A hundred miles southeast of the Tianji Temple, in a mountain valley, Xiao Yun held a broken sword and cut it out one after another. The sword's shadow was continuous, and the sound of its sound was constant.

Xiao Yun didn't use any force, he just waved his knife. With the dance of the knife, Xiao Yun's body moved more and more with the knife.

After three consecutive hours of wielding the knife, Xiao Yun finally stopped. His arms had become numb, but practicing wielding the knife deepened his feeling towards the knife.

Although he cannot directly enhance his own strength, the deeper that feeling, the more Xiao Yun will feel the constant fusion between the knife and himself when using it.

"The formation of the pulse and bone of the sword gives me a unique advantage in practicing the sword. If it were in the past, not to mention three hours of wielding the sword, even a whole day of wielding it may not have such a feeling," Xiao Yun thought to himself.

The combination of blade pulse, blade bone, and blade soul is the most perfect blade cultivation foundation forged by Yun Tianzun with his lifelong effort.

Although Xiao Yun only completed the first two parts, the talents possessed by these two parts alone have far surpassed those of other sword cultivators.

Of course, having strong talents is one thing.

But without effort, he couldn't fully unleash this talent, so Xiao Yun set himself at least three hours a day to wield his sword.

Putting away the broken sword, Xiao Yun entered the desolate and mysterious territory.

Suddenly, Xiao Yun noticed that there were three more things in the ancient secret realm.

One armored beast, like a pangolin, was only about two feet long, while the other, about eight feet long, was surrounded by a blazing snake.

Isn't this Zhou Yu's second grade armored beast martial spirit, and Yu Wushuang's third grade Flame Snake martial spirit?

How could they be in the ancient secret realm?

"Can the ancient secret realm take away the martial spirit of the person I killed and place it in the secret realm?" Xiao Yun rubbed his chin and pondered.

It should be like this, otherwise how can we explain the existence of these two martial spirits?

As mentioned in the memory of Yun Tianzun, this ancient secret realm is the supreme treasure that transcends the Nine Heavenly Divine Realms, possessing the most mysterious secrets in the world.

If the time that Yun Tianzun had after opening it was too short, he might have already dug out all the mysterious secrets of the ancient secret realm.

"It seems that besides being able to evolve martial arts skills, another ability of this ancient secret realm is to absorb the martial spirit of the martial cultivator who has been killed by oneself."

Xiao Yun turned his gaze to the third thing, unable to help but show surprise on his face.

That was a knife covered in numerous cracks, with cracks all over its body, without any intact parts, as if it had completely shattered.

It's just that this knife is very unique, with strange and mysterious patterns all over its body. Each of these patterns contains mysterious and powerful power, and just looking at it gives a feeling of being intimidated.

"Surprisingly, it was disillusionment..."

Xiao Yun took a deep breath.

This sword, named Illusion, was crafted by Yun Tianzun after spending his entire life searching for many precious materials. It contains the top-notch martial spirit that Yun Tianzun once possessed.

Xiao Yun originally thought that Illusion had disappeared into the world with Yun Tianzun, but he didn't expect it to appear in the ancient secret realm.

But why didn't you see disillusionment before?

Is it hidden deep in the ancient secret realm?

Just as Xiao Yun was showing his doubts, the illusion suddenly turned into fragments, trapping the armored beast Wuling like a cage. Before the latter could struggle, they were absorbed by the illusion.

After absorbing the spirit of the armored beast, the smallest crack in the illusion healed slightly.

Then, disillusionment quietly disappeared into the darkness and completely disappeared before Xiao Yun's eyes.

"It turned out that it had really been hidden deep in the ancient secret realm." Xiao Yun suddenly understood why he had not discovered the existence of disillusionment before.

It will autonomously hide.

Xiao Yun stared at the depths of the ancient secret realm, feeling his chin and pondering, "It can be restored by absorbing other martial spirits within the ancient secret realm, so it has hope of complete recovery. Once it fully recovers..."

Illusion is one of the six strongest martial spirits in the Nine Heavens Divine Domain. If it can be fully restored, it will bring great assistance to Xiao Yun.

After all, the stronger the martial spirit that martial arts cultivators possess, the stronger their assistance will be.

The disillusionment during its peak period, when working together with the Cloud Heavenly Sovereign, was as powerful as two Cloud Heavenly Sovereigns working together.

"The existence of the ancient secret realm allows me to continuously obtain martial spirits. Those martial spirits can be provided to illusion, which means that illusion can be completely restored. However, it must be taken now, otherwise it will be difficult to take it back when it recovers."

Xiao Yun stared closely at the Flame Snake Wuling, missing the opportunity just now. This time, we can't miss it again.

Time passed by minute by second.

Xiao Yun waited for a full hour before his disillusionment reappeared behind the Flame Snake Martial Spirit.

Here we go!

Xiao Yun rushed over and grabbed towards Illusion.

Noticing that Xiao Yun was rushing towards him, Disillusionment quickly swallowed the Flame Snake and attempted to escape into the depths of the ancient secret realm.

If it were an ordinary person, it would definitely be difficult to capture disillusionment, but Xiao Yun has some memories of Yun Tianzun and naturally knows the temperament of disillusionment.

"Disillusionment, you come back to our Heavenly Lord!" Xiao Yun shouted in the tone of Cloud Heavenly Lord.

The disillusionment that was about to escape into the void paused for a moment, after all, it still had some consciousness of the Cloud Heavenly Lord. Xiao Yun took advantage of this and caught it.

At this moment, disillusionment reacted and frantically broke free.

The terrifying force is attacking Xiao Yun, but this is only his consciousness, not his essence, so he is not afraid of this force's impact.

Xiao Yun held on tightly and didn't let go. If he let go, he might not be able to catch the illusion the next time.

Disillusionment unleashed its power in a frenzy, attempting to break free from Xiao Yun. As the power was released, it shattered even more severely and could completely shatter at any moment.

"If you don't use it for me, why don't you just smash it completely?" Xiao Yun was so angry at the commotion that he became furious on the spot. You'd rather smash it than ruin it.

At this moment, disillusionment stopped.

Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, this guy finally understood.

Suddenly, a rolling torrent erupted from Huanmi's body, charging towards Xiao Yun. This strange force came so suddenly that it could even impact consciousness.

Xiao Yun didn't have time to be on guard and his consciousness almost collapsed.

Xiao Yun's face turned pale, but fortunately he quickly regained consciousness. If his consciousness had completely collapsed, even if his body was still alive, he would still be a living dead person.

Seeing that disillusionment was about to escape into the dark, Xiao Yunhan blushed and said, "Do you think you can hide for a while, for a lifetime? Although I cannot completely control this ancient secret realm for now, once I completely control it in the future, even if you recover, what will happen? You can only stay here for the rest of your life."

The disillusionment stopped, and it did not retreat into the darkness again. At this moment, the blade trembled slightly, as if angry, embarrassed, and the cracks around its body became even larger.

Xiao Yun is not afraid of it breaking. If this guy's temper were really that hard, it would have been completely shattered long ago. Why wait until now?

"You have only one choice, to become my martial spirit. I will help you recover, and one day I will take you back to the Nine Heavens' Divine Domain and make you the leader of divine weapons. You know the existence of the ancient secret realm, and you also know that I have completed the sword pulse and bone. With only the sword soul left, I can successfully build the foundation."

Xiao Yun said to Disillusionment, "With the perfect Dao technique and the existence of the Ancient Secret Realm, you should be clear about what level the future will reach. I know you can't speak, but you have a choice. Do you continue to choose to hide here, wait for me to take control of the Ancient Secret Realm, and then pick you up? Or do you follow me to conquer all directions and become stronger with me?"

Wuling is born with spirituality, but the spirituality of low-level Wuling is relatively low, only high-level Wuling can have high spirituality.

And Huanmi was originally the top martial spirit in the Nine Heavens Divine Domain, with a spiritual nature far superior to those high-level martial spirits.

Disillusionment did not hide in the dark anymore, but trembled violently, as if there were signs of collapse at any moment. Xiao Yun watched cautiously to prevent Disillusionment from counterattacking again.

At this moment, disillusionment stopped trembling and suddenly transformed into a lightning bolt piercing into Xiao Yun's body

Xiao Yun's body trembled, and a unique feeling arose, as if something still contained in his body was about to be reborn.

This is the process of Wu Ling's rebirth, but disillusionment is different. It has already taken shape. The reason why Xiao Yun has this feeling is because it is transforming into his own Wu Ling
