Evolution of the Dark Sky Sword

Returning this time, Su Lang didn't plan to cause a big scene.

His main purpose was just to accompany Ji Ruxue and Murong Qianqian to see their homeland and reminisce about the happy times from before.

Therefore, he didn't go to the Xuanyuan Martial Arts Academy to show off or anything; instead, he took the three girls to Nanlin City, Dongfang City, and Red Maple Town.

After the great war ended, the Wind Spirit Clan gave up their control over the Vicious Beasts, allowing them to thrive and multiply.

These Vicious Beasts became wild species and gradually began to be domesticated by people as Spirit Pets.

However, those that weren't domesticated remained very fierce and still needed to be hunted.

Fortunately, beast tides would never occur again, allowing every city to relax and begin expanding their scale.

A peaceful life made people's spiritual needs even stronger, so many strange and quirky things were created.

Chu Xiaobei had never been in contact with Blue Star's culture, so she was incredibly curious about many things she saw.

Ji Ruxue and Murong Qianqian ran around with her, while Su Lang stood to the side, smiling softly.

Though Su Lang appeared idle on the surface, he was actually paying attention to the you tian sword.

From the Yaochi Sacred Clan's treasury, Su Lang had obtained exactly twenty-nine martial god souls and two martial saint souls.

This had already completed the missing Materials for the you tian sword's final upgrade.

"System!"

Su Lang ordered, "Retain only the current traits and evolve the you tian sword!"

"Ding! Consuming Saint-Grade Artifact Refining Materials: Origin Rock *6, Clear Heart Jade *6, Bodhi Treasure Heart *6, Lotus Purple Crystal *6… Ultimate Heart Saint Glaze *6. Divine Rank Artifact Refining Materials: martial god soul *10… you tian sword has evolved into an Intermediate Saint Weapon!"

Inside the Storage Space.

The you tian sword flashed with brilliance, its spiritual aura instantly becoming even more concentrated, and the three condensed rules of 'Defense Break', 'Indestructible', and 'Soul Slash' became increasingly powerful!

"It has reached the Peak of a Six-Star Sacred Artifact!"

"Tsk tsk, if the you tian sword had been at this Rank when I attacked the Wuyang Demon Cave, that Wuyang Martial Saint would have died in a single strike!"

The corners of Su Lang's mouth curled into a smile.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed.

Places like Nanlin City and Dongfang City weren't enough to satisfy them; Chu Xiaobei and the other two girls insisted on dragging Su Lang along to continue their travels.

At this moment, the three girls were still out playing.

Su Lang, like a man exhausted from shopping with women, stayed in an inn with his eyes closed to rest.

Just then, a System notification broke the silence!

"Ding! Thunder Element Rule has been comprehended! Do you wish to receive it?"

"What!?"

The bored Su Lang suddenly widened his eyes: "Right, I forgot, I can comprehend a rule every thirty-two hours!"

Automatic rule comprehension was a super-defiant new feature that came as a bonus when the One-Click Cultivation Function was upgraded to Level 20.

At this moment, this function had comprehended the first rule for Su Lang: the Thunder Element Rule!

"System! Receive the Thunder Element Rule!"

Su Lang gave the command with great anticipation.

"Ding! Thunder Element Rule has been issued!"

Boom!

Su Lang felt as if he heard a thunderclap that shook heaven and earth, leaving his whole body numb.

Immediately after, countless fine threads of lightning emerged out of thin air around Su Lang.

This wasn't something he deliberately controlled, but a natural phenomenon caused by the manifestation of the rule!

"Is this thunder?"

Su Lang reached out a hand; countless bolts of lightning flickered in and out of existence, exceptionally gorgeous.

Yet behind this beauty lay incredibly terrifying power.

With just a sliver of the Thunder Element Rule's Power of Rules, Su Lang could turn this small city into a Thunder Domain, and any living being below the Saint stage would be reduced to ashes in an instant.

Of course, Su Lang wouldn't do something so insane.

"The Power of Rules is truly terrifying."

"This is why there is an endless chasm between a Martial God and a Martial Saint!"

Su Lang sighed with emotion and withdrew the Power of Rules.

At the same time.

Far away in the heart of the mountains of the Yaochi Sacred Clan on the Canglan Continent, Li Xianyang was staring dumbfounded at the lightning rule in his hand.

"This, this, this!? I suddenly mastered the lightning rule!"

Li Xianyang's eyes bulged, his face full of disbelief.

Power of Rules—a Martial Saint would need over ten thousand years to even roughly comprehend a single one!

In Li Xianyang's over one million years of life, he had only comprehended a few dozen shallow rules.

But now, he had actually comprehended the Thunder Element Rule in an instant, making him feel as if he had been hit on the head by a pie the size of the sun falling from the sky.
