There is probably no one in this world who understands how difficult it is to refine an immortal sword better than Gu Qingxi. It is hard for her to believe that the ancestor of the Xiao family has such ability.
Besides, if the Dingtian Sword is really an immortal sword, even if it does not recognize its owner, but only protects the Xiao family, the Xiao family has already surpassed the four major demon cultivating families and has become one of the hidden families. How could it still be in its current status?
"The Dingtian Sword is indeed a divine sword, not an immortal sword. It is only so powerful because of the ancestor's special refining method. However, no one knows what is so special about his sword refining method." Xiao Yutang also said
Having seen Jiuli Mingxu Sword, he guessed what Gu Qingxi was surprised about and explained again.
The more Gu Qingxi listened, the more surprised she became. She was really interested in the method of refining the Dingtian Sword. However, Xiao Yutang saw her thoughts and gave this answer in advance that was not an answer. Of course, she could not continue to ask further.
"Then, what's different about the test of the Dingtian Sword?" After a pause, Gu Qingxi returned to the topic.
Knowing that the Dingtian Sword could exert a sword power comparable to the peak of fusion without relying on the sword master, she did not dare to be careless and her expression became serious.
"Other artifacts usually test strength, or talent and understanding, but the Dingtian Sword tests luck." Xiao Yutang said.
"Luck?" Gu Qingxi was a little confused.
"Well, it's luck." Xiao Yutang nodded and said solemnly, "Not long after the first head of the family passed away, people started to come to challenge the Xiao family.
Among them are demon cultivators and people from the immortal sect. Most of them want to use the Xiao family as a stepping stone to gain fame and fortune. Some are instigated by other aristocratic families and want to use this method to disturb our Xiao family's peace.
In desperation, the second head of the family could only take out the Dingtian Sword and said that as long as he passed the test of the Dingtian Sword, he would be the most distinguished guest of our Xiao family.
As a result, those monks who want to step on the Xiao family to get the upper hand naturally have nothing to say, and those families with evil intentions can't find any reason to oppose even if they are unwilling to give up.
Of course, no one passed the test back then, and the Xiao family established its status second only to the four major demon cultivating families. No one dared to challenge them easily.
However, this rule set by the head of the family has not been abandoned. In the following thousands of years, people will occasionally come to challenge it. Of course, these people have no malicious intentions, they just want to see the legendary Cauldron Sword.
What is funny is that so many powerful people in the realm of gods and even the realm of integration failed to pass the test of the Dingtian Sword, but two Nascent Souls and a monk in the realm of golden elixir passed.
Only then did we realize that the Dingtian Sword tests neither strength nor talent, but clearly luck."
Speaking of it later, Xiao Yutang himself couldn't laugh or cry.
"What happened to those monks who passed the test?" Gu Qingxi asked.
"It's not that good. One Yuanying monk reached the middle stage of becoming a god and could no longer advance even half a step further. Another Yuanying monk went into trouble and died when he broke through to become a god. The golden elixir monk was the worst. He went to help him.
Yang Shan was looking for an opportunity to break through, but was bitten to death by a monster. It is said that when several fellow disciples found him, only a bloody leg was left with the teeth marks of the monster on it." Xiao Yutang answered.
"You're talking about luck, not luck, right?" Gu Qingxi curled her lips and said.
The so-called luck refers to the energy and fortune that runs through a person's life.
If you are lucky, you will be happy from beginning to end, your dreams will come true, and there will always be unexpected surprises.
Take the two Nascent Souls and the Golden Pill mentioned by Xiao Yutang as an example. If they are really lucky, then not only can they pass the test of the Dingtian Sword, but their cultivation path will also be smooth sailing, at least they can cultivate to
The Great Perfection of Divine Transformation.
How could it be possible that he could only reach the middle stage of becoming a god and then stagnate, or die in an attempt to break through the transformation of a god by going crazy and entering a demonic explosive body? How could he be so unlucky that only one leg was left after being chewed by a monster?
As for luck, there is no need to explain it. Someone is picking up a wallet on the street today, and is hit in the head by a flower pot when going out tomorrow. That is all luck, good or bad are temporary.
What Xiao Yutang said is obviously luck and has nothing to do with luck.
"We are a cultivation family, wouldn't it sound better to say luck?" Xiao Yutang showed a sly smile, and then said seriously, "In short, whether you can pass the test of the Dingtian Sword depends on luck.
Those who are lucky may pass, but from the death of their ancestors to the present day, thousands of monks have participated in the test, and only three have passed in total.
And if you are unlucky, even those who are strong in the realm of fusion will not be able to escape the fate of being seriously injured and their cultivation level will decline. If your cultivation level only reaches the realm of god transformation, your life may not be saved."
No wonder Xiao Yutang was so nervous. Xiao Yuhua and other juniors looked at him as if they were looking at a dead person. It turned out to be this reason. Only then did Gu Qingxi understand.
Although her luck has always been pretty good, she doesn't even think that she will have better luck than those three monks.
However, she had some doubts. Did the three people pass the test really relying on luck? Is there some other reason that is not known to the Xiao family?
"It doesn't matter if Fellow Daoist Gu doesn't want to participate in the test. It only takes a few days anyway. Once the family competition is over, I will go to Dingtian City and personally invite Fellow Daoist Gu to come to my Xiao family as a guest." Seeing Gu Qingxi fall silent, Xiao Yujin said.
He just wanted to give Xiao Yutang a blow and lose his face, but he didn't want to get into trouble with Gu Qingxi, nor did he want to get into trouble with the Renxin Alliance and the Zhendan Alliance.
If Gu Qingxi takes part in the test and is seriously injured or loses his life, then his feud with the Benevolent Heart Alliance and the True Alchemy Alliance will become even greater.
"With all due respect, Young Master Xiao, I happen to want to see this ancestral sword of the Xiao family, so I might as well give it a try." Gu Qingxi said calmly.
She has always been protective of others, and has always helped relatives but not others. What's more, Xiao Yutang is the one taking charge this time. Of course, she can't let Xiao Yujin's conspiracy succeed.
More importantly, she was really curious about the Dingtian Sword and wanted to find out what the relationship was between this weird sword and herself in previous lives.
"Qing Xi, the Dingtian Sword is not a trivial matter. You must not be careless." Xiao Yutang immediately became anxious when he heard this.
There is no way, according to the Xiao family's "Family Annals" records, there were too many strong men who died or were defeated by the Dingtian Sword in the early years, including many who were at the peak of Fusion and even the Perfect Perfection of Fusion.
So even though he was Gu Qingxi's most loyal fan, he couldn't help but worry about her.
"Yes, Senior Sister Gu, although other aristocratic sects also use divine weapons to test their disciples, our Xiao family's Cauldron Heaven Sword is really different and can kill people." Xiao Yuhua advised.
As long as he is a child of the Xiao family, who doesn't know how terrifying the Cauldron Sword is? Among the younger generation of the Xiao family, the one he admires most is Xiao Yutang, and of course he doesn't want to see anything happen to his friend.
