Chapter 1826
Jared was bewildered at his inability to use his spiritual energy. He could only grit his teeth and defend
himself against the waves of sword energy with his physical body.
The Dragonslayer Sword, on the other hand, was fervently absorbing the sword energy in the pillar of
light to protect its master.
It vibrated vigorously, and the green glow that enveloped the sword previously began to change.
Still, they seemed to be in a bottomless pool of sword energy.
Wounds began appearing on Jared's body as he failed to deflect the waves of sword energy.
Just then, the Dragonslayer Sword emitted a loud ringing noise as though on the verge of exploding.
Jared paid no heed to the stinging wounds on his body and tightened his grip on the sword. He sensed
a turmoil of spiritual energy within the Dragonslayer Sword.
A blinding flash later, the suffocating sword energy and light pillar vanished abruptly.

He tried to use his spiritual energy to slow down his fall, but it seemed to be sealed.
Jared braced himself for a nasty fall. Right before his body hit the ground, the Dragonslayer Sword took
on a mind of its own. It broke fl ee from liis grasp and positioned itself beneath liis feet.
He wobbled a few times but eventually caught his balance.
The Dragonslayer Sword slowly descended to the ground, carrying Jared safely with it. Jared's eyes lit
up with delight.
At this rate, he would be able to fly on liis sword soon. The tomb of swords was turning out to be a
great place to beef up liis Dragonslayer Sword.
Jared made a soft landing on the ground. Instead of checking on liis wounds, he hugged liis
Dragonslayer Sword gratefully while planting kisses on it. He was starting to realize the sword was far
more impressive than he had ever imagined.
How invincible would this Dragonslayer Sword be once it absorbed the sword spirit of the demonic
sword?
Jared glanced at liis surroundings and noticed the three swords on the ground were gone. He waited
around instead of leaving. Shouldn't another old person appear now that the arcane array is broken?
Tme to liis expectations, a beam of light flashed before him, revealing an elderly, white-haired, sword-
wielding man.
The sword was green from hilt to tip and emanated a faint glow.
The elderly man croaked, “You are the first person to appear before me in hundreds of years, and
perhaps you are the destined one to fulfill our centuries-old wish.”
After he spoke, his green sword shone brightly. A spark of light about the size of a firefly emerged from
the sword and flew toward Jared's Dragonslayer Sword. It was rapidly absorbed.
The elderly man continued, “The reappearance of that ancient spiritual sword must be rooted in
destiny. I suppose this is our way of atoning for our sins...”
He trailed off and smiled before fading away.

Jared was utterly perplexed. Who was that elderly man? Why does he need to atone for liis sins?
Still, he had no time to mull over those questions. If I don't return soon. Flaxseed will leave without me.
And if he tells Lizbeth and the gilds that I died in the tomb of swords, who knows what crazy things
they'll get up to!
That thought spurred Jared to hurry ahead.
The sword energy around him only intensified. Jared activated liis Golem Body. Under normal
circumstances, it would have crumbled amid the unrelenting waves of sword energy.
Thankfully, liis Dragonslayer Sword continuously absorbed the excessive sword energy, allowing him to
progress, albeit at a painfully slow rate.
Without the Dragonslayer Sword, he would surely be grounded to the spot.
After walking for some time, Jared came upon a sword embedded in a huge boulder.
He surveyed his surrounding before cautiously approaching the sword.
Experience told him a sword marionette would materialize, and it would be the strongest of all the
marionettes he had encountered thus far.
