However, what Han Xuanji found somewhat regrettable was that Immortal King-level Magic Treasures did not seem to appear.
He thought it was probably because his current displayed cultivation was not impressive enough.
After all, he had deliberately restrained his Qi, and the Realm he outwardly showed had indeed not reached the level that could rouse those sect-guarding divine objects to resonance.
Just as Han Xuanji's thoughts were stirring, a sudden change occurred.
In the Void Realm ahead, endless treasure light receded like a tide to both sides, and an ancient longsword slowly emerged.
The sword was unsheathed, but a biting Sword Intent had already soared into the sky, transforming into substantial ripples that spread out, intimidating all directions.
In an instant, various phenomena appeared.
As the sword light flowed, it seemed to evolve into a long river of the Dao of the Sword that spanned ancient and modern times, with surging waves, each wave representing a supreme Dao of the Sword.
This was the main body of the "Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword" that he had obtained from the sign-in just now.
Compared to the one in the System space, this Immortal Sword before him carried an even greater aura of aged vicissitudes, and the ancient killing intent, accumulated over eons, almost solidified the surrounding Void Realm.
Then, a faint and vast voice slowly rose, resonating simultaneously through every inch of space.
"New Disciple, are you from the Sword Lineage?"
The voice was calm, yet it carried an indifferent scrutiny of all things.
Immortal Artifacts possess spirits, but for them to develop a complete self-awareness is extremely difficult; firstly, it requires the accumulation of ages and the blessings of Opportunity.
Secondly, their master must be willing.
Evidently, the Sword Spirit of this Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword had already reached an extremely high level.
Although its strength was not comparable to a supreme Immortal King, if it unleashed its full power, it would at least possess strength far exceeding a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Even if the Juniors were incompetent, with so much Legacy, unless they offended a top-tier expert at the Immortal King level, it would be truly difficult for them to decline.
Han Xuanji pondered, then cupped his hands in a bow, neither servile nor overbearing, saying:
"Junior Han Xuanji, a Disciple of the Dan Meridian, not a Disciple of the Sword Lineage."
"A Dan Meridian Disciple… also possesses such Sword Dao cultivation?"
The Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword Spirit was somewhat surprised:
"However, since you cultivate the Supreme Heaven Sword Dao, you can also be considered a successor of my Zenith Sky lineage."
The Sword Spirit's voice carried a hint of subtle inquiry.
It could feel that within this young Disciple, there seemed to be a dormant, extremely pure Sword Intent; though hidden and unreleased, it caused a subtle resonance in this divine sword, which had once accompanied the Zenith Sky Sword Ancestor in battles across the four directions.
"Han Xuanji, your ability to enter this treasure vault and behold me signifies your Opportunity, but I need to test your Dao of the Sword…"
The Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword Spirit's voice was grand and ancient.
Just then, another gentle and grand voice resonated from deep within the treasure vault:
"Zenith Sky, you old killer, don't scare the Junior."
Before the words finished, a simple mirror's phantom appeared on the other side, its light soft, as if it could illuminate all confusion in one's Heart-Nature; it was the Artifact Spirit of another Immortal King-level Immortal Artifact, the "Mirror of Heaven."
The Mirror Spirit looked at Han Xuanji, its gaze filled with curiosity and scrutiny.
As Shou Xu had said, this child's Heart-Nature indeed had extraordinary qualities, and to be able to make Zenith Sky voluntarily appear was even rarer.
Moreover, his aura was young, and compared to their ages, calling him an infant would be an overstatement.
To have such profound Dao attainments at this Realm and age was simply terrifying; he could even trigger the Dao resonance of numerous Magic Treasures, which was what surprised him even more.
One must know that the Dao of Cultivation already consumed much of a Cultivator's energy and Comprehension Ability; to be able to master so many Daos was extremely rare.
Most importantly, it also couldn't reflect his past life's origins.
Was his past life too terrifying for even it to see through, or was he truly a miracle of the myriad heavens?
Regardless, the Mirror of Heaven was quite satisfied.
"Which Magic Treasure here has caught your eye?"
"It's not that we look down on you, but with your cultivation, you cannot yet wield an Immortal King-level Immortal Artifact. If you achieve the Dao of Great Luo in the future, I would be willing to lend you a hand."
The Mirror of Heaven was quite frank.
This attitude even surprised the Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword.
Although this mirror liked to play the good guy, it had never said such things before, and had even privately told him that these Dao children would struggle to even achieve Taiyi Golden Immortal.
It never expected it to think so highly of this young man.
"That's also true…"
Han Xuanji understood in his heart.
The Immortal Artifacts rewarded by the System, without their Artifact Spirits, could not exert their power as fully as these main bodies.
However, Han Xuanji felt no disappointment; his primary objective had already been achieved.
"Leaving empty-handed like this doesn't seem right."
Han Xuanji mused silently.
He then looked at the many Magic Treasures, each vying to display itself to him, like peacocks fanning their tails.
For a moment, he found it somewhat difficult to choose.
After all, to him, top-grade Immortal Artifacts were just… that.
Seeing Han Xuanji lost in thought, the Mirror of Heaven said:
"Judging by your appearance, you seem to already possess treasures, so it appears these are not fated for you."
"Since that's the case, why don't the two of us guide you? How much you comprehend will be up to you."
"Oh, and you can also observe the Dao Rhythms on these artifacts."
"What do you think?"
Han Xuanji's heart stirred upon hearing this.
These two Artifact Spirits were of extremely high rank; their strength was even greater than that of the Leader. The Sword Dao level of the Zenith Sky Sword Spirit was certainly not comparable to the Zenith Sky Sword Ancestor, but it was likely stronger than the Chief of the Sword Lineage, Jade Profound Immortal Revered. And the Mirror of Heaven was likewise skilled in Daos such as Karma.
As for those top-grade Immortal Artifacts, many of their masters were also top-tier experts at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and their Dao insights were inscribed upon them, which would also greatly benefit him.
Although the many treasures obtained through sign-in could also provide insights.
But one is like a teacher giving you a lecture, and the other is letting you read a book yourself; naturally, they are not the same.
Han Xuanji immediately composed himself, no longer hesitating, and nodded:
"Thank you for your kindness, Seniors; Junior would be honored!"
"Good."
The voice of the Town Dao Zenith Sky Sword Spirit rang out, carrying a hint of satisfaction.
If he could guide a great Sword Dao powerhouse, it would also bring him a sense of accomplishment.
Before the words finished, the Sword Dao long river anomaly that spanned the Void Realm suddenly converged, transforming into an extremely condensed Sword Intent, not targeting Han Xuanji's Physical Body, but directly pointing at his Sword Heart and Sea of Consciousness.
At this instant, Han Xuanji seemed to see a towering figure, holding the Zenith Sky Sword, cleaving through Chaos, separating the clear from the turbid; wherever the sword light reached, all laws became empty.
"Watch closely! Supreme Heaven Sword Dao, slays illusions, slays restraints, slays destiny, slays the Dao!"
"Only with nothing unshakable in one's Heart-Nature can the sword be limitless!"
The Sword Spirit's voice was like a great bell, every word containing supreme Sword principles.
Although the Legacy of the "Supreme Heaven Sword Dao" he had previously obtained was complete, what the Sword Spirit was demonstrating at this moment was that divine charm, the will and spirit of the Sword Ancestor who created the Supreme Heaven Sword Dao!
...Outside.
"This kid, it's been a month, why hasn't he come out yet?"
Immortal Lord Yunmiao wondered.
"Could it be that he can't find anything good inside?"
"That shouldn't be; if he can gain the approval of the esteemed Seniors, those Magic Treasures, unless they're blind, couldn't possibly look down on him."
A series of distracting thoughts suddenly arose.
His Disciple, it seemed, could not be judged by common sense.
Looking on the bright side, it was most likely because he had obtained some Opportunity inside.
