Chapter 90: The Violent Sword Spirit! The Battle Ring

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

“Little Tian, this is for you from Senior Wujin and Brother Zhao.” On the Floating Ray, Ningning took out a long box and passed it to Yang Dingtian.

The box was cold. It was the box where the quality Bloody Black Gold Sword was kept. However, that sword was long gone.

As soon as he opened the box, he saw a strange sword lying in it. A powerful and violent aura brushed against his face as if it were attempting to swallow him. On top of the hilt, there were two demon nuclei tightly entangled together. The blue one should be the Millennium Owl’s, and the red one should the Xuan Fire Kirin’s that was originally in the quality Bloody Black Gold Sword. Both demon nuclei had slight chip damage, but both looked equally fierce as if each was about to swallow the other.

“What exactly happened?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Brother Zhao discovered this treasure sword on the ground. And Senior Wujin said that this is what remains of the quality Bloody Black Gold Sword. The claws of the Millennium Owl, the Xuan Ice Metal, and both demon nuclei of the Millennium Owl and the Xuan Fire Kirin, these four items were combined under an extremely powerful energy.” Ximen Ningning said, “They gave this sword to you, but they let me hand it over since they were worried that you would not accept it.”

“How can this be? This belongs to Horror Mountain Village, and I’ve already succeeded in my breakthrough. How can I be so greedy to accept such powerful divine weapons?” Yang Dingtian said.

Undoubtedly, this was truly a divine blade. Each of the four items that formed this sword was extremely valuable and rare. What’s more, these four items were combined under extreme pressure provided by a chaotic event. It was obvious how powerful it would be.

Ningning said, “There is a strong violent energy in the sword. Anyone who touches it will be swallowed, even if it is a Guru. Brother Zhao tried to grab it back then. He was assaulted by the energy and blown away, spitting out lots of blood. Senior Wujin said that only you will be able to use this sword.”

After hearing that, Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but reach out to hold this strange sword. At the moment, he was able to see that the shape of the blade resembled the sharp claws of the Millennium Owl.

“Be careful, this is only Senior Wujin’s assumption. Its swallowing energy is extremely powerful,” Ningning said.

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and reached out to grab the strange blade.

Suddenly, an incomparably powerful and violent energy rushed out. It turned out to be as powerful as the ocean and seemed about to directly tear Yang Dingtian into pieces. Yang Dingtian’s body instantly turned ice-cold as if he was about to die.

However, in just a split second, this violent energy shrunk back and returned to the demon nuclei. The strange blade became silent and calm.

Within this short period of time, Yang Dingtian’s body had been completely soaked with his cold sweat.

“Such a powerful sword spirit. Such an insane sword spirit….,” Dongfang Niemie suddenly said in Yang Dingtian’s mind.

“Master, there is a sword spirit inside this sword?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Yes, there is an extremely powerful sword spirit, and it is a sword spirit that cannot be controlled without a strong consciousness,” Dongfang Niemie said. “This sword spirit was formed from the combination of the Millennium Owl and the Xuan Fire Kirin’s demonic souls. Your body has a sliver of their energy, which is why you can use this sword. You can even summon the sword spirit inside, but you must never do that.”

Yang Dingtian asked, “Why?”

“Your mental strength is too weak while the sword spirit is extremely powerful but does not have any consciousness. So using the weak to curb the strong would only result in fatal injury to both parties,” Dongfang Niemie said. “Also, it will have a negative influence on your sword soul cultivation in the future!”

Cultivating the sword soul was the most important thing for Yang Dingtian. It was something he couldn’t risk!

“I understand, Master. I won’t use this sword. I’ll return it to Horror Mountain Village,” Yang Dingtian said.

“That’s not necessary. Even if you don’t summon the sword spirit, it is already a super powerful treasure sword by itself, increasing the power of your Xuan techniques by twenty percent. It is absolutely a divine blade. It is very powerful even if you use it as a normal blade,” Dongfang Niemie said. “Before you head to Fire Cloud Devil Cave to forge a sword soul basic sword, just use this strange sword. Also, when you manage to find the Xuan Fire of heaven and earth to forge the sword soul, the sword spirit inside this treasure sword will be the first soul weapon to be consumed by your sword soul.”

Dongfang Niemie said excitedly, “The soul of the Millennium Owl, the soul of the Xuan Fire Kirin, and that extremely powerful lord of the abyss. If your sword soul is able to consume these three powerful souls right after it is born, I cannot imagine how fast your sword soul cultivation speed will be. Those days when master was cultivating the sword soul, it took five years for the soul weapons that were consumed to be on par with the damaged soul weapon of a Millennium Owl.”

Yang Dingtian felt his blood begin to heat up. He instantly became excited to forge his own sword soul.

In less than five months’ time, the best quality Earth Fire of the Fire Cloud Devil Cave will be unleashed. At that time, Yang Dingtian could bring along his 45 ten-thousand-year-old Bloody Black Gold pieces there to forge his own sword soul basic sword, a sword treasure that would truly belong to him.

But as for now, the most important thing would be the Elimination Match at Cloud Sky City! At the moment, he was already a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist and had the full confidence that he would be able to win the match. Not to mention that he has a strange Millennium Owl sword that adds twenty percent power to Xuan techniques!

“Yanyan, I did not disappoint you. You must also definitely not disappoint me.” In midair, Yang Dingtian looked towards Cloud Sky City, his heart extremely anxious.

“Cloud Sky City, I am coming!”

******

Currently, there were lots of people crowded in Cloud Sky City with a few thousand watching the match on the competition field.

The once-in-a-year elimination battle had almost come to the end. It was already the last match!

Originally, the annual elimination battle wasn’t so huge, and most of the important people of Cloud Sky City would not be present. However, in this year’s elimination battle, all of the important people of Cloud Sky City were present.

On the left side, there were Yang Yan, Tang Boshao, Ximen Ju, and so on, dozens of people who managed a large portion of the city’s forces. There was also the eye-catching beautiful Yang Shishi, who had recently been banished by the Northwest Qin family.

On the right side, there were only two people: Ximen Wuya’s wife, Yang Peipei, and Ximen Lie.” Compared to Yang Yan’s side, theirs was much less imposing.

Also, it wasn’t just all the important people. Thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples were all sitting in the square.

It was the largest gathering in the city over the past few years.

There was only one purpose for Yang Yan to have organized such a huge event, which was to humiliate Yang Dingtian and have everyone in Cloud Sky City lose faith in the man chosen by Ximen Wuya.

Ximen Wuya was the brightest disciple with the highest status in Cloud Sky City. Since he chose Yang Dingtian to be the next City Lord, many people here still held Yang Dingtian in their hearts. Even though his reputation was extremely bad, having been called a madman or useless person, deep down in the hearts of many Cloud Sky City disciples, they didn’t believe it. They couldn’t believe that the previous City Lord could have such terrible judgment.

Thus, to completely dispel the hopes of these people and to strike against Ximen Wuya’s prestige, Yang Yan wanted all of Cloud Sky City to witness Yang Dingtian’s shame and let everyone see that he was useless. Then, in front of everyone, he would officially banish Yang Dingtian from the city.

Only this way would Qin Shaobai be able to take the position of City Lord and wrest control of the city for the Yang family!

As a result, even though there were two people fighting in the arena right now, not a single spectator paid attention. Everyone was staring towards the City gate, waiting to see whether or not Yang Dingtian would return.

As soon as the final match was over, the elimination battle would be officially concluded. Yang Dingtian would be considered to have forfeited and would be immediately exiled.

So at this crucial moment, thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples were engaged in discussions in the square!

…..

“How is Yang Dingtian still not here? Could it be that he’s really scared and has escaped?”

“That’s for sure. You are too naïve. How can you even put any hopes on a mad person like Yang Dingtian? He has run far away by now. City Lord Ximen had bad judgment. He was just an enlightener a few days ago. It is impossible for him to break through and become a Six-star Xuan Martial Artist!”

“Yes, I will swear my loyalty to him on the spot if he is able to achieve that within a few days and recognize him as the future Cloud Sky City Lord.”

“That’s true. If he is able to break through that many times within a few days, that means he is the most talented person of the millennium. If such a person would revitalize our Cloud Sky City, I am willing to give my entire life to him.”

“Hey, dream on! How can a madman like Yang Dingtian be able to break through sixteen ranks within a few days? Stop joking. If he is able to do that, I will chop my head off on the spot!”

“Ai! Yang Dingtian has really let me down. It’s no big deal if he isn’t able to become a six-star Xuan Martial Artist, but the fact that he doesn’t even dare to participate in this elimination battle is too disappointing!”

“Of course he doesn’t dare. If he participates, he will definitely die!”

…..

“Bang!”

One of the disciples was struck and blasted out of the arena grounds.

The final match had ended, and the results of the elimination battle were finalized. The ten lowest-ranking disciples will be kicked out of Cloud Sky City.

“Elder, please announce the results. That useless Yang Dingtian won’t dare come,” Tang Boshao said while laughing.

Elder Yang Yan instantly stood up, holding a hammer and about to slam the huge gong on the side.

“The Elimination Battle has ended….”

“Wait….” Ximen Wuya’s wife, Yang Peipei, stood up and pointed at the sunset. “As long as the sun has not fully set, the elimination battle is not over.”

“But, the battles have already ended,” Yang Yan said coldly. “As for Yang Dingtian, he doesn’t even dare to participate in the battle. How is he qualified to be a disciple of Cloud Sky City, not to mention qualified to be the next City Lord? I really don’t understand how City Lord Ximen ended up choosing such a useless person.”

Then, Yang Yan shouted over the square, “I announce the Elimination Battle has come to an end. Yang Dingtian along with the ten failed disciples will be kicked out of Cloud Sky City!”

“No!” Ximen Lie shouted. “According to the rules set by our ancestors, the Elimination Battle does not end until the sun sets.”

Then, he shouted towards all other disciples of Cloud Sky City, “Do you all believe in City Lord Ximen? If you believe in him, make some noise. Give Yang Dingtian a chance and also give yourselves a chance! Do you believe in City Lord Ximen? Yes or no?”

“We believe…” a portion of those present shouted.

Ximen Lie shouted again, “Do you believe or not?”

“Believe!”

“Believe!”

More and more disciples shouted in agreement as Ximen Wuya held an almost divine position in their hearts.

Yang Yan and the rest of his people had ugly expressions. Even when Ximen Wuya was no longer around, he was still highly respected by all of the disciples.

“Elder, please give Yang Dingtian a chance to prove himself. Before the sun sets, the elimination battle is not considered over yet,” Ximen Lie said.

Yang Yan’s face was cold and looked as if he was about to object. Suddenly, a handsome young man walked towards him and said softly, “Grandfather, give him a chance. At the moment, the higher Yang Dingtian climbs, the greater will his fall be! Let’s just let him die in the arena!”

This young man was Qin Shaobai! He was a talented young man here to fight for the Cloud Sky City Lord position. And when he spoke, his face was filled with gentle smiles while his words were incomparably poisonous.

“Okay then, since you all want to be humiliated, then I’ll grant your wish,” Yang Yan smiled and said. “There are still 15 minutes till sunset. If Yang Dingtian still doesn’t appear by then, that will mean that he has lost the battle. Not only that he will be kicked out of Cloud Sky City, but he will also be listed as the shame of Cloud Sky City forever!”

“Agreed!” Ximen Lie said. Then, he returned back to his position, looking towards the city gate, feeling like he was about to suffocate.

“Yang Dingtian, don’t let me down. Don’t let master’s wife down. Don’t let Yanyan down, and don’t let all the Cloud Sky City disciples who supported you down. If you don’t come, it’s not just over for you but also for Godfather’s prestige!”

Everyone held their breaths, looking at the sunset in the west.

As the sun dipped lower, the hearts of those who supported Yang Dingtian also sunk. Their bodies felt colder and colder!

….

Yanyan wasn’t at the battlegrounds but was standing at the top of Cloud Sky City. As soon as Yang Dingtian appeared, she would be able to show herself as well.

At the moment, the sun had already almost completely set. Yanyan had her baggage with her, was holding a treasure sword in her hand, and was dressed as if she was going somewhere far.

She stared to the west, but Yang Dingtian still had not appeared, and the sun had almost set.

“Yang Dingtian, are you really letting me down? As long as you come back and participate in the battle, even if you lose, I will not leave. I will still be your wife. I will still forgive you. I will still sleep with you and use the Yin Yang Xuan Devouring Arts to transfer my Xuan energy to you. But, are you really going to let me down and push me to the Netherworld Sea?”

Yanyan’s heart was setting like the sun.

At the moment, there was a sudden high-pitch tweet that sounded from the sky in the west.

A beautiful Floating Ray appeared, blocking the spectators’ view of the sun. There were two figures on it. One was Yang Dingtian, and the other was Ximen Ningning.

Yanyan’s heart was instantly delighted, and she shouted with all her might towards Yang Dingtian in the sky, “Yang Dingtian, you dead ghost! You still know how to come back!”

….

As the public watched, the Floating Ray gradually landed on the battle stage.

Yang Dingtian jumped down and bowed respectfully to Yang Yan and the others on the upper stage. “Elder, Yang Dingtian has rushed back to participate in the Elimination Battle!”
