Chapter 804: Chapter 634: End? Begin?_2
Outside the great hall ca the sound of footsteps. After Saito Tsuyoshi and his companion gave a brief introduction, they returned here.
Compared to calming the Sword Pavilion disciples, clearly the future of the entire clan was more worth discussing.
“We discovered so terrifying things down there…”
Sword Master Funiu sighed and briefly recounted his and Roger’s experiences in the Different Space.
When the Silver Dragon was ntioned, everyone’s faces turned pale with shock.
“What are we waiting for?”
Miyanori Chiyoko suddenly stood up, “Inform all clan mbers, we must set out and leave here imdiately!”
Saito Tsuyoshi and his companion showed a bit of hesitation on their faces but seemingly supported Miyanori Chiyoko’s suggestion. However, for a long ti, her words received no response from Sword Master Funiu.
“Kitagawa…” Miyanori Chiyoko asked softly.
“You all go, take the clan and leave here.”
“I must stay.”
Sword Master Funiu said resolutely.
“Are you crazy?”
Miyanori Chiyoko slamd the table fiercely, glaring fiercely at Sword Master Funiu.
“What are you planning to do?”
“Stay and stall for us?”
“Doing so is aningless other than seeking death!”
Roger also looked at Sword Master Funiu in surprise, as he saw in the Different Space the determination of Sword Master Funiu to leave.
“The Onmyoji Array here still needs soone to maintain it. If everyone leaves, it won’t be long before the cities below are engulfed by evil forces.”
“If we leave, all those ordinary people will die!”
“Additionally, I am the Sword Master, the biggest target they seek. So people will not be content until they see .”
“So I should stay.”
Sword Master Funiu pursed his lips slightly, having made up his mind.
Unexpectedly, Miyanori Chiyoko did not attempt to persuade him in any form; instead, her expression relaxed, and she took a step back to sit in a chair.
“I will stay too.”
“Us too!” Two voices echoed at the sa ti.
It was Saito Tsuyoshi and Ishida Minami.
“If you all stay, what will happen to the other clan mbers?” Sword Master Funiu sighed, “The Atlas bloodline needs to be passed on…”
“Passed on for what?” Saito Tsuyoshi suddenly interrupted Sword Master Funiu.
“We have borne too much, it’s ti to let it go.”
“Is there really an unending bloodline in this world?”
He chuckled self-deprecatingly.
“You say to flee, but in Everworld, where can we go?”
“To find new land, start a new cycle of farming and hibernation?”
“That’s too long.”
Saito Tsuyoshi shook his head, and sitting beside him, Ishida Minami also spoke.
“Kitagawa, we are all too tired; for the sake of legacy, we have given up so much.”
“It’s ti to end it.”
“Let everything end here.”
This usually quiet man straightened his back.
“At least with the identity of the Atlas bloodline.”
A deep fatigue flashed in Sword Master Funiu’s eyes too.
Indeed, after revealing their identities, where can they go?
Leave the Everworld and return to the present world?
But if everyone leaves here, it would an abandoning all the ordinary people reliant on the Sword Pavilion’s influence.
The city would be destroyed, and its inhabitants would be attacked by monsters.
Even if they returned to reality, where would they go?
Stay at Sunrise or return to the Western World?
Fearfully, neither place has a refuge for them.
“Haha!”
“Then let’s stay together, we’ve been fleeing and hiding for hundreds of years; it’s ti to end it.”
Facing life and death, Sword Master Funiu beca calm after understanding everything.
At that mont, the Onmyoji Array at the top of Qinglu Mountain trembled. Sword Master Funiu opened his hands, gathering the bloodlines from all directions into the great hall with the power of the Onmyoji Array.
In the swirling bloodline power, Roger saw the faces of the deceased.
So unique marks were erased, and finally, Sword Master Funiu produced an extrely pure pale fla in his hand.
It was the bloodline power of the Atlas Great Bear.
With hands closed, the pure pale fla gathered and shrank, forming into a sphere, the energy restrained, becoming indistinguishable from an ordinary object.
He handed the sphere to Roger, “This is the bloodline of the Atlas Great Bear, it can completely transform an ordinary person into a descendant with the Atlas bloodline.”
A small pearl-like object, seeming to weigh a thousand pounds.
For it was ford by the condensation of nurous lives.
“Friend from the West, choose a suitable inheritor for us, don’t see it as a burden.”
“Think of it as a seed sown at will. If it can take root and sprout, great, if not, there should be no regret.”
“For this is our fate.”
Roger felt so special transformation appearing on Sword Master Funiu’s body.
Due to the attribute of energy, even after special thods of Transformation, there was no true Sword Master level expert born in the Sword Pavilion.
But now, Roger sensed signs of Sword Master Funiu nearing the Extre Path.
Only by letting go of all burdens can one embark on the path of true self.
If ti permits, it won’t take long for a new Extre Path Sword Master to erge on Qinglu Mountain!
Holding the sphere in his palm, Roger raised his head, “I will, I will find the most suitable master for him.”
Deep inside, Roger had already identified the ideal candidate for this item.
But he didn’t plan to tell anyone that Yuan Guanghai was still alive.
Since the mont of death, Yuan Guanghai’s ties with Qinglu Mountain had been severed; he needed not mories, but a fresh start.
“All I can do now is wish you all the best.”
Roger sighed.
Sword Master Funiu choosing to stay for ordinary people surprised Roger, yet he understood and supported Sword Master Funiu’s decision.
Compared to hundreds of years ago, they were no longer fugitives; stripped of their bloodline powers, they were no different from ordinary cultivators.
The Sword Pavilion was their kingdom, and the city dwellers were their people; it had beco their ho.
As for the so-called Western World, it was just an unfamiliar symbol.
The scenery atop Qinglu Mountain remained unchanged, the sunset’s glow coating the buildings on the mountain in a red hue. Around the collapsing structures, everything was recovering in order. But these ordinary disciples didn’t know that soon, a storm would strike.
Under the watchful eyes of the four, Roger slowly walked down the mountain. He walked slowly because Roger knew he might never again tread upon this land.
Even if he could return, it would no longer be the Qinglu Mountain he once visited.
“Roger…”
Miyanori Chiyoko’s voice ca from afar.
“Your power changed my view of you, and I apologize for what I’ve done before.”
Roger didn’t turn around, just waved indifferently.
He didn’t feel pleased because it wasn’t Miyanori Chiyoko who changed, it was himself.
He won everything with power.
Slowly, the scenery faded behind him, until the sun set, and the world turned dim. Entering the city at the mountain’s foot, Roger saw the long-lost calm.
These ordinary people didn’t know what happened atop the mountain, Roger even saw so families sending their daughters up the mountain, enjoying the flattery and envy from neighbors.
“Next up will be Yatagarasu Akiryu.”
He gazed into a certain direction in the night sky.
In his mind, the fusion around the Alder Sword Seal continued, every mont his power grew.
The road ahead beca clearer.
“Soon, the last step isn’t far!”
With a thought, Roger vanished into the shadows.
As Roger left, on top of Hankawa, in the cold cave, a majestic figure slowly opened its eyes.
“I, Yatagarasu Akiryu, have finally beco a Sword Master!”
A youthful face flashed in his mind, Yatagarasu Akiryu let out a sinister smile.
“Heh heh, Roger…”
