Facing the attack of the broken sword, Wutian didn't move. He watched on with interest.
The negative emotions emitted by the broken sword could indeed invade a person's body and mind, causing them to gradually become irritable and violent.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely be affected to a certain degree.
But to Wutian's current state of mind, this was completely negligible.
Seeing the broken sword approach his chest, Wutian's figure flashed as he calmly dodged.
Woosh!
With the sound of breaking air, the broken sword brushed past Wutian's shoulder. The sharp edge of the sword tore open a hole in his clothes.
Moreover, in an extremely strange manner, the broken sword quickly turned around and cut down at Wutian once more!
Seeing this, Wutian's interest grew even stronger. After dealing with the broken sword for some time, he finally understood the general situation.
Before the broken sword was destroyed, it should have been an Imperial Armament. But now, the strength it displayed was equal to the all-out attack of a perfect Divine Transformation realm cultivator.
In truth, this was already inconceivable.
This was because an Imperial Armament that hadn't given birth to a Divine Spirit wouldn't have much use once it was destroyed besides being reforged.
But here, not only were these broken Imperial Armaments not trash, but the strength they displayed was several times greater than when they were complete.
However, what left Wutian puzzled was that although the broken sword didn't have a high intelligence and was completely relying on its instincts to kill, the fluctuations it emitted were very real.
In the end, had the broken sword given birth to a Divine Spirit, or was there some other reason?
While he was deep in thought, Wutian stretched out his arm, unbiased, and his power gushed out, firmly grasping the broken sword in his hand.
"Mm?"
The moment the broken sword entered Wutian's hand, he immediately felt a stabbing pain rush through his heart like a tide. Looking at it, his eyebrows arched up. There was a faint trace of surprise in his eyes.
To be more accurate, Wutian felt that this was inconceivable.
Because he saw a strand of blood slowly flowing out between the broken sword and his palm. This meant that the broken sword had cut open his palm at the instant it entered his hand!
The defense of Wutian's flesh had reached the half-Unparalleled Realm. Even a fully awakened Royal Weapon would not be able to leave a hole on it.
However, this broken sword was able to do so easily.
"Not only is its power stronger, even its sharpness is better than when it was intact. It seems that the so-called strange creatures are more difficult to deal with than I thought."
Wutian muttered. Energy gushed out from his body, accompanied by an ear-piercing metallic sound. The broken sword shattered, turning into fine powder. And on his palm, there were indeed two small bloodstains.
"Fortunately, not only did its hardness not increase, it actually decreased. Otherwise, with my strength, it would take me quite a bit of effort to destroy it. However, I think I need to find out whether the spirit ripples in the broken sword are from the Saint Spirit or not."
As his eyes flickered, Wutian took a step forward and continued to rush into the depths.
Not long after, a black figure entered his sight. From the silhouette, it should be a middle-aged man. He lowered his head and stood motionless on the ground. His hair was disheveled, and it was difficult to see his face clearly.
"Hu Tie, damn you, why are you loitering here? I've been looking for you for a long time."
Wutian was extremely curious. Just as he was about to go forward and take a look, he suddenly heard a shout from afar. Then, he saw a burly man in white running from the depths. In a few breaths, he stopped beside the black figure.
It was also at this moment that the black figure suddenly raised his head. Without saying a word, he punched out and blasted towards the burly man in white's head!
The burly man in white's expression suddenly changed. Without thinking, he quickly retreated and roared, "Hu Tie, what are you doing?"
However, the black figure did not seem to hear him. His body suddenly rushed out and charged towards the burly man in white. It was also at this moment that the black hair on his head fluttered. Wutian finally saw his true face.
It was a very cold face. His unfocused eyes were like the eyes of a dead person, without any color.
At the same time, the burly man in white saw all this and could not help but curse immediately, "Damn it! Even you have been assimilated. "
As he spoke, he waved his hand and a blood-stained broadsword immediately appeared. Then, the burly man in white grabbed the broadsword and did not retreat. Instead, he advanced and slashed fiercely at the black-clothed man!
What surprised Wutian the most was that the black-clothed man did not dodge in the face of the sharp broadsword. As usual, he used his fist to attack.
With a puff, the black-clothed man was directly split into two halves. Blood splattered all over the ground!
"Hu Tie, I am very sorry. If I kill you today, more people will die in your hands in the future." The burly man in white held the broadsword and bowed to the dead black-clothed man. Then, he glanced at Wutian from afar. Ignoring the dead body on the ground, he turned around and left.
Seeing this scene, Wutian was very confused.
From the burly man in white's expression and his initial curses, Wutian could tell that the dead black-clothed man was very likely his companion.
However, he could not understand why the black-clothed man would suddenly attack him.
Also, when he saw the black-clothed man's face, why did the burly man in white make such a quick decision to kill him?
"It seems that I have missed something." Wutian mumbled to himself. He began to search Yuan Doufeng's memory again to see if there was any relevant information.
After a while, Wutian's eyes had a touch of understanding.
It turned out that the mind fluctuations and various negative emotions emitted by the strange creatures could not only affect a person's state of mind, but also gradually corrode a person's mind, causing them to be gradually assimilated. In the end, they would become an emotionless killing machine.
To put it simply, as long as a person was assimilated, there was no difference between them and the strange creatures.
Therefore, before coming to the first battle zone, it was best to train the state of mind.
This was especially true for those who had strong killing intent and strong desires. They were the easiest to assimilate.
After learning this, Wutian continued to move forward. When he passed by the black-clothed man's corpse, he buried it in the ground.
Not long after, he finally encountered the second strange creature. It was a piece of flesh the size of a palm. It had obviously existed for countless years, but the blood had not solidified. It was as if it had just fallen from an ancient ferocious beast!
Moreover, what surprised Wutian was that this piece of flesh, like the Heavenly Bridge, could actually speak the human language.
Needless to say, this was an intelligent creature.
After much difficulty confining the flesh in the void, Wutian immediately summoned Little Wu Hao and asked him to analyze it carefully.
The result told Wutian that the flesh had indeed given birth to a 'spirit'. Moreover, it was similar to the Innate Holy Spirit and the Acquired Holy Spirit in the Holy Weapon.
Little Wu Hao said that the strange creatures and the Acquired Holy Spirit were the same. No matter how many years had passed, they would not grow and would always remain in their initial state.
As for the intelligent creatures, they were no different from the Innate Holy Spirit. They would grow with the passage of time.
Moreover, Little Wu Hao also revealed that this was not the key point. The most important point was that the intelligent creatures could devour the flesh of humans or the bodies of the strange creatures to increase their strength.
After learning this, Wutian waved his hand and was about to crush the flesh.
At this moment, an ear-piercing metallic sound reverberated. Immediately after, a blood-red longsword materialized in front of Wutian. Waves of joy and longing spread out along with it.
"God Slayer?" Wutian was stunned.
"Little Wutian, the strange creatures and intelligent creatures are of great benefit to the God Slayer. Let it devour as much as it wants! Who knows, it might evolve into a Tribulation Holy Weapon soon, "Little Wu Hao said.
Hearing this, Wutian looked at the God Slayer and asked, "Is that so?"
Unexpectedly, the God Slayer seemed to be able to understand. The sword swayed up and down as if it was nodding in agreement.
With a thought, he moved the flesh in front of the God Slayer. Wutian's eyes revealed a strange light as he said, "Try it first."
After receiving the order, the God Slayer did not hesitate. The sword tip directly sank into the flesh. In the blink of an eye, this intelligent creature turned into ashes and scattered on the ground!
After that, a wave of incomparable desire spread out from the God Slayer's body.
Wutian was overjoyed. He did not expect the God Slayer to be able to devour intelligent creatures.
From Yuan Doufeng's memories, he understood that the strange creatures and intelligent creatures in the first battle zone were endless. As long as the God Slayer kept devouring them, it would only be a matter of time before it evolved into a Tribulation Holy Weapon!
Immediately after, he hurriedly checked the Hunter's Ring. There were 21 additional battle merits in it.
This result made him rather excited.
Before entering the first battle zone, Wutian had planned to use the Saint-level Killing Taboo to accumulate battle merits as quickly as possible. But now, he would rather spend a little more time to upgrade the God Slayer while accumulating battle merits.
After that, Wutian held the God Slayer in his hand and began to wander around the first battle zone, unleashing a crazy massacre.
After half a day, he was finally able to confirm that the strongest strange life forms in the first war zone were only at the perfect Divine Transformation realm. Moreover, the deeper they went, the more strange life forms there were. This caused God Slayer to be overjoyed.
Slaughter!
Blindly slaughtering, never once stopping!
Whether it was in the form of a divine weapon, a strange creature in the form of flesh and blood, or even an assimilated human or fierce beast, as long as the God Slayer swept past them, their essence would be rapidly devoured and turned into ashes.
This battle zone was simply a heaven for the God Slayer!
Just as Wutian was crazily sweeping through the first battle zone with the God Slayer, just as Wutian expected, the law enforcers of Beixuan City finally found out through various channels that on the day before Yuan Hanchi was killed, his cousin, Yuan Doufeng, had entered the City Lord's Mansion many times.
However, because Yuan Hanchi had sent everyone away when he was processing the identity tokens for Wutian and the others, the law enforcers did not know about the matter of Wutian and the others. They only suspected Yuan Doufeng.
After inquiring from various sources, they finally learned from the white-clothed woman of War Merit Temple that Yuan Doufeng had brought several youths into the first battle zone. This caused the law enforcers to become suspicious.
However, the white-clothed woman also said that after they entered the first battle zone, Yuan Hanchi was assassinated. During this time, these youths had not appeared. Thus, it was absolutely impossible for these youths to be the ones who killed Yuan Hanchi.
Hearing this, the law enforcers felt that this was reasonable. But in order to find the true murderer, they would not let go of any useful information. Thus, they had the white-clothed woman draw up a portrait of Wutian and the others and then entered the first battle zone to look for them.
