Chapter 2 The Prison World Tower!

Looking at the black tower in front of him, Ye Xuan was extremely shocked.

All of this was already beyond his cognition.

Before long, he forced himself to calm down. He knew that this might be an opportunity, of course, it might also be dangerous.

Ye Xuan finally chose to push open the tower door and walked in. Naturally, he was not willing to just walk away now.

After he entered, Ye Xuan glanced around. The walls were painted with a variety of exotic animals he had never seen before, in addition, there were some mysterious runes in purple and gold, some runes were even still squirming!

Finally, his eyes fell on the place not far ahead of him, where there hunkered down a skeleton with a long sword standing beside it.

Ye Xuan’s eyes fell upon the lines on the ground before that skeleton: “I am the Cang World Sword Lord. I began to cultivate my swordsmanship when I was 12, I obtained great achievements in the Tao of the Sword when I was 17 and when I was 21, I was second to none in the Cang World. At the age of 27, I broke my heart by my sword and achieved the supreme Tao of the Sword. I have been trapped in this prison for one thousand and two hundred years. I was unable to leave the tower all my life. Today I know that I will die. I will leave my legacy and I hope my successors can pass it down. If you have sympathy for my feelings, please take care of the Cang World just a little.”

“The Sword Lord of the Cang World?”

Ye Xuan’s eyebrows slightly wrinkled, he had never heard of him. His eyes moved down, below the words, where there was a fist-sized jade!

“The heritage stone!”

Ye Xuan’s blood instantly boiled.

“A sword cultivator!”

In the whole Qing Continent, there were many warriors, but there were very very few sword cultivators, it could be said that they were very rare. Because if someone wanted to be a sword cultivator, it was said that he should have some special spiritual roots first. He knew nothing about spiritual roots, anyway, he only knew that it was very rare.

Subconsciously, Ye Xuan was going to take it. However, when he just moved forward, an invisible force blocked him and made him unable to go any further!

Ye Xuan was astounded!

“I can’t get through?”

“A newcomer?”

At this point, a woman’s voice suddenly sounded out.

Ye Xuan was scared by this unexpected sound. He stepped back a few steps and glanced around, but found no one!

“I heard it wrong?”

As this thought was just raised in Ye Xuan’s brain, that voice rang again, “Who dominates the Tao of Heaven in this world?”

Ye Xuan was stunned, “The Tao of Heaven? What is that?”

After a moment of silence, that voice rang again. “Why are you so weak? No, you were not trapped in here!”

Ye Xuan listened, confused.

At this point, the mysterious woman was a little surprised. “You are not just born with a taoistic body, but you have a dual spiritual root, both of them are all in you. No wonder this Prison World Tower chose you.”

“Born with a taoistic body? Dual spiritual root?”

Ye Xuan was full of doubts, “Predecessor, you are?”

The mysterious woman said, “You have grown up, in principle, so you should be at least be in the secluding realm, why are you so weak? And the foundation of your human body is so poor which is simply unsightly.”

Ye Xuan, “…”

The mysterious woman suddenly asked, “How do you cultivate your physical body?”

Ye Xuan hesitated, and then said, “I lift weights, run with weights, pound my body and so on.”

The mysterious woman coldly said, “Are you living in primitive times? You even cultivate with such a backward cultivation method which really ruined your physique! It spoils your spiritual root!”

Ye Xuan smiled bitterly, “Predecessor, people in Qing City all cultivate like that.”

The woman was silent.

Ye Xuan was speechless. He looked around and still couldn’t see anyone.

In here, weird things were everywhere.

Seeing that the mysterious woman was not talking, his eyes once again fell on the heritage stone in front of him and he made no secret of the fire in his eyes.

“You want to learn the sword?” The mysterious woman suddenly asked.

Ye Xuan quickly nodded, “Yes!”

“Who does not want to ride with the sword and overlook the universe between Heaven and Earth?”

The mysterious woman said, “Your Elixir Field is broken, you can’t cultivate the inheritance of the sword cultivator in front of you.”

After hearing this, Ye Xuan’s face dimmed.

His Elixir Field was broken! Not to mention becoming a sword cultivator, he might not have any chance to become a normal warrior. He could only be considered as a fighter at present.

At this time, the mysterious woman suddenly said, “How about this, I have a way of cultivating the Tao of the Sword which is not the same as the others, do you want to learn?”

Ye Xuan was stunned and instantly said, “Can I learn it without the Elixir Field?”

The mysterious woman said, “It is better without the Elixir Field.”

“I can learn it without the Elixir Field.”

Ye Xuan almost jumped up in excitement, but he still forced himself to calm down. He glanced around. “What are your conditions, predecessor?” He knew very well that there was no free lunch in the world.

The mysterious woman said, “This tower was hit hard in the past. Its nine rules are scattered in this Qing Cang World. The seals on each layer are loose. You are lucky, because when you came in, the sword cultivator in front of you was already dead. Otherwise, I’m afraid you would be a dead body already.”

Ye Xuan, “…”

The mysterious woman said again, “I know that you are wondering what on earth the tower is, but it is meaningless to explain it to you. You only need to know that the tower has 12 layers. Each floor holds a top existence of the world in which there are people, spirits, demons, and even the Tao of Heaven’s soul of a world… The tower could suppress them before, but now, the tower’s seal is loose and can’t suppress them anymore.”

Speaking of this, she paused a little and then said, “What you need to do is to find the Rules for the Tao between Heaven and Earth to strengthen the tower. Of course, you can also choose to let them out.”

“Let them out?”

Ye Xuan went blank and said, “What will happen?”

The mysterious woman said, “There are two results. The first is that they will kill you and take the tower; the second is that you will suppress them and let them work for you. Of course, with your present strength, the probability they kill you should be a hundred percent.”

Ye Xuan smiled bitterly, “It is as much curse as a blessing!”

Seemingly thinking of something, Ye Xuan asked immediately, “Predecessor, are you locked in here too?”

The mysterious woman said, “No!”

Ye Xuan pursued, “Then?”

The mysterious woman said, “You have asked too much.”

Ye Xuan, “…”

The mysterious woman said, “You are now the owner of the tower. Every time you retrieve one Rule for the Tao, not only will your strength will be increased greatly, but your control of the tower will also be greatly enhanced. If you can retrieve the first Rule for the Tao, then you can control the first layer. If you are fighting against someone in the future, you can get the tower to trap the enemy, as long as the enemy is not much stronger than you. Now the tower doesn’t have a single Rule for the Tao, so its function is completely invalid. Not only is the function completely ineffective, but the seal of each layer is also gradually loosening. Once the tower is completely destroyed, the existence held in the tower will be released. Your world will be destroyed, and you should be the first to die.”

Ye Xuan said in a low voice, “Predecessor, do you want me to save all beings of the world?”

The mysterious woman said, “You should save yourself. What is locked up in the second layer is not something good. If it is as expected, in a year at most, the second layer’s seal will disappear completely. At that time, you can say goodbye to this wonderful world.”

Ye Xuan made a deep bow to the front. “Please enlighten me with the cultivation method that doesn’t need the Elixir Field.”

After the mysterious woman went silent for a while, she said, “My way of cultivating the sword is very different from the traditional ways. The level of difficulty is also quite different. It may be better to die than to practice. You have to think through it clearly.”

Ye Xuan laughed at himself. “Now my Elixir Field is broken. There is no other way to go, isn’t it?”

The mysterious woman said, “It is also true. However, I still have to tell you about this cultivation method. You don’t have the Elixir Field, which is just right for my method that needs to take the sword as the Elixir Field.”

Ye Xuan startled, “Take the sword as the Elixir Field? Can this work?”

The mysterious woman said, “Of course, it can. You take the sword as the Elixir Field, but the way you cultivate is not the Tao of martial arts, but the Tao of the Sword. You take the sword as your Elixir Field, the better the sword, the better your Elixir Field. Not only that, in the future, while others practice the Qi, you practice the sword. In days to come, you don’t need to sit in meditation to absorb Spiritual Qi, you just need to find a good sword to absorb. The better the sword, the faster you will improve. If you achieve the initial success in the early stage, your body will become the sword body, then you will be immune to ordinary swords. Not just immune to, but when you appear, you can make all swords surrender to you.”

“All the swords surrender!”

Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s blood began to boil. He was somewhat unable to hold himself back.

At this time, the mysterious woman said again, “Before you came in, did you see the three swords at the top of the tower?”

Ye Xuan nodded, “I saw them.”

The mysterious woman said, “Those three swords represent the three ultimate Tao of the Sword. If you can absorb them into your body and internalize them as your Elixir Field, your strength will reach an unprecedented height.”

Ye Xuan hesitated, and then said, “I see that the three swords seem to be suppressing the tower. If I absorb them, will anything go wrong?”

“How can that happen?”

The mysterious woman replied in next to no time, “Nothing bad will happen. Believe me, I will cover for you.”

Ye Xuan had some doubts. But he knew that he had no other choice at this moment, he could only choose to believe.

The mysterious woman said, “See that sword in front of you?”

Ye Xuan looked at somewhere not far ahead. There was a sword inserted beside the skeleton. The sword was more than three feet long and a finger wide. Its entire body was silver which looked very pleasing to the eye. On the sword, engraved two small characters: Ling Xiao!

“The Ling Xiao Sword!”

The mysterious woman said, “This sword has been confined in here for 1,200 years. Almost 90% of its spiritual strength has disappeared, thus it’s just right for you to use now. I will pass you a piece of the practicing method. You will follow the way described in the method to absorb this sword into your body. You have reached the pinnacle of the fifth self striving realm. If you succeed, you should be able to achieve the sixth Qi varying realm.”

Ye Xuan perceived the meaning in the mysterious woman’s words. Instantly, he hurried to ask, “I might fail?”

The mysterious woman answered, “Perhaps you will!”

Ye Xuanzheng shocked, “Predecessor, please don’t tell me that this way of cultivation has never been used by anyone before!”

The mysterious woman was silent for a while, then said, “Undeniably, it has been used by no one, you are the first one. If you succeed, congratulations, you will be a pioneer.”

Ye Xuan’s expression froze. In a little while, he smiled bitterly, “What will happen if I fail?”

The mysterious woman said, “The sword will break your human body, so you will maybe, should be, probably, perhaps die.”

Ye Xuan, “…”

The mysterious woman said, “Now your Elixir Field is broken, you are already better off dead. Why do you think so much? Just go for it.”

At those words Ye Xuan suddenly turned solemn. “She is right, my Elixir Field has already been broken, so it is a desperate situation now. If I do not fight, not only will I have no hope, but my sister Ye Ling will have no way to live!”

“I must fight for it!”

Ye Xuan nodded, “Come.”

When his voice fell, a white light suddenly engulfed him. Soon, all the information flooded into his mind.

“The Invincible Sword Body Incantation!”

“The human body to become the sword, the sword to be the Elixir Field, the Elixir Field to take in all swords in the world, all swords in the world to nourish the body, endlessly…”

A moment later, a white light suddenly fell on the long sword in front of Ye Xuan such that the long sword trembled slightly, and then it turned into a sword light that went directly into the body of Ye Xuan.

“Ah!”

In an instant, Ye Xuan’s eyes abruptly opened wide, all his facial features were distorted.

“That hurts!”

“It’s a deadly pain!”

At this instant, Ye Xuan felt like his whole body was being cut by a blade, inch by inch!

At this point, the mysterious woman’s voice rang in Ye Xuan’s brain. “The sword has entered your body. You must bear the pain it has caused. If you can’t, you can’t make the sword into your Elixir Field! Not just that, but you might possibly be killed!”

Ye Xuan tightly clenched his teeth and his whole body trembled fiercely.

“To conquer or to die!”

Time went on little by little, Ye Xuan’s ears, eyes, lips, nose, and tongue almost twisted into a grimace. But not only that, his entire body was twitching from time to time. Many times, he was in so much pain that he almost fainted. However, he knew that once he passed out, he may never wake up again.

“Must hold on!”

Just like this, Ye Xuan unbendingly endured. After about a day or so, a slight sword sound suddenly buzzed in Ye Xuan’s body, and in a second, Ye Xuan fell down. At the same time, a stream of Qi suddenly spread out of him!

The Qi varying realm!

In the original position of Ye Xuan’s Elixir Field, there suspended a tiny little sword.

In the tower, a faint murmur suddenly rang out. “I didn’t expect it could…”

It’s a pity that Ye Xuan was passed out at this moment that he didn’t hear this sentence at all.
