This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

The lotus pod suddenly stopped emitting spiritual energy and instead began to absorb it, indicating that a greater change was brewing.

Qingfeng stared intently at the lotus seedpod, watching as the pile of spirit crystals in the pond rapidly dimmed.

Originally, the lotus pod was closed, but under the nourishment of this spiritual energy, the rudiments of two lotus seeds slowly began to appear, and they matured rapidly, gradually becoming more prominent.

"This is the real treasure..."

Qingfeng murmured to himself.

This forbidden and secret realm shows absolutely no signs of human activity and has existed for countless millennia.

This lotus seedpod has been growing in this pond for who knows how long.

There has never been any external intervention.

Now, suddenly stimulated by the spiritual energy of these spirit crystals, it is finally time for me to be born.

As the spirit crystals in the pool were rapidly depleted, the two lotus seeds finally reached their final moment.

A gentle breeze could already faintly reveal the two rays of light contained within the lotus seedpod.

It is like a warm sun, full of vitality and containing infinite spirituality.

A blade of ice, seemingly frosty and filled with boundless killing power, was like a peerless divine sword with its edge hidden in its sheath.

However, at this very last moment, the two lotus seeds suddenly stopped maturing and even showed signs of shrinking back.

Qingfeng quickly looked down into the water and saw that the pile of spirit crystals had been exhausted and the supply of spiritual energy was insufficient.

"Just a little bit more..."

Qingfeng immediately threw down the last piece of white spirit crystal he had on him.

With the activation of spiritual energy, the connection was finally restored.

However, it seemed that the lotus seed was becoming more difficult at the last moment, as even a single white spirit crystal, enough for a master of the Ninth Heaven to absorb for many years, was still not enough.

Seeing that the lotus seed was about to fall silent again, Qingfeng didn't care about anything else and began to channel his magic power into it.

Qingfeng never expected that his hasty actions would trigger an even more astonishing change.

The moment the magic power was injected into the lotus seedpod, two beams of light, one golden and one blue, shot into the sky, intertwined in the heavens, and then exploded with a roar.

Finally, it transformed into a two-colored lotus flower, alternating between gold and blue, high in the heavens.

In the center of the lotus platform, a phantom of a divine sword floated above it, radiating a terrifying sword intent that caused the surrounding void to shatter and then rapidly reform.

The long river of time that had hung above the desolate region for millions of years was also affected, splashing up ripples.

This awe-inspiring phenomenon was not only witnessed by Qingfeng, but also by the swordsmen outside the Sword Tomb who lingered there year after year hoping to obtain a trace of the Sword Emperor's inheritance.

Moreover, even in the void above the Xuan Domain and Tian Domain of the Xuanhuang Great World, golden and blue light appeared, condensing into a faint lotus flower.

"This is the Yin-Yang Sword Lotus... one of the five immortal elixirs of Xuanhuang..."

Those with profound knowledge couldn't help but exclaim in surprise upon seeing the strange phenomenon in the sky.

"Legend has it that the Yin-Yang Sword Lotus was created by the ancient Sword Emperor by fusing his sword intent with the immortal medicine Yin-Yang Lotus. It will give birth to two lotus seeds, Yin and Yang. Anyone who obtains one of them can awaken an unparalleled sword body with the potential of a Great Emperor and have a lifespan of ten thousand years."

"Could it be that this immortal herb has actually matured at this time..."

Outside the Sword Tomb, in the Xuan Domain, and within the Heavenly Domain, countless powerful figures watched this scene with envy.

Even those quasi-emperors were alarmed.

One by one, powerful figures who had been in seclusion for years shattered the void and traveled from distant lands to this place.

In just a short while, seven or eight important figures, enough to shake the entire Xuanhuang Great World, gathered outside the Sword Tomb in the Desolate State.

For example, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, the son of the Great Emperor Hongyu, the Quasi-Emperor Ancestor of the Silent Divine Dynasty, and the ancient beasts of the Desolate Ancient Mountains, etc...

These great figures have existed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. In such a long period of time, there has never been a scene where so many quasi-emperors gathered together.

It's easy to imagine just how alluring the Yin-Yang Sword Lotus is.

The ordinary swordsmen outside the Sword Tomb didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Those great figures, simply by standing there, were like the might of heaven descending, suppressing the world and forcing all living beings to submit.

Even the most arrogant genius is no different from an ant in their presence.

After these important figures arrived, they did not exchange any words. Almost without hesitation, everyone flew directly into the depths of the Sword Tomb.

However, as soon as they approached, an extremely shocking scene suddenly unfolded.

Deep within the sword tomb, an ocean suddenly rose from the ground.

Looking around, it blots out the sky and blocks out the sun.

Those outside the Sword Tomb looked up at the ocean, but could not see its end at all.

It's as if the entire sky is covered by it.

However, an even more terrifying scene unfolded.

"Sword energy...that's not the ocean, but a strange phenomenon formed by the condensation of countless sword energies..."

Everyone was utterly shocked, their minds reeling.

Even though the ancient Sword Emperor has long since disappeared, the sword tomb he left behind still possesses such terrifying power even after millions of years.

Those important figures were all quasi-emperors with nine imperial markings, the closest to becoming emperors.

Even so, they were still blocked by the sea of ​​swords and could not make any progress.

At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor spoke.

"Gentlemen, block this sea of ​​swords and protect me as I retrieve the sword lotus."

"Our Heavenly Court will never keep it all for ourselves..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the quasi-emperor ancestor of the Annihilation Divine Dynasty bluntly stated:

"Xihe, aren't you being a bit too ambitious with your plans?"

"The Heavenly Court has dominated the Heavenly Realm for millions of years, taking all the benefits. Now that this elixir has finally matured, why should you be the one to go in and retrieve it?"

The Silent Extinction Divine Dynasty originated in the Middle Ages and was created by the Silent Extinction Emperor during that period. It is based in Yunzhou and resides alone in a superior grotto-heaven.

The Silent God Dynasty, also an imperial clan, did not fear the Heavenly Emperor like ordinary people. So when the Heavenly Emperor asked everyone to escort him, this quasi-emperor ancestor of the Silent God Dynasty was the first to jump out and object.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor did not argue with him, but simply smiled and slowly raised his hand.

In an instant, a terrifying imperial might poured down.

A bronze mirror appeared in his palm.

All the quasi-emperors' expressions changed drastically upon seeing the bronze mirror. Their next action was to immediately retreat, merging themselves into the void, ready to leave at any moment.

"The Great Dao Emperor Weapon, the Mirror of All Living Beings... You actually brought it out..."

"The ancestor of the Hongyu Imperial Clan, Chang Geng, exclaimed in shock."

Most of these imperial clans have Great Dao Imperial Weapons guarding them.

However, the Great Dao Emperor Weapon has long transcended the concept of the mortal world and possesses extremely strong autonomy.

Aside from the emperor who created them, even the emperor's descendants would find it extremely difficult to use them.

Unless they can persuade the Imperial Army, or the entire Imperial Clan is facing a life-or-death crisis.

Otherwise, these quasi-emperors would have no way to summon imperial troops.

The Heavenly Emperor smiled and explained:

"The Mirror of All Living Beings is a treasure of my Heavenly Court, suppressing the fortune of my Heavenly Court for millions of years. How can it be used casually?"

"This is a replica of the Mirror of All Beings, crafted by the senior Cang Sheng himself. Although it is not as powerful as an imperial weapon, it still possesses the might of an emperor and should allow me to enter the Sword Tomb smoothly."

Upon seeing this, everyone felt a heavy weight in their hearts.

The Heavenly Court's efforts were truly astonishing. Although the replica of the Mirror of All Living Beings was not a genuine imperial weapon, it possessed the same power as an imperial weapon. However, this thing was only for one use and would be destroyed after it was used.

The value of this mirror alone is no less than that of ordinary immortal medicines. Of course, compared to the Yin-Yang Sword Lotus, one of the five most top-tier immortal medicines in the Xuanhuang Great World, it is not worth mentioning.

The Heavenly Emperor, holding the False Mirror of All Living Beings, looked at the crowd and laughed:

"Gentlemen, what's your decision?"
