Free Web NovelChapter 1153: Chapter 1153: What Is Dragon God Sect to Us?
A tall, skinny old man in black stood up and said with piercing eyes, "Sect Master, for tens of thousands of years, no one in our Slaughter Sword Sect has ever mastered the Ninth Sword. What qualifications does this young man have to catch the Sect Master’s eye?"
"A feeling."
The square-faced old man in black clasped his hands behind his back and smiled leisurely.
This feeling is very mysterious.
It seems as if this black-clad youth is a supreme Sword Dao uncarved gem sent from Heaven; with just a little polishing, he could cultivate into the Ninth Sword.
"Haha, since the Sect Master sees great potential in this young man, then I shall go out and bring him under our Slaughter Sword Sect’s wing!"
The tall, skinny old man said.
"Good!"
The square-faced old man in black waved his hand with a relaxed smile, "Let’s go together."
Go together?
The faces of the other seven black-clad old men all showed expressions of shock.
They were the eight strongest individuals of the Slaughter Sword Sect.
And each of them had an Eternal Realm cultivation base, with the lowest at Eternal Realm Level Seven.
Eight Eternal Realm experts personally going out to welcome a young man at Heavenly Fate Realm Level Eight—
Such high treatment! freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Elders, if he cultivates the Ninth Sword, our Slaughter Sword Sect can emerge in Cangnan Continent."
The square-faced old man in black gave a profound smile, looking at everyone, he said, "Do you all remember that prophecy?"
The seven black-clad old men, upon hearing this, began to glance at each other.
That phrase, they naturally knew very well.
It was passed down by the founder ancestor of the Slaughter Sword Sect—the Empress of Slaughter.
"When the Nine Swords are complete, the world shall be at peace."
The tall, skinny old man, straightforwardly, was the first to voice the prophecy.
At this moment, he was emotionally charged, clenching his fists, he trembled as he said, "Sect Master, our Slaughter Sword Sect has been dormant for tens of thousands of years, is it finally time for us to move forward?"
The other six black-clad old men all looked equally excited.
"Exactly, once the Ninth Sword is cultivated, and the Nine Swords are reunited, not even the top Eternal Sects will be our match!"
The square-faced old man in black now exuded an aura of pride. He raised his arm high, swung it forcefully, and loudly said, "Once the Nine Swords are complete, our Slaughter Sword Sect will rule the world! Every Eternal Sect shall be trampled beneath our feet!"
"Our Slaughter Sword Sect shall unify the Cangnan Continent!"
The tall, skinny old man exclaimed excitedly.
All other six gray-clad old men followed suit with an enthusiastic shout.
Everyone’s emotions were agitated, as if decades of pent-up frustration found a release at this moment.
After a while.
Everyone’s emotions finally calmed down.
After all, they had lived for thousands of years, their minds more mature, quickly regaining their rationality once emotions were vented.
"Sect Master, unfortunately, the Dragon God Sect was already destroyed, our Empress of Slaughter ancestor’s revenge may never be fulfilled!"
The tall, skinny old man in black seemed to recall something, sighed with a face full of lament.
"What’s a mere Dragon God Sect!
A hundred thousand years ago, our Empress of Slaughter ancestor never considered the Dragon God Sect a threat, the only concern was the Dragon God Sect’s thirteenth Sect Master!"
The square-faced old man in black, with a wary gaze, coldly snorted.
"I remember... That thirteenth Sect Master was called Ye Yun, he died mysteriously in his twenties; truly Heaven has eyes! It’s indirectly avenging our Empress of Slaughter ancestor!"
A black-clad old man suddenly laughed loudly.
"Hahaha..."
Everyone laughed along.
Ye Yun, the thirteenth Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect, although he once defeated the Empress of Slaughter and even sealed her away.
In reality.
This villainous character met a bad end.
He lived only until just over twenty years old, then mysteriously died suddenly.
At the time, many people clapped in delight.
"Sect Master, is the Empress of Slaughter ancestor... still in the Divine Land?"
The tall, skinny black-clad old man couldn’t help but ask.
This secret, they as the core elders of the sect also did not know, or perhaps never dared to ask.
Today the situation was a bit special, the Sect Master was in good spirits, thus he dared to ask.
"Most likely so, sixty thousand years ago when the Empress of Slaughter ancestor escaped, she did not explain much to the Sect Master of the time and drifted away, no one knows where she went..."
The square-faced old man in black sighed.
"The later Sect Master also did not explain much, maintaining silence over the matter, leaving the whereabouts of the Empress of Slaughter ancestor unknown to me as well!"
Seeing everyone’s serious expression, the square-faced black-clad old man added.
"Sect Master, when the Empress of Slaughter ancestor escaped, was her cultivation base already at True God?"
The tall, skinny black-clad old man curiously asked.
"Supposedly, but the Empress of Slaughter ancestor never displayed her cultivation, and later Sect Masters could only guess, forming such an idea."
The square-faced black-clad old man nodded.
At this moment, another black-clad old man enviously said, "True God! I wonder if we could break through to this realm in our lifetime!"
"Let me share some good news with you."
The square-faced black-clad old man said with a mysterious look.
"Sect Master, what is the good news?"
Everyone looked bewildered, eagerly asking.
The square-faced black-clad old man smiled and said, "Years ago, the Empress of Slaughter ancestor once stated, once the Ninth Sword is mastered, and each person reaches the peak of Eternal Realm Level Ten, they can venture upon the Ancient Road to Heaven, with a high success rate!"
"Is that so?"
The seven black-clad old men, upon hearing this, looked even more excited than before.
As long as they pass the Ancient Road to Heaven, they can enter the mysterious and vast Divine Land.
There, the seas are broad enough for fish to leap, the skies extensive enough for birds to fly, marking the beginning of a new era of cultivation.
This grand and heroic cultivation life is something they have always sought.
This is more enticing than dominating the Cangnan Continent.
"Sect Master, that youngster is only at Destiny Realm now, still far from Eternal Realm, who knows when he will reach it..."
The tall, skinny black-clad old man said with a bitter smile.
"No worries, the Empress of Slaughter ancestor left behind a Life-taking Puppet; once someone masters the Ninth Sword and imbues it with Sword Intent, it can be fully activated. It’s said this puppet possesses a True God’s prowess, ensuring our safety as we pass the Ancient Road to Heaven!"
The square-faced black-clad old man laughed.
Whoosh... He swung his hand forcefully, and a red puppet appeared before everyone.
This puppet was a female with a mask on her face, standing frozen in mid-air like a clay sculpture.
The puppet bore no fluctuation of cultivation, it resembled a wooden post stuck there.
The seven black-clad old men gazed at it, their eyes growing brighter, unable to help but praise in admiration.
This is a True God-stage puppet.
While not yet activated, it instilled limitless hope into everyone.
"The Empress of Slaughter ancestor is indeed benevolent!"
The square-faced old man in black sighed, his gaze compassionate, he softly spoke, "If our Slaughter Sword Sect encounters danger, injecting eight types of Sword Intent into the puppet can activate part of its prowess. It will then wield the Ninth Sword and fight alongside us to obliterate strong enemies..."
Upon hearing the Sect Master’s words.
The remaining black-clad old men were simultaneously stunned.
Inside each person’s heart, an indescribable sense of emotion surged.
