[Liu Shao]: I heard soone suddenly beca a “Sword Holder”? What’s this Sun True Obscurity Sword? Snap a photo and let take a look?
[Zhu Jun]: Are you feeling okay? Does bearing the Sword Intent of the Sun True Obscurity Sword put a strain on your body?
[Zao La]: How can I co to find you if they still won’t approve it? Wait for , I’ll find an opportunity.
[Chu Kou Cheng Zhang]: Thanks a lot, Captain Yan. The border defense workload for the Pingxi Army will be much lighter from now on. We’ll treat you to a al when you have ti. Also, if Captain Zhou wants to co find you, help stop her, the Huofeng Team still has a lot to do.
[Miaojiang Girl Tang Lingling]: Captain Yan, Captain Yan! They’re all calling you the “Sword Holder” now! I heard you glow when you draw your sword? Does your whole body glow? Do I need to wear sunglasses the next ti I co to play with you? Hahahaha.
[Anna]: I heard you have a sword? Send a photo, show the hilt.
For so reason, Yan Yu felt that Anna was playing so kind of homophonic gag to avoid censorship.
He silently replied to everyone’s ssages when suddenly, he heard a knock on the door.
Who? At this ti, the girls shouldn’t have returned ho yet.
Yan Yu went to open the front door. Unexpectedly, standing outside was i Yingxue, dressed in a Daoist robe.
“Teacher i!” He imdiately broke into a smile, cleared the way, “You’ve co? Have a seat, I’ll make you so tea.”
“No need, no need.” i Yingxue looked embarrassed and awkward being treated so cordially. She was forcibly pulled by Yan Yu to sit on the living room sofa. After taking a sip of tea, she stated her business, “I’d like to see the Sword Intent of the Sun True Obscurity Sword, could you show it to ?”
“Sure!” Yan Yu promptly began to glow all over, and from his hand condensed a brilliantly radiant Flying Sword, the embodint of the energy of the Sun True Obscurity Sword.
i Yingxue stared at the Flying Sword for a long while and sighed:
“Indeed, it’s the Sword Intent of the Sun True Obscurity, but a pity it’s not the original.”
“Hey, I’m asking you!” Yan Yu hurriedly asked in his mind, “Where did Chen Yanwei take your original form to?”
“Just before leaving, he separated from the Sun True Obscurity Sword’s core, why would you think I know where they went?” the Sword Intent retorted.
“Didn’t they communicate with each other before separating you?” Yan Yu quickly questioned, “With the threat of the Pure Land Sect looming, Chen Yanwei wouldn’t just leave the Zheni Sword Sect for no reason. There must be so underlying cause.”
The Sword Intent fell silent for a while, then said:
“Why do you think Chen Yanwei left the Ei Sword Sect all those years ago? At that ti, the sect’s influence was extrely weakened, surrounded by formidable enemies, constantly on the brink of collapse. To , as long as the sword master is human, it’s fine. I don’t necessarily have to serve Ei, but Chen Yanwei was different. He embodied the Ei Sword Sect’s lineage and would never allow my original form to fall into the hands of cultivators outside the sect. That’s why he forcibly took away.”
“I get it.” Yan Yu imdiately understood everything, “So your original form had a disagreent with Chen Yanwei.”
“I am the Sun True Obscurity Sword, and my duty is to protect humanity from the invasion of demons and monsters,” the Sword Intent didn’t deny this point, “not to beco an asset for passing down through a single sect, hidden away in that dark Underground Secret Realm, watching idly as humans in the outside world suffer… Perhaps the True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent doesn’t care, but I do.”
“So, out of respect for past affiliation, I am willing to assist him for another sixty years. He must, however, take to the place where the sun rises over the East Sea and seal away when the ti limit is nearing. This is to wait for the day when the Human Race faces its next great peril, for the predestined one to find once again and unleash the sword to save humanity.”
“The place where the sun rises over the East Sea…” Yan Yu pondered for a mont, then suddenly realized sothing.
Zhao Yuanzhen, i Yingxue’s origin from the Cultivation World, is a “Flat World”, hence there is indeed a Land of Extre East, but our Earth is round! If you keep flying east, you’ll just end up circling the Earth back to where you started.
The Mysterious Realms from the Cultivation World might manifest geographically on Earth in corresponding locations, but what place does the sunrise spot over the East Sea correspond to? The entire Pacific Ocean north of the equator? Surely you can’t search every inch under the sea!
Yan Yu relayed this to i Yingxue, and, to his surprise, Teacher i nodded gravely and said in a solemn voice:
“Yes, if even the Sword Intent doesn’t know the whereabouts of the Sun True Obscurity Sword, it seems we’re left with no choice but to conduct a thorough, ground-up search.”
“Search half of the Pacific Ocean?” Yan Yu couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you serious?”
“You don’t understand the importance of the Sun True Dullness Sword,” i Yingxue said earnestly, “It doesn’t matter if it’s in the Pacific Ocean or even on the moon, we have to find it.”
“That’s right!” Sword Intent also started to clamor, “This young lady understands my importance better than you do! Too bad, since the Sun Sword Master tradition is usually passed on to males and not females, otherwise, I would have abandoned you and sought her out already.”
“Fine, fine, go find it,” Yan Yu said dismissively.
“Didn’t you say it’s passed on to males and not females?” Sword Intent asked.
“So what if I consider myself non-male, does that work for you?” Yan Yu chuckled, “Can you leave now?”
Sword Intent didn’t answer, staying silent. Clearly, the concept of non-binary gender was too advanced for soone like him, an “old sword conservative.”
“Could you ask Sword Intent for ,” i Yingxue continued, “if it has any way of remotely sensing its main body?”
“Yes, I do,” Sword Intent imdiately replied, “As long as I’m within about six miles of the main body, I can sense its presence. Hurry and take to search the Pacific Ocean!”
“No,” Yan Yu quickly made a helpless gesture and shook his head in front of i Yingxue, “It said it can’t do it.”
“Hey!” Sword Intent shouted angrily, “You thick-skinned shaless fellow!”
“I see,” i Yingxue mused, “Well, it looks like we’ll have to resort to using underwater robots.”
“No matter how many drones you have, it won’t be enough to search the entire Pacific Ocean,” Yan Yu pointed out.
“But we have to try,” i Yingxue insisted, “What if we do find it?”
She paused for a mont in thought and then warned,
“From now on, be cautious with using Sword Intent. After all, every bit you use is a bit less you have; once it’s gone, it’s gone. Having the Sun True Dullness Sword’s Intent within you brings far more benefits than using it for imdiate gain.”
“Don’t worry, Teacher i,” Yan Yu smiled, “I’m well aware.”
“You don’t have to call Teacher i, we’re all fellow cultivators from Lu Country,” i Yingxue smiled, “Speaking of which, I’ve been encountering so issues with swordsmanship recently and I’d like to consult the Sun True Dullness Sword Intent, can you ask for ?”
She took out a sketch notebook from her bosom, which was filled with densely packed writing. Yan Yu leaned in curiously, thinking that he could offer her swordsmanship advice too – why bother consulting that smug old sword?
But upon closer inspection, i Yingxue wasn’t struggling with the minutiae of swordsmanship at all, but was truly contemplating the deeper aspects of it, like exploring the dynamic transitions between movent and stillness, the shifts between offense and defense, and the relationship between technique and thod… Those profound topics that had no set answers and were subject to everyone’s individual thoughts and interpretations.
“How rare, how rare,” the Sun True Dullness Sword Intent marvelled, “Although this cultivator hasn’t reached Core Formation, the depth of her thoughts is starting to approach that of a Golden Core Master. anwhile, soone else is stuck on trivial details, fearing that they may encounter a barrier in their understanding and stumble at the most critical mont!”
“Would you shut up,” Yan Yu said impatiently, “Just answer!”
He conveyed the Sun True Dullness Sword Intent’s response to i Yingxue, listening himself with great interest, often experiencing flashes of inspiration, and learning a great deal.
Indeed, the value of the Sun True Dullness Sword Intent was not only in its ability to unleash formidable power, but also in the profound understanding of swordsmanship it had accumulated from serving nurous generations of Sun Sword Masters. It was the knowledge ‘Golden Finger’ that every Sword Immortal dreamt of – Teacher i’s advice to keep the Sword Intent and not use it rashly was indeed wise!
While the two were engrossed in their academic discussion, they suddenly felt restless in spirit, with a slight tremor in their Divine Sense, as if so world-shaking phenonon was about to occur.
In the next second, they sensed the Spiritual Energy in their surroundings growing denser and thicker, as if they weren’t in the real world anymore but in a small Mysterious Realm where the essence of heaven and earth was concentrated.
Yan Yu and i Yingxue exchanged glances, reading the answer in each other’s eyes:
The upper limit of Earth’s Spiritual Energy Concentration had risen once again!
