Chapter 164: Chapter 165: Sword Snatching? (1st Update) (Please Favorite, Tip, and Recommend)

"The Fire Dragon, bursting forth with scorching flames, incinerated everything in its path, roaring as it came.

These fire dragons, unleashed by over ten disciples of the Candle Flame Sect, were significantly more potent than Yan Xuan’s own attacks.

The disciples of the Candle Flame Sect all cultivated the same technique from their sect, and their collaboration was seamless.

’A bunch of trash, even when united, you are still trash! Break for me!’

Within Chu Fengmian’s body, the power of the Battle Dragon Technique fully emerged and erupted. In this Holy Land, Chu Fengmian no longer needed to hide his true strength and let loose with all his might.

The edge of the Red Flame Sword surged forward, striking the fire dragon with full force—one slash to break through.

Unmatched with the heavy sword! The enormous Red Flame Sword contained an overwhelming amount of power.

’Boom!’

The massive shock of Spiritual Power swept across everything, the fire dragon shattered under the single strike of that sword.

More than ten disciples of the Candle Flame Sect were forced back several steps, each coughing up a mouthful of blood.

’Such terrifying power!’

’Can it be that over ten disciples of the Candle Flame Sect at the Divine Sea level, when combined, are no match for Chu Fengmian?’

Countless disciples of the Candle Flame Sect shouted in disbelief.

One against over ten, even a powerful expert at the Sovereign Wind level couldn’t do that, let alone Chu Fengmian with the Red Flame Sword. Surely it couldn’t be possible to wield such fearsome power.

’Red Flame Sword!’

Suddenly, countless eyes noticed the Red Flame Sword. The sword before them was entirely different from what the Red Flame Sword once was.

The patterns on the Red Flame Sword had been completely reforged. The nine newly engraved lines were all designed to enhance its strength.

’Insane! Who is the madman that reforged all the patterns on the Red Flame Sword, all to increase its power? Can a human even wield such a thing?’

’With this kid’s strength, wielding the Red Flame Sword to strike even once is his limit. Don’t be afraid, he must be almost out of Spiritual Power by now!’

Some disciples of the Candle Flame Sect yelled loudly.

Such a powerful sword required an astronomical amount of Spiritual Power to wield. Even with Chu Fengmian’s strength, he could only manage to wield the Red Flame Sword for a single strike given his mere seventh level Body Tempering Realm.

They had survived his strongest strike, and so they thought that Chu Fengmian must be near the end of his strength, at the end of his rope.

’Out of Spiritual Power?’

Hearing the disciples of the Candle Flame Sect, a mocking smile appeared in Chu Fengmian’s eyes.

For any other martial artist, the disciples’ words would have been correct. Even a martial artist at the Divine Sea level would find it exceptionally challenging to summon the strength for even one strike with the current Red Flame Sword, as it would deplete all their Spiritual Power.

But this was true for other martial artists, not Chu Fengmian. With the Divine Veins within him, even if a strike drained all his Spiritual Power, he could replenish it in an instant.

By now, Chu Fengmian had already fully replenished the Spiritual Power he had just expended.

He connected with the earth vein, ceaselessly drawing Spiritual Power from it. One could say the earth vein of the Nine Domains belonged to Chu Fengmian, his power almost endless. The Spiritual Power of countless billions of saints could not compete with him.

’Die, all of you!’

Chu Fengmian laughed heartily as the Red Flame Sword was activated once more, unleashing another devastating slash.

The force behind this strike was far more potent than the last, with a sword qi as tall as a person slashing forward.

Instantly, two more disciples of the Candle Flame Sect perished under Chu Fengmian’s Sword Qi.

"It’s impossible! How can his Spiritual Power be so profound!"

"Is he even human? Could it be that this kid is actually a master of the Imperial Wind Realm, having hidden his true strength?"

Currently, even Martial Artists of the Divine Sea Realm can’t unleash the second strike of the Red Flame Sword, unless they are freaks of nature like Yan Xuan of the Divine Sea Realm.

Even if the current Yan Xuan were to try, he wouldn’t be able to deliver the second strike as effortlessly as Chu Fengmian does now, who appears utterly at ease.

To consecutively execute two strikes, for Chu Fengmian, seemed extremely effortless.

"You’re all going to die!"

After slaying two disciples of the Candle Flame Sect, Chu Fengmian’s figure did not stop moving.

His form flickered, appearing beside those Candle Flame Sect disciples, and every slash wielded would claim the lives of several disciples.

In a few breaths’ time, more than ten Candle Flame Sect disciples had already fallen to Chu Fengmian’s Sword Edge.

With a swift movement, Chu Fengmian soared into the sky, separating Yan Xuan and Han Yueli in their entanglement with a single sword strike. He looked at Yan Xuan and revealed a cold smile.

"How about it? Is there anyone else who wishes to claim Chu Fengmian’s head for Contribution Points?"

"Those wastes, dead or alive, are a mere squander of resources."

Yan Xuan looked at the Candle Flame Sect disciples slain by Chu Fengmian, his gaze icy cold.

Yan Xuan never cared about the lives or deaths of these Candle Flame Sect disciples; his eyes were now completely fixated on the Red Flame Sword in Chu Fengmian’s hands.

"No wonder the Crown Prince loathes you to the bone and fears you so deeply; your strength is indeed much more terrifying than one could imagine."

Yan Xuan said, looking at Chu Fengmian.

"But now, your reliance is on this Red Flame Sword, isn’t it?"

"Without this Red Flame Sword, you’re nothing, not even worthy to contend with this young master."

"Oh?"

Chu Fengmian replied with a hint of mockery in his eyes as he looked at Yan Xuan.

"This Red Flame Sword is now in Chu’s hands. I’d like to see how you plan to snatch it."

"Naive boy! This Red Flame Sword is one of the Candle Flame Sect’s three Divine Weapons, which has been controlled by our sect’s Secret Technique. Do you really think you can control it?"

Yan Xuan’s eyes gleamed with greed.

"Since you’ve brought it to the Holy Land, let’s return it to its rightful owner!"

"Seven-colored Fire Pattern!"

The Seven-colored Fire Pattern on Yan Xuan’s brow suddenly dissipated.

On his body, a Seven-colored Flame erupted, appearing so intense that the surrounding space seemed to warp as if it were about to melt.

This flame actually seemed to resonate faintly with the Spiritual Power of the Red Flame Sword.

"Red Flame Sword! As one of the three Divine Weapons of the Candle Flame Sect, you should not be in the hands of an outsider. Come back!"

Yan Xuan bellowed, and immediately the blade of the Red Flame Sword began to tremble, as if eager to escape from Chu Fengmian’s grasp at any moment.

"Be careful, quickly reclaim the Red Flame Sword. The Sword is imprinted with the Candle Flame Sect’s Secret Techniques, and unless a disciple of the Sect controls it, other Martial Artists who obtain it will have their control stripped away!"

Han Yueli urgently warned from the side.

Indeed, a Spiritual Artifact like the Red Flame Sword, at the time of its inscription, was imbued with Secret Techniques to prevent it from being seized by other Martial Artists.
