"Lord Wei Chen, it is truly an honor for you to visit our Thunder Sword Sect. It brings great glory to us all!" Zhang Shi said with a broad smile.
Wei Chen nodded slightly and replied, "Zhang Shi, let's find a quiet place to talk."
"This way, please." Zhang Shi led Wei Chen to the central barracks of the Thunder Sword Sect.
"Lord Wei Chen, this place is quite peaceful, and there’s no one around. With your strength, you must be well aware that no one can eavesdrop without your notice," Zhang Shi said respectfully, looking at Wei Chen.
With a wave of his hand, Wei Chen set up a Mental Strength barrier. No one could overhear their conversation without his awareness.
With Wei Chen's Mental Strength barrier in place, they could converse freely without worry. Unless someone possessed greater Mental Strength than Wei Chen, it would be impossible for them to detect anything without his knowledge.
Wei Chen looked at Zhang Shi and stated directly, "Zhang Shi, I won’t beat around the bush this time. Let’s get straight to the point."
Zhang Shi hurriedly replied, "Lord Wei Chen, feel free to speak your mind. I assure you I will hold nothing back."
"Good. I appreciate straightforward people like you. Zhang Shi, that Sword Technique is quite powerful; it must have an extraordinary origin," Wei Chen said, narrowing his eyes as he awaited Zhang Shi's response.
Hearing this, Zhang Shi glanced at Wei Chen and chuckled casually. "Lord Wei Chen, to be honest, that Thunder Sword was left behind by the first generation founder of the Thunder Sword Sect. To say it has an extraordinary origin would be an understatement!"
Wei Chen shot a cold glance at Zhang Shi and said, "Zhang Shi, let’s not play games here. I want to know where your first generation founder obtained that Sword Technique and where he is now."
Zhang Shi sighed and replied with a wry smile, "Lord Wei Chen, matters concerning our ancestors happened so long ago that I can hardly know the details. As for where he went later on, I have some vague ideas."
Wei Chen responded with a calm "Oh," and continued, "Zhang Shi, stop keeping me in suspense. Tell me everything you know; it won’t bring you any harm. If you continue to hide things from me, I assure you that you will not enjoy the consequences."
"Lord Wei Chen, please calm down." Zhang Shi hurriedly tried to soothe Wei Chen's emotions. After a pause, he continued, "Our first generation founder, after achieving great mastery in cultivation, went alone to a place called the Sword of Absolute Blade. I only know he went to the Sword of Absolute Blade; the rest is unknown to me."
"Sword of Absolute Blade? Is that a secret realm?" Wei Chen frowned and asked.
Zhang Shi replied, "I don't know either. If I did, I would have pursued him long ago. When our ancestor was around, the Thunder Sword Sect was quite glorious. Unfortunately, he didn't protect us for long before leaving on his own. If he were still here, perhaps the Thunder Sword Sect wouldn't have fallen under the Temple of Martial Arts' control, and we would have already freed ourselves from it."
"Our ancestor mastered the Thunder Sword and was incredibly powerful; even the Supreme Deity might not have been his match. However, once he left, he left behind a mess for me to deal with. I feel deeply inadequate for not being able to lead the Thunder Sword Sect back to glory. It truly makes me feel ashamed."
Zhang Shi's sincerity was evident, and Wei Chen began to understand. The person who left behind the Thunder Sword had abandoned it, leaving the Thunder Sword Sect to Zhang Shi while he pursued higher realms. That so-called Sword of Absolute Blade must be a secret realm; perhaps it had some connection to Killing God Senior's Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords.
Wei Chen looked deeply at Zhang Shi and asked, "Zhang Shi, why did you give me the Thunder Sword?"
"Lord Wei Chen, you are the future Hall Master of the Temple of Martial Arts. With you in charge, frankly speaking, our Thunder Sword Sect cannot break away from the Temple of Martial Arts. Since that's the case, we might as well accept our fate and establish a good relationship with you early on; it would benefit our Thunder Sword Sect. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Zhang Shi explained.
Wei Chen chuckled lightly and said, "Zhang Shi, your calculations are quite clever, but I don't believe it's as simple as just offering me the Thunder Sword. You must have some ulterior motives."
Upon hearing Wei Chen's words, Zhang Shi's expression changed slightly. He remained silent for a while before saying calmly, "Lord Wei Chen, to be honest, I feel that your methods against Privy Hall are somewhat similar to our Thunder Sword. That's why I thought about giving you the Thunder Sword to see if you could master it. If you succeed in cultivating it, our Thunder Sword Sect would have formed a good bond with you. Even if you can't cultivate the Thunder Sword, it wouldn't harm us; at least we would have met you. The future Southern Ming Divine Domain will be yours; this is something everyone in our Thunder Sword Sect understands clearly. Moreover, I sense that you are a person who values loyalty; not turning against us is our greatest hope."
Zhang Shi spoke earnestly as if revealing the truth. However, Wei Chen had been staring into Zhang Shi's eyes throughout his speech and knew that Zhang Shi was lying.
"Zhang Shi, you definitely know something. Just tell me the truth; I swear on my integrity that I won't disclose today's matters to anyone else. Perhaps I also have some information that you want to know? We can exchange intelligence," Wei Chen said calmly.
Zhang Shi shook his head and replied, "Lord Wei Chen, I truly do not know what you're asking about!"
"Hmph! Zhang Shi, don't make things difficult for yourself; my patience is limited! This Thunder Sword gives me a sense of familiarity; if you cooperate well, we can unravel some mysteries right now," Wei Chen sneered.
Zhang Shi quickly explained, "Lord Wei Chen, please don't be angry; I genuinely do not know what you want to find out. How about this: whatever you want to know, just ask me. Anything I can answer will be given without reservation."
Wei Chen nodded slightly, pondering for a moment before asking, "What did your ancestor say when he left the Thunder Sword Sect? Besides going to the Sword of Absolute Blade, what else did he mention?"
Upon hearing Wei Chen's question, Zhang Shi fell into deep thought. After a long while, a spark seemed to light up his face as he replied, "Lord Wei Chen, I remember now. When my ancestor left the Thunder Sword Sect, he told me he was going to the Sword of Absolute Blade to seek the secrets of the Thunder Sword. He felt that the Thunder Sword was somehow diminished and that there should be a stronger version. That stronger version is likely found within the Sword of Absolute Blade."
"What else? Tell me everything you know," Wei Chen said coldly.
Zhang Shi continued, "After mastering the Thunder Sword, my ancestor always felt that it had been weakened by someone. The complete version should be much stronger than the Thunder Sword."
"Then where did he obtain his Thunder Sword?" Wei Chen inquired.
Zhang Shi replied, "He obtained it from the Sword of Absolute Blade. As for what exactly the Sword of Absolute Blade is and where it is located, I regret to say my knowledge is limited, and I do not know of its existence."
Wei Chen thought for a moment before nodding and taking his leave.
From his conversation with Zhang Shi, Wei Chen gathered a wealth of information.
First, Zhang Shi had indeed come to offer a treasure, merely to facilitate matters once Wei Chen became the leader of the Temple of Martial Arts. The White Out incident was just an ordinary treasure offering; nothing particularly significant about it. However, it was somewhat special in that Zhang Shi saw traces of the Thunder Sword in Wei Chen's swordsmanship.
Secondly, it was clear that the Thunder Sword was related to Killing God Senior's Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords; that much was indisputable. All questions now revolved around that Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm.
"Killing God Senior, you heard all that, right?" Wei Chen asked.
Killing God Senior nodded within Wei Chen's True God World and said, "I heard everything. That fellow seems quite sincere; he's not far off."
Wei Chen then asked Killing God Senior, "So what do you think about this matter?"
"It's simple. The Sword of Absolute Blade is a secret realm established by my half-disciple. He neither wants to expose his sword technique nor does he want to keep such powerful swordsmanship hidden; that's why we have this situation now. The first generation founder of the Thunder Sword Sect practiced the Thunder Sword and naturally sensed that there were stronger existences beyond it. Anyone with a strong heart would certainly want to explore further."
The Sword of Absolute Blade sounded like an impressive place. Irresistibly, Wei Chen felt a longing for that location. The Thunder Sword itself might not be strong, but the sword techniques behind it were highly praised even by Killing God Senior, which surely meant they were quite powerful!
After pondering for a moment, Wei Chen communicated with Killing God Senior, "Killing God Senior, if that's the case, did your half-disciple also come from that world to the Endless Divine Realm?"
Killing God Senior smiled wryly and replied, "Pretty much. According to our recent speculation, he should have arrived in the Endless Divine Realm and even created a modified version of the Thunder Sword that was spread around. The first generation founder of the Thunder Sword Sect is his disciple. That first generation founder was not satisfied with just the Thunder Sword; he sought to obtain the stronger Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords and went to that place known as the Sword of Absolute Blade."
Wei Chen quietly sorted through his thoughts. The Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords and Mental Attack Technique were created by Killing God Senior. He had passed them on to someone whose mental strength was insufficient to support them without True God World, but that person had great talent and was a genius in swordsmanship. Relying on the Mental Attack Technique, he created his own version of the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords.
Then, something unexpected happened, and that person also arrived in the Endless Divine Realm, founding a place called Sword of Absolute Blade and taking on disciples, including the first generation founder of the Thunder Sword Sect. However, he was clever; he didn't dare expose the Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords and instead created a Thunder Sword. This way, he fulfilled his wish to spread sword techniques without revealing too much.
In fact, anyone with profound abilities would not think about taking their unique skills to their grave; they would seek opportunities to find successors. This is a common trait among all powerful individuals. No one wants their hard-earned techniques to become lost to time.
Even someone like Killing God Senior would think about passing on his Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords; there was no need to mention others.
Wei Chen's line of thought was based on the information provided by Killing God Senior. Whether it was true or not would depend on this so-called Sword of Absolute Blade.
"Killing God Senior, you've been in the Endless Divine Realm for so long; have you ever heard of that place called Sword of Absolute Blade?" Wei Chen asked calmly.
Killing God Senior remained silent for a long while before letting out a soft sigh and transmitting, "Wei Chenzi, if I'm not mistaken, the Sword Absolute Blade Secret Realm should be in Jingyun Divine Realm."
"Jingyun Divine Realm? Isn't that where Shennong Ding is located?" Wei Chen exclaimed in surprise. Could it be that there was some connection between Sword of Absolute Blade and Shennong Ding?
