The Birth of Sword God-Chapter 166 - 151: This Is the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard

Chapter 166: Chapter 151: This Is the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard

In Chu Huaixu’s hand was a sword scabbard, entirely pitch-black, made from ordinary Black Wood. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Attached to the scabbard was a pendant with a black bead, with black tassels hanging below the bead.

Although the design of the entire sword scabbard was very simple, it exuded an inexplicable charm.

Apart from those in the know, no one would have expected Geng Tianhe to ask for a sword so sincerely, essentially inviting him to draw out his Lifebound Sword, but the result... he drew a sword scabbard?

This gave people a rather peculiar feeling.

It even made people feel like they were being toyed with, hinting at a dense air of disdain, as if they weren’t worth looking at.

Yet discerning individuals immediately noticed the extraordinary nature of the sword scabbard.

From below the arena, bursts of exclamations soon arose.

"Super Grade Spiritual Artifact!"

"This sword scabbard seems to be a Super Grade Spiritual Artifact!"

In an instant, everyone’s perception changed.

After all, Super Grade Spiritual Artifacts are rare in the world, seen as Supreme Treasures.

Who would have thought that this sword scabbard, exuding an ancient aura, would reach such a level!

Chu Huaixu held the "Calming the Storm," quietly looking at Geng Tianhe before him.

Taking it out to battle him was already a goodwill gesture of sorts.

"You didn’t hesitate to risk falling into a demon state, forcibly breaking through to engage me in battle, hoping to gain insight; then I shall fulfill your wish." He thought to himself.

But Geng Tianhe’s face still showed some dissatisfaction.

Because no matter what, he was asking for a sword!

You bring out a sword scabbard, what does this even mean?

Luckily, the level of "Calming the Storm" was high enough, being a Super Grade Spiritual Artifact; otherwise, Geng Tianhe would have felt that the other party was publicly insulting him.

In fact, if even the sword scabbard was this powerful, he could already imagine how terrifying Chu Huaixu’s Lifebound Sword might be.

But he didn’t mind losing; he just wanted to fight with all his might, even if it ended in utter defeat.

He wouldn’t be satisfied without seeing the sword!

"Brother Chu, must it be this way?" Geng Tianhe’s tone sank.

His stance was already low enough.

Lowering his stance further would truly disgrace the Sword Sect.

Chu Huaixu looked at him and said, "I have my own helplessness."

Geng Tianhe’s eyes intensified, his aura growing increasingly chaotic.

"Very well, it seems I can only try my best to force Brother Chu to draw his sword!" he proclaimed loudly.

In his view, reaching this point, if Chu Huaixu still refused to draw his sword, he must force him to do so, or the Sword Sect’s reputation would suffer.

This Sword Sect prodigy had no idea; on the high platform, Situ Cheng, as the Sword Sect’s leader, his heart was in turmoil, overwhelmed by waves of shock!

He immediately turned to look at Xiang Yan, sitting in the main seat, and transmitted, "This is the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard!"

Xiang Yan gave him a slight smile and transmitted back, "Indeed."

Having asked for a sword at Hidden Spirit Mountain, Situ Cheng naturally had seen this ancient sword scabbard on the stone platform.

That day, even someone as proud as him bowed in respect to it, seeing it as if seeing the Dao Ancestor.

The Dao Ancestor created the Acupoint Opening Pill, opening the flourishing age of cultivation, and the vast majority of later generations are indebted to him.

At this moment, he couldn’t believe that Chu Huaixu’s sword scabbard was a replica.

The reason was simple: there was no Artifact Refining Grandmaster in the world who could forge a Super Grade Spiritual Artifact from such ordinary Black Wood!

Therefore, it could only be genuine; it was the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard!

At this moment, his shock was no less than when Xu Ziqing took out the legendary Daoist Ancestor Sword from the Sword Box.

The reason was simple; the Sword Sect’s records noted it clearly, the Dao Ancestor, when just a Little Daoist, clearly had no sword in hand, yet always claimed to be a Sword Cultivator, borrowing a sword to use.

What he carried was a sword scabbard.

Therefore, although no one could get a 100% confirmed answer, many people suspected whether this sword scabbard might be the Dao Ancestor’s Lifebound Object?

Ordinary Black Wood, just because it followed him for years, became a Super Grade Spiritual Artifact, which was truly beyond comprehension.

But if it were the Dao Ancestor’s Lifebound Object, with his Realm, nurturing it day and night, the sword scabbard constantly advancing, then it would make sense.

Situ Cheng had already been to Junzi Temple and talked with Jiang Zhi; he already understood that Xu Ziqing’s identity was the Sword Attendant.

That unruly Evil Sword acknowledged no one as its master.

This was within expectations.

But the situation on Chu Huaixu’s side looked different; the sword scabbard in his hand was quite well-behaved.

"So, he actually managed to have the Dao Ancestor’s Lifebound Object acknowledge him as master after the Dao Ancestor’s passing?" This made him feel his scalp tingle.

The reason was simple — once having seen the vast ocean, no other water compares; having except for Mount Wu, no cloud is good enough.

It once followed the Dao Ancestor!

Just who could possibly catch its eye?

How extremely talented must one be to have the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard willingly acknowledge them as master!

At this moment, Mei Chuxue, a fellow Artifact Refining Grandmaster alongside Nangong Yue, also noticed something was amiss.

She was far too familiar with the materials of Magical Treasures.

She could instantly tell that this sword scabbard was entirely made of the most ordinary Black Wood, without any other Heavenly and Earthly Treasures added!

Only that bead was unidentifiable, but it lacked spirit and emitted no extraneous aura, likely just an ordinary ornament.

"How could ordinary Black Wood reach such a level! This defies the realm of Artifact Refining!" She felt her professional understanding was being overturned.

Thus, a bold speculation began to emerge in her mind as well.

"Could this be the legendary sword scabbard?"
