Chapter 23

Li Yuan looked at the masochist sword and suddenly his eyes widened.

"Wait for a second, doesn't mean this sword is a treasure?!" Exclaimed Li Yuan.

Tier 5 weapons gain sentence when they are made by forging masters. And after Tier 5, there are two ways to make them.

One is to increase the level of the Weapon's Spirit by satisfying it until it achieves a breakthrough to the Level of Tier 6 Weapons then reforge the weapon to make it a true Tier 6 weapon. The second method is to create a Tier 6 weapon which will gain a new spirit.

But, the weapons who were reforged are stronger than the weapons that are created in higher tiers. So a reformed Tier 6 weapon is stronger than a newly created Tier 6 weapon. And it applies to the higher tiers.

This sword's personality is simple and could be satisfied easily by making it suffer some pain. When it compared to the prideful and annoying personalities of the other weapons that take too much time to satisfy, Li Yuan felt that this sword is a treasure!

Li Yuan looked at the crazed Su Tao and said: "Boy, this sword belongs to me now!".

"Li Yuan, you are courting death!" Roared Su Tao as he dashed toward Li Yuan. A Tier 4 Sword appeared in his hand.

The sword can't acknowledge Li Yuan as it masters in this short amount of time. So he wouldn't be able to wield it perfectly.

This is Su Tao's only chance to get the sword back.

Li Yuan smiled and said, " M Sword, I promised you a world of pain and now, I will let you have the first taste of it!"

Li Yuan's Qi, Soul Energy and the Yin Qi that came from his body entered the sword and caused a humming sound to come out of the sword. He was about to initiate one of his strongest techniques.

The Nine Swords of Destruction.

This technique consisted of 9 slashes, each one will be stronger than the previous one by one fold. But, there was a problem. No sword, even Tier 9 Swords were able to withstand all the Nine Slashes and will shatter once they are performed.

For the Tier 5 M Sword, it can only withstand the first three slashes. But, the pain to his spirit will definitely make it satisfied.

The air around Li Yuan changed as he tightened his grip on the M Sword. The Sect Master's eyes sharpened suddenly as she felt the sword intent, Qi and Soul Energy building up in the Sword.

"The first Sword, the Body Destruction Sword."

Li Yuan gently slashed toward Su Tao who was running toward him. Horror appeared on Su Tao's face as the slash was extremely terrifying. He experienced many life and death battles with other swordmasters, and Li Yuan' slash caused him to feel despair.

He released a roar and made his Tier 4 Sword explode in order to escape. He never felt such a sense of hopelessness in a battle before.

BOOOM!

The explosion gave Su Tao the chance to retreat but his face became pale white when he saw Li Yuan change his stance.

"The Second Sword, Qi Destruction Sword!".

This time, Li Yuan's attack was way stronger than before which made Su Tao feel a stronger sense of despair.

He releases a terrifying cry and took out more than three Tier 4 Weapons. As a swordmaster, he has the habit of gathering swords no matter what Tier they were at and would study them.

But, Li Yuan' slash cut through the explosion created by the three Tier 4 weapons and get closer to him.

Li Yuan was taking his sweet time in performing the Nine Swords of Destruction. If he was serious, Su Tao would be already dead. He was just increasing the duration of his attacks to let the M Sword suffer more from the attack's strength.

"Ahhhhh!" A cry of fear came put of Su Tao as he backed away.

"I give up!" He cried out as he was about to piss in his pants.

Li Yuan became annoyed by Su Tao withdrawing from the battle. Still, he ignored him and performed the third slash.

"Third Sword, The Mind Destruction Sword!" Terrifying soul energy merged with his Sword Intent and slashed at the ground where Su Tao was standing.

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

A huge explosion resulted from the M Sword touching the ground. A creator was formed and the M Sword was stabbing the into the centre of the creator. The M Sword was trembling from pain and excitement which caused Li Yuan's eyes to shine.

He sensed that the Sword' Spirit has advanced to the Mid-level!

For Each Tier, The Weapon' Spirits have four levels. Early, mid, late, peak levels.

The M Sword could be considered a Mid Tier 5 Weapon now after suffering from Li Yuan Nine Swords of Destruction.

Li Yuan's lips twitched as he said: " Was satisfying weapons' spirits this easily?!". This sword' spirit might reach the level of the Legendary Tier, Tier 10!

"I have to figure out how the M Sword developed this personality. And then, create a set of armour with the same personality!".

Li Yuan looked at Su Tao was sitting on the edge of the crater with an unfocused gaze. His pants were wet which caused Li Yuan to shake his head and turn away.

"This sword is mine now!" Said Li Yuan before returning to his seat.

The disciples from the Sword Peak Sect rushed to him and checked on him.

"Senior Brother Su!"

"Are you okay?"

Su Tao's body shivered and said "I... I..." He couldn't complete a sentence from the fear in his heart.

Jiang Yi's face was ugly as he saw Su Tao's condition. Not only did he lose, but he also gave Li Yuan a Tier 5 Sword! And Li Yuan is able to wield the Sword to its full potential. Dealing with him now will be near impossible!

He must think of a solution. Otherwise, he will lose the chance to enter the Soul Tempering Tower.

"Magnificent!" The Sect Master couldn't help but say these words. She is also swordmaster and Li Yuan's sword technique has left her amazed. The way he applied the perfect harmony of his soul, Qi and body and merged it with his sword showed that he is a person who is not less talented than her. No, he is better than her in every aspect when it comes to swords.

Li Yuan didn't care about anything as the three slashes have nearly depleted all of his Qi and Soul. He sat on his chair and starting eating the pills in his storage ring to restore them.

"It seems that going to the Nine Yin Palace wasn't a bad thing. I gained a treasure and will enter the Soul Tempering Tower after winning the 2nd Event."

Li Yuan couldn't help but grin a little which caused Fang Ping who beside him to shiver after seeing it.
