Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 993 - 888: Ancient Holy Sword (Part 2)

The Immortal spoke.Duan Gujin was startled by the words, immediately taking a sharp breath. He suddenly understood.

"I remembered, yes, the Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable indeed controls the heavenly tribulation!"

Upon hearing how powerful the treasure was, Duan Gujin's heart was filled with shock.

"You just need to drip your Essence Blood onto it!"

The Immortal said.

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin immediately cut his left finger, letting out a drop of Life Essence Blood.

He dripped that drop of Life Essence Blood onto the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation, and after a while, he felt that something new had appeared in his mind. He instantly realized he had formed a contract with the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation.

"Very good, you are now the master of the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation! From now on, you can wield the power of the heavenly tribulation! This One-sided Heavenly Tribulation is a divine weapon, and its level is difficult to define. If you encounter an extremely powerful expert, they might seize the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation from you! This One-sided Heavenly Tribulation can only be used within the Three Worlds, and not in the Otherworld or Secret Realm! If you forcibly use it in the Otherworld or Secret Realm, the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation will self-destruct! Keep it in mind! Now, you can check if you have mastered those three sword techniques?"

Duan Gujin earnestly memorized every word the Immortal said, then hurried to check his mind.

Indeed, he found a segment of memory in his mind.

Upon examining that segment, he discovered that it was the three sword techniques.

He hurriedly practiced the three sword techniques, realizing after a while that they were not simple.

His mind quickly turned, considering a possibility.

"Could this Immortal be deceiving me? This Immortal asked for my Essence Blood and the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation contract; it's possible he tampered secretly, allowing him to monitor my every move in the future. This Immortal's identity is certainly not simple! Seems I've been monitored all along!"

His eyes flashed, and he said, "Immortal, since you taught me the sword techniques, why not give me an appropriate treasure sword? I have no treasure sword, and even if I perform the three sword techniques you taught me, I can't defeat powerful enemies! I ask Immortal to bestow me an appropriate treasure sword!"

The Immortal ahead laughed softly upon hearing this.

Unexpectedly, despite teaching the sword techniques and providing the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation, the person ahead was still dissatisfied and asked for a treasure sword.

"What kind of treasure sword do you want?"

The Immortal asked mildly.

"An appropriate treasure sword! One suitable for my level, since the Immortal said I can perform Zhao Wuji's Mirror Image Divine Power, if caught by others, or Zhao Wuji, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

Duan Gujin immediately explained.

"Oh, I see!"

The Immortal exhaled impure air, various thoughts flashing through his mind.

Unexpectedly, Duan Gujin asked for a treasure, but apart from the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation, the Immortal's other treasures were immortal grade and too precious for him to give away.

After pondering for a while, he thought of a treasure among his possessions, which was almost useless to him.

"I happen to have a treasure extremely suitable for you!"

His eyes suddenly brightened, and with a wave of his right hand, a Longsword flew from it towards Duan Gujin.

The Longsword rapidly charged at Duan Gujin, slowly descending into his hand when it got close.

Duan Gujin picked up the Longsword, finding it rusty, like it had corroded.

"Is this a treasure sword?"

Duan Gujin was taken aback, not expecting the Immortal ahead to present such a Flying Sword as a substitute.

"This is an Ancient Holy Sword, used to slay Otherworld experts long ago. But during a battle, this Ancient Holy Sword was lost and fell into the Otherworld. After so many years, it's almost scrapped, but its true essence lies in its core, forming a Divine Thought Sword! However, it's defiled. To restore it, only you with the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul can cleanse it. You possess Zhao Wuji's Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, so this Ancient Holy Sword suits you!"

The Immortal said.

"Ancient Holy Sword?"

Duan Gujin felt puzzled, sending his Divine Sense into the rusty Longsword.

After a while, he sensed a genuine power inside, sealed, though he believed releasing it would be very strong.

"I'm off, good luck!"

A low voice announced; Duan Gujin saw the Immortal ahead vanish completely.

His Divine Sense scanned outwards, discovering the Immortal had gone far.

"Tsk tsk, how stingy, afraid I'd ask for things?"

Duan Gujin thought silently.

Since the Immortal had left, he returned to Ascension Academy.

After the report reached the Dean of Ascension Academy, he was bewildered about what to do.

"What is Duan Gujin to that Immortal? Could he be the Immortal's illegitimate child?"

The Dean's mind flashed with such doubts.

A while later, the Dean received a secret order from the Immortal Domain, instructing him to have Duan Gujin face strong opponents frequently, honing him.

The order also revealed Duan Gujin as the disciple of the Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable.

Seeing this order, the Dean took a deep breath; he initially thought the disciples recruited by the Divine World were unremarkable.

However, now he realized there was a disciple of the Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable among them.

The Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable was one of the Six Great Immortal Venerables of Immortal Domain!

A genuine bigwig!

The Dean took a deep breath, meticulously studying the order, fearing any misinterpretation.

"So that's how it is!"

After contemplating for a while, the Dean ordered his subordinates to seal the day's news, outwardly proclaiming that an Immortal Domain Immortal visited.

But he didn't let those who knew the truth earlier reveal anything about whom the Immortal Domain Immortal visited.

The Dean of Ascension Academy knew Duan Gujin's identity was definitely complicated; perhaps he was indeed the disciple of Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable, or held another identity.

An identity beyond his imagination.

For instance, the Dean considered that Duan Gujin might even be the illegitimate child of Annihilation Tribulation Immortal Venerable, a plausible scenario.

Precisely because of this thought, the Dean decided to rigorously follow the order's content.

Back at his residence, Duan Gujin began examining the Ancient Holy Sword.

Earlier, he hadn't thoroughly checked the state of the Ancient Holy Sword.

Now, he had ample time to investigate what was truly going on with the sword.

After a while, he found the rust extremely tough, evidently generated by Exotic Realm Power.

He pondered, considering a possibility.

"Could this rust be left after slaying Otherworld experts by the Ancient Holy Sword? Is it the blood of those Otherworld experts?"

"Maybe I should use the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul to clean the rust from the Ancient Holy Sword."

After thinking for a while, he deemed he should head outside to cleanse the rust from the Ancient Holy Sword.

Thus, he left Ascension Academy, reaching a secluded spot tens of kilometers away.

Ensuring no one was around, he released the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, beginning to infuse it into the Ancient Holy Sword, to see if the power released could impact the sword.

After a while, he took a deep breath, realizing the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul released couldn't affect the Ancient Holy Sword.
