The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 101
Chapter 101 Heavenly Saber Origin
Li Qing was a little curious, “In today’s world, are there any experts who can contend against the heavenly devil ape whose strength is greatly damaged?”
Elder Liu said, “I’m not too sure about this either. People at that level are simply too high-end. I can’t guess. However, the Heavenspan Devil Ape’s strength has greatly decreased and is no longer as glorious as it was in the ancient times. Even if the experts of the present world cannot defeat it alone, those two or three are still enough, right?”
The era of the Heavenly Devil Ape had already passed. It was no longer the ancient era of ruling over all demons and ruling over the earth.
This is the age of mankind.
The human race had developed to this point, and it was already extremely prosperous. There were countless experts, and the first-rate large sects had their own bases. Even if there were no more Daofathers like him, they could still kill the Heavenly Devil Ape by relying on numbers.
Li Qing said, “However, these experts are scattered all over the world. They are far away. It will probably take a long time for them to arrive. After such a long period of time, the Heavenspan Devil Ape has already caused great damage.”
Elder Liu said, “The appearance of the demonic ape will definitely shake the heavens and the earth. The news will spread throughout the world very quickly. The top experts should know about this very soon. Furthermore, we have made preparations beforehand. The Peak Master has already sent a letter to the sacred land of the Southern Domain, the War God Heavenly Palace, requesting them to take action.”
“Holy Land of the Southern Domain, War God Heavenly Palace!” Li Qing muttered to himself. He truly had a thunderous reputation for this sect. It was created by one of the Four Gods, the War God. The sacred land in this world had a deep foundation, and there must be a supreme expert at that level in the world.
“The War God Heavenly Palace will forever suppress the Southern Wilderness and resist the barbarians. Its strength is strong. Since there are experts from the War God Heavenly Palace helping, then don’t worry, they should be safe.” Li Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
Elder Liu warned, “Send someone to invite the experts of the War God Heavenly Palace. It’s just that we, Flaming Sun Peak, have done it privately. Remember not to spread it out.”
“Why?” Li Qing was puzzled. Could it be that he had to sneak around in this matter as well?
“Think about it, if the experts of the War God Heavenly Palace come over and see eight Dao Artifacts appear, they might have to take a few from them. I’m afraid that the people of the other peaks will not be willing to suffer such a loss.”
That was a Dao Artifact, and without one, one would feel extremely distressed. Who would be willing to share such benefits with others?
Most of the people from the Eight Peaks wanted to take it all, so they secretly took away eight Dao Artifacts and quickly left. Even if the demonic ape was born, they had already escaped early. Who cared about the monstrous floods behind them?
“They are really too selfish.” Li Qing sighed and said worriedly, “However, if others find out about this, will they cause trouble?”
“It doesn’t matter. We in Flaming Sun Peak are not afraid of them. The eight peaks are not under our control. What reason do they have to make trouble?” Elder Liu didn’t mind.
However, Li Qing was still worried. In times of peace, there is nothing others can do about it. However, at this time of great changes in the sect, any small matter would be magnified. Perhaps it would be exploited by someone with a heart.
He suddenly had a feeling that a storm was coming, and the heavens and earth would change drastically.
Elder Liu asked, “Alright, after saying so much, have you already understood the background? Is there anything else you want to ask?”
Li Qing and Liu Ke’er shook their heads and said, “Nothing.”
“Since you don’t have any, then you can go back first.”
Immediately, the two bid farewell and left.
…
After knowing the truth in their hearts, they calmed down and did not worry about being afraid anymore.
Li Qing returned to his residence and recalled what he had seen and heard today. He couldn’t help but sink into deep thought.
“I already know the origin of the Eternal Demon Abyss. Then, since the Heavenly Saber has such a deep connection with the Eternal Demon Abyss, what is the origin of the Heavenly Saber?” He was speculating in his heart, thinking of all sorts of possibilities.
He suddenly had a bad premonition. Could it be that the origin of the Heavenly Saber was related to the Demon Ancestor or the Heavenspan Demon Ape?
If that was the case, then the problem would be too serious.
Li Qing took a long breath and muttered to himself, “The Heavenly Devil Ape is a demonic beast. It is impossible to use a saber. In that case, it can only belong to the Demon Ancestor. If the Heavenly Saber is really the weapon of the Demon Ancestor, wouldn’t it mean that the Heavenly Saber is a demon saber?”
The Ancestor of All Fiends, the Ancestor of the Devil Dao, what does the weapon he used represent? Li Qing didn’t dare to imagine.
“If that’s the case, then what should we do?” He was very embarrassed. If it was really the Devil Saber, how could a righteous person like him use such a weapon?
Such a demonic saber had experienced countless bloodshed and slaughter. It was simply too terrifying.
“The matter hasn’t been confirmed yet. I can’t doubt the Heavenly Saber just like that. Besides, the Demon Ancestor’s background is so great. How could the weapon he used fall into my hands? It must be impossible!” He didn’t want to believe it.
“Besides, Heavenly Saber has followed me for so long and saved my life countless times. Why should I abandon it like this?”
He suddenly stood up and made a decision in his heart. He thought to himself, “If the Heavenly Saber is really the weapon of the Demon Ancestor, then it must be recorded in the ancient records. I just need to go and check it!”
Previously, he had only heard of the name of the Demon Ancestor, so he had some basic understanding of it. However, more specific deeds weren’t clear.
After all, he hadn’t specifically investigated it, so how could he possibly know it in too much detail?
Now, he planned to get a better understanding of the life and deeds of the Demon Ancestor and see if there were any records of the Heavenly Saber.
There are so many ancient books in the Eight Desolate Sect, some of which are extremely ancient. From the ancient times until now, it should be related to them, and they should be able to find clues of this kind.
Thus, he immediately arrived at the place where Yan Yang Peak was collecting books, the Spring and Autumn Pavilion.
The Spring and Autumn Pavilion was filled with ordinary books. There were no cultivation technique manuals. Everyone could enter at will, but they could not take away the books inside.
The Eight Desolate Sect has been handed down from ancient times until now, and there are countless ancient books and records hidden within. Countless ancient secrets may be hidden within them, waiting for people to discover them.
The Spring and Autumn Pavilion had nine floors, each of which was filled with books, like an ocean of books. It would not be easy for Li Qing to find traces of the Demon Ancestor in this sea of books.
He plunged into the pile of books and began to flip through the books.
…
In the past few days, the entire Eight Desolate Sect had a big commotion. The higher-ups of the sect had announced to the crowd that the Eight Desolate Mountain was about to be destroyed due to the changes in the Eternal Demon Abyss. The sect needed to move to a new place.
The moment this news came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Although everyone had many bad guesses after experiencing the terrifying phenomena from before, they didn’t expect the result to be so serious. The Eight Desolate Mountains were about to be destroyed!
The Eight Desolate Mountains, which had stood for countless years, were destroyed just like that. It was truly unbelievable.
“How can we abandon our homeland!”
Some people had lived here all their lives and had long regarded the Eight Desolate Mountains as their homeland. It was truly unacceptable for them to suddenly leave now.
They all asked the reason, wanting to know why the Eternal Demon Abyss had undergone such a change, and if there was any solution.
However, the higher-ups did not give an answer and only made everyone obey the arrangements. They kept quiet about the secret of the Eternal Demon Abyss.
Everyone was extremely dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do. It’s impossible to insist on staying in the Eight Desolate Mountains and waiting for death, right?
All of a sudden, everyone was in a panic, and no one was in the mood to cultivate anymore.
The time of their departure had been announced. Ten days later, everyone would move away from this place together.
In these ten days, everyone had to pack their things and gather at the Eight Desolates Square below.
…
Just as everyone was worried about this matter, Li Qing had been searching the endless books in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion for traces of the Demon Ancestor.
He had found many deeds of the Demon Ancestor, such as the Demon Ancestor crossing the fifth level of the lightning tribulation in a row, several battles between the Demon Dao and the Daofather, the process of the Demon Ancestor and the Heavenspan Demon Ape becoming good friends, and so on.
These deeds were all related to the Demon Ancestor, but there were no traces of the Heavenly Saber at all. Moreover, these descriptions were very vague. They were just a few sentences, and no conclusions could be deduced.
Li Qing did not give up. He believed that he would definitely find the answer.
Finally, a few days later, in a book so old that it was almost shattered, he found the following passage:
“After the Devil Ancestor completed his Dao, he obtained the Heavenly Falling Stone and extracted a purple metal. It was cast into a devil saber in the volcano crater of the Southern Domain. This saber was simple, blunt, and unremarkable, but it was invincible. It could tear through space.”
Seeing this, Li Qing’s face was pale, and he immediately had an answer in his heart.
Purple metal, magic saber, simple, blunt, unremarkable!
How similar was this to the Heavenly Saber!
Was it all a coincidence?
