"This sword, like you, has immense potential." Beside him, Jue Xian did not speak, but glancing at the sword in Su Changqing’s hand, seemed tempted, wanting to play with it. "Senior, would you like to see it?" Seeing this, Su Changqing smiled and with a casual wave, the Great Emperor’s weapon in his hand dropped in front of Jue Xian. Jue Xian was not pretentious and grasped the Great Emperor’s weapon. An overwhelming Sword Intent poured into it. In an instant, an incredibly violent force erupted from the Great Emperor’s weapon. Endless Sword Qi filled the sky and earth, as if one strike could destroy the continent. At the critical moment, Jue Xian retracted his Divine Technique, looked at the sword in his hand and praised: "This sword blends yin and yang, supported by myriad techniques, possessing extraordinary power." Jue Xian was extremely demanding in his requirements for a sword. First, it is not wanted if it is not of the dark element. Second, it is not wanted if it cannot bear his Sword Intent. Third, it is not wanted if it has low potential and no hope of advancing. Through endless eras, Jue Xian had acquired numerous imperial swords throughout the ages. But this newly born Great Emperor’s weapon was the most to his liking. "Has this sword been given a name?" Jue Xian gently stroked the long sword and spoke without lifting his head. Beside him, Xian Xian and the Sword Emperor both turned to look at Su Changqing upon hearing this. Su Changqing smiled, his eyes mysterious, and said: "This sword shall be called, the Immortal Slaying Sword Four!" As the words fell, both Jue Xian and Xian Xian were taken aback. "Immortal Slaying Sword Four?" Jue Xian smiled, "Such bold words, is this meant to capture all four of us brothers at once?" "Daring to name it Immortal Slaying..." Xian Xian shook his head and chuckled, "That’s quite the ambition." "Isn’t this name somewhat inappropriate?" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥 The Sword Emperor hesitated and said: "There is only one sword yet you call it the Immortal Slaying Sword Four." "Even if four sword spirits gather, the name seems overly deliberate." Su Changqing laughed at this, "Deliberate? These are four swords, where’s the deliberation!" After speaking, he looked at the Immortal Slaying Sword, his fingertips changing seals, softly shouting, The Immortal Slaying Sword let out a long cry, flew into the sky, its body alternately flashing black and white light. In a moment, the immense sword that once was, separated from the middle. Two swords were shrouded in holy radiance, two were enveloped in profound darkness. The originally gigantic Immortal Slaying Sword, now separated, each was the size of a normal long sword. "No wonder it required four pieces of Great Emperor Divine Gold, you had planned this all along?" The Sword Emperor looked at the four divine swords, amazed and said. Su Changqing heard this and smiled without speaking. Since it’s a Sword Dao imperial weapon, naturally it must be forged to be the strongest! And clearly, a Sword Dao imperial weapon blessed by sword spirits is unmatched under heaven. Therefore, he was creating not one sword, but four! These four, two bright and two dark, perfectly suit the preferences of the four sword spirits. The four great sword spirits, though of one body, each has its own consciousness. This way of coexisting is the same as with him and Entropy Annihilation. He understood well that, even with the same origin, the four of them were very reluctant to stay within one body. With consciousness, who wouldn’t want their own body? Why has the unity of the four great sword spirits never been achieved in such long years? First, differing ideologies, just like him and Entropy Annihilation. Second, each has its own consciousness, not wanting to be confined within the same body. Third, a person recognized by both swords of good and evil, practically does not exist. These three conditions are almost impossible to coexist. Yet Su Changqing was precisely the anomaly! Dark and Light, Salvation and Destruction, there is no more contradictory existence in this world than him. In other words, his existence could be acknowledged by both the swords of good and evil. Based on this condition, Su Changqing alleviated the last resistance in the sword spirits’ hearts! Then he would forge one! No attribute sword body that could be merged and recognized? Then he would merge with the laws of time and space, combining Pure World and Returning Ruin! Su Changqing dared to assert that nowhere under heaven is there a more suitable sword for the four great sword spirits than the Immortal Slaying Sword. With a sword body origin that matches one’s own, while also having an independent free sword form. What’s more noteworthy is that the Immortal Slaying Sword can unify the four swords, restoring the peak power of the four great sword spirits! Su Changqing’s ambition was never just an imperial weapon, but the four great sword spirits! He intended to, gather all four sword spirits into one, forge the strongest sword, the Immortal Slaying Sword! No one knew what Su Changqing was thinking in his heart. But at this moment, Trapping Immortal and Cutting Immortal, looking at the separating four swords, indeed couldn’t take their eyes away. Trapping Immortal’s expression held undisguisable excitement, "This sword... is simply tailor-made for us!" "It can combine the four into one, or separate into sword bodies, possessing freedom." "Moreover... the attributes of this sword body are all two bright and two dark..." At this moment, even the picky Cutting Immortal, his heart was pounding violently. The four major sword spirits never united, was it because they didn’t want to? Joking, who wouldn’t want to be at the pinnacle, overlooking the ages? But losing freedom, enduring the other two sword spirits of different paths, that price was too high. So much so that, even though they were about to engage in a decisive battle, they still didn’t want to unite into one. But now, the appearance of these Immortal Slaying Four Swords gave Cutting Immortal... the thought of unity. "Cutting Immortal..." Suddenly, Trapping Immortal, who was excited, seemed to recall something, his expression slightly changed. Cutting Immortal frowned slightly, looking at Trapping Immortal in confusion. "Do you remember the promise ’he’ once made to us?" Trapping Immortal looked at Su Changqing, his eyes enigmatic. Cutting Immortal was first shocked, then nodded, "Following him for ten thousand years, granting us a perfect sword body." "But he broke his word, perishing along with ’Cang’. " Trapping Immortal nodded upon hearing this, but his gaze still lingered on Su Changqing, "Do you recall his words before he died?" Cutting Immortal’s eyes blurred, seeming to sink into memories. That unimaginable ancient battlefield, dark and endless, corpses strewn everywhere. A great being dragging a terrifying presence in the darkness, walking towards the void. The four major sword spirits guarding the world, Immortal Slaying Sword shouted fiercely. "Yan, come back alive!" "Your promise to give us the perfect sword body remains unfulfilled!" The other three sword spirits watched the figures enter the void, all silent. That was their first master. Immortal Slaying, Killing Immortal, Trapping Immortal, Cutting Immortal, those names were also given by him. That person named ’Yan’, was an existence who made even the ’Ancient’ bow. He gradually walked toward the void, using everything he had to destroy the source of darkness. Hearing Immortal Slaying speak, his laughter echoed to the eight corners, "Just a mere sword body, someone will give it to you!" "Remember to say sorry for me, leaving this mess behind..." In the end, Yan’s words were unfinished, enveloped by endless darkness. That battle, the four sword spirits did not participate. But the terrifying aftermath shattered the myriad worlds, leaving only the Cangyan Continent. Cutting Immortal slowly returned to reality, his gaze, like Trapping Immortal’s, turned to Su Changqing. "Is he... the person Yan mentioned?" Cutting Immortal murmured in a sound transmission. He didn’t know what the so-called "mess" was. Nor did he understand what Yan’s final words meant. But the appearance of the Immortal Slaying Sword truly matched his idea of perfection. And Su Changqing’s entire legacy was excessively terrifying and eerie. All these made him have to suspect that the person Yan spoke of... had indeed appeared! Trapping Immortal didn’t reply because he didn’t know the answer either. Trapping Immortal stepped forward two steps, looked at Su Changqing, and directly asked: "Do you... recognize the Flame Emperor?" Su Changqing was somewhat unsettled by the gaze of Trapping Immortal and Cutting Immortal. Now upon hearing, he was even more stunned, perplexed: "Is there such a Great Emperor in the history of Cangyan Continent?" The existence of Flame Emperor dates too far back, even the Sword Emperor beside wrinkled his brows in deep thought, trying to recall which Great Emperor this was. Trapping Immortal and Cutting Immortal exchanged a glance, both seeing disappointment in each other’s eyes. They thought that brilliant person had returned. Cutting Immortal, unwilling, asked: "In your memory, is there really no existence of ’Yan’?" "Of course not, the title Flame Emperor..." Su Changqing was just about to speak firmly, but suddenly seemed to recall something, his expression froze. There was indeed a supreme existence, referred to as Flame Emperor!
