Chapter 736 - 736 Origin Of The Death Sword Demonic Abyss
736 Origin Of The Death Sword Demonic Abyss
“For real!” Yu Ling looked at Lu Zhen seriously.
“Interesting.”
“It seems like this Nephew didn’t obtain the title of Strongest Lord of All Races purely because of luck.”
Lu Zhen looked at Zhou Zhou in wonder.
“If that’s the case, I’ll bring some God Spirit-level combat power to the Knight Empire tomorrow.”
“He” changed his mind and said.
The ministers heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment…
Lu Zhen suddenly stood up.
The eunuch behind him immediately understood and shouted, “Leave the court.” This court meeting would end.
Then, Lu Zhen waved his hand and Zhou Zhou and Yu Ling disappeared before they could react.
…
Imperial Palace.
In the imperial garden.
When Zhou Zhou and Yu Ling landed on the ground again, they realized that they had arrived in the blink of an eye. Lu Zhen was sitting on an exquisite table made of God-Tier wood in front of them, drinking tea leisurely.
“My good niece, tell me the details.”
“I’m very interested in how this Nephew helped the Knight Empire relieve the pressure.”
Lu Zhen looked at Zhou Zhou with interest.
When Yu Ling heard this, she subconsciously looked at Zhou Zhou and saw him nod.
When Yu Ling saw this, she told him the truth about Zhou Zhou sending hundreds of millions of troops to clean up the fog monster army near the Knight Empire’s territory.
When he heard that Zhou Zhou might have more than a billion troops,
Even Lu Zhen could not help but gape at Zhou Zhou in shock.
He could manage to garner a billion in troops if he added up all the forces in the Divine Sword Empire.
Yet this nephew, who had just arrived in the High Continent, actually had more than a billion soldiers???
Even if most of the one billion soldiers were new recruits, that was still impressive!
Lu Zhen’s first thought was disbelief.
However, looking at the serious Yu Ling and the calm Zhou Zhou, Lu Zhen felt that this matter was very likely true…
“Tomorrow, I will lead some God Spirits to the Knight Empire.”
“When the time comes, let me see how strong you are.”
Lu Zhen really wanted to see the strength of this strongest rising star of the human race.
Zhou Zhou nodded without hesitation.
“Your Majesty, the Divine Sword Empire is surrounded by the Scarlet Fog army, I’ve seen a lot along the way. Therefore, I’d like to be bold and contribute to the Divine Sword Empire. Even though it might not be of much use, I still hope to give it a try. I hope Your Majesty can agree.” Zhou Zhou said.
“You’re too kind, Nephew.”
“Honestly, the situation of our Divine Sword Empire is actually not very good. We need help now. If Nephew wants to help, we can’t ask for more. How can I dictate what you do?”
“I’ll arrange a general for you later. Just inform him when you want to go there. He’ll bring you there.” Lu Zhen said.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Zhou Zhou smiled and nodded.
“Oh yes, since you’re already here and you said that the remaining Spatial Teleportation Arrays can be opened tonight, the Faction Quests given to you by the Knight Empire should be almost completed, right?”
When Lu Zhen reached the end, he looked at Yu Ling.
Yu Ling was stunned for a moment before hurriedly nodding.
“Of course.”
As soon as she finished speaking,
Lines of text appeared in front of Zhou Zhou.
[System announcement! Faction Quests: ‘Distant Divine Sword Empire’ has been completed!]
[Faction Mission Reward: 78.9 million faction points, diplomatic relations between the Knight Empire and the Divine Sword Empire have been upgraded to the level of ‘Respect’, one Death Sword in the Death Sword Demonic Abyss (not used), 10,000 Empire-level combat Class—the loyalty of the Army Extermination Knight, 1,000 Legendary-Tier Mist Cores have been distributed!]
When Zhou Zhou saw this line of words, he could not help but smile.
He opened the [Knight Empire faction points ranking] and [Elven Empire faction points ranking]. Both of them were still firmly occupying the first place with the advantage of absolute faction points.
Then, he took a deep breath and opened the [Lord faction points ranking] with anticipation.
[Myriad Races Lord faction points ranking]
[First place: Original Spirit Race—True Lord—332,000,600 faction points!]
[Second place: Shepherds God Race – Heaven Chasing Lord – 185,006,000 faction points!]
[Third place: Human—Lord of The Blazing Sun—150 million faction points!]
[Fourth place: Chaos Gods Race—Great One Lord—120 million faction points!]
[5th place: Myriad Spirit Clan — Spiritual Venerable Lord — 81,004,500 faction points!]
…
Zhou Zhou looked at the rankings and nodded in satisfaction.
He had finally entered the top three.
However, when he saw the faction points of the other Lords, he could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
“These guys’ faction points are increasing very quickly…”
“Especially the True Lord.”
“His faction points have exceeded 300 million.”
Zhou Zhou clicked his tongue.
These top-notch Lords were indeed difficult to deal with.
He casually opened the World Channel and found that a few Lords of Cerulean Planet had already discovered the change in his ranking and were publicizing it in the World Channel.
With his current identity, status, and reputation, it wouldn’t be long before all the Lords on Cerulean Planet knew that he had once again become one of the top three Lords in the event.
Those rumors that said he couldn’t make it would naturally not be very convincing.
It only took Zhou Zhou five to six breaths to check this information.
After he came back to his senses, he thanked Lu Zhen and Yu Ling.
“This is what you deserve.”
Yu Ling looked at Zhou Zhou with a strange glint in her eyes.
No matter how one looked at it, the current Zhou Zhou could be considered a benefactor of the Knight Empire.
Therefore, he had already silently occupied a very high position in Yu Ling’s heart.
“Stop flirting in front of me, you two!”
At this moment…
The two of them heard Lu Zhen laugh.
Yu Ling was stunned. Then, her fair face suddenly turned red.
“Your Majesty, what are you saying!”
Yu Ling wished she could stuff her head into the crack in the ground.
However, there was a feeling in her heart that made her blush shyly.
“Your Majesty, I already have a wife.”
Zhou Zhou smiled bitterly.
“It’s normal for a man to have multiple wives.”
“Especially a Lord like you. Even though you’re only a Lord of a kingdom now, you might become an Emperor of the Empire in the future and even have higher power. At that time, if you only have one woman in your life, will you be able to do it?”
Lu Zhen shook his head.
Even though he was a person who focused on the Dao, there were more than 1,000 concubines in the Imperial Palace, so he did not agree with Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou did not say anything.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.”
Lu Zhen didn’t think of changing Zhou Zhou’s mindset in a short period of time. “He” stood up and walked in a certain direction while talking about something else.
“Come on.”
“I’ll bring you to the Death Sword Demonic Abyss and let you choose a good sword.”
“With your attainments in the Sword Dao and your aptitude in the Sword Dao…”
“Tsk tsk.”
“I wonder which powerful sword cultivator’s Death Sword will choose you.”
“But don’t worry, it will definitely not be bad.”
“Niece, come over too. Even though you’ve already been here before, just treat it as an old haunt.”
Zhou Zhou and Yu Ling immediately followed.
“Death Sword Demonic Abyss? What kind of place is that?”
Zhou Zhou asked curiously.
“Niece, tell him.”
Lu Zhen said casually.
“He” couldn’t be bothered to explain such a trivial matter himself.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Yu Ling nodded and looked at Zhou Zhou. When she saw Zhou Zhou’s clear and curious gaze, she could not help but look to the side, not daring to meet his eyes.
She said slowly:
“The Death Sword Demonic Abyss is a special abyss that can accommodate and nurture sword intent.”
“It’s both the Divine Land of the Divine Sword Empire and the Divine Land of our human race. Its status is comparable to the Heroic Spirit Hall of our human race.”
“It’s said that every sword cultivator will infuse their lifelong comprehension of the Sword Dao and their ultimate techniques into their intrinsic divine swords. Then, before they die, they will throw their intrinsic divine swords into the Death Sword Demonic Abyss. After the Sword Master dies, these intrinsic divine swords will also lose their consciousness and become Death Swords in a sense.”
“It’s not until an inheritor suitable for the records in the divine swords appears that these Death Swords will be awakened again and carry out the master selection test.”
“The test of choosing a master is very dangerous. You have to compete with the Sword Devil produced by the divine sword. Only by defeating the Sword Devil and winning can you inherit Senior’s Natal Divine Sword.”
“That’s how the Death Sword Demonic Abyss got its name.”
“Tens of thousands of years have passed.”
“To this day,
there are probably more than a million Death Swords in the Death Sword Demonic Abyss.”
“Among these Death Swords, their previous owners were at least Legendary-Tier sword cultivators. The highest was even a High-Tier Deity-level divine artifact left behind by a High-Tier Deity-level sword cultivator.”
“While there aren’t many,
“However, it also made this place a holy land of the Sword Dao that countless sword cultivators and even God Spirits yearn for.”
Yu Ling said.
Zhou Zhou nodded.
A moment later…
After experiencing three twists and turns and the transfer of two Spatial Teleportation Arrays, they arrived at the Death Sword Demonic Abyss.
