[ POV Change ]

[ Glory City - City lord's Mansion ]

( ~ Giggle ~ )

Xiao Ning'er smiled as she looked at Ye Ziyun .

She wanted to thank her for staying beside her even when the Heavenly Tribulation would have killed her .

Ye Ziyun was happy to have her friend back but she was concerned for her . She was following that Lin Lingtian . Just remembering him , her body subconsciously shivered . That monstrous pressure he emitted from his very being itself still haunted her dreams .

( ~ Screech ~ )

The sound of a veil being torn was heard by them as Xiao Ning'er and Ye Ziyun turned to saw a distorted cut in the space Infront of them .

" You know beautiful , next time if you want to set a Spacial Isolation Formation in a room , form an invisibility formation over it ."

Ye Ziyun froze as she saw a hand wrap around Xiao Ning'er's shoulder but the horrifying thing was that she could one see just an arm around Xiao Ning'er's neck .

" Lin , Stop messing around ."

" Oh ! Don't be such a kill joy ."

Lin Lingtian's form retreated from the void world as his entire being appeared infront of Ye Ziyun who mentally froze .

( ~ Snap ~ )

" Is she alright ?" Lin Lingtian asked Xiao Ning'er as he snapped his fingers near Ye Ziyun's face .

" You don't remember ."

" Remember what ."

" She was in the underground palace where you forgot to restrain the aura of the Lævateinn ."

" Oh ! "

Lin Lingtian looked at Ye Ziyun, who was staring out aimlessly, and remembered that she was the girl he had bitch slapped when he was enraged during his battle with Nie Li.

Lin Lingtian put on the most kindness smile he could put up as he grasped Ye Ziyun's hand .

" Sister Ye Ziyun "

Gaining her attention even though she looked like she was about to have a heart attack , Lin Lingtian looked down with shame in his eyes ," I wanted to apologize for before . When I had fought against Nie Li , I was anger and you unfortunately came in between our fight while I was not in control of my emotion . And the second time , I was unaware of my unrestrained aura . I am Sorry for any kind of pain I may have caused ."

Lin Lingtian looked to see Ye Ziyun deep in thought but seeing her legs still shiver in fear subconsciously was quite guilt inducing .

Lin Lingtian smiled as he poured soul force into his spatial ring and pulled out a metal ring that exuded a cold aura .

" I know it's not much but please accept this gift of apology ."

Lin Lingtian placed the astral essence wind disc obtained from the ancient orchid ruins in Ye Ziyun's hands .

She quickly jerked her hand back and abruptly raised her head. Her vigilant gaze is fixed on Lin Lingtian.

( ~ Tap ~ )

Due to her jerking back her hand , a cut formed on her pointer finger as a blood drop dripped from it .

Lin Lingtian smiled and traced his pointer finger on her wound .

Channeling Yang Attributed Soul Force in the same was as used in the Daoyin Technique . With him tracing her wound , she felt nothing as her wound had disappeared .

Looking up to Lin Lingtian's kind smile , a blush covered her face .

Feeling Xiao Ning'er's death glare on the back of her neck , Lin Lingtian smile faltered as he stood up and said ," Ladies , you both continue your conversation ,I will leave ."

Lin Lingtian didn't glance at Xiao Ning'er knowing she was pissed . Her killer intent was a dead giveaway .

Space bent around him he figure disappeared from Ye Ziyun's room .

.....

[ 1 Hour Later ]

[ POV Change ]

( ~ Whoosh ~ )

The cold wind picked up as a figure was sitting on the walls of the city gazing upon it . Under the attention seeking stars that had lit up the night sky in their beauty . Lin Lingtian enjoyed the Atmosphere as he continued to indulge in his warm black Abyssal shark fin soup 🍲 .

Looking up to the sky , Lin Lingtian said ," You don't have to be so jealous ."

" Huff , who said I was jealous ?" Xiao Ning'er replied as she flew down from the sky .

" hahaha ~ sure ~ sure ."

( ~ Whoosh ~ )

A cold breeze blew in the night sky as Lin Lingtian asked Xiao Ning'er ," Want to drink some soup ?"

" No , thank you ."

( ~Slurp~ )

( ~ Slurp ~ )

" So what are you doing here ?"

" Enjoying the Atmosphere ...

A mischievous smirk formed on Lin Lingtian's face as he continued ," And waiting for the beautiful goddess to pay this mortal a visit "

A bush covered Xiao Ning'er's face as she saw Lin Lingtian say everything he just just while looking at her . In her mind , Lin Lingtian was complimenting her with his teasing .

" Where are we going next ? " Xiao Ning'er sat next to Lin Lingtian enjoying the peaceful environment .

" The Heavenly Sacred Border ."

" Huh ?! "

( ~ Slurp ~ )

" Why ?"

" The Thunder God's Meteorite Sword ."

" But don't you already have that weapon ."

" The Lævateinn."

" Yes ."

" Then why aren't you just saying that ?"

" Because it is annoying to pronounce that ."

Lin Lingtian rolled his eyes as he continued ," The Thunder God's Meteorite Sword is not for me but for you ."

" For me ?!"

" Yes ."

" But I don't use a sword ."

" I plan to melt the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword into a Kusarigama ."

" Oh ! "

( ~ Slurp ~ )

" Then why aren't we going to the Heavenly Sacred Border right now ? "

" No need to rush things ~ beautiful ~ just take a deep breath and enjoy the moment ."

Xiao Ning'er nodded as she moved slightly closer to Lin Lingtian with their fingers brushing against each other .

Lin Lingtian smiled at Xiao Ning'er as he remembered a song that was very popular on Earth perfect for moment .

Under the beautiful moon , a melody and a song was sung by Lin Lingtian who was enjoying the peaceful environment produced by twinkling night sky with Xiao Ning'er .

[ Glory City - Holy Orchid Institute ]

Within the Holy Orchid Institute, the Heavenly Sacred Border is a mysterious place. To access the Heavenly Sacred Border, only absolute geniuses are eligible. Once a person has completed the Heavenly Sacred Border test, they will become the brightest talent in Glory City. Even becoming a disciple of Demon Spiritualist Lord Ye Mo of Legend rank!

A person must be under the age of fifteen and have shown sufficient talent to enter the Heavenly Sacred Border .

Only three people have ever passed the Heavenly Sacred Border test in the magnificent history of Glory City. The Legend rank Demon Spiritualist Lord Ye Mo is one of them, while the other two have already perished in battle. They have all, however, attained the pinnacle of Demon Spiritualist Black Gold rank, which is only a step away from Legend rank!

The Heavenly Sacred Border is a highly revered site.

( ~ Thud ~ )

The couple of guards guarding the Heavenly Sacred Border slumped down on the ground as a long shadow needle was sticking out if there necks , blocking the flow of soul force for a few seconds as the backlash knocked out the guards .

Space twisted and formed a gateway as Lin Lingtian and Xiao Ning'er looked at the Heavenly Sacred Border .

( A.N : The Heavenly Sacred Border )

[ Lin Lingtian's POV ]

I take in the surroundings as I approach a white stone pedestal in the center of the stone building . The pedestal is only a couple feet tall and large enough for two people to stand on comfortably. It oddly mixes in with the foliage, as if it were meant to be here.

Placing my hand on the pedestal , a distorted feeling similar to the feeling of crossing a wormhole .

I found myself with Xiao Ning'er in a colourful and alien like environment .

The density of soul force in this place was impressive but less then the soul force inside the Yata no Kagami .

Feeling his second heart react , Lin Lingtian's eyes turned to a certain direction where the soul of one of the founders of Glory City Ye Yan was observing Lin Lingtian and Xiao Ning'er .

Infront of his eyes , Lin Lingtian's figure disappeared from his vision .

Feeling a chill behind him , Ye Yan froze as he heard a voice whisper into his ears .

" What are you looking at ?"

Ye Yan feeling the danger from Lin Lingtian tried to escape but he couldn't move as Lin Lingtian held his by the neck .

Ye Yan couldn't believe it , someone was actually touching a him , a soul with his physical body .

In actuality , Lin Lingtian was channeling Yin Attributed Soul Force to touch the soul of Ye Yan .

Lin Lingtian immediately recognised Ye Yan from the memories of Sheng Mu .

" Let me go , don't you know brat that I am one of the five Legend rank Demon Spiritualists that gathered tens of thousands of lucky survivors to Glory City once the Age of Darkness arrived, and we survived the demon beast horde's tidal attacks! Founder Ye Yan, I'm one of the five ancestral founders of Glory City! I'm also the patriarch of the Snow Wind clan. "Brat, are you afraid right away when you hear my name?" "I sealed my soul within the Heavenly Sacred Border and have been protecting Glory City," that gruff voice said proudly. Glory City would have fallen if it hadn't been for me!"

Lin Lingtian rolled his eyes and tighten his grip as he said in a sarcastic voice ," Then Great Founder Ye Yan , could you show me the way towards the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword ?"

" What ? How do you know about that ? "

" I am not going to give you an answer so ..... are you going to show me or not where the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword ? "

" Arrogant brat answer me . "

" No ."

Ye Yan blinked as he saw a girl float towards them .

' How is she able to fly ? Don't tell me that Glory City has produced a genius of the Legend rank at such a young age .'

" Lin , who is that ? "

" I am the ..."

" Shut up and show us where the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword is ."

" Hmmm I will show it to you if you show me your Cultivation Technique ." Ye Yan said to Xiao Ning'er .

" You know what forget this ."

Lin Lingtian summoned the soul lantern and stuffed Ye Yan into the Soul Lantern .

" Release Me ."

Lin Lingtian ignored Ye Yan's screams and stored the soul lantern in his spatial ring .

Xiao Ning'er opened her mouth to say something but Lin Lingtian just said ," Let's just go ."

Following the aura of the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword , Lin Lingtian and Xiao Ning'er moved deeper into the Heavenly Sacred Border .

It's the aura of the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword!

This terrible aura alone was a great pressure to others but to them who had experienced the terrifying aura of the lævateinn , to them the aura of the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword was not that impressive .

The core of the Heavenly Sacred Border is the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword! The Heavenly Sacred Border is being supported by the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword.

They went closer to the heart of the Heavenly Sacred Border as time passed. A divine sword materialized in their sight on an ancient altar far away. This sword had been engulfed in lightning. It emitted the sounds of wind and lightning.

Such a dreadful, terrible ambiance!

The Divine sword is endowed with a soul. They could still feel the bone-chilling chill even though they were a hundred meters distant.

"So that's the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword?" Xiao Ning'er exclaimed .

Xiao Ning'er raised her head and headed towards the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword after casting a glance at Lin Lingtian who had nodded .

Fifty meters away from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword, a terrifying pressure blew over.

Thunder God's Meteorite Sword has killed a countless amount of demon beasts. After soaking in the blood of those demon beasts, it became even more powerful. At the same time, it also devoured countless demon spirits, causing it to form an extremely powerful sword soul. It was filled with a terrifying murderous aura.

The terrifying murderous aura was tidal wave that swept over everything with the intent to swallow everything up.

It's really worthy of being an ancient sword!

If it was an ordinary demon spiritualist, even if they had reached Black Gold rank Demon Spiritualist, they would go insane from the terrifying murderous aura.

Xiao Ning'er's body erupted in a shower of black Lightning as she had entered into her Demon Spirit form .

After going into her demon spirit form, Xiao Ning'er slowly got closer to the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword. Step by step she ascend to the altar . When she got to within two meters from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword the murderous aura from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword could no longer be felt.

An exploding sound came from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword as it emitted a terrifying thunderous sound.

Tens of millions of demon beast's spirits turned into lightning flashes, bombarding towards Xiao Ning'er .

( ~ Crack ~ )

( ~ Boom ~ )

A bolt of lightning rushed towards Lin Lingtian who causally waved his hands while channeling Earth Attributed Soul Force as the lightning bolt hit the back of Lin Lingtian's hand .

( ~ Shine ~ )

( ~ Ting ~ )

A bright light engulfed the old altar as Lin Lingtian squinted his eyes .

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Lightning lights were bursting out from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword. However, as time went on, the lights slowly dimmed down.

Xiao Ning'er slowly walked towards the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword step by step.

In front of that thunder-like soul force, the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword was a bounded snake. It continued to struggle, but gradually calmed down.

Xiao Ning'er firmly grabbed onto the hilt.

( ~ Wom ~ )

A wave of power emitted from the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword as Xiao Ning'er pulled it out from the old altar .

[ City Lord's Mansion ]

Several experts were currently discussing by transferring of their voices to one another.

"Where did that sound wave come from?" Ye Zong asked, frowning his brows.

"Respect to the City Lord. This sound wave is invisible and traceless, even we couldn't track its position!" a few Black Gold rank Demon Spiritualists replied.

A randomly felt invisible sound wave. Ye Zong thought that terrifying Legend rank Demon Beasts would appear around Glory City and therefore summoned Demon Spiritualists of the Black Gold rank and above to discuss countermeasures as his father was currently not in Glory City but thankfully for Glory City he had broken through to the 1 star Legend rank not long ago due to the Cultivation technique that Nie Li's master had given him through Nie Li .

Several super experts of various other big families also encountered similar situations. However, ordinary Fighters and Demon Spiritualists weren't affected by it.

A very terrifying power!

[ Heavenly Sacred Border : The Core ]

Tightly grabbing onto the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword, Xiao Ning'er was deeply moved. This Thunder God's Meteorite Sword is really worthy of being an ancient divine item. It was powerful beyond imagination. It still begged the question , how powerful was a Spiritual Flame that Lin Lingtian confidently said he wanted to melt this sword into the kusarigama .

When she abruptly pulled out the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword, light flashed across the sky. Countless thunderbolts from all directions gathered in the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword in her hands and then slowly dimmed down.

The Thunder God's Meteorite Sword, which was surrounded by lightning, quickly dimmed down and turned into a huge ancient sword with some rust stains on it. Who would have thought that this huge sword is the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword that stirred the lightning and has unrivaled power?

At this moment, the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword has acknowledged its master, and became Xiao Ning'er's servant.

Normally, the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword wouldn't look any different from an ordinary iron sword. But when she injects her soul force into the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword, it emit a terrifying power.

" Wow ! Didn't expect the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword to be so powerful ."

" Hmm , Lin ."

" Yes ."

" How powerful is the Spiritual Flame that could melt the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword ? "

" Well to melt the Thunder God's Meteorite Sword with the Spiritual Flame it just needs to be made with powerful ingredients ."

" Huh ?! We are going to make the Spiritual Flame."

" Yes as I don't think we could find a natural Spiritual Flame as they are extremely rare to come by and even if we found it , it doesn't mean that the Spiritual Flame would be of high quality ."

" Oh ! Then what are the ingredients for the Spiritual Flame ? "

" I am thinking about forming the Spiritual fire of Nirvana ."

" .... "

" The ingredients ..."

" Don't tell me ."

" why ? "

" Just the name has told me that forming the Spiritual Flame is not going to be easy ."

" Fine , let's go ."

[ City lord - Holy Orchid Institute ]

[ Principal's Office ]

( ~ Knock ~ )

" May I come in principal ."

" Yes , Sheng Ming do you need something ? "

" I think you need to see this ."

" What's wrong ? "

" It's the Heavenly Sacred Border ."

" What happened ? "

" The Heavenly Sacred Border has .....
