Martial Boss Chapter 884

When they think of the past, a variety of emotions flow from the eyes of the buried sword masters, be it nostalgia, grief, deep thought —— or a little regret ——

The Sword God Lake has carried the memories of these old men for most of their lives, and even today, 150 years after the Sword God Lake has gone up in smoke, they still have their hearts set on rebuilding the Sword God Lake.

“Haha, getting old, they’re all starting to get sad, I’ve made little friend Yuan laugh.”

The Buried Sword Peak Master laughed, wiping away the despondency of remembering the past, and said, “This Sword Pond was built by us, following the example of the Sunken Sword Lake. Over the past 150 years, we have sunk our own swords into it and practised it day after day, and now it has taken on the appearance of the Sinking Sword Lake.

You were born with a sword bone, and you were born with a sword energy in your body. What is even more precious is that you are not afraid of hardships, and you nurture your sword qi and sword body day after day, making this innate sword qi grow stronger and stronger.

Moreover, the sword intent in the Sacred Sword Tablet has also laid the foundation for you to reach the peak. All that is needed is for little friend to spend some time in the Sword Pond and absorb the sword qi and sword intent therein, and then he will be able to break through to the Tong Shen in a logical manner, without leaving a trace of aftereffects.”

With 150 years of training, the pond had become part of the Sinking Sword Lake, and could even help a swordsman at the peak of the True Dan realm to break through to Godhood without any side effects, and if the swordsman could absorb the bottom of the pond, he could even avoid at least 30 years of hard training once he broke through.

Behind this miraculous effect was the heavy price paid by the people of Buried Sword Peak. For a whole hundred and fifty years, their strength had rarely advanced, and some of them had even regressed instead of advancing due to the destruction of their sword hearts.

The Sword Pond was the last hope of the Buried Sword Clan, a hope shaped for the emergence of a new Sword God.

And today, the time has come for that hope to take effect. It was just that whether or not the Sword God could eventually be brought back would still depend on the will of the heavens and the will of man.

“Little friend Yuan, this sword pond that has sacrificed a hundred and fifty years of light and time for old me and the others, you-”

The Buried Sword Peak Master met Yuan Jian Yi with all four eyes and said with a single word: “Can you bear, accept, afford, and afford it?”

This was a trust of hope, a trust of responsibility, if Yuan Jian Yi could not achieve something, then in the centuries to come, the sword dao might still be spinning under the peak like this, or it might even fall into ruin.

To this, Yuan Jian Yi’s answer was, “I can.”

A simple word that spoke of unparalleled determination. In Yuan Jian Yi’s dictionary, there was no can’t and no dare, only forward.

“Haha, good,” the Buried Sword Peak Master let out a long laugh as his large sleeves swept away and swept Yuan Jian Yi into the Sword Pond, “Then let me bear witness.”

Yuan Jian Yi’s figure was submerged in the pool of swords, not making a single ripple. But beneath the pool of swords, the forest of sword weapons trembled, and invisible sword intent pervaded, containing a legend that could be born.

————————

The ninth day of the twelfth month, the day when the Star of the Broken Army shone.

On this day, two mysterious guests came to the Hongzhou Lian family. Wrapped in black robes, not showing a trace of their presence, Lian Feihong was only able to judge the great strength of one of them based on his years of experience in dealing with the situation.

“Two, please come with me, my son is at the furnace underground to recast his blades and cannot come out to welcome you.” Lian Feihong raised her hand in a false lead and said to the two black-robed mystics.

The three men, one in front of the other, marched into the cave at the back of the Lian family.

After travelling at least a hundred metres down the stone staircase from the interior of the cave, a hot wind blew in.

“Underground lava?” The taller, mysterious man said.

“That’s right, the Lian family’s workshop uses the underground magma as the source of fire, and when the Lian family chose Hongzhou as the family residence, it was for the magma underneath several volcanoes in Hongzhou.” Lian Feihong said.

Turning a corner, a dark and sunken landscape entered the eye, and the hot breeze that poured in carried a scorching heat like hell.

The Lian family’s underground workshop had arrived.

Above the lava lake, which covers a considerable area, a platform of black, cold iron is embedded in the mountain wall and cast in the air, and through a grating on the iron floor that resembles a drainage outlet, the brilliant red colour of the lava lake below can still be seen.

The platform occupies two thirds of the area, and dozens of furnaces have been built above it. It could be seen that in the past, this underground workshop should have been a hot and spectacular scene, with dozens of furnaces working at the same time, introducing the magma below, and countless sounds of iron beating, either crisp or low.

But the underground furnaces had been shut down for six days in order to recast Qing Yu’s weapons.

The reason for this was that, apart from the reason of not allowing others to disturb it, there was also the factor of secrecy. After all, the weapon that was about to come out of the furnace was forged for the purpose of killing the Time Fate Elder’s pawn, the Breaking Star Lord.

Lian Feihong led the two mysterious men to the platform near the edge of it, and next to this was the fiery lava lake.

“Ah Lin, the emissary of the Real Man is here.” Lian Feihong said to Lian Lin, who was standing at the edge of the platform.

Lian Lin looked at the two mysterious men, examined them for a moment, and said, “The sword has been forged, two, which one of you wants to use it?”

A message had been sent beforehand that when the sword came out of the furnace, it would be best for the person who would use it to start it in person, which was why Lian Lin asked this question.

The two mysterious men lifted their hoods to reveal their true faces.

The slightly shorter one was a woman, with a delicate, mature face that had a slightly exotic look, and two crossed sword marks on her eyebrows that revealed a sense of evil.

The other, a young man with long dark green hair, had a steely face beneath his long hair with an evil aura, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if they were two sharp swords.

This duo was none other than Jian Ji and Xuan Yin Jian Su. Among them, Jian Ji had already been possessed by Qing Yu with the “Great Technique of Traveling in the Spiritual World”.

“Swordsman, go on, take out the swords.” Qing Yu took control of Jian Ji’s body and said.

“Yes.”

Xuan Yin Jian Su leapt off the platform and stepped on the lava lake below as if his feet were solid.

Lowering his stance, he probed into the lava with one hand, and the lava, which was strong enough to burn gold and boil iron, was like a pool of cool water, allowing Sword Sook’s palm to probe into it.

“Whoo-ooh…”

There was a sudden eerie chill in the blazing underground workshop, and a faint, cold whimper sounded.

No, not faint, but tangible.

Ghostly green shadows emerged from beneath the lava lake, and countless dark green skeletons opened and closed their mouths as they slowly rose up.

“Oh? I didn’t think there would be such an effect.” Qing Yu wondered.

Apart from the Wolf Tooth Rod, Qing Yu had actually sent the Heavenly Demon Battle Armour later on, allowing the two Heavenly Demon Inheritance items to completely fuse and forge a new weapon.

And now, it seemed to have quite a strange effect.

The sound of ghostly cries continued, and as the Xuan Yin Sword Sage straightened up, the cold and deadly aura even filled the surroundings, completely covering up the hot air of the lava lake.

“Boom…”

The Xuan Yin Swordsman’s body also emerged with a sinister and demonic aura, resonating with the sword weapon below, and a ghostly shadow was injected into the sword from his hand, and then –

The sword was pulled out.
