After clearing the level, the fairies were reborn!

For no apparent reason, Xu Ze recalled the time when Ding Wan transferred her skills to him, a scene strikingly similar to this one.

As expected of a teacher, he passed on his own techniques, which he earned himself from the secret realm.

I will never benefit from my family's influence.

He glanced through the available rewards and, while somewhat tempted, didn't feel a particularly strong connection.

His pupils suddenly contracted when he saw the name of one of the cultivation techniques.

"The Profound Spirit Dividing Technique?"

Among them, a second-grade cultivation technique caught Xu Ze's attention.

Isn't this the follow-up cultivation technique to the "Mysterious Spirit Forging Meridian Technique" and the "Mysterious Spirit Sword Technique"?!

That's enough to support his cultivation at both the Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation realms!

Moreover, it seems that unexpected things might happen after practicing these three techniques at the same time.

"This is it."

Xu Ze took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, he locked his consciousness onto the "Mysterious Spirit Dividing Technique" and made his choice.

No matter how good other techniques are, they are of no help to him, and they have no synergy with his skills.

It would be foolish for him to abandon his cultivation and try to learn another technique now. It would not only waste the foundation he had built, but also take up a lot of time.

"Om-"

The ball of light flashed slightly the moment Xu Ze made his choice, and then completely merged into the depths of his brow.

Xu Ze closed his eyes and quickly digested the contents of the cultivation technique.

In just this short period of time.

Not far away.

Fairy Qing Shuang stood motionless, like a meticulously sculpted ice jade statue.

Her pale white dress fluttered slightly in the icy wind, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xu Ze, filled with unbelievable shock.

Sword Intent!

Although it was only for a moment.

But just now, she truly felt it!

That's sword intent! True sword intent!

The person before me is a potential sword immortal who has comprehended the essence of swordsmanship!

Although she wasn't a sword cultivator, she knew what 'sword intent' meant.

That is the realm of understanding that comes after swordsmanship has reached an extremely high level; it is one of the most powerful techniques of a swordsman.

Out of ten thousand sword cultivators, perhaps only one might comprehend the essence of swordsmanship.

In the past thousand years, only Ding Zhaoxue has emerged from Beiju Luzhou.

Sword cultivators with sword intent are almost invincible among those of the same level, and can even fight against those of higher levels!

Because sword intent has already touched upon the level of "Tao," which is a higher-dimensional power.

"No wonder he's so confident..."

Fairy Qing Shuang murmured to herself, her voice so soft that only she could hear it.

She had considered that this kid might be very strong.

But she never expected it to be this strong!

Given this, is there any chance I'll get him to ask me for help?

Fairy Qing Shuang's heart was in turmoil.

At the same time.

Apart from those who advanced, all the other people ranked eleventh or lower.

They all now had an extra 'token' in their hands.

This 'token' is completely different in texture from Xu Ze's 'inner disciple token'. They are grayish in color, and the material seems to be ordinary wood with rough workmanship.

At the same time, a faint light appeared on their foreheads.

The light quickly condensed, transforming into a complex rune mark that was deeply imprinted on their skin and even seeped into the depths of their souls!

Even if they had seen Nascent Soul or Void Refinement stage cultivators in their families or sects use this method, they would not have this ability.

From this day forward, their souls will be bound together with this sect called 'Xuanling Sect'.

For a moment, all the 'prodigies' who failed to advance seemed to lose their sparkle in their eyes.

They looked up at Xu Ze, their eyes filled with respect.

Especially the token in his hand with the character '玄' written on it.

It was as if that was their 'way'.

"H-They've all really become menial disciples?"

Looking at this horrifying scene.

Fairy Qing Shuang and several other people who had advanced felt a chill run down their spines.

Originally, they didn't take the punishment seriously.

Seeing this scene now, they truly realized that the power of the ancient sects was beyond the imagination of them, the cultivators of later generations.

"Young Master Xu, I..."

Just as Fairy Qing Shuang took a few deep breaths, forcibly adjusting her shock and thoughts, and was about to step forward again to have a proper conversation with the young man in front of her.

Xu Ze seemed to have already digested the information about the cultivation technique. With a flicker, he transformed into a streak of sword light and vanished.

Fairy Qing Shuang clenched her teeth, seemingly lost in thought.

……

"Wow, how did you do that?"

From Mu Qinghe's perspective, Xu Ze really only went for a short while before returning, keeping his promise.

Furthermore, they won first place in the first trial and received a reward.

This efficiency is simply outrageous.

"Did you steal that kid surnamed Song?"

The little girl asked curiously.

"No, I killed him."

Chapter 82 The Mother and Daughter Suffered Greatly

Xu Zeyun remained calm and composed.

He originally only intended to rob someone.

But this guy killed and robbed first, and he even had murderous intent towards me.

Xu Ze's decision on whether or not to kill someone was simple: if you have murderous intent towards me, then don't blame me for killing you.

If you are not prepared to be killed, you have no right to kill.

Upon hearing this, Mu Qinghe blinked, her small face showing no surprise or fear whatsoever. Instead, her eyes lit up, as if she had heard something particularly exciting:

"You're so cool, bro!"

Being decisive and ruthless is the best quality.

"Did you receive your reward? What was it? Let me see!"

She sidled up to Xu Ze, craning her neck and waiting curiously for him to bring out the item.

Xu Ze glanced at her, somewhat surprised by her reaction.

This little girl is quite something.

"The reward is a cultivation technique." Xu Ze took out the dark gold "Xuan" character token and waved it in front of Mu Qinghe. "And this, an inner disciple token."

"Gong method?"

Mu Qinghe took the token, examined it from all angles, and a look of disappointment immediately appeared on her small face:

"Why is it a cultivation technique... I thought it was some kind of fun magic weapon."

She pouted, shoved the token back into Xu Ze's hand, and showed little interest.

Xu Ze chuckled: "Isn't the cultivation technique good? This is a second-grade cultivation technique. If it were out there, countless people would fight tooth and nail for it."

"I can't practice it," Mu Qinghe muttered. "My mother said I can only practice the cultivation method she taught me after I reach Nascent Soul stage. Before that, I can't touch any cultivation method, otherwise it will affect my 'purity' or something..."

She didn't really understand these cultivation practices; she only knew that she had to obey her mother's orders.

Therefore, she had absolutely no interest in cultivation techniques or incantations.

If it's a fun magical artifact or a delicious spiritual fruit, she might get excited.

Xu Ze smiled and shook his head, saying nothing more.

This kind of being, who is similar to a "natural Dao body", may seem like a weakling now, but once they start cultivating, their speed of progress will probably be terrifying.

He checked Song Yubai's storage bag, which still contained a lot of Lin Jianshen's belongings, now all of which were his spoils of war.

Since I have my own save file, I don't need to skimp on anything that's usable in it.

……

Donghua City, the Song family mansion.

The council chamber had a floor paved with smooth, mirror-like obsidian, and in the center stood a huge rosewood table.

A young man in his thirties walked in. He looked about five or six parts like Song Yubai, but he was more composed and his eyes were more profound.
