77: Suppressing the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Saving the Monk

A wooden sword surrounded by lightning flew out of the eight trigrams furnace.

In an instant, the sky changed color, and thunder boomed.

"Why is it thundering!"

Jiang Yunfan looked up.

"Oh my, don't tell me it's a Lightning Tribulation!"

"Of course it's a Lightning Tribulation. Spiritual Artifacts all attract Lightning Tribulations. I am not an Artifact Refiner, so I couldn't refine the ten-thousand-year thunder struck wood into a peak grade spirit tool, but the Lightning Tribulation can allow it to transform into one."

This sword was refined from ten-thousand-year thunder struck wood, and the Lightning Tribulation could actually enhance its power.

The eight trigrams furnace returned to Jiang Yunfan's body, and Jiang Yunfan immediately retreated into the distance.

The Lightning Tribulation attracted the attention of many Experts in Nanyue City, who released their Spiritual Sense and Divine Sense to investigate and saw the wooden sword.

"It's an Artifact Tribulation. This wooden sword is actually a high-grade spirit tool."

The high-grade spirit tool made people envious, and they left Nanyue City one by one.

Jiang Yunfan noticed people approaching. His face was cold; anyone who dared to steal his sword was courting death!

Dozens of Experts appeared outside the tribulation cloud.

They all looked at the wooden sword with fervent eyes.

"This sword was refined from thunder struck wood, and to become a high-grade spirit tool, it must undoubtedly be ten-thousand-year thunder struck wood."

"I wonder who refined this sword?"

"Who cares who refined it, let's grab it first."

"If you want this sword, rely on your own abilities!"

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck towards the wooden sword.

The lightning struck the wooden sword, and the wooden sword absorbed the power of the lightning.

"As expected of a Spiritual Artifact refined from ten-thousand-year thunder struck wood, it can even absorb the Lightning Tribulation."

"After absorbing the power of the Lightning Tribulation, perhaps it can transform into a peak grade spirit tool."

A peak grade spirit tool!

Even a Saint would be envious.

Not every Saint possesses a Sacred Artifact.

Therefore, a peak grade spirit tool could move the heart of a Saint.

Let alone these people.

The Spiritual Artifact Tribulation has twenty-seven bolts, also known as the Three Nine Heavenly Tribulation.

After absorbing the power of eighteen bolts of Lightning Tribulation, the wooden sword transformed into a peak grade spirit tool, and a terrifying Sword Qi shot straight into the sky.

"What powerful Sword Qi! Truly worthy of being a peak grade spirit tool."

Everyone prepared to seize the wooden sword.

Just then, a terrifying Killing Intent swept over, and this murderous aura startled everyone.

A red-haired Sword Devil, radiating Killing Intent, appeared.

The Sword Devil.

Jiang Yunfan sneered internally. He came at the perfect time; he could use him to kill these people.

The Sword Devil brought out the immortal slaying sword and swept it across. A bolt of immortal slaying sword Qi slashed towards the crowd. They joined forces to resist the immortal slaying sword Qi, but it was like a praying mantis trying to stop a carriage; they were sent flying by a single slash, and the few with weaker cultivation died instantly.

"Run!"

The survivors fled in terror.

The Sword Devil raised his sword and gave chase.

Now, no one dared to steal the sword.

The Sword Devil arrived at Nanyue City and began a massacre.

The wooden sword passed the final Lightning Tribulation. The tribulation cloud dispersed, and the wooden sword flew toward Jiang Yunfan.

Holding the wooden sword, Jiang Yunfan felt a Bloodline connection, a feeling he hadn't experienced with any other Spiritual Artifact he owned.

"From now on, I will call you Judgment, judging all living beings with the power of lightning."

"Now I'll take you to judge a great Devil Head."

Jiang Yunfan left, holding the sword.

The Sword Devil was still massacring, and Nanyue City had turned from a bustling metropolis into a living hell.

Suddenly, a pagoda flew over and hovered above the Sword Devil's head, and a powerful Qiankun Power imprisoned him.

Before the Sword Devil could counterattack, a series of bells rang out. The Soul Capturing Sound caused his Primordial Spirit to be attacked. The soul-snatching bell flew over, and a Soul Capturing Power constantly pulled at his Primordial Spirit, trying to forcibly drag it out of his Physical Body.

The immortal slaying sword released Immortal Slaying Sword Intent to attack the qiankun pagoda.

The power of the qiankun pagoda weakened.

The immortal slaying sword drew in the Aura of Slaughter.

Jiang Yunfan controlled the judgment sword. The judgment sword activated lightning; bolts of lightning raged, dispersing the Aura of Slaughter. Ten thousand bolts of lightning struck towards the Sword Devil, suppressing the power of the immortal slaying sword with the power of lightning.

Jiang Yunfan had placed one hundred million spirit stones inside the qiankun pagoda. These Spirit Stones provided a constant supply of Spiritual Qi to the qiankun pagoda. The qiankun pagoda spirit exerted its might, and a powerful suction pulled the Sword Devil and the immortal slaying sword inside together.

Once inside the qiankun pagoda, don't dream of coming out again.

Success.

Jiang Yunfan was overjoyed.

He immediately retrieved the qiankun pagoda.

Suddenly, a Heavenly Human Realm Expert attacked him.

Jade Rakshasa intervened and blocked the person's attack.

"Kill him."

After giving the order, Jiang Yunfan rode the Purple Lightning Vulture and left Nanyue City.

This Heavenly Human Realm Expert had been injured by the Sword Devil and, being wounded, was no match for Jade Rakshasa. He quickly died at her hands.

Not long after.

A monk arrived at Nanyue City.

Seeing Nanyue City reduced to a living hell, the monk's compassionate face showed sorrow for the world. He pressed his palms together, saying, "Amitabha."

He sat cross-legged in the Void Realm, radiating Buddha Light, and chanted sutras to deliver the souls of the tragically deceased.

After delivering the deceased souls, rays of golden light radiated from Pu Du's body; it was the Golden Light of Merit.

"The immortal slaying sword has caused too much Killing Karma. I must find the immortal slaying sword quickly and place a Seal on it."

Pu Du used the Three Lives Karma Sutra to calculate Karma and search for the immortal slaying sword's traces. Knowing that the immortal slaying sword had been suppressed, he took a step and instantly vanished.

[Today's Intelligence (Red): Pu Du Monk used the Three Lives Karma Sutra to deduce that the Host suppressed the immortal slaying sword. Pu Du is currently tracking the Host.]

"This monk can also Calculate Heavenly Secrets."

Jiang Yunfan was startled, feeling that things were turning bad.

That Pu Du Monk's strength was terrifying. He suppressed the immortal slaying sword by himself, and although he relied on the power of a treasure, his actual capability was not to be underestimated.

"System, give me intelligence regarding Pu Du Monk."

[Today's Intelligence (Red): Pu Du is the Buddhist Son of the Buddhist Sect, possessing Dharma Aspect Mid-stage Realm cultivation. He is the Reincarnation of a Buddhist Sect Saint, has already Awakened his Innate Wisdom, possesses great Karma, and is an Enlightened Eminent Monk. He carries the Buddhist Sect Sacred Artifact, the futuo pagoda.]

"I can't hide, and I can't win in a fight. Am I supposed to just hand over the immortal slaying sword?"

Jiang Yunfan was unwilling to simply surrender the immortal slaying sword he had gone through so much trouble to obtain.

He could only take things one step at a time.

Not long after.

Jiang Yunfan arrived at Fuyun City.

He entered a restaurant, planning to wait there for Pu Du to find him. Since there were many people here, Pu Du Monk wouldn't dare to forcibly seize the item.

The waiter stepped forward to greet him, "Please come in, honored guest."

Jiang Yunfan said, "Prepare a private room."

The waiter led him to a luxurious private room.

"Bring up the best food and wine your restaurant has."

"Please wait a moment, honored guest."

The waiter exited the private room.

Pu Du arrived at the restaurant.

He appeared silently inside Jiang Yunfan's private room.

"Benefactor, I apologize for the interruption."

"Great Master Pu Du, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Yunfan adopted a profound and mysterious demeanor.

Pu Du was very surprised. He hadn't expected this person to know his Buddhist name, know he was coming to find him, and specifically wait here.

"I didn't expect the Benefactor to understand the Divine Ability of Calculating Heavenly Secrets."

"I only have a superficial understanding; I am still lacking compared to the Great Master. The Great Master came for the immortal slaying sword. The immortal slaying sword has already been suppressed by me and can no longer commit evil. Great Master, please return!"

Not only did Jiang Yunfan adopt a lofty attitude, but he also directly ordered him to leave, completely ignoring conventional etiquette.

Pu Du pressed his palms together, "Amitabha. Since the Benefactor knows about the immortal slaying sword, you should understand how terrifying it is. This demonic sword stirred up a bloody storm in ancient times, and now that it has broken its Seal and reappeared, it will once again cause a bloody storm."

"Although the Benefactor used the qiankun pagoda to suppress the immortal slaying sword, it can only suppress it temporarily. The immortal slaying sword's Immortal Slaying Sword Intent can kill artifact spirits. Once the qiankun pagoda spirit is killed by the immortal slaying sword, the immortal slaying sword will certainly reappear, and at that time, the Benefactor's life will be in peril."

Jiang Yunfan's first thought was that the monk was fearmongering to scare him.

But he had personally witnessed how terrifying the immortal slaying sword was. If the immortal slaying sword truly killed the qiankun pagoda spirit, then he would be in real danger.

He immediately communicated with the qiankun pagoda spirit, "Can you suppress the immortal slaying sword indefinitely?"

"No, once the immortal slaying sword recovers its strength, it will surely kill me and escape. Master, you must quickly find another way to suppress the immortal slaying sword."

Jiang Yunfan's mood instantly plummeted. Had all his efforts throughout the day been for nothing?
