Ye Tian grew even more confused. 'How is it possible that only one person can draw the Black Glaze Sword? Does that an its previous owners couldn't?'
"We know what you're thinking. This Black Glaze Sword is the sect-guarding treasure of our Shen Li Palace. Only soone who possesses the War Dragon Bloodline is capable of drawing it. Since you were the one who drew it, you are our Young Master," Zhang Fengyu said.
It all ca back to the War Dragon Bloodline. Ye Tian was at a loss for words. 'I do have a War Dragon Pearl inside , but what does that have to do with the War Dragon Bloodline? I really think they've got the wrong person.' But he didn't dare to refute them.
"Only soone with the War Dragon Bloodline can use the Black Glaze Sword. No one else can even draw it. In fact, they would be injured by the Artifact Spirit within it. This is an Ancient Divine Artifact, the very sa Divine Artifact once wielded by the War Dragon Divine Venerable," Zhang Fengyu explained.
To the side, the Cyan Snake watched the shifting expressions on Ye Tian's face intently. Although it was night, they felt not the slightest hint of darkness. To them, there was little difference between night and day.
At that mont, Ye Tian felt his heart couldn't take the shock. 'The Black Glaze Sword is a Divine Artifact? The one used by the Ancient War Dragon Divine Venerable? This is like a dream... So why didn't that guy inside tell ?'
"The Celestial Dragon Continent is so vast. Why did you choose to place the sword in a small place like Lisha City? If I hadn't shown up here, wouldn't you have spent your whole lives searching for in vain?" Ye Tian couldn't help but ask.
He realized that the things happening to him were simply too bizarre. No one would believe him if he told them what happened; every single event was world-shaking and utterly incredible.
"That wouldn't have happened. Before entering the Profound Celestial Desperate Realm, the forr Palace Master of Shen Li Palace specifically divined that the master of the Black Glaze Sword would appear in Lisha City within three years. That is why we ca here three years ago," Zhang Fengyu said.
Ye Tian was deeply impressed by the powerful precognitive abilities of Shen Li Palace's Palace Master. "Why did your Palace Master go to the Profound Celestial Desperate Realm? Now that you've found , you're not planning to take back to Shen Li Palace, are you? And what is the connection between Shen Li Palace and the War Dragon?"
Ye Tian couldn't help but voice the questions weighing on his mind. 'Things are already this crazy, so I might as well get all the shocking answers at once!' He believed he could handle it.
"On the Celestial Dragon Continent, there are the Three Great Holy Lands, four major Secret Realms, and two great Sea Regions. Our Shen Li Palace is located in one of the Three Great Holy Lands. While we're not considered a top-tier Sect, we still rank among the top ten.
We didn't find you this ti to take you back with us. Shen Li Palace is currently facing threats from without and turmoil from within. Taking you back would actually put you in more danger. It's better to let you temper yourself out here. Besides, you're destined to beco the strongest sooner or later.
The previous Palace Master of Shen Li Palace was a supre powerhouse who had opened his Seven Veins. However, an accident occurred while he was attempting to open his Eight Veins. His Heart Vein was severely damaged, and only the Blood Soul Grass from the Profound Celestial Desperate Realm can heal it.
But the Blood Soul Grass is exceedingly rare. The Palace Master entered the Profound Celestial Desperate Realm many years ago, and we've had no word from him since. He has likely fallen within. That's why several of us Elders conferred and decided to co search for the Young Master, as it was the ti the Palace Master had foretold.
The Artifact Spirit within the Black Glaze Sword is said to be from the Dragon Race. The Dragon-shaped Mark that appeared on your palm, Young Master, is the sign of the Artifact Spirit's acknowledgnt. Through this mark, you can unleash the imnse power of the Black Glaze Sword," Zhang Fengyu explained slowly, a flicker of lancholy on his face.
Ye Tian felt like he was beginning to understand. 'It's as if this was all fated. First, I obtained the Dragon Pearl, and now the Black Glaze Sword. Everything is connected to the War Dragon... Can it be that I'm the reincarnation of a War Dragon?'
"So, what are your plans now that you've found ?" Ye Tian asked.
"I will be returning to the Holy Land, while Elder Qing will remain here to protect you. Don't underestimate Elder Qing. Even a Martial Emperor who has opened their Five Veins is no match for him. With him protecting you, I can rest assured... unless you run into soone from the Holy Land," Zhang Fengyu said.
Ye Tian knew the Cyan Snake and Zhang Fengyu were powerful, but he hadn't imagined they were powerful to this extent. 'If even a Five Vein Powerhouse is no match for him, just how strong is he? Could he be a Six Vein Powerhouse?'
'Then again, having a supre expert by my side is sothing countless people could only dream of. I wouldn't have to worry about danger, and I could just have him solve any trouble that arises.'
However, Ye Tian didn't actually want the Cyan Snake to stay with him. It wasn't that he disliked the man; rather, he feared that he would beco overly reliant on him and lose the motivation to do things himself.
'That would slow my progress, which would be a bad thing.' "You should both go back together," Ye Tian said. "No one knows my identity right now, so you don't need to worry about my safety."
"Rest assured, Young Master. I will not follow you directly. I will protect you from the shadows. I will only appear when you are in true danger," the Cyan Snake finally spoke.
Ye Tian was truly at a loss for words. After glancing at the two of them, he said, "Is there anything else? If not, I should head back. I'm afraid being out for so long will arouse suspicion."
"Young Master, once you break through to the Three Veins, make a trip to the Holy Land with the Cyan Snake. Your Black Glaze Sword is still missing a key component. Only by embedding it into the sword can you unleash its true power.
Legend has it that there is an incredibly formidable Martial Skill sealed within the Black Glaze Sword—a Saint-tier Martial Skill, a grade higher than even a Celestial-tier Martial Skill. It is likely the very technique the War Dragon Divine Venerable used back then," Zhang Fengyu added.
Ye Tian was secretly amused. 'I know all about that Martial Skill; I'm just not strong enough for its cultivation yet. I hadn't noticed the Black Glaze Sword was missing sothing, though. I'll have to take a closer look when I get back.'
"I understand! I'll definitely go when the ti cos! I'll be leaving now!" Ye Tian said. To be honest, he was still not used to being around supre powerhouses like them.
Everyone craved power, but attaining it took ti. Ye Tian didn't want their appearance to disrupt his ntal Realm. Moreover, he wanted to go back and ask the Divine Dragon Remnant Soul about the Holy Lands and Secret Realms.
"Young Master, this is a Storage Ring. I hope you will accept it. There are so Spirit Stones and dicinal herbs inside that you can use when you need them." As Zhang Fengyu spoke, a simple, archaic-looking ring appeared in his hand.
A Storage Ring! For Ye Tian, such rings were the stuff of legends. Yet here one was, appearing right before his eyes. And it was for him. The surprise was overwhelming.
"Is it really for ?" Ye Tian asked hurriedly, finding it hard to believe. If he had to choose between the Storage Ring and the Black Glaze Sword, he would have picked the Storage Ring without a mont's hesitation.
Of course, that was only because he was unaware of the Black Glaze Sword's quality. Had he known it was an Ancient Divine Artifact, he might have changed his mind.
"You are our Young Master. We will do everything in our power to provide you with whatever you need. Of course this Storage Ring is for you! Please keep it safe, Young Master. It would be best to claim ownership with a drop of your blood, to prevent it from being discovered by petty miscreants," Zhang Fengyu said…
