Chapter 488: Chapter 486 Minghong Blade

Xiao Yifeng’s physical body was formidable, but once he encountered experts possessing Spiritual Artifacts, physical combat could become a disadvantage. After all, his body had not yet cultivated to the level of the Dominant Body.

Should he cultivate the Dominant Body, he would fear no weapons, for he himself would become a weapon that could shock both Heaven and Earth.

The prestige of this blade alone suggested it was no ordinary item, at the very least, it was of Spiritual Artifact caliber.

Moreover, as the saber is the tyrant among weapons, it perfectly matched Xiao Yifeng’s domineering style. What he needed most was a treasured blade to enhance his battle power.

This blade before his eyes was clearly most fitting, and he naturally could not miss this opportunity.

Now, it was not so easy for him to advance realms or to unblock the Fifth Major Acupoint. If he wanted to strengthen his battle power, he could only rely on other methods, and acquiring a powerful weapon was naturally the best choice.

"You want to control this blade?"

Tang Shengyi’s gaze fell upon Xiao Yifeng as he couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes!"

Xiao Yifeng nodded.

"This blade is filled with violence, slaughter, and endless resentment. It’s not a good blade and may be an Evil Blade or a Demon Blade. If you want to control it, it might affect your mind!"

Tang Shengyi said with a serious expression.

"Who cares what kind of blade it is, as long as it can kill, it is a good blade. An Evil Blade or a Demon Blade, what of it? Man controls the blade, not the blade controls man. Even if it is a Demon Blade, it still has to follow my commands. As for influencing my mind, don’t even think about it!"

Xiao Yifeng uttered forcefully, his eyes shining with a purple light, as a fearless domineering aura was released.

Boom!

With a leap, Xiao Yifeng grasped the hilt of the blade. A violent power filled with malice and resentment surged from the blade into Xiao Yifeng’s body. At the same time, a terrifying Saber Intent was released from the blade, as if to obliterate Xiao Yifeng.

Nine Stars Tyrant Body Art!

Xiao Yifeng activated the Nine Stars Tyrant Body Art, with the Starforce erupting wildly from his four major acupoints, clashing with the violent, malicious power filled with resentment, creating a terrifying energy explosion.

Xiao Yifeng’s body was struck, and he spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, which fell upon the blade.

Instantly, the blade, shimmering with light, like the Nine Dragons Seal before, tried to repel Xiao Yifeng’s blood, resisting his assertion of ownership.

Swish! Swish!

At that moment, two purple beams shot out from Xiao Yifeng’s eyes, blasting into the blade and immediately calming it, allowing his blood to integrate smoothly into it.

Meanwhile, after Xiao Yifeng’s internal Starforce extinguished the violent power, it surged into the blade, where the domineering Starforce straightforwardly suppressed it.

In an instant, Xiao Yifeng felt the blade merge with him as one. His eyes closed, and his body faintly emitted an invisible Saber Intent.

Seeing this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in Tang Shengyi’s eyes.

After a long while, the Saber Intent emanating from Xiao Yifeng grew increasingly strong, like a treasured blade about to leave its sheath, its keen and lethal intent making one feel asphyxiated, as if it could shatter Heaven and Earth.

The air in the chamber seemed to solidify under the oppression of this terrifying Saber Intent.

Swoosh!

At some point, Xiao Yifeng’s eyes suddenly snapped open, radiating brilliance, as if two terrifying saber beams shot forth from his pupils.

A horrifying Saber Intent was released from Xiao Yifeng, annihilating the Void around him.

Minghong Blade!

Xiao Yifeng gripped the blade tightly, muttering to himself with a smile emerging on his face.

Xiao Yifeng had now completely claimed the blade, and he also understood its name—the Minghong Blade.

It was a blade that had been cast from the leftover materials when the Xuanyuan Divine Sword was forged during Ancient Times. However, due to its inherently violent nature and heavy resentment, coupled with an overpowering Saber Intent, it was difficult for ordinary people to control and easy to suffer backlash.

Why it had been suppressed here was unknown, but today, Xiao Yifeng had succeeded in taking control.

However, if it were not for the power of Xiao Yifeng’s Starforce and the prowess of his Clairvoyant Divine Eye, he likely would have struggled to control the Minghong Blade and instead become controlled by it.

Swoosh!

Xiao Yifeng brandished the Minghong Blade in his hand, and a strong saber qi slashed onto the wall, carving a deep gash into it.

"What a blade!"

Xiao Yifeng exclaimed, acknowledging the power of the blade indeed was formidable. However, even he was unaware of the blade’s tier, much like the Nine Dragons Seal—it showed no sign of its grade, yet it clearly was not an ordinary weapon.

"You’ve actually managed to control this blade?"

Tang Shengyi looked at Xiao Yifeng with eyes full of surprise.

"There’s nothing I, Xiao Yifeng, wish to do that I cannot achieve. It’s just a blade after all; no matter how strong, it still relies on a person to wield it!"

Xiao Yifeng’s lips curved into a sly smile, his domineering sovereign aura unfurled unapologetically, causing Tang Shengyi’s eyes to shine with admiration.

"You are indeed quite extraordinary!"

Tang Shengyi said, watching Xiao Yifeng and pursing her lips thoughtfully.

"By the way, what’s the tier of this blade?"

Tang Shengyi couldn’t help but ask as she gazed at the blade in Xiao Yifeng’s hand.

"I don’t know. All I know is its name is the Minghong Blade, but I’m clueless about its tier."

Xiao Yifeng shook his head.

"The Minghong Blade? The legendary Evil Blade from Ancient Times that was one with the Xuanyuan Sword!"

A flash of astonishment crossed Tang Shengyi’s eyes as she looked at the blade in Xiao Yifeng’s hand.

"You know about it?"

Xiao Yifeng fixed his gaze on Tang Shengyi.

"I’ve heard of it. This blade is said to possess exceptional power, incomparable to ordinary Spiritual Artifacts, and it could even rival the legendary Xuanyuan Sword."

"However, legends claim that because the blade’s malignant spirit and Saber Intent are too intense, most people simply cannot control it; it’s all too easy to be backlashed, lose oneself, and ultimately become dominated by the Minghong Blade, which is why it’s known as the Evil Blade."

"No one dares to claim ownership and control it. I hadn’t imagined that not only would you recognize it as your own, but you’d also be successful. It’s incredible!"

A look of amazement flashed through Tang Shengyi’s eyes as she observed Xiao Yifeng.

"This just goes to show how great my character is!"

Xiao Yifeng boasted with a smile on his face.

"Stop being so shameless. We need to focus on finding a way out now; this Underground Mausoleum looks exceptionally peculiar."

Tang Shengyi curled her lip.

"How did you guys get in?"

"After you disappeared through the palace’s hole, we followed suit, only to become completely separated. Down here seems like a labyrinth."

Tang Shengyi frowned deeply.

"Don’t worry, follow me!"

Xiao Yifeng said indifferently, then began walking towards the outside, with Tang Shengyi following behind.

Xiao Yifeng activated his Clairvoyant Divine Eye as they moved.

"Found it!"

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yifeng finally led Tang Shengyi back into the initial palace.

"Damn!"

However, when Xiao Yifeng saw that only one chest containing Spirit Stones remained from the several that were there before, he couldn’t help but curse under his breath. He had hoped to take these Spirit Stones for himself, only to find that just one chest was left.

Clearly, the other chests had been taken by the masked man and Mo Shuqian. No doubt, if they hadn’t been short-handed, even this last chest of Spirit Stones wouldn’t have been left for Xiao Yifeng.
