Episode 5 Divine Sword ‘Purple Blood’ Chapter 5 Sword Training

Without saying a word, Curator Maia scrutinized every part of the stone sculpture “Waking Dream” as if he were possessed.

“Boss Yale, it’s been two hours.”

Reynolds said as he took his pocket watch out of his pocket and looked at it.

Yale shook his head and said softly, “Don’t be in a hurry, let Uncle Maiya take a closer look, since Uncle Maiya is the chief curator of the Proulx Hall, he must be the descendant of Master Proulx, I believe that his appraisal standard must be very high. I wonder what level this work of Old Three has reached.”

Reno also nodded slightly.

Nearly three hours passed before Curator Maia straightened up and took a long breath.

“I heard that this stone sculpture is called “Waking Dream”?”

Curator Maia inquired.

Yale nodded, “Yes, Lao San named it himself.”

Curator Maia nodded gently, then took a good look at the stone sculpture “Dream Awakening” and marveled, “I have to say, that brother of yours, Linley, is definitely a genius in the stone sculpture world, and can be said to be comparable to Master Proulx’s genius.”

“Although there is a small gap between his works and Master Proulx, in terms of the brushwork carvings, but in terms of the soul of the work, he definitely catches up.”

Curator Maia marveled.

“Stroke carving?”

Yale queried.

Curator Maia nodded, “Yes, but this work has a few flaws, but it also has amazing advantages.”

“The flaws are that some of the concave and convex surfaces as well as the treatment of the gentle curves are slightly lacking. However, your Linley Brothers’ work as a whole is very coherent, and the visual effect is definitely comparable to several of Master Proulx’s works. Most importantly, this work is large in size.”

Curator Maia sighed, “A heirloom piece of artwork takes a staggering amount of effort in each and every area, and one slip up could lead to the failure of the entire piece. To be able to carve a humanoid stone sculpture is rare. Linley he carved out five pieces. The most admirable thing is that five pieces have five souls, and that meaning is coherent. If I’m right, your brother Linley should have experienced a lost love.”

With Curator Maia’s vision, he naturally saw what these five stone carvings meant.

“Dream Awakening, to be able to carve such a work is truly amazing.”

Curator Maia had to marvel a few more times.

“Curator Maia, what level do you think my brother Linley’s work is? Does it catch up to Master Proulx’s work?”

Reno asked out loud.

Curator Maia frowned, “Actually, I’m a bit unable to determine that as well. Let me put it to you this way, the carving level of this work can only be considered to be at the level of an expert, only in terms of consistency is it comparable to Master Proulx. But there is one thing that is most special-”

“The carving strokes of this work. It’s very dry and sharp. From beginning to end, the five stone carvings can be said to be a perfect whole. That style of carving. Unique, I’ve never heard of it in the past. Unheard of.”

Curator Maia marveled.

Yale also said eagerly, “Uncle Maia, what level is this work?”

The Mayan curator said helplessly, “I can’t be sure, from the traditional evaluation method, this work should be considered a master level work. At least there is no doubt about the unique divine soul, and his carving brushwork has already expressed that divine flavor.”

“Traditional appraisal method?”

Yale and Reno all looked at Curator Maia in confusion.

Curator Maia nodded and said, “Traditional appraisal methods are the appraisal methods that have been recognized by everyone for countless years. However, I feel that …… this work by Linley, when viewed. The entire work is very perfect. There’s not the slightest feeling of lack.”

“The existence of a stone sculpture. Originally, it was meant to be viewed. The viewing effect determines everything. One could say that Linley may not be a stone sculptor. But I’m afraid that the price of this work will be very high, enough to catch up with the top ten stone sculptures.”

Curator Maia laughed.

Not a stone carving master. But the stone carving work can enter the top ten stone carvings, this is indeed an unprecedented strange thing. However, Curator Maia had to admit that this matter was likely to happen.

“Oh.”

Yale and Reno nodded.

In fact, this was one of the drawbacks of the flat knife school of carving, after all, using a flat knife alone for some concave-convex surfaces smooth curves carving was inferior to some specialized tools. Perhaps Linley’s results with a flat knife were as good as those of an average stone carver.

But compared to the stone carving master, brush strokes processing, there is a lack of.

But the flat knife school, also has its advantages. For example, consistency, and …… other people carving is constantly changing tools, but the flat knife school of carving is the need for the earth system magician’s mind to merge heaven and earth, to carve. This kind of carving could instead improve mental power growth.

“What about Linley himself?”

Curator Maia inquired.

Yale shook his head and said, “Old Three, he’s a magician after all, he still spends the vast majority of his time cultivating, he should still be in the midst of the Magical Beast Mountain Range right now for his bitter cultivation. I’m also not sure when he will return.”

“Then, Yale, would you be so kind as to promise on Linley’s behalf that I, the Proulx Guild Hall, will be the one to sell this work?”

Pavilion Master Maia proposed.

“No way.”

Yale said dryly, “I can’t very well make a decision without Lao San’s consent.”

Curator Maia frowned and continued, “What about an exhibition? It shouldn’t be too much of a problem to let our Proulx Guild Hall exhibit it. After all, Linley’s past stone carvings were all sold at our Proulx Guild Hall exhibition.”

Yale was well aware of the significance of this work to Linley.

It represented a painful relationship in Linley’s past, and it was hard to say whether Linley would agree to take it out for exhibition, he didn’t want Linley to be embarrassed.

“No, I’m only responsible for keeping it. As for exhibiting it, selling it, and so on, wait for Lao San when he returns.”

Yale said in a loud voice.

In the middle of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

For two months, Linley had been immersed in the Purple Blood Soft Sword, the Purple Blood Soft Sword was the best weapon Linley had ever seen, the sharpness alone was such that the average level 6 magical beast couldn’t resist it at all. The sharpness of the Purple Blood Soft Sword was only a small feature.

The purple blood soft sword’s a little bit – soft and hard at will, extremely fast, and contains a fury.

Yes, it was Fury Qi.

This was still something that Linley had discovered when he used this Purple Blood Soft Sword to kill some magical beasts. The special material of this Purple Blood Soft Sword should contain a strange power, and when a sword slashed out it would naturally have a strange aura.

This kind of fury was very similar to Long Wei. Of course, it wasn’t as terrifying as Dragon Might, but when it came to fighting, this kind of Fury Qi could have a very good effect.

In the dark of night, amongst the hundreds of wind wolves in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, each of the wind wolves’ green eyes stared at Linley, roaring madly as they all went forward to kill Linley. Linley, on the other hand, was scurrying through the wolves as quickly and easily as the fluttering wind, and in his hand was a longsword with a halo of green light flowing through it.

After the Purple Blood Excalibur was imbued with wind magic power, the speed of the Excalibur increased even more. At the same time, the trajectory of the divine sword became more and more erratic when it was swung, and the wind was no resistance at all.

“Hoo!”

A flash of purple with a greenish-colored halo flickered rapidly in the darkness of the night. The trajectory was erratic and bizarre, and every time it flashed, one or two wind wolves were directly split in half. The wind wolves were only fourth level magical beasts. Of the hundreds of wind wolves, the slightly stronger ones were only rank five, and the two wind wolf leaders were only rank six.

Linley was in his human form at the moment, and possessed the strength of a rank six warrior.

In fact, not to mention the level six warriors, even if you let the level seven warriors fight with hundreds of wind wolves, it is estimated that they would not dare. After all, a good man can’t stand up to a crowd. The claws of the wind wolves were very sharp. Even if Linley’s body was clawed down, he would probably bleed. Unless one entered the dragonized state.

“Roar!”

A wind wolf leapt at breakneck speed and opened that bloody mouth.

“Shoo!”

The Purple Blood Divine Sword flashed by. That wind wolf was then directly split in two from forehead to tail.

“This Purple Blood Divine Sword of mine may have difficulty splitting raptors. But it can split you ……”

The Purple Blood divine Sword in Linley’s hand became increasingly fast and agile.

The reason the wind wolves were feared was because they were fast. And they were numerous. If ten wind wolves bit from all around at the same time, it would be difficult for a level seven warrior to block all ten of them, and they could only rely on their fighting qi to resist.

But Linley was different.

“Swoosh!”

The Purple Blood Excalibur was just a fluttering flash. The eight wind wolves that had come at the same time were all split in two.

The Purple Blood Divine Sword was too fast, so fast that all the wind wolves could only see the remnants of the Purple Blood Divine Sword, and when Linley killed more than a hundred wind wolves without any injuries to himself, this large group of wind wolves finally became fearful.

They weren’t afraid to die, but they wouldn’t do it if it was pointless.

“Ow,” the two wind wolf leaders that had been hiding at the back tilted their heads and roared, and all the wind wolves howled in a low voice while immediately retreating at a rapid pace. The wind wolves wailed in grief and indignation from afar, clearly this time there were too many deaths and injuries amongst their own companions and they had gained nothing.

As soon as Linley’s hand dangled, purple shadows flashed and the Purple Blood Divine Sword wrapped around Linley’s waist.

“Against them, there’s no need to utilize the Purple Blood’s true attack power.”

There were traces of blood on Linley’s robes, the blood of the wind wolves.

In the middle of the killings with the wind wolves, from start to finish, Linley’s Violetblood divine Sword was straight. Against the wind wolves, speed and sharpness alone were enough to deal with them. Once the Purple Blood Excalibur was made to be straight and curved at times, the power of the attack would have to be multiplied several times over.

“Boss, you’re getting better and better.”

Bebe excitedly jumped onto Linley’s shoulder.

Linley smiled, “You’re not weak either.”

Taking in a deep breath and exhaling it slowly, Linley looked around at the surrounding magical beast mountain range before looking at the three packages on his shoulders. Another effect of Linley’s research into the usage of the Purple Blood Excalibur over these two months was that it had caused Linley to have magic crystal cores that filled three parcels.

“It’s been two months, my attack power utilizing Purple Blood has temporarily reached a bottleneck, if I want to increase it, I can only increase my arm and wrist strength.”

In these two months, Lin Lei had researched every aspect of drawing the sword, out of the sword, stabbing, slashing, chopping, picking, etc., and the goal of Lin Lei’s research was – to be faster. Strive to be the fastest. This, coupled with Linley’s perception of the wind element, allowed Linley to better comprehend the subtleties of the sword technique.

Just now, hundreds of wind wolves had surrounded him, yet they couldn’t hurt Linley a bit, that was an achievement.

And in the past, Linley wouldn’t have dared to think that he could even achieve this.

“Reaching the bottleneck, there’s not much use staying in the magical beast mountain range anymore, let’s go back first.”

In the morning, the sunrise irradiated the earth, while Linley, who had a purple-blooded softsword wrapped around his waist, three packages of magical crystals on his back, and was wearing a green-colored robe stained with a trace of blood, walked up to the main gate of the Ernst Academy, while Bebe was standing on his shoulder.

“Finally back.”

Linley felt a surge of peace in his soul at the sight of the Ernst Magic Academy.

The Ernst Magic Academy and the Magical Beast Mountain Range were completely opposite extremes, where no one dared to kill indiscriminately and the atmosphere was great. Whereas in the Magical Beast Mountain Range was a world of magical beasts, where the strong were honored and the weak were to be eliminated. Killing could happen at all times.

“It’s Linley.”

The gatekeeper guard of the Ernst Magic Academy naturally recognized Linley, a celebrity of the academy, and naturally wouldn’t stop him.

Linley nodded slightly with the guard before stepping into the Ernst Magic Academy. Walking through the streets of the academy, many of the Ernst students who had already gone to class saw Linley and whispered to each other.

“It’s Linley, look, there’s still blood on his body, he should have just returned from the Magical Beast Mountain Range. I heard that he went to the Magical Beast Mountain Range last year, he didn’t even participate in last year’s year-end testing, it’s been four months, four months in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, that’s really impressive.”

“Dixie reached level six magician at last year’s year-end test, but Linley didn’t take the test.” ……

Listening to those mutterings, Linley just smiled as he walked towards his dormitory, while at this time Yale, Reynolds, and George were coming out to prepare to go eat breakfast.

“Ah, Lao San, you’re back.”

Reno was the first to shout up excitedly.

Yale, George, and Reynolds immediately rushed over excitedly, while Linley was smilingly looking at his three brothers.
