Chapter 1335: Dragon Soul Saber
Many cultivators stopped in their tracks the moment they entered the hall.
If they took another step forward, they would have to endure the sharp saber qi of the Dragon Soul Saber!
The Dragon Soul Saber was extremely domineering. Although it was locked here, any living being that entered its domain would be attacked wildly by it!
Cultivation did not matter, even Conjoint Body Mighty Figures and Half-Martial Ancestors were no exceptions!
“Long Mo, go on,”
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island nodded slightly, indicating for Su Zimo to head up.
Su Zimo nodded and began advancing towards the Dragon Soul Saber.
Jing Ming surveyed his surroundings and asked, “Everyone, guess how far can Long Mo go?”
“I reckon that he won’t be able to endure it by the time he’s 50 feet away from the Dragon Soul Saber!”
“Yes, 50 feet is the limit. Any more than that and Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords will die!”
“However, Long Mo has the Divine Phoenix Bone so I reckon he can make it to 30 feet. It’ll be impossible for him to get closer than that!”
“That’s right. Back when Senior Brother Heavenly Phoenix was at the Dharma Characteristic realm, he could only reach within 30 feet as well.”
The cultivators discussed softly.
Su Zimo had already entered the attack range of the Dragon Soul Saber!
However, even when the saber qi struck the Dragon True Body, it could not stop him in his tracks.
Su Zimo’s back was facing the crowd and the smile in his eyes intensified.
If it was any other connate utmost treasure that Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix who possessed the Divine Phoenix Bone could not subdue, there was a high chance that Su Zimo would not be able to either.
However, it was different for the Dragon Soul Saber!
The blade of the Dragon Soul Saber used the bones and soul of an Ancestral Dragon as the foundation!
In the Dragon Bone Valley, when Su Zimo underwent the baptism and awakened his innate divine powers, the Ancestral Dragon had already submitted when it sensed the taboo bloodline in him!
In fact, even the innate divine power, the Ancestral Dragon Divine Pillar, was imparted to Su Zimo.
Could the Ancestral Dragon in this Dragon Soul Saber defend against the aura of a taboo?
50 feet.
In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo was within 50 feet.
However, he showed no signs of stopping.
To be precise, his footsteps had been exactly the same the entire time. It was as if they had been accurately measured. Even his speed was the same, as if he was taking a leisure stroll.
The sharp and violent saber qi in the eyes of outsiders did not have any lethality when they struck the Dragon True Body. They turned into streams of Ancestral Dragon qi and surged into Su Zimo’s body!
40 feet.
30 feet!
In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo was only 30 feet away from the Dragon Soul Saber!
Jing Ming and Jing Sheng’s expressions changed slightly.
The discussions in the crowd gradually died down as well as they fixed their gazes on the figure walking towards the Dragon Soul Saber.
Only Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix had a relaxed smile.
He knew that it was impossible for Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords to wield the Dragon Soul Saber!
20 feet!
Ten feet!
Five feet!
Su Zimo was within reach of the Dragon Soul Saber!
“This…”
Mo Ying’s eyes shone brightly with anticipation.
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island narrowed his eyes as well, as though he was waiting for something.
A smile was still on the face of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.
However, his smile seemed to have turned a little stiff.
Su Zimo looked at the Dragon Soul Saber not far away and extended his right hand slowly, grabbing the handle of the saber!
The moment Su Zimo gripped the handle of the Dragon Soul Saber, a loud and authoritative dragon roar sounded from the saber!
Immediately after, a powerful qi of the Ancestral Dragon surged into Su Zimo’s flesh through the handle.
Pang! Pang! Pang!
The chains on the four walls snapped and countless gravel rolled down, engulfing Su Zimo’s figure in a terrifying manner!
A powerful and terrifying saber qi condensed into a saber that surged into the skies like an Ancestral Dragon.
Boom!
The entire secret chamber was sliced into two by that saber instantly!
The crowd was shocked!
“Everyone, retreat! Long Mo was slashed by the Dragon Soul Saber and is already dead!”
Jing Ming exclaimed.
The cultivators retreated.
The only ones remaining on the spot were the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and Mo Ying!
Their cultivation realms were high and the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island was even a Half-Martial Ancestor expert—they could see everything clearly!
All three of their gazes were fixed on the secret chamber before them.
The cultivators seemed to have realized something as well and stopped in their tracks, looking over with widened eyes.
The dust dispersed.
A figure gradually appeared before everyone.
“Mmm? Long Mo isn’t dead?”
Jing Ming was confused.
The situation seemed as though the entire world was about to be destroyed. Yet, Long Mo was still alive even though he was at the eye of the storm?
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix narrowed his eyes.
His gaze landed on Su Zimo’s right hand.
There was a long saber in his hands.
The snow-white blade and dragon bone of the saber could be seen clearly.
Dragon Soul Saber!
Long Mo had succeeded!
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island let out a long sigh, as though a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
Mo Ying was relieved as well and looked delighted.
“Impossible!”
Jing Ming shrieked and pointed at the Dragon Soul Saber in Su Zimo’s hands, saying incoherently, “T-This Dragon Soul Saber! It’s impossible! You’re at the Dharma Characteristic realm! It’s impossible!”
The cultivators widened their eyes in shock as well.
It had been tens of thousands of years since the previous wielder of the Dragon Soul Saber.
To think that someone would finally regain control of the Dragon Soul Saber in this generation!
However, this person was not Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix who was in the hearts of everyone, but an outsider!
A momentary gloominess flashed through the eyes of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.
This scene had truly exceeded his expectations.
In fact, he felt as though he had lifted a stone and smashed it on his own feet.
Su Zimo turned around and smiled with the Dragon Soul Saber in his hands. “It’s all thanks to Senior Heavenly Phoenix’s kind invitation today that I’m lucky enough to wield this Dragon Soul Saber.”
The corners of Heavenly Phoenix’s mouth twitched as he forced a smile as well.
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island raised his head slightly and declared, “Since the Dragon Soul Saber now has a master, I can announce something! Long Mo shall become Divine Phoenix Island’s…”
“Island Master!”
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island was interrupted before he could finish.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix said in a deep voice, “Actually, I’m here because I want to try and see if I can subdue the Dragon Soul Saber as well. I hope that you’ll give me a chance, Island Master.”
“That’s right!”
Jing Ming shouted immediately, “Senior Brother Heavenly Phoenix hasn’t tried it yet. If he can subdue the Dragon Soul Saber as well, it should belong to him.”
“Yes,”
Many cultivators nodded in agreement.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix had resided in Divine Phoenix Island and had a stable foundation and high prestige—he was naturally not someone an outsider like Su Zimo could compare to.
“That’s against the rules,”
Mo Ying said resolutely, “Whoever wields the Dragon Soul Saber will be the young master of Divine Phoenix Island. No one else will be qualified.”
When he heard that, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.
To think that there was such a meaning to wielding the Dragon Soul Saber!
The wielder of the Dragon Soul Saber would be the young master of Divine Phoenix Island!
It was no wonder why the cultivators of Divine Phoenix Island had such a huge reaction.
Most people would be indignant if an outsider like him were to become the young master of Divine Phoenix Island right after arriving.
“This…”
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island looked at Su Zimo with a conflicted expression.
Su Zimo smiled and walked towards Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix. He handed the Dragon Soul Saber over in reverse. “It’s alright. Of course, you can try, Senior Heavenly Phoenix.”
“That’s good as well,”
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island nodded. “That will be more fair. If both of you are able to subdue the Dragon Soul Saber, we’ll find another way to determine the winner.”
