183: Killing Immortals

The mysterious woman smiled faintly.

"Lu Xingchen? Your name is quite handsome, but your strength is a bit lacking. However, since the immortal slaying sword chose you, it means you must have something extraordinary."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen's heart trembled.

immortal slaying sword?

Is that the name of this white longsword?

How domineering!

In this world, how many dare to claim they possess the power to slay immortals?

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "So this sword is named Immortal Slaying. What a domineering name! May I ask Senior your name?"

The mysterious woman chuckled, "My name is Xiao Yuxin."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen's heart trembled once more.

"Xiao Yuxin? The Human Race's fourth War God, and the only female among the War Gods! You're not *that* Xiao Yuxin, are you?"

The mysterious woman chuckled, "It is indeed I."

Lu Xingchen cupped his hands and bowed again, saying in a deep voice, "Greetings, War God His Excellency! Rumor has it that you died in battle at Demon-Rejecting Pass. How is it that you appear here now?"

Xiao Yuxin chuckled, "Nothing wrong with that. I did indeed die. This is merely a Soul Imprint of mine, specially prepared for a fated person like you."

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

Xiao Yuxin smiled, "This sword is named Immortal Slaying. It is a Divine Artifact, its grade even surpassing a heaven-rank spirit tool. It was by relying on it that I was able to cut down a Demon Race Demon Saint at Demon-Rejecting Pass and earn the title of War God."

"However, the Demon Race's foundation was too profound, and they outnumbered me, severely wounding me. Before my death, I placed a Seal on the immortal slaying sword and entrusted it to my sword attendant, instructing him to find the immortal slaying sword's next master."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was greatly astonished: "Divine Artifact! Holy cow, that's incredible!"

Xiao Yuxin smiled, "It has to be incredible; I am a War God after all! Since you drew the immortal slaying sword, you are its next master. Lu Xingchen, cherish it well, and use the immortal slaying sword to carve a bloody path for the Human Race!"

Lu Xingchen nodded heavily, "Thank you, War God His Excellency, for bestowing this sword! I will certainly make good use of this Sharp Weapon!"

Xiao Yuxin chuckled, "I didn't bestow a sword. As I said, the immortal slaying sword chose you. To prevent the immortal slaying sword from falling into evil hands, I placed three Seals on it. Now I will tell you the method to unseal it."

"Each time you remove a Seal, the quality of the immortal slaying sword will increase by one major tier."

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "No wonder its grade is only profound grade high-rank; it was sealed. So, if I remove the first Seal, its grade can reach earth rank high grade?"

Xiao Yuxin nodded slightly, "That's right. However, you must be cautious. The immortal slaying sword contains Immortal Slaying Power, which can obliterate life force. If your strength is insufficient, you will suffer a backlash, understand?"

Lu Xingchen nodded heavily, "Junior has noted it!"

Xiao Yuxin walked up to Lu Xingchen, extended her right hand, and touched his forehead with her index finger. The method to unseal it then appeared in his mind.

Xiao Yuxin said with a smile, "Alright, my mission is complete. This Soul Imprint should also dissipate. Lu Xingchen, if you have the chance in the future, go to Demon-Rejecting Pass. There is another Soul Imprint I left there, which records information related to the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation."

Lu Xingchen was a little bewildered.

"Immortal Slaying Sword Formation? More powerful than the immortal slaying sword?"

Xiao Yuxin nodded slightly, "That's right. The so-called four immortal slaying swords are the four Divine Artifacts: Immortal Slaying, Trapping Immortal, Severing Immortal, and Immortal Slaying. If one day you can gather the four immortal slaying swords and obtain the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, it might unleash power capable of killing deities."

Lu Xingchen was greatly shocked.

"Killing deities? That incredible?"

Xiao Yuxin chuckled, "Otherwise, how do you think its name came about?"

Lu Xingchen rubbed his palms and said in a deep voice, "Then where are the other three swords?"

Xiao Yuxin smiled, "I don't know either. I only obtained the immortal slaying sword. The other three swords have never appeared. That will be up to you. Goodbye, Lu Xingchen!"

As her voice fell, Xiao Yuxin's figure gradually faded until it completely vanished between heaven and earth.

This Soul Imprint left by the Human Race's fourth War God finally dissipated.

Lu Xingchen also regained control of his sea of soul.

Returning to the outside world, Lu Xingchen put away the immortal slaying sword and walked out of the Sect's treasure vault.

Gu Chen smiled at him, "How was it? Did you gain anything?"

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "I gained a lot. Thank you, Sect Master, for giving me this opportunity!"

Gu Chen chuckled, "You are the face of my Cangxuan Sect; this is what you deserve!"

After Dai Jinghai and Chen Zhengyu had chosen their treasures, Gu Chen closed the Sect's treasure vault and said to the three, "Alright, I can only help you this much. Go back and prepare. Three days from now, you will go to the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm with the two Saints!"

"Understood!" the three replied in unison.

Upon returning to his Immortal Cave, Lu Xingchen took out the immortal slaying sword and examined it closely.

Although its grade was only profound grade high-rank due to the Seal, the power it unleashed was already comparable to an earth rank low grade Spiritual Artifact.

In future encounters with enemies, this immortal slaying sword would become a great aid!

If just one immortal slaying sword was so powerful, how strong would it be if all four immortal slaying swords were gathered?

It seems he would have to find an opportunity to visit Demon-Rejecting Pass in the future!

Lu Xingchen then put away the immortal slaying sword and opened the System Mall.

Spending one million experience points, he purchased the Pill Formula for sixth-grade rejuvenation pill and qi recovery pill.

These two Medicinal Pills were among the best-selling and most popular everywhere.

Because, in battle, injuries and qi exhaustion were common occurrences.

Over the next three days, Lu Xingchen secluded himself in his Immortal Cave, refining dozens of sixth-grade rejuvenation pill and qi recovery pill.

Three days later, he arrived at the discussion Plaza as agreed.

Sect Master Gu Chen and the two Saints were already waiting there.

Lin Yuan smiled at Lu Xingchen, "Junior Brother Lu, your growth speed is truly astonishing. You can now hold your own for the Cangxuan Sect. I had some friction with you before because of Ye Chen's matter, and I hope you can let bygones be bygones and cooperate fully with me. For the upcoming trip to the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm, I greatly need your strength."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "Senior Brother Lin Yuan, you jest. I never took Ye Chen's matter to heart. Once we enter the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm, I will certainly follow your instructions."

With that, Lu Xingchen extended his right hand to Lin Yuan, and the two shook hands lightly.

Seeing this, Yun Li breathed a sigh of relief.

One was her Senior Brother who had always helped her, and the other was a close friend. Seeing them shake hands and make peace, Yun Li felt a little joyful.

But what she didn't know was that both were merely speaking polite words.

They had long regarded each other as mortal enemies, and a battle was inevitable on this trip to the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm!
