Not only did the news spread throughout the mansion, but it also caused a stir in the city, and it also contained some gossip.
"It is said that Lin Su was able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. It seems that it was due to the practice of Cai Bu. Otherwise, how could it be possible so quickly?"
"Master Qingxiao has killed so many people before, he shouldn't be involved in this."
"What's this about Cai Bu? It's said to be achieved through the joint cultivation of master and disciple. The master and disciple are disobedient and have brought shame upon the righteous path."
"Master and disciple practicing together? You can't just say that."
"How could I possibly say such a thing? The dignified Qingxiao Zhenren is nothing more than an evil demon who seduces his disciples."
"Disobedience between master and disciple is something that cannot be tolerated by Heaven..."
There were quite a few rumors about the outside world, but once this matter was exposed, there would be such consequences. Shen Qingtang had already prepared himself mentally and did not take it to heart when he heard it.
Some people dared to say these words quietly, but no one dared to say them in front of him. Not listening to them or thinking about them made him feel very peaceful.
There were quite a few people arrested for causing chaos in the palace, and all those involved were treated as traitors, but Lin Wei was not among them. Under such circumstances, the rumors outside became more and more intense.
And at this moment...
"Retreat?" Shen Qingtang asked when he heard Lin Su say this, "But has your cultivation improved?"
"That's not the case. I just wanted to give Master a surprise." Lin Su lowered his head and touched his cheek. "Don't listen to the rumors in the city these days."
"Master will not be hurt by such words." Shen Qingtang said seriously.
He never did that before, and he never does that now. He knows what he really cares about, so he will never change his mind because of other people's slanderous words.
"But I just can't stand those words that slander Master." Lin Su said with a smile, "Can Master protect me during this retreat?"
"Okay." Shen Qingtang was naturally happy.
Lin Su wouldn't stay in the mansion for his retreat. After informing his parents of his whereabouts, he headed thousands of miles outside the city, seeking a desolate mountain forest where he set up countless formations. Shen Qingtang stood by and watched as he formed seals with his hands. A chilling flame rose from his hands, a blue and white flame that danced beautifully. However, Shen Qingtang's eyes flickered as he realized what the flame was.
Ice Heart Flame, as the name suggests, is a flame derived from ice. Everything has its limits. This flame is bone-chillingly cold, but it is of the fire element, which makes it difficult for cultivators with fire and ice spiritual roots to subdue it easily. However, they never thought that Lin Su already had one.
The flame was suspended in front of Lin Su. He flicked his hand and hundreds of jade boxes appeared in front of him. Every time a jade box was opened, an object would be drawn into the flame by his spiritual energy. This fire was extremely cold, but no matter what was immersed in it, it would turn into liquid in an instant, even the most difficult to melt black ice stone was no exception.
Shen Qingtang stood aside and did not disturb them. Even his breath was very restrained. He just looked carefully at the man who was refining something. Although he liked to fool around on weekdays, he was always extremely serious when doing serious work. His every move was focused, making people feel like they couldn't take their eyes off him.
The flames flickered slightly, and Lin Su naturally noticed the staring gaze, but this time he couldn't divide his mind. The materials in this world were extremely scarce, and if he wanted to refine an immortal weapon, he had to devote all his mind and energy. Even he couldn't be careless in the slightest.
Time passed bit by bit, and the hundreds of jade boxes in front of Lin Su were all opened, and the liquid melted in the flames, with the fluctuations of his spiritual energy, gradually revealed its final appearance.
The hilt, the blade, the spiritual energy was pulsating, and countless formations were driven into the sword as it was formed. The moment the sword was completed, the blue and white flames on it slowly faded away, and a silver dragon pattern appeared on the sword, and it seemed as if the silver dragon could jump out of the sword in the next moment.
As the light flashed by, the originally quiet place was suddenly shrouded in golden light from the sky, and the sound of Sanskrit resounded through the sky, as if announcing to everyone the birth of another magical weapon.
"Immortal weapon?!"
"Has another immortal weapon appeared?"
"Can this world of cultivation really reach a higher level?"
This time, the major sects were no longer hesitant when they received the news, but instead broke through the void and rushed over. Not only immortal cultivators but also demonic cultivators came.
Both of them are powerful, and they met in the air in a mighty manner. The demonic energy and spiritual energy each covered half of the sky outside the formation. If it were not for the golden light of the immortal weapon, people would think that the battle between immortals and demons had just started.
If the forces of good and evil met like this under normal circumstances, there would surely be a great battle, but at this moment everyone subconsciously separated themselves clearly and no one took the first step.
If the magic weapon appears again, whoever can get it will be able to overwhelm the other party in the future. There is really no need to waste energy now.
The atmosphere was strangely harmonious, but Lin Su grasped the hilt of the sword, which was covered in golden light, and inserted it into the scabbard, which had also been refined. He held it in front of Shen Qingtang and said, "Master, I recognize you as my master."
Shen Qingtang had sensed the birth of an immortal weapon before, but seeing this scene up close was still shocking... Perhaps only this word could describe it. This power that transcends this world can probably only be possessed by the person who walked out of the light.
Shen Qingtang had already sensed dozens of auras approaching this place, and knew that this was not the time to dawdle. He simply cut his finger, forcing a drop of blood to fall on the sword. A faint sense of connection came over him. This way of recognizing the master could not erase this spiritual connection as long as the cultivation level was not higher than that of the other person.
However, immortal weapons are different from spiritual treasures. When Shen Qingtang first took over the sword, he felt a slight excitement in it, as if expressing its love for its master.
The sword was made of ice and had a pure and clear appearance. It was also given by this person, so Shen Qingtang naturally liked it: "This sword..."
"If Master wants to name it, now is the best opportunity." Lin Su said.
When a sword is first formed, the sword spirit is born. It only needs to be named. A magic weapon with a sword spirit is completely different from one without a sword spirit.
Shen Qingtang drew out the sword, examined it carefully, and said, "No need to name it."
When he dies in the future, everything else can be left to future generations, but this sword cannot, so its fate will be the same as Lin Su's sword.
As soon as he finished speaking, the slight emotional fluctuation on the sword suddenly disappeared, and a stream of light streaked across the sky, as if responding to the gift from heaven and earth.
The Sanskrit sound falls, and the immortal weapon is completed!
The righteous cultivators were still a little reserved, but the evil cultivators had already begun to attack the formation barrier.
"How dare you devils be so presumptuous!" an elder of the righteous sect shouted sternly.
The gloomy demon cultivator floating in the sky laughed and said, "Don't be so harsh. Don't you also want immortal artifacts? You are a bunch of hypocritical hypocrites, don't you think, Emperor Yin?"
Chu Lingyan was naturally attracted by the immortal weapon, but he arrived a step late and stayed behind. Looking at the demon cultivator who took action, he said, "Venerable Haotian is absolutely right."
