Double Cultivation
writhing in fear
After everyone other than Su Yang was inside the defensive formation, Qiuyue layered the formation of several defensive formations. One of these defensive formations could block a hundred cultivators at the peak of the Sovereign Spirit Realm and not even receive a single crack, let alone a dozen formations that were all grouped together.
"Senior, do you think he can kill that Demonic Blood Snake?" Xie Xingfang asked Qiuyue in a respectful tone.
Qiuyue looked at him and shrugged with a serious expression, "How do I know?"
"Eh?" Xie Xingfang and the others there looked at him with confused faces.
How could an expert like him not know the outcome? Surely he must have a lot of – experience and enough to determine the outcome of the fight before it starts.
However, actually, despite his cultivation base and having lived for thousands of years, Qiuyue had no experience in battle, as he had lived a very remote life ever since he was young.
Of course, he had to deal with the Holy Moon Shrine hunting him down, but he only needed to escape, which did not require much of a battle.
After arriving in this world, where every Cultivator was no different from the ants in his eyes, even if he needed to fight, he was, all he needed to win the fight was to unleash some of his cultivation and it would shock his opponents to death.
Seeing Xie Xingfang's confused gaze, Qiuyue spoke a moment later, "If Su Yang told you not to worry about him, then there should be no reason for you to worry about him. Of course, this situation may seem frivolous to him, but I believe in his judgment and confidence."
Hearing her words that did not have the slightest bit of hesitation, Xie Xingfang nodded and decided to trust Su Yang as well.
Meanwhile, in midair, Su Yang and Fu Kuan stared at each other in silence.
"Thank you for being patient." Su Yang said to Fu Kuan with an indifferent expression on his face after Xie Xingfang and the others left his side.
Fu Kuan coldly snorted with disdain on his face, "Hmph! No need to rush. As long as I have this Demonic Blood Snake by my side, I can kill you whenever I want easily, and I want your death to be extremely slow and painful!"
His gaze then turned from Su Yang's face to the sword in his hand, "I must thank you in advance for giving me such a beautiful treasure."
Su Yang raised his sword and spoke with a smile, "Even if I hand this sword over to you now, you won't be able to handle it. Did you know that Heaven-Level Spiritual Treasures and above can cultivate their own conscience?"
"And it happens, they can choose the owner for who can hold it and who cannot touch it" Su Yang said and continued, continuing,
"And for the past several thousand years, there have only been two individuals who have ever managed to obtain the Divine Moon Stone Sword's approval."
"If you don't believe me, why don't you take this sword and see what will happen to your body afterwards?" Su Yang suddenly extended a sword towards Fu Kuan with a calm expression, as if he was offering the sword to Fu Kuan.
"Su Yang ?!" Xie Xingfang was stunned by his actions. There was a high possibility that Su Yang was just bluffing, but if Fu Kuan somehow managed to obtain the treasure, it would be a disaster for all of them.
However, Qiuyue spoke in a calm voice, "Su Yang is not bluffing. The heirloom actually had its own consciousness. In fact, even though I can touch it, I have no control over it. If anyone other than Su Yang and my mother touched it, the Divine Moon Stone Sword would try to kill them by pouring a Profound Qi that they could not handle into their bodies, who instantly blew up their bodies and killed them."
Xie Xingfang's body trembled as he imagined such a scenario, where his body exploded just by touching this treasure.
"…"
Fu Kuan stared at the sword with a deep frown. Although he was quite certain that Su Yang was only bluffing about a spiritual weapon that had his own consciousness, he could feel an extremely subtle yet dangerous feeling emanating from that sword.
It was a feeling that came from his instinct – that made every cell in his body vibrate.
After a while passed without any movement from Fu Kuan, Su Yang picked up the sword and spoke, "i'm a busy person, so I won't linger anymore."
After saying those words, Su Yang gently stroked the semi-transparent sword with his fingers, causing black flames to appear from where he touched it.
By the time his fingers reached the tip of his blade, the entire sword was engulfed in black flames.
However, even though his hand was still inside this dangerous-looking black flame, Su Yang could only feel a comfortable warm feeling, like his hand was wrapped in a soft branded blanket.
Meanwhile, the Profound Qi within a radius of 10,000 miles rushed towards Su Yang's location and was absorbed by the Divine Moon Stone Sword, causing the black flames to appear darker and more ferocious, causing the, like the fire of the deepest part of hell.
At this moment, Su Yang appeared to be not a mere Heaven Spirit Realm expert, and he exuded an aura similar to the Devil Blood Snake – no, even surpassing it!
When the Blood Devil Snake sensed the killing intent and the terrifying aura coming from the black flames, he started to tremble while making a strange sound that almost sounded like crying.
"Demon Blood Snake ?!" Fu Kuan saw him writhing as if he wanted to escape with a shocked expression.
He could not believe his eyes. How could the Demonic Blood Snake, a summoned beast at the peak of the Sovereign Spirit Realm that required over 36,000 human sacrifices to summon, tremble in fear before a Cultivator in the Heavenly Spirit Realm?!
