Chapter 107 The First Manifestation of Divine Power in the Cold Light and Purple Shadow
Thinking of this, Gao Huohuo took the opportunity to express his own ideas.
"Would it be convenient for you to lend me that book as well? It would be more efficient for the two of us to study together."
Zhong Hanshang hesitated for a moment before handing her the book about setting up barriers.
Although this is a secret technique of their Qingyun Sect, it is likely that even if an ordinary person saw it, they would not be able to learn it in such a short time.
So it can't be considered that he was passing on the sect's secret techniques to outsiders!
Soon after reading the theoretical knowledge in the book, the two began to put it into practice, and without exception, they both failed at first.
As they practiced more and more, the two became more and more skilled.
Especially Gao Huohuo, although he only has the cultivation level of the first level of the Golden Core stage, he is becoming more and more adept at it.
For a moment, Zhong Hanshang regretted it. He hadn't expected that someone at the Golden Core stage could actually learn their sect's secret technique.
She was just as fast as him, which made him curious about the origins of the female cultivator in front of him.
“Fellow Daoist, I do not yet know your sect and name. I am Zhong Hanshang from the Qingyun Sect.”
Gao Huohuo feigned surprise and said excitedly:
"You're actually Zhong Hanshang? The legendary young genius, I've heard so much about you."
My name is Gao Huohuo. My sect isn't even at level six; it's just a third-rate sect.
Zhong Hanshang thought to himself: Cultivators with such talent would probably have been left in the sect just like him long ago, right?
What other third-rate sects could I possibly join?
It seemed this was just an excuse, so Zhong Hanshang didn't press the matter further.
He began to focus on how to set up the barrier, but unexpectedly, Gao Huohuo succeeded before him.
This once again broadened Zhong Hanshang's horizons.
He originally thought his talent was already top-notch, but he never expected that the talent of this person named Gao Huohuo was even greater than his.
However, her cultivation level was too low, and the barrier she set up was not powerful enough.
So, Gao Huohuo set up a barrier he had just developed in the space inside the stone gate.
After Zhong Hanshang succeeded, he set up an even bigger one outside.
As soon as the two finished setting up, the spirit sword and whip burst forth with dazzling light, illuminating the entire stone chamber.
At the same time, a deep and powerful male voice echoed in Gao Huohuo's mind.
"Gao Huohuo, now that we have formed a pact, from this day forward, the sword is my life, and the sword dies with me."
Upon hearing the words of the spirit sword in his mind, Gao Huohuo immediately retorted:
"Hey, aren't you saying it backwards? Shouldn't it be 'The sword lives as long as the person lives, and the sword dies when the person dies'?"
There was no response from her in my mind.
"Hey, what's your name? You should at least tell me! Otherwise, I might call you..."
"Cold light".
Before Gao Huohuo could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Han Guang's two words.
The Cold Light Sword and the Purple Shadow Whip—just from their names, they don't seem like ordinary weapons. But why are they both so cool?
Although Zi Ying was arrogant, she at least exchanged a few words with her, but Han Guang completely ignored her.
Who is the master? Who is the weapon? You can't even tell the difference between the king and the queen anymore!
In an instant, two dazzling, multicolored beams of light burst open before our eyes without warning!
The light seemed to carry a world-destroying, immense power. The moment it appeared, the surrounding air was instantly scorched and hissed, creating visible ripples of distortion.
With unstoppable force, like a surging tide of light and fury, it crashed straight into the first layer of the barrier that Gao Huohuo had carefully set up.
The barrier, under the impact of this light, was as fragile as paper, instantly shattering into shimmering specks of light that vanished without a trace.
However, the momentum of the multicolored light did not diminish at all; on the contrary, it became even more intense and violent, like a primordial beast that had been starving for a long time, roaring as it continued to sweep forward.
Just a few seconds later, the protective barrier outside, meant to conceal itself, was also powerless against the onslaught of the multicolored light.
Damn, it's just a simple appearance, does it have to be such a big deal?
Are you so afraid others won't know you two are semi-divine artifacts? Have you ever considered the life or death of her, the owner?
She's just a Golden Core Stage 1 cultivator. If she's discovered, can she still protect these two treasures?
A surge of multicolored light burst forth, illuminating the entire world with dazzling colors, so magnificent it was almost eerie.
It was as if all the colors in the world were being melted, sublimated, and then burst forth in a concentrated burst.
It was so dazzling that one could hardly look directly at it; all that filled one's heart and eyes was the endless splendor, so breathtaking that it made one's soul tremble.
"Purple Shadow, Cold Light, that's enough! If you don't stop, you'll be collecting my corpses."
As soon as Gao Huohuo finished speaking, the multicolored light disappeared in an instant.
However, those outside witnessed the astonishing sight of the five-colored divine light appearing, and they all headed towards the dark river.
"Fellow Daoist Gao, look at your two weapons. They are radiant with spiritual light and full of precious energy. Their grade must be quite high."
In my opinion, they've probably already reached the transcendent realm of semi-divine artifacts, haven't they?
Zhong Hanshang's eyes were filled with amazement and curiosity as he asked.
Gao Huohuo was staring anxiously at the two gleaming weapons when Zhong Hanshang's sudden question snapped him back to reality.
Then it suddenly dawned on me that there was such a "witness" next to me!
At that moment, her mind raced, and she quickly devised a plan of action.
To simply silence them and destroy the evidence? There's absolutely no chance of winning.
How about we try coercion and bribery?
But they come from a major sect and have seen all sorts of rare and precious magical treasures.
The little bits and pieces I have are nothing to be interested in, so this trick definitely won't work.
After much thought, it seems there's only one path left—to rely on acting skills!
Gao Huohuo took a deep breath, secretly gathering his emotions.
In a short while, her eyes became misty, and her gaze slowly turned sorrowful and grief-stricken.
Then, her voice trembled slightly, tinged with a sob and sadness, as she softly said:
"Fellow Daoist Zhong, you are indeed a talented person from a major sect. Your insight is truly sharp and discerning."
To be honest, even I don't know the exact grade of these two weapons.
From as far back as I can remember, when I was still very young, my mother solemnly handed them to me.
She held my little hand tightly, her face solemn as she earnestly instructed me that even if it cost me my life, I must protect them.
At this point, tears welled up in Gao Huohuo's eyes, almost spilling over. She paused briefly to compose herself before continuing:
"But who could have imagined that I would never see my mother again after that?"
My father, from the moment I was born, seemed to have vanished into thin air; I don't even know what he looks like.
My mother told me that these two weapons were the only keepsake, the last gift, that my father risked his life to leave me.
At this point, Gao Huohuo's beautiful eyes were filled with reluctance and determination, and she gave a sorrowful smile:
"Now that they are bursting forth with such dazzling light, I'm afraid I can no longer protect them with my meager abilities."
Very well, since that's the case, then I'll present these two weapons to Fellow Daoist Zhong today.
You are a renowned prodigy of the Qingyun Sect, with unfathomable cultivation. You are a leading figure in the entire cultivation world, and you certainly have the ability to protect them.
Only in your hands can they continue to shine, protected from covetousness and damage.
After Gao Huohuo finished speaking, he respectfully handed the purple shadow and cold light that had just flown back on its own and were buzzing and trembling to Zhong Hanshang with both hands.
His eyes were so sincere they seemed to drip with tears, and there was even a hint of pleading in them.
The hands holding the sword trembled slightly, uncontrollably.
It seemed as if he was genuinely worried that he was powerless to protect these two precious weapons, fearing that he might lose them if he was not careful.
"Gao Huohuo, I've only just recovered 30% of my strength, and you're already sending me away? Don't regret it later."
Purple Shadow was screaming in her mind, almost ruining Gao Huohuo's acting skills.
"If you two hadn't insisted on showing off, would I have put on this whole act?"
If you two could learn even a tenth of my humility, would I need to beg others like this?
Zi Ying was so shocked by Gao Huohuo's answer that she exclaimed in her mind.
"Gao Huohuo, how dare you say you're low-key?"
Every single time, it wasn't you who went up to them and poked them in the heart, constantly pushing their boundaries.
You're telling me you're low-key? What we did today was exactly what you always do.
