The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 2819 - 2794: Borrowing the Sword!

Upon hearing Edsword Lord’s narration, Lin Bai smiled slightly and asked, "What level of cultivation does a strong one who suppresses the Five Continents have? Is it a Daoist Realm Martial Artist beyond the Wending Realm?"Edsword Lord shook his head.

Lin Bai looked at Edsword Lord in confusion and asked, "Not Daoist Realm cultivation?"

Edsword Lord laughed and said, "What I meant by shaking my head is... I don’t know either!"

"Perhaps only when you truly reach that step will you understand what it means to have peerless strength that suppresses the Five Continents!"

"I still remember when I once went to meet the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation, and on the Golden Palace, when I looked up at him, I could feel the suffocating power fluctuations emanating from him!"

"That feeling was like standing in front of a Divine Spirit-like existence!"

Edsword Lord’s eyes carried recollection as he spoke faintly, and Lin Bai clearly saw that when Edsword Lord recalled the scene of meeting the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation, his eyes revealed fear and apprehension.

Lin Bai whispered, "Could it be because your cultivation wasn’t high at that time?"

Edsword Lord was amused by Lin Bai’s words and laughed, saying, "When I went to meet the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation, I was already the Sword Venerable of the Edgar Clan and a Warrior of Great Perfection in the Wending Realm!"

"Do you think my cultivation was low?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai’s expression showed some amazement.

If Edsword Lord went to meet the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation at the time when he had Great Perfection in the Wending Realm cultivation, and at that moment, the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation gave him an overwhelming sense of oppression.

This means the Great Emperor’s strength truly reached an irresistible level.

Lin Bai curiously asked, "Edsword Lord, when did you go to see the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation?"

Edsword Lord laughed and said, "More than twenty years ago!"

Upon hearing this timing, Lin Bai suddenly became tense and immediately pursued, "More than twenty years ago, why did you go to meet the Great Emperor of the Central Holy Nation?"

Upon hearing this question, Edsword Lord’s expression noticeably changed, and he casually said, "Actually, it wasn’t a big deal. Just happened to pass by the Central Holy Nation, and if I didn’t pay a visit, the Central Holy Nation might feel our Sword God Family lacks etiquette!"

"Alright, Saint Lin Bai, it seems you have many questions today!"

"Let’s get back to our topic!"

Edsword Lord immediately diverted the topic and laughed, saying, "Saint Lin Bai has sent an invitation, seeking to meet the Sword Venerable. I don’t know what brings Saint Lin Bai all the way from the East Continent to our Sword God Family?"

Lin Bai could also tell that Edsword Lord didn’t want to bring up the events from more than twenty years ago, and it seemed that the strong ones on the Barbaric Ancient Continent were reluctant to mention the events from more than twenty years ago.

During Kunxu, Li Zhengyi was the same. Once asked about the events from more than twenty years ago, his face immediately turned somber.

In the East Continent Academy, Fang Yiyun and Lan Ling were also the same, deeply afraid of the events from more than twenty years ago.

This made Lin Bai even more curious about what had happened more than twenty years ago that made so many heroic figures on the Barbaric Ancient Continent tremble in fear!

However, since Edsword Lord did not wish to bring it up again, Lin Bai did not pursue further and immediately clasped his fists and said, "I traveled through North State, and I happen to arrive at the Sword God Family, naturally I must pay a visit!"

"Otherwise, if word gets out, others might say the Saint of the East Continent Academy lacks etiquette!"

Lin Bai used Edsword Lord’s words to respond to him.

Edsword Lord laughed heartily and said, "You, truly an interesting little fellow. Well, let’s cut the pleasantries, tell me, what exactly are you here for at the Sword God Family?"

Edsword Lord, being an old fox, naturally understood that someone like Lin Bai coming to the Sword God Family was absolutely not just for travel.

Lin Bai smiled slightly and said, "In that case, I shall speak directly!"

"Junior indeed has a request from the Sword God Family!"

Edsword Lord chuckled, "But go ahead, no harm in speaking!"

Lin Bai said seriously, "Junior wishes to borrow the Water Mirror Sword of the Sword God Family for a while!"

"Water Mirror Sword?" Edsword Lord’s expression flickered upon hearing this, looking somewhat surprised at Lin Bai and asking, "What do you need the Water Mirror Sword for?"

Lin Bai said lightly, "A friend of mine has been possessed, and their Divine Souls have fused together. I have heard that the Water Mirror Sword of the Sword God Family can split Divine Souls..."

"Therefore, I wish to borrow it for a try!"

Edsword Lord said with hands behind his back, "Indeed, the Water Mirror Sword is an Emperor-level Spiritual Tool forged with rare Divine Iron from the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

"This Divine Iron is named ’Thousand Souls in One Dream,’ the Sword God Family searched the entire Barbaric Ancient Continent and found only a few, forging them into a sharp sword!"

"This is the Water Mirror Sword!"

"The Water Mirror Sword is not only an extremely sharp treasure sword on earth and heaven, but it also can heavily damage a Warrior’s Divine Soul along with their injuries!"

"While a Warrior’s physical injuries can easily heal, damage to the Divine Soul is hard to recover!"

"If a Warrior with strong power holds the Water Mirror Sword and executes a sword skill, it is indeed possible to separate two fused Divine Souls!"

Upon hearing Edsword Lord’s words, Lin Bai immediately said excitedly, "Then I earnestly request the Sword Venerable to lend it to me. Once done, I will return it to the Sword God Family immediately, ensuring all is well!"

Edsword Lord smiled lightly, "Saint Lin Bai, the Water Mirror Sword is an Emperor-level Spiritual Tool jointly owned by two families within the Sword God Family. Although I am the Sword Venerable of the Edgar Lineage, I indeed cannot directly lend the Water Mirror Sword to you!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai said, "Sword Venerable Senior, if the Sword God Family has any requests, please speak, I, Lin Bai, will not refuse what I am capable of doing!"

Edsword Lord’s lips curled slightly upon hearing this, "That’s what you said!"

Lin Bai smiled and nodded.

Lin Bai knew this old fox, Edsword Lord, wouldn’t give away the rabbit until seeing the eagle.

As the Sword Venerable of the Edgar Clan, lending Lin Bai the Water Mirror Sword is not entirely impossible, especially since Lin Bai came with the identity of the Saint of the East Continent Academy.

But Edsword Lord used the excuse of the Water Mirror Sword being a joint treasure of the Edgar Clan and the Ye Clan to tactfully refuse Lin Bai.

However, once Edsword Lord heard Lin Bai willing to offer something in return, Edsword Lord was immediately delighted.

Evidently, Edsword Lord had been waiting for Lin Bai to say this.

Lin Bai said, "Please speak plainly, Edsword Lord, how can I borrow the Water Mirror Sword!"

Edsword Lord chuckled lightly, "Haha, Lin Bai, as long as you help me with one task, once completed, I naturally will lend you the Water Mirror Sword!"

Lin Bai asked, "What task?"

Edsword Lord said, "Go into the Sword God Path and retrieve something for me!"

"Sword God Path?" Lin Bai furrowed his brows.
