In the depths of the Ancient Sword Tomb, weren’t there only the persistent thoughts of Sword Cultivators?
Why would there be such a complete soul entity?
"According to your knowledge, I indeed should be classified among ghosts," the woman in white spoke thoughtfully.
Lin Yi felt a chill running down his spine, swallowed hard, and said, "Miss, I’m new here, there should be no grudges between us, right?"
"Why have you sought me out?"
The woman in white revealed a very strange smile, "Because you’re handsome and full of yang energy."
So she’s really a female ghost who preys on yang energy?
There’s such filthy stuff inside the Ancient Sword Tomb?
"Young man, as long as you agree to one thing, I won’t suck your yang energy," the woman in white suddenly offered.
Hearing this, Lin Yi knew the woman in white probably didn’t want to suck his yang energy, but had ulterior motives toward him.
If she really were a yang-sucking female ghost, she would have made her move already, or at least, she would have tried to seduce him, not stand there chatting with him.
However, he wasn’t sure if the woman in white was friend or foe, so he didn’t dare let his guard down, just warily watching her to see what kind of demands she would make.
"I want you to take me away from this godforsaken place," the woman in white stated faintly.
Lin Yi couldn’t help being startled.
The Ancient Sword Tomb was an exceptionally unique Ancient Secret Realm; it was because of this place that these Sword Cultivator Thought Bodies were able to exist, but once they left the Ancient Sword Tomb, these Thought Bodies would lose their anchor and dissipate like smoke.
Thus, the woman in white couldn’t leave the Ancient Sword Tomb unless there was some special method.
"Why do you think I would be capable of taking you away?"
"You have a Chaos Sword Body, capable of absorbing countless swords, naturally, you can also allow me to possess your body," the woman in white said.
Lin Yi’s expression shifted slightly. If he allowed this woman in white to possess him, what if she harbored evil intentions and wanted to seize his body?
Then he would be utterly powerless to resist.
"That’s not possible, I can’t agree to that."
After thinking it over, Lin Yi still felt that he couldn’t agree to the woman in white’s unreasonable request.
The woman in white said, "It doesn’t need to be possession. I can become a Sword Spirit and reside within a sword, which would allow me to leave the Ancient Sword Tomb just the same."
Lin Yi nodded; this option seemed acceptable.
"If you can become a Sword Spirit, why not find someone else? Why specifically me?"
Lin Yi was somewhat baffled.
"Because you’re handsome, is that reason enough?" the woman in white started to get impatient, "For a big man, why are you nitpicking and fussing like a woman?"
"The thing I hate the most in this life is men who are as whiny as women."
"Be more straightforward. Do you agree or not?"
Just as Lin Yi was about to shake his head, he heard the woman in white’s icy voice, "If you dare refuse, I’ll kill you right now."
At the same time, an extremely terrifying pressure released from the woman in white’s body, enveloping Lin Yi and making him feel as if he had fallen into an icy pit!
Every drop of blood in Lin Yi’s body seemed to freeze, and his face showed an expression of disbelief.
This "female ghost" in white, it was very likely that she was once a powerful Sword Saint; otherwise, a mere spiritual body wouldn’t be able to exert such a terrifying pressure.
Lin Yi swallowed back the words he was about to say. What was the point of asking if he didn’t have the choice to refuse?
With no other options, Lin Yi could only draw the Dragon Bone Sword and place it before the woman in white, "This is my personal sword; see if it suits you?"
Unexpectedly, the woman just glanced at the Dragon Bone Sword and shook her head, "This sword is too inferior; it cannot contain my power."
"If I were to reside within it, I fear the sword would shatter into countless pieces in an instant."
Lin Yi frowned, "This is a King-level Treasure Sword, and still, it doesn’t meet your standards?"
"This is the highest-grade sword I carry; the other one I have would probably be even less satisfactory to you."
As he spoke, Lin Yi also took out another sword, the Meteor Sword, and laid it in front of the woman in white.
The Meteor Sword was only of Ghost Level, much lower in rank, not even comparable to the Dragon Bone Sword.
Otherwise, Lin Yi would not have stopped using it.
But at the sight of the Meteor Sword, the woman in white’s beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, "This sword is far stronger than the one before."
A Ghost Level Treasure Sword is stronger than a King-level Treasure Sword?
Could there be a mistake?
"You as a Sword Cultivator lack in cultivation; naturally, you can’t see the difference, but I don’t blame you."
The woman in white looked at Lin Yi as though he was an idiot, and then continued, "This sword, even though it’s only Ghost Level, that’s not indicative of its true power."
"It has fallen to this state because it has lost its Sword Spirit, and the Sword Body has been severely damaged. If it could regain a powerful Sword Spirit, it would recover its former power."
Having said that, the woman in white suddenly transformed into a flicker of light and entered the Meteor Sword.
