Chapter 460: Rain of Swords
After putting away all the items, he then returned to the Nuwa Temple.
At this time, Li Xiaoyao had yet to return.
He was feeling a bit bored waiting for his return. He then gave Lin Yueru and Tang Yu a heads-up and left the Nuwa Ruins to return to the surface of the Sacred Lake.
He was going to use this time to level up and make some Evolution Pills as well as Divine Beast bloodline.
He would recruit even more followers later, and he would need a great number of Evolution Pills and Divine Beast bloodlines later as their demands increase as well.
Of course, the Evolution Pills and Divine Beast bloodlines were useless for the monsters that were Divine Beasts and beyond. However, he could still use them to improve his followers that were at the base level.
“Since there’s nothing for me to do here, I should try playing with a sword!”
After he left the Sacred Lake, he then looked at the Earth Drakes that were resting by the lake. He transformed into his silver-hair red-eyes form and took out Deicide, and transformed it into a sword.
Practicing using a sword in human form was the best. With Deicide in hand, he slowly walked toward an Earth Drake.
But before he even came close to them, around eight Earth Drakes had already started running toward him.
Whoos.h.!.+
He spun Deicide around his wrist twice and he then held the hilt of the sword using his palm, and pierced toward one of the Earth Dragon,
“Roar!”
The Earth Dragon attempted to slam him with its paw. Deicide slightly moved and deflected its blow and then began to spin around his body, reflecting lights from its blade as it continuously slashed on the Earth Drake’s body, causing blood to splash out.
His favorite weapon since he was little was the sword.
If it was not because he would gain extra buff if he used Deicide as a monkey, he would have used the sword.
A sword was a dangerous weapon. It was born to kill.
A sword was the most sacred weapon since ancient times. It was of the n.o.blest and dignified of all weapons and was coveted by both Man and G.o.ds. It was the ancestor of all melee weapons, and as a melee weapon, there were many ways for it to be used. Those who had mastered its depths would slowly become a legend.
No matter if it were kings or some swordsmen, they all loved using swords.
Other than swords being sharp, the main reason was that equipping a sword would give one a domineering aura, and strike fear in the hearts of others.
Jiang Feng, who was still under the effect of the Severely Injured status, with the gap between the beginning and end of the plot, gave him the time to train with swords.
Perhaps it was because he had learned how to use the Sword Manipulation Technique, he could easily use Deicide in its sword form.
Due to his high speed, each of his attacks would generate the sound of a sonic boom as well as reflecting lights. The eight Earth Drakes could not touch him at all.
He was like a phantom as he stepped on the winds. No matter where his sword pointed to, even the gra.s.s would be cut down!
At this point, he was already drowned within the joy of using a sword. His movement speed kept increasing and so did his attack speed. Each of the Earth Drakes slowly fell onto the ground and transformed into bodies.

“Big sis! Quickly! The Sacred Lake is just in front! As soon as I have harvested the Ziyun Herb next to the Sacred Lake, I could then complete my quest and reach level 100,” A little girl at the age of around 13 or 14 rode on a pink rabbit, heading toward the Sacred Lake.
There was a beautiful woman following behind her riding on a white peac.o.c.k.
If any other players were here they would definitely recognize that the beautiful woman riding a white peac.o.c.k was the currently famous celebrity Qing Xun. The little girl was her younger sister Qingqing.
Qing Xun smiled as she glanced at Qingqing, and then browsed the official message board as she chatted with her friends in the chatroom.
Singer Huazi. “Beauty Qing Xun, is it true that your crew is filming in the Divine Dominion?”
Qing Xun. “Yes.”
Heavenly King Yaoyan. “Director Zhang is quite forward-thinking. But I have to say that the Divine Dominion is really the best place to film any cla.s.sical movies or tv-shows. It can save a lot of money when it comes to costumes and locations. How unfortunate. I would want to work with beauty Qing Xun too, but I can’t after accepting a job in advertising Divine Dominion. What a shame.”
Qing Xun. “Next time then. (Smile)”
Actor Chu Ge: Qing Xun, I heard that Director Zhang wants to ask the s.h.i.+fter Emperor to make a cameo, right? Can you ask him for a signature? If you can have him add me as a friend, I can be your laborer for one month.
Qing Xun. “Yes, Director Zhang did have that thought and the s.h.i.+fter Emperor is on the Divine Dominion continent as well. But it seems that the s.h.i.+fter Emperor is quite arrogant and difficult to contact. The person in charge of the Ancient City has also refused our request. It seems that I have lost a laborer then.”
…
“Big Sis! Big Sis! Someone is killing monsters in front! He is so powerful!”
Just as Qing Xun was chatting away happily, Qingqing’s voice came.
“Hm?”
When she heard Qingqing’s voice, she was slightly stunned, and then went over as she rode on her white peac.o.c.k.
After a short while, she then ended up next to Qingqing.
She looked at where Qingqing was pointing to, and she then saw a man with silver hair, red eyes, in a white robe and wielding a longsword, fighting against around twenty Earth Drake. Her eyes opened wide and she could not shut her mouth.
“That is… the s.h.i.+fter Emperor!”
“The s.h.i.+fter Emperor? Big Sis, he is the s.h.i.+fter Emperor that you kept on mentioning? Wow! Big Brother s.h.i.+fter Emperor is so cool! So handsome! I’ve fallen in love with him! Big Sis, you cannot grab him away from me!” Qingqing said excitedly like a mini grownup.
“Oh, you. Didn’t you say you’re in love with Brother Chu Ge? Make up your mind.” Qing Xun then nudged Qingqing’s little head with her finger. But she then narrowed her eyes as she looked at Jiang Feng.
When she looked at Jiang Feng wielding the sword, her eyes eventually beamed with excitement.
She then brought up the recording panel and began to record a video.
Beep. Beep.
People kept on tagging her in her friend group on the message board.
She gave it a glance, and then quickly snapped an angled shot of Jiang Feng diving down from the sky with Deicide and slas.h.i.+ng into an Earth Drake. She then posted it into the group.
Qing Xun. “What a coincidence. Encountered the s.h.i.+fter Emperor killing monsters when I’m helping my younger sister with her quest.”
Chu Ge. “Woooooow… My G.o.d! The s.h.i.+fter Emperor is even more good looking than me! The angle shot is perfect! I think I’m bending over, ah…”
Singer Liangliang. “Oh my goodness! Free benefits as soon as I come online! And it’s the angle shot of my idol! I can’t take it… Begging little sis Qing Xun to get his contact and add me as a friend!”
Actor Guan Renzi. “Can you all stop squeeling? I wonder what would happen if your fans see you all like this. Luckily I don’t have many fans. Little sis Qing Xun, I only want to be added as friends, just tell me what you want!”
…
Other than a group of fans, there were also other celebrities that were saying unsavory things out of jealousy and envy. Qing Xun read the content of her chat, and then shook her head with a bitter smile and closed the panel. She then looked at Jiang Feng who was still killing monsters.
As he was engrossed in his training, two hours had simply pa.s.sed by.
Even the Earth Drakes by the lake had already been resp.a.w.ned once.
At this time, Jiang Feng’s aura suddenly strengthened as his eyes turned sharp. He looked at all the Earth Drakes approaching him. He suddenly stomped on the ground, with Deicide still in his hand, he flew up into the sky.
As he arrived on top of the Earth Drakes, his speed had doubled and light kept on reflecting his sword and his figure.
Finally, he suddenly stopped as he spun in the middle of the air with his sword pointed downward and his right leg bent.
Whoos.h.!.+
Swords of light kept on being unleashed from Deicide as it transformed into tens of thousands of rains of swords, falling directly on the Earth Drakes.
The rain kept on attacking for ten seconds.
After ten seconds, all the Earth Drakes in a hundred meters radius turned into corpses as they fell onto the ground.
Ding. System Prompt. Congratulations. You have created a Rank One “Unnamed” Sacred Skill. Please name it!
“Rain of Swords!”
Ding. System Prompt: Naming successful. As you are the Sect Leader of the s.h.i.+fter Emperor Palace, a skill book of this skill has been automatically created!
“Hm? Is this a new function after the update on the Divine Dominion Continent? After a Sect Leader has created a skill, the system will give a skill book for free?” Jiang Feng said with a smile as he looked at the Rain of Swords skill book that had appeared in his hand.
