“Master, I have something to report.”

When Di Nvfeng returned from the Lonely Peak, she saw Chu Liang waiting for her in the hall of the loft with a serious expression.

She immediately showed an excited expression, “What? Have you been beaten up again?”

“…” Even if I was beaten up, you don’t have to be so happy about it, Chu Liang couldn’t help but grumble inwardly.

She seemed to be taking pleasure in his misfortune.

Of course, he understood why Di Nvfeng was like this. It was because his previous experiences of being bullied had led her to the concept that her disciple “getting beaten up” equaled “making a profit”.

She had been beating people for decades and had always been losing money. It was only recently that she discovered that she could make money while beating people. And all of this was thanks to Chu Liang’s appearance.

I’m sorry, Master, I didn’t get bullied this time, I’m sorry to disappoint you…

“The Soul Summoning Order from the Underworld Sect has sent another message. The South Road Summoner is gathering his subordinates and wants to assemble outside the Zhen Nan Domain Mountain within seven days. It seems they have some plans,” Chu Liang said.

“Hmm?” Di Nvfeng frowned, “The South Road Summoner? He’s just a small fry…”

Hearing her disdainful tone, Chu Liang looked innocent. The small fry in your eyes, Master, could easily kill me.

So he voiced his thoughts, “I believe that the Underworld Sect, especially the Purple Gold Marquis, is currently lying low. And his subordinate, the South Road Summoner, is making a big fuss, blatantly gathering forces to enter the Zhen Nan Domain Mountain. There must be a very important target. If we can capture these Underworld Sect members and their target, it would be a great achievement…”

“Moreover, if we can capture the South Road Summoner, we might be able to find out the location of the Purple Gold Marquis,” Chu Liang added.

“Hmm…” Di Nvfeng nodded thoughtfully, she naturally understood her disciple’s situation.

Chu Liang had infiltrated the Soul Summoners, and once he made a move, he would definitely be exposed, so the opportunity to be an undercover agent was basically only once. If he didn’t participate in the operation, it would definitely arouse suspicion, and he could only end his undercover operation early.

“If we can’t catch the big turtle, catching a couple of small shrimps is also fine,” Di Nvfeng tilted her head and said helplessly.

After saying that, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, “Eh? Anyway, anyone can use the Soul Summoning Order now. Why don’t I infiltrate and go undercover, so you don’t have to risk your life?”

Hearing her say this, Chu Liang was somewhat moved. At least his master was considering his safety. But thinking about Di Nvfeng disguised as a small minion of the demonic sect…

The Soul Summoner, being at the bottom of the operation, might be ordered around at will. If someone dared to be a little fierce to Di Nvfeng, she would probably punch them to death, startling the snake in the grass was almost inevitable, let alone ending the undercover operation.

“Let’s not do that, to be an undercover agent, you need to have…” Chu Liang almost blurted out, to be an undercover agent, you need to have brains.

“What?” Di Nvfeng glared, seeming extremely sensitive to this sentence.

Fortunately, Chu Liang’s words were pulled back by his rationality, and he said instead, “You need to have the ability to disguise, and Master, your brilliance is like a firefly in the dark, so bright and outstanding, it’s obvious that you don’t fit in with those demonic sect people, how could you infiltrate them?”

“That makes sense, hehe.” Di Nvfeng’s mouth curled up in a smile, “Then I’ll just follow you to the outskirts of Zhen Nan Domain Mountain. You take the following talisman with you, so I can locate you. If anything happens, crush the following jade talisman immediately, and I’ll come to rescue you!”

“That would be great.” Chu Liang nodded.

“Also…” Di Nvfeng’s eyes shifted, looking into the distance, “You must take good care of that Dustless Sword, no matter what happens, you can’t lose it.”

“Of course, I will take good care of the treasure sword given by Master,” Chu Liang replied, but he was a little puzzled as to why Di Nvfeng would suddenly say this.

After thinking about it, he still felt that something was off about Di Nvfeng, so he asked, “Is there anything special about this sword?”

Di Nvfeng suddenly recited two lines of poetry.

“The divine light at the top of the sky divides into nine colors, the heavenly gate above the clouds opens in order.” She seemed to be muttering to herself, or talking to someone, but definitely not to Chu Liang, “If I’m not mistaken, the key is this, right?”

“Huh?” Chu Liang expressed his surprise as he saw her seemingly lost in some memories.

When did even Master start to speak in riddles? Is something wrong?

…

After leaving the small loft, Chu Liang came to the hillside and took out the Dustless Sword.

Ever since he returned from Glutton City, he never dared to show this sword in public. Only in the dead of night would he dare to take it out from his storage artifact, touching and wiping it carefully with a heart full of excitement and cherishment… just like a rich landlord who had locked a pile of gold and silver in his cellar…

He understood the principle of not showing off wealth too well, especially considering his current strength, he was not quite worthy of this sword. If he flaunted it like Master did with the Phoenix Spirit Blood Jade, he would probably encounter robbers as soon as he left Shu Mountain.

The sword, clear and transparent, seemed invisible under the moonlight, with only the golden mist swirling within revealing its sharp edge. Whenever true qi was infused into it, the golden mist would rapidly spread, filling the entire sword with a golden glow.

With a casual swing of his sword, Chu Liang released a white-gold sword qi that swiftly flew out of the sword, hissing—

This sword was as sharp as a whip, incredibly fierce!

In terms of power, it was not much inferior to the Wind Thunder Sword that Fang Ting had swung in the forest of the Southern Territory Mountain! It should be known that Fang Ting was a fourth realm cultivator with a superior Shenxiao Five Thunder Golden Elixir, and the sword technique he used was his forte!

Was this the power of a sword close to divine?

Of course, Chu Liang’s cultivation alone would not be enough to achieve this.

Ordinary iron had a delay when it came to true qi. If a common iron sword was used, perhaps only seven-tenths of the true qi could be emitted through the sword tip, while the standard flying sword of Shu Mountain could emit nine-tenths. To be able to fully emit ten-tenths was already considered a treasure sword, just like those treasure swords that were previously sold in the Sword Hall.

And the famous swords passed down through generations could enhance the sword qi, allowing ten-tenths of true qi to exert twelve-tenths or even more power. Chu Liang felt that the Dustless Sword in his hand could amplify his true qi to fifteen-tenths, and also add special effects.

Yes, just like Di Nvfeng’s Phoenix Spirit Blood Jade. A divine sword that could break into the top hundred naturally needed special effects.

The special effect of this Dustless Sword was reflected in the trace of Dao charm mixed into the sword qi. According to his master’s words to Xu Kunwu, it was the Cloud Dao charm that was integrated into the sword when the ancient Xiaoyun sword was forged, named “Cloud Decision”.

This was also the Dao that Yan Daoist, who had been practicing in Shu Mountain for many years, mainly cultivated.

The Dao of Cloud Decision was about soaring above the nine heavens, a sword technique that cut through the clouds, with a vast and resolute sword intent.

Yan Daoist had been unknown for many years of cultivation in Shu Mountain. Her fame came from a battle where she swung a sword technique called “Sky-Piercing Sword” on the Bi Luo Peak, killing a demon thousands of miles away, shocking the nine provinces!

Since then, even the head of the Endless Sword Sect had said that if there was someone in the world who could surpass him in the path of the sword, it would definitely be Yan Daoist of Shu Mountain.

The strength of the “Cloud Decision” Dao was evident.

Chu Liang had once asked out of curiosity which Dao Di Nvfeng, his master, mainly cultivated. Di Nvfeng answered that she cultivated the “Burning Sky”, which emphasized the fire virtue shining on the world and burning all living beings, a Dao full of heat and destruction.

After hearing this, Chu Liang felt that it was no wonder she could cultivate it with her wisdom. It was tailor-made for her.

Now it seemed that every seventh realm powerhouse’s main Dao had more or less connection with them. Perhaps this was one of the keys to stepping into the Heavenly Gate?

Choosing a Dao that fits oneself as much as possible, or choosing a certain Dao to play?

Of course, this was not something Chu Liang needed to consider at the moment. He was still just a handsome guy who needed to worry about resources for forming his Golden Elixir.

However.

Holding the Dustless Sword, Chu Liang’s confidence was sky-high.

He was confident that although he was still in the Divine Intent Realm, he might even be considered the number one in the Divine Intent Realm in the Nine Provinces!

After all, with a divine sword in hand, coupled with the continuous supply of true qi from the big-headed doll, his strength and endurance far exceeded those of the same realm.

Even if he were to face a weaker Golden Elixir Realm, he felt that he should be able to try to challenge across realms… The requirements for challenging across realms were indeed difficult, but he should meet all the conditions.

In the moonlight, he raised his finger and shouted, “Rise!”

The Dustless Sword rose into the air, drawing a golden glow in the sky, and then dashed out! Hiss—

Wind Fire Dual Talisman Sword!

The talisman sword technique performed with the Dustless Sword should be considered Chu Liang’s strongest attack at present. Under the enhancement of the white-gold Cloud Decision Sword Qi, the sword technique hit the mountain wall, making a loud noise!

Boom—

A large section of the mountain wall was shattered by this sword!

“Hahaha…”

Feeling the powerful strength he possessed, Chu Liang was filled with pride. He laughed three times at the moon, feeling that the heroes of the world were nothing more than this. He immediately decided to take his sword down the mountain to challenge a strong enemy tomorrow…

Black furball!
