Almighty Sword Domain

for a long time before she answered, “I agree.”

“We’re truly on the same side now!” Yang Ye flicked a dagger over to her while he spoke, “You seem to use daggers.
I obtained this by chance, so you can have it.”

A Quasi Emperor Rank dagger! Yun Banqing glanced at it, she didn’t refuse and just took it.

Yang Ye glanced at the surroundings and said, “Wait a while for me.”

He waved his right hand, and then 5 corpses appeared before him.
He’d killed 4 Emperors just now and coupled with the black robed old man he’d killed upon arriving on Sword God Island, he had a total of 5 corpses of Emperors! Even though he could use his sword now, he still intended to refine them into Sword Servants!

It was for safety’s sake!

Yang Ye didn’t start refining immediately, and he recovered his profound energy before starting.

Yun Banqing glanced at him and said, “You really do know how to refine puppets!”

Yang Ye replied, “You knew?”

She nodded slightly, “Based on the information I gathered, you have puppets by your side.
So, I guessed that you might know how to refine them.
But I never expected you to actually know how to do that.
Moreover, they are even Emperor Realm puppets.
There’s a gap in strength between such puppets and actual Emperors, right?”

Yang Ye nodded, “Yes.
They only have around 70% or 80% of a real Emperor’s strength.”

Yun Banqing replied, “That’s still extremely terrifying!”

Yang Ye smiled and didn’t speak further.
He just started concentrating on the refinement.
Just like that, a day passed, and 5 Sword Servants appeared before him.
However, he noticed that these 5 might have reached his limits.
Why? Because refining Sword Servants required control over one’s mental strength.
If the Sword Servants in Doomsday City were included, then he had around 20 puppets.
That was the limit of his current mental strength, and his mind was likely to collapse if he created more.

Of course, if his strength grew, then his mind and soul would grow stronger as well, and he would naturally be able to refine more.
But he couldn’t do it right now.

Yang Ye placed 3 of the Sword Servants in his spatial ring, and he merely left 2 outside.
Just 2 Emperors to deter others was sufficient.
If he didn’t have these 2 Emperors by his side, then countless would target him and Yun Banqing.
He naturally didn’t fear them, but he didn’t want to offend so many and waste time on them!

Just like that, their group of 2 moved deeper into the ruins.

Yun Banqing said, “We should be in the outer area of Sword God’s Palace!”

Yang Ye nodded slightly as he surveyed the surroundings.
Collapsed pavilions covered the area around him, and there were various huge and damaged swords made from unknown metal.

Yun Banqing spoke softly, “I never expected the Sword God’s Palace to be reduced to such a state!”

Yang Ye replied, “If there’s glory, there’ll be decline.
No power is capable of maintaining its brilliance for eternity!”

Yun Banqing gazed at him, “Will the Sword Alliance end up like this?”

“Who knows?” Yang Ye continued, “No one knows what’ll happen in the future.
All we can do is prevent the Sword Alliance from falling into decline right now.
As for the future, we can talk about it in the future.
Thinking too much about it would make life meaningless.”

Yun Banqing said, “You have quite a good mindset!”

Yang Ye smiled and was about to speak, but his expression suddenly changed.
He grabbed Yun Banqing and stopped moving.
At the same time, a circle of light suddenly arose about 30m around them.
After that, a moment of silence ensued before countless rays of sword energy suddenly erupted from the circle of light.
The rays of sword energy were extremely swift, and they instantly arrived before Yang Ye and Yun Banqing.

Yang Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly as he raised his right hand.
In an instant, those rays of light stopped moving, and then Yang Ye waved his hand lightly.
The rays of light and the circle of light around them vanished.

Yun Banqing clearly heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Quasi Emperors would be courting death by coming here.
Even Emperors might perish from the slightest mistake.”

Yang Ye nodded.
Those rays of light from before were absolutely not something that Quasi Emperors could resist.

They continued forward.
It didn’t take long for them to arrive at a circular pool.
It wasn’t large and only occupied an area of around 50m.
Silver water rippled throughout the pool.

Yun Banqing pointed towards the side, “Look over there!”

Yang Ye looked along the direction she pointed at, and he noticed a damaged stone tablet not too far away from the pool.
There were 3 characters on it ‘洗剑池’!

“A sword cleansing pool?” Yang Ye frowned a little.
He pondered deeply for an instant before casually tossing a Saint Rank sword into the pool.
A moment of silence ensued, and then the sword started to ripple violently.
In next to no time, Yang Ye watched with astonishment as a ray of dazzling light suddenly erupted from the sword, and then the sword started to float up slowly into the air.

Yang Ye gestured at it, and the sword flew into his grasp.
Yang Ye was instantly shocked when he saw it.
Because while it was still at the Saint Rank, it was clearly much sharper than before.
Besides that, it felt completely different.
Previously, the sword was like an ugly woman with disheveled hair and a dirty face, yet now, it seemed like a peerless beauty that was all dressed up!

Yang Ye’s gaze descended onto the pool and said, “Sword cleansing… sword cleansing….
It cleanses the impurities within a sword, allowing it to grow purer! What a treasure! The Sword Alliance just happens to need it!”

Yang Ye didn’t hesitate to wave his right hand and take the entire pool.

“How dare you!” Suddenly, a voice resounded before a strand of ghastly cold light flashed by.
After that, a sword was pressed against the center of Yang Ye’s forehead.
