Chapter 204 Title Aoki
"How could it be an evil spirit! Why would it come at this time?"
"Shen Xu! You still know how to come!"
These two diametrically opposed ideas encapsulate the thoughts of the vast majority of people on the battlefield at this moment.
"Shen..." Qingyun looked at Shen Xu walking slowly towards her and immediately spoke with surprise. Then, as if realizing something, she immediately swallowed the words that were about to come out. But from the flowers that were completely blooming on the green wood mask, Shen Xu could tell that she was very happy.
Seeing Qingyun's great joy, Shen Xu smiled and said, "Qingyun, you have now surpassed me."
As Shen Xu's voice slowly faded away, in that instant, it was as if a gentle yet invisible breeze had quietly swept by.
The thick, oppressive smoke and dust that had filled the giant pit were dispersed rapidly in all directions, as if driven away by an invisible force.
As the smoke and dust quickly dissipated, the clear view of the bottom of the giant pit was finally revealed to everyone without reservation. Every detail became exceptionally clear and could be seen in its entirety.
Meanwhile, in the increasingly dark and gloomy sky, a seven-colored stone tablet shining with endless brilliance appeared little by little in people's sight, like a star suddenly rising from the night sky.
It was as if it had been hidden in the darkness of the sky all along, silently waiting for this moment to arrive.
The seven-colored light intertwined like a series of colorful rainbows, illuminating the entire space and making it shine brightly.
The sky, which had been somewhat dim due to the deepening twilight, was now revitalized by the appearance of this magical stone tablet, shining brightly and beautifully.
However, despite the dazzling light emanating from the stone tablet, it did not feel glaring. Instead, it exuded a mysterious and warm aura, causing those who were illuminated by the light to feel an indescribable sense of warmth and intimacy.
At this moment, the onlookers on the battlefield seemed to forget everything around them, and they all involuntarily raised their heads, their eyes shining brightly as they focused on the seven-colored stone tablet that stretched between heaven and earth.
The stone tablet towered into the clouds, its body radiating a dazzling array of seven colors. As everyone looked closely at the tablet, they were astonished to find nine shimmering, seven-colored titles engraved on it: Qingyue, Jinhong, Tianhe... Each title shimmered with a mesmerizing light, as brilliant and dazzling as stars.
Just as everyone was immersed in the awe brought to them by the stone tablet, a brand new seven-colored title was slowly emerging below the last seven-colored title.
"Aoki"!
The moment this title was created, it began to radiate endless cyan light, as if it contained boundless vitality.
As time went by, the brilliance of the title "Aoki" grew ever brighter, gradually overshadowing the radiance of the other nine titles.
In the end, it seemed that only the title "Aoki" was still shining brightly on the entire stone tablet, while the light of the other titles had been completely obscured by it.
Then, an even more astonishing scene unfolded. The two ancient characters, radiating endless blue light, seemed to come alive, slowly detaching themselves from the surface of the stone tablet.
They hovered in the air, trembling slightly, their azure light illuminating the entire secret realm.
Bathed in this azure light, everyone felt their bodies and minds purified, and immediately felt refreshed. Those swordsmen with wounds were surprised to find that their wounds were healing at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye.
The various ailments that had accumulated in their bodies due to years of cultivation were slowly dissipating and healing under the soothing blue light.
As time passed, the cyan light gradually dimmed its dazzling brilliance and became softer.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, the two azure characters, like dazzling meteors, streaked across the sky and shot straight toward the ground. Where they passed, they left behind two brilliant, multicolored streaks of light, seemingly distorting space itself, creating a dreamlike, surreal scene.
In the blink of an eye, two beams of azure light arrived in front of Qingyun, easily disappearing into her forehead and vanishing without a trace. The entire Kunyuan Secret Realm was once again shrouded in darkness.

Upon seeing this, the Bright Moon Sword Master burst into laughter and said, "Let's go to Heavenly Sword Square to welcome our new councilor!"
"Yes, sir!" the crowd replied in unison, bowing in unison.
While everyone was still reeling from the shock of the new titled swordsman's birth, Shen Xu calmly put his mask and robe into his storage ring, and then activated the teleportation array on the jade tablet in his hand without hesitation. White light immediately enveloped his entire body.
The next moment he saw the Heavenly Sword Tower not far away, and the many people of Heavenly Sword City surrounding the Heavenly Sword Tower waiting to see the final result.
When the people around him saw him, their eyes gleamed with a predatory hunger.
"It's not over yet, I was eliminated," Shen Xu hurriedly explained.
Upon hearing Shen Xu's words, everyone immediately lost interest in him. He also breathed a long sigh of relief and then used the mist to conceal his figure and leave the area of the Heavenly Sword Tower.
Within the Kunyuan Secret Realm, Qingyun stood there, somewhat stunned. She couldn't believe what had just happened. Wasn't she supposed to help Zuo Chen obtain a title? Why was it that she was the one who received the title in the end?
She couldn't help but turn to look at Zuo Chen, hoping to get an explanation from him, but she couldn't see Zuo Chen's expression behind the star mask.
Zuo Chen clearly knew that Qing Yun had many questions for him, so he took the initiative to step forward and said, "Actually, when I asked you to join Wentian, it was so that you could obtain this title."
"You all know, and I'm the only one who doesn't know, right?" Qingyun's eyes, hidden behind her mask, looked at Wentian and the others.
Everyone who asked about the situation couldn't help but avoid Qingyun's gaze.
“It’s not that we don’t want to tell you, but once we do, Qingyun, you definitely won’t be willing to cooperate in obtaining this title!” Yuan Wuwei explained.
Seeing that Shen Xu was no longer around, Qingyun said slowly to Li Xiaoyi, "Sister Xiaoyi, Shen Xu really is a coward!"
“Qingyun…” Li Xiaoyi was speechless.
Xiao Ruohuang also spoke up to explain, "Qingyun, don't be angry. Although we lied to you, we absolutely had no ill intentions towards you!"
"Angry! Why should I be angry! An ordinary swordsman who couldn't even pass the sword selection has now ascended to the heavens and obtained the title of Creation. Why should I be angry!" Qingyun said coldly.
"Sigh!" Cen Chong sighed deeply.
"Qingyun, when you go out later, the higher-ups of the Four Directions Sword Alliance will come to pick you up. Just tell them the truth!" Zuo Chen instructed.
Just after Zuo Chen finished speaking, a white light emanated from everyone's bodies, and the battlefield fell into a deathly silence from the clamor. Then, the entire secret realm began to slowly drift away from Xingchuan Domain.
After the Kunyuan Secret Realm began to drift away, the ranking stone tablet on Qingyun Mountain seemed to be summoned by something, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the sky.
