Unlocking the Innate Kidney Body, Both Immortals and Demons Cried!

181: Sword Master is back, and he’s terrifyingly powerful!Everyone who was Cultivating on the Ascension Platform had their attention drawn by the sudden situation in the direction of Wangxian Hall.

Everyone immediately awoke from their Cultivation state, looking in surprise at the scorching red light that shot into the sky.

Luo Luo, who was sitting on Su Yang, had her face light up with joy.

”Master, it’s Sword Master! Sword Master has completed his tempering!”

Luo Luo was incredibly excited.

Su Yang’s heart also filled with joy upon hearing this: ”Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go take a look together!”

He finally waited for this day!!!

A flash of Spiritual Qi emerged from Su Yang’s body, and Crimson Phoenix also emerged from Su Yang’s Dantian. In three months, Crimson Phoenix had grown a bit more, already having a hint of a graceful young girl’s charm.

”I’ll go with you too!”

Crimson Phoenix said.

Su Yang nodded, not wasting words. He brought Gu Yue, An Ran, Cold Moon, Crimson Phoenix, Wen Yunyao, Lin Bingqing, and Bai Lingxi. Following Luo Luo, the group quickly flew towards Wangxian Hall.

The red light emitted from Wangxian Hall was too powerful. Apart from Luo Luo, Cold Moon, and Crimson Phoenix who could resist it, even Bai Lingxi, who had entered the Void Refining Middle Stage, couldn’t withstand the approaching pressure.

Luo Luo blocked the pressure in front, allowing everyone to advance quickly.

The Ascension Platform was not far from Wangxian Hall to begin with, and the group arrived quickly.

Those mighty cultivators of the Undergoing Tribulation period who had long been Cultivating in the stone chambers of Wangxian Hall also awoke due to the sudden surge of power erupting from Wangxian Hall. They all didn’t know what had happened, but with such terrifying power overflowing, everyone was extremely vigilant.

”Saintess!”

Upon seeing Luo Luo appear, they immediately bowed respectfully.

”Don’t be nervous, it’s not an enemy attack! You all should stop Cultivating for now, something might happen soon!”

Luo Luo led Su Yang and his group through the crowd, not paying them much attention. Instead, she walked straight through the crowd to the stone chamber, then opened the chamber’s floor, leading Su Yang and his group underground.

Unlike their last visit, the Spiritual Qi of the entire Earth Core Furnace was exceptionally active, with surging Spiritual Qi lava and the hot red Spiritual Light erupting from underground echoing each other, forming a miraculous resonance and cycle.

At the center, which was the origin of the Spiritual Light eruption, a powerful energy vortex was slowly forming, emitting heart-pounding fluctuations.

”So hot!”

”The Spiritual Qi here is astonishing!”

”Sword Master is tempering himself here???”

Apart from Su Yang, Luo Luo, Cold Moon, and Crimson Phoenix, who were not greatly affected, the other women found it difficult to bear such immense heat.

Luo Luo waved her hand, forming a protective barrier in front of them, which finally allowed them to relax.

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the underground lava.

At the center of the massive energy vortex, the red light gradually receded until it disappeared. The dark red lava slowly stopped churning, and the underground lava formed by Spiritual Qi gradually returned to calm.

After less than a quarter of an hour of calm, the dark red lava that had stopped churning began to change again. The color at the center quickly turned bright yellow-red, then rapidly became golden. The golden area expanded swiftly at a visible rate.

A figure slowly rose from it, stepping on the surging Spiritual Energy, walking step by step towards the shore.

At this moment, apart from Luo Luo, Cold Moon, and Crimson Phoenix who could remain calm, everyone, including Su Yang, was shocked.

It was an old man, completely red and translucent.

He stepped through the lava, his temperature rapidly decreasing with each step.

As the temperature dropped, his figure gradually became clearer.

His hair and beard were white, but not withered or decayed; instead, they were like silver threads, gleaming with a metallic luster.

His face was ancient and rugged, with lines as hard as if carved by an axe. His eyes shone with piercing light, as if they contained the Void Realm, yet wanted to penetrate the Void Realm with endless radiance.

The current Sword Master was completely different from his previous image of a hunched and frail old man.

His physique was exceptionally tall and robust, with bulging muscles, as if forged from divine iron tempered a thousand times, full of explosive power. Every muscle seemed to contain terrifying power capable of destroying the heavens and earth.

His bare upper body was covered with ancient, dark red patterns, like flowing lava, exuding a scorching and sharp Aura.

His lower body wore peculiar black pants formed from cooled lava, which looked incredibly hard, but moved as softly as silk with his steps. His gait was extremely steady; each step he took was like an peerless, ominous blade that had endured countless tribulations, about to be unsheathed to cleave through the firmament!

Ancient!

Majestic!

So powerful that it inspired awe.

Even though Gu Yue had a grudge against Sword Master, seeing him emerge from the lava now, she found that she couldn’t even harbor a trace of thought for revenge.

This Sword Master, compared to the hunched and frail Sword Master she had seen back then, although still an old man, his temperament and Aura were like two different people.

The Sword Master before her seemed too strong, so strong that she instantly felt that even if she recovered to her Nine-Tailed Peak state, she would be easily crushed by him with one hand!

Gu Yue subconsciously swallowed.

Is this her Master’s sword?

It was simply terrifying enough to make one’s hair stand on end.

Sword Master stepped ashore.

His gaze immediately fixed on Su Yang at the front of the crowd.

A trace of uncontrollable excitement flashed across his majestic face, but it quickly transformed into deep reverence.

Sword Master strode forward, knelt on one knee before Su Yang, cupped his fists in salute, his voice booming like a bell, yet with a hint of an imperceptible tremor:

”Old servant Jian Kui, greets Master! After thirty thousand years of separation, I finally see Master’s heavenly countenance again! Old servant... can once again fight across the world with Master!!!”

His aged face, yet his voice was full of vigor, completely devoid of any weakness.

Su Yang looked at the Sword Master before him, and amidst his shock, a faint stirring arose in his heart.

Although his memories were completely gone, there was a sense of familiarity, a Bloodline connection and a Soul resonance.

Su Yang stepped forward, helping Jian Kui up with both hands: ”Sword Master, please rise!”

Jian Kui rose, his gaze burning as he looked at Su Yang, then swept over Crimson Phoenix, Cold Moon, and the others beside him, a look of relief and understanding flashing in his eyes.

”Master’s return must have also involved many tribulations, yet your Aura is renewed, surpassing the past. This old servant senses that Immortal Emperor Crimson Phoenix and Immortal Emperor Cold Moon are also here, which is truly a blessing.”

He also nodded slightly to Crimson Phoenix and Cold Moon, his attitude respectful but not subservient, maintaining an equal courtesy.

”You’re still the same as before.”

Cold Moon observed Sword Master, calmly saying: ”No, not exactly the same. I can tell that you haven’t wasted a moment in the thirty thousand years since you left Su Yang; your power is stronger than before.”

”Immortal Emperor Cold Moon is also stronger than thirty thousand years ago!”

Sword Master’s gaze turned to Crimson Phoenix, frowning slightly: ”Looking directly at Immortal Emperor Crimson Phoenix...?”

”The reason is very complicated, don’t ask!”

Crimson Phoenix pouted. Thinking of herself being the weakest, how could she be happy?

Sword Master didn’t ask further. He only knew that Master had preserved a wisp of Crimson Phoenix’s Divine Soul at the last moment, but how she was resurrected, Sword Master did not know.

Sword Master’s gaze returned to Su Yang: ”Master, this old servant has waited thirty thousand years, and now that my tempering is complete and Master has returned, it is time for this old servant to return to his sword body and once again fight alongside Master!”

With that, without waiting for Su Yang’s response, Jian Kui’s robust body suddenly erupted with dazzling light! The light was not a single color, but a blend of brilliant white, dark gold, and profound black, containing extreme sharpness, indestructibility, and scorching heat that could incinerate all things...
