Chapter 74: Netherworld Sword (1/2)

If the Spirit King was in the outside world, it would be able to easily sweep through Awakened Soul Cultivators.Even being suppressed by the ancient tomb, it was still a hard to defeat existence.

But Chu Tian had defeated it with a single punch!

Yun Yao was shocked speechless, in this world there were certain natural born individuals who had the ability to awaken two source spirits, these kinds of people were an one in a billion kind of rare.

But having twin source spirits wasn’t always a good thing!

Because the potential of a person’s soul was limited, sometimes it was barely enough to nurture one source spirit, let alone two.

Source spirits represented a cultivator’s talent, better to be strong than for there to be more, better to be refined than to be varied.

A strong source spirit could split apart, and can turn into two ordinary source spirits, but that would be a loss rather than a gain.

Chu Tian’s two source spirits, whether it was the sword source spirit or the shadow source spirit that just appeared, both of them were top class source spirits, particularly that shadow source spirit that had the strength of a demon god.Because of his cultivation, it was not very clear, but it was at least at the level of a God Level Source Spirit!

He had overdrawn his body strength by summoning his source spirit!

Chu Tian was incredibly weak, he took out the Yuan Essence Grass and swallowed a piece of it.

But it was truly terrifying, if not for Yun Yao using the Thunder Spirit Bead to help weaken the Spirit King, if not for Mo Yan launching a sneak attack to distract the Spirit King, if not for Chu Tian being able to use the Mind’s Eye and finding the weak spot of the Spirit King.

Would it have been this easy?

The Spirit King left behind a large spirit core, the spirit core’s surface was covered in blue white flames.

“Fire Seed?”Mo Yan’s face filled with disappointment, “Originally I thought there would be a mature Netherworld Flame, but who would have thought that the Netherworld Flame would already have been refined by the Spirit King.The difficulty in cultivating a Fire Seed is too high and would require large amounts of time and energy!”

Spirit Fires were not cultivation law weapons, nor were they cultivation techniques.

But it was like a cultivation law weapon and it was like a cultivation technique.

Spirit Fires could be directly used, they would instantly increased the user’s strength, but Spirit Fire Seeds needed to be slowly cultivated, the entire process would require massive amounts of resources and time, just like training a cultivation technique.

The ancient grave no longer had a Netherworld Flame.

There was only a thousand year old Netherworld Flame Fire Seed.

From the potential of the Spirit King had refined the Netherworld Flame for a thousand years, it was much stronger than ordinary Netherworld Flames.This was no longer an ordinary Netherworld Flame, it had already absorbed the power of the Spirit King for a thousand years, it had evolved into a thousand year Netherworld Ghost Flame.

If this Fire Seed was properly nurtured, it would definitely be a stronger flame than the Netherworld Flame!

But was nurturing the Fire Seed an easy thing to do?

It would consume resources like a bottomless pit!

Although this was not satisfying, but it was better than nothing, so Mo Yan did not wait to pick up the Fire Seed.

Yun Yao was standing to the side with the Thunder Spirit Bead, her eyes were twinkling as she stared at Mo Yan and Chu Tian.Now that the Thunder Spirit Bead was in her hands, her power had increased several times, she was confident that she could deal with Chu Tian now.

Mo Yan wasn’t a threat!

But should she take her revenge now?

Of course Chu Tian was not an idiot, the only reason he threw the Thunder Spirit Bead to Yun Yao was because of the crisis they were in, now that the Spirit King had already been taken care of, Yun Yao had undoubtedly become the largest threat.

Mo Yan saw the atmosphere had become tense, in his heart he felt a bit of fear.

Not good!

If the Purple Lightning Young Master makes a move now.

Even if they collaborate it wouldn’t be certain they could block the power of the Thunder Spirit Bead!

Mo Yan looked over at Chu Tian, the minute their eyes met, an understanding formed between them.If the Purple Lightning Young Master attacked one of them, they would work together against her!

The three of them spread out together, they were all wary of the other parties.What they were thinking, only they themselves knew.

At this moment, Mo Yan suddenly thought of something as he moved his head to look in all four directions, “That’s strange, Old Brother Wan should not have died, why is he gone?”

That’s right!

Where had Wan Wuyi gone?

There was not a trace of Wan Wuyi in the main hall!

Impossible!

He couldn’t possibly have left.

He had used his Secret Yin Wind Sword Art, letting him hide himself!

“Not good!”Chu Tian noticed something as he turned to look at Yun Yao, “Behind you!”

Yun Yao’s body trembled!

She had been paying full attention to Chu Tian and Mo Yan in fear that they would collaborate against her to steal the Thunder Spirit Bead, she did put any attention into guarding against sneak attacks.

A quick and fierce cold aura exploded out.

A terrifying killing intent surged over.

Yun Yao was startled, she didn’t even have time to turn around.

Pu!

A swift and fierce sword qi, stabbed right into her back, flying out through the front, large amounts of blood spilling out!

Yun Yao’s beautiful eyes turned round, she could only feel her strength leaving her body as she fell backwards!

“Ha, ha, ha!”

“Mine!It’s all mine!”

Wan Wuyi took out a cloth and quickly wrapped up the Thunder Spirit Bead, putting it away in his chest, he walked past Yun Yao’s body and stared at Chu Tian and Mo Yan with a face of greed.

Mo Yan revealed a surprised face, “The Purple Lightning Young Master is a member of the Central State Yun Family, are you not afraid of retaliation from Yun Tianhe after killing her?”

“With Yun Tianhe’s reputation, who wouldn’t be afraid?But there is only us here and dead people will never talk!”

Mo Yan’s eyes turned round in shock, “You…….”

“You can die now!”

“Yin Wind Soul Slash!”

Wan Wuyi once again displayed his Secret Yin Wind Sword Art, his figure disappeared once again.

Mo Yan’s heart filled with amazement, the reputation of the Yin Wind Swordsman was not undeserved, the Secret Yin Wind Sword Art was fast enough to leave not a shadow or trace, it was the best assassination skill in the Southern Summer Country.

Wan Wuyi had cultivated the «Secret Yin Wind Sword Art» for twenty years now, he had long reached the Large Success realm.If Mo Yan was in his normal condition, he would be able to retreat, but now his spirit energy was spent and he suffered heavy injuries from the Spirit King, how could he still escape from the Yin Wind Sword?

“I’ve been friends with you for so many years, you actually still want to silence me by killing me!”

Mo Yan angrily shouted, two black flames appeared in his hands, preparing to create a barrier around him, but before the flames could close.

A sword light shot through the opening!

Mo Yan’s eyes were wide open, the world spinned around him and with a splash he fell on the ground, the last he saw was a familiar looking headless body!

Yun Yao was collapsed in a pool of blood.

Mo Yan had been decapitated.

Wan Wuyi calmly reappeared, picking up the Netherworld Flame spirit core, “Ha, ha, ha, ha, the thousand year Netherworld flame is mine now!”

Such a ruthless fellow!

Chu Tian had underestimated him!

He was this skilled in killing someone to steal their treasure, perhaps this wasn’t his first time.

Wan Wuyi’s sinister eyes fell onto Chu Tian, “Little brat, I really have to thank you, you guys fought the Spirit King and managed to kill it while being injured, thus giving me an opportunity to swoop in, I really have to thank you!I have to admit, you are much stronger than I imagined, but now that you’re this exhausted, can you still block my sword?”

Wan Wuyi didn’t know that Chu Tian had already used the thousand year Yuan Essence Grass, his spirit energy had already refilled by half.

Chu Tian still did not dare to be negligent, the strength of the Yin Wind Swordsman was not small, he was a person with experience in the Jianghu.All his skills were very fierce, each one would kill with a single strike, he could not be underestimated.

“My sword is truly fast, you won’t feel any pain!”

“I’ve heard that people that die in the ancient tomb, their souls will never be able to pass on, they will be imprisoned here, in the end they will be turned into an evil spirit, I hope you enjoy it…..Ha, ha, ha, ha!”

Once the words were said.

Sou!

Wan Wuyi instantly vanished!

Just like a invisible cold wind!

This was the strength of the Yin Wind Sword Art, every strike left no shadow or trace, it was impossible to perceive.

Wan Wuyi’s achievements in the sword arts were high, not only was it impossible to identify him with the naked eye, even the sound and aura were all hidden, ordinary cultivators had no way to find him.

Chu Tian slowly stepped back, letting his back face a pillar, his eyes swept across the main hall as he coldly said, “Your sword art is only a low grade assassination skill, it cannot even be considered a powerful art!”

“Stubborn fool!”

“I’ll let you taste the strength of the Yin Wind Sword Art!”

Wan Wuyi’s voice rang out from an undeterminable place, it rang back and forth, it was impossible to figure out where he was.But Chu Tian could feel a wisp of killing intent, his mouth could not help but turn into a sneer, it was impossible for him to suppress his killing intent, this assassination sword art, to say it was low grade was already generous!
