Chapter 16 The Four Swords of Trapping Immortals
After things stabilized, Zhen Yuanzi smiled with relief. With his heartstrings relaxed, he could no longer hold on and immediately went into seclusion to restore his original essence and calm his mind.
Before going into seclusion, he forced himself to erase the restrictions on the Earth Book, bowed once, and handed it to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing returned the greeting, expressed his gratitude, and then left the Pure Land with the extremely excited Jieyin and Zhunti.
"Senior brother, our Western world is saved!"
After Xu Qing left, Zhunti couldn't help but say to Jieyin, a quasi-saint level innate power, his tone now carrying the jubilation of a young man.
"Xu Qing is truly extraordinary. It's a pity that such a person is an Eastern being."
Jieyin touched his yellowish-white face and said with some regret, "If Xu Qing were a Western being, let alone recovering, it wouldn't be impossible for him to even surpass the Eastern beings."
On the other side, Xu Qing was carrying the Earth Book to Kunlun Mountain. Because the Ancestral Witches did not have primordial spirits, only he could use the Earth Book, and it could not be given to them.
But judging by the time, the four immortal swords his brothers had forged for him should be almost finished, so he decided to go to Kunlun Mountain first.
Several years later, a long, thin crimson glow appeared on Kunlun Mountain; it was Xu Qing riding a red lotus.
"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, I'm back. I wonder if those four small swords have been forged yet?"
As soon as they entered the mountains, Xu Qing called out, eager to see his three elder brothers.
The moment Xu Qing finished speaking, three Taoist priests, one old, one middle-aged, and one young, appeared before him. They were none other than the Three Pure Ones, whom he had been longing for day and night.
"You brat, you've been gone for so long, and the first thing you do when you come back is ask for magic treasures. Let me tell you, you don't have any. Those four little swords were destroyed by my second brother."
Lingbao, being the most impatient, looked at Xu Qing, put his hands behind his back, and feigned anger.
"Nonsense! With my mastery of weapon crafting, no one in the entire prehistoric world surpasses me. Even if I don't refine it perfectly, I certainly wouldn't ruin it. You deserve a beating."
Lingbao lightened the mood, and having not seen Xu Qing for a long time, even the usually stern Yuanshi made a joke, reaching out to tap Lingbao on the head.
"Alright, you're all supposed to be saints, look at the state you're in, what kind of behavior is this?"
That's what he said, but even as he stroked his beard, he couldn't hide his smile.
"Third brother is right. I was too hasty. But third brother doesn't hide anything from second brother when he speaks ill of others, so he's not much better than me."
Xu Qing smiled and teased Lingbao.
"Fourth brother is right. Third brother should learn from this. Look, these are your four little swords."
Using the two broken swords you gave me as raw materials, along with some rare and precious materials that my elder brother has collected since the beginning of time, I will refine them, and finally, my third brother will inscribe the formation.
After it was completed, the three of us added some creation merits to it, and it remains unnamed at this time.
Yuanshi smiled and, as he spoke, took out a sword box containing four small swords.
Yuan Tu A Bi was originally a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. Based on this, with the addition of rare and precious materials and merits, any small sword could be infinitely close to a top-grade spiritual treasure.
Furthermore, with the addition of a spiritual treasure that imitates the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to inscribe the formation, when activated, the four elements become one, achieving a level comparable to a supreme innate treasure. However, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is complex and profound, and the spiritual treasure has not yet fully comprehended it.
Xu Qing, who possessed the God-Slaying Spear, was not lacking in killing power, so the sword formation of these four swords was designed primarily to trap people, with its killing power not being particularly prominent.
But with every sacrifice comes a gain. His ability to trap enemies is truly at the level of a supreme innate treasure. The original Zhuxian Sword Formation is incredibly powerful and is said to be unbreakable by anyone other than the Four Saints.
The array formed by these four small swords, activated by Xu Qing's cultivation level, can be said to be unbreakable by anyone less than a Quasi-Saint.
Even if the opponent also possesses a supreme innate treasure, as long as there are fewer than four people, they will not be able to break through this formation in a short time, thus failing to live up to the name of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
After hearing Yuan Shi's words, and even the fact that the three of them were willing to give up their creation merits in order to refine these four small swords, Xu Qing, who was already a powerful innate expert, was quite moved at this moment and bowed to his three elder brothers again.
"What are you doing? Our friendship as four people, is it not worth these four small swords?"
"Third brother is right, I've been too distant."
After being helped up by Lingbao, Xu Qing said.
Lingbao didn't say much, just waved his hand as if to drive away the unpleasantness, and asked Xu Qing a question.
"It's alright, Fourth Brother, you should think about what to name these four swords first."
"Since this sword formation of four swords is modeled after the Zhuxian Sword Formation and is mainly for trapping people, let's call it the Trapping Immortal Sword Formation, and these four swords shall be called the Trapping Immortal Four Swords."
The name was standard, simple, and clear, and the Three Pure Ones all nodded in agreement.
"As for these four small swords, I will imitate the naming style of the Four Swords of Zhuxian from my third brother and call them Trapped Immortal, Fixed Immortal, Locked Immortal, and Stopped Immortal. What do you think?"
Xu Qing considered for a moment, then spoke again.
"Okay, now as soon as it gets out, everyone will know that it was Lingbao's doing. I don't care, I'm just a little tired. It's a pity that you've emptied your coffers, and you can't even leave your name behind."
Yuan Shi looked up at the sky and pretended to be angry.
"It was my oversight, please don't blame me, second brother. Rest assured, in the future, whenever I use this magic weapon in battle, I will shout loudly, 'This was crafted by my second brother, with materials provided by my eldest brother.' What do you think?"
Xu Qing quickly begged for mercy.
"Haha, okay, it's a deal."
The Three Pure Ones laughed upon hearing this, and for a moment, the Kunlun Mountains were bustling with activity.
After joking around for a while, the Three Pure Ones had to continue their cultivation, and Xu Qing had to deal with the earth veins, so they parted ways. The Three Pure Ones returned to their caves, and Xu Qing left Kunlun Mountain.
With a reluctant glance at the majestic sky on the horizon, Xu Qing turned around, picked up the Earth Book, and sat on the red lotus, ready to head west once more.
According to the order list given to him by Houtu, the four people repairing the earth's veins at this moment should be Zhurong, Gonggong, Shebishi, and Zhujiuyin.
His mind flashed through the personalities and appearances of these people. As the only one who could use the Earth Book, he needed to coordinate everyone in order to repair and manage the earth veins as quickly as possible.
However, the Ancestral Witches were created from the essence and blood of Pangu, which was tainted with evil energy. They were naturally violent, and the underground space was full of evil energy, which further fueled their madness.
As an outsider, getting them to obey orders is no easy task. If Xu Qing hadn't been kind to the Wu Clan and hadn't had the power to utilize the Law of Emotions, this would probably have been an impossible mission.
With his mind preoccupied with matters concerning the earth's veins, Xu Qing sat cross-legged on the red lotus and closed his eyes to rest.
In the shadows unseen by him, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Kunpeng, and Fuxi were watching Xu Qing under the cover of the Hetu and Luoshu, waiting for him to leave Kunlun Mountain.
According to the deductions of Di Jun and Fu Xi, Xu Qing and the Three Pure Ones will not reunite for a long time after they part ways, which is enough to show that the Three Pure Ones will not suddenly go to find Xu Qing.
In other words, Xu Qing was practically all alone during this period. Although they didn't know why, all four of them believed that this was the best time to make their move.
Within the small space enveloped by the Hetu and Luoshu, the Chaos Bell, the Netherworld Gourd, and the Yin Banana Leaf emitted various colors of light, already poised to unleash their power.
