Swordbound Chronicles Semidevil Rank I – Part I.
The woman's face was so beautiful; she looked so unpretentious that it made me feel sorry for her. She was wearing a pink brocade dress similar to the one her mother used to wear when attending special occasions.Guo Jiang was shocked; a sense of disbelief instantly struck him, unable to believe his vision. His neck felt like it was suffocating, longing to say words to his mother, wanting to hug that figure."I—mother... is it true that you are my mother?" asked Guo Jiang, almost in tears.His mother figure replied, "It's me, your mom... look at me here, my son." Tears fell, wetting the soft cheeks of Guo Jiang's mother.Guo Jiang remained incredulous. "But my mother passed away two years ago. H-how can she suddenly appear in front of me like this?" His little heart rejected this apparition.Guo Jiang didn't realize that his mother's figure was walking slowly, seemingly floating without touching the ground. He had been struck by a magic charm.He didn't even catch a glimpse of the lig
Swordbound Chronicles Semidevil Rank I – Part II.
That young man wasn't even a practitioner who had been able to gather the energy of the world to gather it inside him. In theory, he was still a mortal. The act of summoning wind was a dangerous act that threatened his life.Obviously, all his energy was drained out, and he almost died a horrible death. His body floated away with the wind that he himself had created and was blown away in a state of unconsciousness.The storm had passed; the night had not yet ended, and Guo Jiang realized that he was not in the middle of the forest anymore but in a place with steep hills, looking damp from the rain and the wind of the meadow.'Where am I right now? This place is truly an unfamiliar location, one I've never been to,' Guo Jiang thought, holding his aching head."Ah, you're awake. Are you okay?" Guo Jiang was startled to hear the voice reprimanding him.Today he had been reprimanded by two strangers. The first had been a long one when he encountered the hellish creature Egui. And now a ma

But instead of receiving a look of admiration or even a dumbfounded expression from the young man, the Refiner became disappointed. His face was instantly filled with dark clouds. Not only that, Guo Jiang even asked back innocently."I'm sorry... can you explain to me? What is the Semi Devil?" Guo Jiang asked innocently.Like a burning ember about to overflow in the wind, the aged remnant soul looked disappointed. He said softly, "Time passes quickly, doesn't it? The glory days of the era when I was admired as the Semi Devil in Hell's Underbelly are now past." The gray-robed man's complaints made Guo Jiang feel pity."There is no need to be sad, sir. If you don't mind, this young man is willing to hear your stories, all your tales of the glory days as a rank 1 Semi Devil in the underworld. I should inform you that that place is now called The Abyss."The night passed quietly; the wilderness breeze brought a chill but did not deter Guo Jiang from hearing the heroic stories of the gray-
Swordbound Chronicles Snow Lotus Energy Cultivation Technique – Part II.
Guo Jiang was a clever kid and was good at reading situations. He hurriedly brought himself closer to the feet of the gray-robed Refiner, bowed, and kissed the ground. He said with tears in his eyes,"Dear Refiner Lord, I have long been humiliated and insulted by people running away and hiding in this remote place. This is all I did just to take revenge on those who killed my two parents as well as the inhabitants in the Hell of Earth Belly.""Please take me on as a disciple to teach me the right way to motivate myself, to take revenge, and to become a practitioner who walks the path of righteousness."Guo Jiang prostrated himself at the feet of the gray-robed Refiner with tears in his eyes. The man was silent, not moving at all, letting Guo Jiang remain in a prostrate position at his feet.Time passed slowly; the wind blew lightly, and the sky was already twilight. The golden yellow color of the Western horizon was visible in a yellowish tinge in the sky. But Guo Jiang didn't move hi
Swordbound Chronicles Snow Lotus Sword Technique.
The Refiner just waved a hand, and the dust and moss covering the range of high cliffs instantly fell, flying away in the wind.Now Guo Jiang could see on the cliff walls, which had 10 high cliffs, that on each of them there were scratches made by sharp objects, irregular and probably the result of sword strokes.Guo Jiang gasped. He didn't expect that someone could make sword strokes on such a hard and tall-looking cliff.'Unless that person can fly,' he thought. His face sobered up, and his heart sank...'This means that if those sword strokes were made by the Refiner in the past, it means that he could fly,' he silently glanced at the lingering soul figure whose shadow was getting blurry.Guo Jiang was extremely shocked. Because in this present time, the time after 1000 years of martial arts glory, no one among the practitioners of the martial world could perform flight movements.He then noticed the sword scratches on the high cliff.At first, the scratches looked ordinary, as if
Swordbound Chronicles Archer Temur – Part I.
Guo Jiang really enjoyed the journey back to the grassland where the Xuantong Tribe's camp was located. Previously, his travel to the Fir Forest had been full of struggles, but now everything felt easy.He felt like a bird as he jumped from one rock to another while descending the steep valley. Laughing happily, he ran quickly along the grassy ground, as fast as a deer.On several occasions, Guo Jiang even practiced chasing wild horses. Although he eventually lost, Guo Jiang was still happy. In his entire life, this was the first time he felt so great.'I feel like this is all a dream; I can't believe that I've become someone worthy of being called a cultivator,' he thought happily.Previously, the journey taken from the Xuantong Tribe's campsite to the Fir Forest took up to half a day. Now that he was ranked as a level 2 mortal expert, the trip back to the campsite only took a few hours—no more than 2 hours.Guo Jiang organized all the herbs and spirit plants he had harvested while i
Swordbound Chronicles Archer Temur – Part II.
Everyone in the field erupted in cheers when they saw that the first arrow hit the black dot in the center of the target, followed by the second arrow splitting the first arrow, also hitting the black dot. Then the third, fourth, and fifth arrows all overlapped each other, perfectly centered on the target.Guo Jiang now ignored Tole and Guyug, who were trembling in disbelief, and walked over to instructor Tudan, who then patted his shoulder repeatedly."Congratulations, Archer Temur. As an archery instructor, as well as a soldier, this is the first time I've seen an archer who was able to release five arrows in a row, all at almost the same time. Moreover, the most surprising thing is that the five arrows are all on target, splitting each other and scrambling to hit the most central point," Tudan said, looking at Guo Jiang sincerely.Guo Jiang humbly expressed his gratitude, saying it was all thanks to instructor Tudan's guidance and training."I was thinking of offering you a career
Swordbound Chronicles Northwest Tribal Genius Tournament – Part I.
One year has passed, and time has flown by. Winter has given way to spring, and now it's summer—the time when the match between the geniuses of the three northwestern tribes will be held in the near future.Guo Jiang is currently 13 years old, and he is already very proficient in the Snow Lotus Purity Sword Technique. Every night, he practices to the point where it feels like there isn't enough time to sleep. Not to mention that after returning from sword technique training, he has to practice breathing to increase cold energy according to the Snow Lotus Cultivation training.Previously, the effect of this gold-ranked sword technique only produced a cold impact, but now, with the stability of his cultivation at level 2 Mortal rank, Guo Jiang has been able to cause a deadly effect with each stroke of the sword in his hand."I really need to win this race. That grand prize Qilin tear is truly my ultimate ticket to reunite with the gray robe refiner. The 10-Step Nameless Sword Technique

Wings of Rune and Wonder.
He didn’t really want to own it. But when his eyes fell on the strange rune symbols that emerged from the surface of the robe, Guo Jiang became interested and intended to possess it.Overwhelmed with curiosity, the youngster leapt up while chanting Wind Chakra. He was now seen flying on the wind—a miraculous wind rider.Suiit!His body floated in beautiful movements, his feet not touching the water at all. Guo Jiang looked like a person performing the Walking on Water Qinggong technique.Tap - tap!With his hand deftly grabbing the white robe, his body was now carried by the wind and he lightly and silently stepped onto the deck of the ship."What is that thing you picked up, Brother Jiang?" Jiayi asked curiously. Next thing he knew, the boy was standing by Guo Jiang’s side.Uncle Huang Guowei also now came over, then he observed the cloak-shaped object in Guo Jiang’s hand."Let’s take a look together. I found that there are rune symbols known only to spiritmaster experts written all
Autumn’s Soul-Healing Melody.
Guo Jiang had just finished a song that the Refiner had taught him, while in the Fir Forest—on the cliffs hidden by the Northwest Territory.Unfortunately, due to the rushed nature of his learning at that time, the Gray Robe Refiner’s mentor only advised,"I can only teach you one composition from a series of four actual songs.This is the first stanza of When Autumn Comes. The rhythm of the first verse is healing in nature. When you play this soul-healing rhythm, a repairing effect will occur and create a melancholic sensation in the listener.The second stanza is Winter on the Fairy Cliff, the third When Spring Comes, and the last stanza Summer in Elf Country. Although they are healing, they can also strike and hurt one’s soul.Right now, my soul is too weak. It is no longer possible for me to gather magic energy and train you with the last three stanzas of this soul-busting song."Guo Jiang remembers well the Refiner at that time said,"If the heavens will and fortune surround you,
Trial of the Black Conch: Legacy or Death.
"Human...Where did you get that thing? It is one of the Ancient Artifacts left over from our ancestors whose origin is far away in a realm that you will never meet." Despite his loud voice, Onyx showed respect for the Black Conch Artifact. He then continued."If you are the true owner of this artifact from our ancestors, show me what it does and how to play it! Impress me! I will let your group pass through and enter this Virtue Veil Island!" Onyx’s voice sounded oppressive."But... if you fail to show me how to use that thing in your hand, then death will be your reward." Onyx’s voice resembled the rumbling and crashing of waves.Of course, Huang Guowei immediately felt nervous after the Mermaid King Onyx threw down such an oppressive challenge. Huang Guowei was depressed; now the life and death of everyone aboard the Ocean Crossing ship was in Huang Guowei’s hands.It wasn’t once or twice that Huang Guowei had been in the mouth of island master Huang Guiying. The island master narr
The Trident’s Wrath and the Song of Salvation.
A mighty sword aura tore through the ocean as ten Atmosphere-level practitioners thrust giant swords toward Onyx. At that moment, the waves cracked, the splashing water turning into new waves of needle-shaped foam, all menacingly aimed at Onyx.Onyx only chuckled at the attacks of the ten Atmosphere experts. He snorted out an insult. His figure remained motionless; only the trident in his hand seemed to glow, small sparks of lightning faintly appearing.Those ten Wux Clan Atmosphere experts were really reckless. That trident weapon was a Silver Artifact full of magic runes made by a Sky-level Spiritmaster expert in the past. Clearly, this was a weapon that the ten of them were no match for.The shadows of the ten practitioners traveled with the aura of giant swords. Their distance was getting closer to the Onyx Mermaid. Everyone at sea on both the Ocean Cruiser and the two Wux Clan ships held their breath."Who will win this battle?""Get ready for a big explosion."Afterward, Onyx to
The Peerless Lightning Sword Formation.
Then... Duar!Lightning flashed in the sky. When that natural phenomenon captured and absorbed the command energy from the trident that was scratched into the horizon, it gave flame to the ocean on the Virtue Veil Island.The lightning that was generated from the scratch of the trident in Onyx the Ocean King's hand ignited fire in a small area in the waters of Benevolent Sapphire Island.Onyx now looked even more terrifying. He was standing on high, foamy waves, also surrounded by flames caused by the lightning effect of the Lightning Summoning Trident.At that time, the ten atmospheric rank practitioners, who had stopped their flight in the air, were all shrouded in trepidation at the appearance of Onyx the Mermaid.They looked at each other with hesitation. Should they attack the Ocean Cruiser and ignore the giant creature?"What are we going to do?" the practitioner whispered using the transmission."Is it going to continue beating up Huang Guowei and the rest of the ship, and not
The Lightning Summoning Trident Revealed.
Onyx King of the Ocean emerged from the depths of the ocean. The figure stood majestically above the waves, with the background of splashing water and thunderous waves crashing one after another, making his appearance look terrifying.White in color mixed with silver, similar to and seemingly part of the froth of the crashing waves, Onyx emerged from the water. He looked so tall, like a giant creature about ten meters tall.The king of the seas stood majestically above the foam of the waves that sounded eerily like the sound of a flood. He was covered in water and crashing waves in that silvery color. Onyx looked majestic as he held a six-foot-long wooden-handled trident, a three-bladed spear.Onyx vaguely looked like a fifty-year-old man with a serious look on his face and a long silver mustache and beard. On his head he wore a silvery white crown, all adorned with sea pearls. His upper body resembled that of a human, but from the waist down it looked like an enormous fish, also in w
The Windmaster's Fury.
Those words from Uncle Huang Guowei made Guo Jiang smile. Indeed, he had always hidden his ability as a Spirit of Moon ranked spiritmaster."Alright then," he replied with a modest smile.The youngster then stood apart, slightly away from Uncle Huang Guowei and Jiayi.Guo Jiang was seen forming a seal on his chest. Then, as dramatically as if the youngster changed from the friendly, everyday teenager they knew, he turned into a serious-looking, regal figure. Huang Guowei, especially Jiayi, was dumbfounded at the drastic change. But both watched silently."Controleaza Bantul!" Guo Jiang was heard crying. That was the chant of a wind summoner.Suddenly, from the direction of the sky came the rumbling sound of the wind, extremely loud and terrifying. The sound was oppressive and even more terrifying to hear than the thunderous roar of the ten atmospheric experts who were chasing behind them.The entire ship turned deathly pale as a monstrous wave as high as a hill was created after a Tau
The Wings of the Wux Clan.
Uncle Huang Guowei was unable to delay his curiosity. In a loud voice he said,"There are ten Atmosphere rank practitioners with devastating force pulling two ships to move quickly after us.How can they fly? Where did they get those magic wings on their backs?" Huang Guowei really couldn’t believe his eyesight.In his eyes as a cultivator who had eaten the sour and salt of the Martial Arts world, as an ordinary human cultivating at the Atmospheric Expert level, performing the act of flight was absolutely impossible. Only an expert or practitioner of the Kaishi (Immortal Beginning) rank could fly like demigods during the heyday of the Martial Arts world a thousand years ago.(Eating sour and salt is an idiom, meaning having extensive experience.)Now that the heyday of the Cultivator era a thousand years ago has come to an end, there hasn’t been a single expert in this Silver Filtration Continent who has reached the Kaishi realm since then. Then Huang Guowei said curiously,"I wonder,
Battle Beneath the Waves
It was a rushed morning. It was called a rushed morning because Guo Jiang and Jiayi had been forcefully woken up by Uncle Huang Guowei. Huang Guowei, who still had the vigilance of an Atmosphere rank expert, used his aura to check up to five li away and discovered the existence of ten Atmosphere rank cultivators, threateningly closing in on their Ocean Cruiser."My aura detection is five li away, detecting the presence of ten Atmosphere rank cultivators.(One li is equivalent to half a kilometer.)I suspect they are minions of the Wux Family Clan. It is strongly felt from the presence of the ten atmospheric experts’ auras, which are explosive and getting closer to this ship," Uncle Huang Guowei explained uneasily.The two youngsters fell silent. Facing ten Atmosphere rank cultivators at the same time was not a simple job."Then what are we going to do?" asked Guo Jiang.Uncle Huang Guowei paused for a moment."There is only one way. That is to make this ship move faster and faster tow
