The Tale of the Devil Sword

[Let's see the memory of this weapon first.]

After thinking for a moment he decided to use his soul to check the weapon's memory.

It's not easy to check a weapon's memory. Even if a weapon doesn't have a spirit, a higher ranked weapon is still an intelligent being that can feel emotions of their wielder.

They make sure the wielder is trustworthy before they allow the wielders to check their memories.

Why?

Because higher ranked weapons have existed since long time. That meant they have variety of knowledge, cultivation techniques and other things.

Every weapon has different goals. Some wish to be a Hero for the public. Some just want to gain strength.

If such knowledge, the wielder used against the weapon's wishes, it would become difficult for the weapon to curb the owner.

That is why they need to see if the wielder is trustworthy.

But gaining trust is just one of the ways. Another is to threaten the weapon and it works only if the weapon is either too naive or a coward to succumb to the threat.

Or maybe prepare a deal and use each other. But this type of bonding doesn't last long because the weapons threatened will find every chance to escape from the wielder or might even betray in critical situations.

And for the weapons procured through greed, they will leave you once their objectives are fulfilled.

Of course there are ways to prevent that. That is to threaten them and it leads to the same situation.

In his previous life he had a 175cm long odachi as his weapon.

The odachi he had was one of the rare heavenly treasure. It took him almost six years to gain complete trust, knowledge and memories of his weapon.

But it also took Odachi six years to gain Kylo's trust.

They used to converse like normal partners, but they never trusted each other.

In fact one of the major reason he became the emperor of devil race was because of the knowledge of the heavenly treasure. Do not look down on these heavenly weapon's knowledge since these weapons existed for a long time.

He got many cultivation techniques, blacksmith technology, formation knowledge and many other

information from the odachi.

He used this information to strengthen his subordinates. His knowledge about the universe was far more than many other so called 'ancient beings' in his world.

But right now he does not need to threaten or make deal with the sword.

Why?

Because he already has become the spirit of weapon.

[And why would I make a deal or threaten my own body?] Kylo chuckled at his thought.

He then used his soul to pry the memories of the sword but before he could go further he was blocked by black miasma.

[Ahh... this miasma] Kylo suddenly had a realisation. Why the qi he was feeling was same but little different.

[I was also feeling the miasma along with other energies.]

He then checked further and he was stunned by what he saw. There was a huge formation inside the sword, which was blocked by the miasma.

This was the place where Kylo was feeling the miasma energy.

[This is new… To not have the permission to check the memories despite being a spirit.

Was this claymore a celestial weapon or something?]

Yes the sword he was residing in was a claymore whose blade length was 110 cm, total length being 130 cm.

Even though he was a little frustrated he decided not to dwell on it too much. He has too many

important things to do than to dwell on the memories of the claymore.

He used his {soul sense} once again to check the cave and he was surprised by what he saw.

If he used {soul sense} by using his own energy he can only go as far as 20 kms for now. But he was using primordial energy and he could use {soul sense} for more than 100km radius but still the cave showed no signs of ending.

"This doesn't make sense." Kylo murmured to himself.

Indeed nothing was making sense to him.

[How could I use {Soul Sense} over such a large area and why was this cave so big?

Wass this some inheritance ground? Or a space dimension of a higher being?

Even for an emperor like me space dimension was a luxury so this might either be an inheritance ground or an ancient tomb

Whatever it is, for now there is no danger. Guess I am the only 'living being' around 200 kms.

Alright let's check this claymore little more.]

Previously when he used soul he was just doing it in a hurry, right now since he already checked there was no danger he decided to check more on the claymore since this was practically him right now.

"Hoh"

[Even though I knew it when I saw the miasma but it's still astounding. The formation is a demonic

formation and the person who did this is definitely stronger than the peak me.

I cannot gauge his strength but that person is definitely a lot lot stronger than me.]

Kylo continued to observe the formation while thinking in his mind

[Seriously I can't even transmigrate peacefully… wait is this even transmigration? Whatever...

Let's see, let's see, let's see... even if the person was stronger than me he was definitely a fool… more foolish than my subordinates, why wouldn't he hide the formation but let it keep floating above the miasma.

Did he seriously think nobody is stronger than him in this universe!?]

"whatever it's good that being was a fool making it easier for me…"

[Hmmm whatever this miasma is, does it stand a chance against primordial energy?]

At this moment kylo remembered what the holy emperor did.

He first controlled the primordial energy by circulating it around the hilt of the claymore.

Controlling the primordial should be very difficult. Because it is not the cultivators who choose the primordial energy but Primordial Energy who chooses the cultivators.

They only let the cultivators who they deem worthy to use the energy.

But for some reason Kylo can control the energy of every corner around the cave here.

Kylo slowly bought the primordial energy inside the 130cm long sword through the hilt to the formation at the tip of the sword.

The holy emperor had fused the qi and mana…

[Since that bastard can do it, why can't I?]

Just when he thought he was about to succeed the miasma inside the sword reacted.
