As the colossal Ironclad Titan was defeated, a sense of triumph filled the air.

The Spirit Beast\'s essence energy dissipated, leaving behind a shimmering gem, larger than any of the sword Dao gems Arthur\'s team had obtained before.

The gem emanated a radiant glow, and those in its proximity could feel their insights into the sword Dao deepening.

Arthur\'s eyes sparkled with interest as he picked up the gem. He sensed the immense power contained within it, but instead of keeping it for himself, he had a different idea.

Turning to the three disciples who had faced the Ironclad Titan—Thalia, Ezra, and Gareth—he spoke with conviction, "You three fought bravely and showed exceptional skills. This gem is a reward for your courage and determination."

Thalia, Ezra, and Gareth exchanged surprised glances, unable to believe their ears. Their leader, the enigmatic Invincible, was gifting them the precious sword Dao gem?

They were honored and humbled by the gesture.

"We couldn\'t have defeated the Ironclad Titan without the whole faction\'s support and coordination," Thalia said, trying to share the credit.

Arthur smiled warmly, "Indeed, but your skills and teamwork were remarkable. With this gem, you can further enhance your sword techniques and reach new heights in your cultivation. I have no doubt you\'ll make great use of it."

The three disciples accepted the gem with gratitude and a renewed determination to live up to Arthur\'s expectations.

The rest of the Invincible Sword Faction cheered for their fellow members, their confidence in Arthur increasing.

Kira, observing from a distance, couldn\'t help but wonder what was going on within the faction.

Arthur, or Invincible as everyone called him, seemed to inspire unparalleled loyalty and trust among his disciples.

There was an unshakable faith in him, even with the speculations surrounding his true identity as honestly no one believes Invincible is his real name.

But in the cultivation world people can choose whatever name they liked to be called.

\'I remember one time Grandpa introduced me to that friend of his. What was his name again? Stonehead...yeah right.\' Kira shook her at those thoughts.

Curiosity gnawed at her, but Kira refrained from asking Arthur directly. Instead, she casually mentioned, "You know, there have been rare instances in the sect\'s history where people stumbled upon a cave filled with sword Dao gems. It\'s said to have happened only twice."

Arthur nodded, his eyes glinting with determination. "I believe we\'ll not only find that cave but discover even more valuable treasures along the way."

Kira raised an eyebrow, intrigued by his confidence. "And why do you think that?"

"Call it a gut feeling," Arthur replied cryptically, a playful smile tugging at the corners of his lips.

Kira chuckled, amused by his response.

"A gut feeling, huh? Well, if anyone can uncover hidden treasures by a gut, it\'s probably you, Invincible," she said sarcastically.

Arthur laughed heartily, enjoying the banter with Kira. "You have more faith in me than I deserve, but I won\'t disappoint you."

The Invincible Sword Faction continued their journey, their spirits lifted by the recent victories and the prospect of discovering more sword Dao gems.

With the gem in the hands of the three disciples, their camaraderie and trust in each other grew even stronger.

As the chapter came to a close, the

While Arthur\'s faction celebrated their victory and the acquisition of the sword Dao gem, another group, led by Crixus and Julius, also achieved triumph in their own battle against a pack of formidable spirit beasts.

The beasts were fierce and relentless, but Crixus\'s team demonstrated their prowess with martial spirits and powerful battle techniques.

Lin Feng the vice leader of the Blood Sword Faction, was an agile and dexterous swordsman, his attacks were fierce and brutal.

"Behead!"

*Slash!*

Beside him, other disciples assisted even he wouldn\'t need any assistance to deal with the level of spirit beast. But he just wanted to have fun and rather than get bored from watch like Crixus and Julius.

The battle was intense and thrilling, with each member of the team taking turns in attacking while Crixus and Julius watched from the sides, assessing their strength and strategies.

As they battled one disciple got careless and almost got killed by one of the beasts.

But one of their faction member\'s well-aimed arrows saved his comrades from harm, piercing through the heart of the charging beast just in time.

As the last spirit beast dissipated, Julius nodded in approval. "It seems we\'re heading in the right direction," he remarked, eyeing the gems they had obtained.

Each gem was a very precious resource and he was satisfied with this cooperation with the Heavenly Sword Sect.

\'With the help of these resources, I will quickly catch up with the others and even surpass them before the tournament begins.\' Julius thought about his cousins who had left him in the dust for some time now and clenched his fist in excitement.

Lin Feng added, "The beasts are getting stronger as we venture deeper into the realm, and so are the gems we find. It\'s an excellent opportunity for us to hone our skills and gain valuable resources."

Julius chimed in, "Not just that, the density of essence energy is also increasing. It means we\'re getting closer to the core of the Heavenly Sword Secret Realm."

Crixus nodded in agreement. "Indeed. We\'ll find a suitable spot to cultivate for a few days, increase our cultivation levels, and explore further into the realm."

With renewed determination and excitement, their group cheered and continued onward, eager to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

Meanwhile, in another location, Zaith sprinted through a dark and ominous mountain range, shrouded in an eerie deathly aura.

Despite the haunting atmosphere, Zaith remained undeterred, his mind focused on his mission.

The corpses and desolation were reminders of the dangers lurking within the Heavenly Sword Secret Realm.

As he hurried forward, a voice echoed in his mind, sinister and eager. "We are almost there, hehe, I can\'t wait. Hurry up!"

Zaith\'s cold response showed his reluctance to rely on this voice, "You are not the only one."

The voice in his mind belonged to an enigmatic being that had been guiding him for as long as he could remember.

It was a legacy of his clan and one that as both deadly and powerful.

As Arthur\'s team continued their journey, they encountered a massive mountain blocking their path forward.

The group debated whether to go around it or attempt to scale it. After a moment of contemplation, Arthur decided they would climb the mountain, as he sensed something of interest waiting for them at its peak.

"Are you sure about this, Leader?" Zara asked, a hint of concern in her voice. "Scaling this mountain won\'t be an easy feat."

Arthur nodded confidently, "I have a feeling there\'s something valuable at the top. We must explore every opportunity that comes our way."

"Leader has always been right about such things," Luke chimed in. "Trust his instincts."

Sun Wukong and Balo nodded in agreement as they had been with Arthur more often than the others so their faith in Arthur at this point was unmatched.

With the group\'s agreement, they began their ascent.

As they climbed higher, they were astonished to find that the essence energy in the vicinity had tripled, far beyond what they had encountered before.

Even Kira was taken aback by Arthur\'s keen insight.

\'How does he always know these things?\' Kira wondered to herself, trying to decipher the enigma that was Arthur.

\'Hmph! This doesn\'t change anything; Grandpa can\'t really be serious about this right?\' she thought, holding onto her determination.

As they made their way up the mountain, they came across numerous rare and ancient spirit herbs.

Arthur, with his extensive knowledge of alchemy, identified each one and briefly explained their uses.

"Look, a Purple Phoenix Orchid!" Arthur pointed out, "This Tier 5 Spirit Herb is known for its ability to heal injuries and enhance one\'s vitality."

"And that\'s a Starlight Grass," he continued, "It\'s useful for refining pills that boost spiritual energy and increase the potential of one\'s martial spirit."

Kira couldn\'t help but be amazed by Arthur\'s vast knowledge of alchemy. She asked with surprise, "You know alchemy?"

Arthur smiled and replied, "I know more than you think."

Kira couldn\'t hide her curiosity, "Can you make pills?"

With a nod and a smile, Arthur confirmed her assumption, "Yes, I can."

This revelation left Kira astounded. She had never imagined that Arthur had such a hidden talent.

Despite her initial assumptions about his abilities, it was becoming clear that there was much more to him than met the eye.

As they continued their climb, Arthur directed the team on how to harvest each spirit herb carefully, ensuring they made the most of their discoveries.

His guidance demonstrated his expertise in alchemy, impressing even the most knowledgeable members of the group.

Kira couldn\'t help but feel a mixture of surprise and admiration. \'He is quite knowledgeable, even if he hides it well. But I still don\'t think his level will be too high as he can\'t be that powerful in both cultivation and alchemy. Everyone has a limited time after all.\'

Arthur, sensing her thoughts, remained silent. He didn\'t want to show off.

\'Not yet,\' he smiled in his heart.

"This little girl is probably still underestimating you." Cora spoke from with the painting, her voice heard in Arthur\'s mind due to their connection.

Arthur chuckled, "You can\'t blame her. You would do the same if you were in her shoes."

Cora went silent as what Arthur said was true. As she would never have imagined a low level cultivator in a tiny lower world will have such powerful soul that eclipse all she knew.

As the group gathered the rare spirit herbs, their excitement grew.

Each herb held immense value, and they knew these findings could greatly benefit the sect.

Yet, as much as they were eager to continue their journey, they also understood the importance of caution and patience.

Finally, as the day reached its end, they took a moment to rest, gazing at the lush surroundings.

Arthur\'s team knew they were just beginning to unravel the secrets of the Heavenly Sword Secret Realm, and the prospect of more discoveries fueled their determination.

As they rested, Arthur remained deep in thought, considering the path that lay ahead.

With a smile, he reassured his team, "We will find more treasures and opportunities as we explore further. This is just the beginning."

His words filled them with hope and determination, knowing that their journey had only just begun.

They were confident that with Arthur\'s insights and leadership, they would face whatever challenges lay ahead and emerge victorious.

With renewed resolve, they tested for the night as they camp at a corner on the mountain.

The day was profitable and it was just the first. Many wondered if others out there got as much profits as they did.
