Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 237 - 227: Five Years
Half a day later.
Ghostly wails and wolf howls echoed throughout the Dragon Abyss Society.
"Holy smokes, Su Yaoshuang! Are you defying the heavens? From now on, you’re my big sis! Even the club president has to step back!"
"An exclusive interview with Hall Master Alkaid!? Even though it’s just in text, who exactly is Hall Master Alkaid? Leading the Sea Fortification Courtyard twice against the Great Sun Sword Sect Patrol Heaven Warship, and achieving two brilliant and resounding victories, capturing the warships no less! You managed to get an interview with such a significant figure!?"
"President Su, be honest with me! You’re not Hall Master Alkaid’s illegitimate daughter, are you? Just staying in our Dragon Abyss Society to experience life? "
Members of the Dragon Abyss Society crowded around Su Yaoshuang, looking at her as if she were a deity.
"Alright Gao Longfei, stop talking nonsense. Are we qualified to speculate and guess about someone like Hall Master Alkaid? Besides, as far as I know, Hall Master Alkaid is not old, just exceptionally talented, which allowed him to achieve great accomplishments at such a young age."
Long Yuwu reprimanded.
Immediately turning towards Su Yaoshuang, she revealed a smile, "Well done, Shuangshuang, you’ve really brought me a huge surprise. I won’t ask how you managed to secure this interview, but this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our ’Listening to the Dragon Chant’ column! An exclusive interview with Hall Master Alkaid! This appeal is tremendous. If done right, we really might become the top ’war’ column in Dragon Majestic City, even in the entire Nine Heavens Domain!"
"Hall Master Alkaid… he is really a kind person. I just mentioned it, and to my surprise, he actually accepted…"
Su Yaoshuang briefly explained.
She did not dwell further on the topic, "Shall we immediately edit the content and release it?"
"Edit? What for? Not a single word that Hall Master Alkaid said can be omitted. Just release the whole thing!"
As Long Yuwu spoke, she seemed to recall something, adding another comment, "You didn’t ask any questions that might negatively affect Hall Master Alkaid’s or the sect’s image, did you?"
"No, I might not have graduated yet, but I am still somewhat of a professional. I naturally know what should and shouldn’t be asked."
Su Yaoshuang promptly replied.
"That’s good then, let’s prepare it and release it!"
Long Yuwu, eager and in haste, spoke again, "Notify the higher-ups and apply for the highest level of recommendation. I am sure they will definitely not refuse."

As Long Yuwu had anticipated.
Soon, the interview, despite being textual and brief, became wildly popular in the Void Divine Realm.
Alkaid noticed and even allowed Su Yaoyu to log in to the official account of Purple Cloud Courtyard and like the post.
After all…
This was an interview about the Purple Cloud 15 external type flying sword.
It was an advertisement for this type of flying sword to some extent, and it was normal for Purple Cloud Courtyard to show appreciation.
However, such a simple interaction made the "Listening to Dragon Chants" interview instantly viral.
Its popularity exploded beyond Dragon Majestic City and the Nine Heavens Domain, and flared across the entire Nine Cauldrons Sect.
Alkaid himself was unaware of how popular he was within the Nine Cauldrons Sect in the Void Divine Realm.
After all, in his view, he was very low-key.
But what he did not know was that this low-key nature only added a layer of mystique to him.
Especially when compared to the feats he had achieved in just a few years…
It was nothing short of legendary!
Upon taking over the Purple Cloud Courtyard, which was on the verge of being downgraded, he immediately launched the Purple Cloud 12 series flying swords, sending the Purple Cloud Courtyard soaring to new heights.
In the Cangwu Realm market, he secured a massive order from the Golden Temple, breaking through revenues of a million.
Following that, the cultivators of Nine Cauldrons Sect, armed with the Purple Cloud 12 series’ sharpness, decisively defeated the Xuanming Sect in the East Sea Archipelago, forcing their high-rank sword cultivators into hiding.
And afterwards…
The Purple Cloud 13 flying swords emerged, breaking the technical shackles that the Nine Cauldrons Sect could not forge third-generation interior grade flying swords.
Soon after the debut of Purple Cloud 13, Purple Cloud 15 appeared swiftly, quickly equipped to Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy, and soon a fierce battle broke out with Xuanming Sect in the East Sea Archipelago.
In this battle, it was said that the eventual result was a formidable 300 to 0!
More than three hundred great cultivators of Xuanming Sect were slaughtered, and on the side of Nine Cauldrons Sect…
Not a single casualty.
Following this, the legendary path gradually morphed into myth.
Alkaid led the Sea Fortification Courtyard in intercepting the Great Sun Sword Sect, capturing the Spring Rain Vessel.
Not long ago, facing the formidable provocation from the Great Sun Sword Sect, and even with the Vajra invading deep into the Nine Heavens Domain, he led a thunderous counterattack with the Sea Fortification Courtyard, again capturing the Vajra.
Truly realizing the slogan chanted by Nine Cauldrons Sect decades ago—undelivered by flying swords or warships, the enemy brings us supplies right to our doorstep.
Compared to that, the achievements by Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy combined, leaving a mark on the Great Sun Sword Sect’s Shenshan Academy, seemed less impressive.
With so much good news, the shock has become somewhat numbing.
In such circumstances, everyone’s longing, curiosity, and respect for Alkaid had reached an all-time high.
Suddenly, there was a place that announced an exclusive interview with Hall Master Alkaid, which was not the usual rumor but was certified by the official Purple Cloud Courtyard…
Everyone seemed to find an outlet for their emotions and a channel for sharing, and they flocked to it instantly.
Countless individuals spoke up, expressing their gratitude to Alkaid for everything, and likewise, pride in the Nine Cauldrons Sect for having the world-leading Purple Cloud 15 flying swords.
...
Observing the fervor in the Void Divine Realm, Alkaid took a glance before moving on.
At this moment, he had already returned to the Third Patrol Heaven Research Institute.
As one sect after another visited the Nine Cauldrons Sect, the overall situation in the Eastern Sea had settled down.
In the region of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, the Brahma Heavenly Kingdom was also considerably more subdued.
After all, they were still busy competing with the Brahma Sect and Brahma Heaven Sect for the rightful claim to the Brahma orthodoxy and would not provoke the Nine Cauldrons Sect unless absolutely necessary.
Since they occupied the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, they had no immediate plans to claim more territories.
In this situation, Alkaid was analyzing the Vajra warship while designing the new generation of Patrol Heaven warships, and from time to time, he returned to the Purple Cloud Courtyard to craft the Purple Cloud 15 commercial version flying swords and improved Purple Cloud 16 personal version flying swords.
Besides these busy work tasks, his most pressing concern was to refine the Crimson Red Gold Core into an external elixir.
However, with his current weak cultivation in Qi Refinement, he could only prepare for the making of the external elixir.
Time...
It passed in an orderly manner throughout this process.
Everyone has their own responsibilities to shoulder.
Everyone has their tasks to attend to.
The entire Nine Cauldrons Sect maintained this thriving and progressive atmosphere, and in a blink, five years had passed.
...
The testing ground of the Third Patrol Heaven Research Institute.
At this moment, in this field enveloped by layers of reinforced formations, the test being conducted was not the offensive capability of the Patrol Heaven warship’s formations.
But...
It was Alkaid’s own defensive power.
"Whoosh!"
Accompanied by the whizzing of the sword light through the air.
The Purple Cloud 16 modified version flying sword held by Tang Fenghua, which had reached the Fifth Generation flying sword level, shone like a fleeting streak of light and incredibly fast shot towards Alkaid.
Due to the incredible speed of the sword, the compression of air by the sword edge even surpassed the air’s conductivity of energy.
So much so that when the flying sword reached before Alkaid, no trace was left in the void.
Until...
"Buzz, buzz!"
Alkaid valiantly reached out and precisely grabbed the flying sword in his hand, and allowed it to continually vibrate until the booming sound that formed in the void finally erupted.
But before it could cause any damage to the surroundings, the surrounding formations absorbed all its kinetic energy.
As the kinetic energy was absorbed by the formations, the flying sword, tightly gripped in Alkaid’s hand, lost its ability to struggle and lay motionless.
Then, Alkaid stretched his hand and threw the flying sword back towards Tang Fenghua in the distance, "Continue!"
"No more."
Tang Fenghua, slightly pale-faced, shook his head, "Can’t break through."
He looked at Alkaid with a hint of respect and awe in his eyes, "You are... about to become a Star God?"
"I’m still a bit short of the necessary seasoning to become a Star God,"
Alkaid replied.
"Not a Star God, yet you could block my flying sword attack head on? And it seemed so effortless?"
Tang Fenghua found it somewhat hard to believe.
You should know, the Purple Cloud 16 modified version flying sword in his hand was undeniably a Fifth Generation flying sword.
Flying swords...
Every two generations higher could allow a lower ranked cultivator to overcome opponents of higher ranks.
According to a widely recognized classification system within the Cangwu Great World, in situations where no weapons are used, the combat strength of Foundation Establishment cultivators can be divided into five ranks.
Having built his Dao Foundation and cultivated to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, Tang Fenghua’s combat power equated to the Fourth Rank.
With this Fifth Generation flying sword, theoretically, he was able to contend against those who had built their Immortal Foundation and were at the late stage of Foundation Establishment using Third Generation flying swords.
If his own side held an absolute advantage in Primordial Spirit enhancement, relying on the characteristics of the Purple Cloud series flying swords, he could even emerge victorious.
Yet, with this level of strength, his all-out thrust with the sword was easily blocked by Alkaid, and he...
Was still not a Star God!
"From my understanding... a Fifth Rank Great Sword Cultivator holding a Superior Grade Treasure Level Third Generation flying sword is supposed to have the ability to harm a First Generation Star God... after all, sword cultivators... are known for their sharp and fierce attacks..."
Tang Fenghua was a bit puzzled.
"Although I have not stepped into the realm of the Star Gods, due to some special reasons, the intensity of the Stellar Power Field I can utilize now is indeed comparable to that of a First Generation Star God,"

Alkaid explained with a smile.
"Not a Star God, yet able to wield a Star God level Stellar Power Field..."
Tang Fenghua watched Alkaid with a shimmering gaze, "It seems, Hall Master, when the time comes, you will certainly bring forth new ideas and carve out a path of the Fourth Generation Star Gods."
"Fourth Generation Star Gods... Don’t even mention Fourth Generation. Even becoming a First Generation Star God, I estimate it might take ten years without hope,"
Alkaid said, sighing, "There’s something you might not have noticed... Wu Qingying Hall Master’s alchemy has still not made a breakthrough."
