Chapter 42 The Sword Master
At the bottom of the deep pool, it seemed that in the eternal darkness, a hazy golden light quietly emerged from the mud.
The fish and shrimps at the bottom of the pond gathered together, as if they were extremely curious, and kept wandering around the golden light.
Suddenly, a small vortex that was inaccurate slowly formed and gradually expanded under the mud. In a moment, the surrounding mud rolled and was completely swept away by the vortex.
The vortex seemed to have huge suction force. Before the fish, shrimps and underwater creatures could turn around and escape, they were all pulled by the powerful suction force and quietly sank into the vortex.
In the middle of the vortex, a young man with his eyes closed was vaguely visible. He seemed to have no idea about all this.
"I have fully activated the power of the Spirit-Surveying Pearl, and I'll look at you next." In the dantian, Jian Jiu looked at Xie Chen sideways, with a faint look of worry.
Originally, there was not much danger in fusion of the Spirit-Shocking Pearl. However, this time Xie Chen's original aura was weak and his soul was also damaged. If he wanted to fusion of the Spirit-Shocking Pearl, the danger would increase several times out of thin air. Once his mind was not firm, there would be danger of both physical and spiritual destruction.
Xie Chen nodded, stared at the constantly rotating spirit-catching beads, and said in a deep voice: "I just need to use the power of my soul to make it consistent with the rotation direction of the spiritual vortex, is it enough?"
"Yes, as long as the spirit-capturing bead is synchronized with your spiritual vortex, I will guide him to integrate into the Dragon Slaying Sword outside."
"Okay." Xie Chen stopped talking, his soul condensed slightly, and he stepped into the rotating spirit-catching bead in one step!
"Boom!" Just as the soul stepped into the Spirit-Surfing Bead, Xie Chen seemed to hear countless rolling thunders exploding beside him. Looking up, in this constantly rotating space, spiritual power was extremely full, like a few thick fog that was about to drip water! As the Spirit-Surfing Bead continued to rotate, the spiritual power from the outside was also constantly pouring inward, turning into pure spiritual power, and then rotating.
Through soul sensing, Xie Chen discovered that the direction of the rotation of his spiritual energy vortex is exactly the opposite of the rotation of the Spirit-Shocking Bead. This is also the reason why the Spirit-Shocking Bead is constantly absorbing his spiritual power.
"Since that's the case, I'll let you stop first!"
Xie Chen did not hesitate anymore, and his soul moved, and his whole body was like a swimming fish going upstream, leaping out in the opposite direction along the edge of the spirit-catching bead!
It is already very difficult to sail against the current, not to mention that the spiritual power in the spirit-catching bead is so surging. Now Xie Chen is more like a sailboat raising a sail and heading against the wind, facing the spiritual power storm that whistles like a blade, keeping moving forward!
If someone could see Xie Chen's body at this moment, he would find that Xie Chen's face had become like a dead person, without any blood. Beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down their foreheads like broken pearls.
In a blink of an eye, his whole body was completely wet! After a moment, he could even vaguely seep blood from his skin pores! What Xie Chen had endured now was almost reaching the limit of the human body!
The pain suffered by the soul has long exceeded the body. The oncoming spiritual power is like a sharp dagger, piercing through the front of the soul and passing through the body! The pain of thousands of swords and holes is even a hero who can't help but scream, not to mention that it is not the body, but the soul!
In the countercurrent, Xie Chen's teeth seemed to have been bitten, and his nails were deeply trapped in the skin of his palms! There was a voice in his heart that kept roaring!
"I have even skipped the sea of fire! I can survive the pain of the burning flames! Why not be afraid of your blade! Just against the current, I can't stop my steps at all! Those who go against the human beings are the king of human beings. Those who go against the heavens are the heavens!"
Time passes slowly. Xie Chen is like an eternal stubborn stone, moving forward firmly in the torrent!
Every time he took a step forward, a trace of blood oozed out of the pores of the outside body. Later, the blood had completely dyed the surrounding mud into a dark red color, and the deep bottom of the pool was in full bloom.
Ten days have passed, and the rotation speed of the spirit-catching bead has been significantly slower, while Xie Chen still supported his soul to move forward mechanically with a will.
Even himself did not realize that the weak soul, which was originally translucent, had become extremely solid at this moment. Even more powerful than before his soul was damaged.
On the twelfth day, the rotation of the spirit-catching bead finally stopped. At this moment, Xie Chen's speed suddenly soared! He was like a swimming fish suddenly active in the quiet pool water, moving forward rapidly in the ocean of spiritual power like an arrow!
On the thirteenth day, the stopped spirit-catching bead finally began to rotate slowly under the guidance of spiritual power. However, this time the rotation was the same as the spiritual vortex below!
The sailboat that was heading against the wind finally sailed out of a storm and a smooth sailing! Now Xie Chen is like a dragon rolling up terrifying waves in the sea, riding the wind and waves like a bamboo shoot!
The originally cruel spiritual power of the sword has now become extremely docile in Xie Chen's feelings. Xie Chen finally turned from a rebel who struggled to survive against the current and turned into a leading man to lead the trend!
For thirteen days, Jian Jiu's eyes had never moved away from Xie Chen's body. It was not until this time that he let out a long breath and a hint of relief appeared on his face.
"Master Sword Master, after this, I believe you will have a lot of insights? Life is like this countercurrent. If you don't fight, you will follow the trend until you die. But if you can really break through this countercurrent, you will see that all the original adversities will surrender under your feet and even become your help! Only in this way can you make me willingly call you "The Master of Sword..."
On the fifteenth day, the spirit-seeking bead was already spinning faster and faster under the guidance of Xie Chen! The spiritual vortex below was also constantly accelerating and rotating with the spirit-seeking bead, and the two had almost begun to synchronize!
At the same time, Jian Jiu had already begun to act. His figure had already appeared next to the dragon-slaying sword floating above the sky, his eyes were like an eagle and falcon, staring at the spirit-capturing beads and spiritual vortexes.
Boom! A loud loud sound rang in Xie Chen's dantian without any warning! The huge spiritual power in the spirit-capturing bead seemed to be pulled by a huge force, and it shot out from the bottom, hitting hard in the center of the spiritual vortex!
Endless spiritual power instantly filled the entire dantian. Under the guidance of the spiritual vortex, these spiritual powers began to rotate! The two were synchronized! The power of the spirit capture was completely reversed!
"Enter the spirit, merge!" Jian Jiu shouted in his throat! His palm slapped on the hilt of the Dragon Slaying Sword. The dragon Slaying Sword suddenly sank, and in a moment it turned into a dark golden lightning, rushing into the spirit-catching bead!
"Buzz--!" The dark golden light and the blue-white light of the Spirit-Shocking Pearl instantly shine together. The ancient long sword was like a sea-stabilizing needle, inserted directly into the center of the Spirit-Shocking Pearl, and remained motionless in the rapid rotation of spiritual power!
"Master Sword Master! Take advantage of the present and guide the spirit beads into the incomplete part of the back of the knife!" Jian Jiu's voice instantly rang in Xie Chen's ears.
The abnormal movement just now had already attracted Xie Chen's attention, and at this moment he did not hesitate, his soul moved!
"Wow!" The spiritual power frenzy that had been tamed by Xie Chen instantly rolled up with Xie Chen's soul! Under Xie Chen's guidance, he rushed straight to the almost undetectable crack on the back of the Dragon Slaying Sword!
A huge spiritual power surged in instantly, as if awakening the spiritual intelligence of the Dragon Slaying Sword. The entire blade suddenly emitted a refreshing buzz! And the crack was like a giant whale sucking water, sucking all the spiritual power that came into the blade.
At this moment, Xie Chen had already stopped rotating, and his soul jumped out of the Spirit-Surveying Pearl, quietly watching the fusion of the soul-Surveying Pearl.
When the spiritual power inside the Spirit Pearl almost completely entered the Dragon Slaying Sword, Xie Chen suddenly thought and raised his hand and swung it out!
"Boom!" The spirit-capturing bead that had lost its spiritual power shattered and instantly turned into stars!
This is the last and most critical step, using the power of the spirit-catching bead to seal the cracks on the blade!
In the dantian, the full spiritual power seemed to instantly turn into countless big hands. Under Xie Chen's control, these big hands guided the spirit-catching bead fragments to gather in the air, and then suddenly pressed down!
"Buzz--!" The entire Dantian space shook violently! The dragon-slaying sword body instantly let out a loud sound of sword!
After a moment, the smoke disappeared. The huge vortex of spiritual energy continued to rotate, constantly pulling the spiritual power in the dantian into the vortex, and the dragon-slaying sword quietly hangs in the air. Everything seemed to have never happened.
However, Xie Chen could clearly feel that the Dragon Slaying Sword is more in line with him now, and he could even feel the subtle emotional fluctuations on the Dragon Slaying Sword. The original cold light on the crack on the back of the knife confirmed everything that had just happened.
"Congratulations to Lord Sword Master, now that you have the power of the Spirit Pearl to seal the seal, you no longer have to worry about the leakage of spiritual power before reaching the Spirit King." Jian Jiuyi was abnormal and had a respectful attitude.
"Master Sword?" Xie Chen looked at Jian Jiu, full of doubts.
Jian Jiu smiled slightly, "Master Sword Master is now in touch with the Dragon Slaying Sword, so Jian Jiu will naturally call you the Master of Swords."
"Didn't it be until now that the Dragon Slaying Sword think I am qualified to control it?" Xie Chen glanced at the Dragon Slaying Sword in the distance, and with a thought, the Dragon Slaying Sword flew into his hand, extremely docile.
"The Dragon Slaying Sword is part of the peerless divine weapon, and the conditions for choosing the master are naturally extremely harsh. Even if it is your natal spirit, if you cannot meet its standards, it will still leave you. Fortunately, after this, the Dragon Slaying Sword has recognized you as the sword master."
Hearing Jian Jiu's words, Xie Chen's heart moved, gently stroked the dragon-slaying sword in his hand, and said lightly: "Since that's the case, then tell me about the fate of the Sword Master."
"Okay." This time, Jian Jiu did not hesitate, but nodded directly and said, "The Sword Master must have heard that the predecessor of the Dragon Slaying Sword was the Black Iron Heavy Sword. The Black Iron Heavy Sword was divided into two and created two divine weapons. One is the Dragon Slaying Sword and the other is the Yitian Sword."
"Black Iron Heavy Sword?"
"Yes, the Xuan Iron Heavy Sword was originally an object outside the sky. The name of the Nine Swords was caused by the sword. The heavy sword contained two powerful forces, Dragon Soul and Heavenly Way. After being separated, the Dragon Slaying Sword and the Heavenly Sword each occupied one, and the spirit in the sword was also divided into two, forming two residual souls..."
Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Things of the same origin must be combined into one. This is the law of heaven. If the Lord of Swords falls in the future battle with the Lord of Yitian Swords, then I will disappear with it."
