Chapter 89: Dragon-Slaying Sword Advances Without Retreat, Ten Thousand Swords Return as One to Slay Gods and Ghosts
Ye Xuan hovered above this river of stars; although he had fished four times already, every time he saw the scene within the fishing space, he still could not help but feel shocked.
He withdrew his gaze, his mind stirred slightly, and a purple-gold fishing rod appeared out of thin air in his hand; the rod body flowed with mysterious light patterns, as if resonating with this river of stars. Without hesitation, Ye Xuan flicked his wrist; the fishing line traced a beautiful arc, plunging toward the endless stars beneath his feet, and in an instant vanished into the brilliant starry sea.
He closed his eyes and focused his spirit, letting the fishing line drift in the starry sea; time here seemed to lose all meaning until a slight tremor came from the fishing rod.
Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes and his arm exerted force abruptly; the purple-gold fishing rod cut through the starry sky, and the fishing line was drawn back from the starry sea. At its end, a green light ball was slowly dragged out; as the light flowed, a sound resembling a dragon's roar could faintly be heard within it.
The System's voice also sounded beside Ye Xuan's ear.
【Ding】
【Congratulations Host, obtained item — Dragon-Slaying Sword】
【Item Name: Dragon-Slaying Sword】
【Belonging World: Zhen Xian World】
【Item Information: Dragon-Slaying Sword, forged over six years using ten-thousand-year green crystals from the extreme bitter lands of the Southern Border. On the day the sword was completed, thunder roared in the sky and rain fell like dragon blood, hence it was named: Dragon-Slaying. It is one of the Nine Heavens Divine Weapons.】
【Note 1: The Dragon-Slaying Sword advances without retreat, slaying countless traitors and villains. To use this sword, one must charge forward courageously, using offense as defense. Even if one's cultivation is insufficient, one must be determined to slay all strong enemies; only thus can its divine power be unleashed.】
【Note 2: The Dragon-Slaying Sword advances without retreat; ten thousand swords return as one to slay gods and ghosts. The sword contains the sword intent of two sword masters from the Immortal World. Those with exceptional sword talent can comprehend from it one of the four true sword techniques of the Qingyun Sect: Slay the God and Ghost.】
"The Dragon-Slaying Sword from Zhen Xian? That is unexpected."
"However, I do indeed lack a weapon right now."
Ye Xuan was somewhat surprised that the item he fished up was the Dragon-Slaying Sword from the Zhen Xian World, but he could accept it.
For the Myriad Heavens Fishing System, fishing up items from any world is normal; moreover, Zhen Xian is one of the worlds he is familiar with.
It is just that the level of the Zhen Xian World, not counting the second part, is not considered high. It appears to be cultivation, yet "Immortals" do not appear within it; the Taiching realm can already be considered its ceiling.
The improvement the Dragon-Slaying Sword could bring him was estimated to not be very great.
However, it is still suitable for him now.
Although it cannot compare to the Wangquan Sword in the Fox Spirit World, it is after all one of the Nine Heavens Divine Weapons, sufficient to carry his sword intent; moreover, the sword intents of Wan Wan Jianyi and Lin Lin Jingyu are contained within it, which is also helpful to him.
Compared to using the Rat Shu Shu Fu Zhou to manifest characters and communicate with them, comprehending through the sword body is naturally simpler.
However, the main reason is the different rules between worlds, which can only be eliminated after possessing Myriad Heavens Treasures; just as Ye Xuan can use the Rat Shu Shu Fu Zhou to manifest characters from different worlds, yet cannot learn abilities from other worlds from them.
"System, claim the Dragon-Slaying Sword."
As soon as the words fell, the void suddenly rippled, and a long sword appeared out of thin air.
The sword body was as translucent as jade, yet a dragon-shaped relief could be seen winding from the sword guard to the sword tip. The dragon-shaped lines flowed smoothly like floating clouds and flowing water; although there were no details of individual dragon scales, the variations in the deep and shallow green of the sword body itself presented the posture of a swimming dragon rising through clouds under the starlight.
The blade was clear and bright like a pool of autumn water, with chilling air that was piercing; a faint green halo flowed at the sword edge, as if it were about to burst forth as dragon breath at any moment.
"The sword body has a dragon shape, the blade is clear like autumn water, auspicious qi steams up, and it is green as water."
"Dragon-Slaying! What a Dragon-Slaying Sword!"
The instant his five fingers closed, the sword body suddenly blazed with intense green light; the dragon-shaped relief seemed to be infused with life, and the entire swimming dragon began to flow across the sword body. The dazzling light was like a green dragon emerging from water, illuminating the entire starry sea with rippling green waves.
A clear and high-pitched dragon roar resounded through the void, the sound waves causing the surrounding stars to tremble slightly.
The color of fondness in Ye Xuan's eyes almost became substantial; his fingertips lightly stroked the cold sword body. For any sword-path cultivator, it is impossible to refuse a good sword.
The Dragon-Slaying Sword might not increase his strength much, but judging solely by the sword itself, it is absolutely excellent.
After exiting the System space, Ye Xuan's spiritual power rushed into the sword body like a surging river; in an instant, the Dragon-Slaying Sword erupted with earth-shattering green light. Sword qi shot straight to the nine heavens, and a green dragon phantom as solid as reality rose from the sword edge. As the dragon head lifted high, it let out a thunderous dragon roar, the sound waves turning into visible ripples that spread layer by layer through the clouds.
That green dragon phantom expanded as soon as it met the wind; under the influx of Ye Xuan's massive spiritual power, it instantly transformed into a hundred-zhang giant dragon coiling across the sky. Its green scales and claws tore through the sea of clouds, and the entire sky was dyed the color of green mist.
When this dragon roar resounded across the four wilds, when the sound of the dragon roar echoed across the heavens, in various places of Great Xia, several sounds of sword ringing sounded one after another.
Jiangcheng, Jinxiu Community.
A black-haired boy was striking the keyboard with full concentration; the game character on the screen was slaughtering enemies on all sides in a team battle. Suddenly, his fingers stopped abruptly, and his eyebrows furrowed.
"Hey! Lin Lin Xiaoyang, what are you staring at? Hurry up and deal damage!"
The teammate's roar came through the headphones.
Lin Lin Xiaoyang said with a strange expression:
"I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel like something is ringing."
"Ring my foot! If you go AFK again, I'll report you!"
Lin Lin Xiaoyang completely ignored his teammate's cursing, took off his headphones, and suddenly stood up. The sound became clearer and clearer, as if it were vibrating right beside his ear, or as if it were coming from the depths of his heart.
He looked around, and finally his gaze fell on the decorative sword hanging on the wall. It was snow-white all over, with a crimson pattern running through the center of the sword body, and the sword handle was deep red like blood.
Lin Lin Xiaoyang's Adam's apple rolled. If he remembered correctly, this sword was bought three months ago; at that time, many people were buying various things from anime because of the appearance of Myriad Heavens Treasures.
Coincidentally, an anime he loved immensely in his childhood had regained popularity on the internet at that time; he also saw this sword, and then bought it.
And the name of this sword, he remembered until now, or rather, never forgot.
The sword is three chi and five cun long; the sword body is crimson like blood, unbreakable, and the sharpest.
Its name — Changhong!
Luocheng, a certain martial arts hall.
A girl who was wiping a wooden sword suddenly looked up, her gaze pointing directly at the pale blue long sword at the very top of the weapon rack. The sword body suddenly frosted over without cause, and a emerald was embedded on the cyan-blue sword handle.
Without anyone touching it, it emitted a clear and cold sword ring!
Its name — Ice Soul!
Yunhai City, Antique Street.
A stall owner wearing glasses suddenly pressed down on the counter. Inside the glass cabinet, a long sword with a sword body entirely dark purple trembled violently, emitting purple light.
Its name — Purple Cloud!
Nanling, a martial arts school.
On the training ground, a broad sword used as a teaching tool suddenly bounced off the rack. With a "Clang!", it stabbed into the ground. The sword body's Jin Guang exploded, its sharpness fully revealed, and thunder roared in the vast clear sky.
Its name — Thunder Rush!
Xichuan, Shenshan Taoist Temple.
A sword with swirling cyan light, enshrined on the incense table, moved without wind; its blade slithered like a living snake, emitting a clear, trembling hum.
Its name—Cyan Light!
Yang City, Film City Prop Warehouse.
A deep blue, purple-tinged scabbard suddenly vibrated out of the box; the blade emitted a faint blue glow, and a faint sound of wind echoed in the air.
Its name—Whirlwind!
Imperial Capital, Museum.
Inside the display case, an ancient sword with a pale green blade suddenly emitted a blinding light; alarms blared abruptly, green light surged toward people, and sword qi coiled around.
Its name—Rain Flower!
Hmm, although the Dragon-Slaying Sword is not bad, it feels a bit like suppressing combat power; but next time you fish, you certainly won't say I'm suppressing combat power; you'll even think the cheat I've opened for the host is too huge.
Hehe, please look forward to it a little; everyone can also guess which world it's from, but it's not an anime.
