. If one day you can obtain some more profound mysteries of the sword and become a Sword God, then you will have the opportunity to become the second Sword Ancestor. This is an unparalleled temptation for any sword cultivator."

"Don't you want to become the second ancestor of swordsmanship?"

"This is none of your business, and this matter is no longer your concern. But I hope you can help me one more time."

Ling Feiyu's words stunned Zhao Shuang. Hadn't he helped enough? Was there something else?
"Is there anything else you need? Just say the word, and I will do my best to help you with anything I can."

"Besides this one-tenth of the profound mysteries, are there no other profound mysteries? You should know very well where these profound mysteries are located?"

"I understand that, but with your current strength, trying to find those profound mysteries is just courting death; it's simply impossible."

“I know all of this, so I plan to seek out these mysteries after I become a god. As long as I can obtain these mysteries, I will be able to become the second Sword Ancestor, just as you said.”

Ling Feiyu's words can be seen as full of self-confidence, and it can be said that he believes he can become the second Sword Ancestor.

"Alright? Since you've made your decision, I naturally won't say anything more. After you become a god, I will naturally help you obtain those profound mysteries and tell you who their current masters are. We should go to the Realm of Truth now, the Realm of Truth opened up by the Temple of Truth. I hope those guys who occupied the Moon God's Dojo will get lost!" Zhao Shuang's words made Ling Feiyu a little puzzled.

"Within the Realm of Truth established by the Temple of Truth, only gods can create dojos, and gods will leave their insights into the mysteries of truth—no, I should say the rules of truth—within the dojos. However, due to the fall of the Guanghan Realm in recent years, these dojos have been occupied. Therefore, one of my purposes in going to the Guanghan Realm this time is to reclaim these dojos. If nothing unexpected happens, they should have already left. If they haven't left, I will slaughter them all. No matter which world these dojos occupy now, it's not important to me."

"Because if they don't leave, there's only one fate awaiting them: death. That's not difficult for me either. They're no match for me, and all I have to do is send them all to hell—no, they can't even get into hell. Hell is a place for the underworld, it has nothing to do with them. Once they enter hell, it's certain death. They won't even have the chance to reincarnate. But I won't let them have the chance to reincarnate, because I'll annihilate their souls. That's something I can do, so if they're even slightly sensible, there won't be any problem. If they're not, then I can wipe them all out."

Zhao Shuang's seemingly arrogant remarks did not surprise Ling Feiyu, who then asked another question.

"Does that mean the Daoist temples in the Kunlun Realm have also been occupied by other worlds?"

“That’s right. And this time I’m going to the old bald monk’s dojo to get something. That thing is crucial to the entire Kunlun Realm. If the Kunlun Realm can get it, there might still be a glimmer of hope. If we can’t get it, then we’ll be in trouble. But since I’m going to the Realm of Truth, then unless something unexpected happens, those guys from the old bald monk’s dojo should have already disappeared. If they haven’t disappeared, then I will make them disappear. I hope they understand that.”

Zhao Shuang's words made Ling Feiyu shake his head, and then he spoke.

"That's probably impossible. Even if you go to the Realm of Truth, they might not give up the temple left behind by the Holy Monk. After all, everything left behind by the Holy Monk is extremely precious, let alone the temple. Moreover, they will definitely know about this and will try every means to prevent you from obtaining what the Holy Monk left behind."

"Although you are incredibly powerful now, if they were to use all their strength to stop you, you might not be able to withstand it. Moreover, I have a feeling they will use other methods. If they don't let you into the dojo, how will you be able to reclaim what the holy monk left behind?"

Ling Feiyu's words made Zhao Shuang silent for a moment, but Zhao Shuang didn't pay any attention to them.

"If that's the case, then I'll take over all the dojos in the Realm of Truth. That wouldn't be too difficult for me either."

"And what if they don't even let you enter the Realm of Truth, or forbid you from attacking the dojos? You should be well aware of the current situation. With your current strength, you are simply too heaven-defying. It would be easy for you to change the entire situation in the Heavenly Court Realm, especially the situation of the younger generation. No matter how strong the younger generation is, they are no match for you. Not to mention others, even the prodigy Yan Wushen of the Yama Clan that you just mentioned, even if he were ten, a hundred, or a thousand times stronger, he might not be your match. Under such circumstances, both the Heavenly Court Realm and the Hell Realm will definitely try every means to stop you. The Realm of Truth will definitely encounter such trouble this time. They will definitely do everything in their power to stop you. They will absolutely not allow you to break the rules." "Yes, because if you were to make a move, it would undoubtedly break the rules, even though you have now successfully reincarnated. You are still considered an elder, and a being of the heavenly level. Even if you could only unleash one ten-millionth of your power, it would be enough to annihilate all the younger generation. Under such circumstances, who could be your opponent? If you make a move, you will inevitably break the rules, at least in their eyes, even if you abide by them. That's why they allowed you to participate in the Holy War of Merit last time; they saw the price they would pay if they didn't. Under those circumstances, they had no choice but to allow you to participate. But now, they probably wouldn't allow you again."

"So what you can do now is to protect the strength of others as much as possible, rather than protecting your own strength. Because no matter how strong you are now, you will be subject to checks and balances. Unless you can return to your peak, everything you do now will have a great impact on them."

These were the words of his father-in-law, and Zhao Shuang frowned slightly at them before smiling and saying something else.

"To put it bluntly, you still hope that I can teach Feiyu some more powerful techniques, such as the Great Dao Divine Powers. You want to ensure that Feiyu's strength can truly make him the number one among the younger generation, so that Feiyu has the power to kill a Great Sage. You even want Feiyu to be able to kill a god during the Great Sage's era, just like the Empress did back then. Only in this way can Feiyu's safety be guaranteed, since everyone knows about Feiyu's relationship with me now. So as his father, you must ensure his safety, but you don't have the power to do so, and can only place all your hopes on me, hoping that I can help Feiyu reach this level."

Zhao Shuang glanced at his father-in-law, who nodded in agreement.

"Yes, that's exactly what I meant. I really hope you can guarantee Feiyu's safety." (End of Chapter)
