Martial Supreme Esoterica - C55

As the sun slowly set toward the western mountains, the golden afterglow embroidered the peak with gold.

The sword spirit who was sitting on a lonely peak watched the sunset as her heart felt heavy.

Yan Ling and Dao Yin had a fire burning in their lives. They leaned against the dry rations in their pockets.

The sword spirit sat on the mountaintop for a while, feeling a little cold. Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder. Yan Ling’s voice came from behind, “Eat something!”

The sword spirit turned around and saw Yan Ling handing over a piece of dried rations. The sword spirit forced out a smile as she received it.

Yan Ling took some dried meat and wanted to comfort her, but he couldn’t think of anything to say. He sighed and said, “Take care of yourself, when we see Feng Wu in the future, that will be the best meeting.”

The sword spirits knew that he was trying to comfort them, but their hearts felt heavier. They didn’t show it on their faces. Smiling bitterly, they nodded their heads and Yan Ling sighed before turning around and walking away.

He remembered that when Yan Fengwu had first fed him these things, he couldn’t stand the dryness of them, so he vomited them all out. Later on, Yan Fengwu had hunted down two pheasants to roast, and then he remembered that Yan Fengwu, in order to make him blush, wanted to take off all of his clothes and bathe in the river. Instead, Yan Fengwu was so embarrassed that her face turned red and she hid everywhere.

Now that he thought about it, he realized that he had started to like this silly kid.

Why do I always think you’re so stupid when you’re so smart?

Then we misunderstood each other, and you almost died at my hands. Luckily, I managed to control myself, and it was also thanks to your perseverance that I was willing to forgive you, but I never knew what your feelings were for me.

I’ve been asking myself, and I want to ask you, do you like me as much as I like you?

When you threw me to Dao Yin to suffer, I understood that whether or not you like me, I am destined to live for you.

I will no longer seek that answer out of curiosity, because I will never change the feelings you have for me.

Thinking of this, the sword spirit took a bite of the dry rations and chewed on it.

Actually, at this time, no matter what food was in her mouth, it would not taste. Because the bitterness in her heart was already too strong.

Yan Ling looked in their direction and saw Yan Shi Wu expressionlessly chewing the dry rations in her mouth. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he walked to the cave where Yan Feng Wu usually rested.

After a while, Yanling walked out of the cave. He walked up to the sword spirit and handed her a small, shiny silver jar. “This was found in Feng Wu’s cave. Take it.”

The sword spirit looked at the center of her palm. So it was that jar, the honey of the thousand-year-old black locust.

Yan Ling passed the honey to the Sword Spirits and walked back to the bonfire to chat with Dao Yin.

The sword spirit stuck the small jar on her face and also came to the bonfire. As she passed by Yanling, she took the dry rations that Yanling was holding in her hand.

Yan Ling was startled. He saw the sword spirit sitting down on the side. He took out a piece of jade and took out some honey from the jar. He carefully spread the honey on the dry rations and handed it back to Yan Ling.

Then, the sword spirit brought over the dried rations in Dao Yin’s hands. After applying the honey, she returned the dried rations to Dao Yin.

Looking at the two of them staring at her blankly, she forgot to move. She sealed the honey and put it away carefully. Then she smiled at the two of them and said, “Could it be that what you just said is hidden from me?”

The two of them were startled and immediately came back to their senses.

Daoist Master Daoyin said, “We aren’t hiding this from Miss Meng. We saw that Miss Meng was in a bad mood, so we didn’t disturb her.”

“We are discussing our next plan,” Yan Ling said.

The sword spirits said, “Then what do you want to do?”

Adept Daoyin said, “If we want to save Feng Wu, we’ll have to consider further. That Beastking’s condition is that we have to find four swords for him, gather up his devil soul, and release the Ancestral Demons.”

“Actually, his real goal is to use us to deal with the Heavenly Talisman Sect,” Yan Ling said.

Adept Daoyin nodded. “It seems all of this is within the control of the beast king.”

The sword spirit said, “Are you saying that we have always been tricked by the beast kings?”

Adept Daoyin said, “That’s right. From the very beginning, we fell into his scheme. From the moment he had led the remnants of the Demon Nether Sect into the Demon Beast Forest, he had set up a grand revenge plan. “In this plan, the Heavenly Talisman Sect, the Yan family, and the other three sects have all been taken into account by him.”

The sword spirit frowned, “Can you explain it in more detail?”

Dao Yin replied, “He first used the desire of the people in the martial arts world to become an immortal. He used the souls of the demon beasts they killed in the forest to cultivate the Myriad Souls Furnace. He then used the Heavenly Talisman Sect’s ambition to hide in seclusion, causing the Heavenly Talisman Sect to be unwilling to be lonely and the four demon swords to appear in the world. After that, he reached an agreement with the Heavenly Talisman Sect to seize the demon sword and release the two demon swords from the Heavenly Talisman Sect into the first Sword Spirit, the Cloud Sword Spirit. Then, we will use the fact that we killed the demon beasts in his hands to facilitate the completion of the Myriad Soul Furnace, and then reveal a cultivation level of a few thousand years, cooperating with the Myriad Soul Furnace to become the most terrifying character, and use that to threaten us. With our help, we will take back the other two demon swords from the hands of the Heavenly Talisman Sect. ”

Yan Ling continued, “But, the other two demon swords may not have fallen into the hands of the Heavenly Talisman Sect.”

Daoist Daoyin said, “But the territory of the Heavenly Talisman Sect is right outside of the ‘Miasma Sea Ancient Forest’. If we find the demon sword for him, we will be able to avoid the danger of entering a dangerous situation of our own.”

The sword spirit said, “Then what should we do?”

Adept Daoyin said, “Feng Wu must be saved. The King of Beasts and the Myriad Souls Furnace must be rid of these two disasters as well. The plans of the ‘Heavenly Talisman Sect’ cannot be allowed to succeed, so we have no choice but to take the initiative and fight for the initiative.”

“Then how exactly do we do it?” Yan Ling asked.

The Beast King has thousands of years of cultivation, coupled with the support of the Myriad Soul Furnace, none of us are a match for him. Even if Miss Meng managed to retrieve the Sword of Sacrifice, she would still be unable to do so, not to mention the experts from the Heavenly Talisman Sect. The other two Sword Spirits are also against us.

The sword spirit said, “Then what do we do?”

Dao Yin said, “Faced with such a situation, I was prepared to return to the Dao Lord Sect and ask our sect head to help us. However, the power of the Beast King and the Thousand Souls Furnace were incomparable, and only we, the sect head, were not enough.

“The power of the three great sects?”

The sword spirit looked at Daoyin. “Can you persuade them?”

Yan Ling said, “Yes, you’ve said it before. The three sects only care about how to regain their authority in front of the ‘Heaven Cloud World’. They don’t care about the fate of all the people in the world!”

“Even so, I’m not the only one in the three sects that has a lower realm in mind. In addition, the three sects definitely won’t let the Heavenly Talisman Sect’s scheme succeed,” Daoyin said. “With my persuasion, even if they don’t send out all of their forces to help us, they will still send out their experts to assist us.”

Yan Ling nodded his head and said, “What you said makes sense.”

Dao Yin said, “And your mission is to find Yan Qiuyu and Yan Ba. More importantly, we must ensure that both swords, Soul Sacrifice and Beast Mark, do not fall into the hands of the Heavenly Symbol Sect. If necessary, the sword can be destroyed! ”

The sword spirit’s body trembled. “Then what about Feng Wu?”

Adept Daoyin said, “Fengwu?”

The sword spirit said, “Don’t we only need four swords to return Feng Wu from the beast king?”

Adept Daoyin said, “If what I say is necessary, then we will naturally come up with a different way to save Feng Wu.”

“So what you were talking about just now wasn’t a way to save Feng Wu!”

Adept Daoyin said, “Fengwu will definitely be saved. However, our fundamental goal will still be to eliminate the King of Beasts and the Myriad Soul Furnace, dissolving the Celestial Symbol Sect’s plot.”

Yan Ling said, “Once the Beast King and the Myriad Spirit Furnace are extinguished, there is a possibility of saving Feng Wu.”

Dao Yin replied, “There are ways to push others. If the King of Beasts or the Heavenly Talisman Sect were to obtain four demon swords and gather all of the Devil Souls, they would be able to summon the Ancestral Demons. The entire world would be in danger.”

Yan Ling said, “The war between the gods and devils is not something that the human life can endure.”

Daoist Master Daoyin said, “At that time, countless lives will be lost, countless lovers broken up, and countless tragedies will occur.”

Yanling continued, “We cherish our younger brother, Feng Wu, but the thousands of people in this world all have their own younger brothers and their own beloved ones. We can’t just ignore our own feelings and forget about the lives and deaths of these people! ”

“You’re right!” Daoist Master Daoyin nodded his head and was about to put the piece of dried rations smeared with honey into his mouth, but the sword spirit immediately snatched it away. Daoist Master DaoYin was stunned for a moment, then he saw the sword spirit grab the dried rations from Yanling.

“So, you didn’t put Feng Wu in the first place at all.” The sword spirit looked at the two and took a big bite of the dry rations, “I’m not going to give it to you to eat!” As he spoke, he walked into his own cave.

Daoist Master Daoyin looked at Yanling and frowned. “Eh?”

Yan Ling also turned his head to look at Dao Master DaoYin. His brows twitched. “Huh?”
