As the Universe Turns - Chapter 578
Chapter 578 Legend of the Mysterious Armament
Hua Weiyang listened intently and remained silent. Su Ye paused for a moment before continuing, “Afterwards, the Ten Directions Ancient Array collapsed, and the six great ancient races disappeared without a trace. Six peerless profound weapons also disappeared from the mortal world. That era was annihilated. Many years later, everything happened again, but not many people knew that there were still six peerless profound weapons in this world …”
After hearing what he said, Xiao Chen gradually fell into deep thought. In this world, there were actually so many things that had happened before, but now, the world was still arguing endlessly with Immortals and Devils …
“This first profound weapon is the Emperor’s Sword. Then … what about the other five peerless profound weapons? What are the differences?” Xiao Chen looked up at Su Ye and asked.
“The other five …”
Su Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly as he said, “The other five peerless profound weapons are the Wheel to Break Fiends, the Bloodstained Blade, the Chain of Confinement, the Nether Blade, and the Black Tortoise Shield …”
After saying that, Su Ye paused for a moment and turned to look at the two of them. “The Wheel of Demon Breaking is called the ‘Evil Moon’. It can destroy all the Evil Demon Qi in the world, but its own Evil Demon Qi is also extremely heavy. The Blade of Dyed Blood is called the ‘Eternal Hatred’. It once stained the mountains and rivers with blood. It is a profound weapon with extremely heavy killing intent.”
“The chain of imprisonment is called ‘Heavenly Punishment’. It possesses unparalleled power of imprisonment. Once imprisoned by it, it will last forever. Not even the soul can escape.”
“The Nether Blade is called the ‘Ghost Mist’. It can penetrate the Nether, break through all the barriers in the world, and be killed by the Ghost Mist. The soul will be forbidden from entering the Reincarnation Realm forever, and it will be difficult to enter the Reincarnation Realm again.”
“The Black Tortoise Shield is called ‘Yue Yuan’. It possesses the power of the Black Tortoise and can withstand the attacks of all weapons and magic treasures in the world …”
Su Ye said the other five peerless profound weapons one by one.
Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed as he muttered to himself, “Di Gu, Xie Yue, Chang Hen, Tian Punishment, Ghost Mist, Yue Yuan … These are the six peerless profound weapons of the Primordial Era.”
At this point, he looked at the ancient sword in front of him and slowly said, “And this sword is the Emperor’s Sword … Di Gu.”
“That’s right.”
Su Ye put his hands on his chest and looked at him. He said, “The Di Gu Sword possesses endless power that can threaten the world. There are rumors that the person who obtained the Di Gu Sword obtained the world by pursuing the sword at all costs … However, the person who obtained the Di Gu Sword often ends up alone. The people around him will all die one by one. That’s why the sword is called Di Gu.”
At this point, Su Ye pointed at the ancient sword and said indifferently, “If you don’t believe me, go and see if there is a bloody scar on the sword.”
Hearing this, Xiao Chen immediately walked over and looked carefully. Sure enough, he found a faint bloody scar on the sword’s body.
Su Ye said, “Many years ago, an emperor did not hesitate to obtain this sword, but in the end, he used it to commit suicide on himself, leaving behind this bloody mark …”
“Ah …”
Hearing this, Hua Weiyang finally couldn’t help but cry out in shock. At this moment, his face was filled with astonishment, “Isn’t this sword also the most vicious sword in the world? If I want to watch the people around me die one by one, then I would rather not use this supreme power …”
“Heh …”
Su Ye smiled coldly, as if he was laughing at her innocence. “So what if it’s a vicious sword? How many people have begged for it since ancient times? What do you know about the power of the sword? And how many people lost their lives for it? Even if everyone rebelled and was lonely, who had ever retreated a step back?”
“But …”
Before Hua Weiyang could argue with him, the entire ancient palace suddenly trembled violently, and dust fell. Xiao Chen had walked to the sword at some unknown time and reached out to hold it on the hilt.
The moment he reached out to hold the sword, the entire ancient palace began to tremble. It was as if a power that had been silent for tens of thousands of years had revived. At this moment, it was finally about to see the light of day again.
“Idiot … what are you doing!”
Hua Weiyang couldn’t help but be stunned. Su Ye’s expression also became serious. “Brat, you actually managed to move Di Gu. Could it be …”
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Chen unexpectedly picked up Di Gu. At this moment, a strong wind surged in the Ancient Palace, and an imperial aura that intimidated the world emanated from the sword!
“Brat, you …”
Even Su Ye couldn’t believe that he had actually moved this Di Gu that had been quiet for tens of thousands of years.
At this moment, the sword was in his hand, and the dust was gone. The rays of sharp light surrounded his body, giving him the aura of an emperor descending into the world!
“Di Gu …”
Xiao Chen slowly stretched out his hand and gently stroked the sword. The sword immediately let out a soft cry. This sword was a peerless ancient profound weapon that already possessed a sword soul. Just because he was able to pick up Di Gu now did not mean that he could use Di Gu’s strength.
If he couldn’t use Di Gu’s power, even if he had a profound weapon in his hand, it would be no different from an ordinary sword. On the contrary, it would bring him endless calamity.
At this moment, a complicated expression appeared in his eyes. Every time he thought about what had happened back then, what had happened in the Central Plains, and what had happened in Ning Village, the hatred and hostility in his heart would greatly increase. There was even a faint mist of blood flowing around his body. It was such an extremely heavy hatred and hostility that it could actually resonate with Di Gu at this moment!
Su Ye looked at him and said, “Little brat, have you thought it through? Let this sword merge with your primordial spirit, let it recognize you as your master, and you can use the power of this sword. As long as your primordial spirit is not extinguished, then this sword will not leave you for a day. No one can take away this sword … But, if you obtain this sword, you must bear its weight. Have you really thought it through clearly?”
“Idiot …”
Hua Weiyang’s face was slightly shocked. Although she knew that Di Gu was extremely powerful and could easily break through the cracks in the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm and rescue Xian Shu and the others from inside, once this sword fused with his origin soul, it would never leave him unless his origin soul perished.
However, with such a vicious sword by his side, if the rumors were true, those who possessed this sword would all die one by one, leaving him alone in the end …
Even the emperor who had risked everything to obtain this sword had ended up committing suicide with this sword. One could imagine what kind of peerless vicious sword this was.
Although these six peerless profound weapons all possessed heaven-defying power, they ultimately led to the destruction of the six great ancient races. No matter how powerful these profound weapons were, they were still extremely vicious creatures. In the end, they would only bring destruction. At least, that was what she thought at this moment.
“I’ve thought it through.”
Xiao Chen looked at the Di Gu Sword in front of him. His expression was extremely calm. He wanted to take the sword away not only because of the power of the sword, but also because of the inexplicable and unexplainable … the same loneliness and loneliness.
He didn’t know why, but from the moment he first entered and saw this sword, he had a feeling of deja vu in his heart. That feeling of loneliness and incomprehension seemed to be something that only the sword in front of him, which had been silent for tens of thousands of years, could tell him.
