THE MARTIAL KING - SEASON 5 EPISODE 63

However, the swordsman who entered the Killing Sword Mountain was able to store his malicious aura in it! In this way, he could avoid the damage caused by the malicious aura, which was the main purpose of the Killing Sword Mountain. It was also the reason why the Killing Sword Mountain was considered a sacred place for swordsmen.

The lucky swordsman, who inserted his sword into a place of high altitude, could deposit and withdraw more malicious aura.

This was Zen’s first time at the Killing Sword Mountain. To be able to enter Killing Sword Mountain was already a matter of great luck for him. It was unknown whether he would be able to enter the Killing Sword Mountain again.

Maybe a person only got one opportunity to access the mountain. It was possible that even after making a huge breakthrough, Zen might not be able to enter the Killing Sword Mountain.

Just like Iceni, perhaps his strength was now very strong, and according to general knowledge, he was supposed to insert his sacred weapon higher than on the edge of the ridge. However, he did not get the chance to enter the Killing Sword Mountain, so his sacred weapon could only be firmly inserted on the edge of the ridge, without any higher improvement.

So this time, Zen was determined to insert his sword in a higher place. When attacked by the spirit of the sacred weapon, Zen did not reserve his strength. He exercised his highest martial arts and top-grade weapon.

The people who owned sacred weapons were influential enough to rule a region. According to Zen, Iceni might have had strength equivalent to that of people like the top leader of the Cloud Hall.

Even if the sacred weapon contained the sword spirit and only a little of Iceni’s spirit, it would be difficult for Zen to defeat him even after employing all his skills.

“Ice Freeze All! Just watch me freeze you!” Iceni’s spirit said arrogantly.

Then, he summoned the sword spirit to attack Zen. As soon as the sword attack was launched, Zen felt cold. Even his consciousness seemed to be freezing. His surrounding space was filled with a chill, and he could see ice crystals forming.

Zen was not afraid of fire and heat as his body could resist different kinds of flames. However, there was no way for him to deal with the cold. As he was surrounded by such extreme cold, his speed was significantly reduced, and he had no way to fight harder.

“Lift up the sword!” Zen said quickly. With his sword lifted, soon, the malicious aura of his sword spirit, Lily was released.

That malicious aura turned into pieces of silk thread and split the ice crystals in an instant!

With the help of the malicious aura, Zen’s sword broke Iceni’s cold attack.

“That’s impossible! Your malicious aura can’t be so strong!” Iceni’s spirit said, startled. Since Iceni was able to step into Killing Sword Mountain and he also practiced killing swordplay, he had a thorough understanding of the malicious aura.

The malicious aura in Zen’s body was not strong at all, but the malicious aura in his sword was powerful.

What Iceni didn’t know was that Zen’s sword spirit had just been condensed and that the malicious aura was not Zen’s, but from his sword spirit, Lily. “Poof!”

“Snap, snap, snap…” the sound of something breaking echoed across the mountain.

After Zen broke Iceni’s extreme cold attack, he lunged his sword toward Iceni’s spirit. The sound of shattering glass reverberated through the mountain as Iceni’s spirit had been pierced by the sword.

Soon afterward, the sacred weapon returned to its original place, and a large number of blue light spots gushed out of the sacred weapon and flew into Zen’s body.

“This killing aura, or malicious aura, is so powerful! No wonder the woman from the Demon Night could carry a low-grade mysterious weapon up the mountainside,” Zen muttered in excitement. He now finally understood that she could insert such a low-grade mysterious weapon in the mountainside because she relied on her extraordinarily strong malicious aura!

“If that is so, then the Killing Sword Mountain will be beneficial to me. Should I insert my sword in it now?” Zen mumbled as he thought of the possibilities. Since he had defeated Iceni’s spirit, Zen now crossed over the mountainside and stood on the ridge, a level higher than before.

He looked up and found that although there were not many sacred weapons, as compared to the number of fairy weapons, the number of sacred weapons in front of him was enough to make him skeptical. Since Iceni’s sword spirit, hidden in the first sacred weapon he encountered, was so powerful, it was not hard to imagine how much stronger the sword spirits from other sacred weapons would be.

“Zen, I think today’s progress is enough. It is truly amazing that you were able to reach the ridge. The Killing Sword Mountain is filled with countless talents, and the master of every sword you see is a talented swordsman. These masters have figured out the sword intent at the consummation grade. You only have the strength of a cultivator at the second grade of the nature level. Now, you are able to break through these barriers and insert your fairy weapon alongside these sacred weapons. This is an outstanding achievement,” the cyan dragon said slowly. “Equally, I am afraid that you won’t be able to defeat the next sword no matter how hard you try.”

A sacred weapon not far from Zen flashed a golden light. It was a broad-edge sword that was wider than Zen’s body and over seven feet long. To be able to handle such a sword, the master must be a colossus. What stressed Zen more was that on the surface of the broad-edge sword, there was still a hint of reddish energy. If Zen guessed correctly, that energy would be malicious aura that had been compressed to an extreme extent. Even a simple glimpse of the sword was terrifying to Zen.

Zen was self-aware. He knew that with his current strength and the malicious aura of his sword spirit, he was able to defeat Iceni’s sword spirit, and to walk up the ridge. Indeed, this was a good result and perhaps, the best he could do at the moment.

However, Zen did not seem to be ready to stop at this point.

He took two steps back and gripped the Streamer Sword firmly. Then, with a deep breath, he sprinted forward.

“Zen, oh, my…” the cyan dragon in Zen’s mind said helplessly. He knew exactly what Zen was planning on doing.

Since he hadn’t made a successful breakthrough, Zen threw his sword forward hard.
