บท 34: A Prophecy Passed Down From Generation To Generation
บรรณาธิการ: Henyee Translations
The crimson light in the eyes of the two Demonic Beasts gradually receded as their bodies began to tremble. It was clear that they had been stunned by Su Hang's might.
The two Demonic Beasts looked at one another and fled without hesitation. They had no intention to avenge their companions.
"They really ran away?"
Su Hang was a little surprised. He had only wanted to give it a try but he did not expect them to really run away. He thought that they would be more loyal since they had teamed up.
However, this was good as well. Leaving was a good thing. He didn't need to waste too much energy. When he thought of this, he let out a breath of turbid air. He turned around and smiled as he waved towards Su Hao who was far away.
However, in the next moment, his expression instantly froze. It wasn't because of anything else but because he sensed that at Su Hao's position, there was a Demonic Beast at the Initial-Stage of the Foundation Establishment closing in on him. At this moment, he had just finished his battle and his body's Spiritual Energy and blood vitality weren't stable yet, so he was unable to immediately mobilize his Spiritual Energy to speed up his pace.
Helpless, he could only anxiously shout, "Su Hao, you have a Foundation Establishment Demonic Beast behind! Run!"
Su Hao was stunned for a moment. Then, he felt a violent aura behind him, rushing towards him. Right now, he could no longer dodge.
In a moment of desperation, he could only pull out his blade. With a clang, the Tang Saber was unsheathed. A blood-red blade aura filled with killing intent appeared, causing the surrounding temperature to seem to drop a few degrees. The blade aura quickly spread to the blade and Su Hao recalled the scene when his senior used Sword Qi to condense into a needle.
Immediately after, his blade aura changed and it began to gather and transform into Qi. The Qi of the blade transformed into a long straight line that shot towards the incoming Demonic Beast.
The blade lines silently slashed across and the body of the Demonic Beast was sliced into two in mid-air. After that, blood splattered onto the ground and Su Hao stood upright with his blade drawn.
"This is…"
Su Hang's eyes widened as he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. He was very sure that Su Hao did not have any cultivation in his body but a person without any cultivation actually used Saber Force.
Furthermore, that Saber Aura was extremely sharp and full of killing intent. It was obvious that he had comprehended it during a massacre.
He actually killed a Foundation Establishment Demonic Beast directly. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believe it even if his father told him!
"Sigh…"
Su Hao sighed helplessly. He was still discovered.
Initially, he had planned to follow Su Hang around and observe if there were any good locations in the uninhabited area so that he could practice drawing his saber. After all, it wasn't convenient for him to expose his abilities in the public eye to avoid being targeted by people with ulterior motives.
Fortunately, Su Hang was someone who would keep his identity a secret.
At the thought of this, Su Hao walked over but before he could speak, Su Hang asked first.
"Su Hao, what's going on?"
After asking, Su Hang realized that he had spoken too much. It was a taboo for cultivators to ask such questions. What if the questions touched the other party's trump card? Or some of the other party's special secrets?
"I'm sorry, I spoke too much."
Su Hang immediately tried to salvage the situation.
However, Su Hao shook his head with a smile on his face. He had already decided to change the entire situation. After all, Su Hang had already seen everything. Apart from the existence of the system, there was no harm in telling him.
"It's okay, Brother Hang. I can tell you but on one condition, you have to keep it a secret for me."
Su Hang hesitated. It wasn't that he couldn't keep it a secret for Su Hao but he felt that it wasn't a good idea. After all, this was Su Hao's secret.
But in the next moment, he suddenly remembered something. It was a prophecy left behind by a mighty figure who had ascended from his clan. That mighty figure was his great-grandfather!
His great-grandfather did not cultivate his own Sword Dao because the Sword Dao inherited by his family was not compatible with his great-grandfather's. As a result, his great-grandfather was ridiculed all those years ago. In a fit of anger, he became a monk to gain experience. When he returned, his cultivation was unfathomable from cultivating the Profound Peerless Starry Sky Dao.
Soon after his return, he used the Dao of the Starry Sky to predict the calamity that would befall his family. This was because his great-grandfather's current cultivation was extremely profound. Even if everyone didn't believe him, they didn't dare to disobey his arrangements. In the end, not long after, the prophecy came true!
However, because they had listened to great-grandfather's advance preparations, the clan had survived without any mishaps. This not only made everyone in the clan regard great-grandfather as a god, it also shocked the cultivators outside. Countless top-notch sects, clans and academies came to their clan just to see their great-grandfather.
However, great-grandfather was not fond of such things, so he found an excuse to politely reject them.
After that, Su Hang's grandfather spoke a few more times about the clan's calamity, as well as the locations of the Ancient Secret Realms. After that, his grandfather received a title given by everyone.
Then, more than ten years later, his great-grandfather successfully passed the tribulation and ascended to the Immortal World. When he was about to ascend, he sensed something and left a prophecy in his family.
"Hundreds of years later, when the Human Race is in great trouble, a mighty figure will appear to save the Human Race from disaster. That person is like the Heaven and Sword Immortal, cultivating the pure Dao. The difference is that the Heaven and Sword Immortal cultivated the Sword Dao. The mighty figure that saves the human race in the future cultivates the Saber Dao. If my descendants meet such a person in the future, remember to be on good terms with them. This way, not only will the Human Race continue to prosper, our family clan will also be able to exist for eternity!"
Right now, Su Hao didn't have any cultivation on him, yet he could use a blade to display this type of ferocious strength. No matter how one looked at it, this was exactly the same as that great expert in the prophecy!
However, he wasn't sure. Hence, he gritted his teeth and nodded. He decided to go against his principles and probe. If that was the case, then it was destined that his clan would rise up!
"I can keep it a secret."
Upon hearing Su Hang's words, Su Hao heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that Su Hang must have meant what he said. Hence, he said in a relaxed manner, "Brother Hang, I can't cultivate. My Spirit Energy rejects my physique and Spirit Energy can't enter my body at all. My current strength is all due to my saber training. Let me give an example. For example, Brother Hang, you guys cultivate Spirit Energy and then comprehend these."
Su Hang nodded seriously as he listened. He was becoming more and more convinced that Su Hao was that person!
"However, I cultivate the saber. I can only improve my strength by practicing the saber again and again. It can be said that the saber is my cultivation."
Su Hang sucked in a breath of cold air after hearing that. According to what Su Hao said, he had really entered the path with a saber! He was really the almighty in the prophecy!
Despite his tumultuous emotions, Su Hang managed to suppress his agitation. He pretended to be calm and said, "Su Hao, in your situation, you have entered the Dao with a saber! You just need to cultivate the saber. There's no need to cultivate the Spirit. This is a cultivation method that doesn't require cultivating the Spirit. This method is only used by the mighty figures who led the humans to resist back then, the Heaven and Sword Immortal!"
"Heaven and Sword Immortal did not cultivate spirit. Only cultivated the sword and entered the Dao with the sword!"
Su Hao was shocked. So there were cultivators like him who had no cultivation! He thought that he was the only one who was so special!
He was overjoyed. Did that mean he didn't have to hide himself anymore? However, as soon as he had this thought, Su Hang's next words poured cold water on him, extinguishing the flame in his heart.
"There's no way to promote this cultivation method. It's not that it can't be promoted but it's just that this cultivation method has disappeared along with the Heaven and Sword Immortal's death in the Demon Realm. And this cultivation method has appeared once again in your body. I believe that all the mighty figures will be interested in you. Therefore, unless it's absolutely necessary, Su Hao, you must absolutely not take action! Do you understand?"
Su Hang had a serious expression on his face and it was clear that he wasn't joking at all. As someone from a great cultivation clan, he naturally understood how precious this cultivation method of Su Hao's was. Once it was exposed, it would attract the covetous eyes of many great powers. Some of the great powers with good personalities were still alright and they would probably respect Su Hao by giving him resources and exchanging them with him.
However, if it were some of the more sinister mighty figures, Su Hao would be nothing more than an ant in their eyes. If he dared to not hand him over, they would probably search his soul directly.
