Chapter 724: The Unsealed Sacred Fire Sword
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ordinary warriors might not be able to tell anything from this. But Nangong Mingzhu was a true immortal cultivator and naturally knew the difference between Deified Soul Power and ordinary Soul Power.
Mo Wen had Deified Soul Power, and this was something very odd and shocking. It was beyond her range of comprehension.
Generally speaking, there was only one way for this situation to occur to a warrior. It would only happen if an immortal cultivator with a primordial soul took over the body of a warrior.
However, an immortal cultivator who could take over the body of a warrior was usually an existence beyond the Primordial Soul Realm. Would such a powerful character take over the body of an ordinary warrior? It probably would not be difficult to take over the body of an immortal cultivator in the Primordial Soul realm. It was practically impossible to take over the body of a warrior unless it was under special circumstances.
Had Mo Wen’s body been taken over by an immortal cultivator who had high levels of cultivation? Nangong Mingzhu did not think that was likely, no matter how she looked at it. The possibility of that happening was close to zero. But since he had not had his body taken over by a powerful immortal cultivator, then where did Mo Wen get his Deified Soul Power?
Nangong Mingzhu was filled with curiosity. Her gaze, as she looked upon Mo Wen, had a trace of shock in it. This human youth seemed more and more mysterious to her.
The enormous body of the Dragon Beast King fell into the sea. The human warriors immediately cheered. The end of the first battle had filled them with confidence for what would come next. Even though the Dragon Beast King was the weakest of the three great mythical beasts, the human warriors still had Mo Wen whose power was unfathomable.
A terrifying whirlpool of starlight rose from the sea and it surged into the air, surrounding Mo Wen. Some of the starlight flew towards Nangong Mingzhu. Only a small portion of the starlight flew towards the other 20 human warriors.
Mo Wen’s cultivation rose as the starlight tunneled into him. It rose at a level that he could feel. This increase was even more dramatic than the first. The cloud of light formed by the Dragon Beast King was massive.
Mo Wen had chosen to kill a mythical beast to raise his cultivation level. The higher their cultivation, the higher their chances of defeating the Dragon Horse.
Mo Wen sensed his cultivation more than double in mere moments. A whirlpool of black light shone from him, releasing a terrifying cold. The Nine Yin Cold Qi right now had already reached a terrifying stage.
Because of the spread of the cold Qi, the surrounding ten-thousand-meter radius around the sea froze. And the hundred-meter waves froze in the air. It was as if they had stopped in time. The warriors standing around Mo Wen shivered in the cold. They could not bear the horrifying cold even with their cultivation levels. Furthermore, the cold Qi was not meant for them, or it would have been even worse.
“What strong cultivation.”
Nangong Mingzhu breathed in deeply. Mo Wen’s cultivation had completely surpassed hers by a significant amount. Even though her cultivation had increased through the defeat of the Dragon Beast King, it had not increased as much as Mo Wen’s had.
Light shimmered in the sky and 25 balls of light were suspended in the air. They shone brightly and immediately attracted the attention of the human warriors.
Mo Wen waved his hand and the 25 balls of light appeared in front of him. The human warriors staring at the balls of light all swallowed and watched as Mo Wen kept the treasure lights. However, in the end, no one dared to say anything.
Mo Wen glanced at the treasure lights. There were quite a few items that the Dragon Beast King had released. There were 25 of them: it was quite the record.
Most of the lights in the balls were light tools, of which 15 were superb-grade healing lights. That was probably more than were currently in the possession of the human warriors who were present. A Dragon Beast King alone had given Mo Wen so many superb-grade healing lights.
There was no joy in Mo Wen’s eyes. Instead, his expression turned grave. After such a long time in combat, he had some understanding of the rules in this game of death. The treasure from killing demonic beasts would not appear for no reason. Instead, the Tower spirit would give them treasures beneficial to them according to their situation.
For example, the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem was a power that the Tower Spirit had intentionally given to human warriors. Now that so many superb-grade healing lights had appeared, it meant that they would definitely have use for them soon. Why would they have use for them? There could only be one possibility. Their next opponent must be very powerful, and a large number of warriors would get injured and could possibly die. These superb-grade healing lights had appeared in order to maintain the balance.
Mo Wen sighed. Even though they had killed the Dragon Beast King, he feared that they might not be able to win in the end. He and Nangong Mingzhu glanced at each other. They could both see the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
Other than the 15 balls of superb-grade healing light, there were five superb-grade recovery lights, one unsealing light, and four semi-finished spiritual talismans.
Mo Wen waved his hand and five superb-grade healing lights, two superb-grade recovery lights, and two semi-finished spiritual talismans flew towards Nangong Mingzhu, stopping in front of her. He kept the rest for himself. These things would only be able to be used to their greatest potential when they were kept by the most powerful people. It would be a waste to give it to anyone else. The rest of them could only defeat the strongest opponents with the two strongest humans around.
It might be a little cold, but Mo Wen did not care at all if one or two human warriors died. The life and death of others had nothing to do with him. As long as they could win in the end, and save the lives of some of them, then it would be to his credit.
He looked at the superb-grade unsealing light in his hand. This thing was useless to him because he did not have any more top-grade profound level weapons or treasures of the rank above. The item was useless but it was a waste to discard it Logically speaking, the Tower Spirit would not have given them a useless item.
Mo Wen had a sudden thought and he waved his arm. Seven balls of flames suddenly flew out from his sleeves and assembled to form the Sacred Fire Sword.
He had conjectured that the Sacred Fire Sword was a treasure of the immortal cultivation world. It could even be a spiritual treasure. However, it had been sealed and Mo Wen had been unable to unleash its power. The sealed Sacred Fire Sword was the only item he had that he could possibly use the superb-grade unsealing light on. He wanted to try it, and see if the Tower Spirit was willing to help him unseal the Sacred Fire Sword.
There was a flash of silver light. The light wrapped around the Sacred Fire Sword. Then, the Sacred Fire Sword released an unusual aura.
“Is it really working!” There was a flash of joy in Mo Wen’s eyes. It would be great if he could unseal the Sacred Fire Sword. Furthermore, he did not think that the unsealed Sacred Fire Sword would return to its sealed state again. That meant that the Sacred Fire Sword would be completely different when they left this place.
The silver light slowly steeped into the Sacred Fire Sword. Runes appeared one after another over the Sacred Fire Sword. The runes had not been there for long before they each started to shatter. As more and more runes shattered, the Sacred Fire Sword released an extremely terrifying power. The power was like the rolling waves of the sea as it rushed at Mo Wen, layer after layer. He could almost not withstand it, even with his current cultivation level.
A swish of a sword covered the entire space. The Sacred Fire Sword flew into the air and turned into a thousand-mile long flaming dragon. It had a camel’s head, deer antlers, a snake’s body, tiger claws and eyes of a turtle. It took the shape of an ancient divine dragon.
The roars of the dragon rang in the air, causing the sea to shake turbulently. The dark clouds that had been torn by the powerful battle gathered in the sky once more. Rain fell upon them heavily, and lightning buzzed and thunder rumbled in the clouds. The unsealed weapon gathered the clouds and brought rain. It was a power that legends say belonged to divine dragons.
“How powerful. Is it another superb grade profound level weapon?” Nangong Mingzhu looked at the flaming divine dragon in the sky. Her eyes narrowed. She could sense a strong power from the flaming divine dragon. The power was no weaker than a superb-grade profound level weapon, and was even significantly more powerful than an average superb-grade profound level weapon.
“Indeed...!” Mo Wen looked at the ancient divine dragon that had evolved from the Sacred Fire Sword. The Tower Spirit had really helped him to unseal the power of the Sacred Fire Sword. However, it seemed to have only unsealed a portion of the Sacred Flame Sect’s power and had allowed the Sacred Fire Sword to become a superb-grade profound level weapon. If it had been completely unsealed, it probably would not be a profound level weapon, but would be a legendary spiritual treasure instead.
“That’s weird. Why is that sword rather familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere before.” The second grand elder of the Ming Temple, Wang Changhan, looked up into the sky under the Four Guardians Light Shroud. There was a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. He seemed to have seen the sword in Mo Wen’s hands somewhere before. However, he could not recall where that might have happened. The power of the sword was really terrifying. Even though there was the Four Guardians Light Shroud, Wang Changhan could not help but shudder at the aura the sword gave out. It seemed extremely powerful.
Puff!
Wang Changhan was still thinking where he had seen the long sword before. But before he could think any deeper, his face suddenly paled and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body shook as a powerful force crashed into him, almost tossing him into the air.
Fortunately, the powerful force had not been meant for him but for all the human warriors in the Four Guardians Light Shroud. Otherwise, he would definitely have died in mere moments.
“Don’t be distracted.” a voice yelled from afar. It was Granny Jin Hua who was sitting cross-legged in the center. The human warriors in the Four Guardians Light Shroud went on their guard. Everyone was trying hard to spur the Four Guardians Light Shroud into defending them against the terrifying Dragon Horse Beast King.
Wang Changhan harrumphed coldly and glanced at Granny Jin Hua. Mo Wen had called the Golden Dragon Sect and the other four factions to his side for a reason. The Four Guardians Light Shroud had been separated into two from within. One covered the warriors within the area covered by the Four Guardians Stratagem Flags while the other covered the warriors outside.
The warriors within the area covered by the Four Guardians Stratagem Flags had it rather easy. They only had to keep channeling power into the stratagem. The Dragon Horse Beast King’s power had no way of entering the area. However, it was more difficult for those on the outside of the stratagem. They not only had to channel their power into the stratagem at all times, but they also had to bear the brunt of the shocks that had occurred due to the Horse Dragon Beast King struggling.
If they did not have a large number of Healing lights, many would have died due to the force of the shocks. Even so, there were a few people whose cultivation levels were too low, and they had been killed.
