Chapter Eighty-Three: Endless Purgatory
The long sword is about three fingers wide, the overall length is about four feet, and the handle of the sword is close to one foot, a bit like the two-handed sword commonly used on the mainland, but it doesn't look a little bulky, the pitch-black scabbard is made of no skin, and the deep darkness has no reflection.
The most striking thing is the jaw of the sword, which is the head of a demon, and the curved horns protruding from both sides of the head form the sword guard, and the sharp teeth in the demon's mouth and the swallowing mouth of the scabbard bite together to form the demon's mouth.
The corners of the demon's mouth curved downward, giving a very strange feeling, as if the demon was laughing at something.
The demon's eyes glowed faintly dark red, and the dark red light flashed brightly and darkly in line with the rhythm of breathing, as if it was about to come to life.
Neo picked up the sword and flipped over to the other side, only to see that the gauntlet on the other side was a suffering angel, the angel's arms were spread and his head was lowered, his face was full of suffering, the angel's curled legs extended to the sword, and the open wings formed the sword's gauntlet.
The two extremes of good and evil appeared on this sword at the same time, and Neo had never seen such a form.
Neo drew his sword out of the sheath, and there was a scream of pain in his ears, and at the same time, a faint smell of blood came to his face, and the smooth sword body was as smooth as a mirror, and the distorted human face let out a terrible cry flowing through the sword body, making people shudder.
The sea of spirits rolled up the waves, the soul song of the sea of stars moved slowly, the roars of pain and the bloody breath and those distorted faces disappeared, and what came into view was a pool of blue water, and the words of angels and demons were engraved on both sides of the sword body.
Neo injected the aura slightly, the aura did not hinder in the slightest, and entered the sword body smoothly, the long sword was like an extension of its own meridians, the sword light on the sword body lit up without half a minute delay, and the light blue star flame also emerged from the sword body.
At the same time, Neo's perception also appeared in a terrifying scene, the roar, the bloody breath and the distorted face were more obvious, but they were all external and did not have any effect on himself.
Neo instantly understood that these terrifying visions were a powerful function of this sword against the enemy, Neo increased the injection of spiritual power, Xiao Lou suddenly seemed to fall into hell, a terrible roar and a strong smell of blood filled the entire space, and the distorted human face floated up from the sword, scattering in the air like demons dancing around, and actually rushed towards Viscalo next to him.
At the same time, the angel on the other side of the sword also came to life, the phantom of the archangel was projected in the air, the angel lowered his eyebrows and chanted the prayer of atonement, the light cross sword in his hand emitted a dazzling holy light, and the image of evil and holiness appeared on the small arm at the same time, which made people very surprised.
Neo hurriedly withdrew his spiritual power, and the strange sight in the air disappeared, and Neo said, "That's it." Grandpa, I want this sword. ”
Viscalo said, "Don't you look any more? ”
Neo replied, "No, grandpa, I want it!" ”
Viscarlo said, "It seems that you are entangled with the thread of its fate. Neo, this sword is called "Inner Demon", and Langananus and I went deep into the hundredth layer of the abyss, where we killed the Abyss Lord Umamamantin, and then we searched that level and found it in a hall. Speaking of this, Viscalo took the long sword and stroked the blade of the sword, as if he had returned to the past.
"The sword was stuck in an altar, and when I pulled it out, the layer began to crumble. Later, there were people who killed the 100th floor, but never saw a similar item again, and Langananus and I guessed that the abyss would only produce such an item if it was the first time to hit the 100th floor. We don't know if it's magical, and some people suspect that it's a reward mechanism, but it's so ridiculous that almost no one believes it. ”
Viscarlo said as he waved a few times at will, and where the blade crossed, several black lines appeared in the air, and Neo suddenly found that these black lines were actually spatial cracks that had been cut, and Viscarlo could break through the space with a casual swing of the long sword, which shows the strength of his cultivation!
"This sword looks so strange that Langananus is reluctant to even look at it more, so I take it in my pocket. After so many years, no one wants to touch it, but I didn't expect to be taken by you today. Viscarlo handed the sword to Neo,
"I consulted a lot of ancient books, and I also asked people, but only found very little information, legend has it that this sword was forged by the archangel - Ophel, and then Ophel was tempted by the devil, and finally fell into the abyss, this sword has become what it is now, but Ophel did not completely sink, his soul was split in half, so this sword has the power of both angels and demons. Its name is also derived from this, the archangel Ophel failed to resist his inner demons and fell into hell, and there is also a theory that its name was named after the strongest enemy it killed, and before Ophel fell, he used it to kill half of his inner demons, so the name of the inner demon was printed on the sword. Viscarlo pointed to the two strange characters on the sword and said,
"There is some truth to this statement, I have used it to kill several strong enemies, but its name has not changed, indicating that the heart demon is the strongest enemy it has ever killed. Neo, you are a cultivator of ancient martial arts, you should know that the heart demon is the most feared enemy of all cultivators, no matter how high your cultivation is, the heart demon is the most difficult enemy to deal with. It can kill half of the demons in the heart, it is really unimaginable, how powerful the archangel is. When Viscarlo said this, there was a look of displeasure in his eyes.
"The visions it presents are very wonderful, some people see hellish scenes, and demons see angels attacking them, you say it's magical. The so-called relationship is born from the heart, which should also be the magic of it called the heart demon. I call them "Endless Purgatory," and it's a controllable ability that you can hide or unleash it. The power of this sword is more than that, I don't bother to think about it, you can take a closer look at it when you go back. ”
"Thank you, grandpa!" Neo happily hung the "inner demon" on his body.
Back at the palace, Tina saw the sword at Neo's waist and happily ran over to ask questions.
Neo drew his sword, and the terrifying vision in the air made Tina frown, and said, "Why did you choose such a ghostly one, why don't you choose one that is above board." ”
Neo said, "Isn't it better to use it against the enemy?" ”
Viscarlo said: "When Neo goes back and understands it, it will not be like this, and it will only come out of its sheath like an ordinary long sword." Tina's face pale.
Seeing that Tina was not very satisfied, Neo said, "You don't know where this sword came from. This sword is famous, from the 100th layer of the abyss, it was found in the abyss after Grandpa and Archbishop Langananus killed the Abyss Lord Uma Manting, and the spell attached to this sword is exactly my practice, a match made in heaven! Even if someone takes the Great Light Sword of the God of Light to exchange it with me, I won't change it. Don't underestimate it Tina. It can kill the demons in your heart, and when you break through the realm in the future, I will lend it to you to help you kill the demons. Neo knew that Tina had broken her sword, and she had been feeling guilty, and she opened her mouth to her grandfather behind her back, just to find herself a powerful weapon, and when she saw Tina's sullen appearance, Neo immediately praised the power of her demons to make Tina happy.
However, Neo was indeed very satisfied with the magic sword, and he did not exaggerate what he said to Tina. Sure enough, Tina was happy to hear Neo say this.
That night, a grand feast was held in the palace, and the long table was filled with fine cutlery, and the original knives and forks were replaced by pairs of chopsticks. Neo ate happily, and the careful arrangement of the couple made Neo feel warm.
