Song Qingruo stood there in a sorry state. When she heard Huo Changliu’s words, she was nervous at first, and then she let out a sigh of relief.
“As I thought, junior Song really cares about junior Xiao.”
Huo Changliu stood there and observed song Qingruo’s reaction. Then, he said with a soft smile, as if he was deep in thought.
“He saved my life.”
Song Qingruo’s expression was cold as she said indifferently. Then, she raised her head and looked straight at Huo Changliu. She said, “What exactly did you do?
“Why did you attack him?”
“Originally, I had no intention of attacking him.”
Huo Changliu shook his head and said softly. His tone was a little regretful. “It’s just that he knew too much and overestimated himself. He was trying to investigate something.
“I’m also very sorry about this, but I have no other way. “But since things have come to this, it doesn’t matter anymore.”

He turned around and looked at Song Qingruo in front of him. Then, he said softly, “Junior Song, please go on your way.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his voice sounded very gentle. It spread in all directions and reached Song Qingruo’s ears.
Following Huo Changliu’s words, everything in front of her also began to change. The array formation in the area quickly opened up, and a brilliant light blossomed from within, enveloping the entire area.
The illusory image of a longsword appeared in the area. It was an illusory long sword, and its entire body was formed from numerous runes. It gave off an inexplicable feeling of unreality.
However, there was a brand new sense of reality in this illusion, making people feel that it was exceptionally unique. Regardless, this power was real and unreal. It was exceptionally powerful.
From the moment the longsword phantom descended, the surrounding aura fluctuated.
If one enlarged their field of vision and placed it in the entire Sword Tomb, they would discover that at that moment, the Gen Qi in the entire Sword Tomb was fluctuating. It was like some unique power was pulling it toward this place.
And the one that caused all of this was none other than the illusory longsword in front. It was absorbing the Gen Qi and power of the entire Sword Tomb to make up for itself.
Not only that, besides the illusory longsword, all the coffins on the side also had changed. The corpses were glowing. The origin of the corpses bloomed, surging towards the longsword in front of them.
In an instant, runes appeared, and the profound law was displayed, giving people a terrifying feeling as if they were facing the world.
Looking at the sword’s power, even Song Qingruo couldn’t help but be stunned, and her body started to throb.
She was an innate sword body, and she already had a strong affinity with the Weapon Spirit. Thus, she immediately felt the terrifying power contained in the sword.
Although the sword was illusory, the feeling was too terrifying. Once it was unleashed, it could probably destroy the entire sword tomb and reach a terrifying state.
“This is… the Sword of Buddha?”
Looking at the illusory sword gradually taking shape, Song Qingruo’s body trembled, and she couldn’t help but speak.
“That’s right.”
Huo Changliu nodded and smiled, “Since ancient times, there has been a difference between heaven, earth, and man.”
“Just like the Qionghua Sword of the Qionghua Sword Sect, those who have survived the war and become a Heavenly Weapon will become a Mortal Heavenly Weapon.
“As for the Sky and Earth Heavenly Weapons, they are formed by the heaven and earth. Each of them has its unique origin.
“No matter when, even if its body is broken, its origin will remain in the world and will not disappear.
“The Sword of Buddha in front of us is one of them.”
As he spoke, he turned around and looked at the Sword of Buddha gradually taking shape in front of him. He sighed, “Ten thousand years ago, the Sword of Buddha wielder fought with the Tengu Sword Sovereign. The two of them fought in the wilderness.”
“In the end, the Sword of Buddha was broken, and the Tengu Swordmaster became a Heavenly Venerate.
“However, as an Earth Heavenly Weapon, even if the Sword of Buddha was broken, its origin will still exist and not disappear.
“After many years of searching, my sect finally found the Sword of Buddha in this place.
“Although the Sword of Buddha was found, it was already broken. There was only its origin, sealed by the Sword Tomb. Therefore, it couldn’t be taken away.
“The only way to take it away would be to condense its body and take shape again. Only then would it not be restricted and suppressed by the sword tomb.”
He spoke softly and told Song Qingruo the history of the longsword in front of him.
“So, you planned to sneak into the Qionghua Sword sect and use the secret passage between the Qionghua Sword Sect and the Sword Tomb to achieve your goal?”
In front of him, Song Qingruo spoke coldly. Her eyes were fixed on Huo Changliu.
“That’s right.”
Huo Changliu nodded. He did not deny Song Qingruo’s words. Instead, he admitted, “From the current results, I am undoubtedly right.
“Junior Song, do you have anything else to
say?”
He turned around and looked at Song Qingruo in front of him. A smile appeared on his face as he spoke softly.
“If you don’t have anything else, then please continue on your way.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Qi in the surroundings immediately changed. Under the control of the people at the side, the formation in front of them began to change.
Outside the eight coffins, a new position was vacated. A huge attractive force was displayed, directly attracting Song Qingruo’s entire body over and landing on that position.
Then, mysterious runes tore through the air and fixed Song Qingruo there. They began to refine her origin and slowly extract it.
Without a doubt, this was an extremely painful process. It was even more painful than digging one’s heart out and breaking bones.
Song Qingruo’s face quickly turned pale, losing all color. But even so, she still did not say a word and silently endured the pain.
Huo Changliu looked at Song Qingruo’s figure with some admiration. Then, he could not help but shake his head. “Unfortunately…
“Whether it’s willpower or talent, you were the best, junior Song…
“It’s a pity that we’re not destined to be the same kind of people…”
He sighed softly and said. Even if it wasn’t limited to the South Mountain, Song Qingruo was still an absolute prodigy in those prosperous areas with numerous spirit veins. Her innate sword body was enough to make anyone feel amazed.
Unfortunately, her status as the daughter of the Qionghua Sword Sect’s sect master had already determined her position to a certain extent. Not to mention that the Sword of Buddha had been revived.
To Huo Changliu, compared to Song Qingruo, the Sword of Buddha in front of him was more important. Therefore, he turned around and looked forward, looking at slowly taking the shape of the Sword of Buddha in front of him.
Runes were flying in all directions and eventually gathered on the sword before him to help it take shape.
The formation of the Sword of Buddha was not as simple as it looked.
Hundreds of years ago, the people behind Huo Changliu had already found the place where the Sword of Buddha was suppressed, but they did not take it out immediately.
During these hundreds of years, they gathered materials from all over and filled them into the Sword of Buddha. Then, they searched all over the place and even dug out many ancient god corpses. Finally, they gathered the origin of these different physiques.
The entire process took hundreds of years to achieve today’s ease. However, all of this was worth it.
As he stood there, Huo Changliu looked at the slowly taking the shape of the Sword of Buddha in front of him and the terrifying aura around him. This thought flashed through his mind.
As an Earth Heavenly Weapon, the Sword of Buddha was considered top-notch even among Earth Heavenly Weapons. Once it took shape, even if an ordinary cultivator obtained it, it would be enough for him to step onto the path of the chosen one. From then on, it would be an easy task to breakthrough
In fact, as one of the top-tier Earth Heavenly Weapons, the Sword of Buddha itself was targeted at the heavenly venerate realm.
After obtaining the Sword of Buddha, although there was no guarantee that one would be able to step into the heavenly venerate realm, there was no doubt that one would have more hope.
And this was enough. It was the Heavenly Weapon that countless cultivators yearned
for.
If Huo Changliu could obtain it, he would have sufficient confidence in his future path. No matter what kind of situation he faced, he would be able to face it head-on.
With that thought in mind, his heart calmed down, and he continued to look ahead.
