"This...how is this possible!" After a while, Zirong said in disbelief.

"I thought I was wrong, but it turns out I was right, and you are the same." Jiang Yuzhe said.

After saying that, they thought of something and their expressions became serious.

This so-called strange power does not belong to the Holy Court Continent at all, but to the power of the Continent of Gods (the Continent of Demons).

Anyone else would probably have never even heard of the existence of the Divine Continent, let alone the source of this power. However, they had encountered the Divine Temple expert before, witnessed him and Yue Ji break through the continental barrier, and personally felt the power of heaven and earth in the Divine Continent, so they were all too familiar with it.

"Could it be that there are masters from the temple?" Several people's eyes were stern and they looked around vigilantly.

"What temple master?" Qu Shanling had obviously never heard of the Continent of Gods and looked at them blankly.

"Don't be so nervous, it has nothing to do with the temple." Ye Lanxuan shook his head and said.

Hua Yue and the others did not have any doubt about what Mu Hanyan and Ye Lanxun said. They looked relieved upon hearing it, but they were even more confused.

"If it weren't for the people from the temple taking action, how could there be the power of the Continent of Gods?" Jiang Yuzhe asked puzzledly.

"What are you talking about?" Qu Shanling was even more confused.

Mu Hanyan immediately mentioned the matter of the Continent of Gods in a simple way, and Qu Shanling suddenly realized it.

"If it weren't for the masters of the temple breaking the barrier that sealed the continent, how could there be the power of heaven and earth from the Continent of Gods here?" After all, Qu Shanling was a charlatan, and he was well-informed. His ability to accept unknown things was much stronger than that of ordinary people. Without asking any more questions, he asked with curiosity.

"Breaking the seal barrier isn't just something the Temple masters can do; the Holy Court masters can do it, too. It's just not necessary. And as far as I know, the seal barrier between our Holy Court Continent and the Divine Continent isn't perfect either; there are some cracks.

"Although these cracks were sealed by masters from both sides using various means hundreds of thousands of years ago, after so many years, there's no telling if they'll reopen." Ye Lanxuan pondered.

"In that case, the power of heaven and earth from the Continent of Gods gathered in the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool should have come from the crack in the seal." After hearing his words, Hua Yue and the others were finally completely relieved.

Qu Shanling also breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was the first time he heard of the Continent of Gods and he knew very little about it, he could imagine how powerful the Temple was since it had been able to fight against the Holy Court Continent for a million years.

"It's strange. This Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool can actually absorb the power of heaven and earth in the Continent of Gods. Moreover, it has undergone such changes. Even the speed of tempering the divine sword is much faster than before." Jiang Yuzhe said in amazement after circling the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool several times after relaxing.

"What's the big deal? It's such a simple thing. If I'm not mistaken, this Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool should have existed before the continent was shattered. Only by gathering the power of heaven and earth from both the Holy Court Continent and the Continent of Gods at the same time can it exert its strongest effect." Mu Hanyan explained.

Others might not be qualified to make such a judgment, but she was. Although her Tianxin technique could rely on the power of the nine heavenly stars to improve her cultivation, when it came to the crucial step of advancing from swordsman to sword master, she was restricted by the laws of heaven and earth and required the full power of heaven and earth to achieve it. She believed that the same would be true when she was promoted to sword saint.

By the way, the same is true for the little auspicious beast.

"But the power of heaven and earth in the Holy Court Continent is now independent and incompatible with the power of heaven and earth in the Gods Continent. How can they coexist peacefully here?" Jiang Yuzhe asked.

Because Hua Yue's father, Hua Guanyu, was born in the Temple, even though they became enemies in the end, Hua Yue can be considered a descendant of the Continent of Gods, so Jiang Yuzhe and others did not call it the Continent of Demons like others did, but called it the Continent of Gods.

"This is even simpler. Look at these extra formation runes on the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool. It is thanks to these formation runes that these completely different forces are integrated into one." Qu Shanling pointed at the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool and said.

Mu Hanyan and others then discovered that the shimmering light and shadow runes in the pool were somewhat different from before, and many of them had never been seen before.

"Yes, how could I forget such a simple thing? Since this Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool existed long before the continent was shattered, it can naturally integrate the two forces of heaven and earth." Jiang Yuzhe patted his forehead and said with sudden realization.

"It's not as simple as you say. Although these formation runes have existed for a long time, the laws of heaven and earth are different from those of the previous continent. In order to stimulate the power of these formation runes, I haven't had a good night's sleep or a full meal in these days." Qu Shanling yawned and said tiredly.

"Master Qu, thank you for your hard work." Mu Hanyan then realized that the reason why Qu Shanling looked so haggard and seemed to have aged ten years was because of this. She said gratefully.

If it wasn't for tempering her Hanxiao Sword, Qu Shanling wouldn't have to go to such great lengths.

"Young master, you are being too polite. This Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool was left by my master. If we can make full use of it, we will not let his master down. Besides, you saved my life, so it's nothing for me to help you a little." Qu Shanling waved his hand and said indifferently.

Hearing Qu Shanling say this, Mu Hanyan felt even more embarrassed. This Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool was left by Qu Shanling's master, and Qu Shanling was able to open the seal because his master had invested a lot of effort in it, but in the end, she got the advantage.

In order to help her refine the Frost Sky Sword, Qu Shanling had done his utmost. She felt she owed Qu Shanling and his disciple too much.

"Master Qu, take these pills. Don't damage your foundation." Mu Hanyan took out the pills and handed them to Qu Shanling without saying anything.

Qu Shanling knew Mu Hanyan's character and didn't treat him as an outsider. He took it generously, opened a bottle, took out the pill and fed it into his mouth.

"What a good pill!" As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Qu Shanling kept his eyes fixed on it and praised loudly.

Of course it’s a good pill. This is the cultivation resource specially given by the clan to the Supreme Elder. How can it be bad?

"As expected of the Mu family, they just casually give out such good pills. It's a pity to take them so carelessly." Qu Shanling didn't know the origin of these pills. He sighed, then looked painful. He carefully put the pills into his arms, reluctant to take another one.
