303: Chapter 303 The Great Way of the Sword, the Inheritance of Weapon Forging!

"Bang!"

Taiyu Sword Venerable's unfailing sword escape art let out a muffled thud when it crashed into the barrier formed by the descending myriad things mother qi, and he was directly bounced back.

"What?! A spatial blockade?!"

Taiyu Sword Venerable discovered in despair that this space had been completely solidified. Even though he was proficient in the Space Sword Dao, he could not tear it in the slightest.

"A turtle in a jar; let's see where you can run."

Lu Yuan walked over step by step. Every step he took felt like a death knell tolling in Taiyu Sword Venerable's heart.

In this desperate situation, a flash of crazed determination crossed Taiyu Sword Venerable's eyes.

"Want to kill me? It's not that easy!"

He roared, and his entire body's Essence Blood ignited instantly. At this moment, he underwent an extremely eerie transformation.

"Taixu Sword Body, Man and Sword as One!"

"Buzz—"

His body began to rapidly etherealize and elongate, finally disappearing completely. In its place was a divine sword that was transparent throughout and entwined with endless Space-Time Runes.

This was his Void Immortal body—the Taixu Sword Body! In essence, he had long ago refined himself into a sword, a peerless ominous sword containing the embryonic forms of the Law of Space and Law of Time!

"Slash!"

The Taixu Sword Body erupted with a Soul-shaking sword hum.

A beam of sword light, brilliant to the extreme, soared into the sky. This sword light seemed as if it did not belong to this world; it crossed the distance of space and even distorted the passage of time to a certain extent.

"Rip—"

Within the myriad things mother qi cauldron's Domain, which was claimed to be an absolute blockade, a tiny spatial rift was actually torn open by this sword!

"Now!"

The Taixu Sword Body turned into a streak of light, about to escape through that rift.

"Somewhat interesting, but that's all."

Lu Yuan's expression was indifferent, as if he had long expected this scene.

Just as the Taixu Sword Body was about to pass through the rift, Lu Yuan's eyes snapped open. Within his Double Pupils, two rays of Chaotic Divine Light shot forth.

"Double Pupils Opening Heaven!"

"Buzz—"

The spatial rift that had originally opened suddenly underwent a strange distortion.

It did not heal, but rather... turned into an independent small world!

The Taixu Sword Body was like a moth flying into a net, plunging headlong into this small world.

"What?!"

Taiyu Sword Venerable discovered in horror that he had not escaped with his life, but had instead fallen into an even more desperate cage.

Within this small world, Chaos Qi permeated and rules were chaotic. No matter how he lunged left and right, slashing out streaks of startling Sword Qi, he could not shake the walls of this world in the slightest.

"It's over."

Lu Yuan took a step forward, and his figure appeared directly within this small world.

Facing the Taixu Sword Body that was still struggling frantically, Lu Yuan did not perform any fancy moves; the 400 million ancient dragon-elephant particles within his body roared in unison, like exploding thunder.

"Heavenly God Fist!"

He threw a punch.

This punch connected with the great power of the Ancient Heaven. A vast holy radiance gathered on his fist, as if countless deities were chanting, judging all the evils of the world.

"Bang—!!!"

The fist slammed heavily onto the Taixu Sword Body.

A clear sound of shattering rang out.

The divine sword, which was claimed to be indestructible and contained the Laws of Space and Time, was actually covered in cracks in an instant like fragile colored glass under Lu Yuan's punch.

"No—!!!"

Taiyu Sword Venerable let out an extremely shrill scream.

Immediately after, with a "crash," the Taixu Sword Body completely shattered, turning into a sky full of crystalline fragments and pure Sword Dao Laws.

"Heaven Devouring Demonic Art!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Yuan turned his palm into a massive black hole, directly devouring all those fragments and Laws.

"Rumble—"

As the Dao Fruit of this Void Immortal Peak powerhouse entered his body, the aura within Lu Yuan surged once again.

Originally already at the Void Immortal Late Stage, he finally crossed that threshold at this moment, stepping into the level of Void Immortal Peak in one go!

And Taiyu Sword Venerable's brilliant Sword Dao insights were also fully absorbed by Lu Yuan, becoming his own nourishment.

In an instant, Lu Yuan felt countless Sword Dao Profound Truths flash through his mind.

"So that's how it is... This is the Great Dao of the Sword."

Lu Yuan extended a finger and lightly flicked his fingertip.

An invisible Sword Qi was generated out of thin air, easily slicing through the void. The sharpness it contained was not far behind that of Taiyu Sword Venerable!

After dealing with Taiyu Sword Venerable, Lu Yuan did not linger. With a flash of his body, he left the Ancient Bronze Palace.

His gaze shifted toward another direction in the Kunxu Secret Realm.

There was another Inheritance Grand Hall there, carrying Old Man Miesheng's proudest achievement—the Artifact Refining Inheritance.

...

Outside the Artifact Refining Inheritance Grand Hall.

Two humanoid Puppets, three zhang tall and made entirely of an unknown metal, were guarding both sides of the hall entrance like door gods.

The Puppet on the left held a greatsword, while the Puppet on the right held a long saber.

Although they had no life, they emitted a terrifying aura comparable to the Void Immortal Early Stage. Clearly, they were crafted by the hand of a master.

"Puppets? Interesting."

As soon as Lu Yuan arrived, the two Puppets reacted instantly.

"Intruder, kill!"

The two Puppets moved simultaneously, their sword and saber striking together to form two terrifying metal storms that ground toward Lu Yuan.

If it were an ordinary Void Immortal Early Stage facing these two fearless and perfectly coordinated Puppets, they would likely be flustered.

But before the current Lu Yuan, these two Puppets were simply no match.

"Suppress."

Lu Yuan gave a light shout, and the myriad things mother qi cauldron appeared out of thin air.

"Clang—"

The great cauldron inverted itself, and an irresistible suppressive force instantly enveloped the two Puppets.

Those two seemingly fierce metal storms dissipated instantly under the suppression of the myriad things mother qi.

The two Puppets were even more unable to move, emitting mechanical grinding sounds.

"Collect."

Lu Yuan waved his large sleeve, directly pulling these two Puppets into the internal space of the myriad things mother qi cauldron and casually cutting off their Divine Sense connection with their master.

...

Inside the Inheritance Grand Hall.

An old man dressed in a fiery red Daoist robe, with hair and beard all red, was focusing intently on spouting flames at a metal fragment floating in mid-air.

This person was the Artifact Refining Great Grandmaster of the Void Immortal Middle Stage, Daoist Bai Lian.

He was currently undergoing Old Man Miesheng's first Legacy trial—melting a fragment of the other shore heavenly boat.

Although this fragment was only palm-sized, the material was outrageously hard and even contained a trace of immortal characteristics.

Daoist Bai Lian had already used his lifebound exotic fire, the 'Glazed Golden Flame,' to scorch it for a full three hours, yet the fragment was still only slightly red, with no signs of softening.

"Damn it! What kind of material is this? Why is it so difficult to refine?"

Daoist Bai Lian was anxious, and fine beads of sweat seeped from his forehead.
