The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1451
Seeing James draw his Blade of Justice, Delainey felt compelled to ask, “Mr. Caden, is that your Blade of Justice?”
“Yep.” James nodded at her.
Delainey glanced at the plain-looking sword in James’ hand. She thought for a while and said, “From what
I understand, this sword is a legendary sword forged by swordsmiths from all over the world during the time of King Quavon.
“The sword is meant to represent absolute and supreme power.
“In ancient times, its wielder could kill without first justifying their actions.
“It’s an exceptional sword. I’ve read records about it in ancient books. After the dynasty collapsed, the sword was lost, and it
eventually ended up with a master swordsmith. The swordsmith was afraid it would fall into a wicked person’s hands and pose a
danger to the world. So, he used special materials to recast the sword and never proceeded with the final refinement.”
“Is that so?”
James was amazed by the information Delainey had shared.
He knew the history of the Blade of Justice but was unaware that it still had a cast around its blade.
Delainey nodded lightly, “Mhm. It’s said to have been cast with unique material to conceal the sword’s true sharpness. However,
I’m not sure about the veracity of this statement. I simply read about it once in an untitled ancient book. It might be fake since if
this sword was the same one from that dynasty, it wouldn’t have become Sol’s Blade of Justice. It would instead belong to
another top martial artist of that time.”
James intently scrutinized the sword in his hand.
It looked just like an ordinary iron sword.
Apart from having a sharp edge, there seemed to be nothing special about it.
He thought for a while and asked, “Does it mention how to get off the cast?”
Delainey replied, “Show me the sword.”

James handed over the Blade of Justice.
Delainey took it, felt its heft in her hands, and inspected its appearance.
The sword was not heavy and was considered light compared to other legendary swords, but it had a slightly thicker blade.
“Hmm... Maybe those stories might be real.”
After inspecting the sword carefully, Delainey said, “A mysterious material is covering the blade of the sword. If I remember
correctly, you’ll need to concentrate True Energy to break the cast covering the sword.”
“Is that so?” James muttered doubtfully.
“Yes, it is. You should give it a try, Mr. Caden.” Delainey passed the Blade of Justice back to James.
James took the sword and activated Heavenly Breath.
His True Yang Energy surged through his meridians and concentrated in his palm, transforming into intense and concentrated
True Energy that shined like golden light.
He released the energy, and the golden light was absorbed into the Blade of Justice.
At that moment, the Blade of Justice glowed brightly, and golden Sword Energy burst forth from it.
However, nothing else happened aside from that.
As James’ True Energy dissipated, the Sword Energy also vanished.
“No, not like that.”
Delainey began to explain, “You’re just pouring your True Energy into the sword and using it as a medium to form Sword
Energies. You must use your True Energy to strike the sword’s own blade.”
Hearing this, James hesitated.
He was unsure of whether his sword could withstand a direct strike imbued with his True Energy.
What if the Blade of Justice broke after one hit?

“Are you sure?” James looked at Delainey. Uncertainty was clearly written on his face.
“I’m quite positive that this is what’s needed to remove the cast.”
“Alright, I’ll trust you since you have faith in this.”
James chose to place his trust in Delainey.
He threw the Blade of Justice into the air, and it floated upwards.
James quickly thrust his palm forward, and a significant amount of True Energy surged forth from it, striking the Blade of Justice.
Clang! Clank! Clang!
The Blade of Justice was unexpectedly sturdy. Even though James was an eighth-ranked grandmaster, his True Energy did not
end up shattering the sword.
His True Energy hit the Blade of Justice, and a crisp sound rang through the air.
A crack began to form on the Blade of Justice after taking several dozen consecutive hits from James.
As the small crack formed, a dazzling Sword Light shone from within the sword.
“T-The cast is about to break open!”
Delainey shouted excitedly.
She stared at the Blade of Justice floating in mid-air.
Was the legendary sword of the millennia about to reveal its true form?!
