Maximum Comprehension: Taking Care of Swords In A Sword Pavilion

Chapter 2170: 926, Within three feet, a sword can slay three Dao Extinguishing experts.
 

Whether it was the people from the All-Encompassing Sword Sect or those waiting at the mountain gate eager to purchase swords, all had faces of stupefied shock.

They hadn’t even grasped the meaning of what Han Muye had said.

It was plausible for the inheritance of a sword to be organized.

After all, it stemmed from a major sect, where various treasures invariably originated.

It was rare, however, to clearly state the identity of the sword’s owner and the background of the related powers.

If it might not be so extraordinary to clarify the sword owner’s identity and background, then to elucidate the inherited sword techniques and cultivation techniques was beyond the capability of ordinary forces.

To accomplish all these and to present the inherited sword techniques was that even possible?

“Wanhua Sword Sect was not a sect affiliated with the Thirty-Six Sword Sects back then, and later, it too met with destruction…”

“But that’s a Great Sword Sect!”

It took a long while before someone muttered under their breath.

The originally silent plaza slowly filled with voices.

Some discussed the Wanhua Sword Sect, some questioned whether there really was such a Vice Sect Master of the Wanhua Sword Sect.

There were also soft conversations about the inherited sword techniques of the Wanhua Sword Sect.

However, nobody paid attention to what Han Muye had said about the additional gift.

It was just talk.

How could the inheritance truly be given as an add-on?

Besides, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect couldn’t possibly have truly obtained the inheritance.

At most, they might rely on some vague clues to reconstruct a fraction of the sword techniques from the past, but a true inheritance?

Moreover, if there really was an inheritance, would the All-Encompassing Sword Sect be willing to part with it?

Han Muye’s gaze swept over the crowd, and he waved his hand.

A golden light curtain flickered into existence.

Upon the curtain, an old man in a green and red robe held a Bright Longsword, its blade gleaming, swaying with the wind.

As the sword light danced, jade-colored tall trees appeared on the screen, followed by the descent of golden flowers.

The golden flowers looked resplendent but when they burst, the small swords they turned into were capable of shattering the mountains and rocks revealed within the light curtain.

Such a scene dazzled the onlookers.

“This, this is the Jade Tree Sky Flower Sword Technique!”

Finally, someone exclaimed in astonishment.

Without seeing the sword technique displayed on the light curtain, no one would have believed that Han Muye had truly presented a sword technique.

“This, this sword technique seems to be connected by blood to the Jade Tree Sword Technique of the Mingtang Sword Sect?”

“Right, the Jade Tree Sword Technique is indeed inherited from this technique!”

Another whisper came through the crowd.

The Mingtang Sword Sect was a sect situated thirty thousand miles away, with a legacy not inferior to the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

It was unexpected that this sect’s inheritance was connected by lineage to the swords Han Muye had in hand.

Many eyes suddenly lit up with interest.

“Sect Master Han, are you truly offering this inheritance?”

“Sect Master Han, what is the asking price for this sword?”

At this moment, people finally began to inquire about the price.

And at last, there were those who started to harbor a desire to acquire this sword.

The noisy and bustling plaza slowly calmed down, with everyone’s gaze fixed on Han Muye and the light curtain before him, as well as the swords in his possession.

Han Muye raised his hand, the light curtain vanished, and the sword floated in front of him.

“This sword is priced at five hundred Great Pantheon Stones.”

Five hundred?

That cheap?

This price stunned everyone once again.

A sword of this caliber, containing inheritance and being of excellent quality among Dao Artifacts, was only five hundred Great Pantheon Stones?

Was there a conspiracy behind this?

“Sect Master, for a sword that includes inheritance and is yet a Dao Artifact, is it really priced at five hundred Great Pantheon Stones?” a black-robed elder standing not far in front of Han Muye couldn’t help but speak out.

He was a master of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect and his cultivation resided within the Dao-Breaking Boundary.

For someone of Dao-Breaking cultivation, five hundred Great Pantheon Stones was not an unaffordable sum.

“This sword should be worth over two thousand Great Pantheon Stones, but due to potential complications that the inheritance might bring, I’ve set the price at five hundred Great Pantheon Stones,” Han Muye spoke calmly, explaining to the crowd around him.

So that was it.

The inheritance of the Wanhua Sword Sect was connected with the Mingtang Sword Sect, and whoever bought this sword could potentially attract the scrutiny of the Mingtang Sword Sect.

Contending with a powerful Sword Sect was not a minor risk.

Upon hearing Han Muye’s words, a hesitant look emerged on the faces of the crowd at the mountain gate.

While it was easy to spend five hundred Great Pantheon Stones, offending a big sect might not be worth it.

“To ensure the safety of all those who wish to purchase swords from the Sword Nurturing Hut, our All-Encompassing Sword Sect will open up lodgings thirty miles outside the mountain gate.”

“Within this range, for the next three years, all security and safety shall be the responsibility of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect,”

the voice of Han Muye echoed once more before the mountain gate.

At that moment, outside the mountain gate, there was nothing but the howling wind.

He really is determined to sell off the swords from the Sword Nurturing Hut!

“Sect Master Han, I’ll buy that sword,”

a voice rang out from afar.

A large man clad in heavy black armor swiftly approached.

Han Muye’s face broke into a smile; he then tossed the three-foot-long sword forward and turned to leave.

…

In half a month’s time, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had sold a total of twenty-three three-foot-long swords.

Among these were swords unknown to the world, as well as fine swords with tremendous legacies behind them.

The price of these swords varied, some fetching as high as three thousand Great Pantheon Stones after fierce competition amongst the powerhouses, while others went for a mere hundred, with decent inheritances included.

With the sale of the twenty-three swords, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had not only collected five thousand Great Pantheon Stones but also earned an additional two thousand plus.

Of course, the act of selling their foundation had the whole sect deeply worried.

Only the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak were not concerned.

As for Han Muye, he proceeded to unravel the legacies within the various swords.

“Dong——”

“Dong——”

“Dong——”

The distant toll of a bell rose, as figures soared into the sky, shimmering with Flowing Light.

From afar, the gazes of powerhouses lifted.

“They’re coming!”

“A formidable enemy is on the attack!”

Above the distant sky, three figures ascended, employing the Flying Sword Technique.

“He Jiyang, He Mingyang, and He Zhengyang of the Mingtian Sword Sect have come to visit the All-Encompassing Sword Sect——”

A long cry resonated, stirring the surrounding heaven and earth with its vibrations.

The glistening sword light from three swords merged into a single, thirty-foot sword light, slashing toward All-Encompassing Peak.

This visit was heralded by a direct attack with their swords.

“It’s the Three Elders of the He family from the Mingtian Sword Sect.”

“All three are in the Half-Step Dao Extinguishing Realm and are the inheritors of the sect’s mantle.”

“This is going to be interesting, only Xia Mingtang himself might stand a chance to hold them off.”

“Not necessarily, it’s said that Han Muye also has considerable strength.”

Whispers spread, as all eyes fixed on the sword light cutting towards the mountain gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

If this sword light were to strike true, it would be a challenge to the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

If the All-Encompassing Sword Sect allowed this sword light to land, it would be seen as incompetence.

“Stop them,”

someone shouted in midair.

Figures with sword lights tried to block that thirty-foot sword.

Yet no matter who it was, everyone was repelled before that thirty-foot-long sword.

In the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, not a single person could pause that sword by even the briefest moment.

The sword light crashed down, only thirty feet away from the mountain gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

It seemed as though the gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect would be shattered by one stroke of a sword.

The onlookers’ eyes shone eagerly.

If the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had so little strength, how could they dare offer protection to those who bought the swords?

If the All-Encompassing Sword Sect was really that weak, then the swords in the Sword Nurturing Hut were not safe at all!

That thirty-foot sword light halted three feet above the gate of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect and slowly dissipated into nothingness.

The three elders from the Mingtian Sword Sect stood far away, faces pale and bodies trembling.

“The three of you, the Sect Master invites you to meet at the Sword Nurturing Hut,”

a faint voice rose not far behind them.

In the voice was a trace of killing intent that could not be dispelled.

This killing intent sent shivers down the spines of the three Dao Realm powerhouses.

Su Juesheng slowly sheathed his Bright Longsword.

Within three feet, he could cut down three Dao Extinguishing adversaries.

Especially when the ones in front of him were merely three at Half-Step Dao Breaking.

Merely.
