Chapter 229: Broken Sword!
A beast would normally need over 20 years to reach the Demonic Xuan Realm from birth, yet Da Bao and Xiao Ling had obviously reached it within a few months. How could Su Yi not be astonished?!
“My lord, we have broken through to the Demonic Xuan Realm. That spiritual root is a treasure,” Da Bao and Xiao Ling said in beast language while flicking their tongues and affectionately winding around Su Yi with excitement.
They had eaten the spiritual root of the Blood Spiritual Ginseng and gained tremendous benefits from refining it, allowing them to break through to the Demonic Xuan Realm.
“Good,” Su Yi praised them and then contemplated the situation. Even though Da Bao and Xiao Ling had gained benefits from the spiritual root of the Blood Spiritual Ginseng, the biggest reason for their growth must most likely have a connection to this mysterious space.
Back then, when Golden Python, Fiery Red Demonic Mink, White Jade Swallow, and the rest had gained benefits from the inheritance of the mysterious space, they had become different afterward.
As for Da Bao and Xiao Ling, when they were still inside their eggs, the mysterious space seemed to have bestowed benefits upon them.
Hence, Su Yi reasoned that although the spiritual root of the Blood Spiritual Ginseng played a part, the crucial reason for Da Bao and Xiao Ling’s rapid advancement to the Demonic Xuan Realm was still this mysterious space.
Su Yi swept his gaze around and saw that the Blood Spiritual Ginseng remained in its original place, with half its roots plunged into the soil as its body emitted a glow while the leaves on its head gave out a radiance.
“Spiritual Essence……” Su Yi recalled his precious Spiritual Essence and immediately went to check on it. Afterward, he was reassured.
The pool of Spiritual Essence had expanded slightly along with the space. Overall, the remaining Spiritual Essence from before was still there. The Blood Spiritual Ginseng had kept its promise and had not stolen any Spiritual Essence to drink.
The Spiritual Herbs inside the mysterious space had also grown healthily while emitting a radiance. The elixirs that Su Yi had placed inside the mysterious space previously had advanced and improved significantly too.
“You will continue to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time. When it is safe for you to go out, I will bring you out,” Su Yi explained to Fire-Eyes Beast Tiger and the rest after tidying up and taking another Yuan Weapon saber from the mysterious space.
At the moment, it was not suitable for Fire-Eyes Beast Tiger and the others to reveal themselves as he was still in the heaven of peace and happiness, so they could only continue to cultivate here.
After securing the mysterious space, Su Yi surveyed his surroundings and picked up the 500-kilogram broken sword that lay not far away.
“Eh, it became heavier!” When he lifted the broken sword, Su Yi was momentarily shocked as the initially 500-kilogram broken sword was now actually three times heavier than before.
Though he had advanced from Yuan Xuan Realm Second Grade to Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade, Su Yi thought that even without initiating his Yuan Qi, his brute force should have increased significantly. However, as he held the 500-kilogram broken sword, he still felt the same strenuous effort as before.
Su Yi reckoned that the broken sword had unknowingly grown to about 1,500 kilograms. Without initiating his Yuan Qi, even holding it was a strain.
“This is definitely not an ordinary broken sword!”
Though puzzled by the sword’s increased weight, Su Yi wasn’t entirely surprised. He clearly remembered when he was killing the Iron Armor Demonic Rhinoceros inside the frightening sticky fluid, it was this broken sword’s sudden eruption of monstrous sword force and blinding sword glow that had directly slashed the Iron Armor Demonic Rhinoceros, saving him at a critical moment.
At that moment of eruption, Su Yi could still remember the terrifying power and killing intent that had swept over. That power was remarkably mighty as it poured into his body. But the most horrifying aspect was that terrifying killing intent.
Recalling that killing intent, Su Yi still felt a lingering fear in his heart as though it was appearing vividly before his eyes. That whiff of gruesome killing intent along with the surging power charged over as though he could see scenes of blood flooding into rivers and bones stacking up before his eyes.
That killing intent was so terrifying, as if it wanted to destroy everything, almost causing his body to explode into powder at that time. Afterward, that killing intent abruptly disappeared, leaving behind only that trace of tremendous power.
Su Yi thoroughly examined the broken sword in his hand. It still maintained its ordinary, wholly broken appearance, and he could not perceive anything unusual. But Su Yi was absolutely certain that when he killed the Iron Armor Demonic Rhinoceros, it was this broken sword that had erupted with such frightening power.
After carefully examining it for about an hour and trying every possible method, the broken sword remained quiet, making Su Yi give up. However, he was very sure that this broken sword was not ordinary. Perhaps next time when he encountered another opportunity, he could discover its secrets.
Holding the now-heavier broken sword, Su Yi strenuously waved it a few times with a smile on his face. The added weight was not a problem for him as it was perfectly suitable for his preparations to cultivate the Emperor Grade martial technique.
“Whoosh……”
At one side, the scorching heat aura surging with fluctuations showed movement.
Su Yi glanced over. Scorching hot aura fluctuated around Su Tian Que’s body with flames whistling as if it had awakened, as it flapped its short wings with a holy light-like crimson-gold color flowing across its entire body.
As the fire-like radiance gradually subsided, Su Tian Que, with the appearance of a featherless meat chicken, emerged clearly with light shining in its small eyes as it flapped its short wings twice with an exceedingly happy expression.
“It seems to have changed slightly……” Looking at Su Tian Que, Su Yi noticed some changes in the aura around its body compared to before, while the feathers on its body appeared somewhat more lustrous.
However… it was still a featherless meat chicken.
But as he looked at Su Tian Que now, his heart felt a trace of warmth. Glancing at that featherless appearance, it somehow appeared even more handsome and dignified.
Su Yi knew Su Tian Que’s personality very well—wicked like hob meat, always keen on gaining petty advantages.
But this time, Su Tian Que clearly knew it was outmatched, yet still gave chase and fought with the Iron Armor Demonic Rhinoceros, causing Su Yi to feel warmth in his heart.
“Eh, you brat, you’ve broken through, and it seems like… you’ve broken through quite a lot!” When Su Tian Que saw Su Yi and felt the subtle aura currently emitting from his body, surprise gushed from within its small glistening eyes.
“Only broken through by a few grades,” Su Yi nodded and smiled slightly.
Su Tian Que’s eyes twitched as it rolled them at Su Yi. This fellow had actually broken through by so many grades. Truly a freak.
“Nevertheless, your gut is quite big. With just the cultivation of Yuan Xuan Realm, you actually directly ate the demonic core……” Su Tian Que rolled its eyes at Su Yi again.
“Didn’t you also swallow that demonic core?” Su Yi retorted, also rolling his eyes at Su Tian Que. The torturous pain from swallowing the energy of the demonic core had left Su Yi with lingering fear in his heart—he had nearly died.
“That’s different. That was me, not you—you’re only at the Yuan Xuan Realm. Under normal circumstances, directly swallowing the demonic core should have killed you a hundred times over!” Su Tian Que glared at Su Yi and rolled its eyes, so angry its teeth were aching.
That fellow had actually crushed the demonic core, ruining such a treasure. Most importantly, the energy from the demonic core should have been exclusively for it. Who would have guessed that the fellow would charge over again and risk his life to swallow a small part of the energy from the demonic core?
