Chapter 321: The Underground Passage
🕑 Added 2024-11-03 10:20:23 +0000 UTC"The guards of the forbidden grounds are merely one-star Martial Gods," Liu Yi remarked coldly.
"Sword Spirit, can I now convert this sword to the light attribute?"
Liu Yi glanced at the Ye Fan Sword in his hand and asked.
Although he had easily won the battle just now, he noticed that his arm had been slashed, leaving a wound that was still bleeding.
"No, you can't," Ye Fan replied indifferently.
"Hmm, it seems I have to become a good person in order to change the sword's attribute."
"So, how is 'good' defined?"
Liu Yi pondered.
While holding the sword, his body’s recovery speed was rapid, and soon the bleeding stopped.
"If my heart genuinely turns toward goodness, will the sword immediately change?"
Liu Yi continued muttering to himself.
He attempted to forcefully alter his mindset, trying to show compassion.
But it didn’t work—the sword's abilities did not change.
"It seems it doesn't work that way."
"So, I must truly and sincerely turn toward goodness?"
Liu Yi tried once more, but ultimately gave up.
"This guy... he's the first to attempt changing the sword's attribute," Ye Fan mused silently, watching Liu Yi's efforts.
The distinction between good and evil should depend on the purest reflections of the sword master's heart.
Merely putting on a show wouldn’t cut it.
By now, Liu Yi had already gripped the Ye Fan Sword and continued walking deeper into the forbidden grounds.
"Who dares intrude into the forbidden grounds!"
As Liu Yi pressed forward, he soon saw six warriors guarding the entrance to an underground passage.
"You weaklings are unfit to guard this place," Liu Yi scoffed.
"Haven't you noticed? I just killed the two Martial Gods at the entrance."
The guards were unaware of what had happened at the gate due to the distance from the depths of the forbidden area.
At this moment, the guards drew their swords from their waists.
Whoosh—
As soon as they drew their swords, Liu Yi swung the Ye Fan Sword through the air!
[Nether Flame Soul Slash]!
Instantly, the sword’s skill activated!
A terrifying crescent-shaped white flame shot out!
The guards' eyes widened in shock as they tried to dodge.
Boom—
The crescent-shaped flame struck the door of the underground passage, unleashing a deafening explosion.
The ground was scorched by the white flames.
The six guards, after dodging the attack, were left in awe, their eyes filled with disbelief.
They had not expected Liu Yi's sword to unleash such powerful flames with just a casual swing!
"Where do you think you're going?"
One of the guards, who had just dodged to the other side, suddenly heard a voice behind him.
His pupils contracted as he tried to react, but it was too late—he was cleaved in two!
The remaining guards widened their eyes in horror.
In mere moments, one of their comrades had been slain!
[Killed Martial Saint-level warrior, gained 100,000,000 evolution points]
[Absorbed Martial Saint-level warrior's blood essence, gained 1,000 energy points]
......
As the blood essence was continuously absorbed by the Ye Fan Sword, Liu Yi sneered, "Now it's your turn."
The Ye Fan Sword continued to absorb the blood essence from the freshly killed guard, transferring much of the energy back to Liu Yi.
However, the power of a Martial Saint meant little to Liu Yi now.
"That's... a demonic sword!"
The remaining guards, witnessing the Ye Fan Sword absorbing their comrade's blood essence, were filled with shock and disbelief.
"It doesn't matter what you call it. To me, this is... a divine sword!"
Without waiting for a response, Liu Yi charged at them again with his sword!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The sound of sword slashes filled the air, followed by the spray of fresh blood.
The six forbidden grounds guards, all Martial Saints, were no match for Liu Yi. It was as if he was cutting through vegetables!
In no time, all were slain!
[Killed Martial Saint-level warrior, gained 100,000,000 evolution points]
[Killed Martial Saint-level warrior, gained 100,000,000 evolution points]
......
[Absorbed Martial Saint-level warrior's blood essence, gained 1,000 energy points]
......
System notifications flooded Ye Fan's vision.
"Enough with the notifications!" Ye Fan groaned in frustration.
Killing too many at once brought a flood of notifications.
Especially when absorbing the blood essence, the alerts popped up constantly, cluttering Ye Fan's view.
Even though the evolution points from slaying Martial Saints weren’t as significant, the sheer number of notifications was still irritating.
"The guards at the entrance were one-star Martial Gods, but these inside guards are weaker. How ridiculous."
After Ye Fan Sword finished absorbing all the blood essence, Liu Yi sneered.
He glanced at the underground passage ahead and proceeded inside.
The final destination of this forbidden ground lay beneath the earth!
……
Meanwhile, deep underground, an old man sitting cross-legged in meditation muttered to himself.
"He dares to slaughter my entire sect."
Slowly, he opened his eyes, and from them emanated a terrifying killing intent!
Boom, boom, boom—
As he opened his eyes, the candles around him automatically ignited, filling the entire space with light.
Yet the space felt eerie and sinister.
The ground and walls were lined with white skulls, adding to the macabre atmosphere!
