410: Lie Tianxiong emerges from the pass

The moment the war spear took shape, a pure, cold, and top-tier killing edge that made even the Divine Soul feel a stinging pain emerged.

From the blade of the spear, it suddenly awakened and soared into the sky, then retracted entirely into the profound dark patterns on the spear's body, emitting bursts of low and joyful humming.

It was no longer that piece of broken weapon filled with death and resentment, but a killing divine weapon reborn through supreme means, with the Origin of the malevolent weapon as its Foundation!

Gu Changge sensed it and nodded slightly. "The artifact spirit was annihilated and the Materials were incomplete, but the Foundation was acceptable. I have helped you re-polish it; it can currently be ranked as a quasi-emperor weapon."

As he spoke, he casually handed the transformed war spear back to the dumbfounded Xuan Yangzi.

Xuan Yangzi took it subconsciously.

A quasi-emperor weapon!

I, Xuan Yangzi, also have a quasi-emperor weapon?!

Immense joy instantly crushed his reason. Xuan Yangzi held this pitch-black combat weapon, his hands trembling slightly, his eyes wide, and the corners of his mouth curling uncontrollably. He almost laughed out loud on the spot.

Images had already begun to surface uncontrollably in his mind:

One day, when he went to the Azure Cloud Secret Realm, he would casually reveal the quasi-emperor weapon and the Emperor Sutra in front of several Old Ancestors. Just thinking about the shocked and dumbfounded expressions on the Old Ancestors' faces felt exhilarating.

"Th-thank you, Junior Brother Changge!"

Xuan Yangzi hugged the quasi-emperor weapon tightly, his voice slightly distorted with excitement. He bowed deeply to Gu Changge, the smile on his face no longer suppressible, as radiant as a child who had received a new toy.

At the peak of Zizhu Peak, tranquility returned.

"System, sign in."

Gu Changge murmured in his heart, starting his daily mandatory task: signing in.

"Ding! Sign-in successful!

Congratulations to the host for obtaining a cultivation reward of 10,000 years!"

Congratulations to the host for obtaining world origin x 10!"

Congratulations to the host for obtaining Invincible Experience Card x 10!"

The System notification sounds rang out one after another. Gu Changge's gaze swept past the cultivation entry and fixed on the last two items.

"world origin and Invincible Experience Cards? What are these?"

With a slight thought, he looked at the reward descriptions.

world origin is the most core and fundamental aggregate of Laws and energy of a world, containing the secrets of creation and return to the void.

It can repair a great world on the brink of shattering or one with damaged Origins, allowing it to regain vitality and stabilize the universe.

It can also be used to nourish and enhance the Spiritual Qi concentration, Law strength, and the upper limit of potential for living beings in a world.

"Repairing the world, upgrading the world."

Gu Changge nodded slightly, already having a plan in mind.

In the Xuanhuang Great World, although the Origin was no longer leaking, the deficits and hidden injuries from tens of thousands of years still remained.

Although there were signs of recovery in the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and the Laws were manifesting actively, the Foundation was far from being restored to its peak.

This world origin came at exactly the right time.

"I'll find a suitable opportunity to use one, test the effect, and see exactly how much benefit it can bring to this world."

He pondered secretly, then turned his gaze to the Invincible Experience Cards.

"Invincible Experience Card: After activating each card, one can obtain invincible combat power, not limited to any location, with a duration of 1 day."

Seeing this description, Gu Changge was first stunned, then the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably, finally turning into a hearty and unrestrained smile.

"Good stuff, truly good stuff!"

He whispered, his tone carrying unconcealed joy.

No matter how high one's cultivation is, one still fears accidents.

On the path of cultivation, who can guarantee they will never encounter force majeure?

But with this 'Invincible Experience Card,' it was completely different.

Within one day, invincible anywhere!

This meant an absolute trump card, meaning that when facing any danger that exceeded expectations or his own limits, he had an ultimate method to flip the table and be unreasonable!

A sense of security—didn't it just arrive?

"The System is quite generous this time."

Gu Changge happily put away the newly acquired world origin and Invincible Experience Cards.

He let out a soft breath, and his mind settled down.

However, the confidence stemming from the Invincible Experience Cards made his entire state of mind appear even more composed and unfathomable.

Beside him, Xuan Yangzi was still immersed in the ecstasy of obtaining a quasi-emperor weapon, holding the pitch-black war spear as if he couldn't bear to let go, occasionally letting out a silly giggle.

Deep within the Burning Heaven Palace, in the Forbidden Ground where the Sect Master was in seclusion.

The stone chamber, where a scorching aura had permeated for months, was now like a volcano about to erupt.

Lie Tianxiong, sitting cross-legged in the center of the Spirit Gathering Grand Array, had crimson spiritual power swirling around him like raging waves, which then suddenly retracted, sinking entirely into his body.

"Buzz—!"

A low hum echoed from within his body, causing the floor of the stone chamber to vibrate slightly.

His tightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open, and two beams of substantial light shot out, scorching two shallow pits into the hard stone wall.

A violent, blazing, and oppressive King Realm pressure was released without reservation, instantly filling the entire stone chamber, making even the air seem to burn and wail.

"Hahahaha! King Realm! It's done! This seat has finally succeeded!"

"It was not in vain that this seat consumed a massive amount of resources to activate the Sect's ultimate Legacy. Is this the King Realm? It is indeed powerful."

Lie Tianxiong stood up and laughed wildly.

His laughter was thick like thunder, repeatedly echoing in the enclosed stone chamber, shaking loose debris down.

He clenched his fists tightly, feeling the surging, boundless power within him that far surpassed before. A sense of pride that looked down upon the world and a flame of revenge burned fiercely in his chest.

"The scum of Myriad Law Pavilion! And those rats who launched sneak attacks and hid their heads! Just you wait for this seat! The humiliation of the past shall be repaid a hundredfold!"

Full of high spirits, he strode toward the tightly closed stone door.

The feelings of frustration, anger, and forbearance from before his seclusion had been completely dispelled by his current powerful strength, replaced by boundless confidence and a Battle Intent eager to be vented.

The heavy stone door slowly opened amidst a rumble.

Outside the door, the Second Elder, who had already sensed the movement and was waiting respectfully, immediately bowed. His voice was steady, yet tinged with the right amount of excitement and awe.

"Congratulations to the Palace Master! Your divine art has reached Major Achievement, and you have emerged from seclusion! The revival of our Burning Heaven Palace is imminent, and the Palace Master's Divine Might will surely shake Xuan Province once again!"

Lie Tianxiong walked out with a powerful stride, his gaze like lightning. He swept his eyes over the respectful Li Qingfeng, and then seemed to pierce through the palace walls to survey the entire Burning Heaven Palace.

His keen Divine Sense spread slightly, and he noticed that the atmosphere in the palace seemed even more orderly than before he entered seclusion?

"Second Elder, during the time this seat was in seclusion, how has it been for everyone in the palace?"

Lie Tianxiong asked in a deep voice.

The Second Elder looked up, a look of heartfelt gratification and a sigh of relief on his face.

"Reporting to the Palace Master, thanks to your great fortune, the entire Sect is in harmony and united in purpose! Following your arrangements before seclusion, we have maintained a low profile at all times.

The Elders have performed their duties faithfully, and the Disciples have been cultivating hard. Everything is in order, and everyone has been looking forward to the Palace Master's emergence to lead us in restoring our prestige!"

"Oh?"

Lie Tianxiong raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised by this answer.

"The Grand Elder, Third Elder, and Fourth Elder—they have also been behaving?"

The Second Elder's smile remained unchanged, his tone sincere.

"Palace Master is wise. Since you went into seclusion and entrusted this subordinate to temporarily manage palace affairs, the Elders have felt the weight of your trust and the Sect's responsibility. They have all set aside past grievances and worked together.

The Grand Elder has even stated publicly many times that everything must prioritize the Palace Master's orders and the Sect's overall situation, fully supporting your decisions.

Now our Burning Heaven Palace is as solid as a piece of iron, only waiting for the Palace Master's command!"
