Chapter 29 Sword Immortal Lin Ye
Chapter 29 Sword Immortal Lin Ye
The sword sheath didn't rest for long because Lin Ye gave it the "healing medicine" directly.
Feeling his injuries improve dramatically, Dujianqiao couldn't help but be amazed by the technology of the modern era.
After recovering, the single sword sheath rose into the air and floated up again, and the sword began to slowly rotate.
This time, it didn't disappoint. Instead, it demonstrated some amplification and transformation skills to Lin Ye: metallic sound, body lightening, shadow clone, and even "Iron Wall" at the end, which greatly satisfied Lin Ye.
Once the amplification was complete, a silver-white sword light suddenly shone from him, and his figure flashed through the air like lightning, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
During this process, the luster on the scabbard constantly changed, sometimes appearing as silver-white, representing the steel element, and sometimes as jet black, representing the dark element.
But each afterimage was a sharp slash, accompanied by the sound of trees tearing and falling, and the air itself was torn apart with a faint whistling sound.
The skills mastered by the single-edged sword sheath were also largely displayed: impact, combo slashes, shadow ambush, swallow return, cleave, and sneak attack on vital points...
Although Lin Ye guessed that the single sword sheath was the embodiment of the soul of an ancient warrior, he was still shocked by the natural sword intent it displayed when he saw it perform these moves. It was clearly a performance by a master swordsman.
After finishing a combo, sheathed her sword and stood back in front of Lin Ye, a hint of smugness in her voice:
"What do you think, Brother Lin?"
"Awesome."
"Awesome... awesome? What kind of praise is that?"
"It means you're really amazing. The moves you just used were like the legendary state of perfect harmony between man and sword. You truly deserve the title of 'Sword Master'!"
"Brother Lin has a good eye. I practiced swordsmanship for decades during my lifetime, and this swordsmanship has been engraved in my soul. When I use the moves, there is naturally a sense of unity between man and sword."
Lin Ye listened, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Hey~, right! Brother Jian, have you ever heard of the legends of sword immortals?"
"Sword Immortal? What's that?"
"It's an incredibly powerful combination, one person, one sword, traversing the world, invincible!"
The sword sheath, its eyes gleaming with excitement, exclaimed, "So powerful! How can I possibly withstand it!"
"A sword immortal can fly and hide; when activated, it can break all spells; when escaping, no one can match it. In short—let me fly over you first!"
The sword sheath remained silent for three seconds before carefully speaking, "Brother Lin, although I can fly, I am, after all, a sword, and my size is limited. I'm afraid..."
"We should at least give it a try!"
"Then... let's give it a try! But Brother Lin, you must be careful. If anything goes wrong, jump down immediately."
The sword sheath was less than a meter long. Lin Ye lifted one foot and carefully stepped on the sword.
The blade of the single-scabbard dipped slightly, but quickly stabilized, and Lin Ye stepped onto the other one.
He looked down at the height of the ground, which was only half a meter above the ground, and a strange sense of excitement welled up inside him.
"Can we fly higher?" he asked.
The single sword sheath remained silent for a moment, then slowly rose, one meter, two meters, three meters.
Lin Ye stood on the sword, arms outstretched for balance, feeling the wind blowing in his face.
"It really works! Let's try moving it again!"
The sword sheath began to move, and Lin Ye's posture became somewhat unsteady.
Lin Ye took a deep breath and immediately activated the necromancer pact between himself and the sword sheath. His mind and spirit instantly became perfectly aligned with the sword sheath, and he even knew which direction it would tilt in next. The sword sheath knew his intentions without Lin Ye having to say a word.
This is the beauty of contracts; it's impossible for ordinary people and Pokémon to achieve this level of synchronization.
But with the soul contract, they seem to share a part of their senses and can predict each other's actions.
Lin Ye opened his eyes and tried to lean forward slightly, while the single sword sheath floated forward at the same time.
Lin Ye leaned back again, and the single sword sheath also began to "reverse" in place, tilting to the left, turning to the right, pressing down, and lifting up. With each movement, the single sword sheath could perfectly coordinate, and any thought could be transmitted to each other's consciousness in an instant.
Lin Ye became more and more excited as he played, and simply let the single sword sheath shuttle through the woods.
A man with a sword traced graceful arcs under the moonlight, sometimes passing through treetops, sometimes gliding close to the ground.
Lin Ye stood on the sword, his clothes fluttering, truly exuding the air of a sword immortal. It was so exhilarating!
This is also an advantage he has with necromancy. Ordinary people would never be able to use the single sword sheath so easily and perfectly, let alone control the sword.
A strange feeling welled up in Dujianshe's heart. As she soared through the air with Lin Ye in her arms, feeling his excitement and joy transmitted through the contract, she suddenly felt quite accomplished.
"Brother Lin, how about we fly even higher?"
"May I?"
"Of course. But you'd better hold on tight."
The sword sheath suddenly accelerated, carrying him straight into the sky, the wind howling and the moonlight growing brighter.
Lin Ye looked down and saw the entire forest spread out before him. In the distance, the lights of Shuijing City twinkled like stars, and the coastline meandered like a silver snake under the moonlight.
"Brother Jian, aren't you tired?"
"If it's just a short flight, it's fine. But if it's a long distance, my body isn't strong enough to sustain it for long."
"Understood. It's getting late, so let's head back to where I am now."
The single sword sheath is currently at the peak of the "excellent" energy level, comparable to the Snow Fairy.
But this is only the initial form; there are two more stages of evolution to come, making its future very promising.
Moreover, Lin Ye had already vaguely sensed the activity and fullness of the energy level of the single sword sheath, and it seemed that the time for it to evolve into the second stage of the double sword sheath was just around the corner.
Lin Ye and Du Jiancha communicated through a contract, directly sharing the location of the villa, allowing the latter to fly there on its own.
Fortunately, before it could fly out of the woods, Lin Ye suddenly noticed a bright light shining from a corner of the woods below.
The sky was already dark, but that direction was becoming increasingly bright, even brighter than the light emitted by a typical fire sprite, suggesting it might be some kind of weather-related skill.
"Wait, there's something going on over there, let's go check it out!"
The sword sheath turned and flew towards the bright light. As it got closer, Lin Ye's mental energy even sensed a faint sense of familiarity.
"Huh? It's them!"
But then, in the dark forest below, there was a small patch of bright, dazzling light. Two people stood side by side in the light, with a coal turtle and a fire-breathing camel in front of them respectively!
On their opposite side are a group of small, mushroom-shaped Pokémon, the Mushrooms that are very common in the Hoenn region.
"Huh? Are those the two who fought me and Jingjing during the day? What are they doing dealing with these mushrooms? Are they trying to wipe out this entire mushroom horde?"
Lin Ye landed in the surrounding darkness and cautiously approached, only to hear the two people's voices:
"Be careful. Although these Pokémon are weak, the spores they carry are really troublesome. Even you and I would have a headache if we got them on us."
"Don't worry, we came here specifically for their spores, how could we easily fall for it?"
As he spoke, the burly man threw a Poké Ball, releasing a large bird Pokémon—a Pidgeotto!
The attacked mushrooms were startled, and their caps sprayed out white spore particles, but these were all blown away by the storm created by the Pidgey bird's wings.
This is the Flying-type "Wind" skill, which is extremely effective against troublesome spore or powder-type skills.
Once the spores were blown away, the weak mushrooms had no other choice but to huddle together, trembling.
"Go, fire-breathing camel, keep an eye on the fire, don't burn them to death!"
The fire-breathing camel snorted, exhaling scorching smoke, then gathered flames in its mouth, ready to burn the mushrooms, when a dark shadow darted out from the nearby woods and struck it with a "thud," interrupting its spellcasting!
