Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 645: The Reaction of Red Copper

```

Inside a tavern in a small city on the outskirts of the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty.

At the moment, the place was buzzing with chatter.

"Smack!"

"They say that Xu Ping’an, with sword in hand, summoned the Divine Thunder of heaven and earth, channeling it into his Divine Sword. With one slash, the heavens shattered and the earth split, effortlessly toppling the decayed. Under his sword, those Tenth Rank experts of the Immortal Realm had no strength to counter and were all killed, with not even their bones left behind.

Dust and dirt rolled and covered the sky, and when that dust cleared, what remained was a colossal ravine stretching ten thousand zhang, unfathomably deep, seemingly bottomless, rumored to be a kilometer deep..."

The storyteller said with an animated face.

The audience below was dumbfounded as they listened.

A sword slash carving out a ten thousand zhang long ravine, a kilometer deep?

What kind of terrifying strength was this?

Among the crowd, a young man eating his meal shook his head helplessly.

Drawing the Divine Thunder of heaven and earth?

Carving out a ten thousand zhang long ravine, a kilometer deep?

Was his sword strike really that exaggerated?

Why did everything become so exaggerated once it reached the storyteller’s lips?

However, even he himself found that one slash unbelievable.

He had not expected that the Indestructible Force from the Thunder Brilliance Ring combined with the Thunder Devouring Sword would wield such power.

Of course, if it hadn’t been for his strong physical body, he probably would have exploded and died before even making that slash.

Xu Ping’an finished his meal and left the inn.

It had been twelve days since his battle with the thirty-two Tenth Rank experts.

He was now within the territory of the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty.

Over these twelve days, using the resources of those experts, not only had his injuries fully healed,

but his cultivation had comprehensively broken through to the Ninth Rank Fourth Layer Realm.

Now, his combat power was such that he could be said to be invincible under the Eleventh Rank.

Beyond that, this time wasn’t just a breakthrough for him.

The Blade Mantis, the Savage Ape King, and the Xuanqing Immortal Vine had also all broken through to the Semi-Immortal level.

The previous giant crocodile body and the cadaver of the Golden Winged Cloud Peng had been devoured by the three of them.

Plus, after Xu Ping’an fed them some Immortal Pills, the three of them didn’t let down his expectations and broke through to the initial stage of the Semi-Immortal Realm.

Just wait until the Spirit Realm, and then they can ascend to become immortals.

"Kid, when will you refine a physical body for me? Even the spirit beasts by your side have reached the Semi-Immortal Realm, and I still haven’t recovered my physical body?" Lei Shi’s voice echoed in Xu Ping’an’s mind.

"What’s the rush? I’ve already gathered all the secondary ingredients for the Heaven Repairing Pill. For the three main ingredients, I’ve also obtained a Tenth Rank Demon Beast’s inner core and Phoenix Blood. All that’s left is the Tenth Rank superior grade Nether Spring Wood," Xu Ping’an said.

Xu Ping’an had two Tenth Rank Demon Beast inner cores.

One was from the giant crocodile, and the other from the Golden Winged Cloud Peng.

Before leaving, he gave one of the giant crocodile’s inner cores to Situ Lie.

The remaining Golden Winged Cloud Peng inner core was completely fine for refining Lei Shi’s pill.

As for the Phoenix Blood, Xu Ping’an also got two drops from Qing Huo.

Initially, Qing Huo was unwilling, but in the end, in consideration of Xu Ping’an giving her the Chaotic Flame, she gave him two drops.

Xu Ping’an gave one drop to Situ Lie, and kept one for himself.

With that, all the ingredients for the Heaven Repairing Pill were accounted for, except for the Nether Spring Wood.

"Nether Spring Wood isn’t easy to find. Whether I can recover my physical body is all up to you," Lei Shi said with a hint of longing.

"Don’t worry, I will definitely help you refine the Heaven Repairing Pill. If it’s not in the Mortal Realm, then we’ll go to the Spirit Realm," Xu Ping’an replied with a smile.

"With your word, kid, I’m reassured," Lei Shi said with a laugh.

Xu Ping’an smiled faintly.

Nether Spring Wood indeed wasn’t easy to find.

```

He had inquired at many trading companies along the way, but none had such an item.

Even many people had never heard of such a thing.

Xu Ping’an had no choice but to shelve the matter.

During this time, Cang Xue did not respond, and Xu Ping’an tried to communicate with her several times.

However, it seemed Cang Xue had fallen into a deep sleep and did not respond.

Xu Ping’an had no choice but to give up.

Along the way, besides comprehending the Second Layer of Sword Intent from the Fenghe Sword Technique, Xu Ping’an also studied the spatial formation he obtained from Situ Lie.

This spatial compression formation was quite complicated.

Xu Ping’an’s ability to traverse the void with Thunder Escape came precisely from some revelations within this formation.

However, there were limitations to the Thunder Escape, as he could only traverse distances shorter than a hundred meters each time.

Moreover, he could barely execute it by relying on his Chaotic Thunder Power.

With his current strength, he could at most perform it consecutively ten times.

It had only been used to intimidate those Tenth Rank Cultivators before.

But Xu Ping’an knew that if he had a deeper understanding of space, he could certainly cross far greater distances in the void.

"Compressing space, I can only compress a crack now, allowing myself to transform into thunder and traverse a hundred meters. To reach a kilometer, the difficulty of compressing space is too great," Xu Ping’an shook his head and said.

To master the ability to traverse the void, his current level of cultivation was still far from sufficient.

But with Thunder Escape, his combat power had become extraordinarily terrifying.

"Space and time are both quite difficult," Xu Ping’an murmured to himself.

Now, his proficiency in both Spatial Cutting and Time Acceleration had reached the Perfection Realm.

He was just one step away from the Dao Principle Realm.

As long as he overcomes one more hurdle, both skills could breakthrough to the Dao Principle Realm.

However, Xu Ping’an did not intend to breakthrough just yet.

Wu Han had mentioned before that space and time could be one.

But to this day, he had yet to comprehend how space and time could be integrated.

Therefore, without understanding this point, he would not rashly break through to the Dao Principle Realm.

Moreover, his current level of cultivation had not yet reached Tenth Rank, so there was no rush to break through at this moment.

Xu Ping’an continued to walk towards the city gates.

He intended to continue his journey to the capital of the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty.

But just as he stepped out of the city gates, the piece of red copper inside him suddenly started to tremble.

Xu Ping’an was startled.

The red copper actually reacted?

This red copper was one of the three treasures he obtained in the Divine Flame Hall of the Fire Divine Palace.

Of the three treasures, this piece of red copper was the most mysterious.

Xu Ping’an had never understood what was so special about this red copper shard or which Divine Artifact it had broken off from.

However, since he had brought it out of the Divine Flame Hall, the red copper seemed to have lost all its luster at once.

Its oppressive aura disappeared, and its Divine Might fluctuation was no longer present.

It was as if it had become an ordinary copper shard.

He had thought that the red copper would remain like this forever, but now it was trembling, seemingly resonating with something.

"Interesting, it seems to be responding to some kind of call, the direction of which appears to be to the east," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

He decided to go and see.

See what was causing this red copper to resonate.

So, Xu Ping’an transformed into a streak of light and headed in the direction of the red copper’s response.

And as he continued to advance, the red copper’s response seemed to become even stronger.
