The Tale of the Devil Sword

Chapter 7: Towards the cave-3

It was early in the morning. The sun slowly rose in the zahrah domain. The zahrah domain was located on the edge of the continent. The only way to enter this domain was from north since the other three sides were surrounded by water.

(Author note: Imagine the southern region of the Indian map.)

It was said that before any human resided in this region the entire domain used to be full of different types of flowers.

The most interesting thing was that all types of flowers grew here. Be it a legendary flower like windflower- the red anemone or simple roses all grew up together.

It was based on this that xia changhe's ancestor created a kingdom with the concept of equality. Though that concept did not even last a decade, the ancestor still created the first power of the domain and established it's might here.

(Interesting fact: zahrah is a word of Arabic origin which means Flower)

There was nothing special about the day. Common people were doing their daily work. Cultivators were either cultivating or fighting.

Same day, same work, same life.

That was until the sky suddenly darkened. A music started reverberating all over the domain.

The music seemed heavenly but at the same time demonic. It calmed their mind but at the same time agitated their mind.

Many weaker males felt they were lying on the things of a heavenly angel while their body was getting burnt.

Many weaker females felt they were getting cuddled by a heavenly angel while their body was getting burnt.

The elemental energy, qi and mana in the air started getting sucked away towards the music.

Suddenly the sky's colour changed. From dark to bright red, from bright red to purple eventually settling for an eerie grey color.

The energy circulating in the air was new for them but it was addictive.

Many cultivators started breaking through their bottlenecks. Many ill mortals started getting cured.

When all of this was happening suddenly everything became quiet. The grey sky became greyer. Then energy in the air became heavier.

BOOOOOOOOM

A noise loud enough struck to be heard by the entire domain. The sound of the noise came from the southern direction.

All the powerhouses of the zahrah domain looked towards the direction of the sound. Some were scared, some were plain curious and the rest showed greed.

Scared because of the unknown power

Curiosity because of the possible entertainment in their daily boring lives.

Greed because of the possibility of a treasure.

Everyone concluded that either it was an inheritance ground appearing from a different space or a high level treasure was formed.

No one would be stupid enough to think some one was cultivating and broke through because even though they were proud of their domain they were not stupid enough to believe that the energy in this domain was concentrated enough to help breakthrough of such a powerhouse.

And it was at this time the grey sky turned normal. The energy absorbed in the direction was miraculously replenished. And the mysterious energy which was helping cultivators break through and mortals cure also vanished as if it never appeared.

Everyone felt a sense of loss at this point. It not only helped them but it was also addictive. Only the powerhouses were strong enough not to get addicted.

It was only for a moment so the affect was not drastic. If Kylo was here he would have recognised the energy albeit with little difficulty as devil qi.

And it was not just any normal devil qi. The devil qi was refined qi that Kylo stored in his own space dimension.

How could Kylo recognise this was his energy? Simple it contains traces of his cultivation technique. This was not just any technique, he had obtained this from his odachi. How could he be an emperor with just a normal technique?

Why would he face difficulty then? Because this energy contained traces of another technique similar yet different and it had mixture of primordial energy, the same as the cave.

When the phenomenon was over every high level powerhouses started flying towards the source.

*****

When everyone just remembered what happened an hour back they fell silent again.

This time because they were contemplating their future moves according to various situations they drew in their mind.

And just then the group stopped.

"So is this the place of such a heaven defying phenomenon?"
