Chu Yunsheng was sitting on the icy ground, staring at the sword; his eyes were like a quiet pool of ancient water, motionless, as if there was only the sharp sword in his pupils. He didn’t seem to have heard what Old Youling said.

This behavior puzzled Old Youling. It noticed that after Chu Yunsheng calmed down, whether he was speaking or not, he always maintained this posture and this kind of look, as if he wanted to engrave the sword into his mind through his eyes.

Old Youling circled around the sword, but didn’t find any special about this sword. But it made it feel even more strange. Why would he stare at an ordinary sword? Looking at Chu Yunsheng’s still quiet and focused eyes again, an idea flashed across its mind. Then a wisp of smoke wafted across the surface of the sword, wanting to feel whether there was something special inside. Otherwise, how could Chu Yunsheng be so focused?

Although it was seriously injured, splitting out a wisp of smoke was nothing. However, it still didn’t discover anything.

It was at this moment, it heard Chu Yunsheng say,

“Did you see it too?”

Old Youling was confused, “See what?”

Chu Yunsheng remained motionless, but said one word quietly, “Sword.”

“Sword?” Old Youling was even more puzzled. Yes, it saw a sword, an ordinary sword.

Chu Yunsheng was silent for a while before saying: “Listen again.”

Old Youling could also detect the vibrations in the air. As it began to focus, it also detected the ringing of the sword, and it seemed like the ringing became more and more clear. ‘So this is what he was looking at?’ Old Youling was completely baffled by Chu Yunsheng’s behavior.

“That’s the sound of the wind blowing across the blade.” It felt for a moment very carefully, but it didn’t find anything special, so it couldn’t help but say, “Nothing special—”

Suddenly, Old Youling looked up abruptly, and said in shock, “Did you see it!?”

Only then did it realize that there was no light here at all, how could Chu Yunsheng see this sword with human vision! ! !

This was not something that using energy fluctuations could explain, because detecting energy fluctuations didn’t require eyes.

But it was not a human being, so it could “see” what Chu Yunsheng was doing in the dark. Suddenly there was a feeling of creepy emerging within Old Youling, it was like seeing a blind man staring at a dark corner suddenly, and intently, it was eerie.

This was what was strange about it in the first place! Because Chu Yunsheng shouldn’t be able to see that sword!

“Is it strange?” Chu Yunsheng said quietly, “Don’t be surprised, what I saw was not the sword you saw, but the ringing of the sword told me where it was.”

This response was very confusing, but Old Youling pondered for a moment and gave an even more confusing response, “You mean, you saw a sword that was not supposed to exist? Or did you see another sword from the existing sword?”

“It’s not that complicated, they are all the same sword.” Chu Yunsheng said calmly: “It doesn’t exist because I can’t see it in the dark. However, it is just a visual deception. It exists because I heard it and know that it is there. So I saw a sword, a sword that is exactly like it.”

In the end, he frowned slightly and added: “It’s not exactly seeing, but when looking at the direction of the ringing of the sword, a sword would gradually appear in my eyes and my mind. It is very blurry, very fragile, but very realistic. So I know it is that sword.”

Old Youling thought about it carefully and then said with a sudden realization, “You are heavily injured. It may have affected a certain part of your head. This is probably just your imagination. When people closed their eyes, they would tend to imagine the surroundings.”

“Is that so?” Chu Yunsheng moved his finger and said lightly, “What about now?”

“Now?” Old Youling was tired of this kind of conversation. It felt that Chu Yunsheng’s brain might have really been damaged. What he said didn’t make any sense at all. He might have really heard the sound of the sword ringing, but to so-called seeing was probably just his imagination. There was nothing mysterious about it.

But when it “looked” at the place of the sword casually, it was shocked again, so much so that it was completely stunned. Hurriedly looking at Chu Yunsheng’s finger again, it gasped, unable to speak a word.

“Did you see?” Chu Yunsheng still said quietly as before.

Old Youling nodded blankly, still unable to speak.

The sword that had been stuck on the ground before had already been stored back into the storage talisman by Chu Yunsheng. However, there was another sword right at the place where the previous sword was.

Although as Chu Yunsheng said, it was very blurry and fragile, it was very similar to the original sword. It could be even said that they were exactly the same word.

It now understood why Chu Yunsheng said “Did you see it too?” for the first time. He was not asking about the first sword. He was asking about the second one!

“What, what’s this!?” Old Youling felt a slight difficulty in breathing. Although it did not need to breathe, it still had this kind of feeling.

“Listen again.” Chu Yunsheng still gave the same response, as if time had flown backward.

Old Youling focused nervously, then its smoke almost dissipated in shock. “Sword, sword ringing is still there! It still exists!”

Although the sound of the sword ringing was weaker than before, and not clearer than before, it was indeed the same sword ringing noise.

“Is it strange?” Chu Yunsheng said quietly, still the same response.

However, such repeated responses terrified Old Youling.

“You saw it too?”

“Listen again.”

“Is it strange?”

Three simple and calm words, lingered in Old Youling’s head like a curse, making it almost impossible to distinguish between the past of the present.

The illusion of intense repetition and time was like a nightmare.

“Don’t be surprised-” Chu Yunsheng didn’t seem to feel the strangeness of his words, and continued to repeat the same swords that he had said earlier.

At this time, Old Youling suddenly interrupted, “Stop! Just, just tell me, what is going on!?”

Chu Yunsheng ignored it, and still said quietly: “Don’t be surprised, I wasn’t thinking what you were thinking,…”

Having said this, Chu Yunsheng paused, and when Old Youling was almost confused by his words again, his brows frowned and said: “I seemed to understand it earlier, but now it became blurred again. After thinking about it for such a long time, I probably figured out something, but there should be a few important key areas that I haven’t figured out.”

Before Old Youling could say anything, Chu Yunsheng suddenly said, “Do you want to see its power?”

“What?” Old Youling replied in panic and confusion.

Chu Yunsheng raised his head, looked a little further away, and said in a deep voice, “Something is coming.”

Only after he said this, did Old Youling discover that because of the panic just now, it hadn’t noticed that several fierce creatures were tentatively approaching in the dark, and the energy fluctuations in them were already obvious.

It was about to float out and devour one or two of them before making any plans, but Chu Yunsheng stopped it, “Don’t move, let them come.”

Old Youling didn’t know what Chu Yunsheng wanted to do, but when it heard his calm tone, it thought that he was confident in dealing with those creatures. So it decided to wait and see what Chu Yunsheng was going to do.

As time passed by, the fierce creatures approached one after another. At a distance of more than ten meters, even with naked eyes, they could see the eyes of those creatures emitting the bloody gleams slowly revealing in the darkness.

After they got closer enough, they would speed up or pounce forward fiercely. Old Youling didn’t think that it would have any problem. After all, it was just a wisp of smoke, but Chu Yunsheng was different. He was a human and was heavily injured.

But seeing that Chu Yunsheng still didn’t move, it also didn’t dare to say anything. It could only ready itself to save Chu Yunsheng when he was in danger.

After a few more seconds, the few fierce creatures finally ran out of their patience. With a low growl, they accelerated their sprint and rushed forward fiercely.

“Shit! It’s—” Old Youling’s heart sank. The familiar huge bodies rushing toward them making it feel threatened. After all, it was also seriously injured.

However, before it could finish speaking, it felt a sharp sword intent suddenly appear around its body, as if there were countless swords around it, but it could not find them anywhere!

But Chu Yunsheng didn’t even take out a sword, so why did it have this kind of feeling?

Before Old Youling was able to figure it out, it found that a sword suddenly pierced out of the huge body that charged toward them the first. The sword seemed to appear out of thin air without warning. What was more strange was that it seemed like the sword was produced inside the fierce creature’s body without external interference.

Immediately afterwards, many swords were simultaneously produced in the bodies of the fierce creatures that followed closely behind. It was as if after they stepped into a certain range, a sword would emerge from their bodies, and then stabbed them to death!

Although those swords were very blurry and fragile, and they disappeared quickly after they appeared, all of them were exactly the same as the first sword.

At this time, Old Youling also felt that it also had a sword in its heart. As long as it felt that the sword was hostile, or that it was hostile to the sword, then the sword could take shape at any time, and then kill it.

This feeling was terrifying, but it was still not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing was that it clearly knew that this was just a feeling, and it did not have any swords in its body, but it couldn’t help but think that it existed, and it even began to imagine the shape of the non-existent sword inside its body.

It couldn’t help but collapse on the ground. Then a word suddenly appeared inside its mind, “Creation out of thin air!”
