.Sweat was dripping down on Luo Dan's forehead, crystal clear, like dewdrops in the morning light, but it could not hide the panic and helplessness in his heart. He secretly murmured in his heart, why didn't the old man tell him in advance? If he had known the stakes earlier, he would not have used that precious inheritance power rashly. After all, that was his trump card, and he originally planned to reveal it at the critical moment.
At this point, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Luo Dan could only bite the bullet, grit his teeth, and prepare to face the coming storm. He knew that once he took this step, there would be no turning back.
The shadow on the opposite side had a stern face and dagger-like eyes, staring at Luodan closely, as if trying to see through him. He said in a cold voice: "The aura emanating from your body makes me sick all the time, as if it contains endless filth and evil. And the sword in your hand, I was mercilessly chopped by this sword. Kill, the pain and humiliation, I still remember it in my heart. Today, I will take your life to avenge the shame!"
Faced with the threat of the shadow, Luo Dan did not show any panic. with fear. He took a deep breath to calm down the turmoil in his heart, then sighed and said slowly: "You'd better not speak big words too early, or you may end up with a tragic end. You know, things are unpredictable, and victory or defeat is often just a matter of a thought. You If you really think you have a chance to win, then just give it a try."
There was an unquestionable firmness and confidence in Luo Dan's words, as if he was fully prepared, no matter what. Regardless of the outcome, we will go all out and fight to the death.
He secretly made up his mind and vowed to raise his cultivation level to an unprecedented level, a level that transcended convention and was almost like a god. Only in this way can he have enough power to touch the mysterious soul hidden deep in the sword - the sword spirit, so that he can wake up from his slumber in advance. He knew how powerful the sword spirit was. Once he could awaken it, his chances of winning would undoubtedly be greatly increased when facing the evil cultivator in front of him, and he might even be able to decide the outcome in a single battle.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the next second, the shadow swooped towards Lordan like a ghost, carrying a heaven-destroying momentum. However, Rodan's reaction speed was extremely fast. He sensed the danger almost immediately. Not to be outdone, he waved his palm to attack, and struck out with one palm, directly smashing the phantom into pieces and turning it into nothingness.
In the midst of this electric light and flint, Luo Dan thought, and the sword spirit that had been sleeping for a long time was finally awakened by him and slowly appeared in front of everyone. I saw a golden light flash suddenly, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it. Everyone's faces showed expressions of disbelief. They had never seen such a shocking scene.
Even the phantom's body trembled involuntarily, as if feeling the powerful pressure from the sword spirit. The fierce attack originally emitted by the phantom dissipated as quickly as ice and snow melted at the moment the sword spirit appeared, until it was completely invisible. This scene made everyone present feel unprecedented shock and awe.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could such a thing happen?" Xuying's eyes widened, looking at the sword spirit that appeared out of thin air in disbelief, and anger filled his chest. It rose, as if it would burn his entire being. He burst into a deafening roar, his voice full of unwillingness and anger. He never expected that Rodan had reached the point where he could control the sword spirit.
Luo Dan was slightly stunned. He looked at the shadow with some surprise and muttered to himself: It's just a sword spirit, so there's no need to react so big, right? Although he knew that the sword spirit was powerful, he never expected that Xuying would be so out of control.
However, at the moment when Luo Dan was stunned, he heard the angry questioning voice of the shadow: "As a sword spirit from ancient times, you should have been suppressed in the endless abyss. Why? Can you escape the sanctions of the laws of heaven and earth without any trouble?"
Hearing this, Luo Dan was completely dumbfounded. He stared blankly at the shadow, feeling an indescribable horror in his heart. Could it be that he overheard some shocking secret?
In fact, he didn't really want to know these secrets. As the saying goes, "the more you know, the greater the threat you will be." Luo Dan knew this truth very well, but at this moment, he seemed to be involved in a huge whirlpool, unable to extricate himself. He could only listen to the roar of the shadow silently, praying secretly in his heart, hoping that all this would end as soon as possible.
Lodan was not interested in the hustle and bustle around him. He was completely immersed in the newly acquired sword called "Eternal Life". At this moment, a golden figure slowly appeared beside him. It was naturally the sword spirit that had been contained in Rodan's sword for a long time. The existence of this sword spirit seems to add a bit of mystery and extraordinaryness to this sword.
"Eternal life" is the most simple word. These two simple words contain the true meaning and essence of this sword. It is not only a sharp weapon, but also a loyal partner and guardian on Rodan's path of cultivation. Compared with before, the appearance of the sword spirit this time seemed to be more powerful and majestic than ever before. Its aura showed vague signs of recovery, as if it was gradually waking up from a deep sleep.
As the sword spirit emerged, the aura on its body also became majestic and vast at this moment, as if it could swallow up the world and accommodate all things. The golden light flickered, as dazzling as the sun, making it impossible to look directly at it. And when the sword spirit's eyes fell on the rolling mass of black energy not far away, a trace of sharpness and determination flashed in its eyes, as if it was ready to fight evil to the end.
Luo Dan felt the power and determination of the sword spirit around him, and an inexplicable confidence and courage surged in his heart. He knew that with the company of this "eternal life" sword and the sword spirit, no matter what challenges and difficulties awaited them ahead, they would move forward without fear.
————————
The sword spirit seemed to be extremely irritated at that moment, and a piercing cold light burst out from its eyes, like the coldest light in winter. The cold wind makes people shiver. Immediately afterwards, the sword spirit turned into a fierce and unparalleled aura, and rushed towards the black shadow - the virtual shadow like a wild horse. The speed was so fast that it almost exceeded the human eye's ability to capture it, leaving only a golden afterimage flickering in the air.
In a moment, the golden aura penetrated the shadow's eyebrows, like an invisible sword, hitting its vital point accurately. The shadow's body seemed to be frozen at this moment, and then it fell apart like broken glass and dissipated in the air. This scene shocked everyone else present, their eyes widened with disbelief on their faces.
"Is that... the power bursting out from the sword in Rodan's hand?" Someone murmured to himself, his voice full of shock and confusion. They could not imagine that a seemingly ordinary sword could burst out with such terrifying power and easily kill an evil cultivator from ancient times. Logically speaking, this should not happen at all!
Lodan was also stunned. He looked at the sword in his hand, and an indescribable complex emotion surged in his heart. He knew that this sword was not simple, but the power it displayed far exceeded his expectations. At this moment, he seemed to feel the infinite mystery and power contained in the sword, and he became more determined on the path he wanted to take.
They looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion and confusion, as if everyone was looking for a reasonable explanation, thinking that what just happened was just their illusion, a dazzle or a temporary loss of mind. . However, reality ruthlessly shattered their illusions. Qilin stood aside, his brows furrowed, his face full of disbelief. Originally, in his expectation, the evil cultivator should be able to defeat Luo Dan easily. After all, the evil cultivator's strength is unfathomable and he possesses the evil power of ancient times. But what shocked him was that Luo Dan didn't know what method he used to force the evil cultivator back in full view of everyone.
This scene was undoubtedly a huge blow to Qilin. He gritted his teeth, as if to suppress the gasp that was about to come out, and stared at Rodan tightly, trying to find the answer from the other person. His heart was full of doubts and unwillingness. He didn't understand why a seemingly ordinary sect disciple could burst out with such amazing power, subverting all his predictions and imaginations.
"Qilin, didn't you say that all the evil cultivators in ancient times were difficult characters to deal with? Then what is the situation now? How come he can do it so easily with just one move? Did Song Di kill him?" A man looked at Qilin in disbelief, his tone full of surprise and confusion. He rubbed his eyes, as if to confirm whether what happened before him was real.
Qilin also had a look of astonishment. He frowned and explained: "This...I don't know this. Logically speaking, evil cultivators in ancient times should have strong power and profound cultivation. , how could he be defeated by Luo Dan with just one move? "Could it be...that the one you unleashed is a fake evil cultivator?" the man said half-jokingly, half-seriously, but there was something in his eyes. Revealing a hint of doubt.
Qilin quickly shook his head and denied: "How is that possible! This is an ancient evil cultivator that I have gone through so much trouble to find. How can it be fake?"
"Then his strength is too weak." Another man narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully, "Just now I clearly felt that he was plundering my secret technique, but later he didn't like me and gave up. "I thought he was so powerful, but he was killed so easily."
"Yes, this is too unexpected." Others agreed with each other. They looked at each other with surprise and confusion in their eyes.
“It took us a long time to ask us to help, but in the end we couldn’t help at all and just watched the excitement.” A sect disciple said with a wry smile, “It’s really interesting. I didn’t expect this operation. It turned out to be such a result."
"But then again, Rodan's strength is really good. It's impressive." Another disciple sighed, "He was able to defeat the ancient evil cultivator with one move. His strength is simply terrifying."
"Yeah, it seems we have to be more careful in the future. ." Everyone nodded in agreement, and their eyes looked at Luo Dan with awe and admiration. Although this operation was unexpected, it also made them deeply aware of Rodan's strength and potential.
"Tsk, look at that sword in his hand, it's so powerful!" One of the people blurted out, his eyes full of wonder and envy, "It's so strong and contains so much power, it's just like the one in the legend It’s the same as the magical weapon. Who knows what kind of magic weapon that sword is? It looks ordinary, but it’s actually ridiculously powerful.”
The people next to him couldn't help but persuade after hearing this: "Don't think about it, Luo Dan is so powerful, how can the magic weapon that can be used by him be ordinary? I guess, that sword must be a divine sword The magical weapon of the highest level may even be a treasure left over from ancient times.”
They made bold guesses, and their voices started to rise and fall. Qilin, who was standing aside, looked at Luo Dan with a gloomy face, anger and unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
He walked quickly to Luo Dan and asked in a cold tone: "Luo Dan, don't be so proud! Don't think that you can do whatever you want with that sword. I won't let you go. . Just wait for me, I promise to make you regret what you did!"
Hearing this, Luo Dan just smiled lightly and ignored Qilin's threat. He gently stroked the sword in his hand, feeling the majestic power contained in the sword, and his heart was filled with confidence and determination.
"Qilin, don't go too far." Someone beside him couldn't stand it anymore and warned, "Luo Dan has shown his strength. You should respect him and not make trouble here."
Qilin didn't seem to hear it, and still stared at Luo Dan, as if he wanted to penetrate him. Rodan, on the other hand, always maintained a calm attitude, as if everything was under his control.
The scene fell into a stalemate for a while, and the surrounding atmosphere became tense. However, Rodan didn't seem to care about this. He gently waved the sword in his hand, and the sword light flashed, as if even the air was being cut.
"Qilin, I have no intention of being an enemy of you." Luo Dan said lightly, "But if you insist on making trouble, I will not show mercy. This sword is not for decoration. "
Lodan was still immersed in the thrilling battle just now. Before his thoughts could come back to his senses, he suddenly noticed that the surrounding atmosphere had become a little subtle. He looked around and found that many people had a bit of hostility and dissatisfaction in their eyes, as if he had done something unforgivable. Luo Dan looked confused and muttered to himself: What does this have to do with him? He had no idea what he had done wrong and why he was suddenly hated by so many people. (End of chapter)
