649 Nameless Sword (1/2)

”What a good sword!”

Zong Shou's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what kind of spiritual formation was within the sword or what kind of ability it had, its sharpness was enough to delight him.

What was surprising was that although it was an Intermediate Grade Magical Treasure, he could use it with his cultivation without any obstructions.

No weapon at his side had lasted over a year. Although he had a few reserves, they didn't suit him.

The Green Dragon Hairpin Sword given to him by Tanqiu was good, but it still felt petty.

As for this sword, he loved it.

But where had it come from?

His spiritual sense was spread out to sense Hanfang and Ruolan.

However this sword just suddenly appeared from nowhere.

Had it been brought by a Common People Path senior? There was no way it had just been left here.

He looked at the sky, and then searched the sword's body for a mark or name.

… This sword has no name? Then I will just call it Nameless!

Just as Zong Shou was ready to hang it at his waist, he felt the sword shake slightly.

He was slightly surprised. This Nameless Sword seemed to have a spirit. It seemed unhappy with the name Zong Shou had given it.

Moments later, it calmed back down.

Zong Shou's eyes lit up. It was really an Artifact Spirit. He had really picked up a treasure.

As long as one was willing to spend money, one could create an Artifact Spirit. Even Celestial Artifacts and God Artifacts could be created.

Based on what he knew, all Celestial Artifacts had to have sentience. Most of them were developed from Magical Treasures.

There were many Celestial Artifacts in the world. However, no matter how good the Celestial Sword was, it couldn't be compared to weapons one raised oneself.

Who knew which senior was so generous?

At this moment, Zong Shou didn't know that at the same time within the Ancestral Temple of the Vast Habitat, a strange golden sword suddenly shone brightly, illuminating the entire room in purple and gold.

A moment later the light was retracted.

Then, the purple gold book above the sword changed. Its cover flew open and its pages were flipped incessantly.

One page suddenly moved forward. The book was opened from the 16th to the 15th pages, before it closed with a thump.

Hundreds of worlds away from the Cloud World, two women casually walking in the void frowned. They looked back towards the Cloud World.

Mysterious Life Golden Book?

Golden page shifting forwards, who had caused it?

※※※※

Zong Shou finally found his quarry within the Outer Region World River.

When Zong Shou rushed over, he saw Shi Ruolan holding a short knife, fighting a huge Golden Flame Wolf.

Intense flames hovered around its body, and it was also covered in golden spikes. Each strike from it was extremely quick and extremely dangerous.

It was only a grade-7 spirit beast. In Zong Shou's eyes, it could be killed with a flick of the finger.

However, to Shi Ruolan, it was very dangerous. Her small body dodged and dove without rest, but each time she only barely avoided death. If she didn't pay attention, her brain would be smashed, or her stomach cut right open.

Amazingly she was still able to retaliate. The short knife in her hands drew thin wounds on the body of the Golden Flame Wolf.

However, with its size, these blows were an itch at most.

Hanfang stood at the side, his cloud-like aura covering the area.

Originally, it would be difficult for him to see the scene, but with the Nine Tail Sky Fox blood and also the Illusionary Heart Mirror, this level of illusionary technique couldn't hide anything from him.

Zong Shou's heart jumped as he looked on. He stopped beside Hanfang and sighed.

”This is too cruel! Senior Brother, is this considered torture of a disciple?”

Hanfang frowned, and then laughed coldly. ”The Snow Lion Race fight those beasts beneath the Cloud Ocean when they are twelve. Shi Ruolan is already fourteen! At this age, you were chased out by Lingyun Sect and left to die. Although my disciple can't be on your level, I will not allow her to be weaker than others.”

Zong Shou thought to himself, How could we be similar? I have decades of experience from my last life!

Hanfang stood, watching the fight without even blinking. Just one look, and one knew how much importance he placed on her.

Hanfang said, ”I am just joking! Junior Brother, don't be angry. Without going through life and death battles, one's martial path won't be able to improve.”
