824 Ten Extreme Imperial Dao (2/2)

They were able to use artifacts like a part of their bodies, merging their intents together, their combat strength was often really high.

The sword cultivators and Sword Sect, even Dragon Shadow also obtained some of their legacies.

However this route leaned towards the outer path. It was tough for one to form a Dao using it during the Saint Realm.

Long story short it slowly went out of popularity.

However the extreme strong combat strength that was unique to the artifact cultivators forty years ago still made people today reminisce and envy.

What would this sword formation be like?

He held up the blueprint and was instantly shocked. This paper was made out of an unknown material, the quality was only a small grade worse that the Book of Eon.

A thin piece was heavy enough that he nearly couldn't hold it up.

It wasn't that he didn't have enough strength, but the Dao encapsulated within exceeded what his soul could carry.

When he held it in his hand, he felt like his Soul Ocean was shaking, his soul power was also fluctuating.

On close look there were threads of extremely sharp sword energy charging into his soul.

Small beads of cold sweats appeared all around Zong Shou's forehead.

He was able to sense more and more how unusual and extraordinary it was.

”I was exactly like you when I came into contact with it! However it was even more dangerous, my soul nearly shattered. It was said that the person who crafted this sword formation was able to fight several End Realm experts and not be at a disadvantage at all, able to stand on the level of Saint Venerables. Unfortunately even if his combat strength was strong he was still unable to form a Dao and died with a withered corpse.”

That Chen Yuexuan seemed to understand Zong Shou's situation, taking back the blueprint to let him come back to his senses.

”This formation is really similar to your Three Thousand Star Falling Technique. It doesn't have much special requests for materials, naturally this sword's quality will affect the strength of the formation. It doesn't specify the amount, just ten is enough, at most tens of thousands. I also once wanted to try my hand but now isn't like forty thousand years ago and spiritual treasures aren't that easy to find. I am also alone and can't compare to those sects, rich families. In the end I could only give up. Is this enough to satisfy esteemed guest?”

Zong Shou blinked his eyes, his clear gaze shone like stars, his face was filled with desire.

This sword formation was simply a perfect fit for him.

Although the sword formation was making him dizzy when he looked at it, but it would be better when he looked at it in the future.

However he was nervous. He would probably have to pay a huge price to take this item, he would probably have to bleed for it.

Chen Yuexuan just needed to look at his expression and he knew that the answer to the question was obvious. He shook his head and then took out dozens of blueprints which he passed over to Zong Shou.

”Before you give up, I have once spent much effort to analyse the sword formation. As it is too complicated and I am not from the artifact cultivation line, thus I tried to simplify it. In the end when I tried I noticed that I was still unable to complete it! If esteemed guest is interested, you can try from this simplified version. When you have the ability then try your hand at the real...”

He stopped when he said that, his expression suddenly turned solemn and serious.

”However I won't take money for this, I also won't trade you for it. If you want to take it you have to make a promise. When you have the ability you also have to help me do something!”

Zong Shou was stunned and looked over with a weird expression, there was totally no surprise at learning that it was free.

With this person's ability, if there is something that even he couldn't do then it would be really a big problem.

As compared to this promise, he would rather use those celestial stones to solve it.

However that was true, with this person's ability he became an artifact blacksmith in such a secluded area. He had to have his reason for doing so.

※※※※

In the end when he left the Tianfang World, Zong Shou still agreed to his request.

The temptation of the sword formation was something that he couldn't resist.

He knew that it was a huge problem and would have some risk but he still made the promise.

That was because he knew that if he missed it, who knows when he would be able to find such a compatible and strong sword formation blueprint.

Before he left, Chen Yuexuan's words made him careful.

”Although the sword formation is strong but it consumes a large amount of life force. When I was young I even used up three hundred years because of this, till date I am filled with much regret. The sword is an outer item and one cannot be too focused on its power and also can't dwell too deeply into it. Cultivators like us cultivate for tens of thousands of years to be able to reach the end of the Dao to live forever? This is the true path. Thinking about that senior from forty thousand years ago, I really pity him...”

He was really caring when he said those words, filling Zong Shou up with much emotions.

Right path? How would I not know that?

Outside Tianfang World, Zong Shou shook his head and laughed.

At this time the Taoist Faction was still eyeing him aggressively and they wouldn't give up so easily.

Before this problem was totally solved, he was faced with the Lu Family pressure too.

Killing Lu Zi also offended a strong enemy which was connected with him in terms of the bloodline.

If he didn't prepare such abilities to protect himself, how could he be at ease?

However if not for him already prepared to go from complicated to simple, he really didn't dare to take the blueprints of this Ten Extreme Imperial Dao Destruction Sword Formation...
