Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

Upon hearing this, Luo Ze couldn't help but slightly furrow his brows.

He looked at the longsword in his hand and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

The origin of this sword was probably not that simple.

On the way back to the City Lord's Mansion in Weiqing City.

Luo Yao and Luo Ze were still discussing the same topic.

"Do you mean to say that this sword was crafted by an Artifact Refining Master from Ancient Times?" Luo Ze looked at Luo Yao and slowly asked.

"Yes," Luo Yao nodded, then he added indifferently, "And this sword is very likely an ancient artifact."

"Ancient artifact?" Luo Ze was startled upon hearing this.

After all, the term "ancient artifact" carried quite significant implications.

Indeed, to be called an ancient artifact, an item must possess tens of thousands of years of history.

So, when Luo Ze heard Luo Yao say that the sword was very likely an ancient artifact, he was somewhat surprised.

"Yes, it's very likely an ancient artifact," Luo Yao looked at him and stated flatly: "According to the ancient tome, the era of that Artifact Refining Master dates back at least tens of thousands of years."

"So, if this sword was really forged by that Artifact Refining Master, then it's very likely an ancient artifact passed down from Ancient Times."

Hearing this, Luo Ze couldn't help but nod slightly.

After all, this deduction seemed quite plausible.

"However, determining the origin of this sword isn't an easy task," Luo Yao looked at him and slowly continued: "Because to ascertain the origin of an ancient artifact would require a great deal of time and effort in research."

"And, we would need to find some related records."

"To truly bring this Spirit Sword back into the light, or rather to allow this Spirit Sword to once again exhibit its inherent brilliance, we would need a high-grade Artifact Refiner to reforge this longsword…"

Saying so, Luo Yao couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

However, in Weiqing City.

Where would one find such high-grade Artifact Refiner?

"Let's drop this topic."

"Looking at the time, we should almost head back to the City Lord's Mansion…"

Luo Yao glanced at the sky and the gradually emptying streets as he whispered these words.

At that moment, on the streets.

Apart from Luo Ze and Luo Yao, there were only the occasional sounds of the wind and birdsong.

The entire street was deathly quiet, devoid of any signs of life.

"Let's go."

Luo Yao looked at the empty streets and sighed helplessly.

Then, he and Luo Ze started walking slowly towards the City Lord's Mansion.

...

City Lord's Mansion.

At that time, in the great hall, aside from Luo Ze and Luo Yao, there was another person.

Cloaked in a black robe and wearing a hat, his true face was obscured.

However, as Young Master Luo of the Luo Family from Qingshi City, Luo Yao was very clear.

This person was one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, Zhen.

His cultivation had already reached the terrifying realm of the Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage.

Even if faced with cultivators at the Mortal Transcendence Intermediate Stage, Zhen, as one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, was fearless.

"Young Master, you've worked hard," Zhen looked at Luo Yao and said blandly.

"It's all part of the duty."

Luo Yao smiled slightly and then shook his head.

Despite Zhen's tone being plain, Luo Yao could sense the fierce edge in it.

After all, this was one of the Three Great Commanders of the Shadow Guard.

His inherent strength and methods were naturally extraordinary.

"Young Master, did you and Luo Ze find anything noteworthy on your trip?" Zhen glanced at Luo Ze sitting beside them and slowly asked.

"We did find something," Luo Yao smiled in response, then he added lightly: "On this trip, we acquired an ancient sword that is subdued yet somewhat strange."

As he spoke, he took out the longsword.

Under Zhen's intense gaze, the longsword slowly came into view for everyone.

As the longsword appeared, the atmosphere in the hall immediately quieted down.

Then, Zhen slowly approached the longsword, carefully examining it.

After about a stick of incense in duration, Zhen slowly raised his head.

"This sword is indeed a bit strange, somewhat unusual…"

"Moreover, the patterns and the incredibly mysterious markings on this ancient sword seem to add an even greater sense of mystery to it…"

Zhen murmured quietly.

"Oh?" Luo Yao couldn't help but be taken aback.

"What? Does Young Master feel something is amiss?" Zhen looked at Luo Yao and asked blandly.

"It's not really a big issue," Luo Yao shook his head, then added lightly: "It's just that the patterns and markings on this ancient sword feel quite unusual, as if they contain some very ancient secrets…"

"Ancient secrets?" Zhen was slightly startled as well.

After all, if this ancient sword did indeed contain some very ancient secrets, then this was not a simple matter.

Indeed, such ancient secrets were not easily uncovered.

"Yes." Luo Yao nodded, then slowly continued: "Moreover, I feel the origin of this ancient sword is probably not simple."
