When Huo Linger emerged, the elder jumped in shock. Upon closer inspection, he realized that Huo Linger was a flame spirit. Sensing the vast sea of flame energy within her, he was overjoyed.
The Tianyu Sword was a flame attribute divine weapon, and with this level of flame energy, it should be possible to reactivate its runes. Although the item-spirit was dead, whoever could activate its runes would still be able to wield it.
The Tianyu Sword, like a dry riverbed, started soaking in Huo Linger’s energy. It quivered as its runes gradually lit up one after another. Before long, all its runes had awakened, and the enormous sword shrank into a three-foot-long blade, floating before Huo Linger. She stared at it excitedly, as the sword had been reborn and now recognized her as its master.
Huo Linger looked at Long Chen, who then turned to the elder. The elder immediately said, “Go ahead. You were the ones who brought it back to life. I am extremely grateful for this. Everyone is.”
The Tianyu Sword was the mental pillar of everyone in Tianyu City. With the death of its item-spirit, the remaining energy in its runes was close to being depleted. If Huo Linger hadn’t intervened, the sword would have been destroyed sooner or later.
With its runes reactivated, it produced a new spirit. Though no longer the original Tianyu Sword, it could be considered a continuation of its legacy, and it was still worth celebrating.
“Thank you, gramps!” Huo Linger said excitedly, grabbing the sword as its runes flowed along her arm like water. The aura of the sword and Huo Linger merged seamlessly.
However, at that moment, Huo Linger’s aura plummeted, startling Long Chen.
“Big brother Long Chen, don’t worry. Now our energy is connected. My energy is its, and its energy is mine. It’s just that the sword is severely exhausted, and its core is damaged. I’ll need to borrow the energy of the Moon Trees and Fusang Trees to help it recover. We’ll be counting on you!” Huo Linger said.
After that, Huo Linger disappeared, returning to the primal chaos space with the Tianyu Sword. She transformed into a giant dragon flying in the sky, absorbing the Moon Flames and Sun Flames to help the Tianyu Sword recover.
The Tianyu Sword, like someone on the verge of drowning who had grasped a lifeline, absorbed the flame energy with all its might, slowly revealing its original glorious form.
However, it was so powerful that letting it recover would exhaust an enormous amount of energy. The Moon Flames and Sun Flames within the primal chaos space were only enough to pull it out of immediate danger. It was like pouring a bucket of water on a burning cart—insufficient for a complete recovery.
Long Chen was surprised by this. This demonstrated just how powerful the Tianyu Sword was. Once fully restored, Huo Linger’s power would undoubtedly reach terrifying heights. Long Chen’s new mission was to let the Tianyu Sword quickly recover its energy.
According to Huo Linger, the sword had overdrawn its energy and was teetering on the edge of collapse. Though she could stabilize its runes, the sword was still too weak for combat.
The elder was a bit sad to see the Tianyu Sword taken away. Staring at the empty tower, he felt a sense of loss.
“Senior, don’t worry, you can leave the problems of Tianyu City to me. Can you tell me more about the situation here?” Long Chen asked.
Now that Huo Linger had acquired such a powerful divine weapon, Long Chen couldn’t just leave without fully understanding the situation. He felt indebted to the elder and the city for their generosity.Taking out two seats, Long Chen invited the elder to sit down. The elder, whose name was Chu He, began to explain the state of Tianyu City.
The elder was actually a nine-vein Human Emperor and the person with the highest cultivation base in Tianyu City. It was thanks to his existence that Tianyu City was still peaceful.
Alas, he had to be born when the Tianyu Sword was already deteriorating. Other than scaring away enemies, the sword held little real power. Otherwise, Chu He would have used it long ago to slay the Gold Lion and Stone Spirit races.
Although Chu He had become a nine-vein Human Emperor, an incident during his attempt to break through to the half-step Immortal Emperor realm had left his cultivation base damaged. With no medicinal pills to aid his recovery, he could no longer advance, and the wound from that failed attempt continued to torment him for countless years.
As a result, although the strongest experts of the Stone Spirit race and the Gold Lion race were only seven-vein Emperors, Chu He didn’t dare to engage them recklessly, fearing that a misstep could lead to the destruction of Tianyu City. He didn’t dare to gamble with everyone’s lives like that.
Knowing the terror of a nine-vein Human Emperor, the Gold Lion and the Stone Spirit races also didn’t dare to go far against the humans. They had been living in constant fear of what Chu He might do.
Since Chu He knew his situation was not good, he had been working on raising a successor. Among his four disciples, one named Jiang Yiming was the most talented, and Chu He had the highest hopes for him. Jiang Yiming was exceptionally powerful, and Chu He truly loved him, believing that this disciple had the potential to surpass him.
However, as Jiang Yiming’s strength grew, so did his arrogance. His temper worsened, and he developed a tyrannical desire for control. He started scolding his senior apprentice-brothers, even striking anyone who dared to oppose him.
Things reached a breaking point when Jiang Yiming was caught abusing his junior apprentice-sister. Furious, Chu He nearly executed him on the spot.
Chu He was a kind person and valued character and morality. However, he had not expected to have misjudged his beloved disciple so badly. This fellow’s previous obedient and thoughtful appearance was all an act. Once his power grew, his true nature slowly revealed itself.
In the end, due to the pleas of countless experts, Chu He chose to lock him in an underground prison to repent instead. If Jiang Yiming didn’t repent, he would never be released.
However, Jiang Yiming’s father loved his son too much to see him rotting away. Using his connections, he managed to obtain the key to the prison and let his son go free.
Knowing his son’s nature, he understood that true repentance was impossible. He let his son go so that he could gamble everything on making a run to the Heaven Essence World. After all, what if he did manage to get there?
Back then, Jiang Yiming was already a formidable two-vein Human Emperor. In Tianyu City, the number of people who could beat him did not exceed a handful.
But rather than fleeing, Jiang Yiming shocked everyone by joining the Stone Spirit race.
When Long Chen heard that Jiang Yiming had defected to the Spirit Stone race, he couldn’t help being baffled.
“He turned traitor?” asked Long Chen.
“Not only that… He is now the vice race leader of the Stone Spirit race!” said Chu He, a glimmer of icy killing intent in his eyes.
“What?! How did he manage to pull that off?!” Long Chen exclaimed in disbelief.
