Yes, it's the He Hua Zi Zai Sword!
This is the name that emerged in Li Mu Bai's mind, the name of the sword technique he had just learned.
"He Hua Zi Zai, that name sounds familiar."
"I wonder how He Hua Zi Zai Sword differs from the original He Hua Zi Zai."
Li Mu Bai pondered, carefully digesting the information in his mind.
Then, he fell silent.
His expression grew even more strange.
His heart was filled with shock.
After processing the information, Li Mu Bai realized that this He Hua Zi Zai Sword he now possessed also had the ability to transform into others.
However, it wasn't about him transforming into someone else.
Instead, it was...
Summoning!
And this summoning had a prerequisite.
That is...
Any person or creature who died by his hand, he could utilize the He Hua Zi Zai Sword to replicate them.
To make them fully possess all the abilities and methods of the deceased.
"This He Hua Zi Zai Sword is something else! Though different from the He Hua Zi Zai I know, just this ability to replicate creatures is already incredibly overpowered. If I see two powerful individuals battling and one is about to die, I suddenly intervene, delivering a final blow to the dying one."
"Wouldn't that mean I could instantly summon a super-powerful being using the He Hua Zi Zai Sword?"
Thinking about this, Li Mu Bai's eyes became even more peculiar.
If carefully developed, this sword technique would be an ultimate weapon for deception.
Of course, it wouldn't just be used for deception.
That was merely one approach, a cunning strategy.
This sword could also be wielded in an upright, righteous manner.
And even then, it would be incredibly powerful.
"Following this sword technique, wouldn't it mean that if I were to see Chen Ping An's mother's soul tonight, I could simply strike her with the sword and instantly replicate Chen Ping An's mother's soul?"
"Thus, allowing his mother's soul to eternally live in this world."
"Although it would just be a replica, in truth, the He Hua Zi Zai Sword can be considered a rule-based sword technique."
"The replicated individuals are an evolution of the rules."
"They're indistinguishable from the real person."
"While these replicated individuals don't exist permanently, just like the Edo Tensei in a certain anime, they would dissipate after the technique is canceled. But every time I wield the sword, I can bring them back."
"In a way, as long as I don't die, those who perish by my sword will be equivalent to eternal life."
"This is an alternative form of eternal life!"
Li Mu Bai's lips curved into a smile.
His heart was filled with even more awe at the power of the Qing Ping Sword.
Although today marked his fourth encounter with the Qing Ping Sword, he was able to manifest the River of Sword Dao and resonate with the rules of swordsmanship during his second encounter.
It was simply the transformation of his body by the two sword qi.
He even suspected that he could have done this after the first sword qi transformation. After all, he realized back then that he had changed entirely.
He truly had no idea how incredibly astonishing this transformation was.
To allow him to so easily comprehend such a divine sword technique from the River of Sword Dao.
His respect for the original wielder of the Qing Ping Sword, the Heavenly Path Lord, had reached new heights.
However, this incredibly powerful Heavenly Path Lord and his equally powerful Qing Ping Sword...
Were defeated, their sword body cracked and on the verge of shattering.
How powerful was that unimaginable existence?
【Don't dwell on this now. Your primary focus should be to become stronger. 】
As he pondered these thoughts, a special message suddenly appeared in his mind.
It was from the Qing Ping Sword.
"Alright, I understand. I was just letting my thoughts wander and reflecting a bit."
Li Mu Bai replied in his mind, resolutely dismissing the jumbled thoughts in his head.
He stopped thinking about the Qing Ping Sword and focused on the present.
Looking at the eerie black blossoms floating in the void.
He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
One second, the Life Sword was brimming with life, filled with spring energy.
The next, the He Hua Zi Zai Sword exuded an eerie, ominous aura, almost as if he had fallen into the path of demons.
Those unfamiliar with it might think he had suddenly acquired some kind of demonic sword technique.
While the He Hua Zi Zai Sword employed strange methods.
It was absolutely not a demonic sword technique or any kind of magic.
This was the sword of eternal life.
Those who died by its blade could achieve a form of eternal life.
It was truly a sword of saints.
A sword that ferried the world to salvation.
"Master, what kind of sword technique is this? Why does it emanate such a chilling, demonic aura?"
As Li Mu Bai shifted his gaze to the void, the young girl Zhi Gui couldn't help but cautiously ask Li Mu Bai.
"What chilling, demonic aura! What kind of look is that? How can this be demonic?"
Li Mu Bai turned his head and glared at the little maid.
"Well, isn't this demonic energy? What else could it be?" Zhi Gui looked confused.
She couldn't help but take another look at the black blossoms that appeared, and the black qi on the towering trees and flowers.
This was clearly demonic energy.
And not just any demonic energy.
"This is the Primal Purple Qi."
"Huh? Primal Purple Qi?!" Zhi Gui widened her eyes, then stared at Li Mu Bai with a 'Do you think I'm stupid?' expression: "How can this be the Primal Purple Qi? The Primal Purple Qi couldn't possibly be black, and this is so dark, it almost shines."
Li Mu Bai tentatively said: "Is there a possibility that it's so purple it's black?"
“！！！”
Zhi Gui was stunned.
Her master was trying to pull her leg.
She had never heard such an explanation before.
Seeing Zhi Gui's reaction, Li Mu Bai knew she didn't believe him.
He couldn't help but sigh.
This He Hua Zi Zai Sword was indeed powerful, but this demonic energy was quite a problem.
However, as long as the sword technique was strong, its appearance was insignificant.
Once his strength grew, if he said it was the Primal Purple Qi, who could refute him?
Then, Li Mu Bai turned his attention back to the void and swung his sword.
As the sword moved, a torrent of demonic energy surged.
An even more chilling gale swept through the air.
The sight alone was enough to make one's scalp tingle.
It was as if a towering demon was about to emerge from the depths.
Seeing this, Zhi Gui couldn't help but swallow nervously.
She instinctively cast a few more glances at her master.
At this moment, she wasn't sure if her master was truly the reincarnation of an ancient heavenly deity.
This demonic energy didn't seem like something a heavenly being would possess.
Or, perhaps, it was because of this terrifying demonic energy that he was attacked by some deities and saints, leading to his demise?
In any case, this demonic energy was truly frightening.
If her master were to leave the Li Zhu Hollow Realm and recklessly use this sword technique, it could easily cause trouble.
Although in the world of cultivation, as long as you are strong enough, you can suppress everything.
But such terrifying demonic energy could easily attract the attention of others and lead to an attack.
Because this demonic energy was as if it had been generated from slaughtering countless beings.
It was unknown how many individuals had fallen victim to it.
