Chapter 127 The Celestial Venerable Appears, the Legend of the Four Swords of Zhuxian
Inside the director's office of Sunshine Mental Hospital.
Ye Fan, Zuo Qing, and Li Yangguang sat around the table, each holding a glass of water and remaining silent.
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation emanated from the space.
An old man in plain clothes tore through the void and walked out from the endless darkness.
Upon seeing the visitor, Ye Fan hurriedly put down the paper cup in his hand, stood up, bowed respectfully, and began to speak.
"Tianzun."
After he finished speaking, Zuo Qing and the other person quickly stood up and bowed.
Although they had never met Yuanshi Tianzun, it was easy to tell from Ye Fan's respectful expression that he must be an important figure.
"I've seen Tianzun."
The old man in plain clothes waved his hand with a smile in his eyes, showing no airs of a supreme expert, just like an ordinary old man in the marketplace.
"No need for formalities. By the way... these two young friends should be meeting for the first time, right?"
Zuo Qing and Li Yangguang looked at the kind and amiable old man in front of them and nodded awkwardly.
Just kidding, this is Yuanshi Tianzun, a supreme being.
He may be unpretentious, but Zuo Qing and the other man dare not disrespect each other.
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded, which was considered a greeting.
After that, his gaze unconsciously drifted toward the direction of the ward where the Master was recuperating.
"Was he injured that badly? It seems the appearance of that sword has instilled fear in those scum from beyond the borders..."
"They actually risked so much to come to the Great Xia territory, trying to find her, but it's a pity... young friend Li Jie has already left first..."
sword?
Could it be that the invasion of the outer gods that Confucius encountered this time is related to the sword he gave to Li Jie?
Seeing the questioning looks on the three men's faces, Yuanshi Tianzun didn't hide anything and stroked his beard as he began to explain.
"You must be wondering why these Outer Gods are so interested in that sword."
"We beg the Heavenly Venerable to enlighten us."
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded.
Do you know the identity of that sword?
Ye Fan and the other two all shook their heads.
Among them, Ye Fan knew the most about the sword's identity, but he only knew that it was a celestial sword comparable to a god; he didn't really know any other specific information.
"The sword that I asked Ye to give to Li Jie was named: Zhuxian."
The Immortal-Slaying Sword?
Upon hearing this, the three looked even more puzzled, because due to the lack of records, all the information about this ancient immortal sword had been lost to the river of time.
Only the gods who participated in the divine war a hundred years ago knew the formidable reputation of the Immortal-Slaying Sword.
Seeing the three people's puzzled expressions, Yuanshi Tianzun continued to explain.
"When talking about the Zhuxian Sword, we must mention the number one killing formation of the Heavenly Dao since the beginning of the primordial chaos, the Zhuxian Sword Formation."
"The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation?... Could there be some connection between the two?" Upon hearing the explanation from the Primordial Celestial Venerable, Zuo Qing couldn't help but ask.
"Young friend Zuo, please don't be impatient. Let this old Taoist explain in detail."
"In the beginning of the universe, the Ancestor Hongjun used the power of the Heavenly Dao to forge the Four Swords of Zhuxian. At the Treasure Distribution Rock, he bestowed the Four Swords of Zhuxian upon the Tongtian Sect Leader, who eventually perfected them and comprehended the Zhuxian Sword Formation Diagram."
"This sword formation dominates the killing and destruction of the Heavenly Dao. Its power is extremely strong. Even if a Great Luo Immortal or a Vajra Arhat enters it, there is a high probability that he will be annihilated in both body and soul."
"Once, I joined forces with Laozi, the Guide Daoist, and the Zhunti Daoist, among others, and barely managed to escape from this number one killing formation of the Heavenly Dao..."
Upon hearing this, it was as if a thunderbolt had struck Ye Fan and the other two.
Although they had never seen the three gods, their names were very famous.
Without a doubt, these are three more Supreme Beings.
Even if the four of them joined forces, they barely managed to escape from the Zhuxian Sword Formation. If the Tongtian Sect Leader had four swords, wouldn't he be an invincible being?
"And the Zhuxian Sword is ranked first among the four Zhuxian Swords, which means that it is... a true god-slaying weapon."
"Judging from the current situation..."
At this point, Yuanshi Tianzun paused for a moment, then looked meaningfully at the white-haired youth standing below the office building.
"Based on the compatibility between him and the Zhuxian Sword, I can be fairly certain."
“Young friend Li Jie will be the next master of the Four Swords of Zhuxian.”
After he finished speaking, the office fell into a deathly silence.
Will Li Jie be the next master of this Heavenly Dao Number One Killing Formation?
With his current meager strength, is he capable of controlling it?
The amount of information provided by Yuanshi Tianzun was somewhat excessive, and for a moment, Ye Fan and the other two were unable to accept it.
Their expressions changed rapidly, showing fear, confusion, and... a hint of anticipation?
If what the Celestial Venerable said is true, Li Jie will be the next master of the Four Swords of Zhuxian.
So, in the near future, when this white-haired youth truly masters those four divine swords, they will become true weapons to protect the nation!
Now it's Ye Fan and Zuo Qing's turn to make a choice.
Should we continue to let Li Jie handle those high-risk incidents alone?
Geniuses are often short-lived, and a peerless genius like him, who appears only once every hundred years, would certainly be the target of extermination by the outer gods and hostile forces if he were not protected.
This invasion of the East Coast is a case in point.
The aura emanating from the Immortal Execution Sword has already instilled fear in the gods beyond the borders of the Great Xia Dynasty.
If he really appeared before them wielding a celestial sword.
It is estimated that these Outer Gods will spare no effort to eliminate Li Jie, this unstable element.
"So, when you mentioned sending Li Jie to the border regions for training, was that also because of the Immortal Execution Sword?"
Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, Yuanshi Tianzun gave him an appreciative look.
"Indeed, the Four Swords of Zhuxian were severely damaged in the battle a hundred years ago. After the war of the gods, I placed them on the four borders to nurture them."
"Because the Zhuxian Sword was the first to awaken, that's why I asked Young Friend Ye to give this sword to that child."
"Only if he can truly gain recognition will he be qualified to go to other places to hone his skills."
"Now that I think about it, it should be getting close soon."
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan suddenly felt that the Celestial Venerable was playing a game of chess, a very large game of chess.
“I understand, Heavenly Venerable.”
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Pulling himself back to reality, Ye Fan asked the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
The old man in plain clothes chuckled and shook his head.
"We cultivators rely entirely on fate for our desires and aspirations. If the time is not right, there is no point in saying more. Let's just see how things develop."
Having said that, he flicked his whisk and disappeared before the three of them.
"I have healed Chen Xiaoyou's internal injuries. You can take care of his physical pain. If fate allows... we'll meet again."
Upon hearing this, the three people still standing in the office bowed respectfully to the void and spoke.
"Farewell, Lord."
