Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

Chapter 602: Chapter 317: Sky Slaughter Sword, Immortal Sword Master_2

“It seems that I cannot consume my luck value in a short period.”

Lu Yun muttered to himself in his heart.

The token was equivalent to his pass to the Black-yellow Great World, and he absolutely couldn’t afford any accidents.

A few days later, when Lu Yun was practicing his Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, Xiao Chen finally returned.

Compared to a month ago, his temperament was different; like a peerless treasure sword, he had gone through trials and tribulations, becoming even sharper and deadly. Fiercely ringing, he had advanced into a peerless divine sword.

Wherever he stood, his temperament stood out from the crowd, accompanied by an unrivaled sharpness that made it difficult for others to look directly at him.

“What happened to you?” Lu Yun stood up from the ground, looking at Xiao Chen.

“After fully absorbing the inheritance, my sword body has initially formed.” Xiao Chen revealed a hint of unintentional laughter as he spoke, clearly having gained a lot from this trip.

“Sword body? Is it also a kind of Holy Body technique within the human race?” Lu Yun asked with a smile.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, “My sword body is somewhat different from the three hundred and sixty-five Holy Bodies of the human race, but its potential is no weaker than any of them.”

“That strong, huh? How about we have a friendly spar?” Lu Yun licked his lips, eager to test his skills.

Xiao Chen glanced at Lu Yun and said with a smirk, “Our current strengths are quite far apart, so a spar wouldn’t make sense. Let’s wait until our realms are closer to each other before we have a match.”

“Don’t worry, it won’t be long before I catch up with you.” Despite being rejected by Xiao Chen, Lu Yun was not bothered. As long as he stepped into the Golden Core Realm, he could quickly raise his realm to the peak of the Golden Core Realm.

“Then you’ll have to work hard; I’m waiting for you.” Xiao Chen laughed.

“Let’s go. We have been delayed here for more than a month; we should leave.” Lu Yun suggested. His time was limited and he couldn’t afford to delay.

“No hurry, I still have to retrieve something.”

A few days later, they arrived at the end of the Underground Palace, where endless flames were burning fiercely. In the center of the lava, a huge stone pillar stood tall, like a divine sword supporting the entire Underground Palace.

It was a divine sword, and Xiao Chen had come for it.

“Be careful; I’ll be right back.”

After giving a reminder, Xiao Chen strode forward with his divine light circulating around him. Unfortunately, runes were stirred up in the lava and filled the air, sending him flying back.

“I almost forgot; there’s a killing array here too.” Xiao Chen let out a bitter smile, then released his sword domain, his sword Qi roaring and being incredibly sharp.

Upon sensing the sword domain, the lava surged, the runes manifested, and turned into a long bridge connecting to that pillar supporting the Underground Palace.

Xiao Chen stepped onto the bridge, enveloped in surging flames, and walked straight to his destination.

“Whoosh!”

He raised his right hand, and an overwhelming Sword Intent was poured into the stone pillar. The lava boiled, and the Underground Palace began to collapse.

“Slaughtering Sword, if you don’t wake up now, then when will you?” Xiao Chen shouted angrily, injecting even stronger Sword Intent into it.

Not long after, the stone pillar suddenly trembled, and a torrential sword Qi erupted. The surrounding rocks fell away one after another, revealing its true appearance.

It was a grey-black long sword floating in midair, constantly throbbing and exuding a terrifying sword Qi.

This was the Sky Slaughter Sword.

“You are… Immortal Swordmaster, is that you?”

A voice, seemingly dormant for a long time, echoed within the Underground Palace.

Upon hearing these words, Xiao Chen’s eyes filled with sentimentality.

How many years had it been?

How many years had it been since he last heard this familiar title?

As for Lu Yun, upon hearing the Slaughtering Sword’s words, his pupils suddenly shrank.

The Immortal Swordmaster was already an incredible figure just from the title alone.

“Is it really you, Immortal Swordmaster?” The grey-black long sword trembled excitedly, with its terrifying sword Qi growing even more menacing, causing the entire Underground Palace to shake.

50,000 years ago, it had followed the Immortal Swordmaster into battle, slaughtering its way through three thousand Big Worlds, with countless immortal beings and True Gods falling in its wake.

Finally, it too had suffered irreparable damage and fallen into a deep slumber.

Xiao Chen’s eyes filled with reminiscence, and then he shook his head, saying, “The Immortal Swordmaster has become a thing of the past. My name is now Xiao Chen.”

“Has it become a thing of the past?”

The Sky Slaughter Sword mumbled before saying heavily, “Indeed, even someone as strong as the Immortal Swordmaster couldn’t reverse the situation after suffering such severe damage.”

“Are you willing to follow me?” Xiao Chen’s expression was indifferent as he calmly looked at the Sky Slaughter Sword before him.

“I appeared because of the Immortal Swordmaster, and I exist because of him. Naturally, I won’t betray him. Although you are no longer him, you are ultimately his continuation, and I should follow you.”

Then, the Sky Slaughter Sword changed the subject and said, “However, I will only recognize you as my master after you have achieved the True Spirit.”

“That’s natural.”

Xiao Chen nodded.

With his current strength, letting the Sky Slaughter Sword recognize him as its master would be more harmful than beneficial.

Boom! Due to the emergence of the Sky Slaughter Sword, the underground palace began to collapse completely.

Xiao Chen said, “The underground palace is about to be destroyed. You should take Lu Yun and me out first.”

“Alright.”

As soon as the words fell, the Sky Slaughter Sword’s sword radiance flashed, and a void crack was torn open above the underground palace.

Without waiting for Lu Yun to react, he was instantly enveloped by a force and drawn into the void crack.

After a dizzying moment, he and Lu Yun had already appeared on a mountain peak.

Xiao Chen said, “Sky Slaughter, to prevent the enemies from the past from noticing your emergence, you shall stay in my Sea of Consciousness for the time being.”

“Whoosh!”

The Sky Slaughter Sword trembled violently and transformed into a sword light, entering Xiao Chen’s Sea of Consciousness.

“Immortal Swordmaster? Explain what happened?” After Xiao Chen put away the Sky Slaughter Sword, Lu Yun then asked.

Xiao Chen said: “When we were attacked by the White Lotus Sect, the divine soul controlling my flesh was none other than the Immortal Swordmaster.”

“Then are you the Immortal Swordmaster or Xiao Chen now?”

Xiao Chen, with no intention of concealing the truth, calmly said, “Now, he has completely merged with me, and the Immortal Swordmaster has become a thing of the past. In this world, there is only me, Xiao Chen.”

After a brief pause, he continued, “However, the cause and effect of the Immortal Swordmaster have fallen on me. Once I enter the Three Thousand Big World, I will face many troubles, so I can’t take you with me. Otherwise, you will be contaminated with too many karmic ties.”

Lu Yun nodded. His current strength was far inferior to that of Xiao Chen. If, as Xiao Chen said, he entered the Three Thousand Big World together with him, he would only drag him down.

It would not be too late to help him once he became stronger in the future.

“I have already let the Sky Slaughter Sword cut off the karmic ties between you and me. In the future, try not to mention my existence to prevent my other strong enemies from deducing your existence.”

After Xiao Chen left a reminder, he continued, “With your potential, you should be able to grow quickly once you enter the Three Thousand Big World. I’ll wait for you.”

It took Lu Yun less than four years to cultivate from the True Qi Realm to the peak of the Rune Seed Realm, possessing heaven-defying combat power.

As far as Xiao Chen was concerned, Lu Yun’s talent was even stronger than his own. As long as he entered the Three Thousand Big World, he would become unstoppable.

Lu Yun smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I will catch up with you soon.”

He knew that it was time for the two to part ways, and finally said solemnly, “I hope by that time, you are still alive and well.”

“See you!”

Xiao Chen nodded heavily and immediately turned into a sword light, leaving quickly.

He was heading towards the demon beasts’ stronghold.

Lu Yun waved slightly at Xiao Chen’s retreating figure, and then used the Instant Horizon Divine Ability to disappear from the spot.

There’s only a little over a month left before the departure to the Black-yellow Great World, so he had to make the most of his time.

Half a month later, he returned to the Central Province Imperial City.

Just as he entered Sky Wall City, he ran into Xiao Yun and Xiao Qingyu, the brother and sister duo.

“Brother Lu is finally back.”

“Brother Xiao, Miss Qingyu.”

Lu Yun bowed his hand.

Xiao Yun smiled and said, “Brother Lu, you’ve been in the Great Wilderness for so long. Did you gain anything?”

“The harvest was alright, not too much,” Lu Yun humbly replied.

Xiao Yun said, “In three days, we will hold a tea party to exchange ideas, preparing to contribute to the Morigin for the last time. We unanimously recommend you as the host, Lu Yun. What do you think?”

Lu Yun shook his head slightly and said, “I have reached the limit of the Rune Seed Realm and am preparing to break through to the Golden Core Realm in the last period.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun saluted solemnly: “In that case, allow me to congratulate Brother Lu in advance.”

“Thank you!”
