In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 68 Tai Bai Tian Ji: Oh no! There's a cow!
No way! I think giving money is a good thing!
Su Yuan was delighted when he heard that Master Taibai wanted to repay him, but when he heard that the other party was not going to give him money, Su Yuan was heartbroken.

Su Yuan, Su Yuan, why are you speaking such blunt truths? Wouldn't it be better to play the victim?

However, Tai Baiji's next words made Su Yuan change his mind again.

Then, after a moment's thought, the True Man Taibai said:
“I have nothing of value except for my love of swordsmanship, so I have three hundred swords in my possession.”

"You are my future student, and you will definitely be learning kendo from me for a while, so I will choose a sword for you."

Su Yuan's eyes lit up immediately.

A flying sword! It's a flying sword!

Having lived two lives, Su Yuan has always harbored a dream of flying swords.

Unfortunately, because he was too poor in his life, apart from test driving Chu Lanxi's limited edition flying sword a few times, he could only fly around using the shared flying sword.

A decent flying sword would cost at least several hundred thousand, and a flying sword that could be collected by Master Taibai would obviously cost at least a million!
Isn't this much better than just giving money directly?

Su Yuan quickly stood up and said somewhat shyly:

"Master Taibai, your sword is too valuable, isn't that a bit inappropriate... So where is your sword pavilion?"

Seeing Su Yuan's coy and reluctant expression, Master Taibai finally felt a little better.

This brat isn't invincible, he's just a money-grubbing punk.

Hmph, I don't know what my daughter sees in this boy, that she's so attached to him.

Of course, although that's what he thought in his heart, Master Taibai maintained a warm smile on his face and said calmly:
"But don't be too happy yet. The swords that I collect all have varying degrees of spirituality and have certain requirements for their owners."

"If none of my swords are willing to acknowledge you as their master, then you will have to return empty-handed."

Spirituality? Recognition of a master?

Isn't this now within my area of ​​expertise?

Upon hearing Tai Baiji's words, Su Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Su Yuan straightened his back immediately and said disdainfully:
"If this is all you ask for, Master Taibai, you'd better be prepared to have your most precious Hidden Sword stolen by me."

Tai Baiji: "..."

The old father's gaze suddenly sharpened!

You just said it was awesome, right?

For many sword cultivators, their natal flying sword may be more important than their Daoist partner!

As a single man raising a child, Tai Baiji truly treats his natal flying sword as his wife!
A young punk with blond hair told him right in front of him that he wanted to take his wife away!

It hardened! The fist hardened!

Although the swords he was preparing to give to Su Yuan did not include his wife's... ptooey, his own natal flying sword, there were still quite a few swords in his collection that he regarded as his daughters.

So Su Yuan is planning to take his daughters away, right?
This is absolutely unacceptable!

"Hmph, then we'll see if you can truly gain the approval of my Hidden Sword Sect."

Tai Baiji sneered:
"Come with me."

As he spoke, he went directly to an elevator inside the large apartment, opened the elevator door, and entered.

Su Yuan followed him inside, somewhat confused.

The elevator ascended, and when the doors opened again, a new large penthouse appeared before Su Yuan. Inside this several-hundred-square-meter penthouse, a forest of swords stood! The entire room gleamed with a cold light, and a chilling aura emanated from it, causing Su Yuan to involuntarily shrink back.

Only then did he finally understand that this sword-loving Master Taibai had actually bought the floor above his residence in order to store his collection of swords!
Although Taihua City is not a major city, this residential complex is located in the city center and is one of the top three luxury residential complexes in the city! The value of one floor is probably over 100 million, or even more!

Gumbling—

Su Yuan swallowed hard, unconsciously letting out a surprised exclamation of ignorance.

However, Su Yuan soon realized that compared to the swords in the room, the value of the room itself was insignificant.

Among these three hundred swords, there were quite a few limited-edition flying swords produced by certain major weapon-refining sects that Su Yuan had seen online.

As for the price... it starts at tens of millions.

Most of the swords were ones that Su Yuan didn't even recognize, but judging from the chilling aura and murderous intent emanating from them, they were even more frightening than the limited-edition flying swords.

It's probably not a prototype!

As we all know, the materials and quality of the prototype far exceed those of the mass-produced model!

Seeing Su Yuan's dismayed expression, Taibai Baiji smiled with satisfaction and said:
"Go in and choose a sword that suits you, but don't blame me for not warning you, if you challenge those top ten spirit swords right away, you'll easily get injured."

Su Yuan was slightly taken aback, and after taking a closer look at the three hundred swords, he realized that the arrangement of the swords was quite ingenious.

At the very center of the Hidden Sword Pavilion are ten swords, each with a different appearance and aura, seemingly possessing their own life. The other Hidden Swords surround these ten swords like stars around the moon.

Having mastered the Demonic Art of Finger Weaponry, Su Yuan possesses a high degree of sensitivity to the spirituality of magical artifacts.

After a closer look, Su Yuan was surprised to find that the ten swords were so spiritually advanced that they were about to awaken their weapon spirits!
Moreover, they are not the kind of magical artifacts that once had an owner and developed their spirituality through daily interaction with that owner; rather, they possess a spirituality that tends to awaken from the moment they are created.

You can imagine how high the quality of these ten spirit swords is!

A sword of this caliber is an absolute priceless treasure!
Perhaps only a renowned figure like Taibai Baiji, who is expected to become a Nascent Soul sword cultivator in the future, could collect so many spiritual swords.

Su Yuan turned his head and looked at Tai Bai Tianji, who seemed somewhat smug, and asked in confusion:

"Master Taibai, each of these ten swords is invaluable, but why do you simply keep them as treasures instead of refining them and taking them to the battlefield?"

Tai Baiji: "..."

The smile on the face of the Golden Core cultivator froze.

You can't exactly tell this kid that his own natal flying sword is very strict with him and won't let him raise other flying swords!

Doesn't Bai Tianji have any pride?
Before Tai Baiji could come up with a reasonable explanation, Su Yuan discerned something from the former's subtle expression.

One look was enough to confirm it: he's henpecked.

Su Yuan immediately changed the subject, clearing his throat and saying:

"Then I'll go choose a sword first. Master Taibai, you don't need to take my words to heart."

Hey kid! Let me explain! Are you really looking for something by changing the subject like this?

Taibai Baiji's heart pounded wildly!

But it's too late to say anything now.

The next second, he didn't care whether his henpecked status had been discovered, because he was shocked to see that Su Yuan was heading straight for his ten most treasured spirit swords!

Then, without any hesitation, he grabbed one of the swords!
