He opened his hand and saw a sword ball, about the size of a fist, surrounded by an aura of spiritual energy with specks of starlight swirling around it. Upon careful inspection, he could sense robust vitality within, accompanied by faint sounds like breathing and expanding. It was a water-attributed sword ball. Nodding slightly, he tucked it into his sleeve for refinement later.

It must not be shared with anyone else, or you will surely face the sect's wrath!" By the time he spoke the last words, his voice was like thunder, shaking the island so fiercely that the grass and trees quivered under his overwhelming power.
