System Journey to Godhood

Eastern Wilderland was one of the largest inhabited territories in the Eastern Region. It made up almost a quarter of the total area of the Central Part.

In the north, its outskirt became a natural demarcation line between the Central and the Northern part of the continent.

In the east, Eastern Mountain Range stood between the barren Wilderland and grassy plain of the Eastern Part of the Eastern Region.

In the southeast, there was a very famous peak within Eastern Mountain Range which stood tall piercing the cloud like a mighty sword, people called it Sword Peak, where Heaven Sword Sect existed.

Below the mountain, there was an ancient city whose origin was not the least mysterious compared to Eastern Wilderland.

Sword City.

The holy ground for sword cultivators.

Nobody knew since when the city had existed.

The publicly known history stated that the founder of Heaven Sword Sect was the one who built the city to support the sect.

However, for erudite and undying ancestors, this so-called 'history' was only a crude attempt to cover up the truth.

Although Heaven Sword Sect was known as a remnant from the Ancient Era, many experts knew with absolute certainty that the history of the sect was still young, much younger than the city itself.

For those who were privy to the secret of the faraway era, they were at least aware that before Heaven Sword Sect was established, there was a sect called Immortal Sword Sect that mysteriously disappear only leaving its name behind.

There was speculation that the true owner of Sword City was Immortal Sword Sect and Sword City was built for a certain purpose.

As for what its purpose was, nobody knew for certain.

Unlike the older generation, the younger generation didn't care much about the legend and mystery of Sword City. 

They only knew the present glory of Sword City.

This was the city where almost all of the Sword Cultivators in the Eastern Region dreamed to visit at least once in their life.

What made Sword City very attractive to Sword Cultivators was only in this city you could freely discuss, exchange pointers, and do business without minding class or status.

Everybody was equal in Sword City and the only thing that matter was Sword Dao.

This was the charm of Sword City.

"Look, look here this is a middle-grade Earth-rank Snowfall Sword. Come here, come. You won't be disappointed!"

"Selling a set of flying swords, only 5 million gold! This is the last stock! Don't miss it!"

"Tutor for Falling Leaf Sword Art in one week you'll achieve initial success! Guarantee money back!"

Anything related to Sword Dao could be found in this city.

Another reason Sword City became a famous holy ground for Sword City was the architecture of the building within the city.

The house and building looked ordinary but, if it were carefully examined, the exudes a faint but sharp sword intent.

The building somehow had a presence of an unsheathed sword.

This was one of the reasons that some people really believe the theory about Immortal Sword Sects.

If it was not an immortal, who could make a building that was covered with sword intent for who knew how many years?

Only Immortal could achieve such a feat.

Many prominent Sword Cultivators had visited the city to comprehend the Sword Intent, in the hope that they got a deeper insight into Sword Dao.

Sword Grandmasters like Elder Yang, Heaven Sword Sect's Sect Master, "Crazy Sword" Qin Guang from War God Temple, all of those famous figures had a trace of sword intent from this city in their Sword Dao.

It could be said that this city plays a big role in the making of Sword Grandmaster in the Eastern Region.

This is the charm of Sword City.

"Sword City," Snowy sighed in appreciation, her gaze became deep. This city contained some secret that even she didn't know.

"Incredible, right?" asked Feng Xue with a tinge of pride in her tone. 

She had lived for more than a decade in this city so she had considered this city as her second home.

How could she not be proud if even a former goddess like Snowy admired her home?

"Un. It's much better to see it with my own eyes than only read in my record," said Snowy.

"Don't worry Snowy. Together we will see many, many things more in the future."

"Un. Together."

They looked at each other with smiles on their face. With their hand intertwined, they stroll around the city enjoyed the festive mood of the city.

After spending half-a-day to explore the city, Snowy and Feng Xue decided to take a break and had lunch together. 

"Come on, Snowy. Meatbun and Wonton Soup from this place are really delicious! There are also spicy noodles which are my favorite, you should try them too. Even though it isn't as good as your cooking, but the food in this place can be considered as one of the best in Sword City."

"Okay."

Seeing how excited Feng Xue was, Snowy became a little bit curious about the restaurant.

The restaurant was a 2-story building with a big name sign with "Worth Remembrance" written on it hung on the balcony on its second floor. 

Even from outside, Snowy could tell that this restaurant was one of the famous restaurants in the city considering how packed the places were.

The tables on the first floor were almost full while on the second floor a little bit emptier.

Wanted to enjoy their lunch in quieter places, Feng Xue guided Snowy to the second floor. 

After finding the place to sit, they order some food and some wine as companions.

While waiting for their order, Snowy and Feng Xue observed another cultivator around them.

Most of them were young cultivators in the Qi Gathering stage.

It was very likely that they came to participate in Heaven Sword Sect's recruitment examination in three more days.

Feng Xue initially planned to let Snowy join the entrance examination but, considering her cultivation base, Feng Xue change her mind and decided to ask her Master to recommended Snowy to directly become an inner disciple.

Feng Xue was afraid that if she let Snowy join the examination it will eventually lead to a big commotion.

'She was too excellent after all…' Feng Xue sighed inwardly once again.

When they were enjoying their chat, a loud yell came from the first floor startled them.

"You useless thing! How dare you make my dress dirty?! Where is the manager? I want to see the manager!"
