“You’re Xin Wu’s descendant?”
Xie Qing looked so lost when he witnessed such a shocking scene until this faint voice rang in his ear, did he come back to reality. He realized he was not being chained down, so he knelt on the floor instantly.
“Disciple Xie Qing, my ancestor was indeed Xie Xin Wu.”
“Xin Wu was a good child.” he sighed lightly as though he was a breeze.
On top of the platform, the back facing silhouette standing amongst the hundred thousand broken sword turned around. Everyone looked closer and saw his looks. He was skinny and looked like a man in his forties. He had deep set eyes and was wearing a grey coloured blademaster cloths. It looked slightly loose on him.
Shrugging his sleeves, Tang Tian only felt his body loosening. He could actually move again.
King Qilin and the others gained their freedom too and gathered together. Tang Tian and the others gathered together too.
“He’s a martial spirit!” Arctic Fox muttered. His eyes glimmered with an unstoppable glow, “We’re in the spirit domain of the Demon Sealing Sword.”
Everyone was stunned. Arctic Fox had the highest sensitivity and was the most knowledgeable one amongst them.
“Indeed, it is a Saint treasure. It’s so powerful!” Arctic Fox sighed a breath of compliment: “if we defeat him, we can get this sword.”
“He’s too strong.” Python Fang said coldly.
“Use that technique.” Arctic Fox said without hesitating: “Only with that technique will we have a chance. If we win it, it’s ours. That saint treasure. It’s the only chance we will ever have in our lifetime.”
Everyone fell silent. That was right, this saint treasure was within grasp. This is also their only chance in their entire life, they were considered lucky as hell. If they missed this chance, they might not find another.
But, if they used that technique…
All of their gazes fell onto King Qilin. They were waiting for his decision.
King Qilin was speechless.
*******************************************************
Tang Tian’s body recovered as per usual. Back to his usual self, he asked curiously: “what’s this place? Why are there so much grey mist. It feels weird that I can’t see far ahead!”
“This is the spirit domain of the Demon Sealing Sword.” Crane said calmly.
“Spirit domain?” Tang Tian was shocked. Everyone turned towards Crane.
“Mhmm, only a gold ranked treasure has such a capacity.” Crane explained carefully when everybody looked as though they did not understand: “you can treat each treasure as a small world. These worlds are the source of energy for the martial spirit. There are some that are perfect, while some are broken. For gold ranked treasures, their martial spirits are very strong so, they can form a space for themselves containing their source of energy.
“Sounds profound.” Tang Tian muttered.
Crane chuckled..
Bell did not have a good temper. She shot Ling Xu a look, “Who could move under that power just now? The power of spirit domain is very strong. Only if your powers are on par with the treasure, will you have the chance to break the spirit domain. This spirit domain we are in now, I don’t think anyone can break through it.”
“Why?” Tang Tian asked subconsciously.
“Because this spirit domain, the guardian martial spirit is a sword saint.” Bell looked seriously, “Who could break through this kind of spirit domain?”
Now, everyone was speechless.
That’s right, even if it had turned into a martial spirit, the sword saint was still formidable. Everyone had a taste of it earlier on. There were innumerable martial artists who cultivated sword and yet, there were only a handful that could be called a saint throughout history.
Obviously, Bell knew a lot about the Crypto-Sword Saint. She mumbled on, “Each sword saint had a Saint platform, which is that platform. The Saint platform of Crypto-Sword Saint is called Desolated Swords Cluster. On top of the Desolated Swords Cluster are a hundred thousand broken swords. All these hundred thousand broken swords, were used by the sword saint before he was bestowed the title.”
Swish, everyone sighed and looked shocked
Hundreds of thousands of swords that were broken from cultivation…
Crane, who was usually calm, was taken by surprise. Suddenly, he turned and stared at the tall, mighty, Saint platform and looked at it in awe. He too was cultivating the sword technique, how could he not know about the Saint platform?
When the sword saint is bestowed the title, he would communicate his intentions with the heavens and earth. All the living things would listen to the sword and form a Saint platform according to his wishes.
Each Saint platform for each sword saint was different. According to rumours, the Saint platform represented the sword saint’s understanding of the sword.
Desolated Swords Cluster!
Crane repeated this odd name. That was his goal, his future.
Sword saint!
Just with these two words, his blood was boiling. Subconsciously, he tightened his grip around Crane Sword in his hand. Nobody knows the sword in his hand was the Crane Sword, a Saint treasure.
The only gold ranked treasure of the Crane Constellation!
It was as though he held his head up high as the Crane Sword trembled slightly in his hands.
***********************************************************
“It’s been tough on you.”
With this sentence, Xie Qing’s vision turned blurry. Countless seniors stayed through everything, for this sentence. From the moment he understood things, the seniors in the villagers would tell him, they were all guardians of the sword.
These words grew up with him.
The village guarded the infertile grounds, guarded a god-knows-where sword, abided to their ancestors teaching in loss and in doubt. It had never left them before.
Xie Qing did not dare open his mouth for he fear that he might break down and cry. He had cried several times today which was much more than the twenty years he had been living. This was the first time he realised he was not as strong as he thought he was.
As though being struck by lightning, countless thoughts and intentions flowed through Xie Qing’s mind.
An icy cold grey sword pressed onto Xie Qing’s shoulders as a faint sound rang in his head.
“Although your qualities are all very normal, but you’re a decent man. I feel safe with the Crypto-Sword Current in your hands. As for this sword, I’ll seal it within the Spirit Domain. When you are able to cultivate the sect’s unique martial technique, it will be activated.”
Xie Qing blurted, “What’s the unique martial technique?”
The voice on top of his head remained quiet.
Suddenly, a strong burst of Qi surged into the sky. Xie Qing was in a daze, then he turned around quickly.
The five hitmen had formed a circle with their hands interconnected. All the beasts painted on their chests came alive. One arctic fox, one steel horse, one crocodile and one huge python. They cruised along their arms and gathered on the five coloured Qilins on King Qilin’s body.
Five Beasts joining together as one!
Such ferocious Qi exploded from King Qilin’s body.
Murderous, explosive, Qi spewed towards them like raging waves.
Tang Tian’s face changed drastically. Currently, King Qilin’s Qi was much stronger. Although it was the aftermath, but Tang Tian was suffocating from this new layer of energy. Not just him, everyone around him looked ugly as they were all stunned.
They were like a legendary beast awakening from its deep sleep!
Just their Qi was enough to suffocate everyone!
“What’s happening?” Tang Tian asked anxiously, “Why are they so strong all of a sudden?”
“Conjoint techniques! That is a conjoint technique!” Bell’s face was drained of her colour. Her voice shook, “All of their strengths are combined as one. God, five Heaven’s Road martial artists have conjoined together…”
Crane’s face was no longer painted with a smile. There was only anxiousness in his eyes. So powerful…
Damn it!
For the first time, he had a sense of failure. He grasped the Crane Sword in his hand tightly, but the feeling of defeat in his heart did not lessen.
The entire grey mist in the spirit city was now being spread out crazily by this terrifying Qi. The floor shook so badly as though the entire spirit domain was about to collapse.
Suddenly, King Qilin laughed sinisterly.
The qilins on his chest rose with the intention to fight. All the other four beasts were situated each at his limb. A surge of powers filled up every corner of his body. It was like then entire heaven and earth was beneath his feet.
This feeling was so amazing!
Right now, all the other four men were laying on the ground.
It was a pity that this power was only temporary…
Saint treasure!
Stomping on the ground, the entire spirit domain that was filled with a sea of mist was struck as though it had been hit. The boundless space was suddenly tainted with several transparent cracks.
Xie Qing’s hands were icy cold. Just as he wanted to shout for everyone else, the sword on his shoulder was suddenly kept back.
A grey blademaster clothes appeared in front of him. The Crypto-Sword Saint was strolling as though he did not see the cracks around the spirit domain. His pace was relaxed and slow.
Walking for about three feet, he stopped suddenly and said a word.
“Did you ask what is our sect’s unique martial technique?”
The Crypto-Sword Saint fell silent and suddenly answered, “Then let me tell you, it’s called…”
His tone was so calm and all the frightened sea of mist also calmed down as though there was an invisible gigantic hand brushing against the sea of mist, easing it.
King Qilin tilted his head and looked at his opponent with ridicule.
Sword saint, so what if you are the sword saint?
A sword saint spirit general dated back to over a hundred years ago. Who knows how much you have deteriorated. With just one stomp, I have resulted in several cracks around the spirit domain. How weak.
He raised his arm slowly and revealed a sly smile. Idiot, who cares about your unique martial technique!
I just want this sword!
Go and Die!
Widening his eyes, King Qilin brandished his fist and suddenly, a indiscernible sound resonated.
“Great Empty Sword!”
Three words resounded from the desolated swords cluster, causing the entire spirit domain to tremble!
A sword pierced through King Qilin’s brain. King Qilin stared in shock as he froze. All the terrifying strength in his body collided together as though it was a flame which had lost control.
This sword…
Where did it come from…
Bang!
King Qilin then exploded into a glistening light ball.
“Remember its name”
A faint voice emerged from the Desolate Swords Cluster. A grey silhouette stood.
