Chapter 2386
Han Sen was very curious about that sword light rain . Although people said King Bai had destroyed the sword light, Han Sen didn’t think the reality of what had happened was quite that simple .
Han Sen summoned the Siren Virgin so that she could take a look at the sword light rain . He also told her about the sword light that had appeared atop Rot Bone Mountain’s peak . He didn’t reveal that he was the one who had destroyed the knoll atop that mountain, however .
When the Siren Virgin heard what he had to say, she looked startled . She silently turned to observe the sword light rain .
“Do you know what this sword light is?” Han Sen asked with a frown . The Siren Virgin had been silent for a long, thoughtful minute .
Then she looked back at him and said, “Mad Sword . For a long time, even talking about him was considered taboo among the Extreme King . He wasn’t one of the Extreme King’s nobility, and he didn’t even have a king body . But his sword skills were beyond talented . He was just a normal swordsman, and yet, he became deified . He beat countless elites of the Extreme King . ”
“I know that,” Han Sen said .
“Have you wondered about why a scary elite like this was never really made famous outside of the Extreme King?” the Siren Virgin asked .
“I have given that some thought, and I think it is pretty weird . It doesn’t really make any sense . My best guess is that the Extreme King trapped him here . He was never allowed to go beyond the borders of the Extreme King’s domain,” Han Sen said .
The Siren Virgin shook her head . “You have guessed half of it correctly . Mad Sword never left the Extreme King . He actually was famous among outside races, but they knew him by a different name . ”
“You mean, Mad Sword used an alias in his exploits across the universe? Why would he do such a thing?” Han Sen asked with curiosity .
The Siren Virgin shook her head . “I don’t know . I investigated Mad Sword, but I only learned that he did something that made the Extreme King despise him . Many people in the Extreme King severely dislike him . ”
After that, the Siren Virgin looked at the sword light rain like she was looking out to sea . She said, “If I am correct, it’s possible that Mad Sword isn’t completely dead . This sword light rain might suggest that he may be reborn . ”
“You mean, Mad Sword was trapped in the “Pride and bones are made” stone? That sword light was Mad Sword himself?” Han Sen asked, raising an eyebrow .
“It was probably just his will . I bet King Bai has a pretty nasty headache right about now . If that guy is reborn, the Extreme King will descend into chaos . That’s good . The more chaos, the more benefits you and I can reap,” the Siren Virgin said . She ended with a laugh .
“If Mad Sword only left his will behind, then he might have decided to escape the region entirely once he was freed . That wouldn’t shake up the Extreme King society very much at all,” Han Sen said, disagreeing with the Siren Virgin .
The Siren Virgin shook her head . “Why would he run? Right now, here in the realm of the Extreme King, the sword light is everywhere . All he needs to do is attach to some creature here and possess it . Any effort the Extreme King make to find him will probably turn out to be impossible . There is no need for him to run . ”
Upon hearing the Siren Virgin say this, Han Sen felt his heart jump . After a long moment, he asked, “Might Mad Sword seek to choose me?”
“There are so many people in the Extreme King . Mad Sword doesn’t require someone talented, so there’s no reason for him to go after a prince . You think too much,” the Siren Virgin said .
Despite her reassurance, Han Sen did not feel safe . It made him worry quite a bit .
Luckily, when the sword light rain stopped, nothing weird had occurred in Planet Water Zone . However, Han Sen was paranoid for the duration of the rain .
Due to the sword light rain, the next part of the exam was delayed seven days . The passion for the event had slowly withered away . Perhaps it was due to the sword light rain incident, but the Extreme King’s supervisors weren’t very focused on the exams . And although the sword light rain had stopped, the exams remained on pause .
The whole atmosphere of King’s Kingdom was tense . The realm was placed on lockdown, and even Han Sen’s Planet Water Zone was investigated by a number of different departments .
The workers might not have known what they were looking for, but Han Sen figured that the Extreme King’s supervisor was still searching for Mad Sword’s will .
“What a scary guy . He only had his will left, but even so, its reappearance has caused this much of a ruckus . I could die a happy man if I was that influential . ” Han Sen sighed after sending away a few more officers .
Han Sen didn’t travel anywhere . He focused on leveling up his Dongxuan Sutra . He wanted to get that to King class as soon as possible .
Although Jadeskin and the Blood-Pulse Sutra were easier for him to level up, Han Sen still wanted the Dongxuan Sutra to be leveled up first . Han Sen sensed that a crisis was near, and the Dongxuan Sutra was the skill he was most familiar with . It was something he could rely on .
The Dongxuan Sutra’s power was irreplaceable . No other geno art could match its offensive capabilities . In a proper fight, Han Sen could fight without Jadeskin and the Blood-Pulse Sutra, and even The Story of Genes . Doing so never really affected Han Sen’s fighting power .
But without the Dongxuan Sutra, Han Sen’s fighting power was noticeably decreased .
The other three geno arts were plenty strong, but the Dongxuan Sutra was the most compatible with who Han Sen was as a person . It matched his personality . That was the primary reason that Han Sen always fell back on the Dongxuan Sutra . It was simply comfortable .
A crisis was brewing, and he had promised aid to Ning Yue, as well . He needed to gain more power, and he needed to do so quickly . The most straightforward way to achieve this was to take the Dongxuan Sutra to King class .
Han Sen practiced in the training room for an entire month, using the Dongxuan Sutra the entire time . His whole body felt like part of a machine .
Yes, it was a machine .
From Han Sen’s point of view, the Dongxuan body made the entire universe seem like one giant machine . Grass, forests, stone, water, bugs, fish; they were all gears inside this machine .
Each cogwheel was a different size and shape, but they all fit together . They all connected to each other . When one cog spun, it spun the cog next to it . And that new one that spun would spin the next cog, and so on .
Han Sen was just a single piece amidst an unfathomably vast machine . With the power of the Dongxuan Sutra, however, Han Sen had a wider view of the cogs and how each one related to the others .
Using the geno art felt amazing . Two objects in the real world might have no visible connection, but Han Sen could see the power that was transferred between them . The only thing Han Sen didn’t know was exactly how he could affect those relationships .
Han Sen understood that if he was to alter the power-exchange of the cogs, he would require King area powers .
Every King area affected the way the cogs were spun . A King area could make them go faster or slower, or even spin in reverse . All the rules of nearby cogwheels were affected, creating special area pockets .
Han Sen had been trying to push his own cogwheel and alter the way it spun, but he couldn’t get it to work . He couldn’t affect the mechanism that controlled the entire universe, and thereby create a new King area .
