The Blazing Qilin Sword was created hundreds of years ago by Duan Zhengxian, the ancestor of the Duan family, who was known as the world's best swordsman. Back then, the Fire Kirin ran out of the Lingyun Cave and caused trouble everywhere. In order to save the world, Duan Zhengxian fought the Fire Kirin. After a few hundred rounds, Duan Zhengxian severely injured the Fire Kirin and sliced off one of its scales, causing it to flee. After that, Duan Zhengxian embedded the Fire Kirin's scale on his sword as a memento and renamed it the Blazing Qilin Sword.
However, things did not end with Duan Zhengxian renaming the Blazing Qilin Sword. This was just the beginning.
When Duan Zhengxian's power improved greatly with the Blazing Qilin Sword and his swordsmanship reached a higher level, he finally realized that the scale he sliced off from the Fire Kirin could produce an unbelievable power that helped him improve his power. The longer he held the sword, the more he felt like the sword was controlling his heart. The demonic thoughts would grow and he would not be able to extricate himself.
The demonic thoughts in Duan Zhengxian's heart grew stronger and stronger. Then, he realized that the Fire Kirin was a treasure. If he could taste its flesh, his power would increase by a hundredfold. In order to reach the peak of swordsmanship, he moved to Leshan and waited for the Fire Kirin in the Lingyun Cave for generations. However, even after Duan Zhengxian died of old age, he still did not gain anything. Before he died, he told his son to pass it down to the next generation and wait for the Fire Kirin in the Lingyun Cave.
Unexpectedly, not only did he not get his hands on the Snow Guzzler Saber, but he also got the Blazing Qilin Sword.
With a thought, the Blazing Qilin Sword that was stuck half a foot into the wall flew into his hand.
Holding the hilt of the Fire Qilin Sword, the first thing Ye Xuan felt was not a demonic thought, but a fiery energy coming from the sword. Moreover, this fiery energy faintly penetrated the acupoints of his hand that was holding the sword. Then, as if the remaining medicinal power of the Blood Bodhi in his body was activated, it blended with this energy and entered his meridians at an extremely slow speed.
"No wonder the Fire Qilin Sword can increase a person's strength. It relies on the residual power of the Fire Qilin on this scale." Looking at the Fire Qilin Sword in his hand, Ye Xuan nodded. Then, he sighed, "The Fire Kirin is indeed a mythological beast that is as famous as the godly dragon, the dragon turtle, and the phoenix in Wind and Cloud. Although its blood can't make people immortal like the dragon essence or the phoenix blood, it can give people great strength quickly. A scale that was cut off from its body more than 100 years ago still has so much energy that it can improve one's physique. It's not hard to imagine how powerful the Fire Kirin is. If it wasn't for the fact that it had lost its mind for some reason, causing it to rely on its instincts to act, I'm afraid that no one in this world would be able to control it. I wonder if it has something to do with the Yellow Emperor's dragon vein in the depths of this mysterious underground palace? "
After thinking for a while, Ye Xuan shook his head and waved his right hand. He put the Fire Qilin Sword into his storage space.
Although the Fire Qilin Sword was a God-level weapon, it was also a weapon full of evilness. It could affect the mind of the wielder unknowingly. Duan Zhengxian, Duan Shuai, and Duan Lang all showed that the sword was a good sword, but it was also an evilness.
Although Ye Xuan had always been proud of his mental cultivation, he didn't see the personality changes of Duan Zhengxian, Duan Shuai, and even Duan Lang before they got the Fire Qilin Sword. Martial Artists who could cultivate to the Inborn Realm would have a mind as strong as iron. However, the Fire Qilin Sword could even affect Duan Zhengxian, who was known as the world's best swordsman. Therefore, although Ye Xuan put it away, he didn't plan to use it as a weapon. He didn't want to be affected by it unknowingly.
After putting the Fire Qilin Sword away, Ye Xuan looked in the direction of the cave where Nie Renwang had left. His eyes flickered, and then he walked in another direction.
If it was in the past … He could still predict that the Fire Qilin would catch up to Nie Renwang and knock him off the Snow Guzzle Manic Blade. However, he had changed the plot because Duan Shuai was dead. According to the original plot, after Duan Shuai and Nie Renwang were dragged into the Lingyun Cave by the Fire Qilin, not only were they fine, but they also found the Dragon Vein. In order to protect the Dragon Vein, they stayed in the underground palace until the Japanese Emperor came to snatch the Dragon Vein.
However, Duan Shuai had already been killed by him. Although Nie Renwang didn't die, the plot had started to deviate. In this underground palace with countless forks, a single wrong choice could lead to death in the mouth of the Fire Qilin, let alone finding the Dragon Vein.
As for why Ye Xuan didn't want to find the Dragon Vein, it was very simple. It was because the Dragon Vein was said to be the remains left behind by the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan after his death. It was related to the safety of China. If the Dragon Vein was broken, China would face a great calamity, and the world would change hands. Therefore, he couldn't take it or touch it.
Of course, these weren't the most important. The most important thing was that the Fire Qilin was actually the guardian beast of the Dragon Vein. With Ye Xuan's current strength, he couldn't kill the Fire Qilin at all. Didn't he see that even Duan Shuai, who was in the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm, was snatched away by the Fire Qilin like a little chick?
Ye Xuan faintly felt that the Fire Qilin might be far more powerful than what he saw now. Didn't he see that even if the Fire Qilin's hundred-year-old scales were shaved off, it would still be so powerful? Even if Sakra wanted to kill the sleeping Divine Dragon that was seriously injured for some reason and would only wake up once every thousand years after twenty years, he would need seven Heavenly Weapons, as well as many experts in Elysium and Jianghu, before he finally succeeded in slaying the dragon. It could be seen that these Divine Beasts were just seriously injured or lost their consciousness for some unknown reason and stayed in the World of Clouds and Clouds.
Perhaps everyone had underestimated the Fire Qilin. This Divine Beast was completely at the level of a Celestial Immortal. If the Fire Qilin could regain its consciousness one day, then its power would definitely not be something that a mere mortal could resist. Even a person who had cultivated for thousands of years was still a human after all. It was impossible to resist the power of an Immortal.
In any case, he still couldn't deal with the Fire Qilin, so thinking about this was a waste of time. After shaking his head, Ye Xuan once again identified a direction and scurried into the cave.
Turning left and right, he walked in the cave for nearly ten hours. Finally, the roars of several wild beasts entered Ye Xuan's ears. Ye Xuan hurriedly quickened his pace and walked outside. Turning a corner, he saw a cave entrance covered by vines appearing in front of him. A few rays of sunlight were shining into the cave through the vines.
With a thought, the vines that covered the cave entrance were immediately pushed aside as if a pair of large hands. A gust of hot sunlight poured onto the ground of the cave entrance. Ye Xuan walked to the cave entrance and discovered that the cave entrance was actually in the middle of a cliff. This cave entrance was at least one or two hundred feet from the bottom of the cliff. At the bottom of the cliff was a dense forest. The roars of the wild beasts that he heard previously came from below.
Looking at the sea of green trees below and bathing in the sunlight, Ye Xuan, who had been a mouse for a few days, couldn't help but roar, "I, Hu Hansan, am back again!"
