Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator
Chapter 20 - The True AppearanceThe netherworld language was entirely different from the divine language that Zhan Chen studied. Evil emperor had described many things about the things in netherworld. There was a section specially dedicated for describing the complex Netherworld language.
"Here it is", Zhan Chen's eyes lit up as he glanced at the symbols representing the netherworld language. "Let's see what is written on this sword", he murmured as he started to match the symbols engraved upon sword with the symbols described in the Odessy of Netherworld book.
'Devour', Zhan Chen became speechless after deciphering the meaning behind the symbols on the rusty looking sword. "What is the meaning behind it? Who gives such a weird name to a sword?", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
He checked the rusty looking sword for sometime but couldn't find anything from it. When he was just going to give up, a idea came to his mind. "Am I a pig? How can I forget about such a thing", Zhan Chen cursed himself after the idea came to his mind.
He spread his soul consciousness outward and found Little Tao sitting outside his gate. She was talking happily with a maid who was standing beside Little Tao. Generally maids were not allowed to relax while they were waiting upon their masters but little Tao was different. She was allowed to relax which was specially permitted by his eldest aunt.
"Little Tao, come in", Zhan Chen shouted in a clear voice.
"Young master, what happened?", little Tao asked after entering his room.
"I want some materials but you are not allowed to go outside for them. Send someone else to fetch the materials I am going to write", Zhan Chen replied.
He took out a paper and write the name of some materials on top of it. Then he took out some money that he had received from fatty Xu.
"Here is the money. Take it. Remember not to go outside of the estate without my permission", Zhan Chen reminded Little Tao before sending her out.
"Let's see what is hidden beneath this rusty appearance of the sword", Zhan Chen murmured to himself. He had written the name of some weapon cleansing materials as he was eager to see the true appearance of the sword.
Zhan Chen waited sometime for Zhan Qingyue after eating his launch. "Looks like big sister is not coming today. I better not waste anymore time", he murmured to himself.
He entered inside the diagram world again and focused his mind in studying the Odessy of Netherworld. For a strange reason, he found the Odessy of Netherworld book interesting.
Time flew past and Zhan Chen continued to read the Odessy of Netherworld book. The look of interest in his eyes grew deeper as he engrossed himself more deeply inside the contents of the book.
After an unknown period of time, Zhan Chen decided to stop. He came out from the diagram world after keeping the book on its previous position.
"Phew! What an interesting world", Zhan Chen murmured after coming out of the diagram world.
He looked at the sky which was already dark from his window. "Unknowingly, a day has passed. I wonder whether they manage to find the materials I have ordered".
Zhan Chen spread his soul consciousness and couldn't find little Tao before his door. He found another maid standing outside his door.
"Come inside", he ordered in a clear voice. "Fifth young master, is their something you want?", the maid asked after pushing the door open.
"Where is little Tao?", Zhan Chen inquired. "Young master, she is helping in decoration for tomorrow's ceremony."
"Oh right! She has given me some materials and money before going towards the ancestral hall". The maid took out a exquisite looking package and some silver coins. Zhan Chen took the package but didn't take the money. "You can keep the money", he spoke nonchalantly.
The maid became flustered at first but she kept the money after seeing the nonchalant attitude of Zhan Chen. She had a dazzling smile on her face as she left Zhan Chen's room.
Zhan Chen spread his soul consciousness outside and his focus was on the house next to him. It was his mother's palace which was adjacent to his living place. He saw his mother who was sitting cross-legged. She was submerged in cultivation as her her pair of beautiful eyes were closed.
The heaven and earth energy was pouring inside her room as she was cultivating diligently. "Looks like she will make her breakthrough soon", Zhan Chen murmured after retracting his soul consciousness.
Zhan Chen ordered the maid to bring a large barrel for him. He opened up the exquisite looking package and brought out two big containers from it.
He unplugged a container and sniffed it. "Heavy spirit water, quality is alright", he remarked after taking a sniff. Then he unplugged the other container and took a sniff of it. "Blood of a high level grade two magical beast", he nodded his head in satisfaction.
The maid returned with a large barrel with her. There was another maid who was supporting her in bringing the wooden barrel. "You can place the barrel in courtyard. Fill the barrel with clean water after you place it there", Zhan Chen ordered them after he saw them bringing the wooden barrel towards his room.
He picked up the two containers and walked outside. He ordered the maids to left him alone after they filled the wooden barrel with water. Zhan Chen unplugged the containers and poured them one by one in the wooden barrel.
A slightly crimson looking water appeared in the wooden barrel. Zhan Chen channeled his spiritual energy and a white fire appeared out of thin air on his palm.
He turned his palm towards the watery surface of the barrel and started to heat the water with his soul flame. The soul flame was rather potent as it managed to boil the water within few minutes.
Zhan Chen walked towards his room and brought out the rusty looking sword with him. He plunged the rusty sword into the boiling barrel.
After waiting for fifteen minutes, he took out the rusty looking sword from the boiling water. A pitch black sword came to his view. There was a metallic shine on the edge of the sword as the sword had an glowing luster despite its pitch black appearance. "A great sword", Zhan Chen murmured subconsciously after seeing the true appearance of the rusty looking sword.
