Chapter 467 Shura & Unity. (2)



Shi Lang and Unity looked into each other's eyes, and the latter said, "You better not hesitate now." 

They had been discussing things and were in a crucial situation of the battle. At this time, Unity said something about doing things together, and she made everyone gather all the broken shards from Shi Lang's shura sword. 

The people did not understand what was happening, but they could tell from the tension that it was not very good. Shi Lang looked deep into Unity's eyes and said, "Okay." 

Unity smiled, and then she waved her hands. All the sword shards held by people trembled and flew toward the sword spirit. Shi Lang sighed and said, "Everyone steps back." 

Unity glowed with a golden light, and then she transformed into a long slender sword. Shi Lang gazed at her original form and said, "The sword that slashed the heaven." 

His emotions were very complicated. At one time, he was among the people who dreamt of holding this golden long sword and reaching the peak of the cultivation realm. However, Tian Long's grasp was firm. Many times, many people almost managed to snatch this sword from him, but the young talent did not back off and transformed the sword into a heavenly spirit weapon. 

After spending time with Unity, he realized this sword spirit was more than just a weapon. She was a person, like him, like the rest of them. The only difference was that her body was made up of spiritual energy. He had discovered that Unity was curious about things and acted aloof, but she was trying to make up for the fact that she could not integrate into the world of mortals. 

As he thought about all this, the sword shards began to revolve around Unity, and cracks soon appeared on Unity's natural body. The people from the citadel were shocked, and Luna Baley asked, "Shi Lang, what is happening to the supreme guardian?' 

Shi Lang stood up from his spot and said, "She is integrating with the leftover spirit embryo of my sword." 

The people were surprised. Tex asked, "Explain." 

Shi Lang sighed and said, "I have the strength to wield my sword and push back the demon. However, my sword is not strong enough to withstand the demonic energy that channels through it after every exchange. On the other hand, Unity is strong enough to deal with the demonic energy and remain uninfected, yet she cannot bring out her full strength. 

She is incomplete without a master to hold her. Thus, she is willingly absorbing a part of my sword spirit. It will not harm her, but there will be some changes in her personality." 

The people were curious about what he might be talking about. When the metal shards from Shi Lang's sword melted and began to fuse with Unity. The spiritual aura in the place increased exponentially, and dark clouds gathered above them. 

Shi Lang said, "Inhale as much of this spirit energy as you can and force the demonic energy out of your body." 

On the other side, Zavir was being held at bay by the five centurion spirit beasts. He was weak against them because the suppression mark on his forehead was still present and restricted him. Another thing was that the talisman mark was made up from their essence in reality, so they still had the upper hand. It was like Zavir was fighting against a talisman five times stronger than the one etched on his forehead.

The demon was growing mad and reckless. His attacks were getting stronger, and the shockwaves had begun repelling the five elders. Shi Lang was watching all this, and suddenly a lightning bold struck Unity amidst the blending process. The people gasped, and Shi Lang said, "Do not worry. She is a heavenly spirit weapon. She summoned these clouds to reforge herself." 

The people nodded and began absorbing the leaking spirit energy with zeal. The bolts kept falling, and Shi Lang, who was standing the closest, also absorbed the energy to recharge himself for the battle. 

He did not like to be outmatched by the people similar to his realm. The fighting spirit in his heart had been awakened, and it was ready to let loose. After two minutes, the lightning bolts simmered down, and the newly forged sword appeared in front of everyone. Shi Lang opened his eyes and looked and a long sword. 

The weapon appeared very delicate. The gold and red were battling for territory, creating waves on the surface. The sword trembled, and Shi Lang sensed a connection with the weapon. 

Heavenly spirit weapons were arrogant, and they selected their masters. Since Unity had revoked Tian Long's right over her, this sensation deep in Shi Lang's heart was a signal that he was the next master. 

The terran raised his hand, the blade moved through the void, and the hilt rested in his palm. Shi Lang closed his eyes and flicked the sword a few times before he smiled. The weapon bought him joy and confidence. He said, "Do you wish to be called Unity, or do you wish for a new name?" 

The sword trembled, and an ethereal figure of Unity appeared in front of everyone. However, they all could notice the changes in her appearance. The lady now wore a hanfu, but her golden hair had turned black. Her eyes were red, with a golden light flickering in them. 

She smiled and said, "I would like to be called something more violent." 

Shi Lang chuckled and said, "How about we name you after we deal with the enemy?" 

Unity smiled and nodded. She vanished, and Shi Lang walked to the battle scene in the distance. Amelia and Shi Tao took half a step forward, and Shi Lang said, "Just wait. I will be back soon." 

At this moment, the aura he radiated was similar to the past. The days when the young general had just stepped into the world to make his way up the ranks. He was the dauntless Ace of Terrans. 

Shi Lang arrived near the scene and said, "I will take it from here." 

The five elders had just repelled an attack from the people. Shi Lang's arrival was a relief for them. The people nodded and took a few steps back. The young man stood facing the demon. 

Zavir glared at the young man and said, "I do not understand why you did not run away when you had the chance." 

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I have never run away from a challenge. Even if I ran away, you would still come after me." 

Zavir smiled and said, "Yes, see how we understand each other after a battle. How about you and all the ants behind you give in to the demonic path? You will stay alive and well." 

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Well, let's see if you can convince me." 

Zavir chuckled and vanished from his spot. Shi Lang did not react; he waited, and the swords clashed. However, Shi Lang did not even budge in the slightest. Unity repelled the demonic energy from the clash. 

Zavir narrowed his eyes and said, "So, the heavenly spirit weapon sacrificed her individuality for your cause? Remarkable." 

Shi Lang did not intend to talk to this guy and directly pushed him back. Zavir was surprised, but Shi Lang's was covered in lightning sparks and the young man appeared invincible. The demon did not have the time to think when Shi Lang said, "Shura Domain." 

In an instant, a field of lighting surrounded the two people. It was like a planetary ring with the duo as the center. Zavir immediately became wary. 

...

Shi Tao asked, "Baba seemed to have changed back to his usual dauntless self." 

Amelia nodded and said, "He lost his heart when the demonic energy tortured him. The repeated loops dampened his heart. That is why he could not even use all his skills, and his sword also broke because of this." 

Shi Tao nodded and Crystal spoke up from the side, "Indeed, we sensed the restrain in his behavior earlier but could not point out what was wrong. But how did he unknot the tie in his heart?" 

Amelia smiled and said, "I have no idea what triggered him, but perhaps it is the way Unity decided to blend with the sword spirit that made him realize that he is not alone." 

Shi Tao said, "He always shoulders everything on his own. That is why Senior Unity's actions are a plausible trigger for him." 

The people nodded and Jenkins said, "I have no idea what this guy is even thinking. In school, he would step up to save his friends. Almost died in my hands, but he never gave up and replied on his own. Entered the most dangerous camp and turned the world upside down. His codename, Ace is a legend and nobody dares to copy it. Now he stands up once again. What do you think the outcome will be?"
