Chapter 20: Dao Sword Recognizes a Master
Lin Chao stood where he was, feeling that his talent, Sword Soul, was currently activating.
This talent could bestow a Sword Soul upon a sword.
At this moment, he was bestowing a Sword Soul upon the Dao Sword.
At this moment, he felt a massive amount of information flooding into his mind.
This information was incredibly chaotic and disordered, with absolutely no pattern to it.
This feeling was very unpleasant.
Lin Chao frowned.
Beside him, the surprise on Lin Leng's face upon seeing this scene immediately turned into worry.
The recognition of a master by a Strange Treasure has occurred four times in Great Cang.
However, of those four times, three people died, and only one survived.
When a Strange Treasure recognizes a master, if the master's willpower is not strong enough, they will become lost and die.
Among them, Cang Jun is the only person who successfully made the Canglong Stone recognize him as master.
He is also the strongest person in this world.
"Sect Master, do not worry.
The Young Sect Master has been intelligent since childhood; good people have their own heavenly protection!" a martial artist nearby spoke up.
This was the first time a Dao Sword had recognized a master.
The dangers involved were unknown, but they were definitely extremely terrifying.
Lin Leng stood to the side, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, yet he had no way to help.
Just then, Lin Chao, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
The Dao Sword recognizing a master was incredibly dangerous.
This tested not only willpower but also the Dao Heart.
However, Lin Chao possessed the No-Refusal Dao Heart.
This was a purple-tier talent, extremely powerful.
Dealing with the massive information impact of the Dao Sword was naturally a trivial matter.
Eight-year-old Lin Chao's eyes brimmed with brilliance.
At this moment, the Dao Sword had stunningly recognized him as its master.
He also felt that his body seemed to have become different.
Lin Leng let out a sigh of relief, his body trembling with excitement; even now, he found it hard to believe: "The Dao Sword has recognized you as its master?"
Lin Chao nodded: "Yes."
Lin Leng took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his surprise, though his body still could not help but tremble.
His gaze swept over everyone present, and a formidable aura erupted from him.
"This matter today must absolutely not be spread!" Lin Leng said.
The others all nodded with solemn expressions: "Understood."
They naturally knew that this matter was of great importance.
Originally, Cang Jun was already incredibly wary of the other eleven forces that possessed Strange Treasures.
He wished he could eliminate them as quickly as possible.
If Cang Jun were to learn that the Dao Sword had recognized Lin Ping as its master.
Lin Leng believed that it would not be long before the Extraordinary Persons of Taiqing Palace arrived at the Beiling Danjian Sect.
The current Danjian Sect had no ability to resist Taiqing Palace.
Lin Leng looked at Lin Ping, his eyes full of joy: "Ping'er, I will keep the Dao Sword for you for now; after you turn fourteen, I will give you a brand-new Dao Sword!"
Lin Leng made a major decision.
He wanted to modify the Dao Sword.
Or rather, add a sword edge to the exterior of the Dao Sword.
This move could hide the true appearance of the Dao Sword.
"Okay." Lin Chao naturally did not refuse.
To him, these things were not important.
He was currently considering how to improve his strength.
He discovered that Extraordinary Persons were indeed special.
As he was now, having only just undergone Awakening, he felt his strength was already comparable to Heize, who had few Simulator talents.
One had to know, he was an eight-year-old boy, not a boy of over forty.
Returning to his room, Lin Chao closed his eyes to rest.
He was sensing the power within his body.
He realized that this power was very strange.
It was somewhat similar to... genetic mutation? Or variation?
He felt that he was growing stronger every moment, rather than needing to cultivate.
"I have already stayed here for eight years; it is time to go back."
Lin Chao already understood that when he was in a simulated reincarnation, time in the Main World of his original body was frozen.
After returning to the Main World, this world also paused at that very instant.
Of course, Lin Chao could choose to continue walking, but during that time, his body would be in an instinctive, automated state.
Lin Chao naturally would not choose that.
"Return to the Main World."
Lin Chao said to the Reincarnation Simulator.
Instantly, he appeared in reality once again.
The time was exactly the same as when he entered the reincarnation simulation; not a single moment had passed.
Within this, there must certainly exist unfathomable factors.
"These eight years of memories feel just like a recollection."
Lin Chao stretched his back.
Eight years had passed, but for Lin Chao himself, there was no impact whatsoever.
He still remembered what he had eaten today, as well as the details of it.
And even the color of the silk stockings his distant cousin was wearing.
He did not feel any sense of temporal disorientation.
Lin Chao checked the time; it was already late.
He made three dishes and one soup, and began to eat with great relish.
No matter what, the quality of life must not decline.
Besides, he now had a small amount of savings, didn't he?
While eating, he used his phone to search for history regarding the Great Cang.
However, there was not much serious history about the Great Cang online.
There was, however, one point that caught Lin Chao's attention.
There were quite a lot of Mythical legends from the Great Cang period.
This made him think of Extraordinary Persons.
Was there any connection between the two?
Lin Chao fell into deep thought.
Just then, a call came in, and Lin Chao answered the phone.
Zhao Xiaoyi's anxious voice immediately came through.
"Brother Lin Chao, hurry and watch the livestream; there's a new development regarding Heize in the Dahuang Mountain Range!"
