Chapter 479 - 475: Replicating the Sword Pool, Entering Evil Sword Valley
Many of the tian jiao looked at the three and couldn’t help but mock them.
"Is there really someone trying to learn at the last minute?"
"Instead of seizing this chance to quickly explore the Evil Sword Valley, they still have the mind to sit here and practice."
"Tsk, tsk, maybe they endured so long in the first round, they think they can last that long in the second round too."
Liu Yu, feeling a bit conflicted, glanced at Xia Feng and the others, then looked at the sarcastic crowd, unable to hold back and stepped forward to say a few words on their behalf.
"Alright, enough with the comments. With your mediocre skills, be careful not to die in the Evil Sword Valley."
"Doing more preparation before going in is being responsible for oneself, you should worry more about yourselves."
The status of those speaking tian jiao was evidently not higher than Liu Yu’s. After being lectured by Liu Yu, even though they felt a bit disgruntled, they dared not show any of it on their faces.
After people dispersed, Xia Feng looked up at Liu Yu, startling him into a shiver, and Liu Yu quickly explained: "I meant no harm..."
Having said that, he seemed a bit embarrassed about being so frightened, and turned his head away, frowning slightly.
"I just, I only... just didn’t want to have any conflict with you."
He spoke in a somewhat incoherent manner, clearly previously scared out of his wits by Xia Feng.
Xia Feng glanced at him again, said nothing, and directly closed his eyes, pulling Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue into the Dream Realm Pearl.
Liu Yu, seeing Xia Feng not saying much, wasn’t sure if he felt relieved or even more on edge, called out to his own people to regroup and entered the Evil Sword Valley.
Once there was no one around, Xia Feng entered the Dream Realm Pearl himself to find Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue.
Previously, when the Sword Intent Body ended, some traces of sword intent were intercepted by the Dream Realm Pearl; who knew what the situation inside was now.
As soon as Xia Feng entered the Dream Realm Pearl, he noticed there seemed to be more Power of Rules inside.
After the Dream Realm Pearl devoured the Infinite Pearl, it evolved once, already containing mixed rules of the Great Dao of Space-Time.
Now, Xia Feng in the Dream Realm Pearl sensed the presence of the Great Dao of Celestial Sword.
He hesitated for a moment, then slightly closed his eyes, comprehending the rules within the Dream Realm Pearl while pondering.
If this continues, how is the existence of the Dream Realm Pearl any different from these Secret Realms?
Or perhaps, if it grows larger, will it become another world, another Divine Domain?
After thinking for a long time, he couldn’t figure it out, so Xia Feng started organizing the sword intent in his body.
He simulated the previous Sword Pool in the Central Plaza, intending to create a set of Sword Pool Baptism in the Dream Realm Pearl.
About fifteen minutes later in the outside world, Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue had fully mastered the sword intent on their bodies.
A sword pool had already condensed in front of Xia Feng, though its effect was much weaker compared to the Sword Pool in the Holy Sword Pavilion.
He estimated it was about half the effect of the ninth Sword Pool, making little difference for Xia Feng himself.
However, he still had nine wives who hadn’t comprehended the Great Dao of Celestial Sword, so the weaker effect was just right for laying their foundation.
Moreover, Xia Feng had a vague feeling that if he could progress further in the Holy Sword Secret Realm, the Celestial Sword Rule Power within the entire Dream Realm Pearl might become even stronger.
Li Qingxue walked up next to Xia Feng, looked at the sword pool in the Dream Realm Pearl, and couldn’t help but express surprise: "This..."
Xia Feng smiled: "The effect is still lacking, it’s just a concept, needs more attempts."
Li Qingxue’s expression showed a few more signs of contemplation: "If husband can borrow some of the assessment process from the Holy Sword Secret Realm, our next pace should be faster."
Xia Feng paused before continuing: "It was just lucky to obtain a bit of sword intent, there’s no telling if we’ll have such luck afterwards."
"But you’re right, we’ve delayed long enough, we should also go see what’s happening in the Evil Sword Valley."
The three of them talked as they withdrew from the Dream Realm Pearl.
Xia Feng looked at the Evil Sword Valley ahead; that chilling sensation felt particularly discomforting.
At that moment, within the Evil Sword Valley, there was no sign of Li Qingyu and others, evidently they had ventured deep inside.
Upon entering the Evil Sword Valley, Xia Feng discerned that the black demonic energy mixed with the yin energy wasn’t Evil Sword Spirits, just sinister energy.
But when it landed on a person, it would also slow down their movements, accumulating over time, even clouding the mind.
At the very beginning Xia Feng made two tentative attempts, discovering the substantial impact it had, then turned to give a few cautions to Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue, telling them to be careful.
A faint, crimson mist spread over their bodies, a power gained from absorbing the Blood Dragon Sword Heart before.
With this murderous, bloodthirsty aura enveloping them, although the sinister energy still circled around them, it couldn’t invade their bodies.
No one knew exactly how long the valley was; the surroundings were dark, making it hard to see nearby conditions.
The crimson glow around the three was like a beacon in the darkness, making Xia Feng feel rather conspicuous.
About a thousand meters in, they finally encountered the first group of Evil Sword Spirits.
This wave had few Evil Sword Spirits, only five, looking like distorted conglomerations of demonic energy, twisted and inhuman.
Xia Feng grew more vigilant, unsure how these Evil Sword Spirits would attack.
However, these Evil Sword Spirits seemed somewhat afraid of the crimson mist covering the trio, blocking their path but not actively attacking.
Li Qingxue’s Divine Sword suddenly emitted a piercing cry: "Evil Sword Spirit! Evil Sword Spirit! Evil Sword Spirit!"
"Eat them! Eat them!"
Xia Feng was startled by the sword spirit in Li Qingxue’s Divine Sword, his defenses weakened for an instant; had the opposite Evil Sword Spirits not been startled and refrained from attacking, Xia Feng would’ve nearly relied on instinctive defense.
With a slightly annoyed look, he turned towards Li Qingxue’s Divine Sword: "You better have a good reason for that or else..."
The remaining words went unsaid, but the sword spirit was already trembling.
The earlier cry was purely instinctive, a subconscious reaction to encountering a nemesis.
After being called out by Xia Feng, it realized its mistake, cowering, not daring to explain to Xia Feng.
