Remould the Glory of Sword Art

With True Monarch Miaofa’s indifferent personality, there’s no need to take care of him like this.

When True Monarch speaks, he can only comply.

The difference in power between the two is too vast; these little tricks can only be used after the feast is over.

True Monarch Miaofa can protect Yuan Huo for this night.

Could it be that he can protect him until the birthday feast ends?

"Thank you, Senior."

As soon as Venerable Yuan Huo sat down, he immediately pulled Xie Xuanyi over to salute.

"Nothing to worry about."

True Monarch Miaofa was very calm, waved his hand, indicating that Yuan Huo could sit down, the latter was filled with joy, awaiting the follow-up, but Qilin Miaofa True Monarch didn’t indulge in much pleasantries, instead drinking good wine alone in silence, without any intention of asking about his master "Chi Huang."

"It is truly odd, junior brother..."

Venerable Yuan Huo was quite puzzled, scratching his head, saying, "Isn’t True Monarch Miaofa here to reminisce, why hasn’t he said a word since sitting down?"

"Because he simply doesn’t care about ’Red Flame Great Venerable’..."

Xie Xuanyi silently responded in his heart.

He smiled on the surface, dealing with it by saying, "Senior brother, don’t overthink it. It’s good enough that True Monarch is willing to defuse the situation."

"True enough."

Yuan Huo grinned, raised his goblet, "Come, junior brother, let’s have a drink."

"Thank you, everyone, for gracing us with your presence."

Once everyone was seated.

At the end of the hall, the Supreme spoke.

Nether Sea Venerable stood within the talisman formation, did not show his true face, but offered a precious gesture of courtesy to the attendees, everyone returned the courtesy.

"Tonight’s feast has taken much of my effort. Next... everyone can relax their minds and enjoy."

Nether Sea Venerable spoke with a smile.

As his words fell, the feast officially began.

Above the hall, enchanted music began, dancers filed in.

Talismans swayed in the breeze.

This Great Array had the effect of Divine Thought illusions.

Those dancers, enhanced by talismans, each were as beautiful as celestial beings, with garments flowing, akin to the Nine Heavens Profound Lady, the entire hall, enveloped by talismans, transformed into a Paradise. Even someone like Ao Ying, such a female, was dazzled, never thought talisman formations could be used for pleasure, let alone the disciples under Venerable Heavenly Phoenix.

Except for the three Green Flame Venerables, the rest hadn’t reached the Yin God Realm.

Their Divine Thought realm was low.

Once the music played, they lost themselves, looking at the Nine Heavens Profound Lady flying towards the hall’s dome, losing their minds, losing their souls.

For a moment, Qi Blue Mountain’s pinnacle was filled with the sound of clinking glasses and laughter.

Maidens beautiful as flowers came to the wine altar front.

These young Great Demons, each embraced on both sides, where they were seated, turned into a land of wine and meat.

This scene, both extravagant and alluring.

Gradually.

Even the Yin God Venerables, their Divine Souls began to sway, Lord Yun Ling started nodding and shaking, beyond himself.

"Such strong Divine Soul Technique."

Xie Xuanyi held his goblet, softly expressing.

This music, this talisman formation, this wine, all hidden with secrets, Nether Sea Venerable in the talismans concealed his Divine Thought, in the wine also added Enchanting Soul Pill, once this Great Array activates, even Yin God Realm cultivators would become immersed...

All attendees knew, coming here tonight, it was hosted by Nether Sea Venerable, inviting everyone to enjoy.

Few would be entirely focused, maintaining a clear Heart Lake.

Even Venerable Yuan Huo was entrapped, drinking one cup after another incessantly.

In Demon Country, such revelry is nothing.

The higher the realm, the harder to get drunk.

Perhaps, only at Nether Sea Venerable’s place can make someone like Yuan Huo, this level of Great Practitioner, become disoriented, wholeheartedly forgetting himself, thereby briefly ascending to the peak of Paradise.

Of course, Xie Xuanyi was sober.

This talisman formation, music, along with the pill...

For Yin God Venerables it’s sufficient.

For Yang God, it’s truly insignificant.

Not to mention, he also has the Primordial Swallowing Boundary Stele, even if Nether Sea Venerable personally performed the Divine Soul Secret Technique, he couldn’t possibly make Xie Xuanyi lose himself for even a moment.

However.

He could only act at this moment.

Xie Xuanyi silently drank a few goblets, then lay down, feigning to be overwhelmed by the wine.

At this moment, a cold transmission suddenly swept into the Heart Lake.

"Xie Xuanyi—"

"You really are bold."

The transmitter was precisely Qilin Miaofa True Monarch sitting not far away.

With his eyes closed, Xie Xuanyi’s Heart Lake slightly trembled—

He looked with his Divine Thought.

True Monarch Miaofa didn’t look towards his location.

He declined the company of the maidens, drinking alone, watching the celestial dance before the talisman curtain of the hall.

The previous claim by True Monarch that he wanted to find the disciple of Chi Huang for a discussion wasn’t actually a lie.

However...

The one he wanted to find was not Yuan Huo.

But Xie Xuanyi.

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch did not hold back, directly exposing the identity.

To this, Xie Xuanyi was not surprised.

It was no secret that Cui Zhen and he were mixed together.

Even though the Qilin Miaofa True Monarch lived in seclusion, he was no fool. Seeing Cui Zhen, he could deduce the truth with little effort.

"Do you know that the Heavenly Phoenix Palace, Great Ape Mountain, and all the Great Cultivators in the Demon Country are hunting you down?"

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch lowered his eyes and indifferently transmitted a message: "Not only did you not retreat to the Da Sui Sword Palace in the south, you even dared to attend the banquet alone?"

"Thank you, True Monarch, for the high praise."

Xie Xuanyi calmly said: "The three-hundred-year-old birthday banquet of the Holy Emperor is so lively, how could I not come to support it?"

"Ha."

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch sneered coldly: "You really are not afraid of dying."

"I’ve already died once."

Xie Xuanyi also smiled and said: "Dying again is actually not a big deal."

Faced with Xie Xuanyi’s response, Qilin Miaofa True Monarch was dumbfounded and laughed involuntarily.

He did not expect Xie Xuanyi to be such a person.

Though secluded in the North Swamp.

But over the years, Xie Xuanyi’s reputation has grown too much. Even for this Direct Disciple of Zhao Chunyang, he had heard some.

The first Harmonizer in a thousand years!

The youngest Sect Leader in the history of Da Sui Sword Palace!

Most importantly, Xie Xuanyi successfully killed Sun Erosion!

Based on this point alone...

Though he held the advantage of age, in terms of realm and strength, the two were already completely of the same generation.

"You are injured."

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch said calmly: "In your current state, it’s very bad. As long as I send out a Divine Thought, you definitely cannot leave Great Ape Mountain."

"Whether I can leave Great Ape Mountain, it’s hard to say."

Xie Xuanyi smiled slightly: "But if you send the message today, Cui Zhen will surely die... Believe me, compared to ’Xie Xuanyi,’ these guys in the Demon Country want ’Mo Zhen’ dead even more."

"..."

Upon hearing this statement.

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch remained silent for a long time.

Xie Xuanyi was not worried about Qilin Miaofa True Monarch leaking the information.

If Qilin Miaofa True Monarch harbored malice, he would have already been surrounded last night.

He guessed vaguely in his heart that this conversation was likely just the other party’s probing of himself.

"You are an interesting person."

A moment later.

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch transmitted a Divine Thought again, silently drinking the fine wine in his cup, and said with some regret: "No wonder Cui Zhen is willing to entrust his life to you... It’s a pity you are a Human Race Sword Cultivator, one day, we inevitably will fight."

Just a few words of conversation.

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch was already sure in his heart.

Xie Xuanyi will be an even more troublesome character than Zhao Chunyang.

"Who can say what the future holds?"

Xie Xuanyi laughed freely.

"You are right."

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch stopped beating around the bush and straightforwardly said: "How did you get injured? Is it troublesome? How much of your strength is left?"

"...?"

This time, it was Xie Xuanyi’s turn to fall silent.

He didn’t expect Qilin Miaofa True Monarch’s topic to shift so directly.

"I plan to make a move on the Nether Sea."

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch spoke lightly, his tone completely calm, without the slightest ripple or tremor.

As if what he was about to do was not an assassination, but something as easy as drinking.

"Tonight?"

Xie Xuanyi frowned.

Attending the banquet tonight, his original intention was just to observe the true form of the Nether Sea and the internal strife of Great Saint Mountain.

Taking action is not impossible.

But it’s truly too hasty.

Moreover...

This talisman formation blocked layer by layer.

Is the one behind the curtain of the great hall truly the true form of the Nether Sea?

In just an instant, he received a reply.

Qilin Miaofa True Monarch’s response was resolute and without the slightest hesitation.

"Yes."

"Tonight."
