Buzz!
All of a sudden, the black gas that was hovering around the Spirit Devourer Blade turned into countless black rays of light. Like a meteor shower, they shot towards Xing Jue.
"Roar!"
When the black rays of light left the Spirit Devourer Blade, they actually turned into countless black monsters with their bloody mouths wide open. Black gas constantly rose from their bodies, causing Xing Jue to be unable to see their appearance clearly. However, Xing Jue felt that they did not have a complete form. Instead, they looked more like a huge mouth with a bloody mouth.
The monsters that were formed by the black gas had extraordinary strength. Almost every one of them was comparable to a Combat Emperor. However, in the eyes of Xing Jue, they were still too weak.
"Break Slash!!!!"
With a twist of Xing Jue's wrist, the Blades of Asura that were hidden in the storage bracelet in his hand appeared. With a wave of his arm, several majestic sword auras shot out. This was Xing Jue's newly created martial skill, Shattering Slash.
Bang Bang Bang Bang!
Xing Jue's Break Slash was no small matter. It was above all the sword type martial skills that he had mastered before. From a certain point of view, even if it was not comparable to a Heaven Rank Martial Skill, it was not far from it. Therefore, at the moment when the Break Slash collided with the Blades of Asura, the gaseous monsters were all shattered. They turned into wisps of messy gas and disappeared in mid-air.
"It's actually soul energy."
Looking at the black gas that disappeared in the air, Executioner's eyes lit up, because when the gas dissipated, Shauna, Executioner actually felt the scent of a soul within it.
Looking at the majestic gas that was hovering around the Spirit Devourer Blade, Xing Jue's expression became somewhat interesting. If this was really a strange soul energy, how powerful would such a majestic energy be? If it could be devoured by Xing Jue, it might even be possible for him to break through to a high-level Combat Emperor.
"En, not bad. The last descendant of the Spirit Devourer Race did not disappoint me."
Just as Xing Jue was looking at the gas that was slowly revolving around the Spirit Devourer Blade and salivating, a voice of praise suddenly came from within the gas.
Subsequently, a figure slowly stepped out from within. When he saw this person, Xing Jue couldn't help but be startled and quickly took a few steps back.
At the same time, he expanded his soul energy to the limit to observe the other party's movements. Even though the person in front of him had no aura, Xing Jue still felt a great threat.
It was a humanoid monster. The reason why it was called a monster was because it had the shape of a human but did not have a human face. Its body was dark in color and there was a black gas constantly drifting out from its body. It was hard to tell whether its body was real or illusory.
The head that was like a fireball had no nose or mouth at all. The only thing that could be seen was a pair of ghost-like white eyes.
But what alarmed Xing Jue the most was that there were strange runes flowing on his ethereal body, and the shape of the runes was exactly the same as the ones on the Soul Devourer's blade. Xing Jue's intuition told him that this was very likely the weapon spirit of the Soul Devourer's blade, and also the true owner of the Soul Devourer's ancient tomb.
"Senior, is this the Spirit Devourer Blade?" The other party's strength was not to be underestimated. Even though Xing Jue was eager to conquer it, Xing Jue did not dare to take it lightly. Instead, he asked with an extremely respectful attitude.
"Senior? Hahahaha … "
"Don't play with me. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
"I've heard what you said to Hun Ji and the others."
"Don't talk nonsense. If you want to fight, then come. Let me see if you can really stand shoulder to shoulder with Hun Ming."
Facing Xing Jue's action, the strange monster suddenly laughed mockingly. Then, it used a disdainful tone to shout at Xing Jue. However, it also indirectly admitted its true identity, which was the weapon spirit of the Spirit Devourer Blade.
"Since that's the case, then I'll have to offend you."
* Swoosh *
Seeing that the Spirit Devouring Blade was already prepared, Xing Jue no longer hesitated. He took a step forward and shot out like an arrow that had left the bow. However, his speed was far inferior to the lightning that swam through the clouds and the meteor that glided through the night sky, let alone the arrow. His speed was so fast that it was not something that an ordinary person could see with their naked eyes.
"Break Slash"
* Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh *
With this speed, Xing Jue arrived in front of the Spirit Devourer Blade in an instant. However, at this moment, Xing Jue did not really fight with it. Instead, he directly released four Break Slashes.
The area of the half-moon shaped slash was no small matter. When the four slashes connected together, it could be described as an earth-shattering attack. With such an attack coming from the front, other than retreating, there was basically no way to retreat. At such a distance, coupled with the frightening speed of the slash, it was impossible to even retreat.
"Is this considered a probing attack? Not bad. Very strong. "
"However, to the current me, it's still too weak."
Facing the attack of the four Break Slashes, not only did the Spirit Devourer Blade not move, but its gaze became even more disdainful.
* Roar ~ *
But just as the four slashes were about to hit it, the black gas wrapped around the Soul-Devouring Blade behind it surged out like a huge wave and swallowed all four of Xing Jue's slashes.
Xing Jue's expression changed drastically when he saw that his Shattering Slash was easily broken. However, he did not have the time to think too much at this moment. That was because he no longer had any path of retreat and the only way out was to continue fighting.
"Time Space."
Therefore, Xing Jue clenched his teeth and suddenly raised his right arm. He clenched his fist towards the sky and executed his strongest Heaven Ranked Martial Skill, Time Space.
Swish swish swish swish swish!
In an instant, countless rays of deep blue light emerged, like blue meteors that blotted out the sky, shuttling through the space at high speed, embellishing the already beautiful world even more gorgeous.
However, what surprised Xing Jue was that the weapon spirit of the Soul-Devouring Blade did not move at all in the face of his Time Space. Instead, it turned its head that was like a fireball and looked around with great interest, as if it was admiring the beautiful scenery created by the Time Space.
"Time Space, not bad. I didn't expect you to know that guy's martial skill. It seems like you have a close relationship with him."
"Could it be that you are his successor?" Suddenly, the Spirit Devourer Blade looked at Xing Jue again and asked with a rather curious tone.
"That's right. To be honest, this junior is indeed Senior Hun Ming's successor. Now that I have come to senior's territory, I have no intention to offend you. However, Senior Hun Ming said that only senior can obtain his inheritance here. That's why this junior is here to seek guidance from senior."
Seeing that the Spirit Devourer Blade had actually mentioned Hun Ming, Xing Jue had an idea and hurriedly said. If Hun Ming had really defeated the Spirit Devourer Blade and left something here, then Hun Ming must have told the Spirit Devourer Blade something.
Although Xing Jue had already displayed the Time Space, he still could not sense the Spirit Devourer Blade's strength. In other words, even if he had the support of the Time Space, it was still extremely unlikely for him to defeat the Spirit Devourer Blade.
At the very least, Xing Jue did not even have a fifty percent chance of winning. Therefore, he might as well use Hun Ming's name to negotiate with the Spirit Devourer Blade. Perhaps he could really obtain the Spirit Devourer Blade's recognition without fighting.
"As expected. I have to say that Hun Ming has a good eye for choosing a successor like you."
"Back then, when he came here, his strength was similar to yours. However, he was slightly older than you. In other words, you are even more outstanding than Hun Ming back then."
"As you said, Hun Ming did leave something with me. Moreover, it's an extremely powerful force. Even Hun Ming didn't dare to touch this force back then, so he left it with me. This is the dark soul that is lingering around me now."
Speaking until here, the Soul-Devouring Blade's weapon spirit couldn't help but spread its arms. At this moment, the dark gas on its body instantly became much denser. A powerful pressure suddenly appeared, forcing Xing Jue to step back.
"So powerful. So this is the power that Senior Hun Ming wants me to inherit?"
Xing Jue, who was forced to take a few steps back by the pressure emitted by the Spirit Devourer Blade, revealed an excited smile because he realized that it was indeed soul force. Moreover, it was soul force that was far above his own. If he could refine this soul force, it would be extremely easy for him to break through to the high-level Combat Emperor realm.
"Xing Jue, logically speaking, I have already made an agreement with Hun Ming. As long as his successor comes here, I should pass this power to you."
"However, it's a pity that Hun Ming was too careless. He left such a powerful forbidden power with me. How can I not be tempted?"
"Actually, Xing Jue, with your strength, I am not your opponent. However, it's a pity that you are far from being my opponent."
"Because after thousands of years, the dark soul that Hun Ming left with me has been completely controlled by me. Now … this is my power!"
Suddenly, the Spirit Devourer Blade's gaze became abnormally sinister. At the same time, layers of powerful pressure rose continuously like a tsunami, stirring the surrounding space into chaos.
At this moment, Xing Jue's expression changed drastically. An extremely uneasy feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
"Swoosh."
Looking at the sudden change in the Soul Devouring Blade, as well as the power it displayed, Xing Jue realized that the situation was not good. With a turn of his body, he prepared to flee in the direction he came from.
"Want to leave? How can it be so easy! "
Seeing that Xing Jue was about to escape, the Spirit Devourer Blade let out a cold cry. The dark soul that was originally wrapped around the Spirit Devourer Blade's blade suddenly surged out and turned into a giant hand. With a terrifying pressure, it pressed down on Xing Jue.
In an instant, Xing Jue felt that his body was being restrained by a powerful force. Not only his body, even his soul force seemed to be restrained. Even though he was flying forward at an extremely fast speed, the black shadow that covered the light had already appeared in his sight. At this moment, Xing Jue seemed to smell the scent of death.
