The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 2845 - 2820: Water Mirror Sword!

Lin Bai didn’t rush to hand over the jade slip to Edsword Lord, instead, he first asked for the Water Mirror Sword.Edsword Lord smiled faintly, "Since I promised you, I naturally won’t go back on my word. Well then, I’ll give it to you first!"

While speaking, Edsword Lord took out a transparent sword from his storage bag!

This sword was particularly peculiar; it seemed to have only a hilt, with the blade being transparent.

Edsword Lord handed this sword to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai grasped the hilt, and as his spiritual power moved, the sword seemed to come alive, with the blade suddenly vibrating, and the transparent body becoming sharp.

"This is the Water Mirror Sword, an Emperor-Level Spiritual Tool."

Edsword Lord said indifferently.

Lin Bai checked it out, and even though he hadn’t seen the Water Mirror Sword before, he trusted his own intuition that this sword could not be wrong.

"Thank you, Sword Lord!" Lin Bai put away the Water Mirror Sword and simultaneously took out another item from his storage bag.

This was a jade slip made of jade, engraved with some texts.

As Lin Bai took out the jade slip, the entire main hall of the Ed Clan was filled with an indescribable Daoist rhyme aura, holy and melodious, even Edsword Lord showed a hint of amazement on his face.

"Daoist Rhyme!"

Although Edsword Lord was one of the current peak Strong Ones on the Barbaric Ancient Continent, his cultivation had not yet comprehended the existence of Daoist Rhyme.

Lin Bai handed over the jade slip and said to Edsword Lord, "This is the item I managed to take from the mountain cave. It seems to be an invaluable treasure!"

Edsword Lord held the jade slip, carefully examining the text on it, his expression growing increasingly delighted, "This is a scripture hand-copied by a Taoist Realm Strong One!"

"Even after such a long passage of time, this Daoist rhyme hasn’t dissipated!"

"If one can hold this jade slip, in future cultivation, they might step into the Taoist Realm!"

"This is an opportunity to enter the Taoist Realm!"

"On the Barbaric Ancient Continent, this is a treasure enough to easily cause a bloodbath!"

Edsword Lord said, overjoyed.

In the main hall, other warriors of the Ed Clan also looked at the jade slip in Edsword Lord’s hand with ecstatic expressions, their eyes filled with greed.

To the Barbaric Ancient Continent, a Taoist Realm Strong One is akin to a Divine Spirit, supreme, capable of suppressing the Five Continents, looking down at Under Heaven, and a king of this world.

And this fortune jade slip filled with Daoist rhyme, if a warrior uses this jade slip to comprehend the Dao, they might have the chance to step into that ephemeral Taoist Realm!

This is a priceless treasure for the Ed Clan or any warrior on the Barbaric Ancient Continent!

Edsword Lord, after a glance, clutched the jade slip tightly, as if afraid Lin Bai would snatch it back, he said to Lin Bai, "Saint Lin Bai, thank you for your assistance this time!"

Lin Bai nodded and smiled, "It’s nothing, after all, this is our promise and transaction. Besides, I came to the Sword God Family not for this Daoist Rhyme Jade Slip, but for the Water Mirror Sword!"

Edsword Lord smiled, "It seems that the friend of Saint Lin Bai is very important to you, otherwise, Saint Lin Bai wouldn’t have chosen a seemingly insignificant Water Mirror Sword over the Daoist Rhyme Jade Slip."

Lin Bai smiled, "In this world, there are always things and people that are beyond cultivation and fortune!"

Edsword Lord nodded slightly in agreement, then he said, "This time, I owe you, Saint Lin Bai. If you ever need the help of the Ed Clan in the future, just say the word, and the Ed Clan will definitely not refuse if it can be done!"

Lin Bai nodded and smiled, "By the way, Edsword Lord, in that mountain cave, I saw a mural that seemed very interesting!"

Edsword Lord asked, "What mural?"

Lin Bai shook his head and said, "I’m not very sure, but the mural seemed to be about the origins of the Sword God Family!"

Edsword Lord said with interest, "Oh?"

Lin Bai smiled, "The general meaning of the mural is... the Sword God Family was supposedly established by a warrior named Dugu Ye, and then flourished in the hands of Dugu Qing, becoming renowned across the land!"

"Back when Dugu Ye was unrivaled Under Heaven, he took in an orphan named Ye Yi."

"Dugu Ye taught Ye Yi sword skills, and Ye Yi and his descendants vowed to protect the Edgar Clan, never to betray them!"

Lin Bai said calmly to Edsword Lord.

With Lin Bai’s words, a wave of astonishment surged through the entire audience of Ed Clan warriors, who all looked at Lin Bai in shock.

Edsword Lord also stared at Lin Bai in surprise, "Saint Lin Bai, are you telling the truth?"

Lin Bai smiled, "Naturally, it’s true. But what puzzles me is... if Ye Yi and the Ye Clan descendants were the guardians and most loyal servants of the Ed Clan, how did the Ye Clan manage to rise to the same level as the Ed Clan?"

Edsword Lord, bewildered, looked at Lin Bai in disbelief, "So, the Ye Clan was merely the servants of the Ed Clan, but why..."

"As Saint Lin Bai said, why? How did the Ye Clan rise to match the Ed Clan?"

"During that period, what did the Ye Clan do?"

Edsword Lord himself didn’t understand this matter.

Lin Bai said, "If even the Sword Lord doesn’t know, then let’s leave it at that. It seems that during a certain period there were incidents within the Sword God Family that couldn’t be recorded in the annals!"

Edsword Lord nodded and smiled bitterly, "Indeed, the Sword God Family has traversed too long a path with too many happenings, some indeed cannot be recorded in the annals!"

"Perhaps once recorded in the annals, but after the Ye Clan took power, those annals, representing their shame, were probably destroyed by them!"

"Perhaps it is so, hence a massive number of annals in the Sword God Family have disappeared, and the Sword God Family doesn’t know what exactly transpired before!"

Edsword Lord and Lin Bai’s conjectures were basically aligned.

During a certain time, there must have been unrecordable events between the Ed Clan and the Ye Clan, and that one battle led to the destruction of a large number of the Sword God Family’s annals, nearly causing the loss of the family’s Taoist inheritance.

And since then, what the Ye Clan exchanged for might be the qualification to match the Ed Clan.

"If really the Ye Clan’s actions led to the destruction and obliteration of a huge number of Sword God Family’s legacy annals, the Ye Clan truly is immensely guilty!" Edsword Lord said coldly.

At this moment, all the warriors in the great hall of the Ed Clan looked sullen.

Lin Bai chuckled lightly and said, "If that’s the case, I won’t disturb you any longer, I’ll take my leave!"

Edsword Lord, seeing Lin Bai about to leave, shouted, "Lin Bai, are you going to Mu Mountain in three days?"

Lin Bai walked to the door of the hall, chuckling lightly, his voice icy, "Of course, I can’t wait to kill Yejian Jun!"
