Is that a Wisp?

Krune smiled before saying.

"Very well. Senior Tixan can come with me to watch the process if you wish to. It's also good since my understanding of this sword will never reach your own. That being said, we might increase the success rate if you participate."

Tixan nodded. Even if Krune didn't ask, he wouldn't leave his sword's side either way. It was just too important to him. It was then that Tixan thought about something else.

"Oh, right! What do you want as payment?"

Krune laughed, not minding it too much.

"It's fine. Since you're my grandmaster's friend, I can do it for free. It's not like I lack Spirit Stones anyway."

Tixan narrowed his eyes in response.

"No can do. It will go against my own personality."

Tixan then checked Krune with his Divine Sense before saying.

"It seems like you aren't a Heavenly Core Owner yet, right? I can get you an Ownerless Heavenly Fragment. How about that?"

Krune was surprised to hear that.

"Are you sure? These things are just too hard to find. I have no doubt that they'll be super expensive."

Tixan shook his head as he said.

"Don't worry. With this old man's power, I want to see who will refuse to negotiate with me. Hahaha!"

Krune couldn't help but feel sorry for the power behind the Heavenly Fragment he would get from Tixan. After he found about Tixan's real power, he was certain about one thing. He really wasn't sure if he could defeat Tixan at his actual level.

If it was any ordinary Peak Divinity Realm cultivator or Demon Beasts, Krune wouldn't care much. His time in the Godly Path Realm made him that much stronger. However, Tixan was obviously in a completely different league of his own.

'It's good that we aren't enemies.'

Lani didn't have much to do at the moment, so he also followed the two. During the next few days, Krune worked with Tixan to analyze that iron sword through and through. It turned out that Tixan's knowledge of his own sword truly helped him. He found points that even his Mental Energy failed to detect, all thanks to Tixan's commitment to that single sword.

After making sure that he couldn't obtain any more knowledge from it, Krune finally began the process of changing the iron sword into a Godly Iron type. He didn't hold back and used Top Quality Godly Energy Stones from the very start.

Tixan wasn't really focused on any specific primary element, so Krune used the Godly Energy Stones he got from Kun-Peng's body. Those ones were full of Space Laws and Energy, so they could be considered to be neutral.

Tixan was impressed by the energy inside those stones.

'As expected of the Wisp God. The things he got from the God Realm are incredibly impressive.'

Of course, he was also happy to see that his Iron Sword got to use those specific ones. It's just that he didn't know how much better those Godly Energy Stones were compared to the ones he would find in the Godly Path Realm. Krune didn't tell him about it either.

During the transformation process, the swords almost succumbed to the pressure of Godly Energy. If not because Krune was there to control the change, it would have definitely broken apart a long time ago. Fortunately, Tixan was even faster at noticing the issues with his iron sword, so he was able to warn Krune in advance.

Eventually, the excruciatingly time-consuming process was over three weeks later. Even with his cultivation, Krune felt quite tired. Nonetheless, he was pleased with the end result.

"Great! It was really a good thing that this sword was made from such a simple material. Otherwise, the process wouldn't have been this smooth."

Tixan's eyes lit up as he looked at his sword. He could tell that it was still the same but much more powerful than it had ever been.

"Just how good is the metal now compared to the Divinity Stars level materials in the Mortal Realm?"

Krune pondered for a bit before saying.

"Although it has become Godly Iron, it doesn't change the fact that it is still iron. Rare Divinity Stars Materials would still be stronger than it. That's just to show how common the material of Senior Tixan's sword is. However, it should have no problem comparing to a Semi-Divinity Stars level sword."

Tixan was more than delighted to hear that.

"Hahaha! That's great! Before, it wasn't anything other than a trashy iron sword, after all. Such a change would be enough for the sword to cleave through everything in the Mortal Realm. After all, it's my Sword Assimilation Power that provides it with the attack power and defense it showed in my battle against Lani."

Krune smiled after hearing that.

"However, this is just the result of the transformation. It's time to fill the cracks and use my Purple Flames to reforge the sword. Don't worry, Senior Tixan. The sword will still be the same one you always knew, but stronger. Oh, right!"

Krune then looked at Tixan before asking.

"Do you still have the pieces of this sword that broke during your usage?"

Tixan immediately nodded as he said.

"But of course! There was even a time when I went battling for ten days nonstop. In the end, a few chips fell from it everywhere. Believe it or not, I spent years looking for those broken pieces. Too bad I couldn't find two of them in the end."

Tixan then took a small bag from his Spatial Ring. Inside were the pieces that the sword lost until now.

"Great! You don't mind if I use them to make an alloy to fill up the cracks, right? If everything goes well, these pieces should fuse together with the sword again since they were part of it before. In the end, no flaws would be left behind."

Tixan pondered for a bit.

"As long as you don't take away anything from the actual sword, then that's fine."

Krune didn't waste time and immediately began to work on it. This time, however, the process was several times easier. Godly Iron was one of the easiest metals to work with in the Godly Path Realm, so there weren't many secrets in its usage. The only difference was that the alloy created with those pieces used more God-Level materials, just like Lani's staff.

A few hours later, Krune held the sword in his hands, checking it with his Divine Sense and Mental Energy.

"It's not perfect, but it definitely can't be compared to its previous form."

Following that, he passed the sword to Tixan, who received it with trembling hands.

"Let me check."

Tixan then sat on the floor and put the sword on his lap, just like Krune had done before. His consciousness dove into it, trying to find that feeling that only his iron sword gave him. Krune and Lani observed it with some tension. The process worked as Krune wanted. However, he wasn't sure if Tixan would consider it to be the same as before.

A few minutes later, Tixan opened his eyes again. Following that, tears began to flow down, much to Krune and Lani's shock.

"Senior Tixan, did I fail?"

Tixan shook his head as he got up with his iron sword.

"No. It's definitely my sword. I can feel the power it has now, but it's still the same sword my father gave me back them. I can only imagine how happy he would be if he saw how it turned out today. He definitely wouldn't tell me to throw it away again."

Following that, Tixan bowed to Krune to express his gratitude.

"This debt is as important as my own life. I will owe you for life."

Krune quickly stopped Tixan, though.

"That's too much, too much! I don't want it at all. Just make sure to treat it well as you always did."

Tixan nodded.

"Of course."

Right after, Tixan turned around and opened a Spatial Gate.

"Stay here in the Divine Path Sect. I'll go out and fetch that Ownerless Heavenly Fragment I told you. I'm not sure if it will be the one you need, though."

Krune laughed after hearing that.

"It's fine. I also know where to find a few others anyway. In any case, I'll stay here just as you say, senior."

Tixan nodded and immediately passed through the Spatial Gate. This time, he didn't have to break through the Divine Path Sect's Planet Protection Formation. Lani made sure to add him to the list of those who could enter. Not that he wanted it, but because it would be useless against Tixan's power.

After Tixan was gone, Lani couldn't help but comment.

"No wonder his power increases so much when he's using that sword. It's quite obvious just how important it is for him."

Krune nodded.

"This is good as well. With this sword and his Sword Assimilation Power, I doubt anyone in the Godly Path Realm will be his match at the same level. That's a good thing for grandmaster and him. After all, I don't know where you will be sent to when you arrive there. I dare say that Senior Tixan might be able to fight Mortal Rejection Realm cultivators and demon beasts from the very start."

Lani asked something else.

"I showed you my memories of that battle against him. In your opinion, who's stronger? You or Tixan?"

Krune pondered for a bit before saying.

"If it was with his normal Iron Sword, I would say that I have a 30% chance of winning. But with that new sword I made for him, I doubt I have a chance more than 10%. Senior Tixan is just that ridiculously strong."

Lani nodded. In any case, Krune was still 5 stages behind in his cultivation. Once he reached the Peak of the Divinity Realm, things might not be so simple.
