Chapter 127: Divine Sword 'Heavenly Mysterious'

As you waved the formation talisman in your hand, a complex ninth-grade trapping formation instantly rose up from dozens of kilometers away, entrapping both you and Bai Ruoxue within it.

This formation was set up in a rather cunning manner, not directly on the ruins.

Instead, it covered nearly a hundred kilometers around.

Therefore, even though Bai Ruoxue had sensed the presence of a formation talisman nearby earlier, she didn't expect it to be used to trap her.

After all, who sets up a trapping formation over such a vast area?

Such a large range would obviously reduce the effectiveness of the formation.

Of course, Bai Ruoxue was not panicked at this moment. Even though it was a complex ninth-grade trapping formation, its actual effect had already been greatly diminished.

She was fully confident that she could break it in a short time.

In fact, Bai Ruoxue was also quite puzzled. How did someone in the Southern Regions know about her, and even set up a formation waiting for her?

However, she knew now was not the time to think about these things.

So, Bai Ruoxue stared at you, sneering coldly, "Do you think this formation can trap me?"

Hearing Bai Ruoxue's words, you smiled lightly and shook your head slightly, "It can't!"

You knew very well that Bai Ruoxue was the daughter of Bai Moyu, who had set up the sealing formation in the Southern Regions.

How could his daughter's formation skills be low?

Although you knew that most of Bai Ruoxue's cultivation and memories were sealed within the Bronze Gate in the Eastern Regions.

But you still remembered that in a previous simulation, when you had the Calamity Body talent, Bai Ruoxue had used a formation to trap you outside the Valley of Flames.

This proved that Bai Ruoxue's formation memories were not sealed.

So, when you set up this formation, you knew it couldn't trap Bai Ruoxue.

Hearing your words, Bai Ruoxue frowned, feeling a bad premonition.

Knowing it couldn't trap her, yet still setting it up, clearly you had other intentions.

At this moment, you didn't waste any more time and directly flew up, attacking Bai Ruoxue.

What you needed to do was simple: capture Bai Ruoxue and find something on her that could lead you to the Heavenly Profound Temple.

As for why you didn't attack directly and set up a trapping formation instead, the fundamental reason was that the body technique manual you cultivated, "Wind Chasing Art," wasn't a high-level technique, and you feared you couldn't catch up with Bai Ruoxue.

As long as the trapping formation was set up, you believed that even if Bai Ruoxue's formation skills were higher than yours, she couldn't instantly break the formation you had set up over two years.

You just needed her not to escape instantly, and that was enough.

The battle didn't last long.

It seemed that Bai Ruoxue's senior brother was stronger than you had imagined.

But it made sense, after all, you had already received information that her senior brother was a figure even before Mo Jingtian and Lu Wuya.

So, Bai Ruoxue's claim that he might have been struck dead by Heavenly Thunder was likely misinformation.

After all, Bai Ruoxue's memories were sealed by Bai Moyu, so many things she said couldn't be taken at face value.

While you were lost in thought, the Heavenly Profound Temple finally fully emerged.

You hesitated for a moment, then took Bai Ruoxue and walked into the temple.

Upon entering the Heavenly Profound Temple, you didn't see any statues or other items typically found in a Taoist temple.

The entire temple contained only a single sword.

The sword seemed to have a few lines of small characters engraved on it.

You softly read the words on the sword hilt, "With my body, I forge the Heavenly Profound, the enemy shall not retreat, and I shall not return!"

As soon as you finished speaking, you heard a sword hum.

You looked at the sword in surprise, silently praising it in your heart, "What a good sword!"

At that moment, you saw Bai Ruoxue kneeling beside the sword, gently caressing it.

She murmured softly, "Heavenly Profound, long time no see!"

Hearing Bai Ruoxue's words, the sword shook a few times, as if greeting her!

Seeing this, you couldn't help but admire the sword's spirit.

You began calculating how to acquire this sword.

After all, you had never had a suitable weapon, although your Silent Destruction Fist was quite good.

But you knew that the War God Art included a martial sword technique called "Sword of Killing Intent."

And the conditions for cultivating it, besides understanding killing intent, required a good sword.

You felt this sword was perfect!

At that moment, Bai Ruoxue seemed to know what you were thinking and suddenly looked at you.

She said, "Don't even think about taking 'Heavenly Profound,' it has its own consciousness and won't easily recognize a master."

"Even... immortals can't force 'Heavenly Profound,' or they will end up with the sword destroyed and themselves dead!"

After saying this, Bai Ruoxue's face suddenly changed, and she curled up on the ground, starting to roll in pain.
