669: Parting with Luo Li

"Senior, my Senior Brother is unparalleled throughout eternity. Even compared to the Demon Gods nurtured in Chaos, he is no less, perhaps even superior."

"Junior, if I may say something disrespectful, my Senior Brother's Innate talent far surpasses your Revered Master's, and his future achievements will certainly exceed your Revered Master's."

"For Senior to follow my Senior Brother is an unparalleled great Opportunity. Senior, please do not lose sight of the bigger picture..."

Luo Li spared no effort in recommending Gu Qing, her expression slightly anxious.

Although she knew that even if the bronze sword's Spirit did not choose Gu Qing, they would not be in danger.

After all, she knew how afraid of death Gu Qing was; without a way to deal with the bronze sword, he would have probably run away long ago.

Moreover, Gu Qing had even escaped from Tian Xu.

A mere Celestial-grade Spirit could not possibly harm Gu Qing.

However, the bronze sword was an Innate Supreme Treasure, containing a powerful Sword Dao Legacy, and it even possessed a Celestial-grade Spirit.

If he could gain the bronze sword's recognition, it would be a great Opportunity, and Gu Qing's strength and foundation would surely advance further.

"Junior Sister." Gu Qing pulled her into his arms, shaking his head at her, signaling her to calm down.

He didn't care whether the bronze sword's Spirit was willing to acknowledge him as its Revered Master; in the end, the bronze sword would belong to him anyway.

Looking at her anxious expression, Gu Qing felt touched.

Luo Li was indeed a malicious villainess, but for him, wasn't she also a virtuous wife?

"What you said makes sense; my Revered Master is indeed inferior to him."

"But my Revered Master is a Legacy Disciple of the Star Dao Lineage, and Ye Chen Xiao is also very much in line with my Revered Master's Legacy."

The bronze sword's Spirit hesitated repeatedly but still chose Ye Chen Xiao.

Although Ye Chen Xiao was inferior to Gu Qing in every aspect, if it had a choice, it could not let its Revered Master's Legacy choose a Legacy Disciple from another Dao Lineage.

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior. This Junior will not disappoint your high expectations!"

Ye Chen Xiao never expected that he and the bronze sword's Revered Master had such a connection.

No wonder the bronze sword didn't choose Gu Qing.

Ye Chen Xiao's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled. His heart was ecstatic, the corners of his mouth turned up wildly, and his eyes provocatively looked at Gu Qing and Luo Li.

The time for a counter-kill had arrived.

Ye Chen Xiao's gaze gradually turned cold, looking at Gu Qing as if he were looking at a dead man.

Having gained the bronze sword's recognition, he wouldn't need the Spirit to act; he could kill the two of them himself.

Because he also had the "Magic Treasure Fusion" secret art.

Once he fused with the bronze sword Magic Treasure, his Realm would definitely skyrocket to the Ninth Realm, and he might even be able to call upon a trace of Celestial power.

"Heh, a petty person getting his way." Gu Qing scoffed with disdain.

"The victor is king, the loser is a bandit."

Ye Chen Xiao stepped in front of the bronze sword, hands clasped behind his back, looking down from above, and said indifferently.

"Yu Qing, Luo Li, you have Supreme Treasures by your side, and I am inferior to you, but now, I also have a Supreme Treasure by my side. It's still uncertain who will win."

"Is that so?"

"Then why aren't you making a move? Is it because you don't have the strength?" Gu Qing looked as if he was watching a clown putting on a self-directed show.

Ye Chen Xiao frowned, and a sudden unease rose in his heart.

The bronze sword's Spirit had already chosen him, so why wasn't Gu Qing afraid at all?

Could it be that Gu Qing also possessed a Celestial-grade Spirit?

Impossible.

Celestial-grade Spirits are extremely rare in the world, and each one is a foundational asset of a sect. Gu Qing couldn't possibly possess one.

"Godfather, it's up to you." Gu Qing called out to You Meng.

"Alright, it's just a Spirit."

You Meng was also a Spirit, but its main body was a Chaos Supreme Treasure, not something a mere Innate Spirit Treasure could compare to.

Its Divine Thought extended, and like grabbing a chick, it took away the bronze sword.

The bronze sword's Spirit: "..."

It knew Gu Qing had a trump card; if he didn't, Gu Qing would certainly not dare to speak so arrogantly and try to refine it.

However, it thought at most Gu Qing also had a Celestial-grade Spirit.

As a Celestial-grade Spirit, why would it fear a fight?

It was a Sword Dao Spirit specializing in killing, its combat power far exceeding those of the same rank, and it had absolute confidence in defeating its opponent.

But it never expected that the other party was a Dominator Divine-Grade Spirit.

That was the most top-tier existence in the entire Origin Continent, and even the boundless Chaos, besides the Dao Ancestor.

How could it appear on a Saint?

Moreover, how terrifying must the other party's main body be?

A top-tier Chaos Spirit Treasure?

Or a Chaos Supreme Treasure?

No matter what kind of existence it was, it was not something it could afford to provoke: "Senior, spare my life..."

Its words were not finished when its spiritual body was stripped away by an unparalleled great power, its intelligence erased, and it was sealed.

As for the sword Spirit's Legacy, it didn't care for it, and neither did Gu Qing.

After refining the Spirit's Origin, Gu Qing could condense an unparalleled Sword Dao Divine Ability that perfectly matched his own Dao.

"Calling me Senior is useless. The Opportunity was given to you, but you didn't seize it."

Gu Qing placed it in a jade box and placed a Restriction on it.

As for the bronze sword, after losing its Spirit, it was just an Innate Supreme Treasure, comparable to an Eleventh-tier Dao Artifact.

Gu Qing had no intention of using it and directly threw it into the Immeasurable Space.

"As expected..." Luo Li's eyes widened in shock. Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still astonished by You Meng's methods.

She couldn't imagine what kind of existence could so easily resolve a Celestial-grade Spirit.

Perhaps this was Gu Qing's true trump card for escaping from Tian Xu.

Ye Chen Xiao: "..."

Senior, Senior, are you alright, Senior?

Ye Chen Xiao's pupils slowly constricted, and fear spread in his heart.

What level of power was that which appeared just now?

Why did the bronze sword's Spirit have no power to resist at all?

"Escape!"

Ye Chen Xiao had no time to think; escaping was paramount.

This time, he directly crushed a jade talisman, choosing to leave the Immeasurable Secret Realm early.

Although the Immeasurable Secret Realm contained countless great Opportunities and great fortunes, even Innate Supreme Treasures and Heavenly Dao-level treasures.

However, Gu Qing was simply too strange.

He could even silently deal with a Celestial-grade Spirit and also possessed the Chaos Starlight Escape.

If he didn't leave now, he might even lose his life here.

"What kind of jade talisman is that?"

Gu Qing's heart sank. This jade talisman could actually take Ye Chen Xiao out of the Immeasurable Secret Realm.

"It's a jade talisman specially refined by a Chaos Dominator God for the Immeasurable Secret Realm. I didn't expect him to have one," Luo Li explained.

Such a jade talisman was not difficult to refine; the difficulty lay in how to ask a Chaos Dominator God to refine it.

As far as she knew, Star Mother only refined one batch, a total of nine, and they had already been used up.

Just like the Ling Xu Sect, Jun Tian Hall, God of War Palace, and Xuan Nu Palace.

"It seems he and Revered Master are not ordinary."

Gu Qing frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "I need to go to the Star God Sect to deal with him. I won't be accompanying you on further training."

"Senior Brother, the Immeasurable Secret Realm has countless Opportunities. Do you really have to leave?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Li's beautiful eyes showed an expression of disbelief.

She didn't understand. Since he had already obtained the bronze sword, would Gu Qing really give up the Immeasurable Secret Realm just to pursue and kill Ye Chen Xiao?

"I can no longer sense any Opportunities in the Immeasurable Secret Realm."

Gu Qing shook his head. Perhaps he had gained too much.

First, the Primordial Heaven-Opening Banner, then the Myriad Tribulation Fruit, Myriad Tribulation Mother Gold, Heavenly Cauldron, and many top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures.

He had gained too much; it was impossible for the Opportunities of the Immeasurable Secret Realm to be monopolized by him alone.

In fact, after drifting in the Immeasurable World Sea for a thousand years without encountering an isolated island, and instead appearing on the dam unknowingly, Gu Qing had a premonition.

Furthermore, even if there were still Opportunities, Gu Qing planned to leave.

Ye Chen Xiao was a protagonist with a System; the longer he delayed, the greater the variables would be.

He didn't want to end up having his home stolen by Ye Chen Xiao while searching for treasures.

Besides, he didn't lack Opportunities for Breakthrough.

The bronze sword's Spirit and the Dragon Pearl should be enough for him to Break through to the Celestial Realm.
