NovelOnlineChapter 859 The Soul Sword Technique
Ruben said. “This initial version of the Legendary Sword Technique is stored in all three major sword sects.
However, very few people are learning it nowadays, and we wouldn't recommend our sect disciples to try it.
Since you are the inheritor of the Heavenly Sword King, | believe it’s only fitting for you to take a look at the
original version, which is the Legendary Sword Technique manuscript you hold in your hands. Furthermore, | have
here a meticulously revised edition of the Soul Sword Technique, which | would also like to present to you.”
Ruben’s action was driven by his concern that Emrys might not be able to master the initial version. Therefore,
he also gifted him the simplified version of the Soul Sword Technique. In this way, even if Emrys couldn't learn
the former, he could still practice the
latter.
Ruben’s actions could be considered extremely sincere.
Emrys looked at him in surprise, asking, “Why are you treatingso kindly?”
Ruben wore a somewhat nostalgic expression, and said, “Back in the day, Lwas nothing more than a destitute
man. If it hadn't been for the intervention of the Heavenly Sword King, | would long have died by the hands of
my enemies. From the moment the

my life. Heavenly Sword King saved me, | secretly vowed to follow him for the rest of Unfortunately, my abilities
were not up to par, and unlike those swordsmanship prodigies, | couldn't accompany the Heavenly Sword King
on his journey through Mount Jacaster.”
The initial Sword King Sect was incredibly powerful, a place that nearly all sword cultivators from Mount
Kushburn aspired to be, hoping to receive guidance from the Heavenly Sword King.
However, during the peak of the Sword King Sect, the Heavenly Sword King made a monumental decision. He
ventured into Mount Jacaster and entered an even more brutal land of cultivation.
At the stime, the Heavenly Sword King also took with him a group of swordsmanship prodigies.
Even though Ruben was currently head of the Soul Sword Sect, he was still a nobody back in the heyday of the
Sword King Sect when geniuses were aplenty. Naturally, he didn’t have the qualifications to follow the Sky
Emperor into Mount Jacaster.
“I don’t blthe Heavenly Sword King, | only blmyself for not being stronger. | understand that with my
skills at that time, even if | had entered Mount Jacaster, | would

have been expendable.” Ruben sighed.
Emrys agreed. “The Heavenly Sword King was indeed impressive. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have
cared about having a few more expendable men by their side.”
“Therefore, | am deeply grateful to the Heavenly Sword King. Ever since Mount Jacaster closed, | devoted myself
to staying within the Sword King Sect, practicing relentlessly. Eventually, | began to see sprogress. Perhaps
to those prodigies who followed the Sword King, this achievement might seem insignificant. But among those
who remained, this is more than enough to securea place of my own.”
“I knew stepping into the realm of Mount Jacaster was hopeless, so | vowed to protect the Sword King Sect and
to guard the legacy of the Heavenly Sword King during my lifetime. Regrettably, the Sword King Sect later
disintegrated. | was powerless to stop it, and could only take charge of a single sect.” Ruben sighed.
Emrys finally understood why Ruben had treated him in such a way. He was unable to repay the Heavenly Sword
King's kindness, so he had no choice but to bestow this sentiment upon Emrys, the heir.
He was indeed a person who believed in repaying kindness.
Emrys’s impression of Ruben had drastically changed.

“I had always been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the Sword King’s heir, but alas...
Suddenly, Ruben’s words cto a halt. He looked at Emrys and let out a bitter laugh, as if he found it difficult
to continue what he was about to say.
He didn’t want to hurt Emrys with his words.
Emrys, however, seemed completely unfazed as he said, “It's a pity that as the heir to the Sword King, I'm
merely in the Energy Cultivation Stage. In Mount Kushburn, I'm regarded as nothing more than a useless entity.
You must have been very disappointed, aren’t you?”
“Let's not put it that way. Since the Sword King chose you, there must be something unique about you.”
Ruben spoke with a complex expression.
He had repeated these words many times over, unsure whether he was trying to comfort Emrys, or merely
consoling himself.

Emrys lowered his gaze and stared at the two sword techniques in his hands, falling deep into contemplation.
A moment later, Emrys spoke up. “Mr. Ruben, take this Soul Sword Technique back, | have no use for it. Also,
could you helpfind a quiet place to practice my swordsmanship? | need to retreat for a few days.”
