Chapter 2601: Six Divine Sword

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With the Heavenly Flute leading the way and the connection between Bai Qing’er and Ji Fanxin, they soon arrived at the place where the Divine Artifact and the Canon of Origin were hidden.

It was different from what Zhang Ruochen had imagined. He had thought the place containing the Canon of Origin would be sacred and flawless.

However, this place was extraordinary.

The entire world was dark red. Standing by a cliff, they looked around. There were mountains like Blood Dragons under their feet. The Black Qi in the mountains turned into mist. The color of the soil seemed to be formed by blood.

They could see far away because a blood moon was hanging in the center of heaven.

There were countless islands-like megalithic floating under the blood moon.

This place did not look like a sacred place. It was like a demonic land or an evil cave.

The air was filled with an ancient aura. The precepts of heaven and earth were totally different from the outside. Even Bai Qing’er, the strong who looked down on the world, had a dignified expression on her face.

They sat on the back of the Intergold Tiger and flew directly towards the area below the blood moon.

Finally, they stopped on a Floating Megalithic Island, which was more than 500 meters long.

Ji Fanxin found a rusty sword piece on the ground.

The Supreme Inscription on the sword piece flashed faintly. It probably had once been a part of a Supreme Artifact.

However, the sword piece turned into mud with a light touch.

This made their hearts heavy.

Zhang Ruochen looked up and stared at the Blood Moon. He felt a familiar aura. It was the same source as the Blood Lake on the top of the Altar of Megalithic.

It made people feel danger, mystery, and fear.

“What do you think is the connection between the Blood Moon and the Blood Lake that trapped the Sword Island?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

The light of the Blood Moon shone on Bai Qing’er’s fair face and was stained with a strange light. She said, “I think the Blood Moon is the Blood Lake.”

“What did you say?” Zhang Ruochen was shocked.

He had never thought of this.

Ji Fanxin said, “I have the same feeling. The two auras are too similar.”

“We are probably right below the Blood Lake now,” Bai Qing’er said.

Zhang Ruochen used the Heart of Truth to sense carefully. Gradually, he agreed with them. It was simply incredible.

The moonlight from the Blood Moon turned into mist and fell down.

The strands of blood mist entangled the ancient swords like chains and waterfalls.

A total of six swords were suspended directly below the blood moon.

The six swords were not only entangled by the blood mist but also locked by strands of black mist that surged up from underground. The two confining power made them float there and unable to fly away.

Each sword was rusted, riddled with holes, and brown.

The blade of the sword that had corroded the most had been completely corroded. The hilt had lost its outline and looked like a thin, rusty stick.

“This is a Divine Artifact?”

Zhang Ruochen was surprised. The Divine Artifacts were made of unique materials and protected by Divine Inscriptions. By right, they should have been immortal throughout the ages.

However, he couldn’t find any other vessels after searching everywhere.

The Heavenly Flute in Ji Fanxin’s hand made a pleasant sound.

The sound waves rippled through space. It surged toward the six swords trapped by the Black Qi and blood mist, awakening their sword spirits.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The brilliant divine light radiated from the six swords one after another.

Accompanied by ear-piercing sword chimes.

The six rotten ancient swords seemed to have turned into six suns. The light was dazzling, and the temperature was so high. Even Zhang Ruochen, who had a demigod body, felt burning pain. It was as if he was in a sea of divine flames and like standing close to the surface of Stellar.

Strange voices came from the six swords.

“Heavenly Flute, why did you wake us up?”

“Are you stupid? Can’t you see there are three other creatures besides the

Heavenly Flute!”

“Really? Let me take a closer look. Eh! They aren’t the creatures of the Fane of

Origin. They are outsiders.”

“Is the altar finally been opened? Is the Fane of Origin reappeared in this world?” An ecstatic voice was heard.

An excited voice came from the sword that had been corroded the most,

“Brothers, we can finally leave!”

Six different voices rang out one after another. They were all excited.

Zhang Ruochen was moved. ‘It really was Six Divine Sword,’ he thought. But why were they floating here? And what about the Six Divine Sword on the Sword Island in the center of the Blood Lake?

This Six Divine Sword had the same aura as Lord Ming’s Stellar Sword.

Moreover, the Seven Shaft Spirit Sword in Zhang Ruochen’s sea of Qi started throbbing. It was even more robust than when he’d encountered the Six Divine Sword on Sword Island.

Just as Zhang Ruochen was thinking, the Heavenly Flute had already communicated with the sword spirits of the Six Divine Sword. It said it had chosen its master. At the same time, it hoped they would also decide on Ji Fanxin as their master.

The sword spirits of the Six Divine Sword didn’t show respect to Heavenly Flute after inspecting Ji Fanxin.

“No, this woman is too weak. She’s not qualified to be our master.”

“Eldest brother is right. We are Six Divine Sword. Our master must be at least a Sword God.”

“A Sword God is the lowest standard. There’s no need to consider the Saint

Realm at all.”

“It’s fine if she’s at the Saint Realm, but her attainments in Swordsmanship are too poor. I won’t acknowledge her as my master even if I’m trapped here and completely corroded.”

“She won’t be able to hold me even if I acknowledge her as my master. I’m too

heavy!”

Ji Fanxin was not disappointed at all. She was very calm. She did not pin her hope on getting approval from the Six Divine Sword.

The words of the Six Divine Sword spirits made Bai Qing’er and Zhang

Ruochen, who were full of confidence, frown.

Is Sword God the lowest standard?

It was hard for a Divine Artifact to acknowledge its master.

As a master of the Origin, Bai Qing’er could learn everything at once. Although she had never learned Swordsmanship, her attainments in Swordsmanship were not low.

She stretched out her slender arm and released the Precepts of Swordsmanship. A three-foot-long sword condensed in her hand.

Swish! Swish!

Her graceful body flew up. The Sword Qi filled the sky and followed her. She danced a set of mysterious and peerless sword techniques.

The sword followed her mind. She was one with the sword, and her sense of the sword was clear.

She was like a sword fairy. Her sword moves and techniques were exquisite. Even Zhang Ruochen, who had practiced Swordsmanship, was amazed.

The graceful person withdrew her sword after the sword dance.

Bai Qing’er stood straight and stared proudly at the Six Divine Sword in the distance. She said, “I will break through the realm and become a god soon. What do you think of my attainments in Swordsmanship? Do you think I am qualified to be your master?”

“That’s great, that’s great. Your talent is extremely high. Your future will be limitless once you become a god. Unfortunately, your attainments in Swordsmanship are too poor.”

“That’s right. I also think her attainments in Swordsmanship are still lacking.

They are flashy and unreal. She is unqualified to be our master.”

“What my brothers said makes sense. In the end, Swordsmanship has to be extremely pure to unleash its strongest power. Her sword technique is good, but it’s a pity that her understanding of Swordsmanship is too superficial. She hasn’t even cultivated the Swordsmanship Saintwill. It only has a form and is not a true sword cultivator.”

The Six Divine Sword exchanged words and negating Bai Qing’er’s Swordsmanship to nothing.

Bai Qing’er, who had always been arrogant and did not put the cultivators in the world in her eyes, was very frustrated. She snorted lightly and said, “I’m afraid that even Sword God would not be able to meet your conditions with your standards in choosing the master.”

One of the swords said proudly, “To be honest, Sword God is really nothing compared to our former master.”

Bai Qing’er said, “How many Yuanhui periods have you been here? Your former master has turned into dust long. You have also suffered the corrosion of the blood mist and Black Qi. I’m afraid you will rust into a pile of iron mud if you don’t leave now.”

The Divine Sword that had been corroded until a thin iron rod remained said sorrowfully, “Brothers, she’s right. This corrosive power is too terrifying. You guys might be able to hold on for a few more Yuanhui periods, but I’m really about to be corroded to nothing!”

“I still have some ancient memory fragments. There used to be many swords that were at the level of Supreme Artifacts floating in this place, but they were all corroded into iron mud and destroyed in both body and soul.”

“We must choose a master and leave this place so we can live in this world forever.’

The most complete sword said sternly, “Don’t say such disheartening words. Choosing a Sword God is already lowering the standard. We can’t lower it any further.’

“Eldest brother is right. A Divine Sword has to have the dignity ot a Divine

Sword.”

The sword spirits of the Six Divine Sword started arguing again.

Zhang Ruochen had been listening to their conversation and had learned a lot of helpful information. His inference became clearer.

So, he walked to the edge of the Floating Megalithic Island and looked at them. He raised his voice and said, “The Ancestral Swordmaster has fallen! The current era is no longer your era, and it is no longer the era of the

Swordsmanship.”

The Six Divine Sword stopped arguing.

Then, a stern voice sounded, “Boy, what are you talking about? Swordsmanship is the most powerful way of killing. Even the Path of Origin can’t stop it.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “You are wrong! Swordsmanship was not the way of killing. There were two sides to the sword. One side was to kill all evil in the world, and the other side was to save and protect the good in the world. The sword’s tip represented the will to forge ahead and never stop. The sword is equal and free.”

After a moment of silence.

One of the swords said, “These words… are so familiar. I seem to have heard them somewhere before.’

“Brothers, I think what he said makes sense. Our understanding of the sword is indeed too biased.”

“I can feel the familiar spirit of Swordsmanship in him, just like the remnant memory fragments of our former master.”

“Unfortunately, he’s too weak! His cultivation is too weak. I wouldn’t mind choosing him as my master if he could break through the realm and become a god now.”

“Yes, he’s too weak. I’m so heavy. Can he lift me? He can’t, and I’ll crush him to death. ”

Zhang Ruochen was even more confident in his guess. The former master of the Six Divine Sword must be the Ancestral Swordmaster.

There was no need to guess. The arrangement here must be related to the Hand of Darkness that destroyed the Swordsphere in the past.

The Sword Island in the Blood Lake at the top of the altar was most likely the projection of the Six Divine Sword and the Supreme Artifact. It was illusory and a trap set by the Hand of Darkness.

A trap that even gods couldn’t see through!

The six rotten and broken Divine Sword below the altar were the real ones.

If Zhang Ruochen’s inference was correct, the Ancestral Swordmaster didn’t take the Six Divine Sword because he estimated the Hand of Darkness would use the Six Divine Sword to set a trap to lure him out.

The Hand of Darkness could kill 3,000 Sword Gods in one strike and destroy a mighty great world, but it couldn’t kill the Ancestral Swordmaster.

So, the Ancestral Swordmaster’s cultivation must have been extraordinary. He could avoid the Hand of Darkness’s search and escape from it..
