Wang Mu said, "It was also thanks to your help. By the way, was that a Shui Clan's Secret Technique you just used?"

That secret technique was too powerful; it had forcibly raised his cultivation by a whole level. Moreover, he experienced an inexplicably wonderful sensation. Looking at Little Jiao Huo, in particular, felt somewhat more pleasant... Other than that, there were no other feelings.

Little Jiao Huo dipped her head beneath the surface, flicking her tail to splash the water, and a voice sounded from beneath, "Yes, yes, it was just a type of Blessing Technique from our Merfolk Clan."

Wang Mu pondered for a few seconds. The Merfolk Clan's Blessing Technique is truly formidable, he thought. I underestimated it.

"A Sword Heart obtained by severing emotions—how could it not be powerful?" At that moment, Brother Jiu walked over, smiling as he spoke in a low voice, "It's really beyond my expectations. I have cultivated at the Sword Sect for over a hundred years and have never seen such a potent Love Nine Sword Technique..."

Just a few years ago, he was a fellow who hadn't even formally entered the Sect. Now, a few years later, he's transformed into someone capable of slaying such a Demon Dragon with his sword. Brother Jiu mused that in all his years of traveling far and wide, this was the first time he had witnessed such a cultivation prodigy. Fortunately, he's from our own Sect.

Speaking of which, he sent a telepathic message, "You lad, how many emotions have you severed?"

Wang Mu remained silent.

As expected of a true connoisseur of swords, Wang Mu thought. He figured it out instantly.

"Not many..." Wang Mu said.

"Not many, yet it possesses such power? I'm familiar with the Love Nine Sword Technique..." Brother Jiu said. "You're truly ruthless. In all my years of travel, even after eating your Marriage Fish, I only managed to experience one such emotional entanglement, and it tortured me to the point of wishing for death."

"You only joined the Sect a short while ago, yet you were able to directly sever several emotions..."

"No wonder you refused to eat that Marriage Fish. However, now that you've severed your emotions and dedicated yourself to the sword, it's not necessarily a bad thing."

"But the sword is not an unfeeling object, and it's difficult for a person to completely sever their emotions. I wonder how long this Seven Emotions Sword Heart of yours can last..."

Wang Mu glanced at Brother Jiu. His 'one emotional entanglement'... could it be with Qing Yuan from the Riding Phoenix Clan? he wondered. Painful enough to make one wish for death... Was it really that bad?

At that moment, Sea Granny floated over. She glanced at Wang Mu and merely sighed.

To be honest, this young man's strength is a bit too outrageous, Sea Granny thought. It wasn't just her shock at his ability to slay the Demon Dragon with a single sword strike. She didn't know much about the Sword Dao, but she understood one thing. For a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator to forcibly elevate their cultivation to the Golden Core Realm and emerge unscathed afterward... that was truly bizarre. Such instances of forcibly enhancing one's cultivation weren't unheard of in the Cultivation World, but they were typically accompanied by immense pain from the resulting side effects. Whether it was through consuming Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or using various secret techniques, the aftermath always involved extreme weakness; a regression in cultivation was considered a light consequence. An increase of this magnitude would normally mean one would be lucky to even survive. The reason was simple: the Spiritual Power generated by the Golden Core condensed in the Golden Core Realm had a tremendous impact on a Cultivator's physical body. For the body of a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator to endure the Spiritual Power of the Golden Core Realm, especially in that instantaneous surge, it would undoubtedly be subjected to an unimaginable burden. This kind of leap across a Great Realm was a devastatingly powerful enhancement; surviving it was considered fortunate. In contrast, this young man, after performing such a feat, landed as if nothing was amiss. This could only mean one thing: this young man's physical body was incredibly strong, and his potential was so vast that it had reached an unbelievable level. His physical body was in no way inferior to that of Golden Core Realm experts—perhaps even stronger. And then there was the Demon Dragon, annihilated by a single sword strike. The sheer decisiveness of the attack, the aura of utter annihilation contained within that sword light, made even her tremble slightly. It had only been about half a year... and his strength had increased by so much again... Moreover, judging the person by their sword... She didn't understand much about the Sword Heart, but from that single strike and Wang Mu's current state, she sensed that this human Cultivator seemed to be missing something compared to half a year ago.

Little Xi used the Merfolk Blessing on him... He's likely to face considerable hardship in the future... Sea Granny wasn't very optimistic. She glanced at her granddaughter in the water, knowing her innocent nature. Just now, Little Xi probably hadn't thought much about it, perhaps seeing him merely as a close friend, like an older brother. Yes, hopefully that was all...

"The Demon Dragon has been eliminated," Sea Granny said. "Its body is a treasure trove. We should divide it now, or its corpse will attract other Fierce Beasts from Two Realms Mountain."

Wang Mu nodded.

"I do not need anything else..." Brother Jiu said, "Just leave the Dragon's Penis for me. I'll use it for brewing wine."

Wang Mu was taken aback. Brother Jiu, you're really aiming high, going straight for the creature's most vital essence!

After considering it, Wang Mu asked, "Sea Granny, is this Demon Dragon a True Dragon?"

Sea Granny pondered for a few seconds and then said, "This is a Thunder Dragon, a deserter from the Western Extreme Sea Dragon Clan. Strictly speaking about its bloodline, it possessed five claws, indeed marking it as a member of the True Dragon Clan. However, even those from the True Dragon Clan can fall to the Demon Path and become murderously aggressive."

"It came here, presumably because Immortal Bi You has recently been lax in her management of the various seas and rivers. This left Ling Province somewhat unguarded, allowing it to sneak in and stir up trouble."

After hearing this, Wang Mu nodded and said, "In that case, I only need its Dragon's Tendon."

It would be perfect for crafting the Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Tribulation.

Sea Granny said nothing, quickly dismembering the Demon Dragon's corpse. Her technique was skillful, showing she was evidently quite knowledgeable about the Dragon Clan.

Brother Jiu assisted, quickly acquiring a Dragon's Penis several tens of meters long. When stowing it away, he specifically used a Spell to dispel the foul, lewd stench emanating from it, preventing it from contaminating the surroundings.
