Chapter 128: Chapter 112: The Soul of the Sword! Such a legacy, I don’t want it!
The sword light that soared into the sky enveloped both the little Paperman and the equally baffled Su Ping.
Su Ping had not expected the commotion caused by this Sword Inheritance to be so huge. It seemed that it made no difference whether he avoided Dong Muyun or not. Since that was the case, Su Ping simply chose to ignore the murderous gaze from Dong Muyun behind him, who seemed to have come to a realization.
After all, I myself hadn’t anticipated that the predecessor who set up the inheritance would do so thoroughly. Could there really be no other resources in this Secret Realm?
Fortunately, the emergence of the sword light also attracted Dong Muyun.
What Su Ping imagined, that the inheritance would take him to another place, did not happen.
Clearly, he had overestimated the grandeur of this so-called Sword Inheritance.
Within his view, the sword light gradually faded, and a shadowy Sword Spirit slowly emerged from the top of the giant sword that pierced the sky.
"The legacy of my master has finally been activated. Young man, congratulations!"
The aged voice, along with the ethereal body and the words spoken, clearly revealed the identity of the figure.
Su Ping couldn’t help but feel a trickle of excitement and asked, "I’ve met you, Senior. May I ask who you are...?"
"I am one of my master’s Pet Beasts, and also the last wisp of Sword Spirit my master left in this Secret Realm! My master is the Fengdu Sword King, the general who guarded the northwest border of the Liang Dynasty!"
"Sword King?!"
Su Ping was slightly stunned. It seemed that this place was indeed the Heritage Secret Realm of an Emperor-level Beastmaster.
Su Ping felt a tinge of regret. It was a pity that it was only Emperor Level.
Seemingly detecting Su Ping’s feeling of regret, the figure appeared slightly dissatisfied. "Young man, although my master was a King Level Beast Tamer, he was once touted as the most likely to become a Sword Saint and even slew a Saint Level Ferocious Beast."
At this revelation, Su Ping promptly showed an astonished expression and said, "I see, I was presumptuous..."
After all, he was about to receive a benefit from someone else; he should maintain the respect due.
"Fengdu Sword King?"
This voice was not only heard by Su Ping but also by Dong Muyun and Qin Erlong at this moment.
The former obviously shared the same lack of historical knowledge as Su Ping. The latter, after thinking for a moment, recalled a name and said, "The Fengdu Sword King, Yu Liangqing, from several hundred years ago during the Liang Dynasty? The peak Sword King renowned for slaying ghosts and gods with a single sword? Indeed, he once killed a Spirit Saint Level Luo Life Ghost Mother. That would qualify him as a powerful peak Emperor-level Beastmaster. It’s unexpected that this Secret Realm is his Land of Inheritance."
Qin Erlong clicked his tongue and then grinned, saying, "Tsk, this is rather shabby. An entire Secret Realm without a single resource or even the seeds for resources to be born? Could it be that the Fengdu Sword King had his assets seized by the Emperor of the Liang Dynasty before he died?"
Clearly, Qin Erlong wasn’t the only one harboring this thought; Dong Muyun felt the same. However, they would soon understand why this was.
It seemed that Su Ping’s earlier attitude had slightly displeased this remnant soul. He no longer indulged in small talk but instead fulfilled his duty and directly conveyed the master’s final wishes, saying, "Well then, my master was devoted to the arts of the sword and necromancy in his lifetime. His ace Pet Beasts were the Two-stage Evolution cultivation created by his unique method: the General Level peak Immortal White Bone Sword, and its corresponding King Level Evolutionary Body, the Extinguishing Spirit Yama Sword!"
Goodness, those names sound quite imposing! Su Ping also showed an expectant look.
Although he wasn’t currently interested in Instrument Type Pet Beasts, the chance to freely obtain an Emperor Level cultivation method was quite nice. Unfortunately, the voice then said, "However, this secret cultivation method has already been offered to the Glazed Saint Master, and my master promised not to pass it on any further. Naturally, I cannot bestow it upon you either."
A streak of annoyance crossed Su Ping’s forehead. If it wasn’t to be passed on, why the long-winded explanation?
"Nevertheless, my master had a new idea after we failed in our attempt to ascend to the Saint Realm, knowing the path to Holy Master was out of reach. That was to integrate the Sword Type with the way of the undead, attempting to create a new Pet Beast! And this is the only legacy my master has left!"
"Oh?!"
Su Ping was taken aback and instinctively glanced at the little Paperman. So the little Paperman was the special Pet Beast this master had created? It really seemed so, as the little Paperman was indeed a combination of the Metal Element and the Necromancy Series.
"Then I have already received it!" he said with a smile.
However, the voice shook its head. "No! There’s one final step still missing!"
"Hm? What step?"
The voice paused, seemingly also becoming extremely excited, and continued, "The sword-souled Pet Beast my master wished to create is a purely undead sword! That is the true Pet Beast: ’Sword Soul’!
"Therefore, before dying, my master purchased two main material resources and several auxiliary resources, using the last of his time to create it!
"These two resources are the Saint Level ’Soul Seed’ and the Saint Level ’Sword Intent Origin’!"
Su Ping’s pupils shrank slightly.
Even Dong Muyun, who was not far away, inhaled sharply. Such extravagance!
The higher the Level of the resource, the more unimaginable its value.
Emperor Level resources were already unimaginably Advanced Level resources. And as for Spirit Saint Level ones... Needless to say, ordinary people probably hadn’t even heard the names of most Spiritual Level Resources, including Su Ping.
Fortunately, the figure went on to explain what these two resources that had reached such a level were for.
