Martial Supreme Esoterica - C53
Adept Daoyin laughed. “It is precisely because you are a beast king that I am advising you.”
The Beast King asked, “Oh? “What do you mean?”
Daoist Daoyin said, “Those short-sighted bastards wouldn’t even think of releasing that Eternal Demon Head. They wouldn’t risk their lives just to cause a war between Fiendgods!”
The King of Beasts laughed, “Are you trying to provoke me?”
Daoist Daoyin said, “Not exactly. I’m just reminding you that if you want to accomplish your great mission, you can’t lose the Sword of Sacrifice. If you can’t lose the Sword of Sacrifice, you have to release Yan Fengwu and the Sword Spirit.”
The King of Beasts laughed, “Strange.”
Daoist Daoyin frowned. “Oh?” “What do you mean by strange?”
The King of Beasts said, “What I find strange is that as one of the few cultivators in the four great sects who cared for the lives of the world, why would you think for me? It’s as if you wanted to make the demonic god appear.”
Adept Daoyin said, “The future can still be reversed, but the immediate danger to our lives is more important.”
The King of Beasts said, “Well said, in the future things can be turned back. Since you’ve told me your reason, do you think I’ll give you the opportunity to do so?”
Adept Daoyin said, “What you need to do is not to give me a chance, but give yourself a chance.”
The King of Beasts said, “Give me a chance?”
Dao Yin said, “That’s right, give yourself a chance to realize your dream. If you let Yan Fengwu and the Sword Spirit perish in the Myriad Souls Furnace, your dream will never be realized. If you release the two of them, you will have a chance to return.”
“Hmm?” The King of Beasts fell into deep thought.
Daoist Master Daoyin took this opportunity to say, “Unless you feel that releasing these two would threaten your entire plan, Yan Fengwu and the Sword Spirits will completely destroy your plan.”
The King of Beasts laughed out loud, “What a joke, with my thousands of years of cultivation and the support of the Myriad Souls Furnace, how can the mere Yan Fengwu and a sword spirit with an incomplete body obstruct me?”
Daoist Daoyin laughed. “Then what are you worried about?”
The King of Beasts said, “However, I think it’s strange. Since I can guarantee that the sword spirit will not die, then I will just release a sword spirit. What right do you have to let me release both of them? ”
Daoist Master Daoyin laughed, “If you say so, then you only know one thing. You don’t know the second reason! ”
The King of Beasts said, “Why is it like that again?”
Adept Daoyin said, “Because you never progress!”
“You …” The beast king gave a muffled groan and remained silent.
Daoist Master Daoyin said with a smile, “Although only one of the two people with the Life Arts won’t be able to make the shackles disappear, have you forgotten the critical role of the Art of Life?”
“Hmph,” snorted the King of Beasts, “I thought you had some profound insight, how could I forget that. As long as I forcefully release them, wouldn’t that be enough?”
“That’s why I said you only know one thing, but not the other,” Daoyin said. “What you don’t know is that during this long time, Yan Fengwu and the sword spirit have been having an intimate relationship for a long time, and both of them will never give up on each other and live on their own, so even if you forcefully break free from the Heavenly Art of Life, and then kill Yan Fengwu, the sword spirit will definitely risk its life and fight you to the death. At that time, it will be hard to say who will win, but according to the sword spirit’s personality, Yan Fengwu will most likely die because of her love.”
The King of Beasts frowned and fell silent.
Daoist Master Daoyin laughed, “Moreover, it won’t be that easy to undo their technique, because very few people have used such a technique before. No one can guarantee that there won’t be any shackles around after it is unlocked, and once it is untied, the shackles of the Sword of Harmony will disappear as well. At that time, wouldn’t it be worth it?”
The King of Beasts muttered, “Hng hng, good!”
Daoist Daoyin let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. “Good, good, good!”
The King of Beasts bellowed, “However, do you think you can convince me to release the two of them with a few words? You’re underestimating me.”
Dao-Yin was stunned. “Then what are you planning to do?”
The King of Beasts said, “I will only release one of them. As for the other person’s fate, wait until I retrieve the four demon swords and unlock the seal of the Ancestral Endless Devil. Then, we will see how I am feeling. Hahaha!”
Adept Daoyin said, “You still wish to keep all of your cards firmly in your hands.”
The King of Beasts said, “Hahaha, this question seems childish to me. The current me has enough strength and an unparalleled bargaining chip to firmly grasp everything in my hands. This is my inherent choice!”
Adept Daoyin said, “Then who are you planning to release?”
The King of Beasts thought to himself, “I had the intention to release the phoenix martial spirit, but this kid is too smart to control. If I’m not careful, I’ll fall into his trap. But if they were to let the Sword Spirit out, it was because of her special status and the fact that the Myriad Soul Furnace appeared in this world, it would definitely attract the coveting of tens of thousands of people. If those people with ulterior motives chose to take action against her, then there would be many variables that they did not intend to do. This was really embarrassing! “Why not, you choose.”
Adept Daoyin laughed loudly. “If I choose Yan Fengwu, you will release the sword spirits. If I choose Yan Fengwu, you will release Yan Fengwu.”
The Beast King laughed, “That’s right! Since you already know, you might as well choose the one you really want. ”
Adept Daoyin laughed loudly. “Now that we know what he’s thinking, we can’t play any more tricks against him.”
The King of Beasts said, “That’s right.”
Daoist Master Daoyin said, “Moreover, these two have deep feelings for each other. It’s hard to say who will be chosen, but the other person won’t die for love, so …”
The King of Beasts asked, “So?”
Adept Daoyin said, “Thus, we might as well hand over our choice to them.”
The King of Beasts frowned, “Leave it to them.”
“Although the two of them have deep feelings for each other, Yan Fengwu knows the meaning behind those feelings. The sword spirit had thousands of years of experience, and if it was due to an external force that separated them, they would definitely choose to defend their love to the death. However, by making this external force sacrifice themselves for the sake of the other party, the person who is still alive will choose to live for the sake of the other party. ”
The King of Beasts pondered for a moment before replying, “Haha, what you said makes some sense.”
Adept Daoyin said, “Since that’s the case, can’t you make a decision?”
The King of Beasts said, “Then let them make their choice.”
Yan Fengwu and the Sword Spirit had killed four of the four vicious beasts, and just as they were about to search for a way out of the Beast King Hall, they suddenly discovered that the Beast King Hall was actually alive.
The two of them didn’t know that the Beast King Hall was the Myriad Spirit Furnace, but based on Yan Fengwu’s intelligence, they could guess that the Beast King Hall was formed from the souls of all the demonic beasts that had died in the forest.
Thus, they decided that they couldn’t charge out with just the two of them.
The sword spirit was searching for a weak point in the four walls to break through, but the walls were extremely tough. No matter how profound her cultivation was, there was nothing she could do. She could not help but feel anxious.
Yan Fengwu slowly sat down, closing her eyes, as if she were thinking about something that was hard to decide.
Seeing Yan Fengwu sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, his brows tightly locked together. His heart was moved, and he said, “Feng Wu, if you can’t think of a way, then don’t think of it.” Let’s look around and see if there’s anything weak here. ”
Yan Fengwu bitterly smiled. She slowly took the ‘Sacrificial Heart’ sword from her back and gave it to the sword spirit.
The sword spirit frowned, “What are you …”
Yan Fengwu said, “If you take back your power, you might be able to charge out, but with our current cultivations, that’s absolutely impossible.”
The sword spirit said, “What, what are you talking about?”
Yan Fengwu said, “I’ve finally thought it through. In fact, from the very beginning, this matter was a plan to lure the monarch into the urn. That beast king clearly used us to kill the beast in his hands and absorb the soul power of the beast, creating a complete living body for the Beast King Hall.”
The sword spirit said, “What do you mean?”
Yan Fengwu sighed, “I finally understand why the King of Beasts sold out the lives of the beasts in the forest, and I also understand why so many wolf and snake demons would attack us during the mating season between ten thousand beasts. I also understand why the King of Beasts sent out all the demon beasts in the Beast Hall when he knew that one demon general was far from being our match and he sent out three to five demon generals to deal with us and Yan Ling.”
The sword spirit said, “He intentionally sent these demonic beasts to their deaths to increase the power of the Beast King Hall.”
Yan Fengwu said, “Merging the energy of all the demonic beasts together is an extremely powerful ability. Even if you have the ability, you still might not be able to defeat them, much less now.”
The Sword Spirit looked at the sword in Yan Fengwu’s hand, and suddenly laughed, “That’s why you allowed me to regain my strength. But now you’re not afraid, will the Sword Spirit enter this world and cause chaos in this world?”
Yan Fengwu said, “I hesitated at the beginning, but after some consideration, I still feel that it’s better to go by my own heart. After all, in the future, I can rely on everyone’s strength to save my life. Life is the most important thing right now.”
The sword spirit stretched out her hand to caress the sword box as she smiled and said, “You believe me?”
Yan Fengwu said, “I’ve long since stopped suspecting you.”
The sword spirit said, “Do you believe that I have the power to save the world from chaos?”
Yan Fengwu said, “Although I can’t bear it, but …” He raised his head to look at the Sword Spirit and smiled, “I’m willing to carry it!”
The sword spirit felt a wave of warmth in her heart. She bit her lips and smiled, leaving behind tears.
When Yan Fengwu saw this, she let out a faint smile, “What happened to you?”
“I’m happy.” “No one has ever been willing to believe me like this, and no one has ever been willing to bear any burdens for me either.”
Yan Fengwu laughed, “Perhaps it’s for myself.”
“Nope.” The sword spirit said.
“Why not?” Yan Fengwu asked.
“Because I believe in you too!” The sword spirit smiled.
Yan Fengwu handed over the sword in his hand. “Then, before I break my promise, I’ll take back your power.”
The sword in her hand suddenly opened up a crack, and a ray of light shone in.
Before the two of them had the chance to react, the light dispersed and Daoist Master Daoyin revealed himself.
