Martial Supreme Esoterica - C21
“According to legend, when the heaven and earth first opened, the numerous dark fiendish auras in the human world spread, gathering into a physical entity and turning into evil monsters that consume the blood essence of living beings. Amongst the creatures that harmed, the four monsters were the most powerful. They were:
“The four great devils, ‘Soul Devouring Blood Demon’, ‘Dream Swallowing Night’, ‘Vicious Fiends’, and ‘Demons without Mysteries’, these four great devils endanger the world, bringing bloodshed, despair, sorrow, brutal war, and endless confusion to the human world, causing the world to become extremely chaotic.
In order to solve this problem, the Celestial Cloud Realm, which was created in the mortal world, sent out four powerful immortals to deal with these four demons. Although the four of them defeated the four great devils, they did not expect that in the long run, every single one of the negative emotions these four great devils represented had reached deep into the human heart, and they could not completely eliminate them unless they destroyed the mortal world. The four great immortals did not tolerate the destruction of the mortal world.
“Five great sects?”
“That’s right, the ‘Soul Duo Sect’ that mainly cultivates the soul and seeks longevity, the ‘Dragon Valley Sect’ that nurtured spirit beasts, the ‘Heavenly Talisman Sect’ that trained spirit talismans, and the ‘Dao Sect’ that absorbed the world. Of course, there are also the ‘Demon Underworld Sect’ that had already stepped into the wrong path in order to become famous.”
Yan Lingyun continued, “I heard that there were originally only four great sects, because there were only four immortals who had passed down the Tao, and each of these four great sects had a seal placed by the demon sword, while the ‘Demon Nether Sect’ was formed by opponents of the other four great sects, those who had failed in the power struggle. These people formed an alliance and frequently attacked the other four great sects, and in the last battle, they suffered heavy losses and were defeated by the Heavenly Talisman Sect, who was watching on the side.
Yan Feng Tian continued, “In order to get revenge, the Demon Nether Sect sent people to the other three sects to infiltrate the already weakened Soul Duo Sect, Dragon Valley Sect and Dao Lord Sect. They then stole the three treasured swords that they protected, with the intention of using these three demon swords to fight against the extremely powerful Heavenly Talisman Sect. The Demon Nether Sect, which was filled with hatred towards the world, scattered the three swords of the era of chaos into the martial arts world, causing a rain of blood. This is how the legends of the three swords came about. ”
Yan Lingyun continued, “Later on, the ‘Sacrificing Heart’ sword was found by the Yan Clan’s ancestors. As for how to obtain it, no one knows. I heard that the day after the ancestor obtained this sword, five sage-like old men came to the Yan Clan.”
Yan Lingyun said, “They are the ancestors of Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and Sky.”
Yan Feng Tian looked at Yan Lingyun and continued, “These five old men explained the viciousness of this sword to their ancestors and proposed to seal it with a technique. “The ancestors of the Yan family followed their advice and accepted the five elders’ suggestion. They set up a formation and sealed the sword within it. Their descendants would take turns protecting the sword formation.”
Yan Lingyun said, “Sigh, it was coincidental. A hundred years later, the ‘Beast Mark Sword’ from the four demon swords appeared without reason and coincidentally, your grandfather, our father, found it. The five old men recognized that this was one of the demon swords and suppressed it together within the formation.”
“After that, for some unknown reason, the Soul Sacrifice Sword was also obtained by Yan Wu, and he passed it down to Yan Jue. After Yan Jue died in the Martial Arts Competition, the treasured sword went back to the Yan Clan, and from then on, the formation suppressed three demon swords!”
Yan Qiuyu asked, “Since this demon sword is so important, why did you take it out today?”
Yan Feng Tian and Yan Lingyun looked at each other, and both of them let out long sighs. They said, “Sigh, according to the five elders, this formation was specifically set up against the ‘Heart Abandoning Sword’, and now it has suppressed three demon swords. In addition, the power of the three demon swords have been weakened, and the Feng Shui in the ‘Sword Tower’ is no longer suitable for the suppression of the demon sword. “So …”
“So what?”
“So, the five elders entrusted the Yan family with selecting their best disciples to escort this sword to the Heavenly Talisman Sect!”
Yan Lingyun nodded his head, “The three sects have all retreated. The Demon Nether Sect has been torn apart. Right now, the only sect that can seal these three swords is the Heavenly Talisman Sect!” The five elders had also personally come to the Heavenly Symbol Sect to invite their men to the Yan family for their swords. However, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Symbol Sect has expressed that if the Heavenly Symbol Sect members are dispatched, it will easily arouse suspicion. For safety’s sake, they have suggested that we send someone to escort them.
Yan Qiuyu and the other four looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, they understood why Yan Fengtian and Yan Lingyun gathered them in the ‘quiet hall’. He immediately expressed his willingness to escort the three demon swords to the Heavenly Talisman Sect.
Yan Feng Tian and Yan Lingyun looked at each other and said worriedly, “I know you are young and full of desire for new challenges, but this mission is very important and very dangerous. You must take care of it!”
Yan Qiuyu and the other four expressed that they would live up to their expectations.
Yan Lingyun ordered someone to bring out three ancient lacquered sword boxes from the back hall. He said to the crowd, “These three sword boxes are made from thousand-year ‘Spirit Sealing Trees’ from the Heavenly Talisman Sect. They can suppress the demonic nature of the demon sword and store these three swords in a sword box, with Qiu Yu, Feng Wu, and Yan Ba each carrying one on their back. As for which one you want to take, that will be up to you. ”
At that moment, Yan Qiuyu chose the Soul Sacrifice Sword, Yan Ba chose the Beast Mark Sword, Yan Fengwu carried the Sword Box with the Soul Sacrifice Sword on her shoulder.
Yan Lingyun looked at Yan Ling and said, “Yan Ling, your Evil Warding Sword has the ability to restrain the evil spirits. You must carry it with you this time. If anything happens, you will bear the responsibility of sending the evil spirits out!” Yan Ling said, “Nephew understands.”
Yan Lingyun looked at Yan Lengyue and said, “Niece Leng Yue, you are the only female member of this’ Sword Protection Team ‘. With the sword on your back, you won’t need to do all this work, but your mission is extremely important, if you want to use your’ Cold Moon Saber ‘, then you have to be responsible for the safety of all four of them. Of course you have your own safety, but if anyone has any ill intentions with this sword, you can just use’ Cold Moon Saber ‘to chop off their heads!”
“Your niece understands!”
Yan Lingyun took out a stack of spirit talismans and said to Yan Lengyue, “These spirit talismans were specially prepared by the Heavenly Talisman Sect and the five elders for you. Now, I’ll give them to you for safekeeping.
“niece understands.”
Yan Fengtian continued, “Once these demon swords break through the seal, they will affect the possessor’s mentality. Thus, Qiu Yu, Feng Wu, and Yan Ba will each keep one. As for Yan Ling, who has the Evil Warding Sword, Leng Yue, you must not mess with the seal seal mode!”
Yan Lingyun said with a serious face, “If …” If something special happens, you all must guarantee that these three swords will not be controlled by the same person. Furthermore, not a single person will be able to grasp a Demon Sword at the same time as being able to use it to fight against a Demon Spirit.
“I understand!”
“And!” Yan Fengtian’s eyes were sharp as knives, “Once the situation is out of your control, you cannot lose it!”
