Anyone seeing you pull out such a rusty, broken blade would ignore it; some might even lean in and dare you to strike, mocking its chipped edge for being dull!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing imagined the scene and burst out laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he raised the broken sword and swung it a few times at the whetstone before bringing it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whetstone shot off instantly, slamming hard into the hen’s rear; the old hen flapped its wings wildly, clucking loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing’s smile froze instantly; he stared at the sword in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No way?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could such a dull blade hurt anyone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it have some hidden property, like tetanus?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing tried channeling spiritual power into it, but nothing changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did I spend such a huge cost just to get this thing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing’s heart sank halfway, then he began to comfort himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t rush, don’t rush—wait till tomorrow, use the [Daily Inspection] and see!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After putting away the broken sword, he took out the main prize of this haul—the jade slip of the [Cang Lei Sword Art], his excitement rising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jade slip was entirely silver, radiating a mysterious, unfathomable aura, as if containing boundless, mighty power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing took a deep breath and slowly pressed the jade slip against his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his spiritual sense entered, a vast, overwhelming force surged violently into him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him appeared an endless, boundless void, where thunderclouds churned like a furious ocean, lightning and thunder crashed like heaven collapsing and earth splitting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The might of the lightning seemed capable of annihilating the entire universe in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thick, dragon-like bolts of lightning raged wildly through the void, radiating dazzling, mesmerizing light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each bolt of lightning carried terrifying destructive power capable of obliterating heaven and earth, inspiring dread and making the soul tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, sword qi surged across the expanse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The piercing sword qi resembled countless peerless divine swords, slicing through the void with razor-sharp precision, emitting shrill, piercing cries that could split metal and shatter stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sharpness of the sword qi seemed capable of severing all tangible and intangible things in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless sword qi intertwined and converged, forming a vast, surging ocean of sword energy, its might shaking heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing stood stunned, immersed in this awe-inspiring vision, his heart swelling with boundless heroism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the intertwined images of thunder and sword qi transformed into lines of silver characters that sent chills down the spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cang Lei rises, spiritual power surges, Baihui opens, spiritual intent gathers, Shanzhong concentrates, thunder power is born…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing immediately sat cross-legged and began cautiously following the incantation step by step…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next morning, Zhou Qing, having cultivated all night, opened his eyes just as a knock came at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Four, Old Four—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the call, Zhou Qing was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He first checked his clothing, then rose to open the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he opened it, seeing Yan Xiao Hu’s haggard face, he was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Third Master, what happened to you?” Zhou Qing asked urgently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiao Hu looked at Zhou Qing with bloodshot eyes: “Old Four, I might be dying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What exactly happened?” Zhou Qing’s heart tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiao Hu said: “Thanks to your warning yesterday, I realized I really can kill plants with my urine—my urine is poisonous!

Who knows when he’ll return? Old Four, you’ve got to help me this time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I will—but Third Master, how can I help you?” Zhou Qing sat across from him and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xiao Hu immediately leaned forward, grabbing Zhou Qing’s hand: “Your nose is so sharp—you can smell even obscure substances like Ling Ao fluid. Just pee a little into this teacup, and let me smell it—tell me what toxin it is, so I can treat it properly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Third Master, let’s go straight to Shen Yue Peak and find Master—he’ll definitely figure it out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What if he can’t?
