Mo Rongzhan walked up the stairs made of all kinds of swords. It was quiet all the way until he was halfway up the mountain, but no sword spirit came to test him.
Why was it so quiet?
That thing still hadn't come out from his black sword!
Mo Rongzhan frowned. He remembered that the sword spirit that had been chattering non-stop had entered the black sword and hadn't come out. Could it have been killed by the sword demon?
He waved the black sword. He wasn't used to not having that thing calling out to him.
However, Mo Rongzhan liked peace and quiet. Now he felt a bit more peaceful.
There was something wrong with this path!
Mo Rongzhan found that after walking for half a day, he was still halfway up the mountain. He couldn't reach the peak at all.
He stopped and didn't move forward. That would only consume his spiritual energy.
Why couldn't he reach the peak? It seemed like the test wasn't over.
Mo Rongzhan sat down cross-legged. His spiritual energy consumption was huge. Although he had the Spirit Concentration Pill, it wasn't enough. This Sword Mountain was different from the Xuantian Continent. Every step consumed his spiritual energy. Plus, he didn't know how many tests there would be. He didn't even know if he could last until he found the sword saint.
Mo Rongzhan was no longer in a hurry to go up the mountain. He relaxed and sat down on a boulder to recover his spiritual energy. He closed his eyes and quickly entered a meditative state. He didn't notice the change in the air around him.
Around Mo Rongzhan, there was a silver light in the air. It was coming from the black sword and was unknowingly absorbing his spiritual energy.
The black sword next to him was also changing. The complicated patterns on the blade had turned silver instead of red. The black and silver intersected, making the black sword even colder.
As Mo Rongzhan's spiritual energy became more abundant, the silver threads in the air increased and the black sword emitted waves of cold air.
The silver light gradually gathered together in the air, turning into a silver ball. Upon closer inspection, it looked somewhat similar to the Sword Spirit, but it no longer looked like a ball of fluffy white fur. Moreover, it had a silver body of light, although its eyes were still not much bigger than mung beans.
Mo Rongzhan opened his eyes and a ball of light flashed in front of him.
"Master, you're awake!" The sword spirit happily called out.
"I wasn't sleeping!" Mo Rongzhan said coldly, "How did you become like this?"
The sword elf looked at his short hands. "I don't know. I think I've become stronger."
Mo Rongzhan picked up the black sword and found that it was much lighter, but the edge seemed to be darker.
"Look, don't you think I've become stronger? I told you that your sword is suitable for my training. "The sword spirit said with a smile.
"It suits you. You don't suit my sword." Mo Rongzhan said coldly.
The Sword Spirit shouted, "Don't be so cold, I can really become a very powerful Sword Soul."
"Go find another master." Mo Rongzhan said.
"Fate brings us together. You saw me, and I saw you. This is our fate." The sword sprite said confidently, "So, you are my master. I have decided to be your sword."
Mo Rongzhan was too lazy to argue with it. Once he found his Sword Saint, this sword spirit would naturally leave.
"Eh? Did you go the wrong way? How did we end up inside the sword formation?" the sword sprite cried out.
"You also think that this is a sword array?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice.
The sword sprite circled around, "This is a large sword array. We can't get out."
"Since it's an array, then there must be a way to break it." Mo Rongzhan said indifferently.
"How do we break it?" The sword sprite asked, "This array is really strong."
Mo Rongzhan did not reply. He looked around. This place looked the same as the sword mountain he had seen before, but he was walking halfway up the mountain.
Was the array halfway up the mountain? He thought back to the path he had taken after entering the mountain gate. There didn't seem to be anything strange.
Then where did it go wrong?
Sword array …
If this was a sword array, why wasn't there a sword?
In the past, when Mo Rongzhan was practicing his sword, he had entered an array before. Only by learning the sword manual of the sword array would he be able to break the array. However, he couldn't see where the sword manual was, nor did he know who had set up the array.
"Let's jump down." The sword sprite pointed down the mountain and said.
"What's down there?" Mo Rongzhan asked.
"I don't know." The sword sprite shook its head, "Since we can't get out, and there's no way out, we can only find another way out."
It sounded reasonable.
The sword sprite laughed and said, "I'm so smart. I actually thought of it."
"…" Mo Rongzhan narrowed his eyes at the sword sprite, "Are you guessing?"
"Aiyah, no matter what, we have to try."
Mo Rongzhan picked it up and threw it down the cliff.
The sword sprite cried out, forgetting that it could fly. It actually fell down like a ball.
Since there was no way out, he would find a way out himself.
Mo Rongzhan jumped. He didn't know how deep the cliff was, but since there was only one way out of the sword array, he had to give it a try.
The wind whistled past his ears. He circulated his Sea of Qi to stabilize his body and grabbed the screaming sword sprite. The cliff seemed bottomless. They had been falling for a long time, but they still hadn't reached the ground.
Suddenly, his black sword emitted a beam of light. In the depths of the cliff, beams of light formed a rainbow.
Mo Rongzhan landed on the rainbow.
"Sword beam array," the sword sprite shouted.
The rainbow sent them from the cliff to the mountain peak. The two sword beams intertwined and instantly formed an even bigger rainbow.
"Your sword …" The sword sprite looked at Mo Rongzhan doubtfully. "This sword beam existed in the past. You've been to Sword Mountain?"
The black sword in Mo Rongzhan's hand emitted two sword beams. The red light and silver light intertwined. The black sword's veined patterns became clearer, emitting an ancient, mysterious, and powerful aura.
This was the sword beam and sword array he had left behind?
What about his Sword Sage?
"Wow, so comfortable!" the sword sprite shouted in satisfaction. It lay in the sword beam like it was wandering in a warm cloud.
Mo Rongzhan frowned. "You …"
He looked at the sword sprite in surprise. Its originally round body was expanding, turning from a small ball to a huge ball. Even its hands and legs were slowly growing longer. It seemed like it was … turning into a human?
"Wow, how did I become like this?" The sword sprite looked at its hand. "Did I become a sword spirit so quickly?"
"Who are you?" Mo Rongzhan asked.
The sword sprite held its forehead. "My head hurts. Let me think."
Mo Rongzhan pointed the black sword at it. "You're not a sword sprite."
"I am …" The sword sprite rubbed its forehead. "You look familiar. Have we met before?"
