In Clear Breeze Gorge that was at the back of the Sword Sect, the Unfettered One floated in midair, yet his lower half had vanished and only his upper body remained. Moreover, his upper body was growing more and more faint and translucent. It was like he was disperse at any time! “I hope you can protect the Sword Sect on my behalf!” The Unfettered One was very frank and didn’t engage in any small talk. Tang Ye was stunned, and then he shook his head decisively. “I’m only at the Spirit Realm, so what ability do I possess the protect the Sword Sect?” Even though the Sword Sect had suffered heavy losses, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse. The Sword Sect still possessed numerous experts right now, and it even had a Monarch Realm expert. So, there was no need for him to protect the Sword Sect at all! Moreover, even if he had the ability, why should he protect the Sword Sect? After all, if it wasn’t because of Su Qingshi, he would have even thought of helping Yuan Tian and the others annihilate the Sword Sect! He had an utterly terribly impression of the six great powers! The Unfettered One suddenly said, “Do you know what sort of sword technique I executed earlier while in the form of a soul?” “What technique was it!?” Tang Ye’s eyelids twitched. He was very curious about that attack. Because that attack hadn’t utilized even a trace of profound energy, but a strand of sword qi had actually been utilized while under the circumstances of not utilizing profound energy. This made Tang Ye feel both shocked and puzzled at the same time. The Unfettered One smiled and said, “It was a Soul Technique. To be precise, it was a Sword Soul Technique, a Sword Soul Technique formed from the essence, spirit, energy, Soul Energy, and Mental Energy. Moreover, it disregards the physical body. Unless the target of it possessed a Dark Treasure that specialized in defending against Soul Techniques, otherwise, that technique can even disregard the defenses of high-grade Heaven Rank Dark Treasures. Of course, the precondition is that your Sword Soul Technique is sufficiently formidable!”A Sword Soul Technique!Isn’t this similar to An Nanjing’s Triad Mantra? Tang Ye was tempted. Just the ability to disregard physical defenses and Dark Treasures were sufficient to tempt him. Just think about it, if he were to utilize that shocking sword within the tiny vortex that he’d obtained earlier and executed this Sword Soul Technique, then what would the effects be? If he was able to take his enemy by surprise, then he might even be able to instantly annihilate an Exalt Realm profounder! Tang Ye took a light breath of air and said, “Senior, what are your conditions!?” The smile on the Unfettered One’s face grew even brighter, and he said, “You’ve comprehended Sword Domain and the Enlightened Sword Heart, and you even possess Slaughter Sword Intent that’s the sharpest and fiercest amongst Sword Intents. Your natural talent really isn’t weaker to my own. Unfortunately, you haven’t been able to comprehend the Sword Soul. Of course, perhaps this is asking too much of you. After all, I only comprehended the Sword Soul when I was at the peak of the Exalt Realm!” “The Sword Soul?” Tang Ye was puzzled. “What’s that?” “Sword Intent is equivalent to the spirit, energy, and essence of a sword, and it’s capable of multiplying the strength of sword qi and sword techniques; the Sword Soul is equivalent to the soul of the sword, and it breathes life into the sword and sword techniques. Most importantly, once you’ve grasped the Sword Soul, you can utilize the spirit, energy, essence, and intent, Sword Intent, to make the four of them transform into a material state and form into another form of technique!” The Unfettered One spoke slowly. Tang Ye laughed bitterly. So, there are actually so many different paths in the Sword Dao. Looks like I still have a very long way on the path of the Sword Dao! The unfettered One suddenly said, “I can help you swiftly comprehend the Sword Soul!” Tang Ye didn’t become delighted or excited. There was no free lunch in the world. Since the Unfettered One had spoken these words, then he definitely had some sort of conditions. Sure enough, he continued. “I only have a single condition. I hope that you can head to the extreme north of the central territory in the future. There’s an underground palace there, and there’s a person called Huan Bingyun within it. If she’s still alive, then pass my apology to her; if she’s dead, then just forget it....”Tang Ye was slightly surprised. He’d thought that the Unfettered One would ask him to help the Sword Sect or ask him to join the Sword Sect, but he hadn’t expected that the condition would actually be to help the Unfettered One apologize. Tang Ye pondered deeply for a moment before he said, “I agree!” He had no reason to refuse because it was just an apology, and it wasn’t difficult at all. Moreover, since that person, Huan Bingyun, knew the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor, then the chances of that person being alive was very tiny.... The Unfettered One nodded while his upper body had become practically translucent. Tang Ye suddenly asked. “Senior, are you still alive?” After the Unfettered One overcame the Heavenpath all those years ago, he’d vanished from the world, and his fate had always been a mystery. The Unfettered One shook his head and said, “I don’t know. Don’t put on such a surprised expression. After all, I’m only a wisp of soul. There are very few memories kept within this wisp of soul, and it doesn’t have many memories of my main body.” When he spoke up to here, the Unfettered One paused for a moment and said, “Don’t rashly try to overcome the Heavenpath. Even if you want to, you have to at least attain the fifth rank of the Monarch Realm, and you Sword Intent and Sword Domain have to be improved to a flawless state. Remember my words!” Tang Ye wanted to ask him why but the Unfettered One had waved his hand and said, “I don’t have much time left. I’ll disperse the consciousness of this wisp of soul later, and then you must devour this wisp of my soul. This wisp of soul contains the method to comprehend the Sword Soul and some sword techniques I utilized all those years ago. Moreover, it contains some of my comprehensions and understandings of the Sword Dao. It should be useful to you.” As soon as he finished speaking and before Tang Ye could even reply, the Unfettered One’s upper body suddenly shrunk and converged into a dot of light, and then it directly entered into the space between Tang Ye’s brows. Tang Ye’s face instantly warped because countless memories had surged into his mind, and the impact from it was extremely terrifying! Moreover, it struck directly at the mind!
