I Am Overlord

The Sword Forest was in the middle of the bamboo forest. However, there was no forest there. There was only a piece of broken bamboo root that had been chopped off.    

    

What was called a cut bamboo root? In reality, all the bamboo had been cut off, leaving behind a piece of broken bamboo that could not grow any longer.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun looked at the blade forest with his big eyes.    

    

Hundreds and thousands of bamboos seemed to have been cut down by the same knife, while the remaining bamboo roots and cuts seemed to be exactly the same. There was not the slightest bit of difference.    

    

This was simply a miraculous place!    

    

"With just a single saber strike, he managed to cut off this bamboo forest. This is why this place is called the Sword Forest!" Luo Yongcheng said from the side.    

    

Thinking back, he was similarly shocked when he saw this blade forest.    

    

"Do you know who did this?" Xiang Shaoyun looked at Luo Yongcheng and asked.    

    

Luo Yongcheng shook his head and said, "We don't know either!"    

    

"You don't know either?" Xiang Shaoyun said.    

    

Luo Yongcheng replied, "Yes, back then there was an adult who came to our academy to ask for some Green Bamboo Wine, and then came to stay in the bamboo forest. Initially, we were not too concerned about him, we thought that he would leave after he liked the environment here for a short period of time, but unexpectedly, one day, this lord suddenly made a heaven-defying slash, startling all of us in the academy. When we arrived here, this place became like this!"    

    

"That's it?" Xiang Shaoyun said in disbelief.    

    

"So it was at that time that we found out that the other party was a hidden expert. We didn't dare to ask for guidance from the Cloud Edge City because we were afraid that they would send people here to seize this place or destroy it!" Luo Yongcheng answered with certainty, and then he added on, "Based on all the investigations conducted by my Academy, I can finally guess, that the expert was most likely left behind by the Saber Emperor of the ten great emperors of Cloud Edge City!"    

    

"Saber Emperor? Was it left behind by a Human Emperor? " Xiang Shaoyun became even more excited.    

    

"Alright, I will let the disciples leave for the time being and give you some time to clean up your cultivation. We'll talk about this after you've comprehended it!" After Luo Yongcheng gave his instructions, he instructed the others to leave the place.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun stayed alone, watching everything silently.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun walked into the forest and lightly stroked every single cut made from bamboo. He felt the sharp and crisp cut, and it made him even more apprehensive.    

    

If he could cut more than a dozen bamboos into a single gap with a single slash, he could believe it.    

    

However, the cuts on the hundreds of bamboos were exactly the same. There was not the slightest difference. That was unbelievable!    

    

Most importantly, after this saber strike, all the bamboo roots had lost their vitality. They were completely dead!    

    

It had to be known that even if an ordinary bamboo was cut off, as long as it had a root, it would be able to slowly grow back. However, this thousand bamboo root did not have this possibility.    

    

After Xiang Shaoyun walked around the bamboo forest for a while, he sat down in the middle of the bamboo forest and began to recuperate and feel the Qi Aura s around him!    

    

He had grown up in a big power, so he had some understanding of many things. If he wanted to comprehend the things left behind by his predecessors, he had to be able to sense the Qi Aura s of his predecessors and seize that moment to be able to reap any rewards.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun sat like this for seven days and seven nights. He did not eat nor drink, and no matter how much wind or sun blew, he did not care at all.    

    

Unfortunately, the seven days and seven nights had passed without any results. The Qi Aura that he was looking for did not appear as he wished.    

    

That night, he stood up, unable to calm his heart.    

    

"Saber Intent, ah, Saber Intent. How in the world should I capture you?" Xiang Shaoyun muttered to himself, depressed.    

    

At this moment, as he walked, he arrived at the edge of another bamboo forest. The bamboo in his robe was swaying non-stop, and pieces of bamboo leaves were drifting down.    

    

Whoosh!    

    

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew over, and a bamboo leaf suddenly flew towards Xiang Shaoyun's face.    

    

Hiss!    

    

Suddenly, Xiang Shaoyun felt his face being scratched, and a burst of pain made him inhale a breath of cold air. He touched his face and realized that he was bleeding.    

    

"This bamboo leaf can actually injure me?" Xiang Shaoyun was truly a little speechless.    

    

But at this time, when he looked at the bamboo leaves dancing in the air, the Nether Soul Space in his mind suddenly moved. A shocking scene quietly appeared.    

    

A confused figure was seen sitting cross-legged in the middle of the bamboo forest. However, he had quietly moved the saber in his hand. The saber light streaked through the air like a meteor. With a "shua" sound, a bamboo forest fell to the ground.    

    

Xiang Shaoyun felt as if he had been struck by lightning, as he stood there, motionless. This scene repeatedly appeared in his mind, making him sink into a state.    

    

That slash was so natural, so casual, and so careless. However, it contained an extraordinary power, able to cut hundreds of bamboo in half with that slash!    

    

How did he do it?    

    

Xiang Shaoyun continued to observe from within the Nether Soul Space, he kept feeling that he had to grasp at the key point, but he also kept feeling that he was still missing something.    

    

At this time, he thought back to the moment he was sliced by the bamboo leaves. Although he didn't care, it still hurt him.    

    

Why is that?    

    

Xiang Shaoyun kept pondering and comprehending, and his body unconsciously sat down, with the Overlord Heaven Battling Blade on his knees.    

    

He once again entered a meditative state, and this time, it was even more thorough than the previous seven days.    

    

He saw the ant climb onto his face, but he remained indifferent. There were also some birds that flew over his head, but he still didn't feel anything …    

    

This was truly a state of complete meditation!    

    

It was the best form of enlightenment!    

    

In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed. There were already many dried up leaves on his body and even more bird poop on his body. It was as if he was sitting here to his death.    

    

On this day, the Overlord Heaven Battling Blade below his knees suddenly trembled, strands of purple-gold Qi floated up, the dried up leaves on his body fell, and all the junk around him started to tremble without wind.    

    

Suddenly, Xiang Shaoyun waved the Overlord Heaven Battling Blade in his hand!    

    

Swish!    

    

A blade shadow flashed like a beam of light and returned to his knee. The blade light disappeared completely, as if the blade had never been slashed at all. Everything was still as calm as before!    

    

Hu hu!    

    

The sound of the wind stealthily approached, making the bamboo sway slightly.    

    

Clap clap!    

    

Suddenly, the bamboo in front of Xiang Shaoyun quietly fell down, letting out clear sounds.    

    

Just then, Luo Yongcheng, who was walking in this direction, heard the sound, and his heart started racing. He exclaimed in his heart, "He can't have truly comprehended it, right?!"    

    

Without thinking, he quickly rushed in Xiang Shaoyun's direction.
