Chapter 533 - 533 Ancient Secret
533 Ancient Secret
Hua Wudao was furious. However, Jiang Ming did not care at all. He turned around and looked at the other forces.
“Do you have any intention of cooperating with the Flowerfruit Sect?”
When everyone heard this, they immediately revealed overjoyed expressions.
“Yes!”
From the fact that the Flowerfruit Sect was able to resist the joint attack of so many forces, it was enough to show that the Flowerfruit Sect was definitely not weak.
They were afraid that the Flowerfruit Sect would take revenge on them for their behavior earlier. However, it seemed that these worries were obviously unnecessary.
Seeing this, Jiang Ming nodded with a slight smile. “Alright, everyone, let’s start now.”
For a moment, everyone was stunned on the spot. They did not understand what Jiang Ming meant. What was he doing? What was he going to do?
At this moment, Jiang Ming slowly took a step forward. He held an ancient sword in his hand. The ancient characters of the Northern Yan language were engraved on it. They translated it into the modern language.
“Dragon Abyss! That’s what it says!”
“It’s actually a replica of the Seven Star Dragon Abyss!”
Rao Wuqing and the others widened their eyes. The Seven Star Dragon Abyss was one of the famous ancient swords, and its grade was far superior to ordinary spirit swords.
However, the spirit sword was not a sword which one injected spiritual energy into. It had a spirit within it.
At this moment, the black sword’s voice rang in his ears. “Bro, there is definitely a spirit hidden in the body of this imitation sword. If we can awaken it, our combat strength will definitely increase by a lot!”
Jiang Ming pursed his lips and sent a voice transmission to him. “If you weren’t so weak, why would I go through so much trouble and even get seriously injured to s.n.a.t.c.h this sword?”
The black sword was speechless.
Its grade was so high that Jiang Ming could not use it at all. It was better to use a spirit sword.
“I hope that one day, I will be able to reach the stage where I can use you. For now, I will use the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword to make do… However, how should I wake up the sword spirit that is sleeping inside?”
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. At this moment, the black sword snorted, and the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword instantly trembled as if it had encountered an extremely terrifying existence.
“Is this absolute suppression?”
Jiang Ming was stunned. As expected of the black sword. It had only used a few casual moves to force the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword to move. One had to know that the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword was simply pretending to be asleep.
“Kid, this is my friend. He’s going to be one of the most powerful people in the world in the future. You have to serve him well. If you make him unhappy, I will beat you up every day!”
The black sword acted like a tyrannical older brother, causing the sword spirit to tremble uncontrollably. It did not dare utter a single word.
It was also at this time that they finally encountered the first batch of Helian Xia soldiers.
There were three to four hundred people. If they only looked at numbers, Jiang Ming’s side definitely had the advantage. After all, they had more than twice the number of people.
However, their side was just a motley crew, while the other side was an excellent unit that had undergone rigorous training!
For a moment, everyone looked at each other. They did not know what to say, and no one dared to make the first move.
Jiang Ming looked at this crowd and could not help but shake his head a few times.
“The team that I just pulled together is ultimately inferior to these troops… Wu Ming, it’s up to you now.”
“Understood.”
Wu Ming could not be bothered to talk nonsense. He took a step forward and shouted, “Die!”
Without any hesitation, Wu Ming instantly drew his sword and waved it. He wanted to kill the group in front of him.
It was also at this time that Jiang Ming chose to move and pointed the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword at these people.
“Is that the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword? Who are you?
The leader of the Helian Xia army stared at Jiang Ming for a long time. However, in the next second, his head fell to the ground. It was Wu Ming’s doing.
“You’re only at the Nascent Soul Realm, yet you had the audacity to yell in front of me?”
The leader’s side was not as serious as theirs.
Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat. He could not help but ask, “You mean, he was at the Nascent Soul Realm?”
It was impossible for a person leading three to four hundred people to be a great general. It was very likely that he was a Helian Xia general who was on the verge of being promoted. However, he had the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm!
“Yes. However, that’s normal. That era’s combat strength was shocking. They were no less powerful than the Yuan Wei Era ten thousand years ago. The Black Rock Ruins were also a part of the Yuan Wei Empire. There were also other aristocratic families and sects.”
Tuoba Kui walked over and spoke in a serious tone, which made Jiang Ming’s heart tremble.
“Was such a powerful dynasty destroyed?”
“Of course. The Yuan Wei Empire had been established for more than twenty thousand years. The Northern Yan Empire had been established for about seven thousand years. The history of the Helian Xia Dynasty is even shorter, only a little over two thousand years… However, it must be mentioned that the Helian Xia Dynasty’s military power was famous for being terrifying. If the Northern Yan Dynasty had not joined forces with the Ascension Divine Kingdom, it would have been the Northern Yan Dynasty that was destroyed.”
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows again and asked, “A thousand years ago, the Northern Yan and Helian Xia dynasties were destroyed one after another. Was this the doing of the Ascension Divine Kingdom?”
It seemed that this was the only plausible explanation. After all, the Northern Yan Dynasty was too powerful back then, and the Helian Xia Dynasty was even more terrifying. However, they were destroyed one after another within a hundred years. Only the Ascension Divine Kingdom could do such a thing.
However, Tuoba Kui shook his head seriously and said, “No, no! The destruction of the Helian Xia Dynasty was caused by the alliance of the Northern Yan Dynasty and another nation. However, the one who truly destroyed the Helian Xia Dynasty was actually the current Yin Yang Empire!”
What the h.e.l.l!
Jiang Ming was stunned.
To be able to completely destroy the Helian Xia Dynasty meant that the power of the Yin Yang Empire was naturally extraordinary. How could it have weakened to such a state after a thousand years, allowing the power of a leader of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect to be so corrupt?
Seeing the confusion in Jiang Ming’s heart, Tuoba Kui immediately spoke again, “The reason why the imperial court of the Yin Yang Empire declined was initially because of the heavy losses they suffered when they destroyed the Helian Xia Dynasty, and secondly because of the Northern Yan Dynasty… One had to know that the Yin Yang Empire’s national strength was far inferior to the Helian Xia Dynasty’s strength. It was only because the Helian Xia Dynasty was heavily injured that it was destroyed. Even though the Yin Yang Empire destroyed the Helian Xia Dynasty, it did not have the time to recuperate. Instead, it ushered in a great war with the Northern Yan Dynasty.
“The war between the Yin Yang Empire and the Northern Yan Dynasty lasted for a hundred years. Logically speaking, the Northern Yan Dynasty would have definitely won… However, who would have thought that at the critical moment, a mysterious existence would appear from the Yin Yang Empire and kill a prominent commander of the Northern Yan Dynasty at that time, causing their battlefront to collapse instantly? After that, that mysterious existence led an army to attack the capital of the Northern Yan Dynasty and slaughtered more than half of the Northern Yan’s imperial family… And that mysterious existence is none other than the Ancient Saint of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect!”
