Chapter 1473: Chapter 498: Subduing the Valkyrie! (Bonus Chapter for Antz, the Alliance Hierarch!)_2
"Because the death of numerous divine beings has turned this area of a thousand miles into a no-man’s land."
"Any life below the legendary level that sets foot there will be obliterated in an instant."
"Even someone like me, a legend, can’t last long in there."
Sarah, Isabell, and the others beside them all looked rather serious.
They had existed on the continent for so many years and had never heard of such a dangerous place.
But clearly, what the Sword Saint’s shadow said is probably true.
However, Cao Xing noticed one sentence: there are many legendary weapons and fragments of demigod artifacts there!
His eyes lit up instantly!
He eagerly asked, "Can you tell me where that Land of Divine Fall is?"
The Sword Saint’s shadow seemed to know he would ask this and slowly shook his head, saying, "It’s a special region with no specific coordinates."
"However, if you really want to explore it, you can ask the Valkyrie remains beside you."
"She can lead you to the location of the Land of Fallen Gods."
"Of course, remember one thing."
"Do not step into that area without legendary strength."
Cao Xing nodded solemnly.
He didn’t want to court death.
After all, even the Sword Saint died after entering that area. If it were them, they would probably die instantly.
At this moment, the Sword Saint’s shadow slowly spoke again.
"You, Otherworldly Lord, have already obtained the Valkyrie’s remains."
"Now I need you to bring my inheritor in."
"This little one, like you, is also an Otherworldly Lord. I noticed him when he first stepped into the Sword Tomb."
"He has commendable sword dao accomplishments, a promising candidate for inheritance."
Cao Xing knew he was referring to Wei Jianyi.
However, he was currently waiting outside the passageway with Bai Zhi and Cheng Lu.
The battle inside was too intense, without any news from Cao Xing, they didn’t dare to come in.
Yet Cao Xing didn’t act immediately but looked at the Sword Saint’s shadow before him.
He pondered, wondering if he could get more benefits.
He cupped his hands and said respectfully.
"Dear Sword Saint senior, this inheritance may not suit a mage like me."
"However, there are many sword-wielding talents in my territory."
"Among them, there are even those who have created their own swordsmanship, but due to lack of guidance from a master, they have not progressed further."
"You are the strongest Sword Saint I’ve encountered, could you provide some guidance?"
"So that these talents in my territory do not let their talent go to waste..."
Cao Xing first flattered him, then showed a look of regret.
Hearing this, even Sarah and the others gave Cao Xing a strange look.
After all, even they knew their Lord had picked up a massive bargain with the Valkyrie remains.
Yet he continued to seek more benefits.
However, Cao Xing had his own plans.
This Sword Saint shadow was obviously the last remnant of the Nameless Sword Saint’s consciousness.
In other words, once he passed on the inheritance to Wei Jianyi, he would completely disappear from this world.
So Cao Xing could use this opportunity to get more benefits.
The Sword Saint’s shadow contemplated after hearing him, then looked at him thoughtfully.
However, he wasn’t angry but smiled faintly and said,
"There’s nothing left in the inheritance."
"But... I do have a manual I recorded myself."
"And a soul I acquired recently."
"Since there are so many sword-wielding talents in your territory, I’ll give them both to you."
With that, the Sword Saint’s shadow beckoned.
Two items flew toward him.
Cao Xing quickly reached out to catch them.
[Acquired: Commander Soul of the Soul Taker *1]
[Acquired: Nameless Sword Saint Manual (Orange) *1]
...
Gazing at the items in his hand, Cao Xing was overjoyed.
Clearly, the gains from the Sword Saint inheritance were terrifying enough!
Cao Xing looked at the other party with excitement.
The Sword Saint’s shadow noticed his gaze and seemed to misunderstand, hurriedly saying, "My young friend, now I truly have nothing more to give you."
Cao Xing shook his head with a smile and said, "You misunderstand, Sword Saint senior. I’m merely expressing my gratitude for your generosity."
"Believe me, I will ensure your manual is passed down and glorified in my territory!"
The Sword Saint’s shadow was silent for a moment, then said.
"If that’s the case... then I can die without regrets."
"I trust, with your abilities, you can glorify the combat skills recorded in my manual."
"Thank you, my young friend!"
Cao Xing nodded slightly, then said no more.
He led Sarah and the others toward the passage behind them.
And the Valkyrie known as Marlenina followed closely beside Cao Xing.
In her mind, Cao Xing was the one who gave her life.
So she ranked his life as a top priority for protection.
Cao Xing paused in the passage, looking at Marlenina beside him.
The Valkyrie’s appearance was too conspicuous.
Just now, Bai Zhi and Cheng Lu had seen her appear.
Cao Xing was thinking to use her as a trump card.
So he needed to hide her away and not expose her easily.
"The Valkyrie remains are in a lifeless state."
"In other words, I can store her in the Necrotic Spirit Bag, right?"
Thinking about this, he decided to give it a try.
Thus, Cao Xing took out the [Necrotic Spirit Bag] from his backpack.
