Dragon Blooded War God

Both Sword Roots were of the same level. If one person received both, the Sword Roots would clash in their bodies, resulting in injury. One Sword Root was of the Yang masculine type, while the other was the Yin feminine type, so they were directly opposite in nature. If they were both consumed by one cultivator, there would be unimaginable consequences.

No one had ever possessed two Sword Roots before.

When they clashed, they would either merge or explode.

Wu Guangyu was dead, and Wu Lian did not have any use for two Sword Soul Stones. Therefore, she quietened her mind and focused on the test ahead. If the black sea of swords was the black Sword Soul Stone itself, she was not confident that she could pass the test at her current comprehension level of the Sword Path.

Long Chen was even less confident because he was not a Sword Warrior himself. He knew nothing about the Sword Path.

Fortunately, he was being protected by the mysterious person. There was a transparent halo around him that separated him from the violent sword Qi around him, protecting him from the attacks of the golden sword Qi.

Under the mysterious person’s control, Long Chen gradually sank into the golden sword Qi. It was a golden sea of swords, and he felt like he was being submerged in the ocean.

Sword Path?

Long Chen was mulling over this phrase.

The Martial Path of cultivation was very long. The Four Foundational Realms were just preparing the cultivator to embark on the Martial Path, while the Three Martial Realms were only for strengthening one’s foundation. Beyond the Martial Realms, Long Chen once heard Little Cat mention the Tribulation Realm.

What was beyond the Tribulation Realm, then?

These were all uncertainties. The only thing that was certain was that the Martial Path was very long. Long Chen was still at the bottommost level of the Three Martial Realms, so there was a very, very long road ahead of him.

Although Long Chen had not entered the Sword Path, it was surely not as long as the Martial Path, seeing as it was just the mastery of a type of weapon. It was a branch of the Martial Path.

The path also signified rules. They were the rules of this world.

Just like a drowned man, Long Chen sank in the golden sword sea. Perhaps due to the mysterious person, those blades of the violent, golden sword Qi treated him in a friendly manner, as if he were family. Long Chen quickly merged with them and was not hurt at all.

As for whether you’ll receive the inheritance belonging to me, Feng Yangzi, and my Junior Sister … That depends on your talent …

That was what the mysterious voice had said.

Long Chen was feeling faint. He did not know a thing about the Sword Path, so how could he know how to control the golden sword sea?

“You humans are troublesome. Your cultivation emphasizes comprehension. It’s different for us demons. We only need to strengthen our muscles, demonic Qi, and divine techniques. These three things determine our combat abilities. You humans are just naturally weak. You have no choice but to rely on constant learning to strengthen your weak soul and body, using all sorts of combat techniques to increase your combat abilities. In terms of natural talent, humans are no match for the demon race,” Little Cat said smugly when he saw Long Chen thinking.

“Although you have the ancestral dragon blood and your Martial Soul is the ancestral dragon, you still have a human soul. Therefore, you need to follow the humans’ rules. Despite how strong your body and divine techniques are, you still need to constantly increase your comprehension. Then again, dragons are not part of the demon race. They are perfect beings with not only perfect bodies, divine techniques, and strength, but also far greater control over these rules compared to human beings. Of course, that is just a legend. I also think that it’s a lie. Back in my day, I was far stronger than many dragons.” Ɽ

“What are you trying to say here?” Long Chen glared at him.

“Uh. What I mean is … I can’t help you in comprehending the Sword Path. Just feel it on your own. I am going to sleep!”

“Screw you!”

Long Chen ignored him. Just as Little Cat had said, everything was up to him to comprehend.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The golden sword sea and the hot Yang energy were like boiling water. The golden sword Qi constantly rolled along, and there were gusts of wind that brought with it layers of waves crashing towards the black side.

Long Chen felt a battle spirit within it.

“Yin and Yang neutralize each other. Both sides are in a constant fight. But what does that mean?”

Wrapped within the thick sea of swords, his mind was constantly racing.

Wu Lian was a Sword Warrior who had already comprehended the first stage of the Sword Path. Therefore, she would have an easier time receiving the inheritance than him. However, he also knew that impatience would not help. All he could do was quieten his mind and focus. Only by doing that would he stand a chance of getting it.

If Wu Lian received the inheritance and he did not, she would inherit whatever the mysterious person had, and Long Chen would become useless. Would he even stand a chance to live then?

It was a precarious situation.

The golden sword Qi blades were like fish swimming by his side. They constantly touched his body. He closed his eyes, trying to feel the aura of the golden sword Qi. When he closed his eyes, he felt like the things around him were not sword Qi, but … life?

How could that be? Long Chen thought he was mistaken. Upon closer inspection, it was true. The blades of golden sword Qi were like fish, and the ones around him were swimming obediently. However, the fish in the outer circle revealed their violent and crazed sides. They whooshed and glinted fiercely, rolling constantly in the sea. Their target was the black sea on the opposite side!

Is this a joke? The sword Qi has emotions. Long Chen froze, thinking that he was imagining things.

Sword Qi was released by humans from their swords, and it was under human control. How could it have its own emotions?

He was still utterly confused.

On the other side, the black sea was swirling around Wu Lian gently. About two hours had passed, and this phenomenon meant that Wu Lian had gained slight control over the black sea of swords. The golden sea on Long Chen’s side was still chaotic.

Far above, the mysterious person laughed approvingly towards the black sea.

“This woman is a Sword Warrior and has comprehended the first stage of the Sword Path. Indeed, it was easy for her to start. If this goes on, she will surely receive Junior Sister’s inheritance.”

When he mentioned “Junior Sister,” his tone was filled with gentleness.

“However, this woman has used up her potential. Even with the help of my Sword Soul Stone, she will not be able to reach the Divine Martial Realm. Even if she receives the inheritance, it will not be of great help, and she will not be able to avenge Junior Sister and I.”

His gaze turned to Long Chen.

“This teenager is naturally smart, but knows nothing about the Sword Path. He does not have a Sword Root, but he actually has started to notice the true meaning of the First Stage of the Sword Path. Furthermore, even I cannot see the end of his potential. Just now, faint dragon images appeared when he used that technique to strengthen his essence. Could this teenager be one of the legendary Dragon Warriors?”

Although those were his postulations, he did not dare confirm it.

Regardless, Long Chen could depend on no one but himself. If he couldn't get the Sword Soul Stone, then he would not achieve much on the Sword Path either.

The man watched quietly.

Wu Lian was making great progress. Sooner or later, she would control the whole sea of swords and gain the black Sword Soul Stone. However, there was a lot of hope for Long Chen too. Therefore, the mysterious man watched him more.

Bathed in the golden sea, Long Chen kept touching the golden sword Qi, developing and debunking theories in his head.

As he slowly studied the possibilities, he started to embark on the right path.

In the beginning, he treated himself as part of the golden sea, thinking like a fish. Surrounded by countless fish, he attacked again and again. The fish were friendly to their own, but violent to the enemy!

“These blades of sword Qi really have emotions!”

Just like himself. He was part of them, and he also had emotions. The blades of sword Qi were like tens of thousands of him.

As they rushed ahead again and again, he suddenly saw countless blades of black sword Qi spinning around Wu Lian.

“That woman’s comprehension is surely deeper than mine.”

That image of a whirlpool constantly replayed in his mind. He was a smart person, so he slowly realized what success looked like here.

He had to control this whole golden sea.

“First, I need to get to know the sword Qi. They are all alive. I need to think of myself as one of them. As I follow the path forward, I slowly strengthen myself and gradually convert others into becoming me. In the end, I will be like an emperor, controlling this whole golden sea. Once that happens, I should get the golden Sword Soul Stone!”

Long Chen knew that he had finally found the light at the end of the tunnel, and it was bright!

What happened next was an endless comprehension process.

Long Chen’s Martial Soul found the right method to control the sword Qi. He turned himself into a blade of golden sword Qi, or a fish, in his mind. He imagined himself becoming stronger. Gradually, the golden sword Qi started to circle around him too.

“Indeed, this teenager is a prodigy.” The mysterious man in the sky smiled proudly.

The golden sea of swords started to circle around him. In the beginning, only the sword Qi around him did it, but very soon, the region of sword Qi spinning around him expanded.

Very soon, he controlled three-fifths of the golden sea.

With enough time, he was sure to succeed.
