Tens of thousands of years ago.

At that time, the continent of Arad was very large, and it was not just a small place like this.

The continent of Arad, now surrounded by the Gran Forest to the west, the Stroo Mountains to the north, the Yanofa Forest to the east, and the sea to the south, was only a southern tip of the continent tens of thousands of years ago.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Arad continent had a brilliant civilization and a wide variety of races, which were far from comparable today.

But it is also in response to that sentence, prosperity must decline!

After the once-prosperous continent of Arad reached a climax, wars broke out frequently, and the continent fell into chaos.

At that time, the inhabitants of the mainland, especially the human beings who had developed a high degree of civilization, were unable to fight due to their long-term comfort and lack of war, resulting in insufficient combat strength and low morale, and they were defeated in the war.

On the contrary, the orcs living in the north have a low level of civilization development, but the people are fierce, and they are all soldiers, and they suppress and beat other races, including humans, dwarves, and elves.

The war spread across the continent, and the powerful orcs kept encroaching on the territory of other races, and after tasting the benefits of war, they were even more out of control.

On one occasion, humans joined forces with dwarves to fight orcs on a plain.

At that time, there were countless war dead, and the battlefields were littered with corpses of different races, with stumps and broken arms and bright red blood everywhere.

Coincidentally, there was a strange amethyst under the battlefield. The blood on the ground seeped into the ground, and it was actually absorbed by the amethyst, and it slowly changed.

A few more wars broke out in that area, and more blood seeped into the ground and was absorbed by the amethyst.

Finally, Amethyst sucked enough blood, broke through the ground, and according to her own instincts, she transformed herself into a two-handed giant sword based on the weapons left behind on the battlefield.

It wasn't long before a homeless man came to the battlefield to pick up rags. I found a purple glittering two-handed sword that was very gorgeous, and I thought I had picked up a treasure left by a nobleman, so I picked up the sword and ran.

Later, the Tramp Road encounters orc robbers. I thought I was going to die, and I wanted to hand over the amethyst sword I picked up to see if I could save my life.

But who knows, when he held the hilt of the sword with both hands, he immediately felt that the blood in his body seemed to be absorbed by this sword, and his body was suddenly full of strength, and he felt strong confidence in his heart, feeling that he was invincible, and did not hesitate to swing his sword to fight with the orc bandits.

When the homeless man came to his senses again, he was horrified to find that he was not dead. There wasn't even anything at all, but on the ground around him, there were many broken corpses of orc robbers.

The homeless man was terrified, and desperately fled home, and was held by the amethyst sword in his hand. was also taken back by him unconsciously.

The war on the continent continues, and the elves who don't like to fight have retreated again and again, and have taken refuge in the southernmost part of the continent, the Gran Forest. Stubborn dwarves and resilient humans, but they have always insisted on fighting against the orcs.

Just as the combined forces of humans and dwarves were on the verge of total defeat, a hero appeared.

It was a human armed with an amethyst sword, and as soon as he appeared, he broke into the orc camp alone, killed the orc commander, and retreated.

Afterwards. The human hero led the remnants of his army and took the initiative to attack the orc city, earning endless glory for himself with successive victories.

With military exploits and fame, high-ranking officials are naturally indispensable.

The human hero was first made a duke, and then married a princess of the Human Empire. Even after the death of the old king, he ascended the throne as emperor.

No one knew that the hero was originally just a poor vagabond, and it was only because he picked up an amethyst sword that he suddenly rose to the top of the continent.

And he has a secret that is very well hidden. That is, every time he used that amethyst sword, he had to drink the blood of the living. From one person at the beginning, it is impossible to satisfy the blood of a hundred people.

Because his precious amethyst sword, although extremely powerful, has to absorb his blood every time it is used, and he must rely on other people's blood to replenish it.

In the ensuing war, the hero still led the alliance of humans and dwarves to move forward, although he wanted to control himself from using the amethyst sword, but in the end, he couldn't help it, and took the amethyst sword to kill all sides.

The temptation of power, sometimes more attractive than the temptation of money, is something that few people can resist.

Finally, in a war, the hero overused his weapons and did not have time to suck blood, causing his own blood to be insufficient and he collapsed on the battlefield.

After the hero's death, his son inherited the amethyst sword and became the second generation of human heroes.

Enjoying the power and glory, it is easy for young people to indulge in it.

As a result, the hero's son was like a meteor, emitting a burst of devastating light, and then fell quickly.

Later, many descendants of heroes inherited the amethyst sword, but in the end, they were all sucked dry by the sword and died, and the secret of the sword was also exposed to the world.

Some people were too scared to touch the evil blood-squirting sword again. But some people are not afraid, in order to get great strength, it doesn't matter if you lose a little blood, as long as you don't use it too much, there will be no danger at all.

However, human beings have no limits, and they have tasted the benefits of strength, and who is willing to give up easily.

In the end, none of those who ever used that sword died well!

Since then, people have called this gorgeous amethyst sword the "magic sword", and no one wants to use it anymore, they are full of disgust with this evil sword, and the glory created by this sword in the past is gradually forgotten.

Is this sword really evil?

The answer is no!

The sword gives people great power, and in return, it only sucks some of the person's blood. It's a fair deal, and no one loses.

As long as the user has a certain amount of self-control and does not use the sword indiscriminately, it will definitely be fine.

But in the end, the human ** still defeated reason, regardless of his own safety, overused that sword, and in the end attributed all the fault to that sword, which is really unreasonable!

Since no one dared to use the sword again, the combined forces of humans and dwarves finally could not resist the attack of the orcs, and retreated to the southernmost part of the continent, hiding in the magic array set up by the elves.

Since then, the continent has been divided into two, and the area occupied by the orcs in the north has been renamed the orc continent; The area in the south protected by the magic circle, because of the vanity of those who fled, inherited the name of the continent of Arad.

Some shameless people. The defeat of the war was also blamed on the innocent amethyst sword, believing that it was the ominous sword that brought the war and defeat.

As a result, the innocent sword was buried deep in the ground and sealed again, and there was no longer a day to come.

No one knows. The sword had self-consciousness at the beginning of its birth, and then went through wars and glory, and the sword's consciousness grew rapidly, and finally had a complete soul.

Originally, it was quite happy, it knew that it was just a weapon, but it could bring endless glory to the user, and that was the greatest value of its existence.

It is born of blood, and every time it uses its own power, it must also be nourished by blood. It's its instinct. It's also the price someone else has to pay for using it.

But those who are insatiable only want to use it, but they are not willing to take good care of it.

It is a weapon, but it also has its own dignity.

It does not seek fame and fortune, but only wants to play its own role. Help the user defeat the enemy on the battlefield.

Yet in the end, no one appreciates it, no one sees its true value, and just because of its blood-sucking instinct, they regard it as an evil thing, hate it, and hate it. In the end, it was abandoned and sealed in the dark underground.

What was wrong with it, that it couldn't even get the most basic treatment of a weapon?

It has never asked for anything, even if a homeless person uses it, it is willing to pay, and it has brought endless glory to the homeless.

But it ended. Why is this the case?

In the dark and lonely underground, it keeps thinking, and even forces itself to reflect on its unwarranted mistakes.

By recalling the past of contact with humans, one day, it finally figured it out.

It turned out that there was nothing wrong with me at all. The fault lies with the shameless human beings, who do not know how to use themselves and blame them for all their sins.

Human beings, how shameless and filthy they are!

When it suddenly woke up, its heart was also filled with hatred, hatred for weapon users, hatred for humanity as a whole.

It disdains to carry the glory it has received in the past, because it is disgusting to be happier.

Therefore, it relentlessly and forcibly dismantled its own heroic soul, abandoning the glory it had obtained in the past, even if it fell from the epic level to the artifact level.

The strong hatred caused its shattered heroic soul to degenerate into a demon soul, and it had the ability to manipulate the user in turn.

This is how the magic sword-Apophis was born......

After breaking the seal and gaining freedom, the magic sword also found several human powerhouses and forcibly controlled them, allowing humans to kill each other in order to satisfy the hatred in its heart.

Because of this, there have been legends about the vampire magic sword on the Arad continent since ancient times, and the reputation of the magic sword has been ruined.

It wasn't until a few years ago that the Demon Sword stumbled upon the Cave of Sorrow, which was full of resentment, and the aura of resentment could nourish its soul, so it settled in the Cave of Sorrow and made it its own territory.

Now that he met Ying Tianyi, in the face of the insoluble flames, the magic sword surrendered very wisely and recognized Ying Tianyi as the master.

Originally, if Ying Tianyi was a human being, the magic sword might also choose to endure the humiliation, and finally try every means to fight back against the master, even if it was the same death.

But Ying Tianyi is not a human being, but a supreme god, or a god of death who maintains the order of the universe, and the magic sword feels that his opportunity has come.

Don't you humans look down on me? Well, Uncle Ben doesn't bird you yet! Now I have a god of death master, as long as Uncle Ben can establish meritorious deeds for his master and obtain endless glory, then see who dares to slander me! Uncle Ben will prove to everyone that my magic sword-Apophis is definitely the best weapon in the world, and slap those shameless humans with the facts!

This is what the magic sword thinks in its heart, and it is also the reason why it is cheeky and willing to recognize Ying Tianyi as the master.

Since the magic sword has been completely controlled by Ying Tianyi, its thoughts naturally cannot be hidden from its owner, which makes Ying Tianyi, who knows everything, feel a little funny, and really underestimate the self-esteem of this magic sword.

Ying Tianyi held a knife in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, and said to the cool-shaped magic sword: "Apophis, I don't have any blood for you to suck, you can try it and see if you can absorb my Dark Flame." If you can't absorb it, you're not qualified to follow me! ”

"Huh?" The magic sword was taken aback by Ying Tianyi's words, and thought that the god would not care about so much blood, so that it could get a chance to turn over and make a name for itself, but who expected that this god of death master would be even more stingy. I can't even give up blood, so I just give it some kind of flame.

"Hmph, ignorant boy!" Because of the recognition of the same master, the Stygian Flame Sword and the Demon Sword seem to have a sense of heart-to-heart connection. Finding that the magic sword did not know the benefits of the Stygian Flame, the Stygian Flame Knife immediately taught a lesson: "The Stygian Flame is the strongest flame in the universe, and the old man was born from the Stygian Flame back then. If you can absorb the Flame and refine the sword body, your achievements in the future will never be lower than that of the old man! ”

The stance is different, and the Stygian Flame Sword is obviously more polite to the Demon Sword. But this old guy is really good at pretending, a "old man", as if to establish his position a generation higher than the magic sword.

The magic sword-Apophis was not stupid, he immediately understood the meaning of the Stygian Flame Knife, and said with some excitement: "Great master, please let me suck the Stygian Flame!" No matter how difficult it is. I promise it will be successful! ”

The danger of the demon soul sucking the flame is definitely not low, and if you are not careful, the demon soul will be wiped out.

The magic sword has already tried the taste of the underworld just now, and it is definitely terrifying. But it doesn't want to give up, it wants to prove to the world that it's not an ominous sword, but a true sword of glory!

"Okay, bear with it, don't cry out in pain!" Ying Tian nodded, controlling the flame in his body to separate a trace that was thinner than his hair. Instilled into the magic sword.

In an instant, the feeling of incomparably cold and incomparably painful invaded the heart of the demon soul, and it almost didn't let it die of pain.

But it still gritted its teeth and held back, it knew that Ying Tianyi was already its master, so it belonged to Ying Tianyi's Shen Yan. It shouldn't hurt it too much, as long as it survives the discomfort of the early stage of fusion, it won't be so uncomfortable in the future.

The amethyst-like body of the magic sword, after absorbing a trace of the flames, the color began to change obviously. Gradually there is a shift towards black.

The purple-black demonic aura emanating from the sword body also became more and more eerie.

Ying Tianyi naturally knew the approximate bearing capacity of the magic sword, so he set aside a little bit of the Dark Flame for it to absorb. Otherwise, increase the output of the Stygian Flame a little, and store it in an instant to kill the demon soul.

Fortunately, the fusion was quite smooth, and the magic sword had no danger of absorbing that trace of the dark flame, and it felt more energetic than sucking blood, so excited that it almost flew up and spun around a few times.

Ying Tian tried it, and the magic sword with the demon soul really couldn't be included in the soul item space, but the magic sword was too big to hang on the waist at all, and it seemed that it could only be put on the back.

"Soul, Apophis, one of you on my back!" Ying Tianyi gave an order, threw the sword in his hand back, and walked towards the three high-level undead by himself.

The Stygian Flame Knife and the Demon Sword hovered in the air, as if considering the question of who would stick it first.

Don't underestimate this position order, for weapons, whoever is closer to the owner means more valued.

"Brother, it's better for you to invite first, after all, I'm the last!" Or the magic sword is more human, it turns its brain and politely gives way.

"Teachable!" The Flame Knife was very satisfied, and it turned around in the air, tilting it to Yingtianyi's back, and the handle of the knife poked out from Yingtianyi's left shoulder, because since ancient times, the left has been the right first, and the left has a higher status.

The magic sword followed closely behind, sticking to the back of Ying Tianyi's right shoulder, and the wide sword body completely covered the Stygian Flame Sword at once.

"Slippery head!" Ying Tianyi raised his hand and flicked the hilt of the magic sword, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Others may not be able to see through the idea of the magic sword, but Ying Tianyi, the master, knows it clearly.

First of all, it is also attached to Ying Tianyi's back, and the amethyst-like wide sword body of the magic sword is more conspicuous, which is not only on the outside, but also covers the inner Immortal Flame Knife, others must have paid attention to it first.

Secondly, Ying Tianyi is a right-hander, and the right hand must be the first to use weapons, so the magic sword attached to the right will naturally have more opportunities to appear.

I like to drag the Immortal Flame Knife, which is old in ancient texts, and I didn't notice these details, but the cunning magic sword saw it, so I took the initiative to give in, but secretly took a big advantage.

Ying Tianyi didn't break it, but he was very satisfied with the momentum of the magic sword, and only when he had momentum could he exert stronger power.

Taking advantage of Ying Tianyi's step forward to observe the three high-level undead, Nuo Yu leaned behind him, looked at each sword and sword, and asked curiously, "Can you all talk with soul weapons?" ”

The magic sword didn't make a sound, and gave the opportunity to answer to the Stygian Knife, which made the Stygian Knife even more satisfied, and couldn't help but agree with this sensible little brother in his heart.

"Madame Hui!" The Immortal Flame Knife is not stupid, and he has long seen the relationship between Nuo Yu and Ying Tianyi along the way, and replied respectfully: "An epic-level weapon with a heroic soul, only by carrying endless glory and reaching the peak of the epic can it reveal its consciousness and speak to the outside world." The subordinates happen to be the top epic weapons, so they can speak out. ”

"What about it?" Nuo Yu pointed to the cool-shaped magic sword and asked.

"Although it is at the artifact level, the situation is special, it has long been beyond the scope of artifacts, and my subordinates don't know how to explain its situation."

The Immortal Flame Knife thought for a moment and said, "The independent consciousness in the artifact has a simple ability to distinguish, and as it grows, its consciousness will gradually increase, and there is a very small chance of evolving into a heroic soul and becoming an epic-level weapon." Like this robe on my lord's body, it is currently a high-level artifact, and if it has a chance, it can evolve into an epic. And Apophis, this kid, used to be an epic weapon, even if he fell into a demon soul and his grade fell, his power would not decrease, but would increase. It's just that this kid is too special, ordinary people can't control it at all, only a wise and heroic master like my lord can control it! ”

Ying Tianyi was also listening to the explanation of the Stygian Flame Knife with his ears pricked up, originally he thought that the Stygian Flame Knife and the artifact-level magic sword had a draw, and it was estimated that it was not a top-level epic, but who knew that this old boy was really the top-level epic-level weapon.

As for the magic sword, it is a freak in summary, although it is an artifact quality, its power is comparable to a top-level epic, so that the Stygian Flame Knife has to recognize its strength.

"Then you two...... Are they all men? Nuo Yu asked curiously......
