The Northern Sword God

The Northern Sword God
The Story of the Sect Chief of the Mighty Spear



   It appeared that a man was walking half-run towards the hall where Sima Yong was. The man who looks about 45 years old is wearing all-white clothes. He was the Patriarch of the Prosperity Warehouse named Patriarch Xiao Guan. Five Star Great Spirit Realm cultivation realm.


“Master, is it true as I heard. You are the Celestial Master Symbol applying for the position of Guest Master Symbol at the Prosperity Gate?” Xiao Guan asked a question.


“that's true..” …


   Carefully Xiao Guan invited Sima Yong into the Patriarch's special room, Xiao Guan then asked a question, saying,


“Do you really want to join this Prosperity Gate as a guest Master Symbol?”


   Actually Xiao Guan himself was still somewhat lacking in confidence when he was told that there was a person who had the ability of a Heavenly Soul Master appearing in the Prosperity Gate Hall. Moreover, the report said that the Master Symbol wanted to work at the Prosperity Gate.


   Xiao Guan himself was a Second Earth Grade Symbol Master. He was quite well known among the Falling Star City Practitioners. To his knowledge, it was unheard of for a Heavenly Rank Master Symbol to appear in the Western Region..


“Master is it true that you are a Heavenly Master Symbol? And if you don't mind, can you point out one of the works that can prove that you are the Celestial Master Symbol?”


   Xiao Guan tried asking very carefully. He knew that the existence of a Symbol Master, Alchemist Master and Array Master was a profession that could not be considered simple in this Silver Continent. Even the profession had always been able to gather high-level experts into allies and reward their work as payment.


   Sima Yong himself was quite aware that to show himself was a Symbol Master expert, he was, then he had to show his work Instantly an object had been in his hand and he released it drifting towards Xiao Guan.


“Please you verify..”.


Xiao Guan examined the thing in his hand. The look on his face became drastically changed when he saw that thing,


“This is a Fatamorgana Amulet.!!!” hiss Xiao Guan.


   A Heavenly Ranked talisman that only a Celestial Ranked Master Symbol can create as well. Only Clans or Sects of Class 6 or even more possessed this class talisman.


   While thinking, the Prosperity Warehouse Patriarch felt an invisible mental strength touch his mind. Xiao Guan's body trembled instantly. He knelt down and said,


“Master.. forgive my disrespectful words earlier. As Patriarch of the Prosperity Warehouse, I am indeed obliged to verify all goods or anything that will join in this Institution”


   The reality for a Symbol Master, Alchemist Master or Array Master applies a provision. Who is higher in ability will be called a master by the power below.


   Xiao Guan who had tasted the soul touch from Sima Yong immediately realized. A three ranked Heavenly Master Teacher was standing before him.


   He felt extremely grateful, because if Sima Yong were to shake evilly when his mind was touched just now, he could lose his life if Sima Yong tore his soul.


   Sima Yong's adventure begins at the Gate of Prosperity. He has a special room that will be a service room for Symbols and Runes from customers. While Xiao Guan himself took over as an assistant who directly served Sima Yong's daily needs.


   Xiao Guan was indeed intending to serve Sima Yong as an assistant. The hope is that the Symbol Master will allow him to learn techniques or spells by directly watching the master while incising symbols and runes on weapons or armor.


   In terms of compensation, since Sima Yong was a Celestial Symbol Master then Xiao Guan set a very high price for the cost of writing the Rune Symbol. Even Sima Yong allows if the means of payment are rare high-class Resources or valuable information.


******


   On that day a customer came to the Gate of Prosperity with the intention that Patriarch Xiao Guan would write down the magic symbols on his weapon. The man was named Shi Qiang. Shi Qiang who was a celebrity in Falling Star City. He was a Third-grade Sect Master, the Mighty Spear Sect.


   Shi Qiang felt that all of the writing The complicated symbols on his spear had aged old and were beginning to wear off its benefits. He felt the need for renovations and improvements to the Rune Symbol on the spear. Shi Qiang in this case would be having a duel against someone in the near future.


“The cost for rewriting Magic Symbols and runes will be done by the Earth Symbol Master Patriarch Two, The compensation fee is 10,000 Stone Venti energy. No less...”


   The girl at the reception was heard saying without burden. Shi Qiang cussed inwardly, 10,000 energy stone Venti was his income as the head of a 3rd class sect for two months. His neck felt stifled when he heard that.


   He almost yelled at the receptionist girl. If only he had not remembered that he was in the Prosperity Gate building, it was likely that he had already slapped the girl's mouth with a spear.


   Looking at the hesitant guest When hearing such a large fee, the receptionist girl said,


“It's not how much. Our Guest Master Symbols even set the Symbol writing fee at 25,000 Energy Stone Venti”


“What??? Miss, you don't fret. Never have I heard of someone selling Symbol writing services on a weapon with such compensation”


Shi Qiang was furious. Compensation of 25,000 Energy Stone Venti according to him was very unreasonable.it even crocodile earnings for months.


With a scornful look the receptionist girl spoke back to Shi Qiang,


“The Guest Master Symbol of the Gate of Prosperity is a Celestial Master Symbol. Even he was a level three Heavenly. His ability is something you never imagined. In my opinion, the cost of 25,000 energy stone venti is too cheap for the services of a master of his class ”


   Shi Qiang though looked hesitant, yet thought back. A Celestial Master Symbol? It was a figure he had never seen at all. In fact he had sufficient savings to pay writing compensation for 25,000 stone venti energies.


   But he again hesitated. If it turns out that the writing of the symbol does not bring the expected effect, is not the 25,000 venti stone energy like being thrown away for nothing?


   Yet the receptionist girl continued to promote the abilities of the Celestial Symbol Master.


   With a final determination, Shi Qiang finally agreed to be able to at the cost of writing by the Celestial Master Symbol of 25,000 energy stones.


   As he walked towards a room where the Symbol Master was located, Shi Qiang did not endlessly pray that the writing of the Symbols and the effects would be as he wished. The cost is too big.


“Please enter..” a voice from inside the room is heard.


   When Shi Qiang entered the room, he saw Mr. Prosperity Gate Patriarch. Xiao Guan was also inside the room.


   Someone is seen sitting behind a thin screen. It seemed like it was the Celestial Symbol Master. Yet Shi Qiang was unable to clearly see the figure behind the screen.


   Patriarch Xiao Guan hurriedly picked up the spear then handed it carefully to the person behind the screen. After the man touched the spear, he said.


“You often use this spear with your left hand? And is your cultivation element a metal element?” the voice from behind the screen spoke.


   Shi Qiang felt surprised when he heard that the Symbol Master was able to guess the way he used the spear/It was even able to guess that he was cultivating using the metal element. Shi Qiang then replied with a nod of his head alone.


“Please wait outside, the symbol renovation and rewriting of the spear runes will be completed in the next two hours. I'll add a symbol that supports the metal element in this spear to be a spirit weapon that suits your karater”


   Patriarch Xiao Guan delivered Shi Qiang a waiting room.


******


   Inside the room Sima Yong raised the Spear with soul force. Then he cast magic spells which then shaped complicated symbols.The symbol glows around the spear while his soul energy is released towards the symbol that is seen falling with luminous and enveloping the entire surface of the spear.


   Time and again Sima Yong cast a spell and formed a special seal to install on Shi Qiang's entire spear.


   Two hours passed without noticeably passing, the writing of the Soul Symbol by Sima Yong seemed to be finished. As the final touch he then slipped the metal element supporting Symbols into the core of the spear to blend with the Wearer's Foundation when fighting.


   Xiao Guan himself was seen repeatedly repeating the mantra that Sima Yong said. He was imitating all Sima Yong's hand movements. For him the writing of Symbols and chanting of Sima Yong is very unique and different from the general technique.


   The Sima Yong technique he believed was an ancient technique that he had only heard of from ancient tales or had read about in ancient Copy texts about the witches of the Avari Elves in the North there.


   When the writing of the Symbols had finished, Xiao Guan shouted but was detained. A new-looking spear full of shimmering magical symbols looked dazzling in Sima Yong's hands,


“Master... What is Perfect Quasi Quality???”


   For XIao Guan, during his career as a Symbol Master, Xiao Guan had never seen anyone produce a writing symbol of such good quality.


“Master... in your opinion, how much increase in strength can this spear user achieve later?”


“As far as I know, with Perfect Quasi quality like this%. Provided the user is a practitioner with a base of metal element cultivation".


"If it is used by practitioners instead of cultivating with metallic elements, I doubt it. Perhaps its ability will decrease considerably up to 40% course”


   Xiao Guan held his breath while being grateful. It was fortunate that he was allowed to become an assistant when this Symbol Master wrote down the Runes.


   Clearly he gained a great deal of advantage by observing the Symbol writing technique in such an ancient manner.


   He was certain, even though the technique was difficult to replicate, by observing and opening up insights then he would definitely break through to a Level three Earth Master in the near future.

   That night in a barren forest outside the Falling Star city, Shi Qiang stood upright with a spear in hand. His robe was fluttering in the night wind. Cold wind in this region of the End of the Western World. He looks haunted in such a position. Far away in that direction stood a practitioner who also used a spear weapon.


   The practitioner spoke in a cold-sounding voice,


“Shi Qiang, it's time you put down the post of the Chief of the Mighty Spear Sect. The position of Sect chief is my right. You took advantage of the opportunity when I was far away from the sect. Even your Cultivation Realm is not worthy of being called the Mighty Spear Sect Chief”…


“Shi Shing. You are a traitor and coward even a fugitive from the Mighty Spear Sect. You don't dream too much of becoming the Sect Leader. Please try out my spear abilities. Such empty words have no effect on meu”


   Sebenanrya Shi Qian and Shi Shing were fellow Disciples of geniuses in the sect back decades. Yet despite being more intelligent than Shi Qian, Shi Shing was a person who committed a breach in the Sect by stealing a secret Technique that could only be passed down to the would-be heirs of the sect.


   As a result, in the course of his life, Shi Shing became a fugitive of the sect, while Shi Qian was the head of the Mighty Spear Sect.


   The calculation of Shi Shing's cultivation ability was superior that he was at the realm of the Six Great Spirit Realm whereas Shi Qian was at the Four Great Spirit Realm.


   The sound of spears rang out as the two former geniuses of the Mighty Spear Sect twisted their weapons and then charged at each other.


“Tranggg.. “.


   When the spears clashed, Shi Shing became extremely shocked. Why was it that with his low cultivation, the Qi power Shi Qian channeled was able to make his arms tingle?.


   Ah...it was probably just a coincidence he thought, Back he attacked Shi Qian by adding strength to 100 %.


   The spear clashed again and was unexpected by Shi Shing, the spear in his hand came loose and was thrown down. The clash with Shi Qian that made his hands become tingling and then felt smoothed.


   With a look of disbelief he looked towards Shi Qian. The spear was emitting strange symbols. Shi Qian had a spirit spear with a celestial rank symbol.


   On the other hand, Shi Qian himself did not believe this incident. His spear sensed exploring all of his strength and when power was released from the spear, his strength increased to 59% of the power of the Four Great Spirit Realm Practitioners.


   Even the strange runes came out of the spear as if collaborating with all the metal elements on which it was based. His defense techniques improved like a steel shield that could not penetrate all of Shi Shing's attacks.


   The battle of the night ended with Shi Qiang's victory. When the final strike of the spear emitted a roaring sound, it released a layer of Cold Light that mercilessly split Shi Shing's body in two.


   Shi Qian nodded. The spear weapon in his hand was his victory ticket over Shi Shing…


“Master That Heavenly Symbol...”


   He said words that sounded unclear. What was certain was that he was struck by the shock of the work of the Celestial Symbol Master imprinted on his Spear.
