Legendary Sword God Sect

Waverly eyes which were losing their colour suddenly shone with light again as her body shook for just a moment. "Really?" That word had left her mouth abruptly before she could stop herself, which made her ashamed of herself as he cheeks turned slightly red.

Nightin appeared to be calm on the surface while the same thought appeared in his mind once again "Why am I always meeting these type of women?"

Still, Nightin had to reply Waverly before she is unable to handle the stress and pressure building up with every passing moment.

"Yes, but it'll depend on the Voyager family to determine the level of our relationship." Even though Nightin was still leaving the Voyager family a choice, it's actually unfair for them.

The Voyager family was a powerhouse even in the upper realm and is greatly respected by most forces. Yet now, they would have to lower their pride and make a change of decision to cooperate with a youth?

Even if it's the decision of the family head, it would still cause the thought of unfairness to spread through the Voyager family.

Waverly sent a message back to her father as she awaited an reply. In the meantime, she took out a small tower which has ten layers to it. On each layer, the numbers were marked from 1 to 10 from the bottom to the top.

Nightin placed his hand below his chin as he started to think if he had seen something like this before. After a very short moment, he told Waverly "I'm sorry, but I've never seen anything like this before."

Waverly smiled as she jumped on the spot like a little girl who had just received her birthday present. "Hehe, I knew that you wouldn't know what it is. I'll tell you if you beg me for it."

Nightin took out his sword and showed it to Waverly before asking "Do you know what this is?"

Waverly looked at it and was captivated by the sword. It was the Phoenix sword which Gaven has made some slight amendments to as a departure gift for him.

The Phoenix sword was about 1.7m in length and about 20cm wide. It had a sharp blade and was scarlet red in colour. At the end of the pommel, was a crimson feather which contrasts with the scarlet red blade and beige colour hilt.

Waverly blinked as she leaped towards the sword and attempted to pull it over to herself. She wanted to admire the beauty and great craftsmanship of the blazing sword in front of her eyes.

Even though Waverly might not have her brother's cultivation talent, everyone treated her more respectfully and had higher hopes for her. Her talent in the path of craftsmanship, (A sub path of Forgist) especially when it comes to boats exceeds that of all the Seven Snowy Ravens.

Along with her Forgist talent, her great intelligence and beauty could be said to be unmatched in her era. She even had a nickname for herself as a individual.

Everyone know her as the Rising Angel, in a world where they're fewer people cultivating to the Martial Saint realm and with the average cultivation level decreasing, her talent could compare to those demons of the past. Demons who have once wrecked havoc and cause great destruction in their era before the upper realm became the limit.

Nightin immediately swing his sword behind him and told Waverly "I'm sorry, but I can't allow you to have the sword."

Waverly pouted her lips and was about to rebut until she saw Nightin's face. His face was serious right now and she had a feeling that if he were to do it by force, it might bring the fall of the Voyager family.

Stopping in her footsteps, she retracted her arms back and told Nightin "That tower is also known as the Tower of mental strength."

In this world, there area variety of measurement treasures to gauge the a cultivator in every aspect. Be it spirit essence or mental strength or some others, there are many different items out there to measure them.

Waverly threw the tiny tower towards Nightin as he caught it easily with one hand. Before he could ask how to use it, Waverly's voice sounded beside his ears "Take it and inject your mental strength into it."

Nightin nodded as he held the token and closed his eyes.

One breath passed as Waverly started to wrinkle her eyebrows...

Two breaths passed as Waverly started to clench her fists...

As the third breath passed, Waverly couldn't keep her anger in as she shouted "Are you an idiot? Is it that difficult to inject mental strength into that small tower?"

Nightin looked at Waverly and laughed awkwardly "I've never been taught how to do so..."

Waverly face palmed herself before saying "That's right, I forgot that you're still a cultivator of the lower realm after all."

Waverly took out a book from her spatial ring and threw it over to Nightin while telling raising her head like a proud peacock "This is the guidebook on how one can control their mental energy. The better you can control it, the more it'll benefit you in the higher cultivation realms. The..."

Waverly raged once again as she stomped her feet once again, Nightin had actually ignored her as he had already got engrossed in the book.

Waverly and Harvard who were at the side decided to take this time to cultivate, even if Nightin had high talent, they expected him to take at least three days. Even Waverly herself took two and a half days just to comprehend this deep yet mysterious concept.

Soon, half a day had passed as a orb of light started to rise from the east, illuminating new light into this world. With its appearance, it brought about the finding of new found orb and the sense of time into the tower.

Waverly and Harvard had just finished their cycle of cultivation and opened their eyes, only for the unexpected to have actually happened in front of them.

Nightin had already finished learning how to use his mental energy and was already trying it out with a small knife he took out from his spatial ring.

The small knife was dancing in the air as it drew out the shape of the ancient beast, the Phoenix. The shape of a phoenix could be seen as marks of flame were left behind the knife wherever it passes.

Nightin who was focused at this time was too busy and forgot about Waverly and Harvard who were close to him at the moment. Their mouths were open wide as their eyeballs were popping out of their eye sockets.

The same thought came across their mind "How is this even possible?"

One has to know that Nightin had already reached the second stage of mental energy control. Even Waverly herself has barely grasped this topic, yet it felt natural when Nightin was doing it.

One has to know that the reasons behind the lack of Martial Emperors and Martial Saints aren't due to just a weak foundation or low innate talent. The main reason here is mental energy which most cultivators lack, eliminating up to at least half the cultivators of their hope.

The hardest criteria which stops most Martial Kings in their track, is their mental energy being unable to reach the second stage which Nightin is already at.

That's the reason why every Martial Emperor can bring out the strength of their respective element with anything and the reason for their ability to kill with just a thought. The main reason in strength between Martial Emperors is their mental energy.

Cultivators of the Martial Emperor realm can cultivate what's known as the mental gate which is the main reason for their strength. From what every Martial Emperor knows, the only way to attain Saint would be to shatter though at least three of the eight gates in their mental mind. As for every additional gate after that, the difficulty could be imagined as every step is ten times tougher.

After around five minutes have passed, Nightin finished his practice and kept his sword back, only to see Waverly and Harvard who were looking at him in great astonishment.
