However, it is still extremely precious.

He wants this peerless sword. Once the system functions return to normal in another year, he should be able to go to the cultivation world. He feels that the quality of the Dragon Soul Sword is still not good enough.

If we add the Black Frost of the Peerless Sword and the White Dew of the Snow Drinking Blade, that should be enough.

The Sword Worship Manor is built around an active volcano, so that it can use the power of the earth's vein fire to forge swords, similar to the environment of Sword Forging City.

When Lin Zhu arrived, Duan Siping and Dugu Sheng also arrived.

The three of them happened to meet at the entrance of Baijian Manor.

Inside the Sword Worship Manor, the Sword Demon sensed the arrival of Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping; he could not ignore the two powerful sword intents.

The Sword Demon is Dugu Sheng, so the Sword Demon can only be the Sword Demon.

As for why the bamboo forest wasn't detected, that's due to the bamboo forest's unique characteristics.

Let alone his sword demon, even Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping looked at Lin Zhu with puzzled expressions.

He arrived on a sword, but his body was flawless, and no trace of his strength could be discerned.

Duan Siping cupped his hands and said, "Brother Dugu, and this young man, I, Duan Siping, greet you."

"So it's Senior Duan of the Six Meridians Divine Sword. It's a pleasure to meet you." Dugu Sheng returned the greeting with a cupped hand.

Lin Zhu clasped his hands in greeting, "Junior Lin Zhu greets the two seniors."

The two old men sized up Lin Zhu, thinking he was very young and must be a Taoist master.

Before the sword demon could even leave the Sword Worship Manor, another sharp sword intent appeared from afar.

Dugu Jian broke through the barrier of Wushuang City and arrived in person, transforming himself into a sword.

He was more than twenty years older than Wuming, and was nearly ninety years old at the time. He had enough skill, but he was still a little short of the Heavenly Realm in terms of cultivation level.

He was defeated by Wuming back then, and he has been stuck there ever since, unable to make any progress in his cultivation.

Sensing the existence of the peerless sword, he broke through the barrier and emerged.

It was also because he had already comprehended the Twenty-Second Sword Technique and broken through that barrier that he happened to have the opportunity to come.

Then I noticed Duan Siping and Dugu Sheng.

Dugu Sheng knew this and was quite jealous of him.

We all share the surname Dugu, so what makes you so strong?

He was defeated by Dugu Sheng in his youth and by Wuming in his middle age.

If it weren't for his unwavering resolve, he would have perished long ago, his sword destroyed, in repeated failures.

"Brother Jian, you've come too." Dugu Sheng was quite kind to Dugu Jian.

Dugu Jian snorted coldly, "I am your defeated opponent, I am not worthy of being called brother."

Dugu Sheng was not offended, he just smiled.

Lin Zhu looked at the two of them curiously, sensing that there seemed to be some story between them.

Dugu Jian sensed it, "What are you looking at, little girl?"

"Wait, Senior Dugu, I am a man, not some little girl."

Lin Zhu quickly began to explain.

Only then did Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping take a closer look at Lin Zhu's appearance. If Dugu Jian hadn't brought it up, they would have completely overlooked Lin Zhu's looks.

This appearance was indeed beyond their comprehension.

At this moment, inside the Sword Worship Manor, the Sword Demon was already numb.

One expert after another has arrived.

They originally intended for the peerless sword to emerge gradually, but the sword intent was so strong that it attracted almost all the peerless swordsmen in the world.

Their Baijian Mountain Villa is too small and insignificant to afford it!

It seems the peerless sword is beyond saving.

However, since everyone had arrived, they couldn't very well not go out to greet them.

Madam Ao, leading Aotian and the Sword Demon, opened the central gate and stepped out. "This humble servant, along with my son Aotian, pays our respects to all the seniors. The peerless sword will take another half month to forge, so please come inside the manor and wait for a while."

Everyone, including Lin Zhu, entered the gates of Baijian Manor.

Ao Tian stared at Lin Zhu with a look of infatuation.

Lin Zhu was disgusted and unleashed his sword intent, startling Ao Tian.

Duan Siping, Dugu Sheng, and Dugu Jian couldn't help but chuckle.

They had already believed that Lin Zhu was a man, but his appearance was indeed not easy for those with weak wills to resist.

However, the sword intent emanating from Lin Zhu made them realize that his strength was not much weaker than their own.

Dugu Jian sensed a threat from Lin Zhu.

Chapter 325 The Sword Saint Who Denies Himself

Baijian Manor is quite large. Lin Zhu and the other three were each assigned to a separate courtyard with maids to serve them.

Duan Siping suggested going to the sword furnace to see the peerless sword.

The Sword Worship Manor couldn't refuse, so they had no choice but to bring them inside.

In the center of the sword furnace, a huge sword stood amidst the magma.

This was the first time anyone had ever seen such a huge sword.

Duan Siping asked, "What is this?"

A robust old man replied, "This is Black Frost. It is shaped to form Sword Essence. Whoever obtains Sword Essence will obtain an unparalleled sword."

Lin Zhu's heart stirred, and he asked, "If I obtain this sword essence, will any sword become an unparalleled masterpiece?"

The old man smiled and shook his head. "Not so. The sword essence captures its spirit, and the sword body captures its form. If you want to obtain a peerless sword completely, you must infuse the sword essence into a sword body that resembles its form."

As he spoke, he pointed to the hundred or so exquisite sword blanks surrounding Hei Han.

Lin Zhu then asked, "Are all the swords made of the same material?"

“That’s right.” The old man nodded. “For hundreds of years, our Sword Worship Manor has been shaping Black Frost and condensing its essence into sword energy, just waiting for it to awaken.”

Lin Zhu nodded and then asked, "I've heard that there's a defeated sword in the Sword Worship Manor, is that true?"

The old man stiffened and hurriedly said, "The Sword of Defeat is a sword of great misfortune. It is not yet complete and must not be released into the world! Please do not make a mistake for yourself."

"The Sword of Great Calamity, I also want to try it out. What do you two think?" Dugu Jian became interested in the Sword of Defeat and looked at Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping.

Lin Zhu, Dugu Sheng, Dugu Jian, and Duan Siping all looked at Ao Tian, ​​"Young Master Ao Tian, ​​could you perhaps take us to see him?"

Ao Tian was completely bewildered. He had never heard of the Sword of Defeat before!

He turned to look at the old man.

The old man sighed, knowing that Lin Zhu and the other three were no ordinary people. Didn't he see that the arrogant young master had completely lost his arrogance?

Even the arrogant and domineering Sword Demon has become like a quail.

"The Sword of Defeat is in the Sword Tomb. Young Master, take these people with you."

Ao Tian was extremely frustrated. With such a divine weapon, why bother forging a peerless sword? If he could forge it sooner, he could securely protect the foundation of the Sword Worship Manor with this sword.

Now that these four people know the location of the Sword of Defeat, he fears he will be unable to obtain it.

He had no choice but to take the four of them to the Sword Tomb.

The Sword Tomb is a huge cave located in the back mountain of the Sword Worship Manor.

The cave was dark, but everyone could see the night as day.

The ground was covered with countless sharp swords, numbering no less than a thousand.

Upon seeing this scene, Lin Zhu wanted to use the Ten Thousand Swords Return to One technique.

These are real swords; thousands of them flying together must be a spectacular sight.

Then, without realizing it, a trace of sword intent was revealed.

Dugu Sheng, Dugu Jian, and Duan Siping all looked at him, their sword intent being stirred.

Dugu Sheng's swordsmanship lies in purity; he uses his own body as a sword, heaven and earth as a sword, and all things as a sword.

In his eyes, everything can be interpreted through the sword.

Dugu Jian's sword is characterized by its ruthlessness; his sword strikes are merciless, devoid of self and form, and he is willing to sacrifice himself for the way of the sword.

Duan Siping's swordsmanship lies in its sharpness. Like Lin Zhu, he does not focus on swordsmanship but rather on his own cultivation.

However, his main skill is the Six Meridians Divine Sword, but he focuses primarily on internal energy cultivation, and swordsmanship is merely a tool he uses against his enemies.

Lin Zhu was the same; he was even more thorough than Duan Siping, treating the sword as just one of his tools against his enemies.

However, regardless of whether the sword intent is pure or not, once it is aroused, it will inevitably have to contend with the enemy.

It was a clash of four sword intents.

The contest of swordsmanship is not based on skill level, but on the intent behind the sword.

Sword Demon cultivated the Severing Meridian Sword Qi, and Ao Tian also practiced swordsmanship, but at this moment, they both withdrew from the Sword Tomb.

Within the sword tomb, thousands of swords, whether broken, rusty, or intact, were all stirred by the sword intent of the four men and rose from the ground.

The four people occupy the four directions.

Lin Zhu's sword is contained within the true meaning of Tai Chi; once unsheathed, its sharpness is fully revealed.

Dugu Sheng sensed that Lin Zhu's sword intent was somewhat similar to his own.

How could it not resemble him? He formally entered the path of swordsmanship with the Nine Swords of Dugu, and condensed his sword heart.

It was only later that this sword heart merged back into Wuji, and was even washed away by the Myriad Swords Return to Origin.

Finally, there is the White Ape Sword Manual, which is the culmination of A Qing's swordsmanship. Using it as a reference, Lin Zhu's level of swordsmanship is no less than that of Dugu Sheng.

However, in terms of skill level, Lin Zhu is far inferior to Dugu Sheng in swordsmanship alone, and even inferior to Dugu Jian. He is only slightly better than Duan Siping.
