Chapter 38 – Flying Sword

Chapter 38 Flying Sword

The scroll recorded the technique to control flying swords. After taking a glance, Lin Yi tossed it aside.

It was useless for the most basic things to be so tattered.

Then, he picked up the flying sword and studied it carefully.

It was 20 centimeters long and 5 centimeters wide. Its entire body was dark yellow, and the blade was cold. The tip of the sword reflected a cold light. Overall, it was a flying sword of average quality.

The cultivation world categorized weapons into magic artifacts, spirit artifacts, magic treasures, and spiritual treasures. Magic artifacts were at the lowest level, but this didn’t mean that they were trash.

On the contrary, weapons of a certain level were extremely precious, even if they were the lowest-grade magic artifacts.

Even the sect’s Qi Refinement Realm cultivators couldn’t get their hands on a single magic artifact, let alone rogue cultivators. This flying sword was truly a pleasant surprise for Lin Yi.

He checked the inside and outside of the flying sword, but he didn’t find any abnormalities or divine sense imprints. It was as if… this flying sword hadn’t been refined once.

But didn’t it just kill its previous master?

Lin Yi was puzzled. Even if the previous owner died, the divine sense mark on the weapon wouldn’t disappear immediately. Instead, it would remain for a period of time.

Now, the flying sword looked more like it had never been refined.

Lin Yi recalled how Long Jianan had controlled the flying sword earlier with a strange expression.

Even though the flying sword was moving, it didn’t seem to have the feeling of being able to control it as if it was his arm. Instead, it was similar to how he controlled the steel needles with the Object Manipulation technique.

This… Lin Yi looked at the tattered scroll he had tossed aside and understood a little.

It seemed that Long Jianan didn’t even know this kind of basic sword control technique. Yet, he could still kill in all directions. This was truly a fantasy.

Lin Yi shook his head, grabbed the flying sword, and started refining it.

A flying sword with an owner would require a lot of effort to erase the original imprint, but there was no need for an ownerless flying sword. Hence, Lin Yi easily refined this flying sword.

Activating his spiritual power, the dark yellow flying sword let out a sharp cry, as if it was happy that it had finally met a wise master.

Lin Yi’s heart stirred. The flying sword suddenly grew larger, becoming the size of a door. Lin Yi then leaped lightly and landed on the flying sword.

The cold wind at a high altitude was blocked by the faint barrier that appeared on the flying sword. Standing on it was like standing on flat ground.

“Is this flying?”

Lin Yi stepped on the flying sword and slowly flew above the small courtyard. The fog in the mountains provided him with a good cover.

Lin Yi rose on his sword and looked at the endless hills in the distance. His heart was filled with joy.

After playing for a while, Lin Yi landed on the ground. The door-sized flying sword transformed into a tiny stream of light and hid in his hair.

He sensed the spiritual qi in his body. After flying for such a long time, he had used less than 1/50 of his total spiritual power. In other words, if Lin Yi was willing, he could stay in the air for a long time.

Ordinary cultivators at the fourth level of the Qi Refinement Realm might be able to control swords, but they wouldn’t be able to persist for long. However, Lin Yi was different. After all, he cultivated the core cultivation art of a Soul Formation realm cultivator, the (Azure Wood spiritual energy). Not only was the quality of his spirit energy extremely high, but the amount of spirit energy in his body was also extremely large.

From the start, Lin Yi had walked ahead of everyone.

After putting Long Jianan’s corpse aside, Lin Yi looked at Xia Yining. There were several wounds on this woman’s face, but they couldn’t conceal her beautiful appearance. Her clothes were tattered, and her naked body was exposed through the air.

Coupled with the few ropes tied around her body, it vividly displayed the weakness of a woman.

Lin Yi watched indifferently, his eyes filled with contemplation.

Her injuries were very serious. Even though Lin Yi had given her medicine, it would still take some time for her to recover.

Dealing with this woman was a problem.

When Long Jianan barged into Qifeng Mountain, she should have been awake as well.

In other words, she also knew about the miraculousness of Qifeng Mountain.

However, if she killed him, it would be troublesome if her grandfather really had the ability to trace back.

Lin Yi wasn’t afraid of wild chicken organizations like the Heavenly Court. He still maintained a certain level of reverence toward official organizations. With such a large territory under his control, it was hard to say if there were any methods he didn’t know of.

Xia Yining slowly opened her eyes. This kind of peaceful sleep made her feel like she was sleeping in her bedroom at home.

However, the unfamiliar environment she saw when she opened her eyes still made her understand that she was still in the outside world.

She moved tentatively and was pleasantly surprised to discover that the rope that had been binding her had been untied.

“You’re awake?” An unfamiliar male voice came from the other side.

“Who is it?” Xia Yining jumped up from the ground and shouted sternly.

As she spoke, she suddenly realized that the injuries on her body had completely healed. After tens of days, she once again felt a sense of comfort.

Xia Yining looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome young man sitting on a stool, drinking tea while looking at her indifferently.

“There’s no need to panic. Long Jianan is already dead,” Lin Yi said calmly. “The corpse isn’t far behind you. You’ll know when you take a look for yourself.”

Xia Yining turned her head and saw the Long Jianan who had held her hostage for many days. However, the arrogant Long Jianan from the past had now become a cold corpse.

“You were the one who saved me?” Xia Yining recalled the huge plant in the killing formation and the warm feeling. How could she not understand what had happened? Her voice turned from cold to warm as she asked softly.

“Coincidence.” Lin Yi didn’t comment. “No matter what the reason is, it’s you who saved me, benefactor.” Xia Yining naturally understood what ‘coincidence’ meant. If it wasn’t for Long Jianan courting death, she wouldn’t have survived either. She bowed respectfully and said, “I won’t forget this debt of gratitude if I don’t die. There’s no need to be polite if you need my help in the future.”

“Mhm.” Lin Yi nodded. “Speaking of which, I do have something I need to trouble you with.”

“Just say it.” Xia Yining was a little puzzled.

“This is my place of seclusion. I don’t want to be disturbed by too many people yet. I hope you can keep this a secret for me.”

A look of understanding flashed in Xia Yining’s eyes. “Benefactor, I will definitely keep my mouth shut and not tell anyone.”

“You might have misunderstood me,” Lin Yi said with a smile. “I want you to swear on your Dao heart that you won’t leak anything about me and this mountain.”

“Dao heart oath?” A question mark appeared above Xia Yining’s head. “What is that? A type of oath? Alright, as long as my Benefactor is at ease, forget about one type of oath, you can even make me swear a few more types.”

Lin Yi was speechless. This fellow didn’t even seem to know about Dao heart vows.

“Alright, I’ll write it out. You can read it accordingly.” Lin Yi waved his hand and interrupted.

“Oh.”

Lin Yi took out a pen and paper and wrote down the oath before handing it to Xia Yining.

Xia Yining looked at the paper and read it out word by word, “I swear on my Dao heart that I will be conservative… If I violate this oath, my cultivation will not advance an inch.”

After she finished reciting the oath, Xia Yining felt a mysterious feeling rise in the depths of her heart. It was as though if she violated this oath, her cultivation would truly be unable to advance.
