Chapter 220: Chapter 220: The Terrifying Dream, the Five Elements Spirit Sword is Formed
Ye Feng’s eyes widened as he watched the Refining Furnace.
After observing for a while, he noticed that the refining process was stable, with no mishaps, but since he had hurried on his journey today and had been up all night inscribing a Miniature Cave-Heaven Array, it had been mentally and physically exhausting, and his eyelids were getting heavier.
“Forget it, I’ll take a nap first.”
With that, Ye Feng closed his eyes, beginning to rest.
He covered a hundred-meter radius with his Heroic Spirit Power and also had the Wind Spirit Pearl as an early warning system; should any danger arise, he would naturally wake up immediately.
Besides, even if there was danger, Brother Flathead in the next room would likely be the first to rush out and fight.
…
In his dream.
Suddenly, Ye Feng opened his eyes and found himself dressed in special ancient clothing. The fabric in front of him and behind him each bore one character: “Demon” and “King.”
Looking around, he realized that he was standing on the peak of Wan Ren Peak.
Mo Minxi, dressed in flowing sand gowns, kneeled before him, her fallen veil revealing a stunningly beautiful face that inspired pity.
However, a trail of blood hung from the corner of her mouth.
“Young Alliance Leader, what’s wrong with you?”
Ye Feng, not aware that he was in a dream and mistaking it for reality, quickly reached out, trying to help Mo Minxi up from the ground.
“Don’t!”
Mo Minxi’s face filled with horror as she hurriedly backed away while kneeling, her beautiful visage filled with shock, as if she were terrified of him.
“Why are you afraid of me?” Ye Feng scratched his head only to find something odd about his hair. He quickly pulled out a strand, and to his shock, his hair had turned into a bright red, like a tuft of burning flame.
Red hair?
Is that me?
Ye Feng’s breath caught, and he quickly took out a mirror, only to see his reflection.
It was a transformed dragon clan strongman with two horns on his head!
His fiery red hair danced wildly in the wind, his hands were thick and strong, his face rugged, and it was not at all like his usual self. His left corner of the mouth curled, revealing a wicked smile.
“How dare you, Demon Dragon King, let go of our Young Alliance Leader!”
A scolding voice came.
Following the voice, Ye Feng saw the Blue Dragon King leading four Spirit Sea Realm Supreme Elders charging towards him. Their powerful auras overlapped to form a gigantic palm that, with enormous force, pressed down mercilessly.
“I am not the Demon Dragon King, I am Ye Feng!”
Ye Feng tried to speak but found his voice muffled, unable to reach out, and his body acted on its own. His hands automatically formed hand seals, and then he pointed towards the sky.
Roar!
A crimson-golden demon dragon burst forth, its tail lashing out and easily shattering the gigantic palm, before striking the chests of the Blue Dragon King and the other four Spirit Sea Realm experts, causing them to spit blood and fly backwards.
“How… how am I so strong?”
Ye Feng stood in stunned silence.
The next moment, however, he found “himself” flying up to the sky, continuing to wield overwhelming power, easily exploding the Blue Dragon King and the other five Spirit Sea Realm experts as if a demon god had descended!
“Why has my body flown out?”
“No, that’s not my body, it’s someone else’s. My consciousness is still in the original place, and has no connection to the ‘Demon Dragon King.’”
“And this is probably just a dream!”
Ye Feng took out another mirror and saw himself standing in place, ethereal, not belonging to this world.
“No!”
Mo Minxi watched in horror as the five Spirit Sea Realm experts were blown apart, screaming heartrendingly.
The next moment, the Demon Dragon King continued to strike, killing Mo Minxi with a slap.
After that, Ye Feng found the scene in front of him collapsing completely, and he was freed from this bizarre world as he opened his eyes in the real world.
“Ah!”
Ye Feng cried out, touching his forehead to find his body drenched in cold sweat as if he had just gone through a severe illness.
Just then, the clangs and clinks of the Refining Furnace reached his ears.
“So it turns out, everything just now was all a nightmare!”
Ye Feng panted heavily, feeling that the dream was entirely too painful; the Demon Dragon King was terrifyingly powerful, and not even five great Spirit Sea Realm experts were his match.
Mo Minxi, who possessed at least a seventh level Element Gathering Realm cultivation, couldn’t even withstand one slap from the Demon Dragon King and was killed.
So, just how strong was the Demon Dragon King in the dream?
Was he mid-tier or high-tier in the Spirit Sea Realm?
Regardless, Ye Feng was definitely no match for him.
“I hope it was all just a dream!”
Ye Feng took a deep breath, wiped off the cold sweat on his body, drank a large glass of water, and noticed that it was still two hours before dawn. He quickly took a shower and pulled out his portable reclining chair, falling deeply asleep.
The next morning dawned.
Clang!
The lid of the Refining Furnace opened.
As the five-colored glow blossomed, a three-foot-long five-colored longsword slowly floated up. Its surface was covered with countless glowing lines that gradually vanished over time, leaving only a mirror-like treasured sword.
“Ding, the Five Elements Spirit Sword has been refined!”
System notification.
Hearing this, Ye Feng packed away the Refining Furnace and grabbed the hilt of the Five Elements Spirit Sword. With a light swing, a fearsome gust of wind swept out, but fortunately, Ye Feng’s quick reflexes allowed him to counter it with another gust, annihilating it.
“What a powerful sword!”
Ye Feng was very pleased.
With the help of the system, Ye Feng fully refined the Five Elements Spirit Sword, making it a “non-transferrable” item, and also received a few lines of text notification.
[Five Elements Spirit Sword: Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact (Non-transferrable)]
[Functions: Five Elements Sword Net, Five Elements Sword Qi, Capture Five Elements Vortex]
[Remark: Forged with special five elements material, it contains complex formations within. Power amplification, spiritual energy convergence, speed enhancement, among other formations, are all included. The craftsmanship is superb, making it a top-notch item among upper grade spiritual artifacts.]
This was the introduction to the Five Elements Spirit Sword.
Seeing this, Ye Feng was somewhat puzzled.
The Five Elements Sword Net and Five Elements Sword Qi were easy to understand, but what was the Capture Five Elements Vortex, and how powerful was it?
However, no one answered Ye Feng.
Even the system maintained its silence.
Having no other choice, Ye Feng could only put away the Five Elements Spirit Sword for the time being, planning to test the sword’s power when he had free time.
Knock, knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door.
Ye Feng opened the door to see a young woman dressed in palace attire standing outside. She bowed to him and said softly, “Master Ye, the Young Alliance Leader requests your presence. Please follow me.”
“Thank you for guiding the way,” Ye Feng followed behind the woman.
Atop Wan Ren Peak.
Ye Feng saw a storage ring placed before him.
Mo Minxi, the Blue Dragon King, and the other four Spirit Sea Realm Supreme Elders were all present, their attitudes noticeably better than the day before.
“Master Ye, we have gathered all the materials and put them in this storage ring. Next, please hurry and inscribe the remaining thirty-five Miniature Cave-Heaven Arrays,” Mo Minxi said, her voice still cool.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng picked up the storage ring.
“Shall we start with Wan Ren Peak?” Ye Feng took out a set of materials, refined them on the spot, and then asked the Blue Dragon King.
“That’s fine,” the Blue Dragon King had no objections.
…
Inside the thirty-six peaks on the main island, each had an internal space containing a Miniature Spirit Vein, varying in form: some were stalagmites, some were giant pebbles, and some were simply rock walls, all different.
Even the inner cavern of Wan Ren Peak, the main peak, contained a Miniature Spirit Vein.
As for the Minor Spirit Vein core that Ye Feng was most curious about, he did not get to see it from beginning to end.
Under the “supervision” of Mo Minxi and the other five, Ye Feng continuously inscribed the formations.
He performed very steadily.
Every hour, Ye Feng could complete one array, rest for an hour, and then continue working.
On days when he was in good condition, Ye Feng simply didn’t rest.
The first day passed, and including the array from the previous night, he had completed fifteen.
On the second day, Ye Feng finished the twenty-seventh one.
The afternoon of the third day.
As Ye Feng placed the last ten middle-grade Spirit Stones into the grooves, the final Miniature Cave-Heaven Array was completed. He let out a breath and sat in a lounge chair, panting heavily.
“That was exhausting!”
Ye Feng quickly drank some Spirit Spring Water to recover from the exertion.
“In less than three days, he created thirty-six Miniature Cave Heaven Worlds. His mastery of array formation is so profound that he can be called a grandmaster!” Mo Minxi watched Ye Feng’s figure from behind, secretly astonished.
The Blue Dragon King and the other four Supreme Elders all showed pleased expressions, as if they had been relieved of a heavy burden.
“Now that the thirty-six Cave Heaven Worlds have been created, it’s time to arrange this formation,” the Blue Dragon King spoke words that Ye Feng couldn’t understand.
The next moment, the Blue Dragon King took out a purple Array Plate, flicked her finger, and threw out thirty-six one-inch-tall colored Formation Flags. They turned into countless streaks of light, entered the Cave Heaven Worlds within all the peaks, and accurately landed on the Spiritual Vein Cores.
“What kind of formation is this?”
Ye Feng frowned, feeling a strange sensation.
