The Birth of Sword God

Chapter 386 - 339: Advancement! Upper Grade Spiritual Embryo! (3)

In the next moment, he was inspired and entered a familiar mystical state.

...

...

The Imperial Capital of the Moon Country was exceedingly prosperous.

A Sword Cultivator disciple from the East Continent had achieved commendable results in the recent competition and was happily drinking with a few friends at a tavern.

At this moment, the gathering had just dispersed.

He was holding a long sword, staggering back to his residence.

Today, the tavern was filled with many Sword Cultivators.

They witnessed Chu Huaixu’s deathmatch with the National Guardian Sword and Sword Venerable’s Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root!

Today’s grand occasion should indeed be celebrated with a great toast!

And those who practice swordsmanship can really drink with abandon.

This young Sword Cultivator was already quite drunk, his eyes blurry as he looked at his Spirit Sword.

"Huh?" He doubted if he was seeing things.

Why did his Lifebound Sword have a double image?

He stared at it for a while before realizing it was his sword that was trembling!

This familiar scene was very much like the moment when the Sword Venerable used the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root today.

Except, at that time, the long sword just trembled a few times before swiftly turning into a stream of light, flying towards the Sword Venerable.

But now it’s different, the sword kept shaking.

"Wha... what’s happening?" The Sword Cultivator hiccupped, suddenly a bit more sober.

After about three breaths, his Lifebound Sword also suddenly soared into the sky!

The young Sword Cultivator was instantly dumbfounded.

Immediately, having drunk, he fell into boundless excitement.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root!"

"The Sword Venerable must have used the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root again!"

He looked up at the sky, indeed watching as streams of light began streaking across.

This was undoubtedly a signal.

—Something big is about to happen again!

A grand occasion like this, how could we Sword Cultivators miss it?

He sprinted madly towards the direction where his Lifebound Sword had flown.

Along the way, he encountered many Sword Cultivators acting the same way as him.

This made today’s Imperial Capital of the Moon Country seem like a massive Sword Cultivator parkour.

They all used their Body Techniques, each relying on their skills, to head as quickly as possible towards the direction where the Spirit Swords were gathering.

"Over there is... the Cultivation Hall!"

"That’s right, it’s the direction of the Cultivation Hall!"

"The Sword Venerable has actually used the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root twice in one day!"

"This trip to the Imperial Capital was worth it."

"When I go back, I can brag endlessly to my fellow disciples, hahaha!"

If these Sword Cultivators were on Earth and had online usernames, they would likely add a parenthesis afterwards, saying: (Seen the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root version).

As for the Sword Cultivators of the Moon Country, after their Lifebound Swords suddenly took to the sky, their emotions were quite complex.

How should I say this, the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root is indeed a pilgrimage to all Sword Cultivators in the world.

But surely the Sword Venerable isn’t just itchy-fingered today and decided to use it again in the Moon Country, right?

It must be another duel!

But if it’s a duel, the opponent is likely a Great Cultivator of our Moon Country!

This is the source of the Moon Country Sword Cultivators’ complexity.

Alas, even though it’s to pay homage, it feels like my mindset is a bit impure!

In fact, Sword Cultivators were certainly not the only ones alerted within the Imperial Capital.

A large number of cultivators started converging towards the Cultivation Hall.

Even many Great Cultivators were no exception.

In the National Preceptor’s Mansion, the female State Preceptor Lin Qingci was bathing in a wooden tub.

The hot water in the tub just covered her proud bosom.

This left her fragrant shoulders and collarbones exposed above the water.

A few water droplets adorned her fair skin.

The steam made her skin appear fresh and moisturized.

From a distance, it had a jade-like luster, incredibly beautiful.

She had just begun her bath not long ago.

Her lush, round bottom had only been seated for a moment.

Her beautiful eyes had just closed.

But the commotion outside immediately caught her attention.

"Eh—?"

"Is this... Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root?"

Unlike these ordinary Sword Cultivators, she had a questioning tone in her heart.

Because the current situation felt somewhat different from when the Sword Venerable used it.

But regardless, there was another major event happening in the Imperial Capital.

As State Preceptor and a grandmaster at the Eighth Realm, she had to rush over to see it immediately.

This supreme power, if mishandled, could harm ordinary people.

Lin Qingci immediately rose from the tub, and with a thought, the water droplets on her body vanished cleanly.

Because she was taking a petal bath, some petals sticking to her body were also swept away as she stood up.

After putting on her robe, still barefoot, she instantly turned into a stream of light and disappeared from sight.

Coincidentally, she was likely not the only Great Cultivator in the Moon Country heading over there.

Figures like the National Guardians and Blade Holders were also flying towards the area above the Cultivation Hall with utmost speed.

However, their expressions were even grimmer.

As everyone knows, in this world only the Sword Venerable of the Sword Sect can use the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root.

But you’re using it twice in one day in my Moon Country Imperial Capital, what’s the meaning of that!

This is outrageous, truly outrageous!

Such a magnificent display—is it because you think that after reaching the Ninth Realm, you are nearly invincible and thus flaunting it!?

Unexpectedly, wearing the long robes of a scholar, you are of this demeanor!

When they all flew to the sky above the Cultivation Hall, they were instantly stunned.

Because that middle-aged scholar stood aloft in the air, looking down with interest at the myriad Spirit Swords gathering there.

As for those cultivators living in the Cultivation Hall, they had already come outside, gazing up at the Spirit Swords in the sky.

Since these Spirit Swords didn’t fly very high, neither the Sword Venerable nor Jiang Zhi were gathered up in the high clouds, but standing where the Spirit Swords hovered not far away.

This allowed the cultivators with keen eyesight to clearly see the people above.

The number of cultivators gathering in and around the Cultivation Hall was increasing quickly, densely packed!

"It seems... it’s not the Sword Venerable!" Many hearts were immediately struck by this shocking conclusion.

Who!

Then who is it!!
