Chapter 455 – Regardless! (1/2)

Yang Ye was first shocked and filled with disbelief, and then he became vigilant and terrified. In the end, he shook his head and smiled. “Senior, that’s all the secrets I have left!” He didn’t know why Elder Mu knew he possessed the tiny vortex, but he was sure that Elder Mu probably had no ill intent towards him. At the very least, Elder Mu didn’t have any right now. Otherwise, he would be dead by now!

Elder Mu smiled and said, “You’re smart to not do anything stupid. Otherwise, I would be very disappointed.”

Yang Ye fell silent for a moment before he asked. “Senior, when did you find out?”

“That isn’t important!” Elder Mu said, “The important thing is that it’s really in your possession. You know, when I noticed that it was in your possession, I’d aroused the thought to seize it from you by force. However, I gave up in the end because it chose you, so I wouldn’t be able to get it even if I killed you. Or perhaps, even if I did obtain it, it would be of no use to me!”

Yang Ye instantly broke out in cold sweat upon hearing Elder Mu. So Elder Mu actually intended to kill me and seize it from me in the beginning….

“You’re the only variable in this world!” Elder Mu said, “And you’re the only profounder in profounder continent who possesses a limitless future. If someone in this world is able to unravel the secrets of the Heavenpath, then that person is definitely you. You have no other choice because if you don’t, then both you and the people you care about will die in the future. Or I should say that all the living beings on this continent will die slowly!”

Yang Ye shook his head and laughed as he said, “Elder Mu, you say that I’m the only person on this world who’s capable of unravelling the secrets of the Heaven Path, and I’m the only one who can become that ‘savior’ you speak of. However, Elder Mu, you ought to be clearly aware that many people in this world hope for my death, yet I should fight desperately to become a savior for them? I’m sorry, but I’m really not such a n.o.ble person. Perhaps I would investigate the Heavenpath for my sake and the sake of the people I care about, but I’ll absolutely not do it for the inhabitants of this world. Their fates aren’t related to me at all, because in the same way, my fate isn’t related to them at all!”

Become a savior? What a joke! The inhabitants of the world didn’t need him to be their savior, and he didn’t want to be their savior. He was really not that n.o.ble nor did he have the time or leisure to do that. Because he was determined to avenge his mother.

Elder Mu sighed lightly and said, “Fine, I can’t force this on you. Besides telling you some secrets about the Heavenpath, the reason I asked you to come in here and take a look at the corpses of these experts was because I wanted to tell you something. You must work hard and cultivate to become stronger, because you might become one of them if your strength is insufficient. After all, numerous Sword Emperors and Martial G.o.ds are amongst them!”

“I understand!” Yang Ye nodded.

Elder Mu nodded, and then he waved his right hand. The cover of a coffin that was around 300m away from them was instantly flipped open, and then a ray of light flashed before a dark blue sword chest appeared in Elder Mu’s grasp.

“This sword chest was left behind by a Sword Emperor. There are only four swords within it but all of them are Dao Artifacts. They’re respectively called Heavenfault, Earthflaw, Soulslayer, and G.o.dslaughter. These swords were crafted by that Sword Emperor to seek revenge, and they contain his monstrous killing intent and hatred. I didn’t give them to you in the past because you were unable to resist the killing intent and hatred they continued. But now…. Haha! 8th level Slaughter Sword Intent is entirely sufficient to take control of them!” Elder Mu smiled as he spoke these words.

“Four Dao Artifacts?” Yang Ye gulped down a mouthful of saliva and asked with slight shock.

Elder Mu nodded and said, “This sword chest has a sword formation within it, and it’s called ‘Ruin’. The heavens and the earth would be ruined before these four swords. Haha, even though it’s quite exaggerated, its might is extraordinary. Most importantly, their might would become even more terrifying if they’re utilized with your Sword Control Technique and 8th level Slaughter Sword Intent!”

Yang Ye took the sword chest from Elder Mu, and he felt excited for a moment before he calmed down and issued a command in his heart. Four swords that were inscribed with countless mysterious talisman markings shot out from within the sword chest and floated before him. As soon as they appeared here, a strand of terrifying killing intent and peerlessly violent hatred a.s.saulted his face, and it caused Yang Ye to frown a little.

Elder Mu was right. If he hadn’t comprehended Slaughter Sword Intent and improved it to the 8th level, then the killing intent and hatred contained within them was sufficient to destroy his consciousness. Now, even though the killing intent and hatred they emanated could still affect him, it could be disregarded.

Yang Ye issued another command in his heart, and then the swords swished and appeared around 600m away from him.

Yang Ye was shocked when he witnessed this scene. They’re actually that swift? 600m in less than a breath of time? That’s even a little bit faster than my Ninth h.e.l.l Swordwings and Rapid s.h.i.+ft! Even an Exalt Realm expert would probably be unable to avoid such swift swords, right?

Yang Ye placed them back into the sword chest, and then he remained silent for a short while before the profound energy within him surged violently into the sword chest. In an instant, a wave of violet winds appeared out of thin air around him, and then four rays of light shot out from within the sword chest like four shooting stars. The swords flickered incessantly in midair, and then numerous pitch black rifts appeared incessantly in the air as if the they really intended to bring ruin to the world.

Suddenly, the s.p.a.ce around the swords suddenly exploded apart with a bang, and Yang Ye watched in shock as a pitch black hole appeared there in s.p.a.ce.

Yang Ye was shocked by this because he hadn’t expected that the might of this sword formation would actually be so terrifying. Even though it was inferior to his Sword of Elements, but it was much more flexible and nimbler, just like the Sword Threads.

It could take the heads of his enemies in the distance with a single thought from him.

However, the sword formation did have a flaw, and it was that it exhausted too much profound energy. With the profound energy stores he possessed right now, he was only able to utilize it once, at most. However, Yang Ye was already very satisfied. After all, it was a sword formation formed from four Dao Artifacts, so it would be extremely unusual if he could utilize it without any limitations like the sword chest Bao’er had given him.

“You’re still unable to fully utilize its might with the strength you possess right now. Not only do you have to improve your Sword Intent, your cultivation has to be improved as well. Your cultivation is your foundation, and only its advancement would allow you to become a true member of the strong. No matter if it’s Sword Intent or the Sword Domain, they’ll only be stronger with a stronger cultivation as their foundation, understand?” said Elder Mu.

“Thank you for your guidance!” Yang Ye bowed to Elder Mu. He wholeheartedly agreed with Elder Mu. Because after he forcefully improved his cultivation to the Exalt Realm by way of a secret technique that day, he’d noticed that both his Sword Intent and Sword Domain had been greatly improved. Moreover, he could utilize both of them at will. Besides that, he could even execute combat techniques with much more ease.
