　　Although Xu Taiping had long guessed the Saber Ghost’s intention, when he heard the Saber Ghost say it himself, his heart still felt a little pleasantly surprised.
　　The Saber Ghost is different from Fairy Lingyue.
　　Whether he is willing to help Xu Taiping depends entirely on his mood, and no one else can influence it at all.
　　Xu Taiping immediately thanked and said：
　　“Then I will trouble Senior Saber Ghost.”
　　Upon hearing this, the Saber Ghost waved his hand and said：
　　“I’m not helping for nothing either.”
　　Xu Taiping’s heart tightened, and then he asked：
　　“What conditions does Senior have? Just mention them.”
　　If it could help him improve his saber skills further, as long as the conditions were not too excessive, Xu Taiping was still willing to agree.
　　The Saber Ghost seemed to have already thought of this condition, and almost blurted it out：
　　“After your seclusion this time, lend me this physical body of yours for a use！”
　　As soon as he heard this, Xu Taiping immediately frowned.
　　The incident of the Saber Ghost’s attempt to seize his body back then was still vivid in his mind. Lending his body to him was no different from sending a sheep into the tiger’s mouth？
However, Xu Taiping did not directly refuse but test ly asked:
　　“Senior, what do you want to use this physical body of mine for？”
The Saber Ghost saw through Xu Taiping’s thoughts at a glance and immediately curled his lips, saying somewhat disdainfully:
　　“Kid, put your heart at ease. I have no interest in seizing your body anymore！”
　　Xu Taiping could only force a smile.
　　The Saber Ghost didn’t continue to keep Xu Taiping in suspense. With a cold snort, he explained：
　　“You brat also know that the way for this strand of my remnant soul to recover is to test my saber skills with others.”
　　“But the speed at which your saber skills improve is really slow. Testing my saber skills with you is of no great use to me.”
　　When he heard this, Xu Taiping smiled helplessly and said：
　　“You don’t have to be so direct.”
　　Actually, the speed at which Xu Taiping’s saber skills improve is definitely not slow. But it’s a pity that the Saber Ghost’s saber skills are really much higher than his.
　　The Saber Ghost gave Xu Taiping a contemptuous look and then continued：
　　“Therefore, I want to borrow your physical body to challenge the current number one saber cultivator in the Upper Clear Realm and see if the speed at which my soul recovers slows down when testing my saber skills with him.”
　　After hearing the Saber Ghost’s reason, Xu Taiping thought for a moment and then frowned and said：
　　“Senior Saber Ghost, if this is the reason, then this junior can indeed lend you this physical body for a while.”
　　Although the relationship between him and the Saber Ghost is far from as close as that with the Spirit Moon Fairy.
　　But after getting along for these years, he still has some understanding of the Saber Ghost and knows that what he just said is not false.
　　More importantly, compared to when he was almost taken over by the Saber Ghost back then, he has already mastered many means to restrain the Saber Ghost.
　　Therefore, in order to improve the saber technique, it is not impossible to lend this body to the Saber Ghost for a use.
　　However, Xu Taiping immediately changed the topic and said with a helpless smile：
　　But Saber Ghost senior, your battle with the number one saber cultivator in the Upper Clear Realm is not a simple saber test. Before making full preparations, I can’t satisfy you.
　　The Saber Ghost rolled his eyes at Xu Taiping again and then said unhappily：
　　Do you think this old man is a three-year-old child？ How could this old man not understand such a thing！
　　The Saber Ghost continued to say：
　　Don’t worry, as long as you can lend that concrete soul to this old man for a use, this old man will naturally take care of other things properly for you！
　　Since the Saber Ghost had made such a promise, Xu Taiping had nothing more to say.
　　So he nodded and said：
　　Then it’s settled like this. Senior, you supervise this clone of mine to practice the saber, and I will lend this concrete soul to senior for you to fight against the number one saber cultivator in the Upper Clear Realm.
　　The Saber Ghost nodded upon hearing this, and then said expressionlessly while stretching his muscles and bones：
　　Alright, leave this clone behind and you can scram.
　　Xu Taiping couldn’t ask for more.
　　So he thanked and then didn’t hesitate to withdraw his divine sense from the clone.
　　Boom！
　　And almost at the moment when his divine sense was withdrawn, his clone had its head smashed by the Saber Ghost with a single saber strike. At the same time, only the Saber Ghost’s stern voice could be heard saying：
　　The reaction is too slow！
　　Because the Xuanyuan clone is not an ordinary clone, the damage and pain caused by the Dao Ghost’s sword to the Xuanyuan clone were sensed by Xu Taiping’s divine soul without any omission.
　　It was only when Xu Taiping’s divine sense returned to his true body that this pain was alleviated a little.
　　Fortunately, when the divine sense returns to the true body, the pain on the clone will be blocked. Otherwise, I’m afraid I will be distracted when casting the Demon-Sealing Sword.
　　Xu Taiping rejoiced in his heart.
　　However, he also knew very well that when he recalled that Xuanyuan clone, his true body would experience everything that happened to the clone without any omission.
　　But there was no other way. If he wanted to obtain the experience gained by the Xuanyuan clone, his true body had to bear these.
　　So Xu Taiping didn’t think about it anymore.
　　First, he chose the bamboo forest in the inner cave of the Golden Court as the place for his true body to practice, and then he used his mind for two purposes, controlling both his true body and the Shiyuan clone in the Demon-Suppressing Coffin at the same time, and began to cast the sword.
　　It was different from last time.
　　This time, when Xu Taiping cast the sword, it was no longer just to cast a Demon-Sealing Sword that could remove the soul seal on his body, but also to cast a spiritual bone immortal weapon.
　　After selecting from the sword manual given by his master Lu Daoxuan, Xu Taiping finally chose the two immortal swords, Longyuan and Chengying, which were inherited from the Spiritual Bone Monument.
　　Xu Taiping actually had some personal motives for choosing these two swords.
　　Because it was the two swords, Longyuan and Chengying, cast by his master Lu Daoxuan that had helped him and Buyu escape from the pursuit of Jiuyuan and the group of ghosts in the Yunmengze Secret Realm all those years ago.
　　“Zheng！”
Xu Taiping took out the broken swords of Longyuan and Chengying, and then, looking at the two flying swords in the front of him with mottled scars on their swords and almost depleted spiritual power he smiled and said:
　　“You two, this time I will add two pieces of the copper from Shoushan to help you be recast.”
　　Of course, he was speaking to the sword spirits in the two immortal swords.
　　As soon as these words were spoken, the two flying swords immediately let out a burst of happy sword chimes.
　　Xu Taiping then said again：
　　“However, when the swords are completed, whether you can become the sword spirits of Longyuan and Chengying again will depend on you two seniors yourselves.”
　　Originally, after the immortal swords were cast, the Demon Emperor’s divine soul in the soul mark on his body would automatically become the sword spirits of the immortal swords.
　　So if these two sword spirits wanted to become the sword spirits of Longyuan and Chengying again, they would have to devour the Demon Emperor’s divine soul in the soul mark.
　　“Zheng！”
　　As soon as Xu Taiping’s voice fell, the broken swords of Longyuan and Chengying in front of him let out another sword chime.
At the same time, a column of sword qi shot up into the sky from each of the two immortal swords.
　　Then, two illusory figures of sword spirits, one male and one female, with peerless appearances, appeared in front of Xu Taiping.
　　After that, the female sword spirit said with extremely firm eyes：
　　”We have followed Ninth Uncle to slay demons for more than a thousand years without a single defeat. Even if we cannot win today, we will never allow the soul of that Demon Emperor to defile your sword！”
