Chapter 181 - One Origin Sword
At that moment, in the center of the soul power ocean, there was a sword-shaped silver-white energy ball that floated in the air.
Above it was the sky fox lightning Phoenix mark, and below it was endless amounts of flames. There were also many spiritual runes which were connected to does 3 true spiritual talismans, causing this “sword” to also be surrounded with the power of fire and water as well as a purple lightning glow.
“This is the so-called sword embryo!”
Zong Zhou’s heart shook. His heart was filled with surprise.
That sword cultivation method had numerous factions and some were better than others. The one he succeeded in was recognized as the best method.
That was to gather various kinds of metal energy to forge the sword, after forming it to nourish and train it, to slowly form the sword shape. Then, one would merge it with the mind, using the soul to accumulate and grow it. It had a name which was called the illusionary spirit sword forging technique!
This illusionary spirit sword didn’t have a real form, but it could merge into all sorts of spiritual weapons, which was why one didn’t need to be afraid of it being destroyed and also didn’t need to worry about changing spiritual weapons.
If one cultivated it to the end, they would be able to make it real. The strength of it would be to less than those legendary top-grade god weapons.
The sword accumulating stone that Ye Feishuang gave him had already formed a sword shape, the energy within was also exceptional. It could be directly used as a sword embryo. After adding in the metal molding energy, it’s quality even directly jumped up by 2 grades causing Zong Shou to be unable to resist the temptation of the item and choose to merge with it on the spot.
However, now it was just a sword embryo. If one said that making the sword real was a hundred steps, he had only walked one and a half steps.
Zong Shou suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of looking forward appeared in it.
“Out of body!”
With a thought in his mind, the lightning tooth sword by his waist immediately flew up. Between Zong Shou’s eyebrows sword-shaped energy flew out and entered the lightning tooth sword.
It caused the energy of the lightning tooth sword to swell up, the spiritual energy fluctuations frantically increasing. The lighting glow wrapping around it also increased by several times.
In just that instance, it caused this grade 2 peak spiritual weapon to raise to grade 3.
Controlling it from afar, he made the lightning tooth sword spin about in this narrow carriage. It did many dazzling moves and drew many bright and beautiful arcs.
Zong Shou’s eyes were filled with more and more surprise. His control of the sword was so perfect that it was doing whatever he wanted. Apart from the strength being slightly weaker, in terms of the flexibility of the sword, it was no lesser than when he used his spirit to control the sword.
Even if he occasionally seemed a little rusty, that was because he hadn’t completely trained this sword root.
“Is this the second soul mentioned in spiritual cultivation? It is. Even a small embryo has such an ability. Since it is a sword, it must have a name. Comprehending the sword path, meshing hundreds of paths, ten thousand streams returning to one. This sword will hold my intent, it will be named the one origin sword!”
Causally giving his sword a name. Zong Shou reached out his hand, causing the lightning tooth sword to return into his hand. He activated the fire and water earth veins in it, and instantly, a 90 feet long sword energy spat out. Threads of lightning energy wrapped around it, looking sharp and terrifying.
The earth chakra initial meridian, a full 62 thousand kilograms of strength, had its energy spitting out 90 feet, no less than xiantian peak!
Such an achievement was enough for him to be happy about himself! At this moment, even if he met a 6 meridian martial ancestor he had the confidence in fighting with him to the death!
He patted his right hand and Little Gold’s body wrapped tightly around the sword body. Not Long later the sword turned silver-white. The spiritual energy that gathered on the sword was much stronger. It directly charged out of the 4th grade and mixed with Zong Shou’s energy. Without needing to do anything he was one with the sword!
Zong Shou instantly burst out laughing, keeping the lightning tooth sword back into the sheath. The spiritual sword he named as one energy sword was also kept back into his soul. At the moment Zong Shou’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit and determination.
“Let Zong Yuan change our path to the north! 3 days later I want to see Xuan Mountain City. Before I return to Gantian Mountain I want to meet my Father and Mother in law!”
Hu Zhongyuan’s body shook, looking towards Zong Shou in surprise. When his eyes laid on Zong Shou he lost his focus.
Zong Shou gave him an impression like a top sword that had just broken through its seals and was pulled out of the sheath. The moment it landed in the world there was nothing that could cover and block its unparalleled sharpness!
Chuxue and Ruo Shui were both shocked and stunned towards the energy changes of Zong Shou. Their senses were several times stronger.
In the last moment he was calm like water, the next moment his sharpness was revealed—his intent was descending on them! It was as if it could break apart all obstacles in the world. Nothing could block anything that the sword was pointing to.
Zong Shou himself had no feeling, only looking outside curiously.
“Weird, those two people didn’t follow along? Did something change with their spiritual ancestor cultivation who could create problems for them? Or did they give up on me?
…
Just as Zong Shou looked up into the sky, unable to understand—200 thousand feet in the air, energy and wind were shooting all over. Numerous destructive sound wave ripples broke out in all directions above.
Where clouds and mist were should have been, lightning glow gathered. However, 2 really strong powers forcefully broke aside it. Within a hundred thousand feet, all that remained were sword energy intersecting one another. Numerous lightning glows shone and exploded in this small space.
Shui Lingbo’s body had already shrunk to around a 14-year-old age. The lightning tattoos on her face had covered a small half of it. She continuously shifted and moved in the air. Every intent of hers gathered up a huge lightning dragon which roared out in the clouds. The sword in her hand danced with a red light, pretty much-occupying half of the sky.
However, there were numerous wounds on her body, blood flowing continuously. She seemed like she was in a bad spot. If one looked carefully, one could see that her wounds were healing at a quick rate. However, there was also some strength which was tearing it apart at an even quicker speed.
On the contrary, Yan Fan who was standing in front of her was uninjured. Although the aura around him was weaker, like it was being suppressed, his expression looked calm and composed.
Be it the lightning glow or the sword image, he just broke them in one sword, using one sword to destroy it!
“As expected from a disciple of a martial saint! Your energy meridians are vast and your spiritual energy is strong, pretty much endless. I am far weaker than you and am ashamed of it. Only your days of cultivation are too short and in terms of the martial path, I am ahead of you by hundreds of years. Fairy till date you still won’t admit defeat? We have already fought for half a month and haven’t rested for even a moment! I have shown you mercy numerous times and you should know it…”
Shui Lingbo didn’t speak, her body and bones constricted once more. On that petite face appeared more flame tattoos.
In an instance, tens of millions of feet of cloud were covered in flames. She laughed coldly, “So what can you do if I don’t admit defeat? If you have the abilities, then kill me. Just use it all out! Good, you finally used your all your strength today! However are you not afraid of destroying this entire Donglin Cloud Continent, killing hundreds of millions? All you people who say that you chase the correct path are disgusting when you do things!”
“Keke!
Who could predict that the kid could make use of water to break his bodily chakra and use only his strength to destroy the barriers from heaven? That was something I didn’t expect. His future is unpredictable. If he goes onto the right path, he would be the blessing of the entire continent, if he became a devil, he would become a huge problem, dragging down all the people with him. Even if I might harm the innocent today, I don’t fear anything! I will go all out!”
Yan Fan sighed helplessly as he said that, “Furthermore you are the one who snatched my person so why do this? Speaking of which, I have to thank you for restricting your spells such that you didn’t affect the living beings below…”
“Tsk! Don’t think that only your people care about lives! If you want to talk about all these big theories, although my common people path is seen as devilish, we care for the life of the common people! Yan Fan stop bullshitting. You know what you are thinking about. How would cultivators like us care about all this? Most of the time we will just follow the flow and act on behalf of the heavens. Who cares about the life or death of people in the cloud world? Do we care about the lives of ants? With the spiritual wave about to begin, apart from those few high above, many experts from many worlds will arrive here. Which one of our 10 shrines and 19 spirit houses would not face the danger of being wiped out? How could you say that I snatched him? If I didn’t act 10 over days ago, you should have directly snatched him right?”
Seeing Yan Fan’s face filled with a bitter smile and helplessness, Shui Lingbo was filled with killing intent, “The passing down of the sect is more important than anything else. Even if I give up anything, I will get that Zong Shou into my Taiyuan Sect!”
Before he waited for her sword light to explode out, only to see Yan Fan’s body flash and retreated to hundred thousand feet away.
Just as Shui Lingbo showed that she couldn’t understand, Yan Fan shook his head, “During these few days I have thought about it. If we continue like this, there won’t be a solution. Don’t you think that with his talents, his place isn’t something the both of us or our sects can decide?”
Shui Lingbo was startled, taking in a deep breath and keeping her sword back into her sheath.
“So what do you think we should do?”
“I will inform my master and the head of the sword sect!”
As he said that, Yan Fan sighed once more, “Let the masters of our sects decide where this kid belongs to? At most 3 months and we will have a result.”
Shui Lingbo furrowed her brows once more, after a short moment she nodded, “I will follow your intentions. Which sect this kid joins would be decided by the seniors! Let’s hope at that time you wouldn’t don’t against your word!”
After she finished she turned around as she threw her sleeves backward. She covered a hundred miles in a moment, directly disappearing from this empty sky.
Moments later, Yan Fan’s face started to wither at a shocking rate. His eyes were filled with helplessness. The losses from this battle were no less than one heavenly tribulation.
