At the very same time, Andariel was rejected by Alex’s body, and she tumbled to the ground.Her clothes were torn, and she looked absolutely petrified. There was a long and deep wound on her shoulder.A sword prodded out from Alex’s shirt and floated up mid-air, emitting a deadly aura.This sword was the Xavion Sword.The two demons trembled in fear as they saw the emperor’s sword. They couldn’t believe their eyes. Cydaea quickly came out from Jade’s body and knelt down with Andariel.Andariel and Cydaea were two of the three demons from Xavion Tomb.Although it was supposedly the tomb of Emperor Xavion, the truth was that the emperor hadn’t died. His actual body had evolved into a saint, and the buried one was actually the sword.The three demons’ relationship with Xavion Sword was closely knitted. No one knew that these demons were the slaves of this very sword.Huff…Alex let out a breath as he woke up.He’d been hypnotized by Andariel and Cydaea's seductive spell, immerse
Andariel and Cydaea were both trapped in the Demon Cleansing Tower. If it weren’t for his bamboo forest, they would’ve been dead long ago.If they left this forest, their bodies and souls would be shredded by the tower’s frequent gusts of astral wind, which were as sharp as a knife.Hence, that was exactly why they wanted to take over Alex and Jade’s bodies just now in order to fight the astral wind.Yet, the circumstances were different now with the appearance of the Xavion Sword. As slaves to the sword, they could both hide within it.However…“Swordmaster, we demons can only enter this tower; we can’t leave it. But as the saying goes, heaven never bars one’s way. You’re a human, so you naturally do not practice the ways of demons.”“Since this tower was created by God and followed the Path of God, there is a safe trail for humans to follow, but… we have no idea where it is.”“We’d thought that you’d opened the entrance by yourself just now, and that you’d have the Ancient Div
Although the Ancient Divinity had repaired and refined the Demon Vase into the tower, its original source was still the red gourd. Even if it’d been repaired after being cut into half, there was still a scar. The healed wound couldn’t compare to the original innate gourd. It was much weaker.Thus, the Ancestral Bodhi Tree could pass through this weak spot and leave this place.As Alex got the answer, he immediately asked Andariel and Cydaea if they knew where Heaven's Mark was.The two demons shook their heads as they had never heard of such a thing.Yet Andariel then said, “Swordmaster, there’s a limit to both our powers. After being thrown into this tower, we could merely survive under this forest’s protection.”“We don’t dare explore what’s outside this forest, but I know someone who might know where this the Heaven's Mark is.”“Who’s that?”“The Peacock Heavenly King!”Alex and Jade had never heard of such a person, questioning the sisters about him.The two demons seeme
Jeremy was dead. He died peacefully and quietly, without making a sound.Jeremy himself probably didn’t understand how a half-stepped Incarnate Deity like him could die. It was especially because he had led a long life, leading the Returning Sword Sect to become the greatest sect in America. After the recovery of spiritual energy, the dojos of the spiritual valley had reopened too. It was the best time for the Returning Sword Sect to become stronger, even as great as Stoermer Sect.However, at such a critical time, Jeremy died. Moreover, he died so easily, without anybody knowing.Cydaea offered him a cup of tea politely, and his life ended just like that.He was unresigned to such a fate!If God had given him a second chance, he would’ve never followed Alex into this tower… He might’ve not even come to Terra Mountain. He would’ve worked hard in Yukon, making the Returning Sword Sect invincible.However, there was no turning back.After that, Andariel and Cydaea entered the Xa
Alex nodded. “Can’t you?”Jade brushed her bangs aside like an embarrassed little girl. “I don’t think this is a universal ancient language.”“It is.”“Quit lying. I know more than half of them.”“It’s like our language now. There’s the simplified version and the traditional version. According to the era, there are other differences, such as the oracle bone script, bronze script, or a small seal script. This was the writing used during the Middle Bronze Ages.”Jade’s pretty eyes blinked awkwardly as she felt her face heat up. Her disciple, of all people, was teaching her about different writings.“What does it say?”“Hmm, it’s like classical literature. Let me translate for you. It says… Gaea was envious that the Grand Priest could command all the demons. But in contrast, she was slowly losing her status and powers.“She was no longer a necessity to the demons. In order to regain her place as queen of demons and her control of them, she planned and led the Fuzen War intending t
“What’s that?” Jade came over and took the box from Alex’s hand. “It’s pretty heavy. How could this tiny box weigh at least five hundred thousand kilograms? What’s inside it?”The box was entirely black.There were no patterns that indicated any mechanism on it, and after Alex had observed it for a while, he still couldn’t find any runes. Most importantly, the box couldn’t be opened.Jade took out the Martello Celio. “Let me take a hit at it and see if it’d open.”Alex quickly stopped her. “Don’t smash it. Don’t! If you hit it, it might be ruined. If I’m guessing correctly, this was probably left here by Yuno. She can’t take it out of this tower, and she’s going to come back for it once she’s powerful enough. Fortunately, I could bring it to her.”Jade pouted her lips. “Hmph! She’s definitely your woman. Look how protective you are of her!”Alex said, “I’d take good care of your things too.”Jade snorted. “I’m not your woman.”Alex searched within the ruins again to make sure
This hadn’t been a big issue at first. She had been ecstatic at Jeremy’s death, but the problem now was that they didn’t know how to close the entrance to the Demon Cleansing Tower. If the door wasn’t closed, the force field to Fuzen Tower couldn’t be opened either.Back then, when the Ancient Divinity placed the Demon Cleansing Tower here, he must’ve considered this problem. When the Demon Cleansing Tower entrance was opened, the outer force field couldn’t be opened to prevent the demons from escaping.However, this was a tragedy to the Rakshasa Temple—it meant that they were permanently trapped here.***At the time, the Flying Eagles were still outside the force field. They were waiting for Alex and Jade to return.Therefore, Xerxes and the others knew what had happened within the force field and heard the people’s conversations…In an instant, everyone’s mood was down.A few days passed, and Alex and Jade weren’t back yet. They felt as if the two had indeed died.Gilbert as
Why couldn't Jade just wait until the Returning Sword Sect was destroyed? It was because she truly despised its members. In comparison to the Rakshasa Temple, the Returning Sword Sect was the most humiliating and hurtful to her and the Flying Eagles—the Returning Sword Sect was the first of the six ancient sects, and the Flying Eagles were the first to face them. The origins of this sect were unknown at the time. When Flying Eagle's people arrived at the door, the two sides opened it to the end of the war. The end result was imaginable. A dreadful defeat! Half of the Flying Eagles' battle group was sacrificed. What a tragic death! Among them, Jade's best sister died at the hands of the Returning Sword Sect. She vowed to avenge her. Before this, her strength was insufficient; she had been suppressed and did not even have the room to fight back. But now, things were different... "Wait a second!""The Returning Sword Sect in Yukon, the current Yukon, has been operated
