BXBX NOVEL Chapter 118 - Sword Saint 2
The shadows in his body moved in an organised fashion as they all flowed towards his heart where they congregated, eventually forming into a spiked black chain that wrapped tightly around his heart.
After a few minutes of struggling, the Sword Saint finally managed to recover.
But to his surprise, as he looked around, he found that all traces of Winton had disappeared completely disappeared.
It was as if he was never even here in the first place!
After double checking to make sure Winton had truly left, The Sword Saint
finally breathed out a sigh of relief.
The situation had occurred so randomly, he almost thought it was a dream.
But just a quick feeling in his chest made him remember that his experience was most definitely a real one .
The man that had randomly appeared had a cultivation realm miles above anything The Sword Saint could ever hope to achieve.
Body refining
Martial Novice
Martial Journeyman
Martial Adept
Martial Expert
These were all the cultivation realms common on this continent.
And as one of the stronger members on the continent, The Sword Saint had been comfortably sitting at the peak of the Martial expert realm for years now.
but things weren\'t always this way.
Many years ago, when he was much younger and much more optimistic about his cultivation potential, he even had hopes of ascending to a higher realm of cultivation.
Due to this hope, the sword Saint had done much research about the higher realms, scouring every record and experience for information about the higher realms.
And It was because of this research that he knew that man was miles above his cultivation level
"Martial Master....
No! That man.. he has to be above even that realm. It may be possible that he\'s even in the Martial Grandmaster realm!"
Just that thought alone sent shivers down his spine.
\'The meeting with King Raiden is now more urgent than possible\' thought The sword Saint
...
meanwhile, as all this was going on, Winton was floating high in the night sky above the capital
Winton looked down on the faint lights and the people running around the city floor and lightly smiled
"it will be a long time before I could come back here..."
Winton quickly shook these sad thoughts out of his head.
As he did so, the kind aura around Winton instantly vanished.
Instead, it was replaced with an emotionless gaze.
"Well, I guess I should start now."
after saying that, Winton carried on rising high above the clouds until he couldn\'t even see the capital city any longer.
after making sure he was a good distance away, Winton slowly spoke
"spatial collapse."
with a snap of his fingers, a black hole started to form in air.
all the air in the surroundings seemed to rush into the pitch black abyss but things didn\'t end there
"Crack!"
suddenly lines started to form in the air as if the very space around the hole started cracking open!
"Shatter!"
With Winton\'s instructions, the cracking space was completely destroyed with even the black hole itself vanishing!
All that was left was a gaping portal that seemed to show a completely different area.
The scenery on the other side of the portal was a barren landscape, completely tainted with a reddish hue.
It was almost like a layer from the deep pits of hell.
But Winton didn\'t seem fazed by this sight. In fact, he even started to smile.
"It really is good to be back home."
Winton took a step through the portal and as he did so, a wave of shadows entered with him.
The hellish landscape seemed to shake as if had been hit by a devastating earthquake while an unstoppable wave of shadows continued to spread with no possible end in sight.
"Hahaha! I, Shadow Demon Winton, am back!"
That was the last sight that could be seen before the portal suddenly closed shut.
....
The next day
Dante was quietly cultivating in his room.
Ever since Dante had started his cultivation journey, he discovered that he found himself sleeping less and less.
As long as Dante spent some time cultivating, his body seemed to be able to function perfectly fine with anywhere around 4 hours of sleep!
It was because of this, Dante actually spent more time cultivating than he did even sleep.
"Knock! Knock!"
Suddenly, Dante\'s deep meditation was interrupted by a sudden banging on his door.
"Who is it?" asked an annoyed Dante
"It\'s Rebecca."
Hearing this, Dante already had a bad feeling.
"What on earth are you doing in there Dante? Do you know what time it is?
You\'re going to be late for the welcoming ceremony!"
"Shit!!"
Hearing Rebecca\'s shouting, Dante knew he had fucked up and quickly replied.
"Don\'t worry, I\'ll be ready in Five minutes."
after saying that Dante quickly went to freshen up.
...
5 minutes later, Dante stood properly dressed and even took a second to admire his handsome image in the mirror.
\'Damn! I really do look good!\'
despite all this, Dante knew no was not the time to be admiring himself and quickly grabbed his massive greatsword and, after carefully strapping it to his back, left his room!
As soon as he left the room, he was greeted by the icy gaze of Rebecca staring him down.
"Well look who it is, our very own sleeping beauty." Said Rebecca
"Hey, Don\'t blame me. I was up all night dealing with many things, just look at the massive sword on my back!"
now that Dante mentioned it, Rebecca finally noticed the giant sword he was lugging around.
"What the hell is that?"
"would you believe me if I told you it was the silver sword I used to carry around?"
hearing this Rebecca couldn\'t believe her ears
"Impossible! For starters, the sword isn\'t the same colour."
After seeing the confusion on Rebecca\'s face, Dante felt like he had to explain what happened.
"Well, yesterday I was looking at the armour I brought from the store you took me to yesterday when suddenly the sword yanked the armour piece out my hand.
but things didn\'t end there as the sword actually started to absorb the piece of armour and grow bigger!
That can probably explain the colour change, but on how that even happened in the first place? Well, your guess is as good as mine."
But even after hearing Dante\'s explanation, Rebecca wasn\'t going to let things slide so easily.
well even if you\'ve explained the ridiculous size of the sword, it doesn\'t mean you\'ve explained why you are dragging it around on your back.
Put in your space pouch, for crying out loud!
lugging around such a massive weapon, it just makes you look like a barbarian!"
