Geng Qi repeatedly thanked the two seniors and mumbled, “My Master said that one must repay kindness, but I don’t have anything on me. If necessary, I can forge a sword for each of you. That Senior said that his sword was a life-bound magic weapon that he had nurtured since he was young, and no other sword could compare to it. I don’t know how to thank him.”
“You should continue to persist in your dream and win the championship of the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event. That will be your way of repaying him.” Liu Yuan said casually, “He must have taken a fancy to you after seeing how you’re fighting for your dreams.”
Geng Qi was stunned for a moment, then he clenched his fists and nodded. “Mm! I will not let him down!”
Liu Yuan thought to himself that he was really a hot-blooded young man, just like in the game.
“Why do you seem so certain that he’ll be the champion?” Ling Yu turned her head and asked.
“I’m not sure.” Liu Yuan’s face was serious. “I believe in the power of ideals. Even Senior Cui trusts him. He must have his reasons for asking me to bring him to the Singing Sword Platform.
He really did read the script, alright…?
Originally, the reward for completing the entire quest was also a sword forged by Geng Qi. It was a purple-grade weapon that matched the attributes of the player’s character. Although they both looked like ordinary longswords, their attributes were completely different.
Ling Yu nodded and said, “That makes sense. However, Geng Qi, which swordsmithing master is your Grandmaster? In the history of the Sword Pavilion, there have been less than 30 of the 9-Star swordsmiths. The current City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords is one of them.”
“It’s ‘Boundless Sword’ Ji Zhai, the 23rd 9-star sword forger of the Sword Pavilion,” Geng Qi answered honestly.
Ling Tu was stunned for a moment before she came to a realization. “It’s the swordsmith who fell in love with the head of the Xuanyin family two generations ago. I heard that he did leave the Sword Pavilion after that and disappeared without a trace. I didn’t expect him to have taken in a disciple after living in seclusion in the forest.”
Geng Qi scratched his head. “Grandmaster’s wish was still to return to the Sword Pavilion and prove that feelings in the world are far more important than cultivation. That’s why Master didn’t teach me cultivation. He only taught me forging.”
Ling Yu blinked her eyes and was still in shock. How could he smith a magic tool without cultivation?
However, whether it was Cui Ting or Liu Yuan, they did not seem to care about this. Instead, they were very confident… Well, they could not be said to be very confident, just that they did not find it unbelievable.
Liu Yuan pointed at the scabbard on Geng Qi’s back, “Just now, Senior Cui said that his scabbard is not simple.”
Geng Qi touched the bottom of the heavy case and said, “Yes, this is the ‘Soul Casting Scabbard’ that Grandmaster spent his entire life’s effort to forge. It can be forged even without cultivation.”
This thing was simply a divine artifact.
It had three main skills. One was ‘Burning Materials and Fine Jade’, which could directly melt all materials below the void training stage. Another was ‘Clear Sky’s Heart’, which could give the sword a spiritual sense. The last one was ‘Sword in the Sheath’, which could give the sword a physical form.
Although he did not know the principle behind it, it was very mysterious.
Later on, that ‘Boundless Sword’ Ji Zhai used the Soul Casting Scabbard to become the first 10-star sword forger in the history of the Sword Pavilion.
Some of the players had guessed that Ji Zhai had cast his soul into the Soul Casting Scabbard. Simply put, it was not the scabbard that had anything to do with forging, but Ji Zhai himself became the scabbard.
Thinking about it, it was a little scary.
However, it was also reasonable… Ji Zhai and the former Master of the Xuanyin family had fallen in love, and both of them had died alone. Their obsession must have reached the point of stubbornness, and it was reasonable for them to do such a crazy thing.
Ling Yu sized up the scabbard with a surprised look, and his eyes changed. As expected, he felt a faint trace of Sword Intent contained in it. It was clearly just a sword case, but it seemed to be filled with countless swords.
“Then I’ll have to look forward to watching the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event.”
Ling Yu smiled encouragingly.
No matter what, the matter of a mortal challenging a swordsmith from the Sword Pavilion was something worth looking forward to.
The three of them quickly arrived at the city’s Singing Sword Platform.
A high platform made entirely of black iron stood between the city wall and the long green mountain behind it. Chains extended to the plank road between the cliffs and connected to a huge sword on the platform.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Jade Snow mountain range was right behind the Singing Sword Platform, and the rumbling waves of the White Dragon River were just a few feet away.
He did not feel it in the city, but he could clearly hear it at the Singing Sword Platform.
It was more than a hundred times more spectacular than the game.
Liu Yuan was amazed. He looked up at the Singing Sword Platform and the steep cliff behind it. The cliffs on both sides were thousands of feet high, and the top could not be seen. Countless chains could be vaguely seen on the left and right. It was a terrifying sight to see.
From time to time, small stones could be seen falling from the sky.
This was the north side of the City of Ten Thousand Swords. Beyond it was the Shu state, which was in the mortal realm. This Dragon Gate mountain stretched from east to west, with 72 peaks that were shaped like sharp swords and pierced through the clouds. The White Dragon River that flowed from north to south cut it in half, making the cliffs face each other. It was extremely steep.
After that, roads and passes were artificially opened up. Along the road, cliffs were chiseled and flying beams were set up, forming a dangerous and narrow passage called Shu Road. After that, the top sect, Sword Pavilion, was formed by sword forgers.
The Sword Pavilion occupied the nine peaks of Dragon Gate mountain, and the iron chains were connected to the nine towers. The iron chains crossed the steep peaks, forming a chain bridge above the White Dragon River that was difficult to cross.
Every year at the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event, hundreds of sword-forging furnaces built on the cliffs of the Sword Pavilion would open at the same time.
The smoke rolled like ink and the fire burned, burning the iron chain red like blood. It collided with the river and sea, making a thunderous sound. The White fog spread for hundreds of miles, making people see a white dragon rising into the sky. At the same time, ten thousand swords cried in unison, which was extremely spectacular.
This was the grand occasion of watching Tideviewing and Sword-listening event.
Later, the people of the Sword Pavilion added all kinds of formations to Shu Road, which became a barrier for this sect that specialized in swords.
However, most of the time, only a small part of these formations would be activated as a trial for the inner disciples.
At this moment, the Singing Sword Platform was bustling with people, all of whom were cultivators who had come to register.
Ling Yu was wearing the robe of the Jade Mirage Sect and was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. The Immortal cultivators consciously made way for her and then cast strange looks at Liu Yuan and Geng Qi.
Liu Yuan stopped in front of the stage and said, “Daoists Nun Ling Yu, I’ll take Geng Qi to the Sword Pavilion. You can go and register first.”
Ling Yu thought that since he had Cui Ting’s communication jade talisman as a token, he should be fine, so she nodded in agreement.
Liu Yuan brought Geng Qi onto the stage and said, “Don’t panic later.”
When Ling Yu heard this, she felt that something was not right. After pondering for a while, she suddenly reacted. Her pupils shrank and she suddenly turned her head, “Wait, which route are you taking to the Sword Pavilion? ”
“Shu Road.” Liu Yuan’s voice had already drifted far away. Ling Yu raised her head in a daze and watched as Liu Yuan grabbed Geng Qi’s figure and landed on the plank road above the Singing Sword Platform.
Crank–
The sound of a mechanism spinning suddenly rang out, and on the plank road, stones rolled and fell down.
The disciples of the Sword Pavilion looked back in surprise and then exclaimed, “Someone has entered the array formation!”
