Legend of Swordsman

More importantly, it was about the method.

Jian Wushuang rubbed his chin as he watched them, one by one, tense up as if they were struggling with some internal conflict.

Especially Guardian Yunhai—his talent was mediocre.

At this moment, he was debating whether to play dumb or to directly agree with Jian Wushuang.

If he played dumb, he couldn’t be sure whether Jian Wushuang would make a move against them.

If he agreed with Jian Wushuang, he was certain that Jian Wushuang would help him undergo the sacrifice, allowing him to soar and become a Heaven-defying Dao Master. In the entire Ancient Domain World, he would even be able to contend with an Emperor.

But he was still hesitating.

Because the stakes were too high.

Who would willingly cut off their own future?

At this moment, Jian Wushuang spoke, “The reason I called you all here today is to find an ordinary True Immortal. Someone who has no hope of progressing further but wants to quickly improve their strength. I can help him undergo the sacrifice successfully, and he will follow me from now on and assist me with tasks!”

Upon hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

“It seems that the Lord doesn’t want to force us. This is good. In that case, we should recommend someone.”

They all thought about it in their hearts.

At the same time, they discussed it among themselves.

“Lord, I happen to have someone in mind!” Guardian Yunhai was once again the first to speak.

Jian Wushuang said indifferently, “Go on.”

“Xue He!” Guardian Yunhai responded, “Lord, you know him as well. This guy has no hope of further advancement. Even if he were to reach the Dao Master level, it would be mediocre at best. At most, he would become a top-tier Dao Master, which wouldn’t be much help to you. It’s better to let him undergo the sacrifice and become a silver puppet. That would also be a reward for him!”

The previously silent Chu Xiong also chimed in, “Xue He is indeed a good choice. His disposition is solid, and his strength is not weak. He is more than capable of fulfilling the role!”

“Very well, let him come here!” Jian Wushuang waved his hand.

The group was overjoyed and quickly sent a message to Xue He.

This guy had no idea that while he was quietly cultivating, his future had already been decided by the others.

When he arrived, he was completely bewildered.

It was Chu Xiong who explained everything to him.

Upon hearing about this opportunity, Xue He immediately agreed.

He knew exactly how much potential he had.

The chance to effortlessly become a Heaven-defying Dao Master was nothing short of a dream come true.

Without hesitation, he knelt before Jian Wushuang and swore his lifelong allegiance to him.

Jian Wushuang was not surprised. He pressed his hand down and said, “I’ll help you become a Dao Master first. Now, tell me about the bottleneck in your Origin Source that is preventing you from breaking through.”

“…..” Xue He poured out all of his bottlenecks in one breath.

In fact, he was very close to becoming a Dao Master, but he was stuck at a point he couldn’t break through.

Cultivating here in this place of insight might speed up the process, but it would still take him a hundred thousand years to completely break through.

After breaking through, his next goal would be to become an Emperor, but for him, that seemed so distant it was incalculable.

Even reaching the peak of the Dao Master level could take him a million years.

That was longer than the time it took for the Ancient Domain World to come into existence.

There was nothing he could do about it. His talent was limited, and his Origin Source had long been fixed.

No one could change that.

The only way was through post-natal modification.

Jian Wushuang, upon hearing the words, had a bright light shoot out from the center of his brow.

That was his Thought power, the stream of light entering Xue He’s body.

It transformed into a phantom image of himself, beginning to guide Xue He.

Relying on his guidance, in just a single day, Xue He would evolve into a Dao Master.

At the same time, Jian Wushuang accelerated the flow of time.

This place was deep within the Origin Source of the universe, and using the Nine Prison Pagoda, he could accelerate the time here.

To the outside world, it was but a moment, but in that instant, Xue He’s Origin Source became complete, and he ascended to become a Dao Master.

“Thank you for your guidance, Lord!” Xue He, overwhelmed with excitement, knelt and expressed his gratitude.

Guardian Yunhai and the others were equally astonished as they discovered that Xue He had already become a Dao Master. In their hearts, they were all shaken by Jian Wushuang’s ability to help Xue He reach Dao Master level so quickly.

It was terrifying.

If Jian Wushuang desired, he could recruit countless True Immortals and help them ascend to become Dao Masters. That would make him the most powerful force in the entire Ancient Domain, far surpassing any sacred land or ancient court.

It would drive people mad.

At the same time, they began to wonder just how powerful Jian Wushuang truly was.

He must be at the level of an Emperor, and even more powerful than the Holy Lord. It was only due to some reason that his current realm had regressed. By helping Jian Wushuang achieve his great revival, they would surely become his trusted followers.

At that moment, they all made a decision — to serve Jian Wushuang until he returned to his former glory.

Jian Wushuang waved his hand nonchalantly and said, “No need to thank me. First, hand over all the treasures you possess. These things will interfere with the self-sacrifice ceremony!”

“Yes!” Without hesitation, Xue He handed over all the items he had to Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang wasn’t particularly interested in Xue He’s meager treasures, but it was mainly to show the others.

“Now, I will help you sacrifice yourself and become a silver puppet.”

With that, Jian Wushuang deliberately refined the treasures Xue He handed over, then took out a drop of silver liquid and placed it on Xue He’s brow.

In an instant, Xue He’s entire body turned silver.

“Ahhhh!!!”

A powerful energy surged through Xue He’s Origin Source. In the blink of an eye, his Origin Source was filled with silver blood. From inside out, his entire being turned silver.

Even his eyes became silver.

At the same time, his Immortal power completely disappeared, replaced by divine power.

Divine power surged tenfold.

In one breath, it grew a hundredfold.

In two breaths, it grew a thousandfold.

In three breaths, it grew ten thousandfold.

It simultaneously reached its peak.

“Phew!” Xue He exhaled, feeling the incredible strength within his body. Although this power had no roots, he could now absorb treasures to restore his divine power.

In reality, there wasn’t much of a difference.

A cultivator was like a flowing wellspring of water, but after the self-sacrifice, they turned into a dead well.

The logic was simple.

But executing it was very difficult.

Xue He clenched his fist and felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment. After expressing his gratitude to Jian Wushuang, he glanced at Guardian Yunhai and the others.

When he unleashed his ten-thousandfold divine power, it gave everyone a fright.

“This opportunity I received is all thanks to your recommendations. I, Xue He, am deeply grateful!”

Though Xue He appeared humble, the confidence in his words far surpassed anything from before.

Guardian Yunhai and the others no longer dared to underestimate Xue He.

“Brother Xue, it’s truly a case of long-awaited success. Of course, we should thank our Lord for bestowing this upon you!” Guardian Qifeng responded politely.

Chuxiong, on the other hand, was feeling a bit conflicted. He had once looked down on Xue He, but now Xue He had surpassed him in an instant.

Although he had some hope of surpassing Xue He in the future, it would take an extremely long time!

“Haha, of course I know this is all thanks to our Lord. That’s why I will strive to serve him before any of you!” Xue He’s tone grew increasingly assertive after his polite words.

Seeing their hidden competition, Jian Wushuang smiled inwardly. This was the result he had wanted all along.
