SWISH!
The red silk was yanked away!
In that instant, a dazzling beam of purple-gold light shot toward the heavens, as if intending to pierce the very sky above the open-air plaza!
An incomparably sharp aura, one that felt capable of severing all things, erupted outward. Some of the Qi Cultivation Cultivators sitting closer even felt a faint stinging on their skin and subconsciously took several steps back.
There, floating silently above the Jade Plate, was a sword-shaped embryo about three feet long, its entire body a streamlined, purple-gold hue!
It wasn't a complete Flying Sword. It had no guard, no hilt, and its edge wasn't even sharpened. It looked more like a piece of Divine Iron that had been crudely shaped into a sword by the forces of Creation itself.
But its material was crystal clear. Inside, countless tiny purple vortexes of wind and flecks of golden starlight seemed to ceaselessly swirl and collide, emitting a deep, pleasant hum.
