Chapter 1317: Chapter 1314
Yang Fei fell silent.
After a long ti, he shook his head and said, "I still don’t trust you; your existence is a great potential threat to
and my people. Keeping you around is too dangerous."
The artifact spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace was shocked and hastily said, "No, I absolutely will not harm you or those around you. Besides, with the Soul Binding Rope on , I can never escape your control and would not dare betray you."
Yang Fei said, "That’s just your word. How can I trust it?"
The artifact spirit was almost in tears.
It said helplessly, "I... I have no way to make you believe . Even my forr master, Taoist Wuji, and I were just close friends; we were always cooperators. With my help, he grew quickly and beca stronger, while he earnestly nurtured
with great effort, eventually allowing
to develop spiritual wisdom."
Yang Fei was slightly moved, feeling sowhat longing.
The artifact spirit continued, "Yang Fei, trust . Investing in
will not disappoint you. Besides, you still have unresolved troubles with the Southern Domain cultivators. With the Soul Binding Rope on , I’m currently no threat to you. Why not trust
for a while and make use of ?"
Yang Fei couldn’t think of a better solution at the mont.
Destroying this artifact spirit would indeed be a sha.
If he kept it...
It seed temporarily manageable.
If it truly had the power, it wouldn’t allow itself to be restrained by him.
So, he decided to keep it for now.
With the decision made, Yang Fei didn’t waste words and directly said, "Then let
see your capabilities."
The artifact spirit was overjoyed and said, "No problem, let’s find those Southern Domain cultivators. Without the need for your friends to intervene, just the two of us can kill all those Foundation Establishnt weaklings."
With the Soul Binding Rope in hand and various powerful thods, Yang Fei had no fear of the Foundation Establishnt cultivators, but he also dared not claim that he alone could oppose those sixty-plus Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the Southern Domain.
Now, with this Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace being so arrogant as to say that just teaming up with him would annihilate the remaining dozens of Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the Southern Domain?
Isn’t this boasting too much?
While thinking about it, he heard the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace continue, "With the blood of these sixty-plus Southern Domain Foundation Establishnt cultivators, it’s enough to replenish the life essence blood you and Qin Yanyang lost today and even increase your life essence blood by two to three percent. Of course, I would also gain many benefits from this."
"Oh?" Yang Fei’s eyes lit up with intense interest, "You’re not lying to ?"
"Of course not. If I’m lying, you can use the Soul Binding Rope to completely destroy ."
"Alright, I’ll trust you this once."
The communication between Yang Fei and the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace was actually just a matter of moving a few thoughts, and in reality, only a couple of breathes had passed.
He said to the crowd, "Everyone, rest assured. For now, I can keep it under control. I just communicated with it and reached cooperation; we’ve beco friends."
The crowd looked at each other with odd expressions. Wang Lei couldn’t help but say, "Friends?"
Yang Fei nodded, "Yes, friends. This guy is quite proud and said that even with its first master, it was just a cooperative friendship. And it, being an artifact spirit, is a rather special entity. I can’t think of any way to handle it at the mont. But the Soul Binding Rope has an absolute restraining effect on it, so there’s no need to worry for now."
Qin Yanyang nodded in agreent, "Although this thing is evil, it does indeed have the strength. For us, as long as it can help us fend off the Southern Domain invasion, it can be used."
The others also nodded in agreent.
However, Chris and Will, along with the other Blood Clan elites, showed complex expressions. After exchanging glances, Chris slowly shook his head.
For the Blood Clan, this Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace was absolutely terrifying, having an overwhelmingly suppressive effect.
Yet they couldn’t reveal this fact.
Moreover, they believed that as long as it was in Yang Fei’s hands, it wouldn’t be used against them.
"Let’s see if the Spirit Ship is still operable," Yang Fei suggested.
The group nodded and flew towards the Spirit Ship, which was hovering in the void.
Though the cabin on the Spirit Ship was severely damaged, the structure remained intact, and the propulsion system was still functional.
Yang Fei tested it and found that it could still fly, so he said with a smile, "Lucky, it still works. But staying on the Spirit Ship is now similar to flying with Sword Control, so let’s enjoy the breeze."
Helian Zhan said, "Let’s continue our journey then; we are not that fragile."
Imdiately, the Spirit Ship headed east.
Yang Fei handed over the Spirit Ship to Wang Chunyang for piloting and then, with a thought, entered the Soul Suppressing Space within the Soul Binding Rope.
Wang Huanying was waiting for Yang Fei and was overjoyed to see him return.
However, before he could speak, he was overwheld by a terrifying force, causing his Primordial Spirit to suffer intensely, as if it would dissipate at any mont.
He was panic-stricken and cried, "Please... don’t kill . I have a way to help you recover your lost life essence blood."
Yang Fei coldly replied, "So you did know all along that once the life essence blood was sacrificed, it would be controlled by the artifact spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace."
Wang Huanying was shocked, "What, artifact... artifact spirit? Isn’t it the remnant soul of Taoist Wuji?"
He had dedicated over thirty years to nurturing that Bronze Furnace and only recently sensed a powerful divine soul sealed inside the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace. Yet, he hadn’t realized it was the artifact spirit that had awakened.
He always assud it was a remnant soul of Taoist Wuji’s Primordial Spirit.
That remnant soul was entirely integrated with the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace, requiring it to devour the life essence blood of cultivators to sustain the remnant soul’s existence.
He never imagined that it wasn’t the remnant soul of Taoist Wuji but rather the awakened artifact spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace.
Crucially, Wang Huanying’s life essence blood was too ordinary. Feeding the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace for years never fully awakened the artifact spirit. But the life essence blood of Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang was special, and consuming enough during their ti under the Furnace’s control fully awakened it.
Recognizing Wang Huanying’s shock, Yang Fei had no desire for further dialogue. With a thought, he struck Wang Huanying’s Primordial Spirit consciousness into a chaotic state, erasing his mory.
This person clearly knew the strange nature of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace but concealed it, nearly causing the deaths of Yang Fei and their companions. Such a person had to die.
Moreover, Yang Fei intended to refine him into a Spiritual Puppet, using him for a lifeti.
The Spirit Ship continued its eastward flight. Half a day later, night fell, and the moon illuminated the land.
Suddenly, faint roars reached everyone’s ears.
Having spent several years in contact with the demon beasts of the Penglai Immortal Mountain, everyone recognized the sound as the roaring of demon beasts.
Their spirits were lifted.
With demon beasts appearing, the Southern Domain forces driving these demon beast legions must surely be nearby.
