1002 Seeing Chuxue Again (1/2)
Instead, he was actually quite happy to see Wei Xu forge this fake God Refined Sword. With these seven swords, they would be able to increase the strength of the Common People's Path.
If it is like what Wei Xu said, that they could go up against two to three End Realm cultivators, then that would be great.
After walking past the sword formation, in just a few dozen breaths, they were within the main hall.
When they arrived here, Zong Shou saw that there was a purple-gold sword stuck at the staircase.
This time, Zong Shou recognized it right away. It was the true God Refined Sword.
It was stuck into the Green Stone ground, its glow was slightly dim as it was filled with a deathly energy.
Zong Shou looked over at Wei Xu and Mingyu in doubt. Wei Xu said, ”Senior Master Xiuguan shifted it here. He wanted to try if anyone within the Common People's Path could be its master, this was why he stuck it here. Anyone who is a disciple of the Common People's Path can try. However, unfortunately…”
He paused and his eyes dimmed, ”During these two months, none of the 300,000 disciples were able to pull out this sword.”
Zong Shou could also hear the despair in his tone. Thus, he quietly walked to the front of the sword. He hesitated a little before he reached out and grabbed the handle.
In that instant, he felt his heart suddenly jump.
He felt like he had a blood and flesh connection with this sword, it was like they were connected by soul.
The five feet sword body felt like an extension of his arm! Energies mixed and their meridians connected.
Zong Shou was delighted! He used his strength to pull, but then he was stunned.
Since his current cultivation was already in the Intermediate Celestial Realm, and his combat strength was comparable to that of the God Realm.
His pull was similar to a thousand small Sumeru Mountains!
However, this God Refined Sword seemed to have its own roots, it was stuck right on the ground and didn't move at all.
He tried once more and it was still the same. This proved that he had no affinity with this sword.
Actually, this was okay. It was good enough that he had the Nameless Sword.
His Nameless Sword had unlimited potential and even an End Realm couldn't see its limit. It also had numerous growth opportunities.
There might even be a day when it exceeded this God Refined Sword and become a God Weapon. There was actually no need for him to feel dejected about this situation.
However, he felt slightly weird. When he touched it, he felt like the God Refined Sword and him were one.
It felt like the both of them fought alongside one another for dozens of years.
However, in the end, he was unable to successfully pull it out. He felt that there was something that was lacking.
In the distance, there were hundreds of people who noticed the scenes here. The Common People's Path disciples that looked over, all shook their heads, they then discussed among themselves.
”Yet another person! It seems like this God Refined Sword is destined to have no master.”
”Who is that person that the Revered One personally welcomed?”
”He's Tanqiu. He's said to be the top disciple in the past decades. And even exceeded Taiyuan Fairy Shui Lingbo…”
”Is his cultivation at the Celestial Realm? This person's cultivation seemed to have just increased and his foundations aren't stable, which is why he can't hide his aura. He really only joined the sect for a dozen years?”
”Just over ten! Out of the Six Pinnacle Swords, only this person was really silent in the outer region, there had been no news about him at all. He had actually reached Celestial Realm without any signs!”
”He really is amazing! No wonder the Revered One personally came out!”
”Even such a person can't be recognized by the God Refined Sword? What does it want?”
”What conditions did Ancestor Xi Zi set for it? Isn't it a little strict?”
”What's the point of an ownerless sword? This is also happening when our Common People's Path is facing problems…”
People discussed and their words got more and more out of hand. Wei Xu's expression sunk and he looked around with a sharp gaze.
It caused the area around to be spontaneously silent. The Common People's Path disciples around all kept quiet.
Although that was the case, but there were still many people who were unhappy. It wasn't towards the God Refined Sword, but Wei Xu.
”In terms of this calamity, it was because he was reckless, this gave rise to the huge disaster for the Common People's Path.”
”For the tribulation of one person to drag down the entire Common People's Path…”
At this point, Mingyu scoffed coldly, it was filled with True Qi which shocked everyone's hearts.
Only then did everyone present kept truly silent.
The Nameless Sword continued to buzz like it was suffering from much unfairness.
Zong Shou didn't bother and instead looked towards Wei Xu. Although his face was calm, but the majestic body became a little dispirited, he was even filled with a tragic aura.
He gave out a self-mocking scoff as he continued to walk towards the main hall, not bothering to argue with those people at all.
Mingyu also sighed and followed.
He could use his prestige to suppress them and cause them to keep quiet, but he was unable to totally shut their mouths. They won't speak outright, but behind them, those discussions would still continue. Probably then, their words would be even worse.
Zong Shou clenched his fists. He didn't think that the unity of the Common People's Vast Habitat had reached such a stage…
It seems like the Taoist Faction using their strength to threaten was coming into effect.
People were just like that, they only saw Wei Xu's mistakes that had caused this crisis for the Common People's Path.
