The World Of Swords

Chapter 21 The Sword Huanyan Being slightly stunned, Di Hongtian looked at the ancestor of the Wu family. Before his departure, his old wounds had gradually started to worsen and his face was gray with a rotten atmosphere. When Wu Changkong told him about the serious illness of the ancestor, he was not surprised at all. However, he seemed not to be as seriously ill as he had expected. On the contrary, he looked ruddy, with a tall and straight figure, as well as full of energy and blood, so he seemed not abnormal at all as if being in the stages of full recovery.   “Old ancestor, your health. . . ” He felt very doubtful about his situation. "It’s only superficial!" The ancestor shook his head and said, "The doctor is really wonderful and even superior to all the other famous doctors in the world of martial arts. Unfortunately, my root has been rotted and it’s impossible to recover. What I can do now is only try to hold on for a while.” "The doctor adopted special secret methods to motivate my energy and locked it inside my body.  Once my energy has been used up, it will be my doomsday."   Lock all of the blood and vitality in the body?   Di Hongtian was surprised because he had never heard of such a secret method before.   “Is there really no hope at all?” he asked with a frown. The ancestor waved his hand and said, "I know my physical condition very well. It would be very lucky for me to be immune from the pain and suffering in bed to keep the last of my dignity before my death." The ancestor of the Wu family was very open-minded.  "You may leave now, except for Xiaotian." He waved his hand. The disciples of the Wu family left, and Di Hongtian followed the ancestor into the room. "How was your trip? Have you got any clues?" asked the ancestor while they were walking. Although he was not tall and walked slowly, he had a quality of magnanimity. “No.” Di Hongtian shook his head. “In the world of martial arts, there are multiple forces with the Thunder Force Art. Moreover, the one with the Thunder Force Art didn’t show up this time.” "As for the pract.i.tioner of the Thunder Force Art, the most powerful ones should be the Five-Thunder on the Longhu Mountain. The Purple Lightning of the Cult of the Devil is also very strong, but the rest should not be underestimated either, so it’s really difficult to find it out." The ancestor nodded and immediately said, "But if you use yourself as the bait, they will take action sooner or later. Just be patient." Di Hongtian nodded, and he also knew that the world of martial arts was full of undiscovered or unnoticed talents. Moreover, their intentions were incomprehensible and any force might be the murderer. He felt like he was seeking a needle in the ocean.  However, according to his speculation, the clan of Longhu Mountain and the Cult of the Devil were the most suspicious. Among all the forces with the Thunder Force Art, their strength was the strongest. Only they were comparable to the strength of the Sword Villa in those years. The White Horse Temple was the head of Buddhism, while the clans of Longhu Mountain were the head of Taoism. Even among the nine national clans, they were also ranked in the top three, and the Sword Villa was just slightly weaker. "As far as I know, it’s extremely difficult to practice Five-Thunder; even the current generation of masters on Longhu Mountain had never succeeded. If the old guys there were still alive, perhaps one or two of them knew this practice. But it is not so certain." The ancestor shook his head. "The Cult of the Devil also knows the Thunder Force Art. Based on action style, the clan of Longhu Mountain is the most suspicious. . . " Di Hongtian said seriously as he fixed his eyes. When the Sword Villa was eliminated, he was too young to know the whole issue without enough clues. "When the Sword Villa was eliminated, the villa was full of lightning flashes, which greatly resembled the Purple Lightning. Moreover, although the Cult of the Devil has been driven out of the Central Plains by several major national clans and their strength has been greatly weakened, its foundation is still powerful enough with many masters. If they adopt some evil techniques, it is quite possible for them to eliminate the Sword Villa.” The ancestor frowned and thought. "And, such a hide-and-seek strategy is similar to that of the Cult of the Devil."   "However, we should not rule out the other possibilities. After all there are still many powerful clans in the world of martial arts." "Ancestor, I don’t have enough experience, but can you tell me how many clans are practicing the Thunder Force Art?” asked Di Hongtian. "Water, fire, wind, and thunder are the powers of the heaven and the earth, which cannot be controlled by common people. The power of such an art is very uncommon. But the world of martial arts is full of great masters and many such martial arts have appeared in the past years. Now there are more than ten clans with instructors for the inheritance." The ancestor had founded the Wu family by himself, so he knew very well about the forces in the world of martial arts.   As for the destruction of the Sword Villa, he had a.n.a.lyzed the forces in detail many times, but it was still difficult to make the conclusion. The relationship in the world of martial arts was so intricate that every force couldn’t be ruled out. "Xiaotian, as I told you at the beginning, we’re living in the world of martial arts. It’s reasonable for you to take revenge; however, you must understand it’s extremely difficult to succeed, and you must never hasten for a quick outcome, otherwise you will get lost before achieving your own purpose,” the ancestor advised him. After they entered the room, the ancestor rummaged for a while and took out a black iron token for him.   “Family Master Token?” Di Hongtian was very surprised at the token. “Ancestor, you. . . ”    He did not understand what his intention was at that time.   "Countless forces and masters in the world of martial arts are focusing on you and the Sword Zhongfeng in your hand. Although you are very powerful nowadays, you still need more practice to catch up with the real masters. In the following period, you just stay in the Wu family to practice.” The ancestor waved his hand and said, "You don"t have to worry too much. This token is the key to get the Sword Huanyan, which can help you understand the Tianxiang Sword Art."   “Sword Huanyan?” Di Hongtian could not help but reveal his doubts.    He had lived in the Wu family for so long, but never heard of such a sword before. Moreover, it seemed to be extremely special as well.   "I chose to create the family in Jianzhonglin not because it’s a cheap and barren land.” The ancestor shook his head with a smile.   "There are many broken swords here and some are quite special. I have studied them for a long time and found the secret of one sword, the Sword Huanyan.” With these words, the ancestor of the Wu family couldn’t help but reveal a complacent smile.   In the past years, many masters came to Jianzhonglin to search, and only he had discovered the secret hidden in one of the swords.   "My strength nowadays and my capability of creating a family are due to the Sword Huanyan. At the very beginning, I was just a newcomer to the world of martial arts with ordinary knowledge. How come I could create a martial art such as the Tianxiang Sword Art? "   Di Hongtian suddenly felt clear-minded.  It was difficult to create a martial art independently without enough experience and skills. The ancestor was quite outstanding in the world of martial arts when he was young, so it was amazing and almost impossible for him to create the Tianxiang Sword Art, which was comparable to that of the national clans. Only the odds of chance could provide the perfect explanation. "The Tianxiang Sword Art was learned from my introspection on the sword. If you are talented enough, you may also gain a comprehension of the swordsmanship more powerful than mine,” the ancestor said with a smile.
