Reborn Demon Emperor, I have to stay away from them

"I…"

Lu Xinghe hesitated.

In his moral view, even a sword should be given enough respect, rather than being treated as an object, as an external object that can be traded or taken at will.

After all, this sword inherited the will of a strong man, and it is still waiting for its owner, even if its owner will never come back.

Unexpectedly, Yu Mu kicked forward, and with his powerful physical strength bursting out, he actually broke half of the door into pieces.

In the dust and smoke, Yu Mu’s handsome face reflected the dim light of the Sword Soul Realm. He seemed to be between good and evil, with a warm and righteous aura, but also an indescribable evil charm.

Lu Xinghe just felt that this person was not what he thought. Now he... couldn't figure out Yu Mu's background.

"That sword should belong to you. I believe that no one in this world understands it better than you and is qualified to own it. Just think of yourself as saving it."

There was a hint of sadness in Yu Mu's voice.

This sword... was obtained by me in my previous life, but I just used it as a tool to bribe the Demon Lord. That was not the ending it should have.

"Does what I said make sense?"

"Stop talking... let me try." Lu Xinghe believed Yu Mu's lies, and he could empathize with this kind of place, so... he actually stepped into the stone gate before Yu Mu!

Immediately! Endless sword sounds like dragon roars rang out! Lu Xinghe's scalp suddenly went numb, and he saw that the dense sword spirits with endless sword intent directly surrounded him.

But there seemed to be an invisible wall behind him, preventing him from retreating at all. He turned back mechanically, hoping that Yu Mu could lend a hand.

Then, he saw Yu Mu, who was still outside the stone gate, and made an encouraging gesture to him with a look of pity on his face.

"Yu Mu! You dog! I C..."

Before Lu Xinghe could finish his curse, the densely packed sword spirits rushed towards him! Lu Xinghe was instantly submerged by the overwhelming sword light.

"Alas, who can say for sure about the affairs of this world? Everyone wants to be detached from the world, but there is no such thing as true detachment. It is nothing but one's original nature and the level of life."

A small tea table was set up outside the stone gate. Under the sword light, Yu Mu was brewing tea, very elegantly.

"Xinghe, this is your battle. It depends on how much of the sword intent you can comprehend. I won't interfere."

Yu Mu laughed. Just these sword spirits. If he killed them... firstly, it could help him transcend completely, and secondly, it could absorb and refine the pure power that emerged after their dissipation.

It would not be a problem for Lu Xinghe to deal with them. If he helped, he would be robbing them of their power for nothing. After all, he was not a swordsman.

But Lu Xinghe felt completely different. He felt that Yu Mu was being completely shameless and disrespectful.

These sword spirits... brought him a lot of pressure! Exquisite sword moves, fierce killing, and unstoppable sword intent! Is this... an ancient sword cultivator?

Lu Xinghe was originally very impatient. These sword spirits were very powerful, and they were fighting one against many. He was afraid and anxious...

Then, after being hit by several swords and bleeding profusely, Lu Xinghe felt pain. In just a short moment, his entire aura changed.

The sneaky feeling of the dog disappeared without a trace. Instead, his face was expressionless and his mind was focused. His eyes were like the cold light of a sword! It was as if he had become a completely different person!

He raised his sword and stabbed it into the ground beneath his feet. For a moment, a deep blue sword formation rose up. The cold blue made Lu Xinghe's aura even more mysterious.

In the sword formation, his movements were like a ghost, and even afterimages seemed to appear! He used 150 swords out of 50 sword spirits, and only used three swords for each sword spirit!

And this was not just a simple kill! From Yu Mu's perspective, the sword formation separated the sword spirits from their chaotic siege. In the sword formation, Lu Xinghe's every aspect was terribly strengthened.

The first sword was used to block. The second sword used the same sword technique as the enemy sword spirit. The third sword used the same sword technique to kill the sword spirit!

One hundred and fifty swords, twenty-seven breaths.

Even the afterimage of Lu Xinghe still remained in the sword formation.

Lu Xinghe has acquired fifty kinds of sword skills and supplemented by the power of fifty sword souls. Now his cultivation aura is infinitely close to the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.

The azure sword formation slowly dissipated, and Lu Xinghe knelt on one knee on the ground, breathing heavily, beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his handsome face as he spoke.

"Yu Mu, you're selling me out?"

"I'm helping you." Yu Mu handed the teacup to Lu Xinghe's mouth.

Lu Xinghe smelled the fragrant tea and immediately grabbed it and drank it in one gulp.

"If I come in, I will take away at least half of these fifty powers. So, you've made a profit."

Yu Mu smiled and bowed to the space around him, even though there were no more dead people here.

"That sword formation is very powerful."

"That's right." Lu Xinghe recovered some strength, stood up and smiled proudly, but this action affected the wound on his body, and he couldn't help but grimace again.

“I have practiced the Azure Sword Formation for more than ten years. The opponent’s speed, attack power, etc. in the sword formation will be entangled by the sword intent and reduced.

I can maximize my spiritual power, speed, attack power, physical strength, perception... at least three times better."

Yu Mu nodded.

There is a reason why Lu Xinghe is called the giant of swordsmanship. If Ye Tian did not hold a divine weapon and transcend the level of life, would he want to kill Lu Xinghe easily? I'm afraid it would be a foolish dream.

"Ah, I shouldn't have told you. If you turn around and deal with me, I'll be in big trouble."

Lu Xinghe stepped forward and punched Yu Mu lightly: "You just sold it out to me."

"It won't happen again." Yu Mu smiled helplessly.

Getting along with Lu Xinghe is different from getting along with Master.

The master is a naughty old man, but he does have some dignity.

But hanging out with Lu Xinghe does give her a different kind of ease, or perhaps it's making up for the debt she owed in her previous life. Lu Xinghe, however, is still the same as he was in the previous life.

"I have refined all the power of those sword spirits, so... doesn't it mean it has no power to support it?"

As he walked, the raging sword intent and the harsh sword sounds disappeared in the Sword Soul Realm.

At the center, one can see an ancient long sword floating quietly on the sword platform. Even after countless years, it still shines coldly and carries a kind of proud character like that of a sword cultivator.

"It has recognized you as its master. If you nurture it from time to time, it will be able to return to its peak."

Yu Mu took a look at the long sword. The sword intent emanating from the sword was truly terrifying, and this was its home ground.

The spirit of the weapon has awakened and is sending out hostile signals.

It seems... taking down the sword without damaging it is not an easy task even if he and Lu Xinghe join forces.
