Chapter 856 - Free Meal
After dealing with Zhou Tai, Xiao Chengfeng no longer concealed his swordsmanship.
An inexhaustible amount of sword intent surged out of his body, causing the space around him to twist and distort.
His sword intent was as vast as a river. It stood tall and proud like the stars in the sky. It caused all of the swordsmen below him to turn pale in shock.
Buzz!
Xiao Chengfeng walked up the mountain step by step. Everywhere he walked past, swords would shake.
It was as if they were resonating, calling for Xiao Chengfeng to bring them away.
To gain the approval of these swords, one needed to show one’s swordsmanship and resonate with them. It was the only way to earn the approval of the swords.
Yet…
It was the opposite when it came to Xiao Chengfeng
The swords on the mountain vibrated softly, resonating with Xiao Chengfeng on their own. They wanted Xiao Chengfeng’s approval.
That scene caused everyone to go green with envy. “What kind of swordsmanship is he learning to be able to cause the swords to be so humble?” “So, he really was acting earlier. Clearly, he could’ve easily subdued all the swords.” “He’s too strong. His understanding of the way of the sword must be on par with the leader of the Divine Sword Mountain.”
“Comparing myself to him is so frustrating. Is there really such a big difference in our understanding of the sword?”
However, Xiao Chengfeng ignored all of those swords.
Just as he said, he had his own swordsmanship. With the expert’s instructions, his way of the sword was naturally the strongest. Why would he need anything else?
As he climbed up, he headed straight to the peak.
Looking at that, everyone guessed that he wanted to retrieve the Great Mountain Blade at the top of the mountain.
Rumor had it that the Great Mountain Blade had been left behind by the first leader of the Divine Sword Mountain. Only by wielding that sword could one instill fear into the countless other swords on the mountain.
Gaining that sword meant inheriting the whole Divine Sword Mountain. It was something the current leader had not been able to do.
“Another swordsman aiming for the peak?”
“With Xiao Chengfeng’s skill and temperament, it’s natural he’d want the strongest sword.”
“He’s the fourth one so far. However, the earlier three had not even come out yet. I wonder what’s happening.”
“Let’s wait for him to enter the Sword Domain before we say anything.”
There was much discussion to be had.
The Sword Domain was a domain of Wisdom that had been formed by the strongest sword. If a swordsman was not strong enough, they would not even be able to get close.
It was something that had stopped the sword from being disturbed.
It had been a month since the Divine Sword Mountain had been opened, but there were only four people who had been able to enter the Sword Domain.
As everyone discussed, Xiao Chengfeng arrived at the highest point of the mountain.
He reached out with his finger and immediately, he felt an imperceptible barrier in front of him.
A solid sword aura touched his finger, not allowing him forward.
“It’s just the remnants of someone’s sword aura. It can’t stop me.”
Xiao Chengfeng smiled slightly as his sword aura surrounded his body. He then walked forward.
It was as if he had merged with the Sword Domain. There were no obstructions at all. He entered the Sword Domain and disappeared from everyone’s vision.
At the foot of the hill, Zhou Yuanhai and Jiang Liu’s expressions changed at the same time. Zhou Yuanhai said excitedly, “I felt it. It’s the aura of the Sky Melting Sword. It’s in the Sword Domain!”
Jiang Liu frowned. “There seems to be a strange sword aura in the Sword Domain. It has an incredibly sinister air. There’s also traces of a sword fight.” The moment the Sword Domain had been pulled open, they used their sensitivity to the sword to sense what was inside. Xiao Chengfeng got the deepest view. The moment he stepped into the sword Domain, something fatally dangerous immediately attacked him. He instantly pulled out his sword and slashed forward!
Boom!
A bloody glow suddenly appeared, swiftly cut down by Xiao Chengfeng’s sword.
Xiao Chengfeng managed to compose himself as he looked at everything within the Sword Domain.
If he had not been quick enough, that blow would have dealt him a heavy injury, if not outright kill him. Basically, the result would have been death no matter what!
When he looked at the scene in front of him, the corner of his eye twitched.
A man in long red robes sat in the middle of the Sword Domain. Next to him were three people. The three of them were already completely unrecognizable. They had already turned into skin and bones, completely dried out corpses.
Xiao Chengfeng’s gaze fell on the sword in the red-robed man’s hand.
The sword was eight feet long. It was completely red and was half transparent. That was the Sky Melting Sword!
Strangely, the Sky Melting Sword was firmly stuck into the sword in the center of the Sword Domain.
That sword was undoubtedly the sword the first leader of the mountain had left behind. It looked incredibly bright, but it was also crying out in agony. More than half its body had been dissolved as if it was being merged with the Sky Melting Sword.
As a swordsman, Xiao Chengfeng could feel the sword resisting it, pleading for help.
“What a quick reaction. Of those who came in, you’re the first who managed to avoid my ambush. Your swordsmanship looks quite appetizing. It should be interesting to eat it!”
The red-robed man let out a bloody smile as he licked his lips greedily.
Xiao Chengfeng looked at the red-robed man cautiously as he said, “You swallowed their swordsmanship?”
“No no no, swallowing sounds so aggressive, I’m just merging with them.”
The red-robed man shook his head as he said, “Merging with all the swordsmanships in the world. This is something every swordsman dreams of. I’m just fulfilling their wishes. They must be so grateful to me. So… Do you want to join me?”
“Dream on!” Xiao Chengfeng shouted loudly as he brandished the sword in his hand right at the red-robed man!
Thousands of swords glowed in the skies, falling rapidly!
The red-robed man pointed his finger, using it as a sword. An intense red glow shot out of it.
The sword clashed with the sea of blades. It seemed like a needle pricking a balloon, suddenly turning Xiao Chengfeng’s attack to nothing.
A Wisdom Dictator?! Xiao Chengfeng felt a chill as he retreated a few steps.
His mind rapidly moved as he quickly sorted out his thoughts.
It was called the Sky Melting Sword because it could melt and absorb any sword in the world. The best place for the Sky Melting Sword was naturally the Divine Sword Mountain.
Before, the mountain was never open, so the Sky Melting Sword could never enter. All it could do was look on.
Now, the red-robed man had taken the opportunity to enter the mountain. He wanted to use the Sky Melting Sword to absorb all the swords there. Even the strongest blade was no exception.
Once he succeeded in doing that, the power he would be able to wield would be horrifying.
He would have unlimited sword techniques. He would be capable of destroying everything in his path!
The Divine Sword Mountain was careless. How could they allow such a terrifying thing inside?
“I’ve suddenly been enlightened. Merging sword skills isn’t a bad idea. You can slowly absorb them in here and I won’t disturb you.”
Before Xaio Chengfeng even finished, he had already turned around and fled from the Sword Domain.
That guy was a Wisdom Dictator. There was no point in fighting him. If he did, he was practically giving the guy a free meal.
