My Master Knows It All

Cao Zhen didn’t expect that even though he promised to leave a path for the descendants of the City Lord of Wansheng, the City Lord of Wansheng would choose to disregard his descendants under such circumstances. He also didn’t expect that the cowardly City Lord of Wansheng would self-destruct.

Moreover, even if he knew the opponent was about to self-destruct, there was no way to prevent it.

Unless his strength was significantly greater than the City Lord of Wansheng, completely capable of suppressing the opponent, otherwise, it’s impossible to stop a True Immortal Realm from self-destructing, because such self-destruction isn’t about demolishing the Immortal Palace but rather drawing the power from the Immortal Palace back into the body, exploding their physical form!

After sensing the opponent’s intention to self-destruct, his figure quickly retreated.

The next moment, a thunderous explosion resounded, followed by waves of aftermath striking with massive dust swirling towards Cao Zhen.

There are two kinds of self-destruction in the True Immortal Realm, one is the self-destruction of the Immortal Palace and the other is self-destructing one’s own body.

The self-destruction of the Immortal Palace naturally has terrifying power, but requires time to prepare, it isn’t an immediate act. Furthermore, the self-destruction of the Immortal Palace also requires optimal condition, and in the current state of the City Lord of Wansheng, he can’t self-destruct the Immortal Palace!

As for self-destructing one’s own body, it’s easy to execute but doesn’t generate much power, naturally unable to harm True Immortal Realm.

Previously, both Demonic Lord Guang Yu and Immortal Lord Yan Hua also chose to self-destruct their own bodies.

Even facing Demonic Lord Guang Yu and Immortal Lord Yan Hua self-destructing their bodies, Cao Zhen felt only regret and sorrow, but regarding the City Lord of Wansheng’s body which had already exploded, he paid no attention.

The City Lord of Wansheng was utterly brainwashed, and up to his dying breath, he showed no inkling of repentance, nor was he willing to divulge any details about the Eternal Assembly.

”However, this also illustrates a point, these hall master-level figures like the City Lord of Wansheng are privy to a lot of insider information. And unlike the people below, those below might have joined the Eternal Assembly due to not having fared well or for some treasure, but these hall masters seemingly joined the Eternal Assembly with genuine pursuits.”

Cao Zhen ignored the corpse of the City Lord of Wansheng and instead reached out to seize all of the treasures belonging to the City Lord of Wansheng.

The golden long blade had just fallen into his hand when suddenly, a golden phantom flew out from the blade, immortal cultivation visible in his sight.

A tiny golden dragon, is this the blade spirit within the long blade?

Another dragon?

How fascinating, why do people like to capture dragons and place them into treasures?

The sword spirit of his Purple Dawn Sword is a Black Dragon, and the blade spirit of this long blade is also a dragon!

The difference being, when the Black Dragon Sword Spirit emerged initially, it showed nothing but disdain toward him, but this blade spirit appeared exceptionally cordial toward Cao Zhen, gently bouncing around him, speaking merrily: ”Thank you for killing that guy, I am finally free. He didn’t deserve to possess a Dragon Blade.”

Cao Zhen was stunned, realizing that although he noticed Hall Master Guang Yao, who is the City Lord of Wansheng, had a combat style and personality that didn’t match the sword technique and aura of the blade, he couldn’t have guessed this blade spirit would disapprove of Hall Master Guang Yao so strongly.

”By the way, do you practice swordsmanship?” The blade spirit didn’t wait for Cao Zhen to speak, continuing, ”I very much admire your combat style, you seem fit to wield this blade. If you become the master of the Dragon Blade, I will certainly support you with all my might.”

This...

Cao Zhen suddenly realized the stark contrast between this blade spirit and his sword spirit. Back then, the Black Dragon Sword Spirit had outright refused to let him borrow its power or that of its clan. Yet here was this blade spirit, eager to offer itself unsolicited.

Just as he was about to speak, the Black Dragon Sword Spirit from within the Purple Dawn Sword rushed out and shouted at the blade spirit: ”What are you trying to do? I’m telling you, don’t compete with me, and let me tell you, he doesn’t practice sword technique, even if he gets this blade, it would be useless.”

Cao Zhen looked at the Black Dragon Sword Spirit speechless, what was going on here? Was this a case of jealousy? But honestly, possessing this blade himself might not serve much purpose, yet it would be invaluable to someone.

”I do happen to practice sword technique, but my expertise in sword technique pales in comparison to my proficiency in swordsmanship.

However, I do have a disciple who excels at wielding a blade, and her aura aligns better with this blade.

My disciple, her sword technique is all about one decisive strike!

One strike to determine victory, one strike to decide life and death, with one strike charging forward without looking back. Now, if my disciple is to face the presence of True Immortal Realm, I can pass this blade to her.”

Seeing the aura of this blade, Cao Zhen immediately thought of his disciple Yan Yourong, it seemed as though this blade was crafted specifically for Yan Yourong.

Furthermore, Yan Yourong, as the Second Disciple of the Four Treasures Peak, hasn’t received much care from him all along, in fact, Yan Yourong even received teachings from the Five Elements Peak on some Divine Skills, which helped her to further advance.

Though now, Yan Yourong has already achieved True Immortal Realm status, she no longer needs Divine Skills, yet the application methods of those Divine Skills have provided her immense enlightenment. They greatly assist her on her future path.

On the contrary, as her master, his care for Yan Yourong has been quite lacking, even falling short compared to Yi Sheng, Tang Xiaorui, and Shen Pingyi.
