"Grandfather.. I am ready to take the Thousand Sword Trial." Said Zhi rhen flatly.
"Hufff...."
"I expected that sooner or later, you'd take that risk.
But what I didn't expect, you're gonna take that exam now." Said San jin who was recovering from his shock.
"Sister....!"
"Can't we wait until we reach the eternal level. After that, we have a great opportunity to obtain a high-level weapon.
After all the teacher only asks us to get a high-level weapon, not a god-level weapon or a holy-level weapon." Said Zhi Yuen who was very worried.
"I know, but there are things I can only do if I get a holy-level weapon." Said Zhi rhen while stroking Zhi yuen's head.
"alright. I get it."
"Grandfather I also want to enter the test of a thousand swords." Said Zhi yuen flatly.
"Yuen'er.the test of a thousand swords is not easy. You'll never make it if you don't have a firm heart." San Jin said to give advice.
"I know cake.. I don't want a holy-level weapon. Even if I get a low-tier weapon, it's enough to make me protect big brother when he manages to obtain a saint-level weapon." Said Zhi Yuen with confidence in his heart.
"All right.! I understand your decision. You two go to that flat stone like the altar. And you may express your desire to take the test of a thousand swords. Grandpa hopes you both can make it." San Jin said proudly.
Zhi rhen and Zhi yuen then walked towards a flat stone. After they stood on the stone, they felt a calmness in their hearts.
"I am Zhi rhen...!! Disciple of Zhu lian from the sky sect. Ready to receive the Thousand Sword Trial."
"I'm Zhi yuen...!! Disciple of Zhu lian from the sky sect. Ready to take the Thousand Sword Trials."
Say Zhi rhen and Zhi yuen Together.
After they say they are ready to take the exam. There was an extremely intense shock and the flat stones that became their footing became sparkling and swept across the world of a thousand swords. Both Zhi rhen and Zhi yuen could only close their eyes.
There was only peace and quiet they felt. As they opened their eyes they saw a vast meadow filled with tens of thousands of logs stuck in the ground.
"Sister.. It seems to be the dimension where the test is done." Zhi Yuen said after opening her eyes.
"Beware Yuen'er, our job now is to find a weapon that suits our hearts." Zhi Rhen advised his sister.
"I am the Sword, I am the Power and I am the Holy God. Lift me up, and we shall rule this world together."
"I'm called a demon murderer. Pull me up and we'll kill every creature the devil has in his heart."
"The world is filled with darkness, and I who am the light can illuminate this world. Lift me up and be a knight who brings hope." Zhi Yuen read the words written on some wood.
"Sister.. This writing seems to shake our hearts. Do we have to lift it.?" Ask Zhi yuen.
"There is no need to rush yuen'er, we must go through all this wood and see a word that suits our hearts." Answer Zhi rhen.
They then walked through all the wood that was stuck in the ground. There was a time when they seemed to think of the words in the wood. But none of them have chosen.
It did not feel like 3 months had passed in the test of a thousand swords. But the two of them have not made their choice.
"Sister.. We've read all the words in all this wood. And most of that wood almost states what's in our hearts. But, grandfather said there is only 1 wood that represents our heart. I have little doubt as to what I would choose." Zhi yuen.
Come... Maybe it's time we made our choice." Zhi Rhen reassured his sister.
"Alright brother.. I'll go to a place where the wood may represent my heart." Said Zhi Yuen while walking south.
"Hmmm... I will also make my choice now." Zhi Rhen said turning towards the north.
"Meeting humans killing humans. Meeting the Devil kills the devil. Meet the god kill the god. Lift me up and kill whoever you want to kill" murmured Zhi Yuen inwardly while holding the wood in front of him.
"No, if I directly give my blood and say my heart. No. gabe.. Can't do.. At least let the older brother choose first." Said Zhi Yuen who was worried.
To the north, Zhi Rhen was standing in front of a log.
"Honestly, I'm a Sword. Honestly, what does the sword mean to you." Zhi Rhen murmured inwardly reading the words that were on the wood.
Zhi Rhen then held the wood and dripped his blood.
"Look south. Some say he's a saint beast, some say he's a demon beast. Some even call him a fox. But no matter, neither he was a demonic beast nor a saint beast. To me he's still my brother Zhi yuen."
"As well as you, it doesn't matter if you're a weapon or a sword. When I lift you up, you'll be my brother-in-arms. Where I am, that's where you are. Because you've become like my own hand." Reveal what Zhi Rhen is like in his heart.
Just then, the ground around Zhi rhen seemed to tremble. The blood that was released seemed to be sucked into the wood.
"Aaggkkk....!!!" Shouted Zhi rhen who was starting to be in pain.
Zhi Yuen who saw the state of her brother in the north became worried.
"Sister....." Shouted Zhi yuen loudly.
"Great, I have to pull this wood and save it." Mumbled Zhi yuen in the heart.
"But, even if I can pull this wood. What can I do, who should I kill." Zhi Yuen said as she trembled holding the wood.
"Everyone says I'm a coward. In the field of battle I was always at the back. I can only give 17 strikes. But I can protect whoever I want to protect." Those were the words that appeared in Zhi Yuen's mind.
Zhi Yuen then removed the wood that was previously held. He continued to run to a wood that was in his memory. Zhi Yuen then bit her hand and then gave her blood to the wood very far away and grasped it.
"I Zhi Yuen really wanted to kill my enemy in order to avenge my mother. However, I will release all the grudges I have to save my brother's life. No need for 17, I just need 1 protection for my brother." Shouted Zhi yuen revealed what was in his heart.
"Aagglkkk....!!! Aaagggkk....!! Shouted Zhi Yuen who was no less sick than Zhi rhen when his blood was sucked on the wood.
There was a tremendous shock when the two of them managed to pull the wood in the test world of a thousand swords. The entire wood trembled as if it wanted to free itself.
Both the Zhi rhen in the north and the Zhi yuen in the south fell to their knees. Not only energy, but their blood essence and soul essence had been absorbed to the point of almost being depleted.
All the wood in the world has freed itself. The tens of thousands of logs that were above the sky turned into swords, spears, hammers and various other weapons that were ready to attack the two of them.
Both Zhi Yuen and Zhi rhen who looked down on their knees looked calm. It was as if a huge flow of energy was trying to recover them.
A blue line symbol like a bolt of lightning appeared in the middle of Zhi rhen's forehead. And in the middle of Zhi yuen's forehead also appeared a red line symbol like a flame.
The two of them then stood up and immediately moved to the center of the world of a thousand swords. The two of them then took a back position to each other. Like a couple protecting each other.
"I'm Ready" said the two simultaneously.
