The Talentless Sect Master Chosen By The System Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Toxic Ruins

Jaxson told Nightin all the questions he wanted to know,giving him the answers which he had been desiring for to know.

Nightin posed various questions such as what are the ident.i.ties of his siblings, how's the current situation of his family like right now,how could he be of any help.

Jaxson answered all of them without any hesitation,but he paused when Nightin asked how he could help. Jaxson opened up a portal behind him as he left while informing Nightin "If you truly wish to help,make it to the upper realm at least."

Jaxson had left saying this while thinking to himself "If only the young master still has his spiritual roots. There's no possible way for him to transcend into the upper realm,without any cultivation spiritual root.

Neither did Nightin nor Jaxson know that Phoenix had actually left his spiritual root behind for Nightin. The spiritual root was blazing flames as it gave off a scorching,searing heating sensation. Yet Nightin didn't know about it as it laid dormant within him.

Jaxson may have left,yet countless questions are still in his head,without an answer towards them.

The toxic swamp however still laid in front of him. To the side were tall gigantic trees with huge tree branches with fruits hanging down from them. Every tree had too many leaves to count as they gather up together,acting as an umbrella to s.h.i.+eld the sunlight off from the swamp. The leaves were purple as well,giving the swamp a gloomy feeling.

Nightin slowly circulated his spirit energy before traversing the swamp quickly but carefully. It wasn't a simple task as with time pa.s.sing,his spirit energy would soon deplete. He could only keep this up for about four hours,which isn't quite enough to leave this place.

Along the way,Nightin was intercepted by many ferocious and strong poisonous demon beasts,all of them glaring their fangs towards him. The demon beasts who are still alive in such a area,were all wary of their surroundings and barely approach other demon beasts.

Usually,they would be feeding on the berries and plants they could find in the toxic swamp and once in every while some small fishes in the small lakes.

If they were to detect any demon beasts nearby,both sides would usually bug out and retreat from the area. If one were to suffer any injuries,it could very well cause them their lives in this place. Here,only the Demon King who rules the area wouldn't have to fret for its own life unlike the others.

With Nightin's cultivation and sword skills,the usual demon beasts wouldn't even pose a match to him. Without much difficulty,he traversed through the swamp and managed to find a cave. A cave which was actually lit up by purple light glowing from within it.

Nightin wrinkled his eyebrows as he hid his presence while advancing towards the cave as slowly and carefully as possible. One mistake here would cost him his life.

As a cultivator and swordman,the greatest enemy isn't the opponent,but oneself. One must never underestimate the opponents or overestimate themselves. When that happens,that person is bound to have ended his journey on the path of cultivation without the slightest chance of making any further advancement.

Nightin took out his sword as he slowly entered the cave,what appeared in front of him was a grand sight. Something which shouldn't exist in such a place appeared before his very eyes.

Nightin was mind blown,how could he be seeing this,was he seeing things? Many questions started to run through his mind as they left through the gate quickly.

The cave was cleanly carved,one look and it's obvious that the cave is man made. The ceilings were decorated with small light rings that stuck onto it as they gave off the purple light he saw from afar.

To the sides were sapphire clear crystals which was so clear that one could even see their own reflection clearly on it.

Nightin decided not to advance any further until he could make sense of what exactly is going on here.

Sitting down of the cold hard ground. No,the ground actually felt warm. Nightin understood one thing for sure right now,this is where the Demon King resides.

Even so,he has no choice but to stay behind and recover his spirit energy first before leaving. If he were to make any rash movements and leave right now,the toxic air would corrode him immediately.

The moment he started to recover his spirit energy,a figure actually appeared in front of him. No,two figures. A man and a woman...A succubus.

Nightin leaped up and jumped back as he prepared for a tough battle.

The man waved both of his hands up into the air as he kept his hammer. The man didn't have a vicious and menacing look,neither did he have any killing intent towards Nightin.

The man looked at him as he asked "Are you the owner of that sword?" The man's voice was shocking,he clenched his fists tightly as he awaited Nightin's answer.

Boom! A thunder struck Nightin as he froze on the spot. The man actually knew about the mystical sword which was embedded in his soul,how could he actually know?

Nightin decided to test the waters first by acting that he wasn't aware of the sword's existence as he asked with a curious face "What sword are you talking about? The only sword I have is this one."

Nightin took out his phoenix sword as he caressed its blade carefully. The sword had exquisite carvings on a phoenix and dragon carved on the two different sides as it glazed with flames.

The man looked at his sword and his face froze,he opened his mouth,only for a few words to barely come out. "Where's Phoenix?"

Nightin was astonished,the man actually knew Phoenix and they seem quite close to each other. Otherwise,the man wouldn't have such a shocked expression filled with fear,regret and pain.

Nightin brought his sword to the side as he asked "How are you related to old man Phoenix?"

The man's face twisted in agony and pain as he took out his hammer once again. The hammer this time was different,scorch marks could be seen on it,which only amplifies to the fear and destruction it can bring. Lightning coiled around it like a snake wrapping its prey as it faced Nightin.

The man swung the hammer towards Nightin as it pierced through the air with great velocity. In front of the incoming hammer,Nightin realised that he couldn't move an inch. The s.p.a.ce and void around him had been sealed up, leaving him helpless against the approaching attack.

Right when Nightin thought that it was all over for him,a voice broke through the void and s.p.a.ce to pull him out. Nightin recognised the voice,it was the succubus who saved his life.

When Nightin got out,he was panting heavily as his chest heaved up and down,cold beads of sweat were dripping down his face.

The succubus gave the man a stare before asking Nightin "That mystical sword is on you right?"

The succubus posed a question which she herself has answered. The answer was clear to them,Nightin had the sword.

Nightin didn't bother to retreat or make a move,his efforts would be futile anyways. The succubus and man were both much stronger than him,they gave off a great pressure. One that overwhelms Phoenix who was at the peak Saint realm.

Nightin wanted to ask them just what their ident.i.ties are,but he chose not to. Even if he asked,he wouldn't get an answer at all,they might even silence him.

Nightin told the two of them "Phoenix entrusted this sword to me before he pa.s.sed on,I promised him and made a vow that day. I would search for the Soaring Sword Sect,even if they are above the heavens or below the sea,I won't break my promise."

"Boom!" A thunderbolt struck down outside the cave as though as if Nightin's words has angered the heavens. Nightin had actually attempted to challenge the heavens and its pride.
