In the valley, tens of thousands of genius talents also looked up at Shi Wuheng. This Sixth Mountain Master of Lingjian Mountain was already a super swordsman with a resounding reputation in Qingzhou.
However, no one knew what treasure Lingjian Mountain, as the grand finale, would present this time!
Shi Wuheng looked at the crowd with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, a long sword appeared. The sword was three feet and seven inches long, with faint sword patterns on its surface, but it seemed as if it were rusted, without any luster or sharp aura. Compared to the royal-grade Jiugong Lingjian presented by the Ju Jian Sect, it was like comparing the heavens with the earth. This sword was truly too plain and unadorned, even making people think it was just an ordinary piece of iron.
Shi Wuheng said with a faint smile, “The reward from Lingjian Mountain this time is this very sword.”
Huh?
Just this sword?
What…
Many people were completely stunned.
What was going on?
Qing Siyu was also astonished and said, “Mu Qiqi made it sound so mysterious, but this sword… it has no brilliance at all!”
“Ye Wushuang, what do you think?”
Qing Siyu nudged Ye Wushuang beside her.
But at this moment, Ye Wushuang was completely stunned, speechless, staring at the sword with wide eyes, and murmured, “It can’t be… How could… the Tiyan Sword… How could the Tiyan Sword be here…”
“What Tiyan Sword? Ye Wushuang, what are you talking about?”
Qing Siyu was puzzled.
At this moment, from above, Shi Wuheng slowly said, “You might think this sword is ordinary, but let me tell you, this sword is named the Tiyan Sword, and it is a true Heavenly King-grade spiritual instrument!”
As these words fell, they caused a thousand ripples, and the entire valley erupted in a wave of noise.
Spiritual instruments are divided into yellow, mysterious, earth, heavenly, and royal grades, corresponding to the five realms of martial cultivation: body-refining, meridian-condensing, Yuanfu, Tian Gang, and Wan Fa.
Generally, a royal-grade spiritual instrument is enough to make warriors at the Wan Fa realm fight over it.
Heavenly King-grade!
It is a spiritual instrument that transcends the royal grade and is extremely rare in the entire Qingzhou. It is an item of immeasurable value that even the greatest figures above the Wan Fa realm would be extremely tempted by.
“Tiyan Sword…”
At this moment, the sisters Qing Shihua and Qing Siyu looked at Ye Wushuang in a daze.
“You, you… how did you know it was the Tiyan Sword!” Qing Siyu was stunned.
Before Master Shi Wuheng revealed the name of the Tiyan Sword, Ye Wushuang had already mentioned it.
How could this be possible!
Ye Wushuang had traveled from Liuyue City to the capital and had never left the Qingyun Empire. This was his first time stepping out of the Qingyun Empire, yet he had recognized this seemingly ordinary Heavenly King-grade spiritual instrument at first glance!
It was too incredible!
However, Ye Wushuang ignored Qing Siyu and turned to Qing Shihua, asking, “Is Lingjian Mountain the overlord of Qingzhou?”
“Yes…”
“Lingjian Mountain… what is its relationship with the Lingjian Pavilion?”
This question left Qing Shihua stunned for a moment, and then she replied, “I don’t know about the Lingjian Pavilion; I’ve never heard of it. As for Lingjian Mountain… it is indeed the most recent overlord of Qingzhou, but its foundation and strength are very strong…”
Ye Wushuang’s eyes were fixed on the Tiyan Sword.
It couldn’t be!
How could the Tiyan Sword possibly be in the hands of someone from Lingjian Mountain?
It should be in the hands of someone from the Lingjian Pavilion!!!
Ye Wushuang was completely baffled.
At this moment, Shi Wuheng continued, “I don’t need to elaborate on the power of this sword. Back in the day, a peak Wan Fa realm warrior from Lingjian Mountain wielded this sword and slew many world-class figures at the Guiyuan realm in Qingzhou, as everyone should know!”
“Now, we Lingjian Mountain present this sword, and anyone who secures the top seven spots can choose it!”
“However, we Lingjian Mountain also have our rules.”
At this point, the boiling crowd gradually quieted down.
“The genius who chooses this sword must gain its recognition. If it does not recognize you, then we Lingjian Mountain will not part with the Tiyan Sword!”
Upon hearing this, many people’s confidence was dampened. Even if they secured one of the top seven spots and chose this sword, if it did not recognize them, they would not be able to obtain it. Wouldn’t that be like drawing water with a bamboo basket, only to end up with nothing?
But… a Heavenly King-grade spiritual instrument was just too tempting!
At this moment, a genius from below shouted, “May I ask Master Shi, how does one gain the recognition of this sword?”
Hearing this question, Shi Wuheng smiled and said, “The sword you see now is not its true form. If you gain its recognition, it will transform into its original appearance!”
Upon hearing this, many people sighed. In fact, many of the senior figures and elders from the seven major sects had once witnessed the true form of this sword. It was truly… awe-inspiring!
Back in the day, a peak Wan Fa realm warrior from Lingjian Mountain wielded this sword and dominated the battlefield. However, in the end, that peak Wan Fa realm warrior was also devoured by the sword, meeting a tragic end. Without the sword’s recognition, one is not worthy of wielding it! This is the pride of a Heavenly King-grade spiritual instrument!
Thus, the rewards from the seven major sects were all revealed.
The top-grade fifth-grade spiritual pill, the Nine-Curves Tiancan Pill!
The top-grade heavenly spiritual technique, the Taiqing Tianyan Art.
The royal treasure, the Jiugong Lingjian.
The royal treasure, the Jiugong Map.
The top-grade heavenly armor, the Tianyan Armor!
The royal treasure, the Lihun Pearl.
And the Heavenly King-grade ultimate spiritual instrument—the Tiyan Sword!
Undoubtedly, the Tiyan Sword was the most terrifying and powerful, but whether one could obtain it was still uncertain.
Lingjian Mountain was willing to present this sword as a reward, and the other six sects were naturally willing to give it a try. Most likely, the top seven would come from the disciples of the seven major sects. If their disciples could obtain this sword, it would be a huge boost to their entire sect or family’s power!
A Heavenly King-grade spiritual sword is a powerful weapon that can make other major overlords wary, more valuable than any royal-grade spiritual instrument!
At this moment, Mu Junli stepped forward again, looked at everyone, and said with a smile, “Alright, the rewards have been announced, and now, the Hundred Nations Martial Contest is truly about to begin!”
As these words were spoken, tens of thousands of geniuses were extremely excited. Finally, it was about to start!
