WAR EMPEROR
Chapter 6 - The Intentions of the Killer Sword
"Swords' Degree ?" Xiao Yuan read the stone and looked puzzled, "Self-control and dispel any doubt in the Martial's heart."
Xiao Yuan felt something in his heart that was starting to get excited, after reading the writing in the rock. Somehow he felt an interest in the Sword Technique.
Slowly he walked forward and stood in front of the Rusty Sword. Xiao Yuan did not know what Level of Artifact this Rusty Sword was, but he was sure that this Sword was not as simple as it seemed.
Xiao Yuan unsheathed the Rusty Sword and felt a huge Energy Wave enter him. His soul suffered a great shock and his energy continued to be absorbed by the Rusty Sword.
"Argh..." Xiao Yuan started screaming in pain but he could not release the Rusty Sword in his arms.
Streams of Lightning began to appear around the Rusty Sword and Xiao Yuan felt a tremendous Pressure on his Soul. It was as if he had seen the appearance of hundreds of Souls residing within the Rusty Sword.
This signified that this Rusting Sword had already taken many lives until now, even its fierceness was still etched very clearly to this day.
The lightning started to enter Xiao Yuan's body and the pain he felt was much heavier, his Qi was as if it was churning and raging within his body.
Outside of this secret place the clear sky turned dark with terrifying lightning, all the Cultivators looked up at the sky and thought that this was an incredible phenomenon.
They thought that if there was a Master around Xuan Kingdom, almost the entire Kingdom was covered in Black Clouds and thunderous Lightning.
"It's incredible that if there was a great Cultivator who was in Xuan Kingdom, this kind of power might already be at the Third Layer Peak Origin Level." An Old Man with a First Layer Creation Level cultivation stood gallantly before his bedroom door.
The man was named Liu Zhi and was the current Heaven Sect Master. Liu Zhi was one of the strongest people in Xuan Empire besides the other two.
Other than the Royal Noble Ancestor Xuan Dong Bai and the Xuan Empire Alchemy Pavilion that was Master Gang Wei, Liu Zhi was the main force that the Xuan Empire possessed.
The three of them were the strongest people in the entire Xuan Empire and held important positions, their strength was equal and were at the first Layer Creation Level.
....
Xiao Yuan felt his blood boiling and his strength much stronger, his consciousness slowly began to fade and several images appeared on his head.
The thunderous sound of Lightning rang out very loudly and Xiao Yuan looked towards the source. Xiao Yuan looked back at the Sword struck by the thousands of Lightning and this made him very surprised.
"Is this a Rusty Sword. lest this Sword be a very powerful and dangerous Artifact." Xiao Yuan muttered softly and looked at the majesty of the Sword.
The sword looked even better at the moment with blue and black on its sides. The aura released was much more ferocious and Xiao Yuan felt a strong Sword Intent.
The sword started to buzz and made Xiao Yuan retreat a few steps back, now he understood one very important thing.
He used to read books about Artifacts and Cultivators in his Family. Even though he was just spending time bored, Xiao Yuan still remembered all the knowledge he had read.
Every High-Level Artifact maker made their Artifacts wholeheartedly. The sword in front of him this time was made perfectly and had its own feelings.
Xiao Yuan only realized that the true purpose of this Sword was to test the wearer's worthiness. Xiao Yuan had already picked it up and this Sword was testing whether he was worthy of wielding a Sword this strong.
"If having you can make me reach my goal within the peak of Martial Dao then I will accept all the trials you give me. Retreating now is useless, the stronger the Aura you emit the more I will want to have you. Be a part of my strength and let's see what kind of scenery is out there !" Xiao Yuan smiled and step by step he advanced forward.
A powerful lightning bolt grabbed Xiao Yuan and a cry of pain rang out very loudly, The lightning continued to enter his body and enter his dantian.
The Golden Roots within Xiao Yuan's body began to absorb that Lightning and grew to become much stronger. The pain that Xiao Yuan felt began to dissipate and the Lightning began to fuse with his Spiritual Root.
Xiao Yuan's aura became stronger and in one move he had already broken through the Bone Forging Level. Xiao Yuan spewed out a large amount of black liquid, that black liquid was all the impurities present in his body.
Any Cultivator who broke through the Rankings would definitely experience the same thing. Their bodies would be vastly strengthened and all sorts of diseases lodged in their bodies would be forcefully expelled.
Xiao Yuan sat on the ground and placed the Sword beside him. As soon as he rested his body first and started cultivating, he had to stabilize himself first before continuing his journey to find a way out.
Perhaps there will be danger waiting for him and he must be prepared with all the worst possibilities. To get out of this place must not be simple, given the existence of the powerful Sword Artifact that now belonged to him.
