Du Shixun glanced at Zhang Yan, and upon receiving his permission, took the sword for inspection. He noticed the sword's sharp edge, not to mention the blood light that glimmered back and forth, indicating the sword had drunk its fill of blood. The murderous aura pierced his eyes with pain. It was a rare weapon, which led him to exclaim with a spark in his eyes, "Good sword!"
Zhang Yan chuckled lightly, removed the scabbard, and handed it to Du Shixun. He said, "If fellow Daoist Du likes it, I'll give it to you."
This Dharma Sword was obtained from a Blood Essence Sect elder during the Sixteen Sects Sword Competition. Although not a Supreme Treasure, it possessed the ability to capture souls. When Jin Ling Old Man was beheaded by it, his Primordial Spirit was sucked into the sword, never to escape.
Zhang Yan had several such swords in his possession and seldom used them, so he gave it away without a second thought.
