Swordbound Chronicles The Sound of Coughing at the Edge of the Fairy Forest.
It was a rather cloudy day in the Cloud Sword Sect Mountain Range. The air was really cold as autumn would soon change to Snow season. Everyone was busy preparing for the coming winter. Preparations included gathering firewood for the cold weather and stocking up on food and other durable materials that would be needed during the winter.In one of the Cloud Sword Sect's worker disciple huts, Yuan Fen was still vigorously striving in his cultivation process to reach the Five Mortal Realm. Currently, he was feeling extremely frustrated as there were no signs that he would manage to break through the defenses blocking his cultivation progress."Do I really have to return to the Fairy Cliff Forest?" lamented Yuan Fen.After thinking for a while, he felt that going to the Fairy Cliff Forest was the only way to reach the Five Mortal Realm in the near future. Moreover, the recruitment day of the Sect Outer Court Students would arrive in 2 weeks."It's likely that the only way is to search fo
Swordbound Chronicles The Second Unexpected Meeting.
"A lonely night with a dead moon illuminated Yuan Fen, who stood alone in the forest. Suddenly, he felt startled, hearing a whisper in his ear. Confused, he turned around and exclaimed, 'Who is it...?'But there was no answer. The forest remained as silent as before.'Did I hear that voice talking about the 5 Sword Kings' Sword Technique and War Chant?' Yuan Fen felt confused. Could this be the chant that Fengyin used to sing? Impossible.Saluting and apologizing, he spoke to those who might be observing him within the forest. Yuan Fen was sure something greater was behind these events, that had been observing his steps on the Fairy Cliff.'What do I know, this forest is the result of a treaty between humans and the Xianren race?' he thought. 'The battle and the song I sang must have interfered.'Suddenly, a coughing sound was heard. The shadow of a person began to appear from within the forest. The man was very handsome, but his appearance was unfamiliar and strange. His hair was a m

"Mercy, Elder. I beg you to assign a task to me. I, Yuan Fen, am ready to obey the orders and accept your punishment. I know I have made a mistake by peeking at your sword techniques and even using them in battle," Yuan Fen said humbly.Yuan Fen had a sportsmanlike nature and did not hesitate to admit fault if he was guilty.Yuan Fen's attitude visibly moved Suma Chen. He replied, "Alright, seeing your chivalrous spirit and sportsmanship in admitting fault, I will forgive you. I spare your life."However, Suma Chen gave an understanding, "Please remember, only Elven descendants or direct disciples of the Suma family are allowed to use this Snow Lotus Pure Heart sword technique."Suma Chen, with regret, replied, "I am very sorry. However, I must paralyze your cultivation. I see tremendous potential in you, and I believe you will become one of the outstanding geniuses in this Northern Region."Yuan Fen asked further, "Except what, honorable Elder? I am ready to do anything. Just let me

"Please accept this Peony Flower Token. The Peony Token symbolizes royalty in the Elven world. When the Elven people see this token, the bearer is honored and respected because it represents a Duke among the Elves," Suma Chen said as he gave the token to Yuan Fen."When you visit the Elven world sometime in the future, take this Peony token. If you encounter any trouble, show this Peony. The Elves will respect you as they respect me as an Elven noble," Suma Chen added."However, you can only visit the Elven world when your cultivation level has reached the realm of the Spirit Condensation Realm. It is extremely risky for a Mortal Realm to pass through the spatial passage that connects the human and Elven worlds. With a Mortal Realm cultivation level like the one you have now, passing through the spatial passageway would only cause your body to be severely injured," Suma Chen explained with a gasp."When the time comes, and you are in the world of the Xianren domain, look for an Xianre
Swordbound Chronicles Signs in the Sky.
That morning in the Fairy Cliff Forest, Yuan Fen performed the final honouring rituals in the cave for Suma Chen's death. All the advice and teachings Suma Chen had given him before Xianren's death were still clearly imprinted in his memory. He was also reminded not to cry over Suma Chen's death.The child was still kneeling in front of Suma Chen's body. When it was daylight, he dripped the Blue Ice Core liquid onto Suma Chen's corpse, which then froze and formed a cluster of crystals that protected it. Finally, Suma Chen was encased in crystals, which preserved the corpse's immortality.Yuan Fen paid his respects again and then kept the corpse inside the spatial ring that Suma Chen had given him.Next, Yuan Fen performed a contractual act on the spatial ring by dripping his blood and reciting incantations so that it was locked and would only open when Yuan Fen touched it with his mind.Of course, he was cautious with the ring his Master gave, as it contained many precious treasures.
Swordbound Chronicles Sword Sect Recruitment.
Only one day, he was left for the Sword Cloud Sect's recruitment ceremony. Meanwhile, Yuan Fen was always busy with cultivation. After finishing all his tasks during the day, he practiced the Trenta Earth Ranking Defence Technique as a copy scroll stored in his spatial ring.Although the training in this defense Technique was not perfect, Yuan Fen was quite satisfied. His body changed as he reached level 1 of this Technique, which was Copper Skin. Based on the explanation in the copy he studied, he knew that if he improved his cultivation of this defense, he could reach rank 2, Silver Skin. The highest rank in this Technique was Golden Skin.Although it would take a long time to reach the Silver Skin Technique, let alone the Golden Skin, Yuan Fen had decided to stop using herbs and cultivation-enhancing pills. He let his technique improvement changes happen through the natural cultivation path.With the Copper Skin ability, Yuan Fen tried to practice the Ocean Breaking Palm Punch comb
Swordbound Chronicles Sword Sect Entrance Examination.
On the third day of the Cloud Sword Sect's Inner Court Student Entrance Examination, the number of entrance examinees had shrunk, dropping to 1500. All of these youths are extremely talented geniuses. Their future was predicted to be very bright as they were from the Two Star Sect, one of the Seven Great Sects Alliance in the Great Ying Empire. Opportunities to hold government positions or become royal officers are wide open to them. The Empire highly valued this Seven Great Sects Alliance.However, worries still haunted all the participants. The third test, determining whether they would be accepted as Cloud Sword Sect students, was considered the most severe. Yuan Fen stood among the many prospective students. Today was the last day of the exam, so Yuan Fen felt a little more relaxed. He observed the examinees.His gaze stopped on a 12-year-old boy who had a friendly face. The boy even smiled at Yuan Fen, although Yuan Fen then turned his attention towards the others."Big brother,
Swordbound Chronicles Sword Sect Library.
That morning, at the green peak of Cloud Sword Sect, Yuan Fen was cultivating to strengthen his Snow Lotus Energy Qi. He was ambitious and wanted to finish his cultivation in the Mortal Realm to move to the Spirit Condensation Realm as soon as possible.However, reality was always cruel. It was more challenging than imagined and wishful thinking to enter the Spirit Condensation Realm quickly. Even the signs of breaking through to the 8th Mortal Realm had yet to appear. The big-hearted Yuan Fen then thought that if he couldn't reach the Spirit Condensation Realm shortly, it was better to keep cultivating and consider other alternatives.Yuan Fen then stepped into the library and met Elder Bao An, an expert who could advise on the Technique he would choose."Greetings, Elder Bao An. I, Yuan Fen, have come to visit.""Fen Er... you came to visit the library. You finally became a disciple of the Sect's outer court. Say, what can I do for you?" Elder Bao An was pleased with Yuan Fen's visi

He deliberately emphasized "Demon Race Clan" so the ascetic would be scared upon hearing his clan's big name. So far, their Demon Race Clan had dominated the West, so any practitioner in the Western region would think a hundred times before crossing people associated with their clan.However, Mao Ren Hao was surprised that the young ascetic wasn't startled at all; instead, he just smiled blandly. The ascetic, like other wise men, said..."It is not good for a man to kill his baby—his flesh and blood. You must repent because your actions will anger even the demons in hell." His face had the serene look of a saint.Mao Ren Hao was shocked. In his entire life, this was the first time a simple person had given him advice and considered his actions wrong. All this time, everything he did was according to the instructions of his Demon Clan ancestor. No one dared to blame his ancestor—the current Supreme Leader of their Clan.With a face filled with anger, Mao Ren Hao stood up straight. With

Tuiiitt!The sound of a flute rang out, sinking deep into the heart as if breaking the silence.The birds of the forest flew around chaotically, disturbed by the rhythm of the flute, which was becoming increasingly oppressive by the day. The girl's face paled as if the sound of the flute had sucked her blood out. Without hesitation, she immediately handed over her baby to the ascetic man. A sword was drawn, gleaming like silver in the moonlight."The rhythm of death," the girl hissed hoarsely, full of fear.Soon, the flute's sound turned low and became silent. A single figure stood floating halfway up the willow tree, staring coldly at the girl. Its cold aura seemed to pierce through her bones."M-Mao Ren Hao..." the girl's voice stuttered, choked with fear.In front of her, hovering with a cold gaze, was a man wearing an all-black tunic, with hair as black as ink and an ordinary appearance but a powerful aura. He was quite young—around 30 years old—yet so young that he could play the

Suma Fen became highly grateful. Cultivating in this Red Realm, apart from cutting down on time, he felt as if he had been bestowed with the incomparable gift of the Scarlet Rose.The passage of so much time had also changed the young man's appearance. Although his age seemed unchanged—like two months of growth—the growth of his hair, beard, and mustache had visibly adorned his youthful face.As a result, aside from his more mature demeanor, at first glance, one would hardly recognize him as Suma Fen with that mustache and beard. He even looked like a noble—a hermit."Twenty years in this Red Frontier World, my dantian has been in turmoil. Soon, the stronghold of my dantian will be breached; the half-immortal world is in sight," the young man thought. His lips curled into a smile—he smiled happily.+++Silver Continent, Western Region.The appointed time, according to the agreement between the Eastern Empire and its alliance with the Western Region against the Northern Region, had pas

Unlike Elves, who only need to die and then sail to the afterlife, you need to know that when Elves reach the Enchanted Land, they will not retain the cultivation they had when they died. Everything will start from zero: a new body, a new mind, and a new cultivation..." Suma Fen took careful note of this explanation. Only now did he truly understand what an immortal was and its benefits."That's why I accepted the job as a guard, living in a world where time has come to a standstill," the Guard explained. "Then, the Judges and Angels of Wonderland, who took pity on my condition—not immortal but also nothing—offered me a job as a Guardian in this Border world, guarding the bodies of thousands of practitioners who died when they failed to break through to become Immortal.""Here, my age seems to have come to a standstill due to the miraculous actions of the Angels and Judges of Wonderland. My age was consumed when I had to go to the world, pick up practitioners who failed to become immo

With a look of disbelief, Suma Fen replied, "I—this... well, it's impossible. You can't be that old, right?" His hand gripped the Black Immortal Sword even tighter.The old man replied flatly, "I am over twenty thousand years old." Although Suma Fen wore a shocked expression, the old man did not care about the change on the young man's face. In reality, the words of being twenty thousand years old hit Suma Fen hard.He continued, "This place is called the 'Border.' I should have killed you when I found you in this forbidden place. But since you are the heir of the two sword kings and considering my friendship with them in the past, I decided not to take your life.""You can live here accompanying me with those thousands of coffins over there," he pointed at the rows of coffins with his eyes."Is there no way out of here?" asked Suma Fen frantically."No! There is no way out of here. You will be here forever. Maybe I'll even consider you my successor, as a 'Guardian'! Guardian is my na

Following the creaking sound that broke the silence of the red world, a figure stood in front of the door. It was a tall, slender man, perhaps barely over six feet tall. This man was probably seventy years old, but he guessed he was over five hundred.The man's face was pretty ordinary—not handsome, but not ugly, either. His white hair was left down, with a little mustache and white beard adorning his flat face.The clothes he wore were made of expensive satin fabric, which was made of layers of all-white color, almost matching his pale skin and face, which was as pale as the moon. That face looked cold and expressionless.Despite having had countless encounters with various humans and other races over the years, the youngster was taken by surprise by the cold appearance before him. Without realizing it, his legs reflexively moved backward."Who are you? And what brings you to this Rose Castle?" a voice echoed in Suma Fen's mind, but he didn't see the person in front of him open his m

...ARC 8. The struggle for the title of supreme...Suma Fen awoke from his sleep on a dry land filled with rocks and hills. As far as the eye could see, everything looked like a dry, reddish-colored expanse of rocky soil, carrying a terrifying aura. This world was absurd, lonely, and dimly lit, with not a single living thing to be found.The only natural lights in this strange world were the moonlight, which looked full like a full moon, and the twinkling stars in the distance. He looked up and gazed at the clear sky—without moving clouds like in the human world. As for the air? Of course, under such circumstances, everything felt cold there. Perhaps it was due to the influence of the moon's energy.(Later, he would finally discover that in this world—this red world has never experienced daylight.)"Am I dead?" he thought.However, when he checked his entire body condition, he started by trying to flow energy from his dantian and then throughout his meridians, "Everything is fine.

The wind was blowing very hard inside the portal room. Hair and all floating objects fluttered in the storm."Keep holding on to each other; don't separate!" shouted Suma Fen.He tightened his grip on the Phoenix's neck while Atid tightly held the Elephant's neck, and the Elephant's trunk wrapped securely around the Phoenix's legs."How long will it take us to move through this portal?" shouted Atid."No more than an hour," Suma Fen replied."Perhaps in about a heartbeat, we will land at the opening portal in the western region of the Silver Continent.""Alright!" replied Atid with satisfaction.Meanwhile...While engrossed in their shouting match, none of them realized that a small explosion had occurred at the very front of the time tunnel, creating sparks.The Phoenix was the first creature to notice the sparks. The mythical creature began to twitch restlessly, sensing an ominous premonition.The Fire Phoenix began to scream at the top of her lungs—repeatedly screaming with a whoos

The jet of water that came out of the snout of Ryu, the water dragon, instantly froze and turned into sharp, long ice crystals like swords.There were more than five thousand menacing flying swords—locked and ready to roast Bai Chan Cheng into frozen meat."Dead! I'm dead!" Bai Chan Cheng resigned himself and closed his eyes.The flute-like voice of the Elf once again sounded melodious, "Enough! Stop it!"Bai Chan Cheng opened his eyes slowly. He saw the thousands of ice swords standing still. Then they melted and fell to the sand in the form of liquid. Bai Chan Cheng broke out in a cold sweat, with grain after grain dripping down his forehead.After a while, everything became quiet. Slowly, Bai Chan Cheng said, "Lord Baron Wei, please tell me your terms. I will inform our emperor."The Elf remained silent with an expressionless face. Then he said, "Tell your Emperor. A year from now, a practitioner from our northern country will represent us in competing with the most vigorous practi
