Chapter 21: Sword Hunting

The foothills of Nanshan Mountain.

Winter.

The wind was cold.

Snowflakes flying.

A teenager is walking with difficulty on a mountain road.

The young man was dressed in green clothes, tall and thin, with a pale complexion, revealing exhaustion and pain all over his body.

The boy's steps were heavy and slow, and he walked towards the south step by step.

He was followed by several ferocious beasts, which opened their mouths from time to time and let out a low roar, apparently hungry.

There was no expression on the young man's face, not even the slightest change in his breathing, as if he were a dead man.

He walked, kept moving forward, perhaps because he was too tired, and after walking some distance, the boy's footsteps stopped.

His hands clenched into fists, his body trembling slightly.

His lips were dry and cracked, and his whole body was exhausted, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, and continued to walk into the distance step by step.

This is his destiny and his mission!

This boy is the ruler between the eyebrows.

From the age of fifteen, he was imbued with a mission: he was the son of a swordsmith, and he had to find a sword that his father had left him, a sword called Ganjun, and then avenge his father.

He has carried his mission all his life, no matter what the circumstances, he must do it, and only by doing it can he not have to be as painful as he is now in the future.

This mission is something he can't change!

But now, this mission is not yet complete.

His father's demon spirit once told him that when he left the house and walked south, there was a pine tree growing on a stone in the south mountain, and the sword was hidden on the back of the pine tree.

Three years have passed, and he has not found the pine tree.

"Ahh

The ruler between the eyebrows raised his head to the sky and howled in pain.

His face grew paler, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, which slid down his pale countenance, dripping onto the snow, and were melted and vanished in an instant.

His whole body was as stiff as an ice cube, and he didn't even feel the slightest warmth.

But he's still moving forward.

The road never seems to end.

He moved very slowly, like a snail, squirming little by little.

Every step he took brought him great pain, and his heart seemed to be about to break, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, and marched towards the south with all his strength.

His gaze was resolute and shimmered with an unyielding light.

The ruler between his eyebrows finally knelt down on a snowy field.

His whole body was twitching violently, and his body could no longer bear the torture.

He was unconscious in both legs.

But he still knelt there strongly, supporting himself with all his strength.

He has not given up on his goal, although it is still far away.

At this moment, his pupils were filled with terrifying fear, and he stared ahead like a ghost, and his pupils were full of fear, because he saw a giant peak in front of him.

The giant peak towered into the sky, standing like Optimus Prime.

The young man's face changed and turned pale, and a look of incomparable fear appeared on his face.

It seemed to be an invincible giant peak, exuding a terrifying aura that made him feel so small, so insignificant.

His heart was filled with despair and pain.

He knew he had reached his limit, and he didn't have much strength left in his body.

"Chirp!"

A terrible eagle's cry came from afar, piercing the snowfield and shaking the entire valley.

A giant eagle appeared above the valley, the giant eagle was more than two meters long, and its feathers were inky black, as if black iron was poured, and the feathers on that body exuded a terrifying aura.

A pair of hungry eagle eyes stared straight at the ruler between the eyebrows, the sharp mouth opened violently, and the sharp eagle claws rushed towards the ruler between the eyebrows.

"Whoosh!!"

The eagle's body swept by at an extremely fast speed, setting off a fierce cold wind.

The ruler between his eyebrows felt a dangerous aura, and his body subconsciously took a step back, but his speed had slowed down to the extreme, and there was no way to dodge it.

His eyes were filled with despair, like a prey about to be killed.

Watching as an eagle's talon scratched at his cheek.

A piercing pain was felt between the eyebrows, and blood ran down his cheeks.

His body could no longer move half a step, and it was a luxury to want to escape.

"Tweet !!"

The eagle's body leaped from the snow again, and a howl of rage came out of its beak.

The giant eagle looked down at the ruler between the eyebrows, the ferocity and cruelty in its eyes were unobstructed, its mouth was wide open, and a fierce wind blew, blowing the hair between the eyebrows, and the ruler between the eyebrows only felt dizzy, and its body shook a little.

"Smack!!

There was a loud bang.

The body between the eyebrows was hit by a blow from the giant eagle, and it flew several feet away at once.

The body of the ruler between the eyebrows smashed against the solid rock, and a mouthful of blood spat out.

"Tweet ......!!!"

The giant eagle hissed angrily, its eyes glinting with bloodthirsty and murderous intent.

It swooped down on the ruler between the eyebrows, its wings waved, and its sharp claws, like a sharp blade, exuded a cold murderous intent, and grabbed fiercely towards the neck of the ruler between the eyebrows.

The pupils between his eyebrows shrank suddenly, and his heart beat violently.

It was a fear and despair of death.

His head went blank.

Just at the last moment.

"Huh!"

A black light flickered, and a pitch-black short sword appeared in front of the eyebrow ruler.

It shimmered with a cold luster, and a sword aura swirled around it.

A black light shot up from the dagger.

It flew into the sky, towards the giant eagle.

"Poof!!!

The dagger pierced the Giant Eagle's neck.

The giant eagle's body shook, and then fell from the sky, its body shattered into countless pieces of flesh, and sprinkled on the snow, bright red, dazzling, and a strong fishy smell permeated.

The eyes of the ruler between the eyebrows were full of shock.

This black short sword turned out to be so sharp.

The ruler between his eyebrows was stunned, and he looked ahead blankly.

In the snow ahead, a young woman stood.

It was a tall, delicate woman, standing on the snow, her black cloak rising with the wind, in this ice and snow, it looked particularly eye-catching, as if it was the brightest star in the night, overshadowing the surrounding scenery.

The pupils of the ruler between the eyebrows were filled with a look of disbelief.

How could such a woman possess such terrifying power? Can you kill a giant eagle in one move?

Who the hell is this woman?

The ruler between his eyebrows looked at the woman, his eyes flashed with shock, he wanted to see the woman's face clearly, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see the woman's true appearance.

His eyes trembled, and his consciousness blurred.

His body trembled, and he couldn't support it anymore.

The pupil of the glabellar ruler shrinks suddenly.

Finally fainted.
