Chapter 35: Powerful Attributes and Strength Integration
"Senior, thank you very much." Johnnie said with a hint of sadness as he looked at the feeble old man.
The old man shook his head and said, "You've earned all of this. I hope you won't go back on your word."
"Senior, don't worry. I, Johnnie, always keep my promises. I will protect the Universe Continent, and the Sword Immortal Sect will surely thrive in my hands!" His confident expression wasn't just empty talk. In this life, he was determined to keep the foreign races at bay from the Universe Continent.
Moreover, he truly had a plan to revive the Sword Immortal Sect. He already had the perfect candidates in mind—the Ancient Martial Arts Families on Earth.
"Kid, I believe in you." the old man said weakly, continuing, "Now that you've received the Sword Immortal inheritance, you're the master of this place. However, you can only enter when you advance in stage. Before we part, I'll give you another opportunity. If I'm not mistaken, you should be practicing the Cosmic Eclipse Blade."
"Cosmic Eclipse Blade?" Johnnie asked in confusion. "Senior, I'm practicing the Great Transformation Sword Technique."
"No." the old man shook his head. "It is the Cosmic Eclipse Blade. What you have is just an incomplete version. The full version is the Cosmic Eclipse Blade, created three thousand years ago by the greatest master of The Way of the Sword on the Universe Continent after comprehending the laws of the heavens. The other half should be in the hands of a certain god. If you can obtain it, your strength will receive another huge boost."
Johnnie was taken aback and asked, "Senior, which god has it?"
"I don't know. You'll have to find out for yourself. Kid, you're still too weak right now, and your enemies are powerful, not just the gods. Try not to reveal your identity and develop in secret..." The old man gave earnest advice. His voice faded away, and his figure became transparent before disappearing completely.
"Senior!" Johnnie felt a pang of grief. If he hadn't injured the old man, he wouldn't have dissipated so quickly.
"Senior, I had no choice. Given a second chance at life, I must protect everything. But rest assured, I, Johnnie, will keep my word and create a brand - new world for you!" He bowed deeply. With a surge of spatial energy, he was teleported away.
