"Do I have the need to deceive you? Besides, the Xuanyuan Sword now has merged with the Chaos Stone, and it's no longer the Xuanyuan Sword it used to be!" Emperor Jade said calmly.

"Chaos Stone?"

The Sword Soul's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Baby! Show her the aura of chaos."

"Oh, alright, Sister Emperor Jade," the Xuanyuan Sword's Sword Spirit replied in a childish voice, then directly released a chaotic aura.

"This is... indeed... the aura of chaos!" The Sword Soul was a bit excited and gave Lin Fan a deep look.

After a few seconds of silence.

"Alright! I agree to coexist with this useless Sword Spirit within the Xuanyuan Sword and recognize you as my master! But you must swear to help me reshape my soul, otherwise, I will still devour this foolish Sword Spirit!" The Sword Soul nodded, agreeing to Lin Fan.

"Sure, I swear, in my lifetime, as long as I am capable, I will help you reshape your soul," Lin Fan nodded and swore.

"Good!"

Seeing Lin Fan swear, the Sword Soul breathed a sigh of relief.

Then.

The next second.

It directly turned into a red light and surged into the Xuanyuan Sword's body.

"Boo hoo! Sister, don't eat me..." Within the Xuanyuan Sword, the Sword Spirit's small body shrank back.

"Hmph!"

The Sword Soul snorted coldly, ignoring her.

Seeing the two coexisting peacefully, Lin Fan breathed a slight sigh of relief, "By the way, what's your name? I can't keep calling you 'Miss', right?"

"My name is Yu Xu!" the Sword Soul replied.

"Yu Xu? Alright," Lin Fan nodded, "Wait for a moment, after I absorb the underground energy, I'll come out."

"Okay," Yu Xu nodded.

"Sister Yu Xu, please don't eat me... I'm very obedient, and very well-behaved..." The little Sword Spirit, a bit scared, huddled in the corner, speaking in a childish voice, with wide eyes and an expression so pitiful it made one feel sorry.

Now, although there is a Sword Spirit and a Sword Soul within the Xuanyuan Sword, the Sword Spirit, a little girl no older than four or five, was clearly frightened and dared not control the Xuanyuan Sword.

Overall, Yu Xu is now the one controlling the Xuanyuan Sword.

...

Outside.

Xuanyuan Changkong, Xuanyuan Ya, Sha Qianmo, Li Cangqiong, Lu Lingbo, Diwu Yun'er, Su Xiao and others had no idea about the transaction between Lin Fan and the Sword Soul.

In the eyes of these people, the Sword Soul successfully fused with the Xuanyuan Sword.

In a flash!

A powerful aura erupted from within the Xuanyuan Sword, increasing more than tenfold.

"Hahaha! The Sword Soul has fused with the Xuanyuan Sword! Wonderful!" Xuanyuan Changkong couldn't help but laugh, "Now, I am going to become the master of the Xuanyuan Sword!"

As the words fell.

Xuanyuan Changkong stepped forward excitedly towards the Xuanyuan Sword, intending to make the Xuanyuan Sword recognize him as its master directly!

"Buzz!"

In an instant.

A powerful wave exploded from within the Xuanyuan Sword, and just as Xuanyuan Changkong approached the Xuanyuan Sword, he was blown away like a leaf!

Moreover.

Xuanyuan Changkong spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Puff!"

"How is this possible! Why is this happening?" Xuanyuan Changkong's face turned black, shouting angrily.

In his heart, there was simply an urge to curse!

Xuanyuan Changkong thought he could become the first master of the Xuanyuan Sword!

But.

The Xuanyuan Sword rejected him!

For such a situation to occur, there are only two possibilities: first, the previous master of Xuanyuan Sword is not dead, but Xuanyuan Changkong immediately ruled out this condition. He personally witnessed Lin Fan jumping into the Magma Pool, dying with nothing left, so it is simply impossible.

The second possibility is that the Xuanyuan Sword thinks there is someone else present who is more suitable to be its master than Xuanyuan Changkong!

"Damn it! Ya'er, you try it out." Xuanyuan Changkong said in a low voice.

"Ah? Okay, Grandpa," Xuanyuan Ya responded instantly.

With a flash, she turned into a lovely shadow, flying towards the Xuanyuan Sword!

However.

"Puff!"

Xuanyuan Ya flew only less than a hundred meters away before being sent flying back, rejected by the Xuanyuan Sword, refusing to recognize Xuanyuan Ya as its master.

"The rest of you try it out!"

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Changkong's pupils shrank heavily. Damn it, could it be that the Xuanyuan Sword has selected someone who is not from the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan as the master? If it really is so, that would be terrible.

"Yes, Great Elder," the other members of the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan, seeing this scene, felt some excitement. If they were chosen to become the master of the Xuanyuan Sword, their status in the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan would soar!!!

Thousands of figures simultaneously flew towards the Xuanyuan Sword.

"Buzz!"

This time.

An even greater momentum exploded!

The people of the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan, one by one, were all sent flying away.

In an instant.

The atmosphere became eerie!

The other cultivators around, suddenly brightened, starting to discuss.

"What's going on here?"

"The people of the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan were all rejected by the Xuanyuan Sword? Could it be that the Xuanyuan Sword does not want to recognize someone from the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan as its master?"

"That's very possible!"

"Now's our chance!"

"Let's go! Let's rush in now. What if we're lucky and the Xuanyuan Sword recognizes us as its master?"

"Right!"

...

Many cultivators were extremely excited.

Immediately, tens of thousands rushed towards the direction of the Xuanyuan Sword, eyes filled with longing and greed.

"Swoosh!"

Instantly, a terrifying Sword Qi erupted from the Xuanyuan Sword!

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

These tens of thousands of cultivators, covered by the Sword Qi, were all gone in a flash, turned into a mist of blood, dead!

The people of the Xuanyuan Ancient Clan not recognized by the Xuanyuan Sword were merely injured, but outsiders not recognized by the Xuanyuan Sword had only a path to death!

Thousands of cultivators!

They... all died in an instant!

Moreover, the cultivation of these cultivators almost all exceeded the Saint Emperor level, people in the Supreme Realm, all dead in one go...

The extent of the shock is imaginable!

Silence.

A deadly silence.

Moments later.

"Hiss!"

A noise of cold air being inhaled was heard as the cultivators present finally reacted.

"Darn!"

"Is this Xuanyuan Sword too cruel?"

"Yeah! Damn! Thankfully I didn't rush in, otherwise I'd be dead too!"

Many cultivators cursed openly, while inwardly, they felt a wave of relief. Had they rushed in, they might have become corpses too.

At this moment.

Sha Qianmo's eyebrows moved, looking at the Xuanyuan Sword with a longing expression, arrogantly declaring, "Let me give it a try!"

After saying this, Sha Qianmo moved directly, walking towards the Xuanyuan Sword!

The Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly, Yu Xu prepared to control the Xuanyuan Sword and kill Sha Qianmo.

Suddenly.

Lin Fan spoke, "Yu Xu, don't kill him yet! Let him come over."

"Let him come over? Are you sure?" Yu Xu was stunned, a little hesitant.

"Hehe! Let him enjoy the moment, mistakenly thinking you've recognized him as the master! Then, at the crucial moment, give him a hard blow! I want to see what kind of expression Sha Qianmo will have at that time!" Lin Fan from the depths of the Magma Pool chuckled playfully.
