C592 To Comprehend the Sword
Outside the Sword Prison.
Yan Qiling stood with his hands behind his back. Occasionally, he would look at the small mountain that was changing. When he was bored, he smiled at Qi Hongyi and asked, "Sister Hongyi, what are you doing here?"
When they were in the Forgotten Ruins, Qi Hongyi, Golden Fiend, and Tong Laoqian came together. After learning about the Silvermoon Queen's and Shen Feiqing's plans, Qi Hongyi turned her back on them and fought alongside Yu Yuan, Yan Qiling, and Yu Zhu.
The two of them were old friends.
Qi Hongyi, who was holding the lute, had an indifferent expression on her face. When she met Shen Feiqing's gaze, she didn't do anything else.
Seeing that Yan Qiling was asking about something, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm here to bring my master away."
"Your master?" Yan Qiling was surprised.
Qi Hongyi pointed at the Sword Prison and said, "He's imprisoned inside."
Yan Qiling recalled her background and instantly understood. "So that's how it is."
Qi Hongyi came from the Songbird Empire and was the beloved daughter of a prime minister. In the struggle for power, the old prime minister failed and was killed by a general. She was implicated and her soul was taken away.
She was not dead. Rumor had it that someone saved her. Thirty years later, she appeared with the lute in her arms and exterminated the entire family of the general.
After that, Qi Hongyi escaped into the Forgotten Ruins and cultivated the strange spell.
Her master had never told anyone about her, nor did anyone know about her.
Now that she was saved, the master who had taught her the strange spell should also be an evil demon magnate who was imprisoned in the Sword Prison of the Extraterrestrial.
"My master was captured and imprisoned in the Sword Prison while he was traveling in the Extraterrestrial Star River." Qi Hongyi explained, "It has been many years since then. It's a pity that I am still too inexperienced and my abilities are not enough to save him. I came here after hearing the news. I was just taking a ride. I took my master, who was imprisoned in the Sword Prison, away from the Marsh."
After she finished speaking, Yan Qiling nodded slightly and said, "You did the right thing."
Qi Hongyi's master saved her from the Songbird Empire when she was about to die and taught her the evil magic arts to help her take revenge. Qi Hongyi remembered this kindness and would naturally repay it when the time came.
"Mr. Yan, why are you here?" Qi Hongyi was curious. "I heard that Mr. Yan helped Yu Yuan suppress the things under the Soulforge Pool when we were in the Moonfall Sanctuary?"
Shen Feiqing, Tan Yuan, and Zhao Jie all looked over when they heard this.
They had only heard about a few secrets, but they did not know the details.
She glanced at Shen Feiqing and Tan Yuan, then chuckled and said, "I think it's right to resist the devils outside. The Sky Fiend that is suppressed under the Soulforge Pool is the Sky Fiend that is causing trouble for the mortals of Everlands. As for me, although I was also rejected by the three upper sects and imprisoned in the Moonfall Sanctuary by the Devil Palace, I am still a person of this world."
"I will not hesitate to face the enemy." He looked at the Sword Prison and said, "The people inside are not Sky Fiends from the extraterrestrial, nor are they Otherkin from the starry sky. All of them are evil devils from the Everlands. They were recognized as evil devils by the three upper sects, Devil Palace, and Shadow's Keep. They are essentially no different from me."
"Internal disputes are not outside. I am only doing my best to exchange for something. It is not against the principles."
He had said this to Shen Feiqing and Tan Yuan.
Shen Feiqing and the Silvermoon Queen were the ones who made him despise them. The reason why he wanted to ruin their plans was because these two ambitious women planned to awaken the Shura in the Dark Realm and let him live in the Forgotten Ruins.
The Shura in the Dark Realm was an Otherkin in the Star River. It was not the same species as the Everlands.
"My Nightbane Sect is also outside."
Zhao Jie pursed her lips and smiled. She bowed to Yan Qiling from afar and then said to Tan Yuan, "Friends are friends. It is righteous to help one another. If I was in the Forgotten Ruins and knew that Commander Shen and Lee Yupan were going to release the Shura in the Dark Realm, I would have done my best to stop them."
Tan Yuan snorted and did not say anything.
Shen Feiqing, who was the one who was involved in this, said with a dark expression, "We have our reasons!"
She did not want to say anything more.
At this moment, the old man who was maintaining the stability of the space above the Sword Prison suddenly changed his expression and shouted, "Mr. Yan, please lend me a hand!"
Everyone's gaze instantly gathered on the Sword Prison.
They saw sharp sword lights shooting out from the mouth of the cave that looked like a honeycomb.
The cultivator of the Great Cultivator of Sword Prison, the sword's will, could cut through space. Once it left the cave in the Sword Prison, everyone could see the space around the Sword Prison ripple. Occasionally, there would be a narrow space rift that tore open, revealing a deathly silence, coldness, and endless desolation.
The dense space rift flowed with the sword's will and sword light, causing the space to become extremely fragile.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The ground of the Sword Prison rumbled from the depths, as if the foundation of the world was about to explode because of the flow of the sword's will and sword light.
The old man who was sitting on a small shrinking table with his hands forming a seal shouted with a serious expression, "Mr. Yan, if this little world that is pulled into the marsh is pierced through, the aura of the Sword Prison will be released. If the aura of the Sword Prison is released by the three great upper sects, the Devil Palace, and the Shadow's Keep, we all know what the consequences will be."
"What did you promise me?" Yan Qiling looked at the white-robed old man.
"I'll fulfill it right away!" The master said.
"Alright!"
Yan Qiling's figure flashed and appeared above the Sword Prison. With a wave of his hand, a black-and-white chessboard appeared.
As soon as the chessboard appeared, the space rifts that had split open quickly closed up.
"Sword Prison, why is there such a huge commotion?"
Loong Yang, who was standing on the small sedan, felt the aura of the drop of dragon blood disappear. She started to worry about her father's safety, the ninth level old dragon.
"Yu Yuan has successfully broken through to the Subtlety." The master of this room smiled and said.
Teng!
The dark green Frozen Flames suddenly started to burn furiously. The woman who had recently become famous in the world seemed to have changed her emotions again.
The wrinkled old woman from the Nightbane Sect frowned slightly, and doubts began to rise in her heart.
"Didn't the Star-Spawned Terror have already been attached to Lin Zhuyun? How could a cold-blooded and ruthless foreign creature change its mind because of Yu Yuan, who is not related to it?"
...
There were no demons or monsters in the empty stone cave.
Yu Yuan sat upright with his sword sheath in one hand as he immersed himself in his thoughts.
In an instant, his spiritual sense was like water as it flowed to the sword scar imprinted on the arm bone. He immediately started to comprehend the swordsmanship hidden in the sword scar.
Sizzle!
Wisps of sword light shot out from the stone path and flew around the cave.
When his thoughts and consciousness experienced the profoundness of the swordsmanship, the soul formed from the three souls of heaven, earth and man in his Mindscape underwent a change.
Wisps of his spiritual sense flowed away.
A moment later, he felt tired. His Heart Lake moved, and he woke up.
"Comprehending the sword will consume the spiritual sense. Once I break through to the Lunar Spirit, my spiritual sense will be refined into remnant soul, which will consume Soul Power." He naturally understood the reason and the key to this.
"Ah!"
When he looked down, he noticed a sword light flying into the sword sheath!
He immediately summoned a wisp of his spiritual sense and carefully observed it.
The bottom of the sword sheath was filled with the sword intent and sword radiance!
In the Forgotten Ruins, in order to deal with the remnant soul of the Dark Realm's Shura, he had consumed a lot of sword light and sword's will. Later on, he had also borrowed the power from the sword sheath in the Embers Sea.
The power of the sword light that could not be revived had long since been exhausted, and there was not much left.
Now, there was a new sword light and sword's will that appeared at the bottom of the sword sheath!
He didn't even need to think about it. He knew that the new sword light and sword's will came from the Sword Prison where he was!
When he was comprehending the swordsmanship of the arm bone, when his mind was immersed in it, there would be sword's will and sword light gathering by themselves, and some would settle in the sword sheath.
The sword light and sword's will mixed together could be seen as a unique energy. This Sword Prison was intertwined in the middle of the stone path, and all the energy was at the entrance of the caves.
It was because of the existence of this energy that it was impossible for Loong Jie, Zhongli Dapan, and the other evil demons to escape from the Sword Prison.
"The reason why I came to the Godsblight Marsh was because the Python Queen was entrusted by the Shadow's Keep. The Shadow's Keep was also persuaded by the master of this place to convince an important figure of the Shadow's Keep. So, the reason why I came here was because I was specially arranged. Because I have the sword spirit of the cultivator of the Great Cultivator of the Moon Slayer and the sword sheath!"
Yu Yuan's mind changed slightly.
"He knows that when I reached the Subtlety Stage, my spiritual sense condensed and I could comprehend the profoundness of the swordsmanship. He also knows that during the process of comprehending, sword's will and sword light would enter the sword sheath. Over time, the power of those magnates and goast would all flow into the sword sheath and no longer have any effect of restraining."
"Those who are restricted will naturally be able to leave the Sword Prison!"
When he thought about it, Yu Yuan knew that Zhongli Dapan's help and the mysterious master had a tacit understanding with each other.
"What should I do?"
If he continued to comprehend the swordsmanship, he would be constantly gathering sword's will and sword light in the process of comprehending. In the end, even the Forbidden Person in the Sword Prison would be able to walk out of it smoothly.
If he didn't comprehend the sword spell, he could also walk out of the Sword Prison with the sword sheath in his hand.
However, he would have to face the white-robed man and Chen Qingyan, who might be killed on the spot.
"The people that are prohibited from entering the Sword Prison are Zhongli Dapan and Loong Jie. These people are not from the extraterrestrial Otherkin." Yu Yuan pondered for a long time and took a deep breath. He made a decision.
He decided to continue to comprehend the sword in the Sword Prison, disregarding the sword's will and sword light.
When he did so, the Sword Prison became extremely unstable, and the sword's will and sword light shot out.
Yan Qiling and that person worked together to stabilize the situation.
A few days later, no sword's will or sword light flew out from the Sword Prison.
The owner of the white robe looked at the Sword Prison that was filled with sword's wil and sword's will. He smiled and said, "I like smart people and young people who are smart."
He could tell Yu Yuan's decision.
