635: Five Great Treasures

"There are rumors that he perished under the Immortal Tribulation, and there are also rumors that in the past, a True Immortal wished to descend upon the world to destroy all realms but was blocked by the Old Man Heavenly Sword, though ultimately, the Old Man Heavenly Sword also perished along with him..."

"There are all kinds of rumors, and I do not know which are true or false."

"But the Legacy of the Old Man Heavenly Sword has been passed down from generation to generation, continuing to this day."

"The method of the Legacy is to enter Heavenly Sword Mountain with the sword in your hand and become the Revered Master of Heavenly Sword Mountain. Heavenly Sword Mountain resides beyond the heavens, and no one can find it."

"Twelve Sword Revered Masters enter the Heavenly Mountain; whoever wields the Heavenly Sword becomes the Revered Master of Heavenly Sword Mountain."

"The Heavenly Sword, which I hear is located at the summit of Heavenly Sword Mountain, is the sword worn by the Old Man Heavenly Sword. Having been blessed by successive Revered Masters of Heavenly Sword Mountain, it contains countless Dao techniques, Legacies, and sword scriptures, and its power is unfathomable."

"It is an Acquired Supreme Treasure that is reputed to be on par with the five great innate supreme treasures born from the myriad worlds of the heavens."

"Its power is even greater than a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon."

The Goddess of the South Sea wore a look of deep emotion.

These secrets were something she had learned from Qing back in the day.

If it were not for that, even a Sovereign of Dao Integration would find it difficult to know these secrets.

"Such an immense origin..."

Zhou Xiuyuan looked somewhat shocked.

This was far beyond what he had guessed, and there were also the five great innate supreme treasures...

"Senior, these five great innate supreme treasures..."

Zhou Xiuyuan digested these messages in his heart and then asked.

"Normally, there is no benefit in telling you juniors this, but since you have such a connection, it does not matter if I tell you."

"However, I do not know much either."

"The five great innate supreme treasures were born from the Great Dao of the myriad worlds of the heavens; they are profound and unfathomable, beyond imagination."

"It is just that these five great innate supreme treasures have always been legends. The only one that has truly appeared in the world in its physical form is the creation immortal gourd in the hands of that Creation True Immortal."

"When the immortal gourd turns, it creates myriad things; the Great Dao is born and destroyed, and the heavens and earth lose their light."

"However, the creation immortal gourd has already ascended to the Immortal Realm with the Creation True Immortal, cutting off the thoughts of the world; otherwise, this heaven and earth would certainly not be so peaceful."

"As for the other four, they have never appeared in the world; only their Great Dao projections have manifested, and I know very little about them."

The Goddess of the South Sea said slowly.

"Then I..."

A rare feeling of anxiety appeared in Zhou Xiuyuan's heart.

The Heavenly Sword, which could rival the five great supreme treasures, had one of its keys held in his own hand. If this were to spread, would it not invite a great disaster upon his clan?

Zhou Xiuyuan lightly clenched his palm, and his indifferent state of mind from many years began to ripple.

This was not related to cultivation, but because there were still things in his heart that he cared about.

"Hehe."

"Heavenly Sword Mountain has passed down its Legacy for countless epochs, and this has always been the method for selecting successors."

"There must be hidden means that we do not know about. Besides, there are too many supreme treasures in this world, and there are quite a few items reputed to be on par with innate supreme treasures. The Heavenly Sword is not the only one."

The Goddess of the South Sea chuckled.

People's knowledge varies.

No one has truly experienced the power of an innate supreme treasure.

Those who saw the creation immortal gourd in action have likely been buried in the yellow earth for untold generations.

These titles often contain exaggeration, with more of a sense of admiration behind them.

To want to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with an innate supreme treasure, I am afraid there is still a distance.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior."

The voice of the Goddess of the South Sea brushed through his heart like a clear stream, allowing his rippling state of mind to calm down again.

Zhou Xiuyuan bowed respectfully and expressed his gratitude.

This trip not only allowed him to know the origin but also various secrets.

If he were to compete with the other nine, or even the two sword Revered Masters who had not yet appeared, he would already be a step ahead.

Not everyone has such karma as he does.

"Go."

The Goddess of the South Sea waved her hand.

Signaling for Zhou Xiuyuan to withdraw on his own.

Zhou Xiuyuan bowed again, then slowly composed his mind.

He took a step out, exited the Goddess of the South Sea's island, and headed towards Gui Zhou Island.

"An era of great contention... is the world about to fall into chaos again..."

After Zhou Xiuyuan left.

The Goddess of the South Sea, looking at the lotus flowers in the lake, sighed softly.

According to rumors, when Heavenly Sword Mountain appears in the world, it is often the beginning of chaos.

"Qing, where are you..."

The Goddess of the South Sea's eyes were slightly dazed...

If strife were to come, she feared she might not be able to wait here peacefully for Qing to return...

...

Chaotic Sea, Outer Sea, Gui Zhou Island.

Top of Qingyang Peak.

When Zhou Xiuyuan returned.

Zhou Liyue had already led a group of Sword Hall Disciples back to Gui Zhou Island.

On the peak.

"Third Paternal Grand-Aunt, Father."

Zhou Xiuyuan bowed to the two figures sitting upright.

They were Zhou Liyue and Zhou Leyi.

"Xiaoyuan breaking through his realm is truly a joy for the clan."

Zhou Liyue's eyes brightened slightly, her expression full of joy.

Although she had already learned the news of Zhou Xiuyuan breaking through from the clan Disciples, seeing it with her own eyes now, she still could not hide her joy.

A look of pride appeared on Zhou Leyi's face.

He nodded towards Zhou Xiuyuan.

After Zhou Xiuyuan paid his respects, he came to the side of the Dao platform and sat cross-legged.

Then he took out the voidless divine sword hanging from his waist.

He recounted what had happened previously and the information he had learned from the Goddess of the South Sea one by one.

The expressions of Zhou Liyue and Zhou Leyi gradually became serious, and their faces slowly grew solemn.

This matter had already exceeded their cognition.

It was not something they could get involved in or decide.

"Uncle Xuan..."

Zhou Liyue's heart stirred, and she was about to say something.

"I know."

Then they heard a magnificent, layered, majestic, and low voice ring in the ears of the three.

Zhou Liyue and Zhou Leyi were shocked.

Although it was just four short words, and there were no other instructions.

But both of their hearts settled down in an instant.

Zhou Xiuyuan was the same; the only slight hesitation he had before also completely dissipated at this moment.

...

At this time.

Eastern Wasteland, outside the five border domains, crossing the Xuanyu Swamp, passing over Xuanyuan Pass.

Yaoguang Domain.

Yaoguang Ancient Kingdom, outside the capital city.

Several huge spirit boats hanging snake-patterned zhou character command flag leapt out from the clouds.

The movement that swept up the wind and clouds startled the various Cultivators inside and outside the capital city.

"That is the spirit boat of the Zhou Family of the Chaotic Sea..."

"It must be for the Female Sovereign's birthday."

Various figures were shocked in their hearts.

The relationship between the Zhou Family and the Female Sovereign was not shallow; the Thousand Island Alliance firm already had dozens of branches within the Yaoguang Domain.

The various rare treasures from the sea they brought were once sought after by many Cultivators in the domain.

Moreover, the Female Sovereign's ninth Disciple, the Ninth Young Master who is famous in the domain, is a Zhou Family Disciples.

Therefore, when the Cultivators saw this flag, they did not appear surprised.

Hum~

As the spirit boat appeared.

Having already received the news, Yaoguang Ninth Young Master Zhou Xingqun, who was waiting outside the city, was just about to step forward with the welcoming Cultivators to greet them.

A tall figure, looking like he was in his fifties or sixties with slightly graying temples, appeared beside Zhou Xingqun.

"Senior Mu."

Zhou Xingqun's heart stirred; the person who came was the Old Ancestor of the Mu Family in the domain with the highest cultivation, a Void Refinement Late-stage mighty figure, the confidant of his Revered Master, Mu Xiongwu, the supreme commander in charge of all affairs in the capital city.

He would not easily appear; previously, when envoys from Dao Integration forces came, this Family Head Mu had not appeared either.

He did not expect that he would appear here today.

"Follow me to welcome the guests."

A hint of warmth appeared on Mu Xiongwu's majestic face as he instructed Zhou Xingqun and the various welcoming Cultivators.
