Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 290 The Yun Family Sisters

"This time I'm not human."

Looking at Yun Miaozhen and Yun Miaoqing who were so close at hand, Lü Yang frowned and scanned himself with his divine sense, quickly seeing his current appearance.

He is a sword.

The sword is simple and unadorned, engraved with a large number of seal characters, but they have no practical significance and seem to be just decorations. There are even serrated notches.

Without a doubt, this was just an ordinary sword blank. Yet, this very blank instantly attracted the attention of Yun Miaozhen and Yun Miaoqing. This wasn't due to any hidden spiritual power; the sword's material and mystique remained unchanged. What truly made it different was—

"it's me!"

Lu Yang withdrew his divine sense and finally understood his own situation: "Because I was born from this sword embryo as a celestial spirit, it is different."

"I wasn't even born yet."

Immortal spirits are not formed in a single cluster; they often require a long period of nurturing, which is also the time during which the immortal spirit develops its own consciousness.

"However, my situation is special. As a celestial being, I developed self-awareness long ago, but I haven't reached the point where I can be born into the world. This is probably a unique situation that is unprecedented for celestial beings. Perhaps I can artificially increase my foundation before being born into the world!"

Immortals are born with a foundation in cultivation.

However, there are so many levels of Foundation Establishment, and most immortal spirits are only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. The stronger one's foundation is before being born, the stronger one's foundation will be.

The strongest immortal spirits are even born at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

In this situation, one could be born with a silver spoon in their mouth, and if they're lucky enough to succeed, they'd be a born true immortal! I just don't know if such a celestial being has ever appeared.

"After all, those kinds of immortals are probably only the kind of treatment one can receive if they saved the world in their previous life."

To be born with a perfect Foundation Establishment stage—that requires immense foundation and fortune. And to remain undetected by other cultivators during the nurturing process is simply a pipe dream.

'Thank goodness, I have a cheat code!'

Compared to ordinary immortal spirits, Lü Yang also has a dharma body that can move freely, and with the blessing of the tribulation wave, he is not truly without any combat power.

"Although I don't have to choose my cultivation level after the restart, I'm only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and I'm the weakest one at that. I don't even have my own innate divine ability. However, with this cultivation level to support the [Qian Tian Zong She Wan Xiang Fa Shen] and with the [Li Jie Bo] added, I should be unmatched at the early stage of Foundation Establishment."

Unless someone else also possesses a semi-true treasure like him and has cultivated a second-grade true skill.

However, if he were to encounter such a prodigy, he could simply keep his distance and not provoke him, since he, Lü Yang, was not the kind of person who was prone to violence.

"At least with this Dharma body, I can definitely find resources to nourish myself."

Just as Lü Yang was pondering this, on the other side...

"Sister, why don't we try out this sword prototype?"

Yun Miaoqing pointed to the sword blank that Lü Yang had placed there and whispered, "I feel that this sword blank is very good. After it is forged well in the future, it may be used to make a flying sword."

As a Qi Refining disciple of the Sword Pavilion and a direct descendant of the Yun family, a Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan, she and her sister Yun Miaozhen came to the Hidden Sword Manor to select suitable sword embryos to prepare for future cultivation of flying sword techniques. This is a privilege that many ordinary disciples cannot obtain.

"It is indeed a fine sword blank."

In response to her younger sister Yun Miaoqing's question, Yun Miaozhen nodded calmly: "However, when choosing a sword embryo, we also need to consider whether the two are compatible."

"In other words, it depends on one's fortune."

"I'll go first."

After saying that, Yun Miaozhen took a step forward and walked up to Lü Yang. Yun Miaoqing was not surprised to see this, after all, she was already used to it.

After all, her older sister was more talented than her, and it was said that in her previous life she was a disciple of a Foundation Establishment True Person in the sect. She had once cultivated to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, but unfortunately failed to break through to Foundation Establishment and was forced to reincarnate. Although she no longer had memories of her previous life, her roots were still there, and that Foundation Establishment True Person was still there.

Compared to them, I am far inferior.

So she had long been used to giving many things to her older sister, and was even very proud to have such a powerful and influential older sister.

“Got it!” Standing in front of Lü Yang, Yun Miaozhen made a hand seal, a drop of blood seeping from her fingertips, which she then flicked onto Lü Yang.

Lu Yang immediately felt a strange force enter the sword.

"This is... a blood sacrifice technique?"

Lu Yang shook his head. Clearly, Yun Miaozhen had no intention of assessing his fortune or compatibility; instead, she planned to forcibly refine him using her own essence and magical power.

"That's the familiar style of the Sword Pavilion."

Lu Yang never treated those who lusted after his body well. With a thought, he directly refined Yun Miaozhen's essence blood.

The next second, Yun Miaozhen's face paled slightly.

'How could this be!?'

The Yun family's favored daughter looked at Lü Yang with her delicate brows furrowed, somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the quality of this sword prototype was even higher than she had imagined?

It's not something a Qi Refining disciple can refine.

Thinking of this, Yun Miaozhen shook her head and looked at Yun Miaoqing: "It seems that we are not fortunate enough. This sword embryo is waiting for a more suitable sword master."

Yun Miaozhen didn't feel there was anything wrong with her using the blood sacrifice technique to refine the sword embryo. The blood sacrifice technique was passed down to her by her master, it was her foundation, and part of her good fortune. In comparison, Yun Miaoqing had nothing, so naturally her good fortune was not as good as hers.

"Oh, I see. That's such a pity."

Seeing this, Yun Miaoqing shook her head and touched Lü Yang's sword with some reluctance. The sword was so big, and she actually quite liked it.
"Qiang Qiang!"

The next second, a scene that made Yun Miaozhen's pupils shrink drastically appeared:

The sword embryo that she had been helpless against suddenly trembled violently under her sister Yun Miaoqing's caresses, and burst out with dazzling sword light!
Immediately afterwards, the sword blank was inserted into Yun Miaoqing's body!
"what--!"

Yun Miaoqing was completely unprepared. As the sword pierced her body, a feeling of perfect harmony and unity of mind and body suddenly swept over her.

After the sword light faded, the sword embryo had disappeared.

Only Yun Miaoqing, looking completely bewildered, and Yun Miaozhen, with a stiff expression and lingering disbelief, remained. The two sisters stared at each other in disbelief.

"Sister, what is this?"

Yun Miaoqing said timidly, not daring to say it aloud, because no matter how you looked at it, it seemed as if she had received this blessing, while her sister had not.
Yun Miaoqing was hesitant to admit it, but subtly, she felt a bit of pleasure.

However, Yun Miaozhen quickly took a deep breath and regained her composure: "It seems that this sword embryo is your destiny. Keep it safe and don't waste it."

"Ok!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Miaoqing immediately smiled. This was the first time she had beaten her sister and obtained something her sister couldn't have, so she couldn't help but feel excited.

However, she didn't see that as she turned her back, her older sister Yun Miaozhen revealed a somewhat gloomy expression.

'The sword merged into my body, and it spontaneously responded—it was a spiritual sword embryo!'

'If I were to ask my master to refine this spiritual embryo into a flying sword, it would likely become a spiritual treasure, perhaps even enough for me to use until I reach the Foundation Establishment stage!'

'Why did I choose Miaoqing? Is it truly because my fortune is not as good as hers?'

'impossible! ’

Thinking this through, Yun Miaozhen immediately changed her mind: 'To have the sword recognize its master is not a blessing; the real blessing is to have the ability to protect it!'

With this in mind, Yun Miaozhen immediately made up her mind.

Meanwhile, Lü Yang remained within Yun Miaoqing's dantian, exchanging qi with hers. He smiled with satisfaction and then began circulating his cultivation technique.
