Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#557 - Refined three flying swords in the late stage of Jindan

Leng Zizai's memories revealed the betrayers of the human race, but he wasn't certain which family had betrayed the Xuan Guang Continent. The only thing he was sure of was that it wasn't Sima Yi.

The Sima family bore all the blame, but in reality, the true betrayers were likely either the Murong or Gongsun families, a fact Leng Zizai was unaware of.

Li Chengfeng's gaze deepened as he pondered. Finally, he smiled faintly, turning that memory into nothingness.

Leng Zizai's memory was insufficient as evidence. After all, no one would easily trust the one-sided words of the Fire Demon Clan's young patriarch; they would only see it as sowing discord.

Li Chengfeng wasn't in a hurry to investigate the betrayers, as it wasn't directly related to his current goal. He focused on increasing his strength and consolidating the allied forces.

Even though the families of the Xuan Guang Continent were constantly embroiled in disputes, they were external matters to him. However, the reason he intervened was to protect the Xuan Guang Continent from the demons and the Evil Dragon Clan.

He upheld justice, vowing to eliminate both clans, but at the same time, he acted cautiously, avoiding reckless actions that would deplete his strength. After all, he still needed to reserve enough power to deal with the native forces of the Xuan Guang Continent.

However, Li Chengfeng was able to skillfully exploit their conflicts, making his allied forces stronger day by day. What he sought was not a blind expansion of numbers, but a substantial improvement in the cultivation of each warrior. This was his true goal.

With this in mind, he no longer hesitated. As the new year began, Old Demon and Little Vermilion Bird immediately appeared before him. The two fire spirits were extremely excited about the upcoming weapon refinement, as each refinement brought them great benefits.

Li Chengfeng decisively took out the Myriad Poison Demon Heart. The poisonous gas spread, causing Old Demon and Little Vermilion Bird to fly to his shoulders in disgust.

Old Demon praised, "This Myriad Poison Demon Heart is truly extraordinary. It contains the bloodline of a true demon from the Demon Clan, and it gathers all kinds of poisons in one body. It will definitely be refined into a magical treasure with endless potential."

Little Vermilion Bird curled its lip and said, "It's really disgusting. If you use it to forge a sword, wouldn't the enemy be poisoned to death if they were hit by it?"

Old Demon laughed and replied, "That's exactly the idea. Our master acts decisively and is never indecisive."

Li Chengfeng ignored their banter and devoted himself to weapon refinement.

Under the carving of countless evolution formations and restrictions, the demon heart became more powerful and refined.

Afterward, they handed it over to Old Demon, who used secret techniques to temper it with the scorching flames below.

This time, Little Vermilion Bird and Old Demon jointly controlled the flames: Old Demon controlled the Yin-cold fire, as thin as a gossamer thread, yet containing layers of fierce flame power; Little Vermilion Bird summoned the extreme Yang fire. The two fires intertwined, carefully forging the demon heart.

Li Chengfeng once again displayed his ingenious skills. The little artifact spirit flew out from the Self-Creation Realm space, further dividing and refining the sword embryo.

He meticulously engraved formations on the sword embryo, then perfectly fused it with the demon heart, throwing it into the sword furnace and beginning the intense refining process.

Li Chengfeng once again took out the Fire Demon Clan's treasure—the Fire Ruyi. Then, the Heavenly Dao Brush danced, quickly engraving on it, and soon completed the drawing of the great formation.

He handed the finished product to Old Demon, and then replicated the same formation with the sword embryo. Instantly, the two items began to merge and were once again thrown into the sword furnace to undergo the baptism of the fierce flames.

Immediately afterward, he grasped the altar. Although this altar was as small as a palm, it was lifelike. Li Chengfeng used restrictions and formations to deeply condense the altar, then fused it with the simple stele and threw them into the sword furnace together.

Three swords were slowly forged in the alternating cold and hot flames, removing impurities and retaining the essence.

With a thought, thirteen flying swords soared into the sky, each thrown into the corresponding sword furnace, also undergoing intense tempering.

Each time Li Chengfeng improved, he would rearrange the formations, seeking the unity of all laws, making them more harmonious and unified.

Time passed, and a year flew by in the blink of an eye. With a resounding sword cry,

the Fire Demon Sword broke out of the furnace, surrounded by flames and monstrous demonic energy. It flew up and down, showing its power, and happily revolved around Li Chengfeng, as if celebrating its birth.

Immediately afterward, there was another sword cry. A Myriad Poison Demon Heart Sword soared into the air with green poisonous mist. The disgusting aura instantly filled the air, and wherever it touched, the rocks were corroded.

Finally, the Inter-Dimensional Sword rang out, its sound sometimes near and sometimes far, as if crossing the boundaries of space and time. This sword could kill enemies across dimensions, and its whereabouts were uncertain.

Known for its speed and power, it could even open a portal with a single strike. Its powerful functions were truly amazing.

Li Chengfeng laughed. With a slight thought and a flick of his fingertips, a light gate suddenly appeared. Its teleportation ability could reach at least ten thousand miles, demonstrating the extraordinary nature of this Inter-Dimensional Sword.

The remaining thirteen flying swords also flew over, joining the three swords, shuttling like swimming fish, and finally entering Li Chengfeng's dantian to receive the slow tempering of his Yin-Yang fire.

Li Chengfeng's eyes were bright, and he immediately stood up. In the past six months, even in the past year, these flying swords had not only not stagnated his cultivation progress but had also promoted a lot of improvement.

Because a constant stream of power was constantly pouring into his body, the Unity of All Laws cultivation technique he practiced was compatible with all kinds of spiritual energy and accepted them all. Moreover, the three thousand Forbidden Armor Knights provided him with powerful assistance at all times.

In addition, the Heart Demon was released by him to search for demonic spies in the nearby area.

Anyone with a demon in their heart and sneaky behavior would have the Heart Demon sneak into their shadow, reside in their heart, and understand their dirty deeds.

Once a demonic gap was discovered, it would immediately devour their golden core to enhance its own strength. While devouring the other party's golden core, the Heart Demon would also absorb the other party's heart demon, making the demonic energy even more surging.

However, Li Chengfeng found that although he was progressing rapidly, he still seemed to be inferior to his original body. His original body could absorb power just by practicing swordsmanship, and with the blessing of the three thousand Forbidden Armor Knights, its growth rate was far beyond his ability to match.

When Li Chengfeng had a thought, the Heart Demon immediately appeared in his shadow, slowly transforming into his shape, wearing near-armor, majestic, and exuding a strange aura.

"Master, I have killed hundreds of demonic spies, including twenty-three Golden Core cultivators, and the rest are Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators. Now, Jixi City in the far west has almost no spies," the Heart Demon reported.

Li Chengfeng did not appear overly happy when he heard this, but said lightly: "Gaps are like weeds. The fire cannot burn them out, and the spring breeze blows them back to life.

Some traitors are hidden very deeply and are difficult to detect. But with your help, we will definitely be able to find them one by one. Now, it's time to leave seclusion.

I am going to start the second plan—to establish a Forbidden Armor cultivator drawing class, specializing in recruiting talents with unique talents in formations.

I will personally guide them to jointly create and test a batch of forbidden armor."

The Heart Demon agreed with this and suggested: "Master, why not also make some Heart Demon Forbidden Armor so that I can also draw power from it?"

Li Chengfeng smiled when he heard this: "This matter is not impossible, but it needs to be studied slowly and cannot be rushed."

Just walked out of the Doomsday Cemetery.

Long Tianqi was wearing armor and the moonlight was shining on his body. He walked over and said: "Little Lord. Sima Jiao is waiting for you outside. It's been a long time, he looks very anxious.

Li Chengfeng nodded and said: "Now that my flying sword is completed, something must have happened for him to come and see me!"
