Chen Ye couldn’t help but laugh and cry, and gently patted her soft little buttock again:
"Wishful thinking! Alright, get down and play by yourself."
"Humph!"
Qing Jun slid down from his embrace, rubbed her eyes, and although she was no longer crying, her little mouth was still pouting.
She glanced at Zhiwei’s tightly closed door and muttered, "Senior Sister doesn’t even know what she’s up to, started training as soon as she got a treasure, didn’t even let me take a look..."
Chen Ye ignored her murmuring, but was deep in thought.
Since returning, Zhiwei went into seclusion immediately, saying she wanted to communicate with the Heart Slaughter Sword.
Before closing off, she briefly told Chen Ye about the events in Heart Slaughter Cave.
Chen Ye roughly understood.
Contrary to what he had thought, the Heart Slaughter Sword was actually not suitable for Zhiwei.
"Forget it... I originally wanted to give my disciple the Heart Slaughter Inheritance. But this Gourd Sword seems more suitable for her? That Heart Slaughter Sword Master back then was a rare Spirit Body with Ten Complete Attributes. This Spirit Body with Ten Complete Attributes is somewhat similar to the Purity Glaze Body, with all Spiritual Roots, and its cultivation speed doesn’t decrease."
"However, the Purity Glaze Body is not just about having all Spiritual Roots. This Spirit Body with Ten Complete Attributes can barely be considered one-tenth as extraordinary as the Purity Glaze Body."
As for the seven-colored Gourd Sword, it perfectly matches the characteristics of the Spirit Body with Ten Complete Attributes, each Gourd Sword has an attribute different from the others.
In other words, it is also suitable for Zhiwei.
"The Heart Slaughter Sword is only the Divine Soul Inheritance of the Heart Slaughter Sword Master, while the Gourd Sword is the Flying Sword Inheritance. It’s divided into the Sacrificial Gourd Technique and the Great Evolution Wind Thunder Sword Formation, and since Zhiwei had studied the Cyan Wave Sword Control Technique, she can just switch to the Great Evolution Wind Thunder Sword Formation."
The Heart Slaughter Cave is a classic instance from the original game.
Chen Ye was certainly not unfamiliar with it.
Just thinking of this, Zhiwei’s room door creaked open.
The eldest disciple had a slightly pale face, but her eyes were bright, with occasional glints of light fragmenting across them.
The most eye-catching thing was the three delicate gourds hanging at her slender waist.
One was vibrant green, full of vitality; another was fiery red, exuding a faint heat; and the last one was deep blue, flowing with the cool aura of water.
These were the three Gourd Swords!
"Senior Sister!" Qing Jun’s eyes lit up, and she curiously circled around Zhiwei, "Are these the three broken gourds? Hey, why have they shrunk? Can I play with them?"
She was already secretly grinding her teeth.
Those stinky gourds had looked down on her before, now that they had fallen into her hands, she would teach them a good lesson!
Zhiwei smiled slightly, unclasped the gourds, and handed them to Qing Jun.
The little girl was initially excited, but as she received the gourds, she realized something was wrong.
These gourds did not respond to her approach at all, as if they were lifeless!
"Eh... why aren’t they talking?"
Qing Jun frowned. Bullying something without a mind, what’s the fun in that?
Zhiwei explained: "The Heart Slaughter Cave was the final resting place of the former sword master. These Flying Swords were protected by his residual influence, thus retaining their spirituality. But having fallen to the level of magical treasure, out of the Grotto Heaven they enter a self-protective state of dormancy... I’ll have to wait until I break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage to restore some spirituality."
The seven-colored Gourd Swords had fallen to Second Tier Top Grade, and naturally, outside the Heart Slaughter Cave, they lost their spirituality.
Qing Jun, greatly disappointed, returned the three gourds to her senior sister without interest.
However, she had just examined the three gourds closely and discovered that inside each gourd, there was a small Flying Sword.
This finally cleared the doubt in her mind.
She was initially puzzled, wondering why these were called Flying Swords when they were clearly gourds?
It turned out the Flying Swords were inside the gourds...
Zhiwei no longer paid attention to the distressed little girl and walked straight to Chen Ye, giving a slight bow, "Master."
Chen Ye scrutinized her, noticing significant advancement in her Divine Soul power: "Finished communicating?"
Zhiwei nodded, her expression somewhat complex: "I’ve obtained four Cultivation Techniques. They are the Seven Luminaries Soul Nourishing Technique, the Heart Slaughter Sword Technique, the Great Evolution Wind Thunder Sword Formation, and the Sacrificial Gourd Technique... Additionally, the Great Evolution Wind Thunder Sword Formation and Sacrificial Gourd Technique must be executed using the Gourd Swords."
This harvest exceeded her expectations.
However, she was aware of this Seven Luminaries Soul Nourishing Technique.
Her master cultivated it as well, and in recent days, in Calm Hall, Qing Jun also received this technique from the Mao Family.
"Hmm..." Chen Ye nodded; the outcome was within his expectations.
Zhiwei indeed lived up to being the Daughter of Destiny; the Heart Slaughter Sword had a high regard for her.
If it weren’t for Zhiwei having the Purity Glaze Body, subduing this sword would be an effortless task.
"Moreover, the Heart Slaughter Sword wishes to meet Master," Zhiwei pointed to her brow, where a faint silver gleam flickered, faintly revealing a sharp Sword Intent.
It’s here!
Chen Ye felt a stir inside, pondering secretly.
This Third Tier Spiritual Artifact possesses spirituality, and its criteria for choosing a master are undoubtedly stringent.
However, in the end, it’s just a Flying Sword.
It wouldn’t have the snobbish eye for dismissing someone, like the disciples of other large families, disdaining his background as a Loose Cultivator...
Chen Ye nodded, "If that’s the case, let me meet it then."
Zhiwei sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and the pinpoint silver gleam on her brow suddenly brightened.
A Sword Intent, seemingly capable of annihilating all illusions, slowly permeated the air.
"Buzz—"
A long sword phantom, as if congealed from moonlight, emerged from Zhiwei’s brow, hovering mid-air.
As soon as the Heart Slaughter Sword appeared, it couldn’t wait to transform into a streak of light, directly plunging into Chen Ye’s brow!
Chen Ye suddenly felt cold between his brows, as if a thorn was constantly hovering there.
Through internal vision, he saw the Heart Slaughter Sword now suspended above Saturn.
"This... so straightforward?"
Chen Ye was dumbfounded.
Wasn’t there supposed to be communication, some sort of exchange?
Why did it feel like it had just come home...
Then, the next moment, the Heart Slaughter Sword began to tremble violently, desperately devouring Chen Ye’s Spiritual Power and Divine Soul power!
Like a glutton that had been starved for a thousand years, finally finding food, desperately trying to fill its void.
