Terran Guardian - Chapter 3901

Chapter 3877 Qin lost its deer, and the world chased after it!

“Ultimate Yang,

Ultimate Strength!” “Exorcising Evil and Suppressing Demons!”

“The Thunder Marrow Liquid is truly extraordinary—”

Gu Qingyang gripped the hilt with his left hand, his right hand gently stroking the blade. The original murderous aura had vanished, replaced by a magnificent sword energy.

This sword energy was like the might of thunder, repelling all evil.

More importantly ,

a wisp of purple Daoist charm, previously absent, appeared on the blade.

“After being tempered by the Thunder Marrow Liquid, the power of the immortal sword has reached a new level. Although it hasn’t broken through the barrier of an Emperor Immortal Weapon and truly entered the level of a Primordial Emperor Weapon, it can still be considered a half-step Primordial Emperor Weapon!”

Gu Qingyang’s face showed satisfaction.

A half-step Primordial Emperor Weapon!

Strictly speaking, it still falls within the category of Emperor Immortal Weapons.

But compared to ordinary Emperor Immortal Weapons, this half-step Primordial Emperor Weapon is even more powerful.

Possessing a Primordial Sword Embryo Immortal Body and cultivating the Nine Heavens Myriad Tribulations Sword Scripture, these nine immortal swords are intimately connected to him.

The stronger the immortal sword, the stronger the individual’s power.

Previously, with nine immortal swords in hand, Gu Qingyang was already capable of slaying ordinary peak-level Immortal Emperors.

Now—

with all nine immortal swords having advanced to the level of half-step Innate Emperor Weapons, their power would only be greater.

But unfortunately,

Thunder Marrow Liquid can only be used once.

A supreme treasure only requires one pound of Thunder Marrow Liquid to refine.

After one refinement, further refinement is futile.

This is why Gu Qingyang only took nine pounds of

Thunder Marrow Liquid. Even if he took all of it, it wouldn’t be very meaningful.

Moreover,

many cultivators were eyeing the Thunder Marrow Liquid, and Gu Qingyang wasn’t confident he could suppress all the powerful figures and monopolize it.

Ultimately—

he was only a beginner-level Immortal Emperor, not a top-tier one.

Facing some veteran powerhouses, he was still outmatched.

“I’ve heard of Chaotic Spirit Embryos in the world, capable of transforming supreme treasures. If I could find nine Chaotic Spirit Embryos, my strength would greatly increase!”

This thought flashed through Gu Qingyang’s mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

Chaotic Spirit Embryos!

No need to think about that for now.

Such treasures are rare; even a Celestial Emperor couldn’t hope to possess them.

With this thought in mind, Gu Qingyang took a step forward and left Zhaoyao Peak.

When he reappeared, he was already outside the Cangyun Immortal Mansion.

“Disciple Gu Qingyang requests an audience with Master!”

“Come in!”

A calm voice rang out, and then the Immortal Mansion’s restrictions dissipated, revealing the Chaotic Evolution Courtyard before him. Towering ancient trees seemed capable of blocking out the sun, and beneath them sat a purple-robed Daoist, sipping tea, the refreshing fragrance filling the air.

“Master!”

Gu Qingyang slowly stepped forward, then bowed deeply.

Shen Changqing’s expression remained calm: “What brings you here today?”

“This disciple has come to seek guidance from Master on the art of weapon forging!”

“Weapon forging?”

Shen Changqing’s expression showed slight surprise.

To be honest,

Gu Qingyang’s purpose had somewhat surprised him.

“This disciple cultivates the Nine Heavens Myriad Tribulations Sword Manual, which emphasizes the integration of weapon forging into the body, complementing the nine immortal swords.

However, unless it’s a supreme treasure born of heaven and earth, immortal swords forged by others will ultimately be difficult to truly resonate with this disciple.

Therefore, this disciple wishes to seek guidance from Master on weapon forging, hoping Master will generously offer guidance!”

Having said this, Gu Qingyang bowed again.

Shen Changqing’s expression was understanding: “Since you have such a wish, I will naturally grant it!”

“This disciple thanks Master!”

Gu Qingyang was overjoyed.

There were few cultivators skilled in weapon forging to begin with, and truly top-tier weapon-forging grandmasters were even rarer.

The master before him was a true eighth-rank grandmaster who had forged an innate imperial weapon. With   his

guidance, Gu Qingyang believed he could achieve considerable success in weapon forging.   Shen Changqing didn’t waste any words and immediately began explaining weapon forging to Gu Qingyang, while also imparting his own compiled weapon-refining manual.   This manual was Shen Changqing’s reorganized legacy after breaking through to the eighth-tier Grandmaster level, representing the culmination of an eighth-tier Grandmaster’s life’s work.   Gu   Qingyang treasured it immensely.   In the following days,   Gu Qingyang traveled between Zhaoyao Peak and Cangyun Peak, constantly studying the methods of weapon refining.   Meanwhile,   Shen Changqing also discovered that Gu Qingyang possessed remarkable talent in weapon refining.   …   A year later.   As the tribulation clouds dissipated,   Gu Qingyang stepped forward, sword in hand.   Shen Changqing grasped the hilt with his right hand, examined it carefully, and nodded slightly.   ”Although it’s a low-grade Dao artifact, in terms of power, it’s among the finest low-grade Dao artifacts.”   Before Gu Qingyang could even smile, Shen Changqing’s tone shifted.   ”However…”   ”The sword’s forging technique is crude, with obvious flaws. If it weren’t for the superior materials used, it would only be considered the lowest quality among low-grade Dao artifacts.   Its inclusion in the fine category is entirely due to the abundance of top-tier materials.   To an ordinary Immortal King, this sword would be a treasure, but to an Ancient Immortal, it’s practically worthless!”   Shen Changqing’s assessment was sharp, leaving Gu Qingyang no room for embarrassment.   The latter, hearing such comments, looked ashamed.   ”This disciple has failed Master’s expectations!”   Shen Changqing shook his head, casually tossing the sword back to him, and then said indifferently.   ”I wouldn’t call it disappointment. The fact that you were able to forge a Dao artifact in three years and join the ranks of fifth-tier Grandmasters shows that your comprehension is extraordinary.   Although your cultivation at the Immortal Emperor realm has brought you many advantages, your talent in this area is still beyond doubt.”

“Next, you can devote more time to studying the Dao of Refining. If you encounter any bottlenecks, come back then, and I will help you resolve them.”

“Disciple understands, thank you Master!”

Gu Qingyang took a deep breath, bowed to Shen Changqing, and then took his leave.

Shen Changqing casually picked up his teacup and took a sip, a faint smile appearing on his calm face.

“A Grandmaster in three years!”

“Indeed, a prodigy is a prodigy no matter where he is. His exceptional comprehension is incomparable to those cultivators who rely solely on bloodline and fortuitous opportunities to stand out among their peers!” “

A true prodigy!

It’s not just about possessing a top-tier bloodline and immortal body; comprehension and Dao heart are also indispensable.

Only those with all three can be called top-tier prodigies.

Otherwise,

they are merely a flash in the pan, unable to reach the end.

Gu Qingyang’s talent is beyond question; he was able to reach this level in less than 20 million years, solely relying on his innate immortal body.

His comprehension and Dao heart are equally top-notch.

Therefore,

Gu Qingyang went from nothing to reaching the level of a Grandmaster of Weapon Refining in three years.

Judging from his level, even breaking through to the sixth or even seventh rank Grandmaster shouldn’t take too long.

However—

this time is

relatively short.

Subsequently,

Shen Changqing’s divine sense landed on the Demon God Dao Mirror.

Now that he has returned to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, the role of the Xingdao Alliance has been brought to its fullest extent.

News from various immortal states all came from the Demon God Dao Mirror and ultimately fell into Shen Changqing’s hands.

“In the ancient Immortal Realm war, many powerful figures in the Southern Yuan Dao State perished, and many immortal domains are in chaos.”

Other immortal states are stirring with ambition, seemingly intent on joining forces to annihilate Nan Yuan Dao State.

If this battle were to erupt, its impact would likely be even greater than the previous siege of Shen Feng State by various immortal states!

Shen Changqing’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Shen Feng State, in the end, was merely an ordinary immortal state among the three thousand six hundred immortal states, naturally incomparable to Nan Yuan Dao State.

The latter was one of the four ancient immortal states, and one of the most prestigious immortal states in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Such an immortal state not only possessed formidable strength, but also unimaginable cultivation resources.

In the past, when Nan Yuan Dao State was at its peak, other immortal states dared not act rashly, but now that Nan Yuan Dao State’s strength had been greatly diminished, the situation was different.

“When Qin lost its deer, the world scrambled for it!” “

This thought flashed through Shen Changqing’s mind.

Strength!

That’s the greatest power in Nanyuan Daozhou!

Now that Nanyuan Daozhou’s strength has been greatly diminished, how is it any different from the Great Qin of his previous life?

Even if the other immortal states haven’t made a move yet, this war will inevitably break out soon.

This is not a bad opportunity for the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

After all,

Nanyuan Daozhou has a strong foundation. If the Seven Profound Dao Sect can get a taste of its strength, it will be enough to greatly enhance its power.

In addition, Dongming Immortal State, as the party that took the initiative, is naturally much safer. If

they can’t win,

they can simply retreat to Dongming Immortal State.

No matter how you look at it, attacking Nanyuan Daozhou is not a loss.

But despite this, Shen Changqing didn’t… ” There was no need for haste.

Although the Seven Profound Dao Sect wasn’t among the lowest-ranking forces in the Eastern Bright Immortal Continent, its strength wasn’t particularly formidable either. There were countless forces far stronger than the Seven Profound Dao Sect. Since

the top forces hadn’t yet made their move, Shen Changqing had no incentive to rush. The

first bird to stick its head out gets shot!

The Seven Profound Dao Sect naturally had no need to be the first to stick its head out. They   would wait patiently for

the right opportunity.   Shen Changqing wasn’t in a hurry; he had already used the Demon God’s Mirror to order all the acquired demon gods from other immortal continents to rush to the Southern Yuan Dao Continent to secretly gather intelligence.   In this way, any news from the Southern Yuan Dao Continent would inevitably be revealed to him.   It wouldn’t be too late for the Seven Profound Dao Sect to make its plans after the other forces had taken action.   …   In the time that followed,   Shen Changqing remained secluded in the Cangyun Immortal Mansion, quietly nurturing the Twelve Heavens while also comprehending the Daoist essence of the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell.   Creation treasures are born from the collective creation of heaven and earth, representing a manifestation of the Great Dao.   Therefore,   comprehending the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell is no different from truly comprehending the Great Dao.   More importantly,   now that he wielded the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell, comprehending the Daoist essence of such a supreme treasure was far easier than directly comprehending the Great Dao.   Within the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell, Shen Changqing saw the magnificent Great Dao.   The True Martial Dao he himself cultivated… Even the Dao seems insignificant before such a Great Dao.   It’s not that the True Martial Dao is inherently inferior to the Great Dao of the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell, but rather that they are on different levels.   If the True Martial Dao is cultivated to a high level, it is naturally no weaker than other Great Daos.   However, the problem is that   Shen Changqing is currently only at the Immortal Emperor realm. No matter how strong his True Martial Dao is, he has ultimately not yet crossed the threshold of immortality and ascended to a true Great Dao of Immortality.   Furthermore, the Boundary-Stabilizing Bell is a treasure of creation; the power of the Great Dao contained in such a treasure is at least comparable to the Great Dao of a Saint. Therefore, the difference between the two is obvious.
