Chapter 509: Chapter 482: Fate
Xie Peng got the first place chicken as he wished, but he just couldn’t feel happy about it.

Originally, he had imagined many scenarios in which he would use this divine ability just to scare them.

When it really came to the last moment, he would surely give up on that power and choose to face them with his true abilities.

However, the plot developed in a way that was quite unexpected for him.

‘I will return your Spirit platform.’ What does this mean? He doesn’t owe me anything, does he?

Just at that moment, Xie Peng suddenly thought of the words Xu Lingtai said before using the Illusion Arts during their duel at the Thousand Spirit Sect.

With this in mind, Xie Peng shook his head.

“Impossible. It was just a friendly competition. There were no deep-seated grudges. Who would use such an ability?”

Xie Peng persuaded himself, but deep down, he still felt a slight discomfort.

 

At the natural channel between the two realms of the Heavenly Refining Immortal City, Ye Xiaoyao walked out with a tired face, but his eyes revealed an excited gleam.

“Old Jian, our gains this time can be exchanged for two Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords in Heavenly Refining Immortal City,” Ye Xiaoyao said excitedly.

“Don’t get too excited, we still have a long way to go,” Old Jian said leisurely in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

When was it that he, who once looked down on Immortal Tools, got so excited about obtaining a few Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords for this foolish kid?

“I know, but this is a good start, isn’t it?” Ye Xiaoyao said as he took the Spirit Boat back to Immortal City.

Inside the Task Hall of the Heavenly Refining Immortal City:

Ye Xiaoyao handed over the required Spiritual Mines and Spirit Items for the task and exchanged them for a huge amount of Contribution Points.

He then entered the Exchange Hall next to the Task Hall.

“Fire Spirit Sword, Golden Spirit Sword.”

Ye Xiaoyao used up all his Points to exchange for two basic Five Elements Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords.

“Five Elements Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords, finally gathered!” Ye Xiaoyao said while looking at the five Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords floating around him, his words carrying a hint of emotion and bitterness.

“At the Void Refining Stage, plus the Small Five Elements Sword Formation, we can easily kill the Monster clan at the integration stage.”

“But this is just the beginning. Later, there’s the Big Five Elements Sword Formation, the Yin Yang Five Elements Sword Formation, and the Void Five Elements Sword Formation.”

“Once you have gathered the Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords and comprehended those sword formations, you can hunt down average Demon Venerables after reaching the Integration Stage,” Old Jian guided in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“Why is it all related to the Five Elements?” Ye Xiaoyao asked puzzled.

“Because it’s too late for you to start collecting other attribute Sword Formation Spirit Swords,” Old Jian sighed in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“Sometimes I wonder, by all means, you should have encountered several great opportunities with your destiny, and gathering a dozen Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords should not be a problem.”

“But your current situation doesn’t match your fate. Is there someone seizing opportunities from you?”

Old Jian mumbled again in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“How many times have you said that?”

“Aren’t I doing fine now?” Ye Xiaoyao said without caring.

“What’s so fine about your current situation? With me, the Sky Emperor, guiding you, you’re only at this level.”

“You failed to establish an influence.”

“You also failed to deceive others.”

“I even put those unparalleled Cultivation Techniques out there, but you still haven’t succeeded.”

“Are you going to rely on yourself for the rest of your life?” Old Jian said helplessly in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“What’s wrong with relying on myself? I have food and drinks.” Ye Xiaoyao was looking at the five Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords while responding to Old Jian in his heart, which had already become his daily routine.

“Forget it. Let’s take it one step at a time.” Old Jian eventually said helplessly.

Just then, a young girl walked past Ye Xiaoyao.

A faint fragrance wafted by, and Ye Xiaoyao squinted his eyes slightly, admiring the gentle curves of the girl’s silhouette.

Although he wasn’t a lecherous old man, he was a normal man after all.

“The little princess of the Tianlian Sect, this is also an opportunity. Are you going to take it or not?” Old Jian tried to tempt Ye Xiaoyao in his heart.

“Forget it. I can’t climb that high.” Ye Xiaoyao withdrew his gaze and shook his head, having a clear self-awareness.

“Is the girl pretty?”

“Is her scent fragrant?”

“Do you like her? Would you like her to be your Dao Companion?” Old Jian threw three soul-stirring questions at Ye Xiaoyao.

“You don’t need to answer. Your inner desires have already responded for you.”

“A true man born between heaven and earth should cultivate the strongest Dao and marry the most beautiful woman.”

“The combination of you two is your opportunity and also the opportunity for the Tianlian Sect.” Old Jian said in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“No matter what you say, she probably won’t look up to me. No matter how hard you try, it won’t work.” Ye Xiaoyao responded indifferently, having grown used to Old Jian’s absurd plans every few days.

“Who says she won’t look up to you? I…”

“I have a way, I have divine abilities that can help you solve it~” Before Old Jian could finish, Ye Xiaoyao interrupted in a guessing manner.

“Next time I have to change my lines.” Old Jian harrumphed in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“Actually, I think it’s quite good now, just being honest and doing tasks, exchanging points for Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords.”

“Although it takes a bit of time, it helps to hone my realm and sword array.” Ye Xiaoyao strolled around the Immortal City while chatting with Old Jian in his heart.

“Sigh, you’re such a lazy lump~” Old Jian didn’t know how many times he sighed already.

“After three days of rest, I’ll take on a few more tasks and go to the Demon World to see if there’s anything good there.” Old Jian.

“I know.” Ye Xiaoyao replied.

At night, in the small courtyard Ye Xiaoyao rented.

Ye Xiaoyao was drinking a little wine while admiring the starry sky.

“Old Jian, imagine how great it would be if Xiangzhou hadn’t been invaded by the Demon Clan.”

“The Heavenly Gate would still be there, and so would many friends.”

“At that time, my cultivation level had already improved, and I was going to find that woman who broke off our marriage and teach her a lesson, letting her know that she’s the real loser.”

“Looking back at that time, everything feels so different now.” Ye Xiaoyao said emotionally.

“What’s there to be nostalgic about? It’s just your exceptionally gifted junior fellow, Xu Fan, who’s worth paying attention to.”

“Unfortunately, I haven’t found him yet. Otherwise, would you still be short of Dao Artifact Spiritual Swords?” Old Jian grumbled in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“Old Jian, you’re so utilitarian. Didn’t you have any close friends when your cultivation was low?” Ye Xiaoyao suddenly became curious.

“I used to have, but after being stabbed in the back, I only wanted to become the strongest in the world. For that, I can use anyone.” Old Jian said indifferently in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“I feel you’re very lonely, and so am I.” Ye Xiaoyao finished the wine in his cup and stared at the starry sky, his eyes filled with a touch of loneliness and sadness.

“Your loneliness is true, but when you think about your greatest enemy in the future, it might lighten up a bit.” Old Jian chuckled in Ye Xiaoyao’s heart.

“That’s just your greatest enemy, it’s got nothing to do with me.” Ye Xiaoyao didn’t take responsibility for it, feeling it was quite far-fetched that he had even provoked such a legendary figure.

“Once I entered your body, your fate has changed.”
