The taciturn and cold-eyed Third Uncle took out a dark-colored longsword brimming with spiritual energy and handed it to Chu Mo.
"This is a magical artifact I refined when I was bored. It's called the Spirit-Slaying Sword. Once this sword is unleashed, even a Golden Core cultivator will surely die!"
Chu Mo quickly took it.
The sword is three feet and three inches long. The blade and scabbard are the same color as the sword, and the whole body is black jade, simple and unadorned.
But the terrifying pressure emanating from above terrified him.
A magic weapon capable of slaying a Golden Core cultivator—if we took this back, wouldn't we be invincible?
This is a real weapon of mass destruction!
As if knowing what he was thinking, the third uncle continued:
"However, with your current cultivation level, if you want to kill a Golden Core cultivator with this magic weapon, you will inevitably exhaust your spiritual power and lose your fighting ability for a short time. Therefore, you must be very careful when using it!"
Chu Mo felt a little regretful, but then he immediately felt relieved.
Even so, this spirit sword is a treasure for saving lives and turning the tide in critical moments.
That truly means I am invincible below the Golden Core stage, and above the Golden Core stage... I don't even need to trade one for one.
It's a fight to the death!
At worst, I'll just become an ordinary person temporarily; at worst, I'll have bodyguards when I go out.
If all else fails, you can simply escape through the passage or hide inside the bronze cauldron.
Thinking this way, I realized I was already in an invincible position.
"Hehe, thank you, Third Martial Uncle!" Chu Mo didn't hesitate at all.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly unapproachable third uncle turned out to be so generous.
Not only him, but the other three were also slightly surprised.
Jiang Fengchun put a lot of effort into refining this spiritual sword.
Moreover, the grade of this kind of spirit sword will continuously improve as its owner nurtures it.
Unexpectedly, it was given to Chu Mo.
Fifth Uncle Zhou Lu shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly:
"Third senior brother, you've made me very embarrassed. I don't have any treasures of the same level to give to Xiao Mo as a gift."
"That's your problem."
Jiang Fengchun glanced at him indifferently and ignored him.
Then he carefully taught Chu Mo the techniques for controlling and nurturing the Spirit-Slaying Sword.
Chu Mo was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he learned very quickly and mastered the skills in no time.
At this moment, Fifth Uncle Zhou Lu took out several palm-sized, ancient-looking banners and solemnly handed them to Chu Mo, saying:
"This is the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Banner. By placing this banner according to the five elements, it can gather the five elements of heaven and earth, making the spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius abundant."
"Whether you cultivate on your own or establish your own sect in the future, this banner will be of great use to you."
Chu Mo was extremely shocked.
If we find a hilltop, plant the flag there, wouldn't it turn into a sacred mountain?
In some ways, this thing is even more precious than the Spirit-Slaying Sword.
With it, many sects can greatly increase their strength, and this increase is continuous.
It can be described as the family's most prized treasure!
This time, Chu Mo dared not accept it again and hurriedly shook his head to decline:
"Fifth Uncle, this thing is of great use to Lingyin Village, I cannot accept it."
"Take it. The Burial Abyss is a very special forbidden area. The spiritual energy here is balanced, so it won't be of much use here."
Zhou Lu remained calm and simply stuffed the Five Elements Banner into his arms.
The other three were taken aback; they hadn't expected him to give this to Chu Mo.
This item does not belong to the Xuantian Sect, but is a family heirloom of Zhou Lu, and is of great significance.
Tang Jingxiang couldn't help but sigh:
"Fifth Senior Brother, you've revealed all your secrets. Not bad, you haven't embarrassed us."
"Ninth Junior Sister, the way you're talking makes it sound like I'm petty."
"Isn't that right? Then why didn't you give me the youth-preserving herb last time?"
Zhou Lu glanced at her helplessly, and said with a wry smile:
"I already told you, by the time you asked me for it, I had already used the youth-preserving herb in medicine."
"Ha, why didn't you give it to me before I even needed it?"
Zhou Lu shut up immediately, as if he were in deep meditation, and did not offer any further rebuttal.
For thousands of years, the few who tried to reason with their junior sister have never won.
Chu Mo found it quite amusing; his Ninth Uncle's unreasonable behavior was truly...
Well, he couldn't comment too much on his elders, as long as they were good to him.
As for the other two, they turned a deaf ear to it, clearly already used to it.
Only after Tang Jingxiang stopped demanding payment did Qin Potian smile and say:
"Xiao Mo, just accept what your senior uncles have given you. You're their only junior nephew, so it's only right that they treat you well."
Chu Mo asked in confusion, "The only one? Don't I have any other senior brothers or sisters?"
"No! For thousands of years, none of us have ever taken on any apprentices, and the entire village has never had an apprentice."
"All geniuses are taught by the Elders of the Transmission of Skills."
At this point, the old man looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Becoming my disciple means you've joined the Xuantian Sect."
"If one day the forbidden area opens and we are unable to leave, I hope that you can carry on the Xuantian Sect."
Upon hearing this, the other three also fell silent, their expressions complex.
There is resentment, helplessness, pain, and regret.
Although they were mentally prepared for the outcome.
But the lives of thousands and the legacy of thousands of years still cannot bring them peace.
This moment.
Chu Mo then realized the good intentions behind his fifth uncle's gift of the Five Elements Banner to him.
So that's what they expected of me. Perhaps this was Master's true intention back then?
He wanted to leave behind a legacy for the Xuantian Sect.
As for obtaining the divine artifact and leading Lingyin Village out of the forbidden area, it's just a beautiful dream.
