Within a few minutes, the Dragonslayer Sword was in Jared’s hands again while the magic swords were all lying flat on the ground. At that moment, the sword array was deactivated, and the powerful surge of sword energy had vanished too.
Holding the Dragonslayer Sword, Jared could feel its excitement and noticed its strength had greatly improved. Does the Dragonslayer Sword increase its strength by absorbing sword spirit?
As he stared at the Dragonslayer Sword, excitement was written all over Jared’s face. If this is the case, it would be easy to increase the Dragonslayer Sword’s power to a sacred martial arts relic level.
“Jared, can I have a look at your sword?”
Flaxseed glanced at the Dragonslayer Sword in Jared’s hands with a look of envy. “Here.” Jared passed the sword to Flaxseed. The Dragonslayer Sword vibrated in Flaxseed’s hands and exuded a surge of sword energy.
It made Flaxseed loosen his grip, and the Dragonslayer Sword instantly returned to Jared’s grip. “Haha. I’m sorry, Mr. Flaxseed. It seems that the Dragonslayer Sword is not fond of you.”
Seeing that, Jared laughed out loud. “Hmph! It’s just a sword, not a woman. I don’t want it anyway,” scoffed Flaxseed.
After that, they continued their journey, but the vanished sword energy emerged again after some time. It grew stronger as they walked deeper into the forest.
The sword energy directed itself at any living being that trespassed upon this place, whether it was a human or an animal. Jared and Flaxseed could only rely on their strengths to withstand the sword energy.
However, the surge of sword energy was abundant and seemed limitless, while their spiritual energy was not. Jared could bear it with his muscular physique, but not Flaxseed, who had to protect himself with a shield made of spiritual energy.
As they wandered deeper into the place, the sword energy became more and more intense and kept attacking them.
Gritting his teeth, Flaxseed tried his best to withstand it, the effort leading to his forehead being covered in sweat. However, a calm look was stretched across Jared’s face. After all, Jared was much more powerful than Flaxseed.
“Mr. Flaxseed, are you all right?” asked Jared as he glanced at Flaxseed. “This is so suffocating! F*ck, the sword energy is impressive! It’s too much. I wonder where it comes from.”
Flaxseed was puzzled as he hadn’t spotted a single sword along the way. What they had seen a lot of were skeletons. Where is the intense sword energy coming from?
Then, the Dragonslayer Sword in Jared’s hands quivered slightly and exuded an aura to shield Flaxseed from the sword energy.
Soon, Jared noticed the Dragonslayer Sword shaking slightly in his hands. As if being absorbed, the lingering sword energy was all devoured by the Dragonslayer Sword.
At that moment, the Dragonslayer Sword was like a parched person chugging water, devouring the sword energy around them. Flaxseed suddenly felt the pressure on him lessen and let out a sigh.
With the Dragonslayer Sword’s help, they could travel faster. After some time, there was a shift in the air in front of them before a woman dressed in white appeared.
She had an oval-shaped face, thin brows, a delicate nose, and bright eyes. Dressed in a white robe, she appeared irresistibly alluring.
She carried a long sword on her back. Both the sheath and hilt were sky-blue and had a bright tone that sparkled under the light. One could tell it was a magic sword at a glance.
“Who are you? How dare you trespass on the tomb of swords? Leave now! Otherwise, don’t blame me for what I’ll do!” Anger was written all over the woman’s face as she glared at Jared and Flaxseed..
A glint flashed in Flaxseed’s eyes when he saw the woman. Letting out a lecherous chuckle, he said, “You’re such a beautiful woman; too bad you’re just a spirit. What a waste.”
The disappointment was evident on Flaxseed’s face.
