Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping both looked at Dugu Jian, their eyes revealing shock.

Above the Sword Worship Manor, a powerful stream of spiritual energy formed a funnel, gathering spiritual energy from thousands of miles away and pouring it into Dugu Jian's body.

Dugu Jian arrived at the Heavenly Realm in an instant.

On the second day, the Heavenly Realm was in its mid-stage; on the fifth day, the Heavenly Realm was in its late-stage; on the tenth day, dark clouds filled the sky, and heavenly thunder descended.

Dugu Jian looked up at the sky, took a step out of the Sword Tomb, and prepared to face the Heavenly Tribulation.

Dugu Sheng and Duan Siping had already emerged from the Sword Tomb.

[Ding, live stream conditions detected. Search for streamer successful. This live stream will be hosted by the despicable Lin Zhu. Proceed?]

He could now ignore the system's complaints.

The live broadcast screen is now open.

Wu Xingyun: What happened?

Her hands are moving too fast; it's really quite boring.

Chapter 327 Dugu Jian: Ah Sheng...

Inviting the Moon: It's been almost half a month, Yu Yan and Wan Wan have both arrived, why haven't you come yet? @Lin Zhu

Wanwan: Exactly, exactly, why is it so dark today?

Lin Zhu: Someone has broken through to become a terrestrial immortal and is currently undergoing tribulation.

Wu Xingyun: A terrestrial immortal? Who is that?

Lin Zhu: Wushuang City, Sword Saint.

Dream Without a Trace (IP Western Regions): My uncle recently broke through his cultivation barrier, and I was wondering where he had gone! By the way, I am Dugu Meng.

[Ding! Detected that Dugu Meng has revealed her identity. You have gained half a year's worth of cultivation.]

Mingyue: It's the Sword Saint senior!

"Is this the Heavenly Tribulation?" Nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, Dugu Jian's hair and beard had turned black, and the wrinkles on his face had been smoothed out. Looking at the tribulation clouds filling the sky, he was not afraid at all.

His body surged with sword energy, forming countless sharp swords. He leaped into the air and charged towards the tribulation clouds.

The next moment, the primordial spirit emerged, and with its body and primordial spirit as the center, the surrounding space and time froze, even the heavenly tribulation that was about to strike stopped.

Sword Twenty-Three: Annihilation of Heaven and Earth

The sword energy dispersed the tribulation clouds, returned, and carried the life force within the tribulation clouds into his primordial spirit.

Under the tempering of the tribulation lightning, the primordial spirit transformed into pure yang.

A terrestrial paradise has been created.

Lin Zhu, Dugu Sheng, Duan Siping, and everyone watching the live stream were all stunned.

Wu Xingyun: This person is very strong.

Dugu Meng: Is my uncle really that powerful?

Wu Xingyun: He is very powerful, I probably can't beat him.

[Ding, live stream ended. That wretched Lin Zhu gained half a year's worth of cultivation.]

The system briefly appeared to make its presence known, and then disappeared again.

The clouds of calamity dispersed, and the sky was cloudless for thousands of miles.

Dugu Jian floated down from the sky, looked at Lin Zhu, bowed and thanked him, "Dugu Jian thanks you for saving my life, young friend!"

Lin Zhu quickly stepped forward to support him, saying, "Senior Sword Saint, please don't be like this. It was just a chance encounter."

Dugu Jian replied, "This is not only a life-saving grace, but also a grace that leads to your enlightenment. I have no way to repay it. May I be allowed to be your protector?"

Lin Zhu was startled, not expecting Dugu Jian to have such thoughts.

They are called protectors, but in reality they are just serving Lin Zhu; they are simply equals.

Of course, as a swordsman, Dugu Jian could not be a slave or servant.

Should Lin Zhu agree, agree, or agree?

Of course I agreed.

"Then I'll have to trouble you from now on, Senior Sword Saint."

"Hahaha!" Dugu Jian was overjoyed and grabbed Lin Zhu's hand.

From then on, he became Lin Zhu's protector.

Then, he looked at Dugu Sheng and stepped forward, saying, "Ah Sheng, I'll wait for you to become a terrestrial immortal."

That appearance was simply...

Dugu Sheng felt like he was losing his composure. What was wrong with this old guy? He suddenly got ahead of me. Was it really that absurd?

Also, what kind of nickname is Ah Sheng? I've never heard it used to sound so affectionate before.

Although he was extremely resentful inside, he still appeared calm and said, "Don't worry, it won't be long."

He believed that if he could defeat Dugu Jian once, he would do it again.

At this moment, my competitive spirit rose once again.

In terms of swordsmanship, he was known as the second best in the world, and no one dared to claim the best.

But now, with Dugu Jian overtaking him, his competitive spirit has been ignited, and he feels like he's back in his youth, full of energy.

He knew that Dugu Jian's attainment of Dao was his own destiny, the destiny to become a terrestrial immortal, not the peerless sword.

Only with a competitive spirit in the way of the sword can one achieve a complete self.

The so-called peerless sword is no longer important.

As for Duan Siping, witnessing Dugu Jian undergo his tribulation firsthand, he realized the gap between himself and Dugu Jian.

His skill level is sufficient, but he still falls short in terms of artistic realm.

This experience has broadened his horizons. He has taken another step forward from the Heavenly Realm to the Land Immortal Realm, and there is hope for him to become a Land Immortal.

And the one who caused all of this was that person.

Lin Zhu, an old guy who looks very young.

This is the opinion of everyone, including Dugu Jian.

Dugu Jian was very satisfied with Dugu Sheng's answer. He wanted to defeat Dugu Sheng honorably before challenging other terrestrial immortals.

At that time, I will be unbeatable!

But then he thought about it again. Now that he was Lin Zhu's protector, he decided to leave the title of "Invincible Swordsman" for the time being. He would just go and provoke Wuming after the Peerless Sword was born.

I won't cause Lin Zhu any trouble.

At this moment, within the Sword Tomb, the Dragon Soul Sword had completely devoured the Defeat Sword, and the sound of dragon roars echoed.

It's just that it doesn't dare to come out because of the heavenly tribulation.

Now that they dared, a golden dragon flew out of the sword tomb and hovered in front of Lin Zhu.

The Dragon Soul Sword has taken on a new form.

With a pure gold exterior, the hilt and blade are seamlessly integrated. The blade is long and slender, with smooth lines from the hilt to the tip, and the words "Dragon Soul" are engraved on it in seal script.

The hilt is decorated with dragon scale patterns, and the end is a dragon head.

After devouring the sword spirit of the Sword of Defeat, the Golden Dragon Sword Spirit became even more solid, and its manifested normal form reached three zhang in length.

A ten-meter-long golden dragon is quite large.

Lin Zhu gripped the Dragon Soul Sword, feeling its weight grow even heavier.

The Dragon Soul Sword seemed to sense Lin Zhu's intention, and its weight decreased slightly.

Lin Zhu felt a sense of wonder; the Dragon Soul Sword was becoming increasingly sentient, but he still silently thought to himself, 'That weight was just right.'

The Dragon Soul Sword truly regained its original weight and became full of spiritual energy.

He couldn't resist performing a sword flourish, and the sword energy radiated outwards.

This includes the sharp sword energy of the Sword of Defeat.

"Congratulations on your transformation into a divine weapon, young friend." Duan Siping stepped forward and offered his congratulations with a cupped-fist salute.

One shouldn't hit a smiling face, so Lin Zhu returned the greeting, "Thank you, senior."

Duan Siping said, "I have gained a lot from this trip, so I will not stay here any longer. If you have time in the future, young friend, you are welcome to visit the Dali Kingdom. I will welcome you with open arms."

"Definitely!" Lin Zhu cupped his hands in greeting.

Dugu Sheng also said, "I will take my leave now, as I have a young apprentice at home."

Lin Zhu and Dugu Jian saw the two off.

As soon as we walked out of the back mountain, we saw that the area around the Sword Worship Manor was surrounded by people, almost everyone holding a sword.

Lin Zhu saw several familiar faces: Ximen Chuixue, Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, Hu Tiehua, and Yan Shisan.

Of course, there were also a few I didn't recognize.

Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang were astonished.

"Brother Lu, Brother Chu, and Brother Ximen, I didn't expect you to be here too!"

Dugu Sheng, Dugu Jian, and Duan Siping looked at the three men. They were all Grandmasters, and they looked so young that they shouldn't be too old.

Ximen Chuixue nodded slightly to Lin Zhu, then looked at Dugu Sheng and Dugu Jian.

He sensed a powerful sword intent emanating from the two men.

As for Duan Siping, he wasn't a pure swordsman, so he overlooked him.

Dugu Sheng and Dugu Jian looked at Ximen Chuixue, and both of them saw their own reflections in him.

Dugu Jian was even somewhat eager to try, feeling that he and Ximen Chuixue were destined to be master and disciple, and that this person was very suitable to inherit his swordsmanship.

Aside from Ximen Chuixue and his group, none of the swordsmen present recognized Lin Zhu, and they were all curious about his identity and why he was standing next to these three seniors.
