Chapter 520



Although Lin Xun coveted such a treasure and envied Zhao Jingxuan, he also knew that the treasure clashed with his own way and was not suitable for him.

Clang!

Suddenly, Lin Xun brought out a jet-black broken blade and applied force to his palm. The blade erupted with dazzling starlight as if a fierce and malicious spirit had awakened inside it.

Rumble—

As though provoked, the Nine Dragons Cauldron cast out images of nine dragons from its body. Each one threw its head skywards as it roared and produced a power that could shake the universe.

The two divine weapons seemed to be competing. The cauldron and blade were attempting to oppress each other. Starlight swept the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower like a mighty sea, and dragon roars shook the tower like claps of thunder.

Lin Xun watched the rare clash with unblinking eyes.

Boom!

The broken blade seemed enraged that it failed to do anything about the Nine Dragons Cauldron as it suddenly erupted in a blaze of terrifying starlight and crushed everything in all directions.

All of a sudden, there seemed to be millions of stars spreading across and suppressing the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

On the other hand, the Nine Dragons Cauldron was overflowing with immeasurable imperial power. Nine dragons soared into the air, tearing the universe as it fended off the sea of stars.

Seeing the conflict intensifying and the violent competition about to drown the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower, Lin Xun stepped in without hesitation, ending the conflict.

The broken blade let out an unwilling grunt as it tried to wrestle free from Lin Xun’s grip. It hated the fact that it couldn’t charge out and slash the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

The blade’s extraordinary spiritual intelligence attracted Xia Zhi’s attention from afar. Her clear, black jewel-like eyes narrowed.

At the same time, the Nine Dragons Cauldron buzzed and released a dragon roar. Lin Xun, the creator, also couldn’t help but marvel at its spiritual intelligence. The treasure is indeed worthy of being a treasure of the imperial way. It is completely different from other rune armaments.

However, what surprised Lin Xun more was the broken blade, which he had obtained from the Treasure Drop Blood Plain of the Ancient Spirit World. It had a mysterious origin, but its frightening power unquestionably defies heaven.

The first time that Lin Xun laid eyes on the blade, it had slaughtered several cultivators and drove Heaven Ascension experts to flee in embarrassment.

This was done without the control or manipulation of anyone. That alone showed that the broken blade had an incredibly strong spiritual intelligence.

A while ago, Lin Xun also put the broken blade against the Shattered Tragedy Spear, and the result greatly surprised him. Even the Shattered Tragedy Spear, which possessed terrifying destructive power, failed to shake or subdue the blade!

Lin Xun finally came to a clear conclusion after comparing the blade with the Nine Dragons Cauldron—

The broken blade that had survived since ancient times was in no way inferior to any other rune armament in terms of power and spiritual intelligence.

Its only flaw was, perhaps, that it was just an ancient treasure and couldn’t be transformed into armor to assist a cultivator.

But then again, it was only a broken blade. It was incomplete yet it stood its ground against the Shattered Tragedy Spear and the Nine Dragons Cauldron. Imaginably, it would be even more terrifying if it was undamaged.

“I must find an opportunity to repair the blade in the future…” Lin Xun said resolutely.

Although he already possessed the skills and abilities of a rune founder, he still couldn’t fathom the mystery of the blade or couldn’t identify the materials that made up it. Everything about the broken blade was very mysterious.

He looked forward to the day that he could repair the broken blade!

“Lin Xun, where did you get that ancient treasure? I sense the aura of ancient times from it. Judging from that, it must have been in this world for at least a hundred thousand years,” Xia Zhi suddenly said aloud. She went over to Lin Xun and lifted her face as she spoke.

Only when there were no outsiders around would she reveal her perfect face concealed under the hood of her cloak.

That was done after Lin Xun had suggested it because she was too flawlessly beautiful. Her skin was fair and almost translucent, and her facial features were too delicate and perfect like the masterpiece of God. Her captivating face could make everything in the world dim!

If she didn’t conceal her unparalleled beauty, it could bring her disturbances and disasters. This was not an exaggeration as beautiful women were said to cause the downfall of a country since ancient times. Xia Zhi was still young, but who knew what kind of peerless beauty she would become when she grew up?

“A hundred thousand years?”

Lin Xun stared at her blankly and then he said in surprise, ”You...can you also tell?”

Xia Zhi nodded while her eyes were still fixed on the broken blade in Lin Xun’s hand. “I can feel that it is a very terrifying treasure. You wouldn’t be able to control it if it wasn’t broken.”

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips twitched. Is she commenting on the broken blade’s amazing power or is she trying to attack me for my weakness?

Clang!

Suddenly, Xia Zhi raised her hand and summoned a twelve-foot-long bone spear. An excited look flickered across her clear eyes as she said, “Lin Xun, I want to test the broken blade.”

The sparkling white spear had been with Xia Zhi ever since Lin Xun met her, and only she was able to mobilize it. It was as though it was a part of her.

“No.”

Lin Xun downright refused and quickly put away the broken blade. “They are both amazing treasures! What if one of them gets damaged?”

Xia Zhi rolled her eyes, which she seldom did. “So petty.”

Lin Xun laughed. “Do you want me to help you make another weapon?”

Xia Zhu unhesitatingly declined. “No need.”

She put away the spear, walked to the corner by herself and lay on the little bed. As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell asleep.

It was Xia Zhi’s nap time again. Not even a rumble of thunder would wake her up.

Lin Xun stepped forward and quietly watched her sleep. Even though they saw each other all the time, he couldn’t help but be captivated by her tranquil and stunning face.

Her beauty did not belong in the world. She was so perfect that she felt unreal and could turn the world upside down.

After a long moment, Lin Xun smiled, lifted Xia Zhi, gently covered her little face with the brim of her hood and left the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower.

He had successfully crafted the Nine Dragons Cauldron after two months, and it was time to leave.

Lin Xun already had a plan in mind. After he handed the Nine Dragons Cauldron to Zhao Jingxuan, he planned to focus on his training and make preparations for attacking the Heaven Ascension Stage.

A few months ago, he had already reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Sea Stage, and his cultivation base, spirit and physique were tempered to a perfect state. He had reached the limit of his foundation and potential.

In other words, if he wanted to, he could ascend into the Heaven Ascension Stage at any time!

However, through a lucky coincidence, Lin Xun had comprehended a trace of water imago power from Sky Stairs Mountain!

It made him feel a sense of incompleteness, so he chose to not break through.

In his view, his cultivation, spirit and physique had indeed reached the limit of perfection, but the addition of water imago power changed his power in the Spirit Sea Stage. Although it made him stronger, it also made his cultivation in the Spirit Sea Stage incomplete.

Perhaps, he would only achieve true completeness and perfection when he could manipulate the trace of water imago power!

Other cultivators would become crazy if they learned about his plan.

Any other Spirit Sea cultivators would wish to break through to the Heaven Ascension Stage as soon as possible, but Lin Xun wanted to wait until his cultivation, Spirit and physique had been tempered to the limit.

Now, he wanted to perfectly control the trace of water imago power before he broke through to the Heaven Ascension Stage. How would other people not be shocked?

The most unbelievable thing was that, among all Spirit Sea cultivators in the world, no one else had been able to comprehend let alone control the imago power of the great Dao before they reached the Heaven Ascension Stage!

Lin Xun had broken past conventions and created a new miracle. It would cause a sensation if it spread out.

Of course, at present, only Lin Xun knew about it. It was a secret that belonged to him alone.

……

Lin Xun didn’t notify anyone that he was leaving the Refinement Tower but, to his surprise, Zhao Tailai was already waiting for him outside.

It turned out that Zhao Tailai had come a few days ago and hadn’t left since.

He was waiting for good news from Lin Xun.

When Lin Xun tossed the sealed box with the Nine Dragons Cauldron inside to Zhao Tailai, his breathing stopped for a moment.

He succeeded!

Although he had confidence in Lin Xun, he was still filled with indescribable shock and excitement when he learned that the young rune founder had succeeded in crafting the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

For thousands of years, a treasure that many runemasters had been unable to create had finally been born in the world. How could Zhao Tailai not tremble with excitement?

If the outside world learned that Lin Xun had crafted a second rune armament only two months after his first, what sort of storm would it set off again?

Of course, neither Lin Xun nor Zhao Tailai would disclose the matter. The Nine Dragons Cauldron was an important weapon of the imperial family and shouldn’t be leaked otherwise everyone would covet it.

“Good! Very Good!” Zhao Tailai exclaimed and danced with joy, his chubby cheeks bouncing up and down.

He clapped Lin Xun on the shoulder. “Kid, you have done a great job this time!”

“Then, do you think I should receive an extra reward?” Lin Xun asked with a smile.

Zhao Tailai immediately put his guard up. He cleared his throat and said, “Don’t worry, the imperial family will remember your favor! Okay, that’s all, I’ll head back now. Maybe Her Highness Princess Jingxuan will come to thank you in person later.”

Before his voice faded, he already darted away in a cloud of dust.

Lin Xun stood there speechless for a while. That fatty is so cunning. It’s more difficult to take advantage of him than to ascend to the sky.
