2024-10-29 19:42:56A breathtaking battle unfolded before the eyes of two small children.
"Let go of that ice rose, or it will be your memories that you will carry, demon! Besides, why should a despicable figure like you defile our Ice region?" Cold sounded the grey-white-robed man's voice.
Meanwhile, the man's aura refreshed the surroundings and formed a freezing cold snow. His hand was pointed straight ahead while holding a long sword that continued to emit icy vapour.
"Hehe, so you're Suma Chen, an Elven noble. Don't be so haughty. I see this plant lying in vain like a field of ice roses. There's nothing wrong with me picking a bunch for someone's medicinal purposes."
"You have no sense of humility at all. Fine, I will compensate you accordingly."
"We urgently need this ice flower to treat someone important in the Western region," replied the black figure in a low tone almost like a whisper. However, faintly visible behind the black smoke, a masked face with horns on its head, flashed a mocking smile at the man in grey.
"Duang Anming of the demon race from the West, I knew it was you, lowly creature. Your cultivation is only a low-ranked Great Spirit Realm, and you're trying to boast. Will you try my ability? I'll give you one last chance, remove the ice rose and leave the northern region!"
"Are you so stupid that you don't know this region is off limits to a demon race like yourself?" That cold voice sounded, as if it were a very ancient voice. "Hahaha... right, you Elf race are indeed arrogant. But, what can you be proud of? Only telekinesis ability and high mental energy. Without that, you are nothing in the path of the sword dao." The mockery came out of the black figure's mouth again.
"In that case, I will not hesitate." You could see the grey-robed man's mouth chanting a sword incantation, his hand pointing up while holding a sword.
"Hehe, think about it, do you think you're the only one with great abilities? Let's solve this problem with strength. I had just finished my cultivation with the latest Technique, Blood Skull Claw. My hands are itching to feel this new ability. You seem suitable as a test material," said Duan Anming, the black figure, wearing black-coloured iron gloves on both hands.
Between each of the gloves, 3 pairs of short swords appeared that flashed with a red-coloured aura. A fishy smell wafted from the direction of the 3 pairs of short swords from his gloves. Although black in colour, the gloves were full of magical and complicated symbols.
The Blood Skull Claw Technique was an extremely dark sword cultivation Technique and was considered a heresy. To master this sword Technique, a cultivator had to inject his sword into the skull of a living being, human or elf, and then absorb its blood into the dantian.
When the Blood Skull Claw Technique was executed, the enemy's blood would churn, and they would feel dizzy as their blood felt like it was being sucked out to be eaten by the Blood Skull Claw sword.
Meanwhile, from the hiding place, two small children were discussing curiously.
"That black figure is going to release the cultivation Technique of the Demon Race in the West. Rumour has it that the Perverted Technique is Earth grade Trenta rank. My grandfather once told me about the Demon Race in the western region, which is one of the superior races in the Dao of the sword. They belong to the 5 Sword King races in this vast Silver Continent."
They have cultivation that originates from the blood element. Hence, all the knowledge and techniques they possess have a Dark element as they involve the blood element," Yi Zan explained with a rushed breath due to the enthusiasm to witness this high-level battle, despite feeling shuddering.
The teenage boy was very curious. He did not stop asking questions. "If the black-robed man represents the western region that uses the blood element for the Dao of the sword, then what does the cold and expressionless grey-robed man represent?" asked Yuan Fen in a timid whisper to Yi Zan.
Yuan Fen had guessed that the grey-robed man named Suma Chen must represent the Elf race with the mastery of the Ice element sword Dao. This was because an aura of icy Qi and ice beads always appeared from the tip of the grey-robed man's long sword.
"I will try to explain as much as I know. This is the knowledge my grandfather gave me when I asked about who was the supreme sword master of the entire Silver Continent. Sometimes my grandfather's answers are less than satisfactory, but this is roughly how it goes," Yi Zan whispered while holding his breath so that they would not be detected by the two Great Spirit Realm Experts.

The little girl Yi Zan narrated smoothly as if she was part of the story herself.
"On this Silver Continent, about a thousand years ago, there were 5 sword kings representing the North, South, West, East, and central plains regions respectively. The distance between one region to another was very long. If travelling normally, it would take 6 months or even 1 year to cross between regions. You can imagine how vast the Silver Continent is and the distance between regions," Yi Zan said as he looked at the two figures in the distance who were preparing for battle.
"The Northern region is ruled by the Elf race who cultivate the Dao of the sword using the Ice element. This is in accordance with the conditions of the Northern region which is often covered in snow. That said, a Sword King of the Elven race is recognised and revered as the Sword King representing the Northern region. His ability in his sword Dao as an Elf race is to use the ice element."
Yi Zan sighed, he was too passionate in telling these fantastic stories. "Moreover, he is also a master in symbols and no one has matched him in these thousand years. This is because the Elven race has an innate talent in mental energy and a very great telekinesis ability."
In battle, the Sword King not only relied on his powerful cultivation techniques, but also used illusions to trap his enemies and then defeat them. With the ability to form such illusions, he easily takes the advantage in battle."
While the boy named Yuan Fen seemed to be holding his breath. This boy was very anticipating to hear the heroic story of the heroism of the rulers of the four cardinals and one in the Middle.
"Will the Sword King of the North win that competition?" Yuan Fen asked expectantly.

Yi Zan looked at the admiring Yuan Fen. He was getting more and more confident and fiery. Yi Zan rarely got any attention. Kioni saw that Yuan Fen was amazed by his explanation, and Yi Zan immediately shared all his knowledge."All of his weapons are engraved with the greatest Technique symbols, so that his armour, gloves, shoes, and weapons all have their abilities increased by 70% after he inscribed inscriptions and power symbols on all of his weaponry," Yi Zan explained. Yuan Fen listened in awe, letting the story of the great Sword King Rank Ruler flow."In the Western region, at that time the region had a Sword King who used the blood element for his cultivation, and the Sword King was from the demon race. Their race were dark cultivators who were extremely dangerous and were avoided by most cultivators. Dealing with dark cultivators of the demon race from the West was extremely risky. All of these demon races have small horns on their heads and often wear masks to cover their fa

Ice-shaped Qi energy, resembling sharp snow lotus beads, thrown at high speed from Suma Chen's sword tip towards Duan Anming's chest turned hundreds of ice lotuses gliding towards Duan Anming."Go away...!"Duan Anming shouted, and his body spun like a whirlwind, releasing dark and perverted spirits from the tip of his short sword. The spirits glared and opened their mouths, brutally swallowing all the lotus petals.What a meaningless attack," Duan Anming mocked.However, just as he finished speaking, the shadow of a sword beam approached his neck with the speed of a reaper. With a strange speed, the sword beam was suddenly in front of his eyes, delivering a deadly slash to his neck. This was accompanied by a gust of icy vapor that carried murderous air, leaving him asphyxiated.Duan Anming released Qi and formed a dark shield to protect himself from the strange attack. He slid backwards, away from the mysterious attack."Insolent! This Snow Lotus Pure Heart Sword Technique is strange

In the midst of the heavy rain, as dawn began to shine in the sky, there were two shadows running hurriedly on the edge of the Fairy Cliff. They, Yuan Fen and Yi Zan, no longer paid attention to their drenched bodies. All they thought about was running as far and fast as possible to leave the Fairy Cliff and reach the Cloud Sword Sect.Many small cuts and scratches dotted their skin as they broke through the bushes to find the fastest way to Cloud Sword Sect. For more than two hours, running, the Cloud Sword Sect came into view.The Cloud Sword Sect was actually a mini city surrounded by buildings housing the sect's disciples. In addition, there were five small hills behind where the disciples were trained and where the peak master and master of the Cloud Sword Sect lived.They separated themselves; Zuo Yi Zan moved towards Green Peak, while Yuan Fen headed towards the most remote part of the back. This part was usually not chosen as a place to live by the sect disciples who were less

Yi Zan smiled sweetly in front of Yuan Fen, her cheeks were dice red in color, making anyone want to pinch those dice red cheeks. Yuan Fen thought about teasing Yi Zan, but he didn't dare. The girl was quite fierce."Please," his hand extended towards Yuan Fen, handing over a token with the Cloud Sword Sect logo."Inside this token are 15 contribution points. Nine points are your wages, and the rest are bonuses for helping me avoid the lightning in the Fairy Cliff Forest.""Actually, this amount is too little for your service in saving me from a lightning strike," Yi Zan said.Yuan Fen was overjoyed when he received the contribution point token."Big brother, I hope that within the next two months, you will successfully reach the Five Mortal Realms. Although shifting the Cultivation realm from Mortal Realm Four to Mortal Realm Five is not an easy thing, I believe, with the intelligence you have, in two months you will be able to shift to Mortal Realm Five realm," Yi Zan said."I hope

Three days had passed. All the time, Yuan Fen was diligently practicing to maintain the tool stone that was the object of training. The goal was to keep the stone in the air for at least 10 minutes.With his determination and effort, the results Yuan Fen achieved were satisfactory. Finally, he could leisurely control the stone to stay in the air for 25 minutes, with the distance increasing to 25 meters.This achievement made Yuan Fen's heart full of joy. Impatiently, he waited for Yi Zan's arrival so that he could boast of his new skill.When the sun was at its peak, Yi Zan signaled his presence at Yuan Fen's hut. Her signature hum accompanied her arrival, singing loudly."Hmm! Has big brother progressed in his Spiritual Energy training according to my teachings?" The nine-year-old girl's voice sounded rather dry and shrill, befitting her young age. However, despite this, her voice still had a cheerful tone."Let's see your progress." Yuan Fen immediately demonstrated her new skills.
Swordbound Chronicles Symbol Master?
Cultivating in the Dao of mental energy to form illusions is the same as cultivating battle Qi Energy. Our mental energy must be strong and we must always practice to become stronger, even to create illusions and other actions. There are several ranks in mental energy called master symbols, namely:Seal Master , The Earth Master Symbol, The Master Symbol of Heaven consists of Heaven, The Master Symbol of Immortality, The Divine Master Symbol,"Yi Zan explained, "Just by achieving Seal 1 Symbol Master, one has been able to cultivate illusions and manipulate circumstances, so that in dangerous situations, one can evade as long as the enemy one is facing does not have a higher cultivation level.""That's why a symbol master is so respected," Yi Zan added."You still remember what I said, that only 1 in 100,000 people have the ability to cultivate mental energy. Even if one has mental energy, without the guidance of a master as a teacher, that ability is useless. Even if the person insist

The beautiful view from the air while riding the winged horse made Yuan Fen feel very excited. This new experience became precious to this simple and orphaned young man. If not for the meeting with Manager Xu Bao, who managed and organised all the worker disciples in the Cloud Sword Sect, perhaps now he would have been reduced to begging.Morning Star City was truly beautiful.++++Yi Zan ran around happily in the market area of Morning Star City. She stopped at stalls selling snacks and confectionery, then pulled Yuan Fen's hand to enter a women's clothing store.Unfortunately, as a Cloud Sword Sect disciple, Yuan Fen had to wear the uniform of the sect's robes, and could not adorn herself with any other clothing or accessories. Even so, Yi Zan still couldn't resist buying some female accessories, such as earrings, hair clips, rouge, lipstick, and powder.Yuan Fen was astonished at Yi Zan's enthusiasm for various accessories and makeup tools. He didn't realise that girls liked to dre

Give him a taste of what it's like to date someone who isn't susceptible to bullying, like that girl.""That idiot guard humiliated the Morning Star City Treasure House Hall."But that chick is just too mean. Sent the exploding charm exactly like that.""It is not flawed in any way. The same thing would be done if it were me."The second level of Noble Dish Restaurant, which is crowded with followers of many sects, was filled with a low cacophony of whispering voices."Please stop!" Interrupting, Ruan Ceng leaped like a bird to * his bouncer. Following that, he moved slightly backward to avoid getting too close to Yi Zan and Yuan Fen. Presumably from being shocked by an earlier explosion that resulted in his injuries, the guard appeared nearly asleep. But the majority of people in the room believed he would pass out from humiliation."

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.

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 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
