Worlds’ Apocalypse Online - Chapter 67
Chapter 67: Sword Spirit
As he listened, Gu Qing Shan just stood in place.
This sword has so much history?
I only wanted to choose a suitable weapon for myself, how did I not only accidentally choose Her Eminence’s old sword, but also one with such a rich history?
The Saint’s expression doesn’t seem like she was upset or anything like that, rather it was more like a sense of relief.
With a wave of her hand, Bai Hua Fairy had the Earth Sword fly from Gu Qing Shan’s hand to the Ten-thousand Flower Throne.
She then proceeded to use Lock Seals to obscure the entire flower fountain together with her throne, going out of Gu Qing Shan’s sight.
She lightly stroked the sword and softly spoke: “You are so powerful that with you alone, he will be able to win against most enemies, how could he grow that way?”
A deep as mountain voice was heard from the sword: “I will seal my full strength away, as he increases his cultivation, I will unlock a bit more each time, only until he reaches Ascension will he unlock all of my power ”
Bai Hua Fairy said: “Then there will be no problem”
“Take care” she said
” You take care as well. You know that the events of that time weren’t your fault ” the deep voice said.
Bai Hua Fairy wanted to, but couldn’t laugh, only replied: “The sect is already no longer here. Go, go create a new history”
The sword floated into the air, rested the hilt on Bai Hua Fairy’s shoulder for a bit before slowly floated away.
Bai Hua Fairy swung her hand to undo the Lock Seals.
The Earth sword quickly flew back into Gu Qing Shan’s hands.
“This sword’s power is too vast, so in order to prevent others from greed, I have put Lock Seals on it” Bai Hua Fairy said to Gu Qing Shan.
Then as if she suddenly remembered something, she added: “A Qi Training realm cultivator can only unleash up to 30,000 tons of power”
“Thank you Saint” Gu Qing Shan nodded as he thanked her.
He also understood that Bai Hua Fairy’s action was for his own good.
If a weapon is too strong, the sword cultivator will become reliant on it, making their skills harder to improve.
Furthermore, even 30,000 tons of force was already very strong, it could be considered top-notch within the ranks of weapons usable by Qi Training realm cultivators.
Bai Hua Fairy looked a bit at the youth, then at the sword in his hand and suddenly thought of something.
Opening her jade-white hands, she formed a hand seal.
Outside Bai Hua capital city, inside a certain rice field, a pig disappeared.
At the forked road, the white goose standing on the green rock that was still shouting loudly: “Do not rush, line up, next person”
Suddenly, the white goose disappeared, making the waiting cultivators go into an uproar.
Bai Hua Fairy’s hand seals didn’t change as her spirit energy continued to flow.
On the river, inside a new wooden boat, the old ferryman disappeared.
Bai Hua Fairy continued.
Inside Bai Hua Palace, a female maid disappeared.
She closed her eyes, as numerous pictures were being displayed in her mind.
“How clever, just like myself back then” she muttered.
She remembered that she was only 18 back then, after stealing her senior brother’s Spirit talisman, she snuck into the Secret Library and learned all 3 of the sect’s strongest scriptures.
As the elders wanted to punish her, she quoted the sect’s constitution ——whoever can master all three of the sect’s Secret Arts will become a candidate for the next generation’s sect master and never to be touched.
When the elders didn’t believe her, she used all three of them one after another.
Back then, all the elders’ faces were especially interesting.
Remembering old memories, Bai Hua Fairy’s melancholic mood improved somewhat.
Seeing Gu Qing Shan’s performance on his way here, Bai Hua Fairy was even more pleased.
Gu Qing Shan naturally knew what she was doing, but his face remained unchanged and stood silently, waiting for her decision.
Because Bai Hua Fairy had a certain Divine Skill.
[One As Ten Million ].
Among all Divine Skills, this one was particularly high-ranked.
As soon as someone sets foot into Bai Hua Immortal country, every person they meet on the way, every animal, any and all of them could be Bai Hua Fairy’s clones.
A bird in the sky, a normal citizen on the streets, a servant in an official’s estate, the bellboy and owner of an inn, even deep underground, in an ancient ruin, as long as it’s still in Bai Hua Immortal country, even a hibernating snake or an ant that’s crawling on the ground could be her.
Almost every single creature here was her clone.
In the past life, after she used all her strength to take on and push back the whole demon army, with a look of regret, her body went into a crack in Space as she left the world to reincarnate.
As she left, the entire Bai Hua country disappeared with her, leaving only cultivators who came to attempt Bai Hua lists.
It was then that everyone understood that within Bai Hua Immortal country, the only ones who weren’t her clones were her disciples.
No one knew why Bai Hua Fairy did what she did, since she was already at peak Sainted realm, many cultivators suspected that she did it in order to find out the secret to breaking through Sainted realm.
Because of this, if any cultivators who went here to attempt a Bai Hua list showed even the tiniest action that displeased Bai Hua Fairy, they would be immediately found out.
And this is also the reason why Bai Hua Fairy took in very few disciples.
“I have a very important question that I want to ask you right now” Bai Hua Fairy spoke.
Gu Qing Shan answered: “Please go ahead, your Eminence”
As Bai Hua Fairy looked at Gu Qing Shan from above, her face showed no emotion, and asked: “Are there any other people in your family? Why did you join the army?”
As soon as Bai Hua Fairy finished asking, she had already secretly used a hand seal in her sleeves.
No lies can ever fool her.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t think that she would ask this, but with just a single thought, he decided against lying.
One of Bai Hua Fairy’s clones herself said that he can’t fool her with lies.
A Saint will always have a way that you can’t imagine to find out the truth.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then cleverly answered: “This humble one’s parents died in an accident at a young age, so I had to struggle alone all these years. In this chaotic age of war against the demons, I joined the army to learn and to become stronger so that I can survive”
What he said here included his life on both worlds, yet at the same time formed a clear picture of a single life.
As Bai Hua Fairy looked at him, the spirit energy wave she received from her hand seal also didn’t show any falsehood.
He was able to say it so simply, but all of it was the truth.
No one knows that Bai Hua Fairy herself was also an orphan.
After she became a Saint, she had hidden away both her background and past experiences, so that no one can ever check on it and find her weakness.
Bai Hua Fairy’s expression relaxed, even her eyes held a bit more closeness than before.
“If it’s as you said, then you’re an orphan” she purposefully asked “This Saint is curious , how does it feel to struggle to survive, alone?”
Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused, not knowing why the Saint would ask this, but he still answered seriously.
This time, he didn’t even need to think too much before answering.
Recalling all the times of bitterness and struggle, Gu Qing Shan naturally replied: “To be alone in this world, the upside is that I never have to worry about someone else being sad and mourn my death”
Bai Hua Fairy didn’t comment on it, only asked: “The downside?”
Gu Qing Shan smiled and answered: “There are 2 downsides, one is that no matter if I’m eating, fighting, or cultivating, I’ll always be outnumbered”
“Two is when seeing someone else’s joyful birthday with friends, I can’ t help but feel the need to avoid it”
Hearing these simple answers, Bai Hua Fairy couldn’t help but grabbed the handles on her throne.
Five deep finger marks were engraved into the white flower-shaped Immortal Jade.
