“Sword Observation Manual?”
It only took Xu Xiaoshou one glance at the thick book to immediately realize that this was the last straw that had crushed him.
At that time, the scruffy-looking man had chucked the thick ancient book in front of him and uttered some nonsense. His words sent Xu Xiaoshou into such a fit that he had promptly fainted.
“Is this a spiritual technique?”
Xu Xiaoshou gazed at this ancient book with a strange look on his face.
He thought of Elder Sang.
Every time that old man asked him to learn a new thing, he never resorted to encouragement and reward. Instead, he always coerced him into it.
In this situation, it could not be a good thing if he was required to learn it himself.
Infernal Heavens required Infernal Fire Seed.
The prerequisite for Infernal Heavenly Flames-White Flames and Dragon Melting Realm was the Advanced Infernal Fire Seed.
He had not even encountered the latter and had no intention of finding out how to get this big Fire Seed.
Now, this man also embraced Elder Sang’s method.
“This Sword Observation Manual… Can it be a good thing?”
Xu Xiaoshou was a little puzzled. Allowing this content to reside in his mind did not seem to be a good idea.
His spiritual senses reached out to it.
There was a buzzing sound. Xu Xiaoshou suddenly felt a strong tug on his soul. His entire being was sucked into a mysterious black hole.
Everything was black.
It was an endless blackness that was darker than night.
It was lonely and remote, yet desolate and drowning in adversity. The infinite ocean of darkness was immersive as if it originated from the eternal conception of ancient times.
Xu Xiaoshou was astonished.
“Is this an illusion?”
It was very similar to the unusual illusion that formed when he launched the Expertise Passive Skill.
Was it possible that this Sword Observation Manual was as strong as Expertise Passive Skill, so much that it was almost invincible?
“You came.”
A hoarse voice sounded from behind.
Xu Xiaoshou instantly turned around.
He saw the first ray of white in the endless darkness.
That was sword energy.
Or rather, it was sword cognition.
Experiencing the slightly familiar aura on it, Xu Xiaoshou was extremely sure that this was the Sword Cognition in his energy center.
However…
What about the sound?
“Who are you? And where are you?” Xu Xiaoshou yelled.
The voice slightly resembled the man’s, but it was not identical.
Even though it was also hoarse, it was not that rough and unpleasant. By just hearing this voice, Xu Xiaoshou could sense a majestic nobility to it.
‘How extraordinary!’
Hum—
The sword cognition trembled in response. It swayed and wavered for some time before a white figure gradually appeared.
The white light lit up. It was rather blinding in this endless darkness.
Even so, the figure dressed in white was still very vague. His facial features were not distinguishable to the eye.
One thing was unmistakable, which were the many swords the figure possessed.
That was right.
Above this streak of white light, the figure had two gigantic swords strapped to his back in an “X” fashion. One was purple, and the other was gold.
In addition, there were two sabers on his waist: one black and the other cyan.
Xu Xiaoshou was shocked by the awe-inspiring Sword Intent originating from this figure.
Just as he just wanted to ask questions, the voice spoke again.
“Watch closely.”
“I will only perform one sword.”
Xu Xiaoshou was confused.
He did not even know what was going on, but the matter-of-fact tone brought him to a realization.
