Chapter 740 – The Tenth Bane Tsu Sword

　　Lin Qiye crouched down, grabbed the edge of the black box with both hands, took a deep breath, and opened it.

　　As the lid of the black box lifted, a snow-white long knife with a sheath was lying quietly in the center of the black box.

　　[Chopping White].

　　When Lin Qiye saw this knife, a touch of joy appeared in his eyes as he reached out and took it out of the black box, inspecting it carefully.

　　Under the light of the sun, Lin Qiye suddenly realized that the knife sheath was now, in addition to being snow-white, also had a touch of light blue color, like snow-white clouds that were haloed with a light blue halo, emitting a psychedelic shimmering light.

　　”The knife sheath is different?” Lin Qiye suspiciously looked up at Gu Yuan Liang Shu.

　　Gu Yuan Liang Shu nodded, “The previous sheath was good, but it only had the most basic function of warming the blade body, but now that the [Chopping White] has a blade soul, this sheath needs to nurture the blade soul in addition to warming the blade body, so I’ve gone back to the drawing board on the basis of the original sheath and rebuilt it once more.

　　The current sheath is far superior to the original ordinary sheath, both in terms of functionality and hardness.”

　　Lin Qiye sighed with emotion, “Thank you.”

　　He reached out his hand and slowly gripped the handle of the blade, forcefully pulling the long blade out of the sheath.

　　Clank-!

　　A crisp knife chime echoed in the air.

　　The snow-white blade was exposed in the air like a mirror reflecting Lin Qiye’s face, the perfect arc of the blade did not have the slightest trace of breakage, and the blade flashed with a slight silver light under the light, mysterious and elegant.

　　Lin Qiye weighed the blade and realized that it was a bit heavier than the previous [Zhanbai].

　　He held the blade in his right hand and swung it at a certain empty space beside him.

　　The snow-white blade silently cut through the air, directly distorting the space in its path for a split second, like an invisible knife of space cutting through, hundreds of meters away, a huge sky-high ancient tree was violently cut apart and collapsed.

　　Still the same as before, able to ignore distance and swing the sword ……

　　But this time, Lin Qiye had a different feeling.

　　What this blade could do seemed to be far more than that?

　　With this doubt, Lin Qiye gripped the hilt of the blade and reinserted it back into its sheath, closing his eyes and carefully sensing the energy fluctuations of the blade, injecting more spiritual energy ……

　　He slowly unsheathed the blade.

　　In an instant, Lin Qiye’s surroundings shifted and turned into a bizarre world made up of black and white, and he opened his eyes and swept his surroundings, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

　　This is ……

　　Void?

　　He had directly entered the void?

　　In the black and white subtle world, Lin Qiye held the half-sheathed [Zhenbai] and after hesitating for a moment, he took a step forward.

　　His figure crossed like a ghost, easily passing through all the walls, earth and rocks, equipment, mountains and forests, and even living creatures……. It was as if he existed in another world, and nothing in the real world was able to affect him while he could walk freely in this world of nothingness.

　　Lin Qiye’s mind moved and he once again took a step, the black and white world around him faded away like a tide, and after a slight feeling of vertigo, he came straight to the deepest part of the barren mountain.

　　This was where he moved through the void.

　　Holding the [Chopping White], he could freely travel through the void?

　　A look of surprise appeared in Lin Qiye’s eyes as he looked down at the snow-white long blade in his hand, a look of fondness appearing in his eyes.

　　Shuttling through the void meant that he possessed the ability to take the initiative at any time in the battlefield, just like the Void White Bear in the mist at that time, randomly launching an attack on the enemy from any location, and being able to comfortably retreat back into the void once he missed ……

　　Other than that, whether it was detecting the enemy, sneaking around, or assassination, there would be no difficulty for Lin Qiye.

　　This blade in his hand was no longer as simple as an ultra-high risk forbidden object.

　　It was the tenth Banezu blade in the world.

　　The tenth of the nine Banezu swords, the sword of space, [Zhanbai].

　　Lin Qiye’s palm gripped the hilt of the [Zhanbai], and with a thought, a huge white bear shadow appeared behind him out of thin air.

　　The huge bear shadow looked around, the confusion in its eyes flickering away as it excitedly opened its mouth and roared into the sky!

　　Roar roar roar-!!!

　　This, is the sword soul of [Zhenbai].Nurse number 008, “Void White Bear”, Great White.

　　After it finished roaring, it looked down at Lin Qiye, who was holding the [Chopping White] in front of him, and crouched down obediently so that Lin Qiye was that much taller than his crouched down height, grinning.

　　”Dean, did I succeed?”

　　”Of course.” Lin Qiye reached out his hand and gently stroked Great White’s head, smiling, “It was hard work for you.”

　　”No hard work no hard work.” Great White looked down at his body and then at the snow white long knife in Lin Qiye’s hand, blinked and said, “This feeling is so marvelous …… It seems like I won’t die, I won’t grow old, and my abilities are even stronger than before!

　　Moreover, Dean, it seems like I have a closer connection with you ……”

　　”That’s because you became my blade soul, the connection between a blade master and blade soul is deep into the soul.” Lin Qiye thought for a moment, “Also, in the future, don’t call me dean, from now on, you’re no longer my caretaker, but my comrade in arms.”

　　”If I don’t call Dean, then what do I call you?” Great White cocked his head.

　　”Whatever.”

　　”Then …… Boss?”

　　Big White seemed to have a fondness for this title, whether it was calling Ah Zhu in the hospital or Lin Qiye now, he liked to use this kind of call with a hint of Jianghu flavor.

　　Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow, “That’s fine too.”

　　Lin Qiye held the [Chopping White] in his left hand and extended his right hand, smiling slightly at the crouching Great White, “In the future, please teach me more.”

　　”Please teach me more, boss!”

　　Great White stretched out his huge bear paw and touched Lin Qiye’s hand, while at the same time, a shimmering light flashed out from the snow-white blade.

　　[Chopping White] Recognized the master.

　　Unlike before when Lin Qiye forcibly pulled out the other Banezu swords through the “king’s blood”, now he had truly become the master of the [Zhanbai], a relationship between the sword owner and the sword soul, just like Amamiya Haruhide and the [Rain Avalanche], and Hoshimi Shouta and the [Muji].

　　Even if he lost his “king’s blood” one day, he would still be the master of [Zhanbai].

　　Lin Qiye stood in the deep forest, turned his head to look in the direction of the ancient mansion, and once again pulled out the [Chopping White] and vanished into the void, returning to the compound.

　　Seeing Lin Qiye walk out of the void, a smile appeared on Gu Yuan Liangshu’s deadpan face, and his eyes that looked towards the sheathed snow-white longsword were filled with a sense of accomplishment.

　　”How’s that? This blade is pretty good, isn’t it?”

　　”Very good.” Lin Qiye thanked heartily, “Thanks a lot.”

　　”There’s no need to thank me, after all, it’s also my dream to independently create a Bane Tsu sword.” Furuhara Yoshiki waved his hand, “Alright, since your blade is no longer a problem, let’s go, I’m going to continue forging ……”

　　Lin Qiye blinked and didn’t leave.

　　”Hm?” When Gu Yuan Liang Shu saw this, doubt surfaced in his eyes, “Is there anything else you want?”

　　”There is.”

　　Lin Qiye nodded, “I want to borrow your [Divine Concealment] for a while.”
