Chapter Thirteen: Ninefold Overlapping Waves

  "Right! I'm the one who killed him! Who made him so fond of stealing my thunder?" Ha Yun was very pleased, and finally suppressed his Hai Tian, who had disappeared. The entire Hai family didn't have anyone more outstanding than him.

  "Y...y..." Xiaoyu was completely speechless with anger, he had never thought that Haiyun, also a member of the Hai family, would do such a thing to her own younger brother.

  Just then, Haiyun cried out to the Hai family members who were fighting for the gray long sword: "Father! Great Elder, Xiao Tian is dead!"

  These words were like a basin of cold water poured over the crowd, instantly calming their fevered minds. The grey long sword continued to revolve in mid-air, but no one could obtain it, not even the Sword King.

  Hai Yun and others rushed over instantly, grabbed Hai Yun's arm and asked loudly: "What did you say? How did Tian Er die?"

  "Dad, it's all my fault, I didn't take good care of Little Tian." Haiyun sobbed hypocritically, "Just now, Little Tian accidentally triggered the seal on this stone gate, and then he was completely engulfed by the flames emitted from the stone gate, not even leaving a single speck of ash behind."

  "What? How is this possible!" Hai Wuya and the others from the Hai family were shocked and cried out one by one.

  This time, Hai Tian showed surprising potential and strength, and also obtained a Xuanjie primary sword. With the passage of time, he will surely become the pillar of the Hai family.

  Just at this time, Haiyun suddenly said that Haitian was dead. It was as if the Hai family had just discovered a treasure and hadn't even warmed it up in their arms yet when it was gone. The feeling of falling from heaven to hell was extremely unbearable.

  "Yun'er, say it again, is Tian'er really dead?" Hai Wuya shook Haiyun's shoulder violently.

  Haiyun hypocritically cried out: "Father, this is all true, you must hold on!"

  As soon as he heard this, Hai Wuya immediately collapsed. The masters of the other two families looked at Haiyun in disbelief, and they also saw the potential of Haitian. They were all sighing that the Hai family had a new star rising, but in the blink of an eye, this new star was destroyed, which was undoubtedly a good thing for them.

  Only the white-robed old man gave a profound and unfathomable glance at Haiyun, who was choking back tears, and a faint smile that went unnoticed by others escaped from the corner of his mouth.

  "Bullshit! This is complete bullshit!" Xiaoyu couldn't believe Haichuan was so shameless, actually saying that Haitian had accidentally triggered the seal on the stone gate by himself. He was so angry that he didn't recover for half a day.

  "Great Uncle! Heaven Brother was pushed onto the stone gate by this guy, if it wasn't for him, Heaven Brother wouldn't have died!" Xiaoyu immediately choked out what she had just seen.

  At this point, both the Hai family and the other two families' experts were completely stunned. No one had expected that there would be such a version.

  Even Hai Yun's most trusted friend, Hai Wu Ya, was also suspicious. He knew that Hai Yun and Hai Tian didn't get along well, but did she have the guts to kill her own younger brother?

  "Xiao Yu, you're not lying, are you? You should know what your words just now meant!" Hai Wuya's face was stern, but couldn't hide the sadness between his eyebrows.

  Xiao Yu wept, pointing at Hai Yun and shouting: "Uncle! Everything I said is true, it was all Hai Yun who kicked Tian Ge, that's why he crashed into the stone gate's seal. You must believe me and avenge Tian Ge!"

  As the crowd's gaze began to change, Haiyun's heart trembled and he immediately called out: "Father, you must believe me, everything I said is true. Just now Xiaoyu was overcome with grief and had an illusion, don't believe me? You can ask him!"

  Everyone looked in the direction of Hai Yun's pointing finger, and it was indeed Li Tianxiang.

  Just now, Li Tianxiang saw the whole scene with his own eyes and was extremely shocked in his heart. He did not expect Haiyun's courage to be so great. To be honest, although Haitian has already surpassed him completely, he does not have jealousy in his heart, only admiration and envy. Haitian's death also made him quite sad.

  As everyone's gaze gathered on him, Li Tianxiang first felt the oppressive stare from the white-robed old man. He wanted to speak out the truth he saw, but thinking of his family's interests, he lowered his head and muttered: "Haiyun said it was all true, Haitian accidentally triggered the seal on the stone gate!"

  "Liar! You're all liars!" Xiaoyu was heartbroken and had never thought that even Li Tianxiang would say such a thing.

  Haiyun's face was gloomy, and he coldly laughed: "Xiaoyu, we understand your feelings, but please don't be reckless. Everyone is sad about Haitian's death, but let's not forget why we came here."

  As they reminded them, the others in the scene suddenly remembered that the gray long sword was still hovering in mid-air, and immediately rushed to grab it again. However, the Hai family members were all surrounding Hai Wuya's body.

  "Wu Ya, the departure of Tian Er has saddened us all. But Yun Er is right, we came here to obtain the treasure of the Dong Fu. Now that it's within our sight, can we just give up? If the Li family gets it, our Hai family will be on the brink of destruction." The Great Elder sighed and persuaded with a stiff upper lip.

  "Elder, you're right. The dead can't be brought back to life. For the sake of the Hai family's survival, we absolutely cannot waste any more time here! Let's go, and under no circumstances can we let the Li family get their hands on the sword!" Hai Wuya made a resolute decision in a low tone.

  The other masters of Hai's family looked at Hai Wu with admiration, who could still keep a clear head in the face of losing his beloved son, which was really rare.

  Immediately afterwards, the Hai family's experts also joined in the fight for the sword, leaving only those few younger ones behind.

  Xiao Yu gazed coldly at Hai Yun, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

  "What are you looking at? Father, they won't believe what you say." Ha Yun said with a triumphant smile, his greatest enemy had disappeared, and he didn't need to be afraid of the little rain who hadn't even started practicing yet.

  "Despicable!" Xiaoyu snorted and turned his head away, he wasn't stupid, knowing that he was no match for Haiyun now. He made up his mind to use his own strength to avenge Haotian, the top priority being to gain immense power!

  He sat cross-legged, and a light rain began his first meditation in this cave.

  Everyone thought Haitian was dead, but they didn't know that Haitian wasn't actually dead. The seal wasn't an attack seal, but a mysterious teleportation seal.

  As soon as Haitian touched the seal, he was transmitted into a stone room.

  "What is this place?" Haotian covered his head and sat up, quickly recalling the events before and realizing that he had been harmed by Haiyun, but unexpectedly, he didn't die.

  Haitian quickly glanced around and found that the entire stone room was completely sealed, without even a crack. Inside the stone room, however, was a large, snow-white bed.

  Haitian's eyes were about to pop out: "Is this a piece of Frost Jade? Heaven, who is the master of this cave, that they would have such a large piece of Frost Jade and even make it into a bed?" Frost Jade was extremely precious throughout the entire Soul Sword Continent.

  It is well known that in the later stages of sword cultivation, one must cultivate not only their power but also their mental state. However, cultivating one's mental state is extremely difficult and can easily lead to madness if not done carefully.

  As long as a piece of Frost Jade the size of a thumb is hung on the chest, it can prevent the cultivation from going into madness. In addition to preventing madness, Frost Jade is also an excellent material for refining equipment. As long as a fingernail-sized amount is added to the sword, the sword will have a hint of frost attribute, and its power will be extraordinary.

  Even when Hai Tian was a Sword God, he only had a thumb-sized Cold Ice Jade, but he couldn't refine equipment and could only put it on his body to prevent the invasion of heart demons.

  The sea and sky looked around, found that on the wall of the stone room carved some small words, only the years have passed can not see very clearly.

  He dusted off the top a few times, and suddenly the small characters on the wall brightened up, each one becoming extremely clear, as if they had just been carved.

  A stone box popped out of the stone wall, inside which was placed a thin ancient book. Haitian brushed off the thick dust on it, and when he saw the words on the ancient book, his eyes suddenly widened.

  "Heavens! This is the secret manual of 'Ninefold Overlapping Waves'!" Hai Tian would never have dreamed that this ancient book in his hand had such a great origin, and now he finally understood who the master of this cave was.

  Thousands of years ago, the art of equipment refinement on the Soul Sword Continent was extremely backward.

  A sword god emerged, shattering people's traditional views on equipment refinement. By adding a forbidden technique to the refined sword, its power was greatly increased, creating a new method of equipment refinement. The unprecedented refinement of a heavenly-grade sword shocked the entire Soul Sword Continent.

  And this Sword God is also the only one in the history of the Soul Sword Continent who has ever refined a Heavenly Tier sword, because his unique refining technique is called "Ninefold Overlapping Waves", so people call him the Ninefold Sword God.

  It turned out that this Sword God had lost his trace later, and unexpectedly, there was still his cave here.

  The small characters on the wall emitted a golden light, which immediately caught Haitian's attention.

  He raised his head, looking at the small words that had appeared: "Congratulations, young man. You didn't enter the sword tomb to compete for that high-level sword, which means you don't have a greedy desire in your heart, and you are qualified to be my successor. The books in the stone box, I suppose you've seen them too, are the secret methods of refining equipment that I spent my whole life creating. But here is only the first half, at most it can only refine high-level swords, the second half is the essence of my life, if you have the chance, you will get it. Also, there's a little something in this stone room, I'll give it to you, and the way out is written later."

  Haitian furrowed his brow: "Why does this 'Ninefold Overlapping Waves' have to be separated?"

  "Whatever, even if I don't have the ability to refine a sword of the Earth grade or higher right now, it doesn't matter." Haotian immediately felt relieved. This time he was kicked in by Haoyun and not only did he not die, but he also obtained this refining method that shocked everyone, and one had to say his luck was too good.

  "Haiyun, you want to put me in a desperate situation, then I won't show any mercy either!" Hai Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing an intimidating and ferocious gaze.
