261: It's even more real than a guinea fowl!

At this moment, within a palace, dao rhyme flowed.

Crackle, crackle.

Lightning danced, like baring fangs and brandishing claws, demonic dragons surrounded the White-robed Figure sitting cross-legged in the center of the great hall, seemingly ready to devour and destroy her at any moment.

However, every time these lightning dragons tried to approach her, they were severed by an incomparably pure Sword Intent, transforming into specks of lightning.

"Finally, ah!!"

"I have finally forged my dao palace!!!"

Jiang Churan opened her large eyes and gazed at the surrounding lightning, feeling so excited she wanted to cry.

This was the first time since she began to Cultivate that she felt joy after a Breakthrough, not for any other reason, but simply to be able to eat a full meal!!

She had never Cultivated as seriously as she had in these past three days; she almost forgot who she was!

"If you had been this diligent in the past, you wouldn't have ended up in the state of Reincarnation..." the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit said softly in her mind, a hint of shock in its eyes.

Truth be told, she knew Jiang Churan's talent was excellent, a Prodigy of the sword path rare throughout the ages, possessing the Indestructible Sword Body and the Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart—two divine objects that Sword Cultivators dreamt of!

Yet all these years, she had never truly watched Jiang Churan Cultivate, so she had no idea how terrifying the speed of Cultivation could be when possessing both.

Now she roughly understood!

Three days!

Without relying on any external force, she had stepped from the Great Perfection of Spirit Transformation into the Void Return Realm, and had even managed to forge the Immortal palace that the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit had passed on to her. Although she had the experience of a past life, this speed still forced the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit to feel shocked.

You must know!

This Nine Tribulations World-Extinguishing Sword Palace was created solely by its master, containing the Nine Tribulations Sword Intent. Even with the experience of a past life, the difficulty of reforging it was still exaggerated!

Jiang Churan seemed not to hear, staring straight ahead at a spot three inches away. As the lightning around her body gradually faded, a seven-colored dao palace made entirely of glazed glass slowly rose. This dao palace resembled a divine sword and had thirty levels, with each level having an ancient symbol formed by a small black sword slowly rotating.

One level, one sword dao; the Nine Tribulations Sword was the treasure that guarded this dao palace!

Inside the dao palace, shocking scenes were evolving: one sword strike, and Immortals fell like rain; another sword strike, and worlds were born and destroyed...

"This girl only Cultivates seriously when using this method. Taking him as her Senior Brother was indeed a wise choice..." the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit murmured in its heart.

"Sword Mother, I did it!"

"I'm so tired!"

"Now Senior Brother won't refuse to give me food, right!" Jiang Churan shouted in her mind, revealing a weary expression.

She had not wasted a single moment in these three days. After struggling with herself, Jiang Churan had hardened her heart and Cultivated, forgetting to eat and sleep!

"This... is hard to say," the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit replied softly, though a hint of gravity appeared in its eyes.

Did he really discover my existence? If I see him, I must test him! For the past few days, apart from monitoring Jiang Churan's Cultivation, the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit had spent all its time pondering this question.

She could not understand Shen Nian; this person was too monstrous!

Even with her experience, she could not find anyone more exaggerated than Shen Nian!

Therefore, she could not be certain what the other party would do.

"Ah!"

Jiang Churan immediately felt as if the sky had collapsed, feeling terribly upset.

"Sword Mother, please help me. As long as you help me, I will listen to you from now on and promise to Cultivate properly!" Jiang Churan pleaded in her mind. In her understanding, the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit was almost omnipotent.

It could even manage her Reincarnation, so what else could it not do?

"Really?"

"Truer than a Pearl Chicken!" Jiang Churan said with extreme firmness.

"Then promise me that you will prioritize Awakening the Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart first!" the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit said.

Compared to the improvement of her Realm, she cared more about the Awakening of Jiang Churan's Sword Heart. If the Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart were fully awakened, Jiang Churan's talent would elevate by an entire grade.

Any sword dao could be easily comprehended before her!

This was the most important thing!

In her past life, Jiang Churan was just a hair's breadth away from fully Awakening her Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart, but she unexpectedly encountered that prince of the Divine Dynasty, which led to failure at the last moment!

Otherwise, Jiang Churan might not have perished!

"Fine, I promise!" Jiang Churan replied in her mind with a clang.

The Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit pondered for a moment and said: "Like this, in a while, have that little girl call your Senior Brother over, and then you tell your Senior Brother that the Cultivation Technique you are practicing is extremely special and requires Awakening the Sword Heart. You cannot be within this Sumeru Realm; you must feel the true Dao between heaven and earth..."

"In this way, you can go out. As long as you leave the Shen Family, there are plenty of ways to get food..."

What she said was actually correct; the Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart did indeed need to comprehend the Great Dao of heaven and earth to awaken.

However, the Great Dao of this Fourth Star Domain was clearly damaged, and the difficulty had increased several times over. If she remained in this Shen Family Sumeru Realm, she didn't know how long it would take.

"Will this work?" Jiang Churan asked skeptically.

"Your Senior Brother has demands of you, presumably hoping you will become stronger. At that time, reveal a trace of your Sword Heart power, then show him the Awakening method I painstakingly researched. Since he won't understand it but will know it is real, he will naturally retreat..." the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit said, its eyes flashing with wisdom as it planned.

Relying on its unique understanding of the sword path, it had once created a Sword Heart Awakening technique for Jiang Churan, which involved sword dao that reached the truth of Sword Intent and Law. Even if Shen Nian was a Prodigy, it was absolutely impossible for him to see through it.

Even if Shen Nian was, as she guessed, the Reincarnation of some great figure, he still wouldn't be able to understand it!

In this Universe, the possessor of a Seven-Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart is rarely seen in billions of years, let alone the technique to awaken the Sword Heart.

Only the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit, which is itself a sword, could comprehend some of it through Jiang Churan's constant Awakening back then. On this point, the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit was incomparably confident!

The next second, a jade ring appeared in Jiang Churan's hand. It was engraved with many symbols, not characters. Each symbol looked very ordinary, but if one could truly comprehend the true meaning within, they would discover how profound and difficult to understand the sword dao truth contained in each symbol was.

"Alright!"

Jiang Churan immediately revealed an excited smile.

Finally!

She could eat a good meal!

She did not doubt the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit's words; for so long, Sword Mother had never failed!

At this moment, terrifying Sword Intent filled every corner of the great hall. Mu Wanqing, who was not far away, watched with cold sweat streaming down.

"What kind of dao palace is this... How can it be in the shape of a sword? This... what a terrifying aura..."

"In three days, how could she enter the Void Return Realm so quickly? This... is too monstrous!"

Mu Wanqing looked at Jiang Churan, feeling incomparably shocked. She now understood a little why she could become the master's Junior Sister, and why the Great Evolution Sword Sect and those two great sword experts wanted to fight over her.

With this talent, if she hadn't already become Shen Nian's maid, she would have wanted to poach her for the Mu Family!

She did not doubt for a second that Jiang Churan's future achievements would undoubtedly make her a great sword expert!!

Just at this moment, "Withdraw!" Jiang Churan shouted softly, retracting the Nine Tribulations World-Extinguishing Immortal Palace into her body, and then immediately rushed excitedly toward Mu Wanqing.

"Miss Mu, hurry and tell my Senior Brother that I have reached the Void Return Realm and he can return my things to me!!"
