《World Of Swords》3 : Trial
Advertisement
As the eye appeared, it immediately started carefully examining the youths. When it reached Xu Yue, it stopped for a second while its pupil became slightly dilated before going back to normal.
"The trial shall begin shortly," a voice resounded in the minds of all present.
Immediately after, Xu Yue found herself in a small room with a small book in front of her. The words Water Drop Sutra were written on the cover.
When she opened the book, Xu Yue looked at the first page.
'This is an Earth Rank Sword Style, it wondered through the void after the destruction of it's home world and miraculosly survived, The Style was atracted towards the Sect because of the powerful sword qi that exists here, from then on it became one of the numerous sword art's held be the sect'
'This art can quide the cultivator towards the Minor Dao of Water Drop'
'To pass the trial, you need to comprehend the first chapter of this Sword Art to Greater Mastery .'
"Let's begin," said Xu Yue a bit weakly, remembering how long it took her to practice the Origin sword Style.
As she started reading the art, she became engrossed in it. Half way through, she wanted to put the Art down and begin practicing it immediately. After completely reading it a few times, she couldn't stop anymore.
She took out her sword from the sheath, that had been giftet to her by her grandfather then she was 5. If you looked closely at the seith, you could see several big cuts in it.
As she began practicing, Xu Yue found herself unable to stop, even though normally she would become tired or hungry after practicing for more than 10 hours. In this place, she felt nothing but the improvement of her movements. As a day passed, she could feel herself coming closer to something. Her sword became more and more fluid, gentler but more overwelming.

After a while, her sword began to move like water, her somewhat unpredictable attacks from before transformed into an ocean that would drown the defender in them.
"I have reached Initial Accomplishment," thought Xu Yue.
"Luckily my fears have not become true, this is much easier to master than the Origin Sword Art."
Thinking of the Origin Sword Art, Xu Yue couldn't help but have an idea.
Xu Yue began to spantaneously practice The Origin Sword Art. This time her movements were quite different than usual. The the individual movements were more gentle and overwhelming, but the delicate balance between the moves was destroyed and her attacks were becoming more and more messy. After a while, she couldn't help but stop.
"Changing the Origin Sword Art is as difficult as i imagined. I have no chance of improving it at all" thought Xu Yue, but she did find something rather peculiar. She discovered that the Origin Sword Art seems to be a combination of a large number of powerful arts, the weakest of which should be equivalent to The Water Drop Sutra.
As Xu Yue was in deep thought, she did not know that a large eye was looking at her at that very moment.
"To reach Initial Accomplishment in a day, she has a good chance to pass the 4th floor," thought the artifact spirit.
"Since she is so talented, I shall ask master what rewards I should give her," decided the artifact spirit.
For the next few days, Xu Yue had been practicing The Water Drop Sutra. As she continued to practice it, she felt it becoming more and more focused. For the past few days, she felt her attacks transforming from an ocean to a sea to a river all the way to a single drop of water. From the outside the change did not look massive, it looked as if her attacks had gotten a bit more focused.

But the change was extremely great. Xu Yue felt that her strength using the Water Drop Sutra was a dozen times stronger than before, but comparing it to The Origin Sword Art, Xu Yue felt rather unsatisfied.
"I have reached Greater Acomplishment, but the strength of this technique is rather weak," said Xu Yue lightly.
As soon as she said that, the eye that was now in what seemed like an an endless void looked at her.
"5 days is faster than my estimations, " thought the artifact spirit.
At that moment, a swordsman appeared in that void.
As soon as the swordsman appeared, he waved his left hand and 3 lights started to move between the swordsman and the eye. When the items were halfway between them, a barrier that seemed infinite immediately appeared. As soon as they touched the barrier, the items stopped. And a majestic eye appeared inside the barrier.
"Heavenly Token, " said the swordsman, as he pointed towards one of the there items. As soon as he said that, the light surrounding said item disapeared revealing a golden token with the word heavenly on it.
When as the Heavenly Dao looked at the token, the token was reduced to ash, and a hole appeared in the barrier, through which the other 2 items went to the artifact spirit.
After that, both the swordsman and the Eye of the Heavenly Dao disappeared leaving only the artifact spirit.
As the artifact spirit was looking at the items, a burst of information regarding what to give to Xu Yue as her rewards appeared in his mind. It made sense of the information for a moment before looking at the first item in shock.
After a while, he calmed down and reappeared inside the Padoga.
A moment after Xu Yue said that she had reached greater acomplishment in the sword art, she disappeared from the room and appeared in the giant hall.
"W-When can I begin challenging the padoga?" asked Xu Yue, still remembering the feeling she had when the eye first looked at her.
"You can either start now or wait 30 days until the trial ends. " Xu Yue almost jumped when she heard this voice in her mind.
"I shall begin the trial now," said Xu Yue, trying to appear calm.
