Zhou Yu's face darkened, and he immediately activated his Primordial Spirit, unleashing a Primordial Spirit Materialization to meet this person's Residual Soul attack head-on.

Bang!

An inaudible collision resonated.

The Residual Soul issued a cry of surprise.

"I didn't expect that you actually know Primordial Spirit attack techniques."

"I have underestimated you, old fellow."

"However, with just your level of Primordial Spirit, do you think you can withstand me?"

With that, the Residual Soul attacked Zhou Yu's Sea of Consciousness once again.

This time, the Residial Soul flickered with a sinister black glow, forcing Zhou Yu's Primordial Spirit Materialization to retreat.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu snorted coldly.

In the next moment, a glimmer of golden light appeared within his Primordial Spirit.

At the same time, a terrifying killing intent surged directly towards the Residual Soul.

After sensing this killing intent, the Residual Soul let out a terrified scream.

"You... you actually have a Primordial Spirit Weapon???"

"Damn it!"

"Could it be that I am destined to face this calamity?"

As he spoke, the Residual Soul desperately tried to turn and escape.

But in the next moment, Zhou Yu's deployed Primordial Spirit Weapon directly penetrated his Residual Soul.

In an instant, the Residual Soul let out a wretched scream.

The scream was filled with deep regret.

Seeing that the Residual Soul was about to dissipate, Zhou Yu suddenly retracted his Primordial Spirit Weapon.

He did not kill the Residual Soul directly but instead looked at it coldly.

Now that the Residual Soul was severely damaged, Zhou Yu could easily deal with it even without using a Primordial Spirit Weapon.

The reason Zhou Yu did not kill him was that he wanted to know who this person really was and why a Residual Soul was hiding inside the Thick Earth Spirit Plate.

"Who are you?"

Zhou Yu asked coldly.

Seeing that Zhou Yu didn't kill him outright, the Residual Soul showed a complex expression.

He didn't answer Zhou Yu; instead, he scrutinized him.

When he discovered Zhou Yu's cultivation, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of astonishment but soon turned to helplessness.

"You brat, with just a second-grade King Realm, to have such astonishing means, I barely escaped the Spirit Disk sealing, only to run into a freak like you."

"Well, perhaps it's all fate."

"Could you tell this old man your name?"

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment before saying:

"Zhou Yu!"

The Residual Soul sighed and then said:

"My name is Lu Zhanfeng. Thirty years ago, I found this Thick Earth Spirit Plate, but just as I got it, I was ambushed by my most trusted senior brother and seriously injured."

At this point, Lu Zhanfeng's face was filled with extreme anger.

"He was my most respected senior brother, yet I never imagined he'd strike me for the Thick Earth Token."

"In a rage, I was determined to severely wound him, even at the cost of this body."

"In the end, I used a Secret Technique, sacrificing my body to injure him."

"And I, with the power of a Residual Soul, fled with the Thick Earth Token."

"But who would have thought, having narrowly escaped, that I'd be sealed by the barrier the Thick Earth Token naturally carries, until now, when you released me."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu sighed inwardly.

Since arriving in the city, he had seen such occurrences too often.

Too many people, for their own gain, do not hesitate to harm friends and family.

Lu Zhanfeng continued:

"Earlier, when I attacked you, to be honest, I wanted to seize your body and then go out to seek revenge."

"Now that I've failed, I've accepted it."

"I want to make a deal with you..."

At this, he suddenly laughed bitterly.

"In truth, it's not really a deal, more of an agreement."

Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow:

"What?"

"I am a Sword Cultivator. In the Sword Dao, I consider myself the best in five hundred years."

"Given enough time, I could undoubtedly break into the Ancestor Realm through the Sword Dao."

"But alas..."

"Never mind, it's all fate."

"I will pass on my life's insights of the Sword Dao and my self-created Wind Cutting Sword Technique to you."

"In exchange, please kill someone for me."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately showed a moved expression.

In fact, in terms of just a Cultivation Technique, honestly, unless it was Ancient Techniques or Immortal Law, Zhou Yu wasn't particularly interested.

But Lu Zhanfeng wanted to pass on his understanding of the Sword Dao.

That was extraordinary.

The so-called insights into the Sword Dao are a lifetime's understanding for a Sword Cultivator.

To receive such inheritance is to instantly gain all of that person's lifelong insights.

In this way, even a novice in the Sword Dao would instantly become a Grandmaster.

However, such a method, because it defies the natural order, causes the one who passes on the teachings to be destroyed in spirit and never enter reincarnation.

Thus, basically, no one would do this.

Unless there was extreme enmity.

And Lu Zhanfeng was such a person.

Zhou Yu took a deep breath and asked:

"Who do you want me to kill?"

Lu Zhanfeng's eyes bore deep resentment.

"The Great Elder of the Divine Sword Sect, Du Gusheng."

Divine Sword Sect?

Zhou Yu was slightly surprised.

He knew a bit about it.

It's a Hidden Sect, entirely comprised of Sword Cultivators, ranking among the top in strength within Hidden Sects, very powerful.

Zhou Yu nodded.

"I promise you."

Lu Zhanfeng did not question whether Zhou Yu would keep his promise, instead, he just let out a hearty laugh.

"Although it's our first meeting, I trust you, old fellow."

With that, his Residual Soul dispersed instantly, transforming into countless stars, drifting towards Zhou Yu's Sea of Consciousness.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu took a deep look and then slowly closed his eyes.

In the next moment, the innumerable stars poured into Zhou Yu's Sea of Consciousness...
