Chapter 1409 (Raw 1400): Mysterious Demon

"Senior Shadowless Saber Sovereign, we are going to the Saber Washing Pool. Are you coming with us?"

Wen Ziran walked over and addressed Xiao Chen, who was in the war chariot, interrupting his thoughts.

Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and put away the Lunar Shadow Saber. Then, he said, "Brother Wen, please just address me as Shadowless. The Saber Washing Pool's fame has spread far and wide. Naturally, I have to go and take a look."

Wen Ziran smiled faintly and said, "In that case, let me lead the way for you."

After saying that, Wen Ziran immediately mounted a horse, and the Cycle War Chariot closely followed behind. A large group trailed the chariot, everyone showing an excited expression.

This time, it was all thanks to Xiao Chen's appearance. Otherwise, Wu Xiaotian definitely would not have permitted so many people to go to the Saber Washing Pool together.

Xiao Chen had heard of the Saber Washing Pool long ago. Since he came already, he could not miss out on it. After soaking the Seven Deadly Sins in it, he might be able to raise their quality by another level. Furthermore, the seven Divine Weapons were all part of one set.

If Xiao Chen raised the quality of all seven Divine Weapons and combined them, they might be as strong as a Transcendent Divine Weapon.

Unfortunately, the Lunar Shadow Saber could not be drawn. Otherwise, it would be perfect.

However, Xiao Chen reminded himself not to attach too much importance to this. Then, he took out something else and looked at it.

It was a medallion filled with murderous intent. There was a simple "saber" word carved on it. Wu Xiaotian had not explained anything about it to him.

However, Xiao Chen guessed that this was some kind of inheritance between Saber Sovereigns, passed down through every generation.

If anyone defeated him and snatched away the Saber Sovereign title, he would have to hand over this medallion. This was a kind of ceremony that every generation of Saber Sovereign had to follow.

Xiao Chen considered it for a while, then gathered his Spiritual Sense into a thread, planning to properly investigate this medallion.

The moment his Spiritual Sense entered, Xiao Chen felt a strong suction that felt like it was pulling in his entire soul.

After feeling his surroundings spin around, a desolate world appeared before him. The sky was primal chaos and the ground was void.

When he looked in front, he saw a magnificent hall. He walked forward, feeling suspicious.

"Pan Huang Hall!" Xiao Chen muttered when he saw the signboard on the hall after he got close.

[TL Note: Pan Huang means coiling monarch. However, I have verified that this is a name and not a title. Note that Wu Xiaotian's saber is called the Coiling Monarch Time Saber. It is likely in honor of this.]

"Hello, young man who inherited Lord Pan Huang's Saber Sovereign title."

The sudden voice startled Xiao Chen, causing him to move back hastily. Only then did he discover a young woman with crossed arms, who had appeared in the air beside him at some point in time.

Xiao Chen frowned and said, "Who are you? What is this place?"

"I am the Saber Sovereign Medallion's Item Spirit. You can call me Qing Yun. This is the world inside Pan Huang's Saber Sovereign Medallion." The young girl, Qing Yun, introduced herself unhurriedly and patiently.

Every generation of Saber Sovereign showed the same expression when they first came here. After seeing this too many times, Qing Yun no longer found this strange.

"Who is Pan Huang? How is he related to Senior Wu Xiaotian?"

Qing Yun smiled and said, "You really ask a lot of questions. However, as you are the new master of the Saber Sovereign Medallion, it is my duty to answer them. Pan Huang is the one who forged this medallion. He can be considered the first-generation Saber Sovereign of the Kunlun Realm. Wu Xiaotian is one of his inheritors."

The person who could forge the Saber Sovereign Medallion had to be an absolute expert without a doubt.

However, Xiao Chen had never come across this Pan Huang person before in historical records. Could it be that this Pan Huang also left this abandoned land and erased all traces of himself in this world?

However, this was not the time to consider this question. Xiao Chen pointed at the hall gates and said, "Alright, got it. Can you help me open the hall gates?"

Qing Yun shook her head and said, "I can't do that. You have to open the gates yourself. Only after stepping through the gates will you be the master of this Saber Sovereign Medallion. Right now, you are just qualified to try. Everything still depends on you."

Xiao Chen did not hesitate. He stepped forward and pushed hard.

"Pa!"

The huge force rebounded and caused Xiao Chen so much pain that he almost vomited blood. Hence, he had to get serious.

Qing Yun explained, "Stop trying. Unless your strength can rival a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor, you will not be able to push it open."

Xiao Chen was not too disappointed. He only asked, "What's in there?"

"Nothing much. Pan Huang left behind a Lightning Pool that can continuously improve a bladesman's Saber Domain. There are also the will sculptures of past Saber Sovereigns; you can fight with them and temper your Martial Techniques. There is also the Comprehension Platform, which can help bladesmen comprehend Saber Energy—"

"Wait, is this the Saber Energy you were talking about?"

Xiao Chen interrupted Qing Yun, and resplendent spots of light from his sea of consciousness appeared in his palm. Each spot of light was like a miniature sun. There was a total of ten of what Xiao Chen called Saber Energy.

Qing Yun revealed a shocked expression and said, "You truly are a genius. No wonder Wu Xiaotian was willing to pass the Saber Sovereign Medallion to you. In history, there have been only three Saber Sovereigns who comprehended Saber Energy, yet you comprehended Saber Energy even before entering Pan Huang Hall.

"Although this is just a vague form, you will definitely be able to form the complete Saber Energy eventually. It looks like this Saber Sovereign Medallion is not going to be too useful to you. However, you still had best cultivate properly and push open the hall gates earlier. After I teach you how to use this energy, my job will be done."

Xiao Chen came out of the Saber Sovereign Medallion and thought about what Qing Yun said. This should be the benefit that Wu Xiaotian mentioned.

This Pan Huang was rather mysterious. Before Xiao Chen, there was actually someone who could comprehend Saber Energy. Furthermore, this person clearly had gotten even further than Xiao Chen.

The ambient temperature suddenly dropped. Wen Ziran got off the horse in front. They had probably arrived at the Saber Washing Pool.

Xiao Chen pushed the curtains aside. An average-sized pool not far away appeared in his line of sight. Cold Qi drifted over the surface of the water, looking hazy and hard to see through.

"Senior Shadowless Saber Sovereign, please."

Wen Ziran turned his head and performed a gesture of invitation.

"Clang!"

The seven Divine Weapons unsheathed at the same time and turned into beams of light, plunging into that pool. "Chi!" Cold energy pressed over, and Xiao Chen's body quivered as if his soul was trembling. His entire body felt very comfortable; the sensation was even more intense than when he had a breakthrough in cultivation.

Even more joyful were Xiao Chen's seven Divine Weapons. They moved about wildly in the pool, completely losing control.

The Eternal Ice was indeed mysterious.

After a long time, the Divine Weapons started to sink. All sorts of impurities came off their surfaces without stopping. By the time they reached the bottom of the pool, they looked brand-new, shining with bright light.

"That will do," Wen Ziran said softly.

"Whoosh!" Seven Divine Weapons shot out of the water.

The frost covering the sabers melted slowly under the sunlight. When it completely melted, the light that the sabers gave off was scintillating, dazzling everyone. The Divine Might that they contained put even stronger pressure on everyone.

"The Saber Washing Pool truly lives up to its reputation. The Shadowless Saber Sovereign's Divine Weapons grew at least ten percent stronger."

"My saber is not a Divine Weapon. It should not have any problem growing thirty to fifty percent stronger."

When the bladesmen waiting behind saw the obvious effects, they all became excited.

Xiao Chen sheathed the sabers with satisfaction. The war chariot moved away, making space for the people behind.

"Only ten bladesmen can go at the same time. Everyone, please line up in an orderly fashion. There is no need to rush; everyone will have a chance." Wen Ziran waved his hand and let the ten great bladesmen of the new generation go first. At the same time, he managed crowd control.

"Friend, please don't cut in line."

However, an ordinary-looking, white-clad man did not listen but walked forward curiously, looking at the water.

"Hey, hey! Didn't you hear that? Go to the back of the queue." Zhao Feng could not help going forward and patting this person's shoulder.

However, the white-clad man did not respond, not even turning his head back. He muttered, "Eternal Ice. A mysterious item of the world is actually used to wash sabers. What a waste, oh, what a waste."

"Did you hear me?!" Zhao Feng said louder than before, speaking somewhat angrily. If this person still did not leave, he would attack.

However, something strange happened. He was suddenly horrified to discover that the hand that patted this white-clad man's shoulder had gotten covered in frost at some point in time.

"Young man, you are really brave. It has been a long time since anyone dared to pat my shoulder." The white-clad man turned around and smiled faintly. However, that smile was so cold that it made others trembled.

This startled Zhao Feng into quickly retreating and chopping off this frozen arm.

"Crack! Crack!" The arm fell to the ground and shattered like ice.
