Chapter 840: Picked Up a Hot Potato
“Come on out. I know you’ve condensed a spiritual body too, so there’s no need to hide anymore,” the man called out challengingly, obviously referring to the sword spirit hidden in the Luo Chen sword.
“Sword heart, it’s you.” Since he had already been noticed by the other party, the Cang Yuan sword spirit no longer needed to hide, and materialized in its spiritual body.
“Sword spirit, you actually managed to integrate the sword soul and sword essence,” the sword heart looked at the sword spirit and said in surprise.
“That’s right. If you join us, sword heart, we would have gathered four of the seven shards. With your strength, we will definitely be able to find the sword might, sword force and sword path. When the seven shards of the remnants combine, we can recreate the Cang Yuan Divine Sword!” The sword spirit exclaimed passionately, his eyes shining.
“Hmph. As you can see, I’ve condensed into a spirit body, and I possess this White Jade Crystal Heart. With a bit of time, I will be able to cast a true sword body, so why do I need to join you all?” The sword heart scoffed.
“Sword heart, have you forgotten your identity?” The sword spirit’s expression changed, and he sounded dismayed.
“Identity? I form my own spirit body now. Do you think that I’m still the sword heart of back then?” The sword heart sneered coldly.
Ling Chuxi felt strange hearing the conversation between the two of them. In the past, when she had faced the sword soul and sword essence, she could only feel ferociousness or a chilling aura without any vitality. But now, facing the sword heart was like facing a living person with his own joys and sorrows.
He was right though. After condensing a spirit body, he would become an independent sword spirit. If that happened, would the current sword heart still be considered one of the seven shards of Cang Yuan?
“If there was no Cang Yuan sword, you would not have existed!” The sword spirit snarled fiercely.
“So what? When the Lord Sword Master left this world, the Cang Yuan sword destroyed itself. Why do we need to recreate it?” The sword heart asked indifferently.
“Don’t you want to take revenge for the Lord Sword Master?” The sword spirit demanded angrily.
Ling Chuxi blinked, slightly shocked. So the reason the Cang Yuan sword spirit wanted to gather the seven shards of Cang Yuan was to take revenge for the former Cang Yuan sword master! It had already been tens of thousands of years, were his enemies even alive? If they were, did that make them monsters? Old monsters that cultivated for tens of thousands of years... just how powerful would they be?!
Ling Chuxi felt a shiver run down her spine. She seemed to have picked up a hot potato by accident. ‘When this is over, I must ask him for details. I can’t get involved in this mess, or when the time comes, I’ll be dead before I know it!’
“Do you think that recreating the divine sword means that you can take revenge for Lord Sword Master? Even with his cultivation that allowed him to look down on the world, he was still defeated. What do you have to take revenge for?” The sword heart said in disdain.
“If it wasn’t for that despicable person backstabbing him, how could the Lord Sword Master have been defeated?” The sword spirit refuted furiously.
“Even if you’re right, tens of thousands of years have passed. I’m sure you can imagine how strong the opponents are. Do you think that you can get revenge with the Cang Yuan Divine Sword alone?” The sword heart asked scornfully, which was actually what Ling Chuxi wanted to say.
“I have found a new sword master and signed the Divine Sword Ancient Contract. As long as we recreate the divine sword, we will be able to take revenge for Lord Sword Master,” the sword spirit said confidently.
Ling Chuxi suddenly felt her back turn cold. ‘Wait... a new sword master that signed the Divine Sword Ancient Contract? Isn’t that referring to me?!’
