After Song Zheng left, Lu Yuan began to look around.

The place Song Zheng brought him to was a floating island.

Around this island, there were many similar islands, all floating above the clouds.

Through the clouds, Lu Yuan discovered that there were vast lands beneath the clouds.

The entire Fourth Heaven was actually an incomparably huge world.

In addition to the cultivators of the Spirit Sword Sect, there were also countless mortals living here.

In Lu Yuan’s perception, the spiritual energy of the Fourth Heaven was very dense.

Originally, the spiritual energy of the Upper Realm was several times that of the Lower Realm.

However, the spiritual energy here was several times that of the general area of the Upper Realm.

Living here, even people with ordinary talent had a great chance of reaching the Nascent Soul Stage with time.

Lu Yuan could not help but sigh.

The difference in resources between the Upper and Lower Realms was too obvious.

If he had cultivated here, he might have been able to reach the Nascent Soul Stage within a hundred years.

However, there was no point in thinking about this now.

Moreover, if he was really born in the Upper Realm from the beginning, Lu Yuan could not guarantee that he would have such a safe cultivation environment.

Now that he had already displayed a portion of his strength, he could be considered to have changed his previous low-key style.

It could be considered that he had exposed something in advance.

Originally, before he came to Spirit Sword Sect, Lu Yuan wanted to be a low-key person that no one knew about in Spirit Sword Mountain, just like how he did in Qingyun Sect.

However, when he knew that only direct disciples who entered the Big Dipper Sword Domain could learn the Big Dipper Sword Intent, he knew that his plan to be low-key had failed.

Exposing a portion of his strength was something he had planned in advance.

This was because it was beneficial for him to better learn the sword intent of the Spirit Sword Sect.

As for exposing his full strength, Lu Yuan had never thought about it.

This kind of thing was definitely harmful to him.

Other people cultivated by fighting, but he cultivated by hiding.

What he wanted was never cultivation resources, but a comfortable cultivation environment.

If he had a choice, Lu Yuan wanted to enter a Sword Domain that stood aloof from the world.

But now, it seemed that this request of his might be very difficult to satisfy.

After all, which Sword Domain he would enter next was not something he could control.

He could only hope that the Sword Domain he was about to enter would be a little more normal.

Thirty-six Big Dipper Sword Domain, Speed Star Sword Domain.

“Sword Master, this is a photographic stone sent by the Sword Master of the Fierce Star Sword Domain. He said that there is important information about the participants of the Heavenly Sword Trial and asked me to personally deliver it to you.”

Gu Qiuyue, the Sword Master of the Speed Star, who had been sitting with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes.

“Hand it over.”

“Yes.”

The maid dragged the photographic stone to Gu Qiuyue’s bed.

Not long after, a fair hand reached out from the curtain and took away the photographic stone.

A moment later, Gu Qiuyue’s cold and noble voice came from the curtain.

“Let’s go to the Fierce Star Sword Domain.”

“Yes.”

As the curtains of the bed were opened, a graceful and elegant female cultivator slowly walked out.

Unlike ordinary female cultivators, Gu Qiuyue looked like an empress in the mortal world.

There was an indescribable aura in her every move.

As Gu Qiuyue walked out, many maids quickly appeared on both sides of the palace.

Without exception, all of these maids were at least Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

They were guarding Gu Qiuyue. Some were dragging Gu Qiuyue’s skirt with both hands, while others were carrying some items.

She looked like a mortal world queen leaving the palace.

When Gu Qiuyue arrived outside the palace, an ancient Luan chariot was already waiting for her.

The reason why it was called a Luan chariot was that the one pulling the carriage was an Apotheosis Stage Ancient Luan (a phoenix-like bird).

To be able to be pulled by such a beast of antiquity, one could see how noble Gu Qiuyue’s status was.

As Gu Qiuyue entered the carriage, the ancient Luan in front of the carriage immediately spread its wings and flew in the direction of the Fierce Star Sword Domain.

At the same time, the other Sword Domain’s Sword Masters also received news of Song Zheng, the Sword Master of the Fierce Star Sword Domain.

However, not everyone was interested in the Heavenly Sword Trial.

Some Sword Masters were aloof from worldly affairs and didn’t want to interfere in this matter. They were also too lazy to nurture disciples and just muddled along.

Some other Sword Masters believed that they couldn’t offer what Song Zheng wanted in exchange for the right to choose.

And some of them already had outstanding disciples. They felt that although Lu Yuan’s Innate Sword Body was good, their Sword Domain did not lack such an Innate Sword Body and chose not to go.

In the end, only five Sword Masters of the Sword Domain headed to the Fierce Star Sword Domain, including the Sword Master of the Speed Star Domain, Gu Qiuyue.

Fierce Star Sword Domain, Sword Master Peak.

At this moment, Song Zheng was sitting on the main seat in the main hall. He could not hide the joy on his face.

He had already received news that the Sword Masters of the Speed Star Sword Domain, Killer Star Sword Domain, Guilt Star Sword Domain, Secure Star Sword Domain and Dark Star Sword Domain were all interested in this Heavenly Sword Trial, or rather, Lu Yuan’s Innate Sword Body that could hurt Xie Zhi. They were all on their way here.

These five Sword Domains were all ranked in the top twenty of the thirty-six Big Dipper Sword Domains.

In addition, these five Sword Masters were all ambitious and wanted to fight for the position of the next Sect Leader of the Spirit Sword Sect.

If one wanted to become the Sect Leader of the Spirit Sword Sect, in addition to reaching a certain level of cultivation, it also required the strength of the Sword Domain they were in to reach a certain level.

After all, the Sect Leader’s most concern was not about the cultivator’s own cultivation, but whether he could lead the Sect to a higher level.

And the strength of the disciples in his Sword Domain also largely determined the strength of the Sword Domain.

Therefore, for these five people, an Innate Sword Body that was destined to reach the Apotheosis Stage was definitely an existence that was worth fighting for.

In this way, it also meant that these five people would definitely pay a hefty price in this transaction.

From there, he could take out something that satisfied him in exchange for the right to choose this time.

Thinking of this, the smile on Song Zheng’s face became even brighter.

Just as Song Zheng was enjoying his imminent bountiful harvest, the clear cry of a bird came from the distant sky.

Song Zheng spread out his spiritual sense and quickly saw a huge ancient Luan flying in his direction.

Wherever the Luan passed, green flames would be left behind. It was like a stream of light, very beautiful.

Seeing this iconic ancient luan chariot, Song Zheng immediately knew who had arrived.

With such a grand display, it was obvious that she was the empress from the Speed Star.

Almost at the same time, movements came from the other two directions of the Fierce Star Sword Domain.

First, an incomparably huge battleship cut through the sea of clouds and slowly flew toward his main palace.

On the other side, a massive island was flying over. Upon closer inspection, the island was covered in dark clouds, making it look like a purgatory.

On the deck of the battleship, a flag with the blood-red word ‘kill’ written on it was hung.

The word ‘Prison’ was written on the peak of the huge island.

Without a doubt, the battleship came from the Killer Star Sword Domain and the huge island came from the Secure Star Sword Domain.

Compared to these two sides, although the Speed Star Sword Domain’s ostentation was not small, it was still a little weaker.

This was also in line with their ranking among the Sword Masters.

Among the three of them, the Sword Master of the Killer Star Sword Domain was ranked fifth among all the Sword Masters.

The Secure Star Sword Master was ranked eighth, while the Speed Star Sword Master was ranked eleventh.

However, the Sword Master Rankings happened once every thousand years, and there were less than four hundred years before the next Sword Master Rankings.

It was unknown whether the three of them would have a change in their positions after the next Sword Master Rankings.

However, Song Zheng didn’t really care about these things.

In any case, the top twenty had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to use this opportunity to move himself up from the last place.

Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing if there wasn’t even an Ethereal Stage Cultivator in the vast Sword Domain.

At the same time, the three Sword Masters in the sky sensed each other’s arrival.

They all knew what Song Zheng was trying to do.

However, the proud trio would not show weakness at this moment.

Therefore, almost at the same time, the three sides made the same decision.

That was to head straight for the main hall of the Fierce Star Sword Region without any hesitation..
