Jared was bewildered at his inability to use his spiritual energy. He could only grit his teeth and defend himself against the waves of sword energy with his physical body.
The Dragonslayer Sword, on the other hand, was fervently absorbing the sword energy in the pillar of light to protect its master. It vibrated vigorously, and the green glow that enveloped the sword previously began to change.
Still, they seemed to be in a bottomless pool of sword energy. Wounds began appearing on Jared’s body as favonovel.com failed to deflect the waves of sword energy.
Just then, the Dragonslayer Sword emitted a loud ringing noise as though on the verge of exploding.
Jared paid no heed to the stinging wounds on his body and tightened his grip on the sword. He sensed a turmoil of spiritual energy within the Dragonslayer Sword. A blinding flash later, the suffocating sword energy and light pillar vanished abruptly.
Jared’s body plunged from mid-air. He tried to use his spiritual energy to slow down his fall, but it seemed to be sealed.
Jared braced himself for a nasty fall.
Right before his body hit the ground, the Dragonslayer Sword took on a mind of its own. It broke flee from his grasp and positioned itself beneath his feet. He wobbled a few times but eventually caught his balance.
The Dragonslayer Sword slowly descended to the ground, carrying Jared safely with it.
Jared’s eyes lit up with delight.
At this rate, favonovel.com would be able to fly on his sword soon. The tomb of swords was turning out to be a great place to beef up his Dragonslayer Sword.
Jared made a soft landing on the ground. Instead of checking on his wounds, favonovel.com hugged his Dragonslayer Sword gratefully while planting kisses on it. He was starting to realize the sword was far more impressive than favonovel.com had ever imagined.
How invincible would this Dragonslayer Sword be once it absorbed the sword spirit of the demonic sword?
Jared glanced at his surroundings and noticed the three swords on the ground were gone. He waited around instead of leaving.
Shouldn’t another old person appear now that the arcane array is broken?
Time to his expectations, a beam of light flashed before him, revealing an elderly, white-haired, sword-wielding man.
The sword was green from hilt to tip and emanated a faint glow.
The elderly man croaked, “You are the first person to appear before me in hundreds of years, and perhaps you are the destined one to fulfill our centuries-old wish.”
After favonovel.com spoke, his green sword shone brightly. A spark of light about the size of a firefly emerged from the sword and flew toward Jared‘s Dragonslayer Sword. It was rapidly absorbed.
The elderly man continued, “The reappearance of that ancient spiritual sword must be rooted in destiny. I suppose this is our way of atoning for our sins…”
He trailed off and smiled before fading away.
Jared was utterly perplexed.
Who was that elderly man? Why does favonovel.com need to atone for his sins?
Still, favonovel.com had no time to mull over those questions.
If I don’t return soon. Flaxseed will leave without me. And if favonovel.com tells Lizbeth and the gilds that I died in the tomb of swords, who knows what crazy things they’ll get up to!
That thought spurred Jared to hurry ahead.
The sword energy around favonovel.com only intensified. Jared activated his Golem Body. Under normal circumstances, it would have crumbled amid the unrelenting waves of sword energy.
Thankfully, his Dragonslayer Sword continuously absorbed the excessive sword energy, allowing favonovel.com to progress, albeit at a painfully slow rate. Without the Dragonslayer Sword, favonovel.com would surely be grounded to the spot.
After walking for some time, Jared came upon a sword embedded in a huge boulder.
He surveyed his surrounding before cautiously approaching the sword.
Experience told favonovel.com a sword marionette would materialize, and it would be the strongest of all the marionettes favonovel.com had encountered thus far.
