Chapter 284 [Sword]

The illusion before my eyes looked more like a unique world at the edge of the distant universe, the Kingdom of Swords.

Everything here is made up of countless flying swords. From the land beneath your feet to the sky above your head, and even the air and water, all are condensed from various swords.

This is a unique space constructed entirely of sharp objects, full of endless imagination and creativity.

When you step onto this magical land, you will find that the ground under your feet is not ordinary soil or rock, but countless flying swords of different sizes and shapes that are closely arranged.

The swords are nested and intertwined with each other, forming a stable and solid surface.

From short and delicate daggers to broadswords several meters long, from slender scimitars to broad and heavy axes, each weapon exudes its own light and breath.

If you look closely, you'll find that even the tiniest blades have been carefully polished, with a surface as smooth as a mirror that reflects the surrounding scenery.

Walking on such a "sword land", every step will make a crisp and pleasant sound, as if it is the most harmonious music in nature.

What’s even more interesting is that when people walk by, the “footprints” they originally left behind will quickly be filled in by other flying swords, restoring their original appearance, just like a huge jigsaw puzzle board that is constantly being reassembled and changed.

Looking up, you will find that the sky here is also made up of densely arranged flying swords.

The difference is that they are no longer stationary, but float and rotate at an extremely slow speed.

Some of these flying swords flashed cold silver light, while others glowed with faint blue or scarlet red light, together weaving a magnificent sky net.

During the day, the sun shines through the gaps in the sword, casting mottled shadows;
At night, countless star-like bright spots flicker and jump in the sky, forming a magnificent picture.

What’s even more amazing is that at certain moments, this sword sky will present a wonderful scene.

For example, on a full-moon night, all flying swords will adjust their angles so that the moonlight can directly penetrate the entire sky, forming a path to the horizon;
Before the storm comes, the flying swords in the air will quickly gather and form a huge vortex, sweeping through like a tornado, but it will not cause any harm to people. Instead, it has a unique beauty.

In this world, there are even life forms that use flying swords as their bodies.

They either soar in the sky or shuttle across the ground, with various shapes and functions.

Some are as light and nimble as birds, flying freely among the sword forests;
Some are huge and bulky, like moving castles, carrying other creatures to build their homes on their backs.

Some can also transform and change their own structure at will to adapt to different environmental requirements.

These creatures made up of flying swords not only have powerful attack power, but more importantly, they are extremely intelligent, know how to use the surrounding environment to protect themselves, and live in harmony with the outside world.

In such a world built by swords, the originally peaceful sky suddenly changed.

Countless flying swords began to spin rapidly in the air as if summoned by some mysterious force, gradually converging into a powerful energy vortex.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light burst out from the center of the vortex, and then a huge flying sword emitting a faint blue light all over its body broke through the air. Its size was so huge that it almost covered half of the sky.

The appearance of this huge sword instantly attracted the attention of the two people.

The giant sword trembled slightly in the air, as if looking for a target.

Finally, it locked onto a young man below, Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian felt a strong and oppressive aura coming towards him, and he immediately realized that this would be a life-and-death contest.

He took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, then he leaped forward, drew the sword at his waist, and faced the impending threat.

With a deafening bang, the two swords collided in mid-air.

Although the sword in Li Chengqian's hand seemed much smaller than the giant sword, he showed amazing fighting power in this battle with a huge disparity in strength by virtue of his agility and superb swordsmanship.

Every time he swung the sword, he could accurately hit the key part of the giant sword, significantly slowing down its forward speed.

However, as time went on, Li Chengqian gradually felt exhausted.

Although the giant sword moved slowly, the impact force generated by each collision was extraordinary, and it even made it difficult for him to stand firm.

At this time, Li Chengqian had an idea and decided to adopt a more flexible strategy. He no longer resisted head-on, but chose to jump and dodge lightly, while looking for the opponent's weaknesses to counterattack.

After a perfect dodge, Li Chengqian discovered the pattern in the giant sword's attack trajectory and used this to quickly adjust his position.

He suddenly accelerated and rushed forward. At the last moment, he used all his strength to stab the long sword in his hand into the heart of the giant sword, the node where the hilt and the sword body were connected.

This blow was like a bolt from the blue. It not only hit the target accurately, but also triggered a series of chain reactions.

With a crisp "crack" sound, the entire giant sword suddenly became unstable, and cracks began to appear on the originally indestructible shell.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Chengqian performed several swift and fierce sword moves in succession, each of which accurately hit the weak point on the giant sword.

Finally, with a cracking sound that shook the sky, the once invincible giant sword collapsed and turned into countless fragments that flew everywhere. The sky returned to calm, as if everything that had happened before was just an illusion.

Li Chengqian stood there panting, sweat and rain mixed on his cheeks, a light of victory flashing in his eyes.

He knows very well that in this unique world made of swords, courage and wisdom are the true sources of power.

This ancient sword lies quietly on the bluestone, as if it has traveled through the tunnel of time and space, carrying the secrets and glory of ancient civilization.

The sword is about 1.2 meters long and is a deep iron gray in color, revealing its solemnity and vicissitudes after years of accumulation.

The sword is of moderate width, and although the edges on both sides are not sharpened, it gives people a sense of unstoppable sharpness.

The most eye-catching feature is that there is a thin groove in the center of the sword spine, like a long blood vessel running through it, adding a bit of agility to the whole.

The hilt is carefully crafted from ebony, which feels warm and delicate, and remains as shiny as new after countless years.

A small and exquisite jade stone is inlaid on the end of the handle, showing a light emerald green, which forms a sharp contrast with the dark tones of the surrounding area, making it the most eye-catching part of the entire sword.

The scabbard is wrapped in high-quality cowhide, and the surface is engraved with intricate patterns, including natural scenes such as mountains, rivers, flowers and birds, as well as heroic scenes of ancient warriors fighting with swords. Every stroke reveals the craftsman's superb skills and pursuit of perfection in details.

When the sunlight shines onto the sword through the gaps between the leaves, the subtle concave and convex textures will show a different charm between the interweaving of light and shadow, as if this is not only a weapon, but also a work of art that carries historical memory and cultural heritage.
