Starting My Cultivation With Immortality - Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Divine Sword Cutting Sky

Yun Su carefully reached out and grabbed the ordinary-looking ancient sword. The hilt was one with the sword and there was no guard. When he touched the hilt, he felt a chaotic aura. It was identical to the aura he felt in the Chaotic World.

However, it was not as terrifying. It was like a sleeping ferocious beast. It was filled with great horror but it was not unleashed.

When he was travelling the Great Void, Yun Su first heard a loud sound cutting through the chaos in that mysterious chaotic world. Then, he witnessed the enlightenment he obtained from the Clear and Turbid Qi. By chance, he reached some level of comprehension of this divine sword. He knew how to control it and how to attack the enemy. He did not even need to refine it to communicate with it.

This sword had just been born but it was a divine item. Its main body had once broken through Chaos and was used by the mysterious giant to create. After coming to this world, it immediately felt the rules of heaven and earth that were different from Chaos.

In Yun Su’s opinion, this was like a tiger descending a mountain and entering a flock of sheep by mistake. Knowing that this world had its own rules, it might as well choose the path of growth of a divine object. At that moment, it was like a baby that could slowly grow in the future.

Even so, it was still a divine object. A sleeping tiger was still the king of beasts.

The sword was connected to the human heart and was extremely spiritual. It was strange and blunt but one could not sense the existence of a sword spirit. Instead, the entire sword seemed to be alive.

His grip loosened and the ancient sword naturally floated in front of him.

The Ancient Sword was very curious about this world. It swam around the house like a naughty fish. When it saw that there was a gap in the window, it flew out of the room with a whoosh and flew up and down the courtyard. It was extremely curious about everything. It even flew past the corridor and kitchen carefully.

In the next moment, it flew into the air like a flying immortal bird or a spiritual fish playing with water. Sometimes it looked at the Mystic Moon in the sky and sometimes it stared at the countless stars on the other side of the starry sky in a daze. It didn’t have enough fun, so it flew higher and sized up this colorful world from above.

It had never seen mountains, rivers, houses, fields, cities, buildings, and all kinds of creatures.

It saw the entire Yuyang City, the Yao Mountain, the river outside the city, and the living beings all over the city.

Yun Su smiled faintly and was somewhat gratified. Although that giant had failed, it at least left something behind. He saw how lively it would be if the world was successfully created.

It took a full hour for the ancient sword to slowly calm down. It swam back and carefully approached Yun Su’s right hand.

“What you saw, I saw too. What I’ve seen, I’ll show you slowly in the future. The path of cultivation, we’ll walk slowly together. There will definitely be many different beautiful sceneries.”

Yun Su muttered to himself. He wondered if the giant had seen the scene after creation. Was he a god from some great world, or was he a native of the Chaos Race? Perhaps there would never be an answer.

However, for this sword, being born from death in this large and colorful world was a form of success in another sense.

The ancient sword swung slightly as if nodding in affection, before subsiding in its movements.

Yun Su pondered for a moment but did not name it. He activated his Dharmic powers slightly and a strange suction force came. The Dharmic powers in his body were swept away, and even the sea of consciousness surged. Instantly, a fifth of it was gone. Only then did the ancient sword surge with a fatal sword qi.

The sword qi condensed and did not dissipate. It gathered and did not release. It looked harmless but Yun Su could sense the shocking sword move hidden inside. Once it was used, it would be earth-shattering. At that moment, the sword qi was restrained, and no one outside the house could sense anything unusual.

With this Edgeless Divine Sword, any existences Yun Su met along the path of cultivation would have to play nice, be it the thousand-year-old female ghost from last time or even a ghost that was ten-thousand-year-old.

The sword was good but it was also a divine sword. No mortal title was worthy of its origins.

If one were to only play with it, it was as light as a feather.

If he wanted to use the sword to kill, Yun Su looked forward to seeing what level of an opponent would be able to resist his Soul Formation realm. Moreover, it would be a fully-powered sword that far exceeded its peers.

The Divine Sword was psychic. Even without activating it, it could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the nameless killing intent that floated everywhere in this world.

Looking at the divine sword obediently hovering in front of him, Yun Su thought that it was still missing a scabbard.

The origin of this sword was too terrifying. Ordinary living beings, be it demons, demons, gods, or devils, might be wiped out just by looking at it, let alone being struck by it. This was the case unless their realm was extremely high.

As a cultivator who had just stepped onto the path of cultivation, he did not have any natural treasures on hand, and even if he did, it would be difficult for him to match its background. After thinking about it, he decided to ask for the Divine Sword’s opinion.

“Your background is extraordinary. Even if you were to be hidden, you are not something that ordinary living beings can look at directly. However, I know your background, and I don’t know if you like an ordinary scabbard. What do you think?”

Yun Su communicated with the divine sword and reached out to wipe it. An image appeared in front of him. There were all kinds of scabbards and materials.

The Divine Sword nodded and flew along the crack into the courtyard. A strange fluctuation came and a yellow light appeared on the ground. A trace of green flew out of the withered tree, and a wave of sparkling water shot out from the large pool. A wisp of ethereal fire and a ball of essence silently condensed in the air. A trace of the power of the stars descended from the sky.

The power of the five elements gathered and the power of the stars in the sky joined in. It melted into the sword and grew a scabbard at a visible speed.

The scabbard was ordinary and the divine sword was hidden inside without a sound. It happened to be in line with the saying that the divine sword was only sharp if one had good cultivation.

“Good!”

The divine sword flew back into the house and landed in front of Yun Su. It trembled slightly, happy to have the scabbard. Then it leaned over and rubbed against Yun Su’s hand affectionately as if it was still missing something. Their minds connected and there was a hint of longing and anticipation.

That’s right. In the visualization, he saw that many of the sheaths were either engraved with patterns or words, so it came to ask for help.

Yun Su smiled faintly and grabbed the sword with his left hand. After pondering for a moment, he closed his eyes.

In the chaotic nothingness, the giant created.

Yun Su tried to capture the moment when the giant cut through the chaos. His eyes were closed and his right finger tried to carve a word on the scabbard like it was a sword.

Yun Su remembered the scene of the giant creating very clearly. It was not only branded on his soul but also recorded down on its origin power.

Dharmic powers surged out of his entire body. A vast amount of spiritual power finally condensed on his finger and he touched the sword to write.

The entire process was extremely slow. There was a mysterious and indescribable force blocking the movement of the finger. Yun Su kept trying to visualize the scene of creation and the trace of charm. He was not in a hurry to engrave it but he wanted to perfect that mysterious charm as much as possible with the first stroke.

Two hours, four hours, until six hours later.

Whoosh. The finger finally moved.

Yun Su spent a full six hours visualizing a charm that could be used to write. Almost in one breath, the word “cut” appeared on the scabbard.

A chaotic aura rose from the word and divine light appeared.

He wasn’t finished. The second word had two strokes.

Just as the third stroke was about to land, a great horror hit him. Yun Su felt a sharp pain in his body and a sweet taste in his throat. He spat out a mouthful of blood. The word ‘Heaven’ that had been on the third stroke was not completed. Even the two strokes had turned to dust.

“Unfortunately, I did my best.”

Yun Su said with some regret but the divine sword emitted a ball of light. It floated two feet back and nodded at Yun Su three times in the air.

Could it be that when this little fellow flew into the air to play just now, he saw someone bowing and did so as well?

Yun Su’s first thought was to engrave the word “Creation”. Unfortunately, no matter what, he could not engrave the word. When she visualized the wisp of divine true intent, he failed no less than ten thousand times. In the end, he was extremely lucky to carve the word “Cut”.

There was a sword that had once cut through the sky.

The Sky Cutting Sword had its name and was no longer a Nameless Sword.
