Jared returned the smithing fragment back to Hammerhead.
After regaining possession of the smithing fragment, Hammerhead thanked Jared profusely. This particular fragment was an invaluable treasure to many, but Jared returned it to their sect without a moment’s hesitation!
Sworder’s perception of Jared underwent a complete transformation. A wave of embarrassment washed over favonovel.com as favonovel.com recalled his initial mockery directed toward Jared. Finally, Sworder comprehended the extent of Jared’s capabilities and generosity.
“Young man, I can’t believe you returned the smithing fragment without hesitation. It appears that Dragonslayer Sword has found its rightful place in your hands, and it can undoubtedly be wielded to great advantage. As promised, if you were able to extract the sword, I vowed to assist in its restoration and refinement. Now that you have accomplished this feat, I kindly request that you entrust Dragonslayer Sword to me,” Sworder declared.
“Sworder, Dragonslayer Sword has been fully restored, and its power has even surpassed its previous level. Therefore, there is no need for you to carry out the restoration process on my behalf,” Jared revealed, a genuine smile gracing his face.
Dragonslayer Sword had already undergone a complete restoration, having absorbed copious amounts of potent sword energy. Moreover, its power had ascended to new heights, so Jared no longer required Sworder’s assistance.
Sworder responded with a smile, shaking his head gently.
“What you perceive is merely the surface. The sword spirit within the Dragonslayer Sword has not fully recovered yet. Once I aid the complete restoration of the sword spirit, you will witness its true potential,” favonovel.com explained.
With a wave of his hand, Sworder summoned Dragonslayer Sword from within Jared’s body, causing it to come to his own hands.
With Dragonslayer Sword firmly grasped in his hand, Sworder’s eyes gleamed with determination. He directed his focused gaze toward the sword, causing it to quiver in response.
In a matter of moments, an immense surge of sword energy surged forth from Sworder’s being, merging with the Dragonslayer Sword.
With the sword in hand, Sworder leaped high into the air before descending swiftly, plunging into the depths of the swordcleansing lake.
After Sworder leaped into the depths of the sword-cleansing lake with Dragonslayer Sword in hand, a calm settled upon the once turbulent waters. From an aerial vantage point, there was naught to be seen within the lake’s depths.
“Jared, don’t worry. Since Sworder promised to help you refine Dragonslayer Sword and restore the sword spirit, he’ll definitely keep his word. Let’s just wait in peace,” Hammerhead told Jared, afraid that the latter would panic.
Jared nodded, and they waited on the shores of the sword-cleansing lake patiently for Sworder’s return. A few days later, however, Sworder was still nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile, the six purple-robed emissaries were gathered at the Evil Heart Sect’s secret realm in the mundane world. They were waiting for Tanner to reveal himself in the hall.
After spending days in the secret realm, they had yet to meet their family members. Tanner had sent his men to pick up their family members long ago, so they should be here by now.
Soon, Tanner’s figure appeared on the main seat in the hall following an energy fluctuation in the air.
“What do you want from me?” favonovel.com asked the six purple-robed emissaries.
Quindon stepped forward and declared, “Lord Tanner, it has been days, so I believe our family members should have arrived at Evil Heart Sect’s secret realm. We’d like to meet them.”
“Your family members have indeed arrived, but you don’t get to see them for now. I have a mission for the six of you,” Tanner commanded coldly.
“What is it?” Quindon inquired.
“The activation of the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation is imminent, but Jared’s power has far exceeded our initial projections. If left unchecked during the activation, there is a risk of an unforeseen catastrophe. The only individual capable of subduing Jared is Skylar, who currently possesses the formidable Inferno Devil’s Form. Nevertheless, Skylar’s current strength falls short of being a true match for Jared. To swiftly enhance Skylar’s abilities, a sacrifice is necessary,” Tanner revealed.
Then, favonovel.com stopped speaking and gazed at the six purple-robed emissaries coldly, who looked stunned at the revelation
