Chapter 344: Chapter 275: Yellow Stone Mountain, Land of Sword Relics_3
Even with ample time, it was unrealistic to investigate all the Star Devices one by one. So, Su Yuan decided to head to the depths of the Secret Realm first.
But before that, it was a good time to test the process of subduing a Star Device…
After a brief thought, Su Yuan walked to the orange-red Earth Core Flame Blade and reached out to grasp it.
“Come, let me see what kind of ‘Artifact Holder’ you are.”
As Su Yuan held the Earth Core Flame Blade, the originally dormant long saber suddenly emitted a clear sound and started to tremble in resistance. Simultaneously, a circle of ink-black energy spread out from beneath the long saber, quickly enveloping Su Yuan.
In a blink of an eye, Su Yuan found himself in a black space, which was the “Sword Heart Space” created by the Secret Realm.
In front of him appeared a middle-aged man with red eyebrows, dressed in a black and red robe. The Earth Core Flame Blade, which was previously lying on the ground, was now in his hand.
This was the Artifact Holder!
To gain the acknowledgment of a Star Device, the most direct way was to prove oneself stronger than its original Imperial Master!
Thus, in the Land of Sword Relics, there were Artifact Holders.
Artifact Holders were naturally the original Imperial Masters who used these Star Devices.
However, most of the Imperial Masters in the Land of Sword Relics were figures from ancient times, making it impossible to summon them.
So these “Artifact Holders” were reconstructed in the Sword Heart Space based on the Star Device’s own “memories.”
“Gold Early Stage.”
Just at a glance, Su Yuan saw through the middle-aged man’s realm. He flipped his hand and took out the Phoenix Perch Saber, intending to see how the opponent would act.
Soon, the middle-aged man moved. With a shake of his red robe, fierce flames surged up like a blazing sun.
The Earth Core Flame Blade in his hand seemed to remember the scenes of charging into battle with its Imperial Master. A bright red fire line extended from the hilt to the blade’s edge.
The flames grew stronger, unleashing their full power!
The middle-aged man pressed down on the blade and slightly bent his knees.
“Fire Saber Sect’s Secret Sword… Fire Flash!”
The flames burning on the middle-aged man suddenly restrained, and the originally black space grew even darker. Only the flames on the Earth Core Flame Blade became brighter!
A flash of red fire streaked across the black space. In an instant, the middle-aged man had already appeared behind Su Yuan!
“Draw Saber Skill, huh?” After a moment of silence, Su Yuan slowly sheathed his Phoenix Perch Saber. “The move is good, but your strength is somewhat lacking.”
As soon as his words fell, a line of blood spurted from the middle-aged man behind him, and he collapsed straight to the ground.
Quickly, the Sword Heart Space retracted like ink, and Su Yuan’s vision brightened as he returned to the outside world.
By now, the Earth Core Flame Blade in Su Yuan’s hand had stopped trembling and no longer resisted.
Su Yuan could feel that as long as he drew this saber, it would be at his command.
Weapons were born for killing. This was the fundamental meaning of their existence. Hence, following a strong warrior was naturally something that a Divine Weapon yearned for.
Su Yuan did not take the Star Device with him but released his grip and stood up.
“I have experienced the way to acquire a Star Device. Now, let’s head directly to the depths of the Secret Realm. No matter what happens in the end, I’ll secure this top-grade Star Artifact first…”
Su Yuan glanced at the Pure Qi Guide on the back of his hand, pointing to the depths of the Secret Realm. After a brief thought, he walked straight ahead.
The Earth Core Flame Sword let out a few soft hums and then fell silent once more…
