Chapter 1089 - With One Slash, The World Moves
Chapter 1089: With One Slash, The World Moves
In the Chinese server, if Dragon Saber and Heavenly Sword were a legend, then Heaven Crystal Sword was a legend among legends.
*****
The first time Heaven Crystal showed its might, it was at Shaolin Temple’s Punishment Mount.
To withstand Mad Monk’s tenth move, which had the power of those at One with the World Realm, Happy had resolutely crushed the sword casket which contained Heaven Crystal Sword, and the sword will which had laid dormant for a long time was swiftly released to completely crush the full-powered strike from Mad Monk at One with the World Realm. Even Mad Monk’s expression had changed because of it, and he had to fulfill his promise to hand over Shaolin Temple’s supreme classic, Tendon Changing Classic to a non-Shaolin Temple disciple.
It was at Punishment Mount that Happy understood the true power of the sword will from Heaven Crystal Sword. He also understood the power in Heaven Crystal Sword, which was its ability to pierce through the heavens and earth. The sword spirit contained within had only been released for an instant, and it already released a power that could nearly destroy the world. It was, indeed, a terrifying sword.
At that time, Happy already had a vague feeling that the power Heaven Crystal instantly released was so strong that it could withstand a hit from a martial artist who was One with the World. If he could use it one day at will, then he might have no one who could fight against him no matter how big the world was.
Of course, all of it was just wishful thinking.
In Legend of Emperors, the curse brought by Heaven Crystal Sword was not something a normal person could withstand. The ruthless sword will and brutality that filled Heaven Crystal Sword caused no one to be able to use and possess it for a long time. Even Mad Monk had lamented the fact that this divine ancient sword was no longer a pure sword. It was just like Evil King Shi Zhixuan, and the sword spirit in it had split into two, with both possessing completely different personalities. One of them was pure and gentle, and the other was ruthless and fierce. The former only injured enemies, while the latter injured enemies as well as the wielder. The latter could not be controlled.
However, after Heaven Crystal Sword was nourished by Heavenly Lake, it had its ruthless side temporarily suppressed, and Happy obtained the chance to use it for a short moment.
However, Happy’s strength had long since surpassed countless players on this side. In fact, even Evil King, who was at the peak of Myth Realm, could not suppress him. Hence, on the day of the wedding, Happy gave the nourished Heaven Crystal Sword to the person he trusted the most—Young Yu Yan, who was also the current clan lady of Mu Clan.
*****
During that critical moment, Young Yu Yan finally remembered Heaven Crystal Sword.
This sword had always been treated as a trump card that she would only use during the most dangerous moments in a fight. When Shi Feixuan was about to be killed by Evil King, she finally used the card.
Heaven Crystal Sword shone in the world.
The great sword wills formed a light pillar that stirred the winds, clouds, and the spiritual energy in the world.
Boom!
Evil King’s movements were frozen, and he was flung fiercely away.
In the span of a breath, Evil King’s body was enveloped by a powerful, mighty pressure. Then, his body looked as if it was pierced through by countless fierce sword qis.
Even though the flames around him had negated most of the damage, the piercing sword will still managed to pierce through Evil King without facing any obstructions.
This was a pure attack to the mind.
The evil in Evil King’s eyes was instantly crushed.
Thud!
At the same time his body fell limp, he coughed up a mouthful of blood violently on the ground, and multiple thin and long wounds were left on his body.
His clothes were in tatters.
Evil King looked incredibly pathetic right now.
He was not just drenched in blood, the ferocity and imposing presence he possessed just now was also gone. His face was pale, and with an unfocused gaze, he stared at Young Yu Yan while she stood in front of Shi Feixuan with the sword held horizontally in front of her.
He could not believe it!
The young woman he had been underestimating up to this moment actually had Heaven Crystal Sword, an item that defied the heavens!
He reached out and flung his dishevelled hair behind his shoulder before he heaved a sigh in dejection. “The divine sword, Heaven Crystal Sword, has been destroyed since many years ago. I didn’t think that I would be lucky enough to see it shine once more. Oh well…”
Once he finished speaking, he turned his head around and cast a glance at Happy, who had already landed beside Young Yu Yan and Shi Feixuan. Then, with reluctance, he was forced to turn around and leave.
Even though he could tell that the mysterious girl’s strength was still not great enough for her to control Heaven Crystal, he was already internally injured because he forcefully used the evil within him to activate the incomplete Dao Heart Demonic Seed. When Heaven Crystal Sword cut him, he was injured even further, and he was in great danger. There was no way he would be Happy’s opponent.
If he did not leave now, he had to face the danger of being killed!
Whoosh!
Evil King was determined to leave, so he turned around and fled.
Even though he staggered a little when he moved, he was incredibly fast. With just a few jumps, he vanished into the distance.
*****
When Evil King left, Happy grabbed Young Yu Yan, who was swaying on her feet, and he felt his heart ache for her. “Are you okay?”
She shook her head, and she could not help but moan. Heaven Crystal Sword fell on the ground.
Happy quickly grabbed Heaven Crystal Sword in his hands.
A ruthless sword will quickly came cutting at him from the part where his palm touched the sword. The great pain cut deep into his bones from the skin, as if both parts were attacked at the same time.
Just as Happy expected, after that one attack, Heaven Crystal Sword regained its former brutality, and it was continuously invading and damaging Young Yu Yan’s body.
He did not remain idle. Happy quickly brought out a jade casket from his Universe Bag to suppress Heaven Crystal. Then, he put it back into his Universe Bag.
After she took a medicinal pill, Young Yu Yan’s facial color finally regained a red tint, and her face became pleasant to the eye once more.
Once Evil King left, the mighty pressure that enveloped Shi Feixuan vanished at the same time. She struggled to get up from the ground so that she could sit down cross-legged. A light, snow-white veil covered her face at some unknown point of time.
“Thank you for saving me, Sir Happy.”
“Miss Shi, you thanked the wrong person. It’s this lady who saved you. I didn’t do anything.” Happy knew that the NPCs in the game would not care whether the players were wife and husband. He quickly withdrew himself from the situation, because he did not want to take his wife’s quest rewards.
“I will definitely not forget Miss Yu Yan saving me. I will thank her on another day.”
“Miss Shi, you praise me too much.”
Young Yu Yan might be injured, but she had no problem in speaking. She nodded. Then, she received a system notification telling her that she finished the quest.
At this moment, Shi Feixuan brought out that white stone plate in her bosom under Happy and Young Yu Yan’s gaze.
“This is an ultimate technique left behind by Dafo Temple’s divine monk. There are four of them, and each one should have a part of the divine monk’s legacy.”
Happy and Young Yu Yan said nothing.
“This time, if it were not for Miss Shi protecting me with her life, I cannot guarantee that I would have protected the divine monk’s legacy, and Evil King will definitely snatch it away.”
Shi Feixuan seemed to have her heart touched once she escaped from death this time. With a calm expression, she handed Young Yu Yan the stone plate. “Right now, I am injured. It’s not convenient for me to bring it back to Kind Boathouse. Besides, I have nothing valuable with me to protect it. If you don’t mind, please help me protect it. If you can understand the divine monk’s legacy from it, you can also consider yourself to be fated with Buddha.”
Young Yu Yan’s expression was filled with shock and surprise. “That won’t do. This is something you have been protecting all this while, Miss Feixuan.”
“I will definitely be chased down by the evil cult because of my injuries, and it’s not convenient for me to bring them around. Instead of having them be snatched away by the evil cult, it would be better if I handed them to you, Miss Yu Yan. Besides, I’ve suddenly gained some epiphanies after I escaped death this time. I don’t intend to immediately return to Kind Boathouse, and I want to search for a quiet place to see whether I can understand the next realm for Clear Sword.”
‘I knew it!’
Even though Happy managed to remain calm on the surface, his emotions had started surging in his heart. In the end, Shi Feixuan had indeed handed over the stone plate as a reward to Yu Yan.
Because of it, Happy and Young Yu Yan each had a stone plate left behind by the divine monk.
“This is great!” Happy quietly and discreetly congratulated Young Yu Yan through a private message.
Young Yu Yan also calmed down at that moment and received the stone plate.
Ever since Happy told her about the power in Full Winds in Long Skies, she had been very curious. Right now, when she held the tablet in her hands, it was only natural that she was loath to part with it.
“Now, you have two more ultimate techniques. Even if you’re going to spend less time here, no one can surpass you within three years.”
When he heard Young Yu Yan’s words, Happy was stunned before he smiled. “No. The person who will learn it is not me, but you.”
“I don’t want it.”
“I saw the contents in the stone plate. The system didn’t change any settings. I still got Full Winds in Long Skies for the first stone plate. With this move, forget three years, I won’t have any problems running wild in the game for the next five years. As for you, you need to continue holding Heaven Crystal Sword to help me protect Mu Clan. You’re going to be the one understanding this ultimate technique. I will tell you how to do it. Next time, I need someone who can stand as equals with me from Mu Clan in the Chinese server. If that person is you, I will be at ease.”
Happy continued speaking sincerely. “By the looks of it now, the effects are pretty good. Your feat of severely injuring Evil King with just one slash will soon spread out. At that time, I want you gradually move away from the status of Mu Clan’s clan lady to the best swordswoman in the Chinese server.”
When she heard Happy’s words, Young Yu Yan was stunned for a long time, but she did not reject this. She just nodded. “I promise you! But I also want you to promise me something.”
“Go on.” Happy smiled.
“Don’t give up on this place so easily…” Young Yu Yan said seriously.
Happy could not help but laugh. “Silly girl. Are you trying to make arrangements for my funeral or something? I only wish that I can be together with you and that our people in Mu Clan can always secure our place as the strongest, and that our position won’t be shaken. Alright, I promise you.”
When he said his last sentence, Young Yu Yan released a small breath.
The scene of the two hugging out of the blue was incredibly warm and touching.
The elites from Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as Wind and Rain Alliance rushed over from everywhere but stopped in the distance to watch. They just smiled and did not say anything, because they could not find it within themselves to interrupt this couple who were immersed in their tender emotions.
However, quite a number of people talked about the scene they saw just now in their own groups.
It was the powerful sword pillar that no one could hope to block and which had appeared in the form of a light pillar.
Even Evil King had been severely injured by it with just one slash and had to immediately flee from it. This already brought about great shock to the people.
They would not be so shocked if Happy had been the one who forced Evil King away. After all, Happy had already secured the position of the strongest player in the world a few months ago. He had been practicing hard for a few months and never egressed from prison, which caused many people to guess whether Happy had been practicing an even more powerful martial art.
But the person who forced Evil King back was Young Yu Yan, who had remained nameless before the wedding. Right now, she was the clan lady of Mu Clan, a woman who had appeared out of nowhere and instantly became the focus of the entire world. She was rumored to be Happy’s real life girlfriend, and she was a normal female student in the University of South China.
The entire Chinese server’s thoughts toward the clan lady was very normal—she was just Happy’s girlfriend.
But now, from this moment on, they believed that the people in the entire world would know that the clan lady of Mu Clan, Young Yu Yan had severely wounded Evil King Shi Zhixuan with just one slash and forced away a peerless martial artist who was at the peak of Myth Realm!
