Continuous miserable screams emitted from the stone wall.

Xu Que could not take it and stopped his actions. He furrowed his brows. "Why are you screaming at the top of your voice? I haven't even slashed a wound on your skin yet you've still got the gall to scream? And you dare boast that you are a deity?"

"Young man, when did this deity scream? Do you think such a tiny sword could hurt this deity?" The creature within the stone wall started to put on airs again.

Xu Que was unhappy with those words. He took out the Killing Blade, intending to stab again.

"Wait, wait, young man, don't you want to know the whereabouts of the Sword Spirit? This deity can give you the information, but you need to satisfy my request. And that is, to get me out of here! There, there, there, what kind of expression do you have now? This deity is able to get out by himself, I'm just wanting to test you, so don't misunderstand!"

"Hehe, I do have a way," grinned Xu Que. "I have a kind of holy water called the 'Purifying Water'. It is said that it can purify this stone wall!"

The creature inside the stone wall was immediately shocked and shouted enthusiastically, "mighty young hero, quick, quick, get this deity out of here. This deity will give you a big reward!"

"No, I only have one bottle of purifying water. It is extremely precious. Moreover, didn't you say you could get out by yourself? So forget it, I'll go search for the Sword Spirit. Goodbye!" Xu Que smiled and turned away.

The creature within the stone wall became agitated. "Young man, come back here," the creature shouted. "If you don't have this deity's guidance, you won't be able to find the Sword Spirit. Don't you realise something? This Sword Catacomb has existed for millions of years and so far, nobody has been able to find the Sword Spirit… because…"

"Because of what?" Xu Que stopped abruptly to ask.

Frankly, he was indeed curious. The Sword Catacomb had existed for so many years and no one had really gotten the Sword Spirit. Most of the elites and geniuses who entered had essentially only hoped to gain one or two ancient weapons from the Sword Catacomb.

"Heheh, young man, exchange your purifying water and this deity will tell you the exact location of the Sword Spirit!"

"Oh, then you'd better forget it. I'm not interested in the Sword Spirit anyway." Xu Que was rather indifferent about it. Spending 5,000 Acting Tough Points for a Sword Spirit seemed like a bad deal, especially as he didn't know what the Sword Spirit could do.

The creature within the stone wall was really astounded by his attitude. "What? You aren't interested in the Sword Spirit? Haha, young man, you don't know about the origin of the Sword Spirit, do you?"

"Oh, so you know about its origin?"

"Of course, this deity knows everything! This Sword Spirit used to belong to an Immortal Emperor in the ancient times before it subsequently ended up in this world. If you can obtain it, you'll be in for a great fortune."

"What kind of fortune?" Xu Que raised his eyebrow as his interest in the Sword Spirit was piqued.

An Immortal Emperor in the cultivation world was not shocking to him. However, a Sword Spirit that had once belonged to an Immortal Emperor… the Sword Spirit certainly did not have a simple background.

"Anyway, it is great fortune. I had previously come here long ago to fight for the Sword Spirit, only I ended up backstabbed and like this. I can see that you have extraordinary talent, so I don't mind giving you the chance to obtain the Sword Spirit. Well, let me out first, and I will tell you more."

"Yo, you know how to fool people well," smiled Xu Que. "Letting you out is in fact, not a difficult task. Well, help me get the Sword Spirit and I will definitely save you. How's that?"

The stone wall suddenly fell silent.

Xu Que was slightly surprised. Could this fellow be pondering my request? he thought.

However, after quite some time, there was no response from the stone wall. Xu Que ran out of patience and began to frown. "Have you thought it over? I'm a very busy man. If you don't make a decision now, then I'm leaving."

"Huh?" The voice from the stone wall sounded shocked. "Don't be in a hurry, young man! I fell asleep earlier. To tell you the truth, the Sword Spirit is sealed. Unless it wants to come out by itself, nobody can see it. The Sword Spirit itself is in a deep sleep as well!"

"What? If so, then I have no reason to stay here any longer. I'm leaving, bye!"

"Damn it, young man, why are you in such a hurry? This deity has not finished talking. No one else is able to wake the Sword Spirit up except me!"

"Tell me about it!" Xu Que replied coolly.

"Although this deity was backstabbed back then, that person didn't obtain anything good out of it. This deity managed to snatch a remnant of the Sword Spirit's soul. And that person could not obtain the Sword Spirit. So, only with this wisp of soul, can you awaken the Sword Spirit, or even, it may come looking for you!"

"Fine then, give me that wisp of soul. If I can get the Sword Spirit, I'll come save you."

"Impossible! What if you run away after getting the Sword Spirit?"

"I won't, I'm not the type of person who doesn't keep promises!"

"Oh, you absolutely are!"

"I'm really not! If you don't believe me, you can go ask around. Everyone knows that heroes from Exploding Heaven Faction keep their word!"

"Okay then, let me out and this deity will go asking around right away."

"No problem, give me the wisp of soul and I'll save you immediately."

...

The two of them argued with each other for quite some time, with no one willing to give in to the other's demands.

Xu Que knew that he had met his match. He knew very well that he couldn't get something for nothing. He pondered for a while and gritted his teeth. He called the system interface and exchanged for the purifying water from the system store. No pain, no gain.

Shoosh!

A light flashed by as 5,000 Acting Tough Points were deducted.

Xu Que took out the purifying water and waved it in front of the stone wall. He grinned and flaunted, "How's this? See this? This is the purifying water. If you want to come out, be more sincere and hand over the wisp of soul."

"Holy hell, you really have the purifying water? This … how is this possible?" The creature within the stone walls was appalled.

Xu Que was speechless. "Hey, so all this time, you didn't believe me? Then why did you bargain with me for so long?"

"Heheh, this deity hasn't spoken to anyone for too long. This deity just wanted to chit-chat with someone. Young man, it seems like this deity has underestimated you!"

"Go to hell." Xu Que got angry and instantly called out the Killing Blade and directly stabbed it into the wall!

"Ah! Ow, ow, ow, ow, ouch! Young man! Stop it! This deity has decided to cooperate with you!" Desperate screams could be heard coming from the stone wall.

Xu Que stabbed more than ten times before finally stopping. "I've decided not to cooperate with you," he sneered. "It's just a Sword Spirit, I can find it by myself."

"Don't be like this, young man. Come come come, take this wisp of soul."

As sound as the voice stopped talking, the tongue moved and a broken piece of iron appeared, falling onto Xu Que's palm. The piece of iron emitted a faint halo.

Boom!

The next instant, bright lights emitted from the piece of iron, enveloping Xu Que up entirely.

A wild surge of killing intent surrounded Xu Que. The area of the Spiritual Qi a few miles from his position moulded into invisible swords, floating around Xu Que.

The strong and sharp power of the remnant of the Sword Spirit's soul burst out from the palm of Xu Que.

Gasp!

Xu Que gulped a mouthful of cold air. This is just a remnant of the Sword Spirit's soul?

A wisp of soul already has such an immense power, he thought. Damn, does it mean that the complete Sword Spirit might be able to kill an Immortal?
