Chapter 222 Descent (4)
The Absolutely Invincible Sword.
Gu Yangjie stared at the cliff opposite him, lost in deep contemplation.
For a week, he had not met anyone and had practiced countless sword techniques, yet he could find no clue whatsoever.
‘The Heavenly Sword is the Heavenly Sword, but to defeat that monster in Plum Blossom Valley…’
To sever the shackles binding Yu Zhangming, the Absolute Invincible Sword was necessary.
After endless contemplation, Gu Yangjeok suddenly looked up at the sky.
“Is it going to rain again?”
Drip, drip… whoosh…
As the rain began, the clear sky darkened, and thick fog began to settle over every corner of the volcano.
The cliff where he had been practicing swordsmanship was also swallowed by the fog, vanishing from sight.
“This means I can’t train any longer.”
After gathering his composure, Gu Yangjeok moved to the hermitage where he was staying.
There, he sat cross-legged and gently closed his eyes.
He recalled the many battles he had fought up to this point, pondering deeply the state of mind with which he had fought each one.
But the answer did not come easily.
For the sword of absolute invincibility was not something achievable through the realm of the absolute.
A deep sorrow appeared on Gu Yangjeok’s face.
‘Sword Sage, please grant your guidance to this humble disciple.’
Then suddenly, Gu Yangjeok caught himself seeking help from Yeo Dongbin and stopped his thoughts.
He let out a hollow laugh, wondering if this was all he had entered seclusion for.
