324: Chapter 318 Communication 324: Chapter 318 Communication Blood light piled upon itself, like a collapsing mountain and a sweeping tide.
Chen Hai’s flas had been suppressed to the extent that they only reached around two or three ters from him.
If this trend were to continue, maybe after another ten or twenty minutes, he wouldn’t be able to hold on and would be swallowed by the encompassing blood light.
Seeing this situation, Chen Hai also felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
He had promised a lot, even making unreliable promises like chopping down the Xuanyuan Sword, the Human Path Sword.
Unfortunately, there were still no responses from the Hongming Blade.
“Hongming, as long as you’re willing to follow , and once I beco stronger and have the chance, I will help you slash down Emperor Xuanyuan…”
He himself hardly believed what he had said.
But at this urgent mont, he could no longer afford to care too much.
After all, the existence of the legendary Emperor Xuanyuan was still unknown; no one could be certain.
His promise was nothing but empty words, not sothing he even took seriously himself.
The reason he told such a brazen lie was only because he thought that if the Hongming Blade truly possessed spiritual wisdom, his bluffs might just evoke a response.
No matter how fierce or malevolent the blade was, as long as it was willing to communicate with him,
it would undoubtedly be good news for Chen Hai under the present circumstances.
After all, with just the Little Five Thunder Skill and the Fla Power, he was barely managing to fend off the cascading blood light from Hongming Blade’s strikes and was already in grave danger.
If he were to be invaded by the all-encompassing blood light, what would be the consequences?
Chen Hai dared not think about it.
He might beco corroded by the blood light, turn into a Blade Slave, and beco like one of the monsters in this tomb.
“Is this the extent of your petty skills?
You want to chop down the Yellow Emperor?
Are you joking?” A muffled, strange-sounding voice suddenly resonated in Chen Hai’s mind.
Using the enticing prospect of slaying the Hongming Blade’s arch-enemy, the Xuanyuan Sword, Chen Hai wanted to communicate with it, yet it had remained silent.
Now, when Chen Hai boasted about slaying the Yellow Emperor, the Hongming Blade actually responded.
It seed that in the depths of Hongming Blade’s being, its resentnt toward the Yellow Emperor might even surpass that for the Xuanyuan Sword.
“Is my strength nothing but petty skills?
Is the Yellow Emperor that strong?”
Although the voice that echoed within him was discourteous, Chen Hai was still pleased to finally have elicited a response.
“Not even an Immortal, nor have you forged an Immortal Body?
In front of the Yellow Emperor, a re breath of his could annihilate you.
So tell , is he strong or not?”
With thick disdain in its tone, Hongming spoke again.
Speaking of the Yellow Emperor, its words were filled with seething resentnt.
Forged from the sa furnace as the Xuanyuan Sword, it was inherently destined to be enemies with the Xuanyuan Sword, crossing paths as adversaries.
Hatred wasn’t sothing worth ntioning.
But the Yellow Emperor, who had created it and given it life, ultimately rejected it, intending to destroy it?
Though the blade managed to escape as a blood-colored Cloud Magpie soaring into the heavens, the incident remained its obsessions, a lifelong pain…
“Alright, Hongming, I admit I am weak!”
“But if I’m so weak, how co you haven’t managed to finish off after such a long ti?”
“With your power, turning into a Cloud Magpie and fleeing from the Yellow Emperor, it seems that his strength isn’t much to speak of either, right?”
Since Hongming was finally willing to communicate, Chen Hai naturally wouldn’t argue forcibly with it.
Twisting his brain around, he smiled and questioned in response.
“You know shit, the heavens and earth have changed, and I have been sealed in this underground tomb for countless years, my strength has long since deteriorated to less than a tenth of its forr self!”
“If I were still in my pri, the mont you saw my true form, you would have offered your flesh and blood and obediently turned into a Blade Slave!”
“Besides, the Blade Slave you are using to make fight you is just an ordinary person, who can’t possibly bring out my full strength!”
Seeing Chen Hai belittle himself, Hongming seed to get a bit anxious.
It retorted in frustration,
“And I might say, at my peak, I could lift the heavens with one hand and capture the sun and the moon with the other, couldn’t I?”
“Who can’t talk big?”
“Hongming, want to believe that you’re really strong?
Not showing so real skills?
Do you think I’ll believe you?”
With a chuckle that clearly had a provocative tone, Chen Hai spoke.
Now, although he was still resisting the erosion of the blood light that filled the sky, ever since he began communicating with Hongming, the pressure from the blood light had obviously lessened significantly.
Without Hongming, the Emperor’s Corpse was simply useless, and a few Corpse Transformation Talismans should be able to easily dispose of it.
It looked like he was wielding his blade, sending out waves of blood light, but in reality, it was all Hongming using its power to fight against Chen Hai.
Communicating with Chen Hai was clearly a way for it to consu part of his power.
In such a situation, even if it did not intentionally go easy, the power it used to attack Chen Hai was still weaker by more than a notch or two.
“What do you an I don’t have real skills?”
“I’m telling you, if I had enough mana to squander, I could drain all the Evil Qi from this place and cleave the heavens with one blade…”
Hongming hurriedly argued.
As the most notorious Fierce Blade from ancient tis, even in its current downtrodden and weakened state, it still had its own unique pride!
“Look!
There goes the boasting again!”
“‘Cleaving the heavens’?
I can lend you my mana; take a swing, and let’s see?”
“Seeing is believing.
In front of my eyes, you want to prove your strength?”
“Whether you want to continue staying underground or you want to follow out to see the world, I’m all ears!”
…
Unleashing his art of persuasion, Chen Hai spoke in a ceaseless flow, like the endless waters of a river.
“Ignorant boy, to doubt the power of Hongming.
Fine, I’ll grant your wish, let you open your eyes and see the world!”
As the famous and hot-tempered Fierce Blade from ancient tis, Hongming couldn’t stand to be provoked.
Chen Hai’s words completely enraged it!
Only a flash of Blood Light was seen, and the Hongming Blade, which had been held by the Emperor’s Corpse, was already slipping out of its grasp.
A few ters away from Chen Hai, at the edge of the sea of flas, the Hongming Blade fell straight down, its tip piercing a few inches into the ground.
“How dare you, I…” The sudden turn of events made the Emperor’s Corpse bellow in anger.
However, his outcry only halfway erged before coming to an abrupt halt.
Imdiately after, his body along with his golden thread robe began to disintegrate, turning into a dust and scattered bones, which fell in front of the dragon-headed throne.
The main reason this object could last for a thousand years and still retain a bit of spiritual wisdom was because it was supported by the power of the Hongming Blade.
Now, the Hongming Blade had left him.
Without the blade’s power as support, he was instantly reverted to his original form.
Chen Hai, on the other hand, when he saw the Hongming Blade lying at an angle in the ground a few ters away,
He hesitated for a mont, then took big strides toward Hongming, reached out his hand, and placed it on the hilt of the blade.
As the saying goes, fortune favors the brave.
Whether this action would bring him danger, he didn’t know.
All he knew was that he was fated to be with this blade.
If he could subdue the Hongming Blade, even if it ant taking a risk, what did it matter?
