Chapter 418 – King of War

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The General Appointing Platform forgot about the past. It only remembered that when its consciousness was born, it was already in the hands of Lin Jiufeng.

At that time, its consciousness was extremely weak. It might not even be comparable to the Light of the Homes because it had suffered extremely serious injuries. Its consciousness had always been in a deep sleep.

The Light of the Homes was something that accompanied Lin Jiufeng’s growth. In the early stages of its birth, it had always been absorbing the lights of the mortal realm. At that time, the General Appointing Platform was still in a deep sleep.

Later on, after Lin Jiufeng set up a huge array in the imperial capital and killed hundreds of Immortal Kings, he himself also died. His consciousness entered the Death Realm, and his body was left in the Primal Chaos Array Formation. At that time, the General Appointing Platform, the Light of the Homes, and the Sword of the Holy Church were all left in the array formation.

It was at that time that the General Appointing Platform slowly recovered its consciousness. It absorbed the residue energy in the array formation created by the battle and woke up. Moreover, countless scenes of the past era appeared in its mind.

Then, Lin Jiufeng set off from the Death Realm and headed for the Spell Realm. Then, he returned to the mortal realm from the Spell Realm and found back his top magic treasures like the General Appointing Platform, the Light of the Homes, and the Sword of the Holy Church. The General Appointing Platform was placed in Lin Jiufeng’s spiritual consciousness then and had been silently repairing its injured consciousness.

Until now.

After arriving in this mysterious valley, the General Appointing Platform suddenly felt that it had been awakened. It sensed that there was an enemy ahead of it.

Countless scenes of the past flashed in its mind. It vaguely remembered this mysterious valley, so it awakened on its own and came out of Lin Jiufeng’s body.

“Have you remembered anything?” Lin Jiufeng looked at the General Appointing Platform and asked softly.

The General Appointing Platform shook its body slightly. It didn’t remember much. Its memories were still chaotic. Scenes still flashed one after another, but it couldn’t organize any specific memories.

The General Appointing Platform looked at the sword in the shape of a human face and asked, “My memories of the past have suffered heavy losses. Since you address me as Lord, then tell me about what I’ve done in the past.”

Lin Jiufeng also looked at the sword in the shape of a human face. He was very curious about the past of the General Appointing Platform.

The longsword in the shape of a human face stared at the General Appointing Platform and asked, “Lord, do you really not remember anything?”

The General Appointing Platform was silent.

“Countless years ago, you were once one of the Kings here. You led us to guard a region and look for the path of weapon evolution. You wanted to make us become like the cultivators of the mortal realm and rely on our own efforts to surpass the boundary of magic treasures and reach a higher realm.” The sword in the shape of a human face explained tirelessly.

“But the good times didn’t last long. In that period of time, some changes happened here. An unprecedented war affected us. Back then, the King Lords here made different choices. Some fell silent, some fought, and some surrendered…” The longsword sighed.

“So the General Appointing Platform belongs to the side that fought, right?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Lord General Appointing Platform chose to fight and go to the mortal realm to resist that unprecedented catastrophe. Many weapons followed him. At that time, I was still very weak. I was in charge of guarding this place and guarding the evolutionary technique created by Lord General Appointing Platform and other divine weapons of infinite wisdom.”

“Since then, countless years have passed. There’s no sun or moon in this valley, no time. No one knows how many years have passed at all. This place has become a transcendent-like world.”

“As Lord General Appointing Platform led the other divine weapons out to fight, the remaining us were besieged by the enemies of Lord General Appointing Platform. We suffered heavy losses. We were driven to the outer area and guarded this small area, struggling to maintain the last of our forces.”

“To this day, most of my former companions and former comrades have already died sadly. Lord General Appointing Platform brought away most of the divine weapons. Although those of us that left behind had powerful energy, we are unable to withstand the damage caused by the passing of time. The pieces on the ground are all our former brothers and sisters. They no longer have their own consciousness now. The weapons themselves have long rotted. Perhaps, after some time, I will also follow them.”

The longsword in the shape of a human face sighed slightly. It looked at the General Appointing Platform. Its eyes were no longer as fanatical and firm as before. There were only complicated emotions.

In the past, it was a firm supporter of the General Appointing Platform.

But with the departure of the General Appointing Platform, the remaining days had been very tragic. Many people wondered if the General Appointing Platform’s decision to participate in the war back then was too hasty.

Those divine weapons that chose to stay in this valley silently were still living well.

Hence, the sword in the shape of a human face had complicated feelings towards the General Appointing Platform.

“Did you recognize the General Appointing Platform from the beginning?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Yes, I recognized Lord General Appointing Platform, but I thought that after so many years, Lord General Appointing Platform might have long died. I just wanted to test if it’s real or fake.” The human-faced sword directly admitted.

The General Appointing Platform remained silent throughout. It was recalling the stories told by the sword in the shape of a human face. Some intermittent pictures were suddenly connected, and the General Appointing Platform remembered some things from the past.

“I was a King here!”

“This valley is called the Weapon Armory Valley!”

“There are divine weapons left behind from countless eras stored or buried here. The magic treasures that once shocked the world and the powerful weapons that once shone for an era are all here!”

The General Appointing Platform recalled the scenes in its memory. The aura on its body suddenly doubled. It rumbled and let out a sound that belonged to itself.

The round-faced sword’s eyes lit up. It looked at the General Appointing Platform in surprise and murmured, “Has the once invincible King Lord returned?”

“I remember some of the previous scenes, but I haven’t remembered them all,” the General Appointing Platform said honestly.

He looked at the longsword in the shape of a human face and sighed. He said, “Although I don’t remember the decision to participate in the war at that time, it was my own choice after all. You have guarded this place for all these years. How have you stored the information regarding the direction of the evolution of the magic treasures that we studied back then?”

The longsword in the shape of a human face now had a tragic appearance, and its group of companions who had once followed it had long been buried under time. As the General Appointing Platform looked at this scene, a trace of guilt appeared in its heart.

“The information is here, I’ve kept them well. Although the few terrifying existences in the center of the valley want to obtain this information, I’ve stored all the information in my sword body. As long as they use force, I will shatter myself and make the information turn into smoke and disappear with me.” The sword in the shape of a human face explained everything that he had encountered over the years in an ordinary manner.

Lin Jiufeng looked at it with quite a bit of admiration.

It sealed the information in its own body and threatened to perish together with the information if anyone tried to obtain the information forcefully.

This caused the terrifying existence in the center of the valley to be furious, but they were helpless against it.

This was also the reason why the sword in the shape of a human face could safely survive here.

Those terrifying existences in the center of the valley didn’t want him to die, but they also wouldn’t give him a chance to strengthen himself. As long as it was still alive, that information would exist in its body.

“This is called the Weapon Armory Valley? Why have you guys come here?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“Many terrifying existences’ magic treasures were once buried here. Although some of them were damaged at that time, there were still top existences who gave birth to their own consciousness and survived here. Then, many magic treasures came here one after another, turning this valley that is free from the control of the mortal realm into a world that belongs to the magic treasures and weapons.” The General Appointing Platform answered Lin Jiufeng’s question.

“Why did you return this time, Lord General Appointing Platform?” The longsword in the shape of a human face asked.

There was a trace of hope in his eyes. He hoped that the General Appointing Platform could return to the valley and lead them to rise again.

But the General Appointing Platform didn’t answer. Instead, it looked at Lin Jiufeng.

The General Appointing Platform at this moment was no longer the General Appointing Platform that once reigned supreme here. Instead, it belonged to Lin Jiufeng.

The human-faced sword also looked at Lin Jiufeng with a trace of doubt and disdain.

“The peak of the Immortal King Realm isn’t a top existence in this valley. You can’t even defeat me, but you can decide the fate of Lord General Appointing Platform. What a joke.” The human-faced sword mocked Lin Jiufeng ruthlessly.

Lin Jiufeng shrugged indifferently. “You are an Immortal Emperor and your realm is very powerful, but don’t underestimate me. You have to thank me for being able to come here and letting you see the General Appointing Platform.”

If Lin Jiufeng didn’t come here, the General Appointing Platform would never have come out. The sword in the shape of a human face would also continue to be trapped here.

The sword that was in the shape of a human face wanted to continue saying something. It was an Immortal Emperor-level weapon, so it naturally didn’t fancy Lin Jiufeng, who was only at the peak of the Immortal King Realm.

But before it could continue speaking, a cold aura flew over from afar, as if a sharp sword was pressed against their backbones.

Even Lin Jiufeng felt this cold aura.

“Here comes trouble!” The longsword in the shape of a human face no longer cared about Lin Jiufeng’s strength. Instead, it stared at the depths of the valley and shouted in alarm.

Lin Jiufeng’s expression was incomparably solemn. He looked at the sword in the shape of a human face and asked, “What is this?”

This aura was like an incomparably cold, eerie, and terrifying killing intent that slowly entangled in his bones, making one feel as if they had fallen into an icehouse. It was extremely terrifying.

Lin Jiufeng instantly understood. A terrifying existence was walking out from the depths of the valley.

Da da da!

Not long after, a tall figure walked over step by step in the center of the valley. His footsteps landed on the ground, emitting a crisp sound as if he was wearing a pair of glass shoes.

At the same time, the sound of weapons grinding against the ground came. On a closer look, he was dragging an incomparably long war sword in his hand, and there was a deep cold light that seemed to be able to pierce the sky.

This tall figure dragged an incomparably huge war sword. He was calm and composed as if everything was under his control. He walked over from afar and slowly appeared from the shadows. First his feet, then his legs, and then his abdomen. His face was always hidden in the shadows, so Lin Jiufeng couldn’t see him clearly.

But although his face couldn’t be seen clearly, the divine light in his eyes was even more sharp and terrifying than the war sword he was holding. It shot out, shattering the space in front of him into primal chaos. He swept through the chaos and walked in front of Lin Jiufeng.

“No one has come to the Weapon Armory Valley for a long time. Although the strength of an Immortal King Realm is very weak, you can be considered to have some strength. You actually brought back the former King Lord, the General Appointing Platform. Brat, I can grant you an intact corpse. Thank the King of War for the reward.” This tall figure spoke from the shadows with incomparable confidence and even an arrogant tone.

Slowly, he walked out of the shadows and stood in front of Lin Jiufeng and the sword in the shape of a human face.

His face had no facial features. He wore an iron mask that covered all parts other than his eyes. Only cold killing intent could be seen in his cold eyes.

Moreover, Lin Jiufeng focused his attention and discovered that this tall figure in front of him wasn’t made of flesh and blood, but a virtual person condensed from pure consciousness.

“King of War, didn’t you always live in seclusion in the depths of the valley? Why did you come to this periphery?” The longsword in the shape of a human face cried out in surprise as it looked at the tall phantom in front of it in disbelief.

Its tone was filled with fear. Clearly, even with its strength at the Immortal Emperor Realm, it didn’t dare to be impudent in front of this tall phantom.

“The reason why I didn’t kill you is that you aren’t worthy of my attention. Although the secret of the evolution of magic treasures is very important, the General Appointing Platform is the most important. In the past, I didn’t come to the periphery because there was nothing worthy of me descending. You and the secret of the evolution of magic treasures aren’t worthy of me coming. But the General Appointing Platform is different. Now that he has returned, I naturally have to come and welcome him.” The King of War said to the sword in the shape of a human face in a disdainful tone. He didn’t take it seriously at all. His eyes stared at the silent General Appointing Platform the entire time.

“The former King, a terrifying existence that suppressed an era, and a King that existed alongside top magic treasures like the Immortal Monument, the Great Millstone of Destruction, the Death Spear, and the Primal Chaos War Spear. Welcome back to the Weapon Armory Valley.” The King of War used a welcoming tone to say these words filled with cold killing intent.

At the same time, the war sword in his hand also flickered with a dazzling light, illuminating the surrounding darkness. A terrifying force burst out domineeringly, constantly flickering. In the end, it transformed into a surging existence that surged into the tall phantom, causing its figure to become even larger.

It was only at this moment that Lin Jiufeng understood the relationship between this tall phantom and the terrifying war sword. The war sword was the more important part.

The war sword surged with power and condensed a tall phantom. It transformed into a human form to represent itself and said those words.

He stared at the General Appointing Platform, not placing Lin Jiufeng and the human-faced sword in his eyes at all.

“The name ‘King of War’ is very familiar. I vaguely remember it, but I can no longer remember you!” The General Appointing Platform said coldly.

The King of War’s tone was angry. “Am I actually not worthy of having any memories in your eyes?”

“Lord General Appointing Platform, you are still as confident and arrogant as ever!” The King of War said through gritted teeth.

“Those things that aren’t worthy of me remembering won’t have memories left in me. You aren’t worthy of using the name of King of War. You can’t bear the title of the King of War at all. You should return it to the original person.” On the General Appointing Platform, the aura suddenly surged. Its tone was aggressive as if it had recalled something. It said coldly to the King of War.

Lin Jiufeng blinked. He looked at the King of War in front of him and suddenly understood.

It turned out that he wasn’t the original King of War. Instead, he inherited the title of the King of War. Or perhaps, he stole the title of the King of War.

Hence, the General Appointing Platform looked down on him from the bottom of its heart.

The reason why this King of War was the first to rush out of the center of the valley was that he wanted to obtain the recognition of the General Appointing Platform and admit that he was the King of War.

Unfortunately, the General Appointing Platform, which no longer had a clear memory of the past, recalled some of the past after looking at him.

“The King of War in my mind is an indomitable existence, a supreme king who can stir up endless wars and also disperse these wars. You are just a clown who stole the title of others. You used the name of the King of War and also condensed the phantom of the King of War. In essence, you are just a clown. You still can’t change anything after so many years. The name of the King of War is too heavy for you to inherit!” The General Appointing Platform rebuked bluntly.

“Shut up!!!”

The King of War who had stolen another person’s title roared in anger..
