Chapter 674: Grade Three Spirit Sword
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
The differences in the levels of spectating areas of the Darkhan Dynasty’s Capital’s Cage Battle Arena was something that one could know clearly by slightly inquiring about it.
The old man that asked King Yong had obviously long since known of this.
"Yes." King Yong nodded when faced with the old man’s question.
"He said the Feng Clan earlier? Feng Clan… Could it be that Feng Clan?" When the figures of Duan Ling Tian and the three Feng Clan members vanished before their eyes, another old man reacted to the meaning within Duan Ling Tian’s words, and his pupils couldn’t help but constrict as he asked with shock.
Subsequently, the gazes of the old men descended onto King Yong in unison.
Who within the territory of the Darkhan Dynasty didn’t know of the Feng Clan?
The Feng Clan was a formidable clan that was merely inferior to the Imperial Family in the Darkhan Dynasty.
Supposedly, even the Darkhan Dynasty’s Imperial Family doesn’t dare to really come into conflict with the Feng Clan.
Perhaps, with the Imperial Family’s hidden reserves and resources, it was sufficient to annihilate the Feng Clan.
But even if the Feng Clan is annihilated, the Imperial Family would surely be greatly injured in the process as well.
How terrifying the Feng Clan was could be known from this.
It was precisely because of this that the Feng Clan’s status in the Darkhan Dynasty was exceedingly high, and it could be said to be below one and above all!
Now, a mere young man from the Darkstone Empire actually seemed to be related to the higher-ups of the Feng Clan?
This caused them to be shocked.
"Exactly, it’s the Feng Clan." King Yong nodded when faced with the old men’s questions.
As far as he was concerned, this was no secret.
It was even to the extent that so long as the higher-ups of the various powers in the Darkhan Dynasty were to gather together, then the identity of that person from the Feng Clan would surely be exposed, and it would be difficult to be concealed.
Although they had already guessed it, when they heard King Yong personally admit it, the old men couldn’t help but gasp.
"King Yong, do you know which person of the Feng Clan’s higher-ups is that person?" An old man couldn’t refrain from asking curiously.
"Whoever is the strongest in the Feng Clan… He is that person." King Yong spoke slowly.
At the same time that the old men were dumbstruck, King Yong called out to the other eight young geniuses of the Darkstone Empire and flew off with them.
Only after the figures of King Yong and the others vanished in the horizon did the old men recover from their shock, and all of them were visibly moved.
"I truly never imagined that not only has a young expert appeared in the Darkstone Empire… That young expert is even related to that Eldest Master of the Feng Clan!"
"It isn’t as simple as being related… If I’m not wrong, the red clothed young woman that followed by the Feng Clan’s Eldest Master’s side earlier ought to be that young woman that gave rise to much discussion lately, the daughter of the Feng Clan’s Eldest Master, Lord Wu Dao!"
"It looked to me that Lord Wu Dao’s daughter was very close with Duan Ling Tian… Could it be that the two of them…?"
…
At the same time that the old men guessed, they couldn’t refrain from gasping.
"Looks like not only can we not offend Duan Ling Tian… Even the Darkstone Empire can’t be offended in the future!" In next to no time, the old men had come to a mutual view.
Duan Ling Tian naturally didn’t know all this.
Presently, he’d already returned to the Feng Clan Estate with Feng Wu Dao, Feng Tian Wu, and Elder Kong, and returned to the estate within the estate.
Grandma Xu had prepared a sumptuous feast for their dinner.
After they ate their fill, Elder Kong looked at Duan Ling Tian. "Brother Duan…"
"Huh?" Duan Ling Tian looked curiously at Elder Kong, and he had slight bewilderment in his eyes.
He didn’t know what Elder Kong wanted to do.
Whoosh!
With a raise of his hand, a completely pitch black three foot long blade had appeared in Elder Kong’s hand, and there were strands of a black colored sheen flowing about in the surroundings of the blade.
"Grade four Spirit Sword!" With a single glance, Duan Ling Tian discerned the grade of this spirit sword, and at the same time, he guessed the reason Elder Kong withdrew this spirit sword, causing his heart to go slightly warm.
"Brother Duan, I know that you use swords… During the Dynasty Martial Competition tomorrow, you’ll surely encounter some young experts of the Darkhan Dynasty that possess grade four spirit weapons. If you don’t possess a grade four spirit weapon, then you’ll be disadvantaged.
"This grade four spirit sword is something I asked an old friend to refine many years ago, and I’ll gift it to you today." As Elder Kong spoke, he passed over the grade four spirit sword to Duan Ling Tian.
However, Duan Ling Tian didn’t stretch out his hand to receive it, and he shook his head instead. "Elder Kong, keep it… I don’t need this grade four spirit sword."
I don’t need it.
Duan Ling Tian’s attitude was extremely clear, he didn’t need this grade four spirit sword.
"Brother Duan, it isn’t the time to be polite now… How about this, if you’re really don’t want to keep this sword of mine, then take it as I’m lending it to you. How about it?" Elder Kong thought that Duan Ling Tian wasn’t willing to accept his gift, and he took a step back and suggested.
When she saw Duan Ling Tian remaining indifferent, Feng Tian Wu who sat by Duan Ling Tian’s side couldn’t watch on any longer, and she persuaded as well. "Big Brother Duan, take it. This is Grandpa Kong’s good intentions."
"Moreover, it’s just as Grandpa Kong said. During the Dynasty Martial Competition tomorrow, most of the young geniuses of the Darkhan Dynasty will surely possess grade four spirit weapons… You’ll be at a disadvantage if you don’t possess a grade four spirit weapon." As she finished speaking, Feng Tian Wu herself was slightly anxious.
When Feng Tian Wu started persuading him, the corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth curled into a slightly bitter smile.
After Feng Tian Wu finished speaking, the bitter smile on the corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth grew even deeper.
"Tian Wu, Elder Kong, I know both of you have good intentions… But I really don’t need this grade four spirit sword!" Duan Ling Tian spoke helplessly.
In this age, why don’t people believe you when you speak the truth?
Grade four spirit sword?
That was only a left over of his, and it was no different than trash to him.
"All of you can stop persuading him… In terms of grade, that spirit sword in Ling Tian’s possession is much higher than the spirit sword in Elder Kong’s hands." Right when Feng Tian Wu and Elder Kong were stunned, Feng Wu Dao spoke out, and his words seemed as if he was extremely clear of Duan Ling Tian’s ability.
Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but gasp.
Never had he imagined that the sword strike he struck out and had appeared for only a brief moment during the first phase of the Dynasty Martial Competition today had actually been seen through by Feng Wu Dao.
"In terms of grade, it’s even higher than this spirit sword?" Feng Wu Dao’s words caused Elder Kong to be unable to help but gasp, and he muttered as he looked at the black sword in his hand.
Didn’t that mean that the spirit sword in Duan Ling Tian’s possession is a spirit sword that possessed a grade even higher than grade four?
Could it be a grade three spirit sword?
"Father, what you mean is… The spirit sword in Big Brother Duan’s possession is a grade three spirit sword?" Meanwhile, Feng Tian Wu recovered from her shock and asked with a trembling voice.
Even to her, a grade three spirit weapon was an existence that was far beyond her reach.
It was only because a grade three Weapons Craftsman didn’t exist in the Darkhan Dynasty, so it was extremely difficult for a grade three spirit weapon to appear.
Within the Darkhan Dynasty, there was only a single grade three spirit weapon that was known of, and it was in the possession of the Darkhan Dynasty’s Imperial Family.
Even the Feng Clan didn’t possess a grade three spirit weapon.
Now, she heard that Duan Ling Tian possessed a grade three spirit weapon, so how could she not be shocked?
"This is something you have to ask him." Feng Wu Dao didn’t reply directly, and instead looked at Duan Ling Tian who had a helpless expression.
"Big Brother Duan…" Instantly, Feng Tian Wu looked at Duan Ling Tian. "You really have a grade three spirit sword?"
"Yes." Duan Ling Tian didn’t deny it, and he had no intentions of denying it.
After all, so long as he wanted to participate in the Dynasty Martial Competition, then the grade three spirit sword in his possession would be exposed sooner or later.
Exposing it sooner or later was actually the same.
Moreover, he trusted the people before him and wasn’t afraid that they would arouse malicious intentions because of the grade three spirit weapon in his possession.
"Big… Big Brother Duan… Can you let me see your grade three spirit sword? I’ve never seen a grade three spirit weapon." Feng Tian Wu was excited to the point her beautiful face was slightly rosy, and she looked at Duan Ling Tian with a yearning gaze.
"Of course." Duan Ling Tian nodded and didn’t hesitate in the slightest to withdraw his Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword.
This Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword was advanced to the ranks of grade three spirit weapon with the remaining materials after he helped Zhang Shou Yong advance the spirit weapon gourd to the ranks of grade four.
Now, the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword’s outward appearance was no different than before, yet there were strands of a violet colored sheen moving rhythmically on the surroundings of the sword, and they were numerous violet colored little snakes that were unwilling to leave the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword.
After Feng Tian Wu received the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword, she impatiently poured her Origin Energy into the sword.
Whoosh!
Instantly, the energy of heaven and earth roiled above Feng Tian Wu, and it first condensed into 10 ancient horned dragon silhouettes before condensing another 7 ancient horned dragon silhouettes.
The latter were obviously from the amplification of the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword.
"Seven… Seventy percent? An amplification of 70%?!" As she looked at the 17 ancient horned dragon silhouettes above her, Feng Tian Wu’s beautiful face was covered in shock, and she slightly lost her composure.
Her pair of eyes that were like autumn water were even suffused with strands of disbelief.
"An amplification of 70%?!" Meanwhile, Feng Wu Dao who sat nearby, Elder Kong, and Grandma Xu were stunned as well.
Especially Feng Wu Dao.
Although he’d already discerned that the sword Duan Ling Tian used was a grade three spirit sword when Duan Ling Tian fought today, he thought it was an ordinary grade three spirit sword.
In the Darkhan Dynasty, an ordinary grade three spirit sword was already shocking.
Never had he imagined that the grade three spirit sword in Duan Ling Tian’s possession was actually a grade three spirit sword that was at the top grade amongst the top grade… How many grade three spirit swords that provided an amplification of 70% existed in this world?
"Big Brother Duan… Where did you obtain this grade three spirit sword?" Feng Tian Wu was shocked to the point the hand she held the sword with trembled.
"If I said that I refined it myself, would you believe me?" Duan Ling Tian smiled as he asked.
At this moment, he seemed as if he entirely didn’t notice the slightly dumbstruck gazes of Feng Wu Dao, Elder Kong, and Grandma Xu.
"Big Brother Duan… Is what you said true? This was really refined by you?" Although Feng Tian Wu felt it was unbelievable, she understood Duan Ling Tian’s character and knew he wouldn’t talk nonsense.
"I guarantee!" Duan Ling Tian shrugged and lightly smiled.
