Seeking the Flying Sword Path 490 Intrinsic Supreme-grade Numinous Treasure

Great Chang world, Grand Dominance City's Qin Manor. Inside a chamber.

Qin Yun sat cross-legged on a mat with the yellow-skinned calabash in his hand.

"Out."

A stream of light immediately flew out of the calabash's mouth and landed on the ground. It was the Chaos Pure Gold, which was about half the height of a person, but it clearly looked slightly smaller than before.

"If my guess isn't wrong, my Intrinsic Flying Sword will likely break through to the supreme-grade Numinous treasure level tonight." Qin Yun was reeling in anticipation. "My battle with Bear Mountain is in a month! According to the Great Chang world's time, that is equivalent to three months! It's more than sufficient for me."

"It's time."

Qin Yun placed the calabash to the side and waved his hand. A wisp of misty rain flew out of his fingertip and came to a stop above the Chaos Pure Gold.

As he circulated the formulation, a black-and-white chart surfaced over the Misty Rain Sword. It enveloped the Chaos Pure Gold beneath it as bits of golden points of light flew up and into the black-and-white chart before being absorbed by the Misty Rain Sword.

A sword hum sounded!

Clearly, absorbing the Chaos Pure Gold's powers was changing the Intrinsic Flying Sword to its very core.

Qin Yun waited… The refinement extraction took about ten minutes this time.

"Phew—"

The Intrinsic Flying Sword let out the faint sound of a gentle breeze as the sword's body began to change at a discernible rate.

Half a month of extraction finally allowed it to accumulate enough to make a true breakthrough.

"It's broken through." Qin Yun looked at his Intrinsic Flying Sword that had completely changed in appearance with a burning gaze. Now, his Intrinsic Flying Sword was pale gold in color. On closer inspection, there was a misty rain swirling faintly within the flying sword that was illuminated by a shimmering gold light. Amid the swirling misty rain were the hints of a massive world inside the sword. The misty rain and the massive world were manifestations of Qin Yun's Sword Dao.

And the hidden golden light was the manifestation of the Chaos Pure Gold's powers.

The Sword Dao at his level would normally only allow him to nurture up to a superior-grade Numinous treasure.

However, the Chaos Pure Gold metamorphosed the Intrinsic Flying Sword, making it transcend to the level of a supreme-grade Numinous treasure.

The Misty Rain Sword gently flew into Qin Yun's palm.

It looked ordinary as always.

However, Qin Yun could sense that the Misty Rain Sword contained a might that left even him alarmed.

"They are both supreme-grade Numinous treasures." Qin Yun reached out his left hand as the Yin Water Chains appeared in his left hand. He held the Misty Rain Sword in his right. "But the Misty Rain Sword is an intrinsic supreme-grade Numinous treasure. The difference in might is just too great."

Following that, he put away the Yin Water Chains.

Qin Yun looked at his Intrinsic Flying Sword. With a thought, the Intrinsic Flying Sword immediately flew into his body.

His Essence Soul Dharmic powers also naturally fused with the Intrinsic Flying Sword. After being tempered by the flying sword, they turned even sharper. However, as the founder of a new sword immortal lineage, Qin Yun's Essence Soul Dharmic powers had long reached a purity that was the peak of the Essence Soul realm! It could not improve any further.

"With an intrinsic supreme-grade Numinous treasure in hand, I can completely match the power of a Connate Numinous treasure." Qin Yun revealed a gleeful look. "Furthermore, this sword suits me best."

"However, I have expended about thirty percent of the Chaos Pure Gold to raise my Intrinsic Flying Sword from the superior-grade to the supreme-grade." Qin Yun looked at the large piece of Chaos Pure Gold in front of him. There was about seventy percent left, so it looked smaller. The ground to the side was littered with fragmentary shards.

"If I can attain the Golden Immortal Dao fruit in the future, I will let my Intrinsic Flying Sword refine the Chaos Pure Gold again. Perhaps it can break through to the Connate Numinous treasure level. It would then be an intrinsic Connate Numinous treasure. Of course, that's still far off in the future. Attaining a Golden Immortal Dao fruit is not that simple." Qin Yun shook his head gently.

He held up the yellow-skinned calabash and stored away the Chaos Pure Gold.

"I'll first head to Green Touring Palace to test the strength of my Intrinsic Flying Sword."

He did not dare test it out in his homeworld.

He was afraid that he might accidentally destroy Grand Dominance City. If that happened, he would have committed a grievous sin.

The blurry light descended as Qin Yun headed for Green Touring Palace.

…

Every Green Touring Palace disciple had a compound. Inside it was a chamber which looked ordinary, but was so sturdy that even a mighty figure could forget about destroying it! After all, it was a part of Green Touring Palace.

Green Touring Palace. Inside Qin Yun's chamber.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

The Misty Rain Sword circled around Qin Yun in flight. It generated ripples as it sliced through the void. The might left Qin Yun feeling apprehensive. "I'm not even using any sword moves. Just simple flight is already this strong?"

"If my Misty Rain Sword had this strength while fighting Old Fiend Fire Puppet, how could he have even fled?" thought Qin Yun.

"The other senior brothers and sisters received suitable treasures from Star Cluster Hall, and most of them are supreme-grade Numinous treasures. But how can they compare with… my intrinsic supreme-grade Numinous treasure? I was actually very lucky to resonate with the Connate Wonder, Chaos Pure Gold." Qin Yun felt rather lucky. The Chaos Pure Gold had indeed improved his strength greatly.

"However, I need to test out my sword moves properly."

"During the battle on the fifteenth, I'll still need to rely on my flying sword moves to defeat Bear Mountain." Qin Yun began to focus on practicing his flying sword moves.

His Intrinsic Flying Sword had not broken through according to his Sword Dao's nourishment. Instead, it had relied on an external object for the breakthrough.

Therefore, the Intrinsic Flying Sword had several charms that Qin Yun found difficult to grasp. It appeared chaotic and unfathomable, yet sharp and direct, with a will to slice through everything.

Connate Wonders… were just that wondrous. It was the sole reason the Intrinsic Flying Sword surpassed the limits that shackled it to reach a brand new level.

As Qin Yun experienced the brand new Intrinsic Flying Sword, he got more familiar with it and gained inspiration.

"The Chaos is baffling and hard to describe. It has infinite sharpness, as well as the will to slice through everything." Qin Yun looked at his flying Intrinsic Flying Sword. "Is this what my Sword Dao is lacking?"

Qin Yun pondered over it.

The Chaos Pure Gold was not only an item, it was a manifestation of the Great Dao's powers.

These powers were why only Connate Wonders could refine Connate Numinous treasures.

As for the Misty Rain Sword, it had a portion of the Chaos Pure Gold's Great Dao powers. It was something its owner, Qin Yun, could sense.

******

Days passed one after another.

High in the sky of the Great Chang world's West Sea.

Qin Yun stood in midair with his Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm enveloping a region fifteen hundred kilometers in diameter! He was freely casting the Misty Rain Sword within that boundary.

Now that he was familiar with his Intrinsic Flying Sword's might, he could use the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm's might to ensure that the Misty Rain Sword's might would not leak out.

"If any power leaks out, just one strike could split the West Sea," thought Qin Yun.

Of course, before his Intrinsic Flying Sword broke through, his Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm could easily destroy an area thousands of kilometers across.

At his level, rending the heaven and earth asunder was not false talk.

"Oh?" Qin Yun sensed something and put away his Intrinsic Flying Sword before waving his hand. The space beside him rippled out as it connected to a distant void.

There, a male dragon was looking at Qin Yun.

"Senior Brother Ao," said Qin Yun with a smile. Although the dragons were powerful in the Three Realms, they still could become disciples of Daoist and Buddhist mighty figures! There were three dragons in the Effulgent dominion that became Green Touring Palace disciples. Two of them were stuck at the sixth firmament Skyimmortal realm, while only one of them had reached the ninth firmament Skyimmortal. It was this Senior Brother Ao Fang.

"Junior Brother Qin," greeted Dragon King Ao Fang with a smile. "I've been busy these past few days leading the dragons in an occupation of Dragon Mountain world to reconstruct it. I haven't gotten the chance to thank you."

"Reconstruct Dragon Mountain world?" Qin Yun was astonished.

"Haha, yes. Dragon Mountain world suits us dragons the best," said Ao Fang with a smile. "Junior Brother Qin, after you utterly defeated Old Fiend Fire Puppet and company, the fiendish side stopped making attacks on the planet. Therefore, our occupation has been quite smooth. It's all thanks to you, Junior Brother Qin. Once I'm done here, I'll definitely visit you in person to thank you."

"Senior Brother Ao, there's no need to do so," said Qin Yun immediately.

"This matter is settled." Ao Fang added. "By the way, I heard that you will be battling Bear Mountain on Dao Exchange Platform?"

"Senior Brother Ao, you know about this as well?" said Qin Yun with a smile.

"The news has long spread. Many Green Touring Palace disciples know of the matter. There will probably be many disciples there to spectate the battle on the fifteen," said Ao Fang. "You have to be careful. Bear Mountain is not an easy opponent. He's not someone an ordinary ninth firmament Skyimmortal can compare with."

Qin Yun said with a smile, "I understand."

…

In a blink of an eye, it was the date of the sparring match.

It was already spring in the Great Chang world as vegetation was growing once more. The old trees in Qin Manor began to sprout.

Qin Yun finished the breakfast Yi Xiao made personally for him.

"Time to go." Qin Yun stood up.

"Dad, I believe you will definitely defeat that Demon King Bear Mountain," said Qin Yiyi.

"You have to be careful no matter what. In battle, it's hard to hold back. That Demon King Bear Mountain's body is powerful and resistant. It would be trouble if your body were to suffer a hit."

"My dear wife, don't worry. I will definitely win and bring back that supreme-grade Numinous treasure, Five Fires Calabash, so I can show it to you," said Qin Yun with a smile.

Yi Xiao could not help but chuckle.

"Yiyi, be good and stay home with your mom." Qin Yiyi instructed before he activated his disciple mark with a smile.

A blurry light descended upon Qin Yun before he vanished.
