The Rise of the Evil Sword God
Ancient pill

Grey Cloud City, Feng Family Courtyard.

The sun rises from the east and only half of its head is visible. There were still water droplets on the leaves of the trees, but the sound of attacking swords could be heard in the dense forest behind the mountain.

A seventeen-year-old youth wielding a three-foot-long wooden sword, practiced his sword skills in the forest. The young man had sharp eyebrows and eyes, although he wore simple clothes, his expression was solemn, and he was immersed in practicing his sword.

The sword arts he trained in were only basic Sword Arts. Although his movements were ordinary, every single movement in the Basic Sword Arts was perfectly shown by the young man. His name was Feng Yun.

Cutting swords, raising swords, sweeping swords?. Every movement and seemingly simple Sword Art seemed to shine with youth in Feng Yun's hands, especially the wooden sword in his hands. From its initial wood color, it had already turned pure black, exuding a strong sense of history.

However, after finishing the set of Sword Arts, Feng Yun's complexion instantly paled, and at the same time, an expression of unwillingness flowed out from his eyes: "The quality of the body, as expected is still unable to keep up, just a little. The basic set of Sword Arts was already unbearable, heaven is unfair."

After speaking, he tidied up the wooden sword, turned around, and walked towards the Feng family.

Feng Yun was a member of the Feng family. He was the son of one of the six elders of the Feng family. Feng Yun's father Feng Luzong was a true talent, when Feng Luzong was 40 years old, he reached the Spirit Gathering Realm and became one of the strongest martial experts in the family.

The Feng family was just a martial arts family in the city of Grey Clouds. Grey Cloud City had over five thousand people, aside from a few travelers, others were related to the Feng family, so the Feng family could be said to be local tyrants.

In the world, martial arts have given birth to an incredible civilization. Tough warriors cultivate to reach the pinnacle of martial arts to do great things like move mountains, dry the sea, or cleave mountains. They can even extend their life indefinitely.

Feng Yun started cultivating from 8 years old, now that ten years have passed, but his cultivation base is still at the early stages of Body Refining 1, this is just trash compared to others his age. Feng Yun was already seen as a disabled person in the family. No matter how much effort Feng Yun put into cultivating, his strength did not increase in the slightest.

But Feng Yun did not give up on cultivation, he had been practicing every day for ten years. After ten years of patience, Although it had not increased its cultivation but Feng Yun desire had become extremely strong, especially his desire to become strong, it was stronger than others his age.

The Body Refinement Realm was divided into Nine Layers, the first 3-layers were forging blood and flesh, the middle 3-layers were forging muscles and bones, the last 3 layers were forging internal organs. After crossing the nine layers of body purification, next enter, introducing more Heaven & Earth Spirit Qi into the body, connecting the entire body with the meridians. At this stage Spirit Qi was stored in the Dantian, thus reaching the next state of being the Spirit Gathering Realm.

As for the realm above Spirit Gathering, Feng Yun did not know how many stages there were. After all, the ruler of the Feng Family was also an expert in the field of Spirit Gathering.

…..

The bright moonlight illuminated the land, covering the quiet little town with a layer of silver.

At this moment, Feng Yun also slowly arrived at his residence. This place was quite secluded, and in the entire Feng family, it was considered a somewhat secluded place.

Steering his sweat-filled body, Feng Yun carefully washed his body, and after dinner, he sat down and took out an old black sword and a wooden box the size of a palm.

Both of them exuded an ancient aura. It seemed like they had never been touched by someone for centuries or millennia.

He mistakenly entered the very old cave where he discovered these two things. He tried to open the box many times, but did not open anything that Feng Yun did. Feng Yun tried to destroy the box with fire, but the box did not even burn. Feng Yun tried to cut it with a sword, but not even a scratch appeared on the wooden box.

He stared at the wooden box for a long time and thought that what was inside …

Since Feng Yun thought the box would not open, he decided to return it.

However, at this moment, a faint light shone from the wooden box. Under Feng Yun's astonished gaze, the wooden box that had never changed for a thousand years actually emitted a dim light, and Feng Yun's blood droplets were absorbed by the wooden box. After absorbing Feng Yun's blood, the light became increasingly brighter.

Click!

A slight sound rang out, and the light became dim until it disappeared and the wooden box opened.

Feng Yun's eyes were now filled with shock and excitement.

There was a small jade bottle inside the wooden box. Feng Yun took out the jade bottle in his hand, he looked at the finger-sized pill in the jade bottle. Feng Yun poured the pill into his palm, it was a deep red pill with four golden lines.

The dark red colored pill suddenly emitted a bright light.

When the pills started to shine, at this moment, Feng Yun felt as if he was standing in front of a vast and boundless ocean. His own body was extremely small, and the terrifying waves carried by the dark red pill with great killing intent that would swallow him whole.

Feng Yun knew clearly in his heart that all of this was an illusion. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and swallowed the pill.

The moment he swallowed the pill, the stifling killing intent had disappeared.

When Feng Yun swallowed the pill, it went straight to his dantian. After that it emitted a golden light, and one of the four golden lines began to disappear. After the golden line was erased, the pill slowly melted slightly, and the size of the deep red pill reduced by a quarter.

The part of the pill that melted into a wave of energy and spread throughout Feng Yun's body.

Feng Yun felt his entire body heat up, as if he was at the mouth of a volcano.

At this moment, severe pain swept through his mind. Feng Yun simply felt like a side hammer was hitting his head violently. The unbearable pain made him almost scream, but he held it back because of his determination.

However, the pain did not lessen for a long time instead becoming worse. Feng Yun was unable to endure the overwhelming pain and fainted.

The energy released by the melted pill made the muscles and organs in his body harden, even his bones had been forged making him sturdier. His blood started to boil and some black slimy liquid came out from his pores.

Feng Yun's skin and muscles were smooth, his skin became whiter and his muscles were slightly prominent. Feng Yun face also changed from before, now he became even more handsome and also gained a toned body.

After a quarter of an hour, the energy vapor was absorbed entirely by Feng Yun's body. Feng Yun woke up. He slowly began to check the changes caused by the pill energy.

Feng Yun discovered that at this moment, his own strength, vital energy, blood, bones, and even meridians had all received an increase level. His cultivation also rose to the 3rd layer of the Body Refining Realm.
