144: Sword Spirit and Monument Spirit

The vast Star Domain was eerily silent.

Only the Sword Intent and sword marks spread across the entire Star Domain spoke of the terrifying battle that had taken place here.

In this battle, dozens of Immortal Emperors perished.

It was enough to shock half of the Taichu Ancient Realm.

Wu Ning collected all the spoils of war, and with a wave of his hand, all the Immortal Emperor bodies turned into dust.

He appeared above the shattered Sword Inquiry Ancient City in one step, and his vast Divine Sense enveloped it.

Sword Inquiry Ancient City was boundless, majestic, and vast; even though it was shattered, each fragment was still extremely large, and a large number of ancient city residents still survived.

At this moment, countless people looked at Wu Ning in terror.

His Divine Sense swept over, and a cold light flashed in his eyes; all the surviving members of the Great Zhou Immortal Clan and Myriad Sword Immortal Sect were instantly obliterated.

Then, he stretched out his hand and grabbed towards the Immortal Sects of the two major forces, and two incredibly sturdy treasuries were clutched in his hand.

Wu Ning directly took them.

"Young Master."

At this moment, Water Cloud Immortal Emperor flew over with Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai, looking at him as if he were a monster.

The strength Wu Ning had just displayed far exceeded his imagination.

Others might not know, but he knew that this incredibly young Young Master was only a few hundred years old!

To be so terrifying at a few hundred years old, what kind of monster was this?

"Master!"

Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai's eyes were filled with adoration.

In their eyes, their Master was invincible!

Wu Ning smiled faintly, then turned back and reached for the Great Firmament Sword Stele.

With so many Immortal Emperors gone, this sword stele naturally couldn't be let go.

The Great Firmament Sword Stele did not reject him; it cooperated by shrinking into a palm-sized sword token, which fell into Wu Ning's hand.

"Alright, let's go."

"Yes!"

Water Cloud Immortal Emperor quickly took out the golden ancient ship.

The group quickly disappeared into the vast Star Domain.

After a long time.

The surviving residents of Sword Inquiry Ancient City finally dared to breathe a sigh of relief, but the fear in their eyes had not yet completely dissipated.

Subsequently, many powerhouses began to cross the Star Domain, fleeing to other parts of the Immortal Realm.

Sword Inquiry Ancient City had become a ruin, and there was no point in staying any longer.

Moreover, this place had now become a place of trouble, and they dared not stay any longer.

...

On the golden ancient boat.

Wu Ning was examining the Great Luo Dao Sword and the Great Firmament Sword Stele.

Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai sat beside Wu Ning, while Water Cloud Immortal Emperor was manipulating the ancient boat.

The sword and the stele flew in the air, emitting profound Sword Intent.

"You two should be able to speak, right?"

It was extremely difficult for High Grade Magic Treasures and Dao Artifacts to give birth to artifact spirits, but this sword and stele were both extraordinary and had undergone a long period of time, having already developed sentience.

Whoosh!

A blue light flew out from the Great Luo Dao Sword, transforming into a small boy in green clothes.

He had a delicate appearance and a single cowlick on his head.

The Great Firmament Sword Stele emitted a layer of white light, slowly forming a non-human, non-beast phantom.

"Kid, your Sword Intent has gained my approval. You are now my Master."

The boy in green clothes slightly raised his head, looking proudly at Wu Ning.

His gaze seemed to say, it is your honor to be acknowledged by this sword.

Wu Ning chuckled, not bothering to argue with an artifact spirit.

The Great Firmament Sword Stele's artifact spirit was much more polite: "Young Master, we were both left by the Great Luo Sword Venerable, waiting for a fated person."

"Young Master should be our fated person."

"Oh?" Wu Ning raised an eyebrow, immediately becoming interested, "How are you so sure that I am your fated person?"

The sword stele's artifact spirit said: "Because Young Master, your Sword Intent is extremely profound, even we cannot see through it, so you must be the fated person!"

Wu Ning's mouth twitched; he thought there was some deeper reason, but it turned out to be just this...

Well, he had overthought it.

"Kid, although your Dao of the Sword attainment is not bad, it is far inferior to the Great Luo Sword Venerable."

"But you don't need to be discouraged. With this sword spirit personally guiding you in the future, your talent is not bad, and you might even surpass the Great Luo Sword Venerable in the future."

The Great Luo Sword Spirit said with an arrogant expression.

"Do you think you're very impressive? Look at this, what is it?"

Wu Ning glanced at him, and a crimson ancient sword suddenly appeared in his hand.

This guy was too arrogant; he needed to be suppressed a bit.

"This, this..."

The Great Luo Sword Spirit's eyes widened instantly, staring in horror at the rebirth sword in Wu Ning's hand.

As a sword spirit, he could naturally easily sense the terror of the rebirth sword.

The Great Luo Dao Sword was only a Low Grade Dao Artifact, while the rebirth sword was a High Grade Dao Artifact, a full two grades higher. The difference between them could not even be described as a world apart.

"This is a High Grade Dao Sword! You... how do you have this level of Dao Sword?"

The Great Luo Sword Spirit was incredibly shocked.

A High Grade Dao Sword, even the Great Luo Sword Venerable didn't have a Dao Sword of this grade. How could a mere Immortal Emperor Realm boy have one?

Back then, the Great Luo Sword Venerable obtained a High Grade Dao Sword, and then he was abandoned.

He couldn't even compare to a High Grade Dao Sword, let alone a High Grade Dao Sword.

Wu Ning smiled faintly, "That's not for you to worry about."

"Being a person..."

"Uh, being a sword spirit, you need to be more humble. Don't think a Low Grade Dao Sword is amazing; there are many things in the world much more powerful than you."

Wu Ning said earnestly.

"Yes... Master!"

The Great Luo Sword Spirit immediately wilted.

With a High Grade Dao Sword before him, his arrogance was gone.

He originally thought he was just an Immortal Emperor Realm boy with some strength, but he didn't expect him to be a super rich person, actually possessing even a High Grade Dao Sword!

The sword stele's artifact spirit was also shocked.

To possess a High Grade Dao Sword at the Immortal Emperor Realm, he was either a fated person or had an incredibly terrifying background.

He became even more convinced in his heart that Wu Ning was the fated person.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Wu Ning showed a satisfied smile and put away the rebirth sword.

"Very well, you two will follow this Young Master from now on."

Afterward, Wu Ning chatted with them about the Great Luo Sword Venerable.

This Great Luo Sword Venerable was an ancient figure in the Taichu Ancient Realm.

This person was originally a Disciple of a top-tier force, but later, his Dao lineage's enemies were destroyed, and the Great Luo Sword Venerable fortunately escaped. He then traveled the Immortal Realm, experienced countless hardships, and finally grew into a Dao Venerable powerhouse.

The Great Luo Sword Venerable's experience was legendary, magnificent, and colorful.

A hint of longing appeared in Wu Ning's eyes.

Compared to him, his own experience was simply ordinary, without any twists and turns.

"Young Master, Holy Flame Ancient Star has arrived."

Not long after, Water Cloud Immortal Emperor's voice suddenly came over.

"It arrived so quickly..."

Wu Ning immediately stood up and looked out of the ancient ship.

An extremely vast ancient star appeared in his line of sight.

This ancient star was faintly reddish, and even from an extremely distant distance, one could feel a hint of heat emanating from it.

Boom!

Suddenly, an extremely massive bronze warship drilled out of the Void Realm, appearing in another direction of the Holy Flame Ancient Star.
