Chapter 381
Very soon, Arthur to the long mountain range . The security was as tight as the Mirage Era Hall sect, however, he wasn’t worried as he continued traveling underground .
He didn’t know where exactly Cold Sword could be so he decided to search for a unique mountain where the density of Nether Energy is higher than the rest . She’s the top disciple here and she seed to be the lonely type so if she’s not adventuring in the outside world, she must be ticulously training atop her mountain .
Unlike the Mirage Era Hall Sect, the Mountain Ba Sword sect had a larger territory but lesser disciples . Though, all disciples seed to be decently strong and were all sword-users .
Arthur had long since noticed a central mountain where its peak pierced the clouds yet he didn’t approach it . It must be an important place of the sect and he didn’t co here to stir trouble .
"I heard that Cold Sword is going to venture inside the dragon’s lair that’s about to open soon . "
Two disciples were mumbling to each other with a low voice . They were careful as to not let anybody hear them albeit being in a very remote place .
Unfortunately, Arthur was just a couple of ters under their feet and he could perfectly hear them .
"No way, I heard she’s stuck in an important bottleneck and hasn’t co out of seclusion since last year . "
The two kept talking for a while but most of what said seed to be rumors . Arthur carefully listened and only departed when the topic was switched .
Many deadly sword formations were laid around the mountain range, however, they weren’t able to affect Arthur, who easily avoided them using his eye’s ability .
As the sect’s territory was considerably big, Arthur spent half a day searching one mountain after another until he found his target .
Jian Si’s mountain was actually in a secluded area, almost outside of the sect’s territory . The mountain stood alone as its peak was extrely high and the fog around it barred the view of the top .
After making sure no one here except for Jian Si, Arthur cautiously made his way toward her peak . There was no sword formation the mountain so he advanced unhindered .
The girl was silently swinging her sword at the top of the mountain . It was a simple movent yet very efficient . In fact, her sword essence resembled Arthur’s . It lacked the dark flas or the ominous aura of the Dark Magic but it still emitted a dangerous pressure, ruthless and full of thick murderous aura .
Her appearance matured since the last ti they t . Her dark hair beca much longer and she grew a bit taller though her face was a cold and expressionless as ever .
Moreover, she already beca a 5th Grade God, which is a very good achievent . She was even stronger than Shu Ru, in terms of cultivation, that is .
If the two girls were to fight, no one would know who would co out victorious . Shu Ru may have a lower cultivation but her Physique can allow her to leapfrog a few grades .
As an experienced killer, Jian Si had a very sensitive Godly Sense and very high awareness but she wasn’t able to discover Arthur .
Only when a strange rat appeared next to him did she react . Her swinging sword hastily changed direction and went straight at the rat .
Though it was a rat, the feeling she got from it was familiar yet dangerous so she attacked without hesitation .
Unfortunately, her attack was easily blocked as the rat vanished and was replaced by a tall silver-haired man who held her sword with two fingers .
"Still hot-blooded . "
The girl withdrew her sword and snorted, clearly angry to see her attack fail so miserably . She stared at Arthur and noticed a few changes, for example, the absence of the chains and the scar on his eye .
’He seems to be way stronger than before . ’
Though their exchange was short, just from looking at him, Jian Si knew Arthur was several tis stronger than five years ago .
"So you finally rembered that you have a student?"
While shrugging, Arthur replied
"I was busy . "
The girl snorted again and resud swinging her sword, totally ignoring Arthur . Since he still had ample free ti, he sat cross-legged a distance away from her and entered ditation .
***
It has been exactly one month since Lucy started training under Losha . Her cultivation was sealed so that she doesn’t advance quickly and ruin herself, or so said her master .
She still wasn’t able to create the 6th lotus, however, her control over the Pure Yin Physique significantly increased . She was able to unleash 60% of its power . Furthermore, Losha bestowed her a powerful movent technique perfectly compatible with her .
This movent technique was extrely hard to learn but granted her many benefits . Her soft white saber also received an upgrade and beca more powerful and suited for a Sovereign .
It beca shorter but sharper, plus, Lucy was given yet another technique . This technique was actually Saber Arts .
It is called The Dancing Fla Saber Arts and the requirents to learn it are very steep . In fact, Even after training for a whole month, coupled with her talent, Lucy was only able to reach minor success in it .
Nonetheless, it suited her magma and fire attributes and greatly strengthened them . Her arsenal grew bigger and she was getting stronger by the day .
Losha, who was in her workshop, busy fixing Makaze, was sweating profusely as the temperature of the room was extrely high, moreover, she was ntally and physically tired .
To fix Makaze was no easy feat, in fact, it was much harder than she expected . Fortunately, she had the necessary materials to repair it but the energy needed was humongous, to say the least .
Losha thought it’ll take her a week at most but even after one month, she was still not over .
’I’m finally done with this damn blade!’
She was almost done repairing the silent blade, which started acting strange since yesterday . Its sheath was releasing an absurd amount of black flas while Makaze was vibrating intensely as it emanated a strange and ominous dark fog that was forcefully repelled by Losha .
Even soone as strong as her, was starting feeling anxious after feeling the rising pressure of the Dark Blade . She even hesitated a few tis and wanted to stop repairing it . Once the final touch is done, she feared sothing will happen, not her but to the workshop and the whole floating mountain .
The blade was getting restless and a fourth of the workshop was started to get corrupted by the spreading Dark Magic .
The blacksmith’s body turned into a diamond, shining as she pressed her hand on the dark blade and banged her hamr on its sharp edges .
Ti slowly passed but to Losha’s surprise, the hand that was holding down the blade beca bloodied and jet black . The darkness inside the diamond was dreadful and wanted to spread to all her body .
Formless Nether Energy appeared from her Dantian to her hand, pushing out the Dark Magic . The process was incredibly slow, startling Losha .
’Just what the hell is this blade?’
Even a Cursed Sword wouldn’t make her anxious like this . The combination of the blade and Dark Magic was simply too dangerous . It bypassed her Physique and even injured her just by touching it .
She couldn’t even imagine what it’ll do if it was wielded by Arthur . The hamr kept banging on the blade for a few more hours before finally stopping .
No more a broken blade, Makaze emitted a loud howl that reverberated to all directions, startling Lucy and Losha . The surroundings of the floating mountain turned into absolute darkness, blocking everyone’s view .
In a split second, Losha’s world was replaced by encroaching darkness that made soone like her helpless .
"What’s going on?"
"You did a good job . "
A cold voice rang in her ears . Just as the voice was heard, the darkness vanished and everything returned to normal . The usually composed Losha was dumbstruck, she even forgot to breathe as she stared at the person standing in front of her .
Her eyes contained shock and fear, even a reincarnator like herself couldn’t lift a finger in front of the person in front of her .
He was clad in jet black armor and had a thick black sword on his back . A skin as white as snow and two jet black pupils, even his hair was completely dark . He was the epito of strength, the most powerful existence in the three universes, the Naless Knight .
The woman didn’t even dare speak, soone of her status obviously knew the Naless Knight . Not only she knew him, she knew what he’s capable of . .
Though she had a Fate Contract with Arthur, she wasn’t courageous enough to stop the knight from taking Makaze, if he wished to do so .
Soone like him could finish her before she could make a move, the disparity was just too big . She’s feared by many and even Overgods don’t dare to anger her yet in this multiverse, none dares to talk back or provoke the Naless Knight . Whatever he wants, he gets, fortunately, he usually disappears for a long ti, whenever he appears, everyone becos docile .
The strong factions or powerful individuals beco obedient like children, like ’X’, for example .
"A favor must be paid back . Just like he gave my blade, I shall hand him his . "
The Naless Knight uttered those words before grabbing Makaze, which wanted to rebel and attack this man only to beco motionless, unable to resist the hand that was grabbing it .
Just like he appeared, the knight vanished without leaving trace, leaving a pale-faced Losha, who fell on her butt as her knees grew weak .
