"Is it done? I’m in so much pain!"
"Almost there, hang in there a bit longer!"
Amidst Crimson Mad’s painful roars, Carson Flores sent in one final surge of intense sword qi, hitting the last and most critical node.
With this strike, the entire sword talisman seed to transform into a brilliantly radiant sun, and then, astonishingly, it detached from the sword and floated mysteriously into the air.
Carson widened his eyes, a bit surprised.
In his understanding, when the support of a house is destroyed, the house should collapse outright. With the key internal structure of the sword talisman destroyed by his sword qi, shouldn’t it have shattered completely?
How did it end up flying instead?
The sword talisman detached from the giant sword, and imdiately, the countless glowing lines on the sword dimd. Down below, Crimson Mad, who was howling fiercely, suddenly stopped, his voice filled with delight.
"Did we unlock it?"
Carson looked at the sword talisman floating in the air, his gaze cautious. After all, his power was vastly inferior to the creator of this talisman, and if any aberration occurred, he might not be able to stop it.
The light on the sword talisman converged, remarkably, into the figure of a person.
Carson blinked. Another projection?
Carson had previously seen such a sight in the Harmony Land, engaging in a distant conversation with True Sage Grand Void. Now, was he about to et the owner of this sword?
The figure quickly beca clear, revealing a handso young man.
The young man’s gaze fell on Carson, scrutinizing him from head to toe. With a smile, he said, "A body full of sword bone, fused with a phenonon seed, that’s intriguing..."
Having once again had his body’s many secrets seen through at a glance, Carson felt numb.
The disparity in power realms was too vast. In the other’s eyes, he was no different from being naked.
No, being naked only ans seeing the body, but this person saw not just his body, but his very essence.
Carson bowed respectfully, "Junior Carson Flores, greets Senior!"
The young man’s gaze drifted to the back of Carson’s hand, where an imprint left by Grand Void was visible.
"Hmm, I sense a familiar aura. What’s your relationship with Grand Void?"
Carson answered candidly, "I don’t know Senior Grand Void personally, but I trespassed into the Harmony Land he constructed and took the Harmony Spring he left behind. We had a conversation and made a pact. He left this mark on to communicate with him."
The young man smiled slightly, "Can you tell what pact he made with you?"
Carson replied, "To find sothing specific, but I can’t reveal more."
The young man nodded, not pressing further, instead asking, "Have you figured out the sword talisman?"
Carson answered honestly, "I have a basic understanding, but there’s much I still don’t comprehend. I intended to ditate on it more, but Crimson Mad was in too much pain, so I wanted to unlock the talisman sooner to ease his suffering."
The young man nodded, "You do have a kind heart. Crimson Mad destroyed a Sect of mine in the past for justified reasons, so I left him imprisoned here to suffer as punishnt... Crimson Mad, do you accept this?"
Crimson Mad’s begrudging voice echoed from the seabed, "I can’t beat you, so I have no choice but to accept."
The young man smiled faintly, unconcerned with Crimson Mad’s attitude, "I am the one who subdued you. If you ever grow stronger, you may challenge anyti, but if you hold grudges and take revenge on others, next ti I co for you, it won’t just be imprisonnt."
Crimson Mad responded, "Once I beco a Saint, I’ll co for you."
The young man turned away from Crimson Mad, looking at Carson, "Since you’ve unlocked the sword talisman, let’s consider this fate. You ntioned not having fully understood the talisman, so let gift you another sword talisman. Take your ti to study it."
The young man lifted his finger and casually sketched in the air, causing lines of radiant sword talismans to illuminate.
Drawing talismans out of thin air!
Carson widened his eyes, focusing intently on the young man’s actions, not wanting to miss a single detail!
This was a Grandmaster-level live demonstration!
Perhaps to make it easier for Carson to see clearly, the young man’s movent in drawing the sword talisman was unhurried, yet the fluidity and subtle balance within were so rich that Carson watched unblinkingly, his heart in awe.
His own attempts at drawing sword talismans, after months of imitation, paled terribly in comparison to this skilled technique!
Carson quickly noticed that the sword talisman crafted by the young man was different from the one he had previously unlocked. This particular talisman seed more complex, and Carson couldn’t fathom its function at all for now.
Soon, the young man completed the drawing of the sword talisman. With a single touch, an imnse flow of spiritual power surged like rivers toward the talisman, as if the talisman were a black hole.
Once the spiritual energy was sufficiently absorbed, the young man flicked his wrist, and the sword talisman transford into a golden light, instantly shooting toward Carson.
