<h4>Chapter 1021: Chapter 1019: Never Step In!</h4>
In an instant, mes enveloped the two swords, growing fiercer by the moment, until soon, not even the shadows of the swords were visible.
The aura surrounding the area began to fluctuate.
The next second, an even brighter golden light twinkled within the mes, and two clear, crisp sounds of sword hums suddenly emerged!
"In the art of sword fusion, the sun and moon shine bright, the energies of heaven and earth, unite as one spirit, activate!"
No sooner had the words fallen than a st echoed from within the mes, and in a blink, all subsided into silence, the mes gradually dying out.
Ren Feifan caught a glimpse, through a haze, of a longsword faintly shimmering with light.
Everything became clear.
Ren Feifan stood up and exhaled a breath of turbid air; the sword fusion had been a sess.
At this moment, the Holy Abyss Sword showed no significant change, but its de was now covered in dark red patterns, and what was once gold and red had almost turned wholly crimson.
The inscribed words "Ren Feifan of Saint Doctor’s Gate" still remained!
Ren Feifan reached out and grasped the longsword tightly, feeling a trace of power within it.
With a single swing of the longsword, a surge of intense heat washed over him, and a faint me emerged abruptly!
Without even invoking True Fire, Ren Feifan had such might at his disposal.
Looking at the other sword that had not been sessfully forged in the mes, he found it hadpletely vanished!
Ren Feifan’s gaze then shifted to the Blood Drinking Sword; should he attempt to fuse it as well?
He discovered that the sword fusion technique Grandpa Xu had taught him contained some special elements, which were perfect for further exploration...
...
Hidden Sword Vi was lit up and decorated, filled with joyous spirit.
These were the most important days for Hidden Sword Vi.
People from various fields hade, drawn by its reputation; most were adept at sword forging and artifact refining, and some were material merchants who provided sword-casting materials to Hidden Sword Vi all year round.
There were also major families and sects from Huaxia, for besides the grand sword forgingpetition, there was also the "Summit of Sword Inquiry Auction."
Many high-tier spirit swords from the grandpetition would be auctioned off at that time! Not only that, but items of various grades would be auctioned, and in fact, for most people, the main reason foring to Hidden Sword Vi was for this event.
At this moment, Elder Qiu was buoyant, weing guests one by one. Although he was thest ranked among the eight elders of Hidden Sword Vi, he was certain that once he cast those three swords, who could stop him from taking the Vi Master’s seat!
Suddenly, Elder Qiu’s face changed, the jubnt expression vanishing instantly!
Instead, his face turned ashen!
He stood frozen in ce, ignoring even those who greeted him!
Because he realized that the consciousness he had attached to the three swords hadpletely dissipated!
Even if someone else took the swords away, that consciousness would remain!
As for it disappearing, there was only one possibility!
The swords had been destroyed!
Who could it be! Who dared to be so bold as to tamper with Elder Qiu’s swords!
It was an outright death wish!
His form turned into a blur, hurrying towards the Refining Room!
Just as he reached the entrance, a stir broke out among the crowd!
All eyes were fixed on an old man in linen at the doorway!
Even the surging True Qi of Elder Qiu suddenly halted, and he stopped not far from the linen-d elder!
Elder Qiu gazed at the person before him, his eyes widening, filled with shock!
He knew the person before him all too well!
Even if turned to ashes, he would recognize him!
But hadn’t this fellow sworn to leave Hidden Sword Vi forever and never return?
Why had he shown up at this critical moment today?
"Ying Wanling?"
Elder Qiu eximed instinctively!
"Elder Qiu! No harm done, I hope!"
The eyes of the desireless Taoist shed with a hint of fury, the sight of an enemy redoubling his rage.
Elder Qiuughed mockingly, "Ying Wanling, you actually dare to return to Hidden Sword Vi. Sixty years have passed; what about the oath you swore to never set foot in Hidden Sword Vi again?"
The desireless Taoist did not confront his counterpart, but sneered three times, "The one who made the oath was Ying Wanling, and Ying Wanling is dead. I am the desireless Taoist!"
Elder Qiuughed loudly, "So you’ve even turned to the Dao Sect, it’s such a disgrace to our Hidden Sword Vi!"
The eyes of the desireless Taoist were very calm, "Elder Qiu Jianren, I came to Hidden Sword Vi not to find you, nor to quarrel with you. There’s no need for more words. You know well the disgusting things you’ve done. If you cross the line again, I will surely execute you, out of my way! I want to see the owner of Hidden Sword Vi."
Elder Qiu’s eyes darkened, the words of the desireless Taoist made it clear, he must know about his own blood-forged swords!
Then, his swords must have a problem, and surely it was rted to him; even if not, Ying Wanling couldn’t escape the me!
His whole face changed, and a throwing knife appeared in his hand, he said in a hushed voice, "So, you are saying the incident in the Forging Room is also rted to you?"
The desireless Taoist frowned, his first reaction was that his own disciple had stirred up some trouble again, could it be that he had destroyed this fellow’s Forging Room?
Even better if it was destroyed!
To forge swords with fresh blood, such a cruel thing should be destroyed!
However, the desireless Taoist didn’t wish for his disciple to get involved in this matter, so he decisively took responsibility!
"So what if I did it? Those children were innocent. Over so many years, I would have never thought you’d be even more cold-blooded!"
Elder Qiu got his answer, and he could no longer suppress the rage in his heart. He ignored the surrounding guests and released seven flying knives directly from his hand!
The arrangement of the seven flying knives was precisely the Big Dipper Formation!
Brilliant and dazzling, it caused palpitations!
"Dare to destroy my sword, today I willpletely execute you! I will refine a sword with your blood!"
The desireless Taoist snorted coldly; he knew these flying knives were problematic. With a step, a barrier suddenly rose from the ground, blocking the flying knives!
The knives slowed down considerably, but they still pierced through the barrier!
Elder Qiuughed loudly, "Ying Wanling, no matter how much you change your appearance, your sword forging skills are not as good as mine, and your martial arts skills even less so!"
"Oh, is that so! Roll back!"
The desireless Taoist’s beard bristled, but he was not flustered. With a wave of his hand, the flying knives unexpectedly reversed direction towards Elder Qiu!
Elder Qiu, sensing the energy of the knives, turned pale and hastily channeled his True Qi in defense, but an overwhelming pressure bore down on him!
He quickly retreated five or six steps, but it was already toote!
Just as the flying knives were about to strike, a one-armed old man appeared before Elder Qiu and with a wave of his hand, the knives were powerfully knocked away!
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
The flying knives embedded themselves into the wall!
The one-armed old man’s eyes fell upon desireless Taoist, "Ying Wanling, although you are no longer with Hidden Sword Vi, you shouldn’t bully your junior brother with your cultivation, haven’t the grievances of decades been reconciled back then?"
Seeing the one-armed old man, the desireless Taoist’s face rxed a bit, and he bowed slightly, "Brother, I wish to see the owner. I have a favor to ask and hope to be amodated."
The one-armed old man waved his hand, "You may leave; the owner will not see you."
