Lord Shadow

By then it has already been the fifth month since he had come down to the mountain. His name and fame has spread far and wide.

The story of him conquering and destroying everything on his path with just a single sword had made him more than just a famous martial artist.

It elevates him into a symbol of invincibility and pinnacle strength of martial arts.

With one sword in his hand, who could restrain him? With one sword in his hand, is there anything in this world he not could have? Everything is equal in front of his sword!

That is the words storytellers attributed to him.

From the northern region of the Five Element Mountain, the Sword God travels down to the south and none of his enemies could stop him from coming down.

Like Azief had declared he went to many sects and martial art schools to challenge their swordsmanship.

Martial arts and their techniques were nothing in front the Sword God sword.

If he went into a swordsmanship sect, he would use swordsmanship to defeat that school. If he went to a saber sects or schools, he would sue saber technique to defeat them.

He would use their way of fighting to defeat them. And the battle between him and the three great grandmaster were known all over the world, solidifying his status as the strongest grandmaster of martial arts in the world

At the same time, Azief had also work on a list. It is a list that he would leave when he ascended.

After he had defeated the Three Grandmaster, Old Immortal Tian went into seclusion with Old Dragon Li once again.

They both decided that they will try to break their limits.

It seems in that battle between them and him, they seem to find a new path to advance.

Azief himself had resolve the lingering feelings for those two people by injuring them so he did not mind giving some pointer

Demonic Monarch return to Jingling to nurse his injuries and to make sure that no one would use the fact that he was injured to spring an attack on his sect.

Since his returns, he had gone into a seclusion to improve his martial arts.

It was then Azief went back up to the Sword Washing Sect. It was a beautiful sect. There is a stream river downhill where the disciples of that sect could wash their sword with some minerals.

Azief had examined the minerals and found out that it is like a spirit stone.

Some worlds under the Three Thousands Worlds had something called spirit stones.

They have the energy of the world trapped into it and the people living in such worlds would use the stones to increase their energy.

Azief almost laughed. Since the people of this world could not sense these fine energies they did not know they are using a high quality energy absorbing items to sharpens their swords.

But it is no wonder that such a sect had produced a lot of genius in swordsmanship.

While the mortals of this world could not absorb the energy inside the spirit stones, being in close proximity with them do have the effect of clearing one own mind.

There he issues his challenge to the Sword Washing Sect leader and defeated the old master with five sword moves

In that battle, no one could see the trajectory of the Sword God sword moves. It is unpredictable, and confusing for those disciple with low comprehension of sword moves.

Sometime, the Sword God moves, it looks so simple that anyone could block it but once the moves are used, it seems like there is no moves in the world that could break it

Everything in front of him whether it be feint, or a fake sword move would be discovered with glance.

No attack could even reach that back dark robe and the edges of the wheelchair. 

In that five sword moves that the Sword God had exhibited, each moves could take the lives of the sect leader of the Sword Washing Sect.

But the Sword God did not push it since he wanted to prove his sword manual is the best in the world.

One with Sword Su Meng then challenge Xi Feng after the battle between Azief and the sect master ended.

Xi Feng was also eager to try his sword and compare himself with the First Sword of the Sword Washing Sect

By this time, Xi Feng had mastered around twenty moves of the Flowing Sword Arts. No matter how powerful Su Meng sword arts, it would be broken after a few moves, so much so that Su Meng sword could not even touch the end of Xi Feng sleeve

The battle ended in a cordial manner as the sect leader of the Sword Washings Sect did not find it humiliating for himself to be defeated by a renowned grandmaster of the martial arts world.

Azief himself had given the Sword Master of the Sword Washing Sect some pointers when fighting him.

If not how could the sect leader of the Sword Washing Sect who was not a grandmaster could last five moves under Azief attack.

They feasted that night together and that day when they part the leader of the Sword Washing Sect said that as long as he is alive, he would forever be grateful for the help that Azief had shown him toward the path of swordsmanship and promise Xi Feng that the gate of the Sword Washing Sect will always be open for him.

Azief also notice that there is a friendship budding between the cold looking Su Meng and his disciple and at that time Azief felt proud and happy.

From Tai, Azief then traveled toward the East of Zhou and reached Eastern Yuan.

There he encountered the mysterious Beast Manor. They are martial artist that have a unique martial arts internal technique.

They could use their internal energy to controls beast and animals and they ride together and fight together.

Azief was so fascinated by them that he spent a few days with them and spoke with the Beast Manor lord about a lot of things.

He did not challenge the Beast Manor and instead express his admiration toward the people of the Beast Manor.

Azief and Xi Feng intended to come down to Yong from Jiaping Pass. In Yong, there is many grandmasters and powerful sects and schools.

There is the Cloud Abode in Yongxian Valley. In Ruo there is the Sect Leader of the Sword Residence, the poisoned Sword of Justice, Fang Jian.

And reputedly even mysterious White Robed Lady Duan who were said to descend down from White Deer Mountain to protect the Emperor of Zhou is in Yong, meeting with the new Emperor of Yong.

Then there is also Mad Monk, Kong Xuan who had returned back to the mainland after stopping halfway searching for the Holy Lady of the Majusi Cult

But when they were coming out from the forest, the Three Devils of Han was challenged by a mysterious man wearing a brocade green mask

The brocade mask man is not that powerful but his agility skill even shock Azief. In the chaos, the Brocade Mask kidnaps the Crippled Devil Han Xiao.

At that time, he too is curious.

It seems this enemy has a relationship with Han Xiao. They follow the trails and found a villa in the middle of the forest.

The surrounding of the villa is full of traps, poisons and many other mechanisms that prevented anyone from coming in.

But since Azief is with them, they manage to pass through all of the obstacles. There, Azief once again learned something about human life.
