Mind Intent
Ye Fei and Bai Ling were the only two living people inside the Demon Sealing Tower. Ye Fei and Bai Ling jumped in fright when an old voice suddenly rang out.
Bai Ling's face had already turned deathly pale. She was so scared that she couldn't speak. Her master had told her long ago that a powerful demon was sealed inside the Demon Sealing Tower.
"Who is it?!"
A few drops of cold sweat appeared on Ye Fei's forehead. Although he was only a first-stage Martial Master, he could even fight Li Xin, who was a seventh-stage Martial Master, with the help of his mutated divine fire and Devouring Spirit Sword.
At this moment, Ye Fei couldn't sense the existence of the person who had spoken. How powerful was this person? It was very likely that he was a powerful existence that surpassed a Martial Master.
"Hehe, that little girl over there, don't be too afraid. Although this old man is being suppressed by the Demon Sealing Tower, I have no intention of harming you." The old voice rang out again.
However, Bai Ling didn't feel at ease when she heard this voice. Instead, she became even more afraid. Her voice trembled as she said, "Ye Fei, we're finished. This demon is too terrifying. Not only has he survived thousands of years, but he can also peek into our inner thoughts."
Seeing that Bai Ling didn't even call him Junior Brother and directly called him by his name, Ye Fei knew how terrified Bai Ling was at this moment.
"Sister Bai, don't be afraid. I've harmed you this time, but I promise that as long as I'm still alive, I won't let this demon harm you. Oh right, do you know where this demon came from?" Ye Fei asked with a serious expression.
To be able to survive thousands of years without dying, this Demon Sealing Tower was definitely not suppressing a Martial Ancestor or a Martial Honor. It was definitely an expert stronger than a Martial Honor. Only such an expert could survive thousands of years without dying.
Ye Fei's heart sank. He knew that he was most likely going to be in trouble this time.
"Hey, you little brat. Since you took this old man's Devouring Soul Sword, you should have obtained the information I left in the sword. You actually don't know who this old man is?"
Inside the Demon Sealing Tower, the old man's voice sounded once more. In the air, a hunched figure that looked like an old man with one foot in the grave slowly walked out from the stone door!
That's right, it had penetrated through. The old man that had appeared wasn't a physical body. It was merely a strand of spiritual consciousness. However, just by relying on spiritual consciousness, he was able to materialize a physical body. From this, one could see how terrifying this old man's strength was.
How could Ye Fei not understand that the old man in front of him was a terrifying demon who had surpassed the level of a Martial Saint? Then, Ye Fei was extremely shocked.
"Senior, what are you saying? This Spirit-devouring Sword belongs to you!" Ye Fei was greatly shocked.
He was not the only one who was shocked.
Bai Ling also looked at Ye Fei in shock and exclaimed, "Ye Fei, the sword in your hand is actually the Evil Sword King's Devouring Spirit Sword!"
"Evil Sword King? So, you're not the first one to obtain this sword. You obtained it from someone else. No wonder you don't know who this old man is. Seeing how weak you are, you must have been set up by someone. "
The old man shook his head. His turbid eyes flickered with the light of wisdom.
Ye Fei didn't have time to answer the old man's words. Even if he was going to die, he wanted to be a ghost that understood everything. Ye Fei stared at Bai Ling and continued asking, "Sister Bai, what does the Evil Sword King's Devouring Spirit Sword have to do with the Demon Sealing Tower?"
Bai Ling looked at the old man with some fear. Seeing that the old man didn't have any hostility or killing intent, she forced herself to calm down and explain, "I'm also not sure what the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword is used for. However, my master told me that two hundred years ago, the Evil Sword King killed his way into our Wu Province in order to break into the Demon Sealing Tower! For some reason, the Palace Lord at that time and my master's master risked their lives to stop the Evil Sword King. In the end, both sides suffered great losses! "
So that's how it was!
After Bai Ling's explanation, the Evil Demon Sword King's madness from back then had a reasonable explanation. The reason why Zhao Qianjun challenged the nine sects and four prefectures of the State of Zhao was to find the Demon Sealing Tower and then break in!
At that time, the upper echelons of Tianyun Wufu must have received information that the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword in Zhao Qianjun's hands was the key to opening the Demon Sealing Tower. Therefore, they risked their lives to stop and even snatch it. In the end, neither side had a good ending.
After understanding all this, Ye Fei suddenly saw a glimmer of hope in his despair. He raised the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword in his hand and faced the old man. He asked sincerely, "Senior, since this Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword is yours, I'm returning it to its rightful owner. I wonder if Senior can let me and my senior sister go?"
Ye Fei was very careful and his tone was very respectful.
He understood that when facing a terrifying demon that had been sealed for thousands of years, even ten of him added together wouldn't be able to compare to a single finger of the old man.
Since force couldn't solve the problem, Ye Fei began to try to negotiate with the old man and ask for a way to leave the Demon Sealing Tower.
The old man's eyes flashed with wisdom. He saw through Ye Fei's intentions with a glance. He didn't get angry and his tone was still very calm. He said, "Young man, you want this old man to help you escape from here! Unfortunately, if you had brought the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword in a thousand years ago, this old man would have had a way. Five hundred years ago, if you had been ruthless and sacrificed ninety-nine Revered Martial Artists, this old man would have had a way to escape! "
"But now, this old man is like a lamp that has run out of oil. Not only am I unable to continue moving this Demon Sealing Tower to find a way to escape, but I also can't help you escape from here. You will end up like me, trapped here until you die!" The old man finally sighed helplessly.
These words made Bai Ling's body tremble. She had an expression of despair. She was still so young, but she was really going to be trapped here and die of old age alone. Then, like the others who had broken into this place, she would become a pile of bones in the end!
"No, there must be a way. Heaven never bars one's way! Senior, since you were able to send the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword out, that proves that you definitely have a way to break the seal of the Demon Sealing Tower. If we are willing to help you escape, can you take us out? "Ye Fei gritted his teeth and said.
In order to survive, he was going all out. Even if it meant releasing a terrifying demon, he wouldn't hesitate!
As if he understood Ye Fei's thoughts, the old man nodded. Then, he shook his head, "This old man was able to send the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword out that year, but I have already exhausted all my strength. Now, this old man is only a thought. I no longer have any ability to help you! Consider yourself unlucky. If you were the first to obtain the Spirit-devouring Spirit Sword, you would have understood the message that this old man left in the sword. If you are not a Revered Martial Artist or have comprehended sword intent, it is best not to casually barge in! "
Hearing this, Ye Fei's heart instantly brightened. Even if he was in such a desperate situation, he would not be discouraged and would not give up!
As long as he had a breath left in him, he would fight for it!
Ye Fei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice to the old man, "Senior, although I do not have the strength of a Revered Martial Artist, I have already comprehended sword intent. I wonder if I can be of help to you?"
Boom!
A surge of Sword Qi surged out from Ye Fei's body. Within the Sword Qi, there was a faint Devouring Power. He had completely released the Devouring Sword Intent Seed in his body.
This was the only way that Ye Fei could think of to save himself. Of course, he would not continue to hide it.
"The Sword Intent Seed. Junior Brother Ye, he has actually comprehended the Sword Intent Seed!" Bai Ling was extremely shocked. Although he had already expected this, Bai Ling's heart was still somewhat shaken when he felt the terrifying Sword Qi ripple from Ye Fei's body.
At this moment, the old man's expressionless face revealed a hint of emotion. He stared closely at Ye Fei and said, "Genius! Young man, you are clearly only a Martial Master Level 1, but you have actually comprehended the Sword Intent Seed. No, it is not as simple as the Sword Intent Seed in your body. There is something else in your body! "
Whoosh!
The moment he finished speaking, the old man had already appeared in front of Ye Fei. His hand instantly reached out to grab him. Ye Fei's heart was filled with shock.
