Scarlet Heaven Sword was certain that this spear was the same one that the female incarnation of the Ancient Nether Chaos Will had been holding previously.

Why is this thing with Song Shuhang?

Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, "When did you go and provoke the Ancient Nether Chaos Will?"

Can you seriously not go one second without provoking a big shot?

"This time, it really wasn't me who went to provoke her... Just now, when my primordial soul went to meet Senior White and Senior White Two, the Ancient Nether Chaost Will came over to me, wishing to merge with me. However, I didn't agree, so she threw the karmic spear at me. At that time, Senior White Two was by my side, and dealt with the karmic spear in my stead. That's how I ended up with this half of the karmic spear." Song Shuhang held the karmic spear in his hand, and lightly waved it around.

"..." Scarlet Heaven Sword. 

It honestly didn't know what to say anymore.

"But this thing feels quite useless, so I'm planning on using it to make a spear for Scarlet Pupil." Song Shuhang waved the spear around. "If it looked like a saber, then maybe I could've used it."

According to the information he got from the secret appraisal technique, as long as it was used correctly, this fragment of the spear could display the power of karma once. That, on its own, was actually rather heaven-defying.

As soon as Song Shuhang said this, the half-spear in his hand began to change.

The half-spear melted, turned into molten iron, and began evolving.

It became shorter, and then expanded. In the blink of an eye, it had transformed into a ghost-handle saber.

"..." Song Shuhang. 

Scarlet Heaven Sword laughed. "Hahaha."

It became a saber just as he desired.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword remarked, "This saber is rather overbearing. It fits your style."

Song Shuhang said, "Senior, please don't mock me. I'll give you at least three instances of the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ after a while."

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword heard this, and immediately changed its tone. "Let's stop wasting time, and start learning the 'karmic saber' immediately! Wasting time is wasting life!"

After saying that, it started to introduce Song Shuhang to the 'karmic saber'.

"Unlike the karmic spear, I've changed the karmic saber's method of attack to a slash. This 'slash' slashes apart karma with an unstoppable force."

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, "Relax your body. With the One With the Sword state, I'll guide you in performing the 'karmic saber'. By the way, if you carry the ghost-handle saber on your back, it should improve your efficiency and comprehension in learning the 'karmic saber'. After all, it is a transformed form of a genuine karmic spear, and carries its own power of karma."

Song Shuhang carried the ghost-handle saber on his back.

Afterward, he completely relaxed and held Scarlet Heaven Sword in his right hand.

With the One With the Swaber state, Scarlet Heaven Sword guided Song Shuhang's body, slowly cutting forward.

Because it was in teaching mode, it decreased its speed, making it more convenient for Song Shuhang to learn and master the technique.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, "With you having just left the state of seeing 'karmic threads' and having this karmic spear, you're in the most suitable state for learning the karmic saber."

After the movement, its sword body paused slightly, just as if it had cut an invisible object. Afterward, it switched to a slash, and slashed down.

At the same time as the sword slashed down, the spiritual energy in Song Shuhang's body voluntarily followed a certain path, faintly affecting 'karma'.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, "How about it? Have you learned it?"

Song Shuhang looked dumbfounded. "Senior, I didn't see any 'karma' being slashed apart."

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, "There are no enemies in this consciousness space. What 'karma' is there to cut? For now, you should master this saber technique. After you learn it, go out and use it on some enemy."

"..." Song Shuhang. 

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, "Once again, there is a limit to the time we can remain in the One With the Sword state, so it'll be better for you to understand this move quickly."

Then, under its guidance, Song Shuhang's body began to slowly wield the sword again, practicing the 'karmic saber' move.

This is wonderful. I don't even need to practice the saber technique by myself. It's as if I'm cheating and increasing my skill proficiency without doing anything. I only need to lie back and relax while my skill proficiency continues to rise on its own. This is so cool. Song Shuhang suddenly had such a thought in his mind.

Recently, Song Shuhang had become increasingly obsessed with cultivating while relaxing.

Wait, I am now in the One With the Saber state with Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword… Can it sense my thoughts?

Theoretically speaking, when in the One With the Swaber state, he and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword were one. Did that mean that their thoughts were also shared?

Not good, will it become angry in this case?

Song Shuhang quietly observed Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, who was in his hands.

It continued to guide him in practicing the 'karmic saber' very seriously, and it didn't seem to be angry.

Song Shuhang secretly let out a breath of relief.

Then, he tried his best to suppress his thoughts and comprehend the 'karmic saber' wholeheartedly.

❄️❄️❄️

At this time, in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Fifth Stage Great Monster Doudou: "@Tyrannical Song, Shuhang, are you online today?"

Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "It seems that even today Shuhang is not online. Doudou, why not try pinging Senior White and seeing if they have left that small world yet?"

Fifth Stage Great Monster Doudou: "@Senior White."

Still no response.

"F*cking Meow, Shuhang and Senior White have been in that small world for quite some time now, right? Just what kind of small world did they enter for it to be so attractive that they haven't left until now?" Doudou said with a stifled heart. 

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: "Doudou, you stupid dog, go eat shiet!"

I'm that little white crane at the edge of the Earth's End: "Did Senior White and Song Shuhang go to that small world together?"

Fifth Stage Great Monster Doudou: "Yes."

True Monarch White Crane, who was far in the West, felt its hands on the keyboard stiffen slightly.

Fairy Lychee: "Doudou, your monster core is still giving you problems?"

"Yeah, that's why I've come online. It was to know what in the world Song Shuhang is doing recently!" Doudou said with a stifled heart. 

In the past few days, the mark of 'friendship' on its monster core had been boiling. This made it such that its abdomen felt hot all day, and it couldn't sleep a wink.

In addition, the warm sensation in its abdomen would remind it of an unbearable memory from the past from time to time.

Fairy Elegant Song [Soft Feather]: "Ah, I've finally got some time to go online."

In the past few days, she had been receiving insights and spiritual energy from her ghost spirit, causing her realm to shoot up. Because of this, she had to close up, and it was only today that she found some time to come online.

Doudou asked, "Huh? Soft Feather, your daoist name has changed again. Has Venerable Spirit Butterfly left his seclusion?"

Fairy Elegant Song [Soft Feather]: "Relying on others can't compare to relying on oneself. I came up with this new daoist name on my own 💪. By the way, I just went through some of the chat history, I might know why the mark on your monster core has been heating up. It should be because Senior Song's steel manifestation was captured and taken away by the 'Heavenly Emperor'."

"!!!" Doudou. 

Anxiety suddenly surged in Doudou's heart.
