The finger was simple, but it contained an incomparable rhythm, as if it was in harmony with everything in the world. It pointed directly at Chen Zong's Qi Sea.
Chen Zong could feel it, but he could not dodge or defend himself.
That feeling of helplessness deeply impacted Chen Zong's mind, causing him to sink into despair bit by bit.
Could it be that his cultivation was going to be crippled just like that?
Just like how he destroyed the others?
Was this karma?
Countless thoughts came to his mind in an instant, but Chen Zong did not give up.
Burst!
He kept unleashing his power. He could not accept such an outcome.
However, his opponent was too strong. Even if Chen Zong unleashed all the power he had, he could only shake him. He could not break free.
It was not that Chen Zong did not want to, but that he could not. If he had the power of blood, Chen Zong would burn it without hesitation. He would burn it completely in exchange for more power to get out of this predicament.
However, Chen Zong did not have any powerful blood.
What should he do?
Countless thoughts flashed in his mind. They were so crazy that they were about to explode.
Chen Zong kept thinking. Finally, he fixed his eyes on the black mark.
At this moment, this was the only way to save himself. However, this was like driving a tiger to devour a wolf. Chen Zong had no idea what the consequences would be.
The Sword-grinding Mountain Master!
If the spiritual soul of the Sword-grinding Mountain Master appeared and occupied his body, he would definitely be able to unleash more power. It should not be difficult to break free from this master. Chen Zong guessed that this master was a Saint-level master.
Chen Zong felt helpless that a Saint-level master was targeting him.
In short, he could not deal with such a master, but he was not willing to be treated like this. He could only take the risk.
He would use the Sword-grinding Mountain Master to deal with his opponent.
There were two outcomes. The first was that the Sword-grinding Mountain Master could break free. The second was that the Sword-grinding Mountain Master failed.
If the Lord of Sword Sharpening Mountain won, his body would be occupied in the future. As for whether he could take it back, Chen Zong was not sure. Luck was very important.
If it was the latter, then there was nothing to worry about.
In the end, it was a gamble.
The seal was lifted!
Although he wasn't sure if the seal could really seal the black mark, it was better to remove it first.
Godly Descent Secret Technique!
Chen Zong unleashed his Divine Arrival Secret Technique to the fullest extent without any hesitation. This was because Chen Zong still had a sliver of hope in his heart, which was to use the Divine Arrival Secret Technique to borrow the power of the black mark or the Sword-grinding Mountain Master without alerting him.
This was undoubtedly the best.
However, Chen Zong immediately knew that the sliver of hope in his heart did not exist at all. When the God's Descent secret technique was fully exerted, a powerful force erupted and surged out from the black mark like a flood bursting a dam. It was vast and surging like the Milky Way pouring down.
Within the black mark, a figure also appeared. His eyes were extremely bright, as if a God or Devil had descended.
It was an irresistible force that was extremely powerful. It directly occupied Chen Zong's Spiritual Sea and pushed Chen Zong's spirit aside. However, this time, Chen Zong did not faint. He was just pushed aside by force.
It was much better than the previous time when he fainted directly. In this way, it was not impossible to take back his body.
It all happened in a flash. From the moment Chen Zong removed the seal of the black mark to the moment he unleashed the Divine Arrival Secret Technique to the fullest extent, to the moment the Sword-grinding Mountain Master's spirit appeared and occupied Chen Zong's body. The entire process seemed to take a long time, but in fact, it was only an extremely short moment. It was so short that it was indescribable.
Chen Zong's aura suddenly changed greatly. His eyes also changed. Black and white were extremely distinct. They were so black that they were so deep that they devoured all light like a black hole. His eyes were so white that they were extremely holy. The contrast between black and white was so clear that it made each other even more shocking.
His aura continued to surge, and it was extremely overbearing. There was also an indescribable darkness that spread out.
The expression of the expert who had grabbed Chen Zong's body suddenly changed. The finger that was pointing at Chen Zong's Qi Sea also exploded in an instant. Its speed more than doubled, and its power more than doubled.
He was worried that something unexpected would happen. It was obvious that Chen Zong's aura had changed. It was completely different from before. It was like a terrifying aura that erupted from the abyss. It was as if a great demon king had come into being.
It was blocked!
The terrifying finger that was pointing at Chen Zong's Qi Sea was blocked.
It exploded!
The extremely terrifying Sword Will also exploded in an instant, shattering the space. An amazing force surged, as if there was a big explosion. It blasted out a pitch-black space crack.
Two figures flew out, and Chen Zong also escaped from the expert's grasp.
"Who are you?" The gray-haired middle-aged expert frowned. There was a look of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes. He stared at Chen Zong solemnly. He immediately felt that the other party had changed. Although he still looked like the same person, it was as if he had changed into another person. It was just that his appearance and figure were the same, but his aura was completely different.
"The Ancient Sealed World? I haven't been here for many years." A touch of vicissitudes flashed in the depths of Chen Zong's eyes. It was as if the world had been turned upside down. Immediately, that pair of eyes full of vicissitudes stared at the face of the middle-aged man in front of him. His extremely deep eyes made the middle-aged man narrow his eyes involuntarily. He was extremely fearful.
What was going on?
It was as if he had changed into another person. Such an aura and such a gaze made the middle-aged man feel frightened for no reason.
"He has actually grown to such an extent that even a quasi-saint has to take action?" In fact, this was not Chen Zong. It was the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord who had occupied Chen Zong's body. With just one confrontation, he had seen through the other party's details.
Quasi-saint!
What was a Quasi-saint?
The so-called Quasi-saint was a cultivator who had failed to break through to the Saint Stage but had survived. They had surpassed the level of the Heaven Stage but were unable to truly reach the Saint Stage. They could only take half a step into the threshold of the Saint Stage and had grasped a trace of power that only a Saint Stage expert had. This was an essential difference from a Heaven Stage expert.
The outcome of failing to break through to the Saint Stage was often terrible. However, it was different in the inner universe. If one failed to break through, there was still a possibility of surviving and becoming a Quasi-saint, unable to break through to the Saint Stage for the rest of their lives.
There were no Quasi-saints in the outer universe because it was very difficult to break through to the Saint Stage in the outer universe. Once the breakthrough failed, the outcome would be death. Quasi-saints only existed in the inner universe.
Even so, there were very few Quasi-saints. There were even fewer Quasi-saints than Heaven Stage experts. However, as a whole, there were more Quasi-saints than Saints.
This was because Quasi-saints possessed part of the power of a Saint Stage expert. For cultivators below the Quasi-saint level, Quasi-saints were not much different from Saints. In any case, Quasi-saints were not a match for Quasi-saints and would be easily suppressed.
Chen Zong's strength was also at the level of Heaven Stage experts, but he was easily suppressed by this person. This was enough to show how astonishing a Quasi-saint was.
In the Spirit Sea, Chen Zong's spirit was pushed to the side. However, he could still sense and hear the sounds outside.
Quasi-saint!
It turned out that the person who was dealing with him was a Quasi-saint and not a true Saint Stage expert.
A Quasi-saint was already so strong. Was the gap between him and a Heaven Stage expert so huge?
Then how strong was a true Saint Stage expert?
When Chen Zong was possessed previously, he was unconscious. Although there were records of the Heavenly Sword of Will afterward, it wasn't so clear.
Now, he could more directly and even personally experience the strength of Quasi-saints and even Saint Stage experts. This was even more helpful for his own improvement.
Pressure!
When the Quasi-saint from the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land faced the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord, he felt an astonishing pressure for no reason. It was as if he was facing a true Saint Stage expert.
With his rich experience, he immediately understood that there was an ancient and powerful spirit hidden in this person's body. It should be the spirit of a Saint Stage expert. When it saw that this person was in danger, it appeared and borrowed this person's body.
His guess was partially correct, but partially wrong. This ancient and powerful spirit of a Saint Stage expert wasn't actually protecting Chen Zong. It was trying to possess him, and it succeeded.
"Sir, I'm Quasi-saint from the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, Lord Jin Xuan." The Quasi-saint hurriedly defended himself. He first mentioned the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land. That was a Holy Land, a powerful force with true Saint Stage experts. Moreover, there was more than one of them. He wanted to show off his imposing manner to intimidate the other party to a certain extent. Then, he talked about his other identity. He was an important figure in the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land. "But I wonder how I should address you?"
"Heavenly Dragon Holy Land?" The Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord's gaze was deep and profound. However, he didn't answer the other party's question. Instead, he said, "Is that old thing Ancestor Heavenly Dragon still alive?"
The Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord's rhetorical question instantly shocked the Quasi-saint Lord Jin Xuan.
Ancestor Heavenly Dragon!
That was the strongest expert of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land. He was also the founder of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land. He was powerful and had a high status. Many people knew about him, but they were all legends. A Saint Stage expert who dared to call Ancestor Heavenly Dragon an old thing, what did that mean?
It meant that he might be an expert from the same era as Ancestor Heavenly Dragon. Moreover, he might be acquainted with him.
"Senior, since he's an acquaintance of Ancestor Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, then this is a misunderstanding." Lord Jin Xuan hurriedly said. Although he was a Quasi-saint, he didn't have the confidence to fight against an ancient Saint Stage expert. Who knew what kind of unique methods the Quasi-saint Lord had. "Junior will take his leave first. Go back and tell Ancestor Heavenly Dragon. Maybe Ancestor Heavenly Dragon will come and look for senior to talk about the old days."
There was no threat in his tone, but there was a hint of warning in his voice.
Ancestor Heavenly Dragon!
Ancestor Heavenly Dragon was an ancient Saint Stage expert. An ordinary Saint Stage expert couldn't be compared to him.
"You should stay. As for that old thing Ancestor Heavenly Dragon, when the time is right, I will look for him." The Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord smiled faintly. His eyes became deeper and deeper. The light that shot out from his eyes made Lord Jin Xuan's heart jump. He instinctively felt that something was wrong. Without hesitation, he immediately burst out with extreme speed and wanted to escape.
However, how could the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord let him go? A Quasi-saint's Divine Spirit was a great tonic. After devouring it, the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord's Divine Spirit would recover greatly. It would also increase the strength of the body.
When the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord's Divine Spirit and recovering his strength, he would be able to hunt down those Divine Spirits and extract their Divine Essences. He would be able to cultivate the fourth level of the Fiendgod Sword Codex that the Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord's Divine Spirit a million years ago.
