Chapter 226: Chapter 226: The Power of the Five Elements Spirit Sword, The Commandery Princess’s Invitation
However, the Fanged Mad Pig was not afraid.
In terms of defense, it was even stronger than the Twin-winged Evil Dragon!
“Hahaha…”
The Fanged Mad Pig suddenly laughed loudly, “Die well! Once I devour all the power of the Twin-winged Evil Dragon and complete my second transformation, I will surely wipe out all you ants and gobble you up in one bite!”
Hearing this, everyone’s expression changed once again.
Ye Feng looked at the Wind Spirit Pearl, now empty inside, and his expression darkened slightly.
He had used a strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy while on the move.
When he tested the Twin-winged Evil Dragon’s defense and used the second strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy, he managed to sever one of its sharp claws.
The last strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy was used in a sneak attack, cutting off the Twin-winged Evil Dragon’s head, successfully killing it.
Now, without the Wind Element Spirit Energy, the Wind Spirit Pearl wasn’t much use.
“Sect Leader, what should we do?”
The disciples noticed that Ye Feng had put away the Wind Spirit Pearl and knew that this powerful method could not be used for the time being. They all widened their eyes, filled with despair.
“Master Ye, flee!” The Blue Bird Elder flapped its wings and just as it rose into the air, it saw the Fanged Mad Pig erupt with an even more terrifying pressure, shaking the void violently and causing everyone to lose their footing, let alone fly.
“The Twin-winged Evil Dragon is mine!”
The Fanged Mad Pig, like a meteor falling to the ground, attempted to devour the bloodline and Demon Core of the Twin-winged Evil Dragon in one go and breakthrough its own realm.
Clang!
In a moment of widespread despair, oppression, and loss, a burst of radiant five-colored light blossomed from Ye Feng’s right hand, accompanied by a clear ringing of Sword Qi, dispersing the overwhelming pressure from the Fanged Mad Pig that almost crushed the mountains.
“Dream on if you think you can touch my spoils of war!”
Ye Feng, holding the Five Elements Spirit Sword, had a cold expression.
He did not want to use the Five Elements Spirit Sword so soon, as it was currently his strongest move. Revealing it would make others wary of him.
But under today’s circumstances, he had no choice but to make a move.
“Five Elements Sword Qi!”
Ye Feng gathered his momentum to its peak, and a huge whirlpool momentarily appeared on the surface of the Five Elements Spirit Sword, drawing in nature’s spiritual energy, and condensing an extremely terrifying sword light, which he slashed toward the Fanged Mad Pig through the air.
Rip!
The entire sky seemed to have been split in two.
The Fanged Mad Pig felt like there was a sword at its back and hurriedly dodged.
The next moment, a Sword Qi a kilometer long slashed into the uninhabited region of Fuyun Gloomy Forest, carving out a miniature canyon dozens of meters wide, tens of meters deep, and stretching for miles on the ground.
“Hiss!”
The crowd gasped in astonishment.
Even the Fanged Mad Pig was trembling with fear, thankful it had dodged in time; otherwise, it would have been beheaded by that sword attack, without a doubt!
“Run!”
The Fanged Mad Pig landed on the ground and fled at breakneck speed.
Ye Feng stared at the miniature canyon on the ground and finally understood what “Capture Five Elements Vortex” meant.
This was actually a Spirit Gathering Array built for rapid energy collection!
It could instantly condense spiritual energy from all directions, boosting the Five Elements Spirit Sword’s power to its maximum. As long as the surrounding spiritual energy was abundant, it was possible to unleash peak power an infinite number of times.
“Wild Boar, die for your master!”
Understanding the strength of the Five Elements Spirit Sword, Ye Feng chased with the sword in hand, frightening the Fanged Mad Pig into transforming into its wild boar form. It dug into the ground with its four legs at a frenzied pace, its speed increasing several folds, covering a kilometer in an instant, terrifyingly fast.
Ye Feng pursued with the sword, his own speed not slow either.
In the blink of an eye, both had vanished from the crowd’s sight.
Atop Misty Peak.
The crowd stood in dumbfounded silence as they watched the trail of dust in the distance, realizing that Ye Feng and the Fanged Mad Pig had long disappeared, leaving them speechless.
Especially the Blue Bird Elder, who shook with shock, hugging his thin body with his wings, stuttering, “Is… is that really Master Ye? How… how can his strength be so formidable?”
It was clear that the Five Elements Spirit Sword was an upper-grade spiritual artifact, extremely valuable.
But under normal circumstances, the full power of a high-level spiritual artifact couldn’t be casually exerted. Firstly, it needed to be refined, and the user had to possess a certain level of cultivation.
Yet, Ye Feng seemed to have no cultivation at all, but he could maximize the power of the Five Elements Spirit Sword, which made Blue Bird Elder find it unbelievable.
Everyone else’s mouths were agape.
“When did the sect leader acquire such a formidable spirit weapon?” Mo Ying looked towards the direction Ye Feng and the Fanged Mad Pig had left, her heart greatly shaken.
She thought today was going to be the end.
However, to her surprise, Ye Feng made consecutive moves, first slaying the Dual-winged Giant Crocodile, and then pulling out a surprising spiritual weapon, chasing after the Fanged Mad Pig, a peak Demon General, to chop at it.
The others were even more astonished.
No one could have imagined that Ye Feng was capable of overpowering a peak Demon General!
For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
Even the carcass of the Twin-winged Evil Dragon that lay on the ground — nobody dared to touch it.
Dozens of miles away.
“Die for me!”
Ye Feng wielded the sword with both hands and, in a flash, unleashed a terrifying sword beam, cutting a canyon that stretched for miles on the ground, frightening the Fanged Mad Pig into running even faster.
“Fellow cultivator, spare my life, please!”
While fleeing for its life, the Fanged Mad Pig stuck out its tongue, exhausted like a dog, sweating profusely with its temperature rising higher and higher until, at last, it ran engulfed in flames.
“I have decided on your pork, my good fellow!”
Ye Feng pushed his Heroic Spirit Power to the limit, his entire being like a sword beam slashing across the sky. Luckily he was covered with metal leaf blades, for otherwise, with the fierce wind, even his clothes would have been torn apart.
“Five Elements Sword Net!”
In an instant, Ye Feng unleashed dozens of sword Qi, intertwining into a vast net of sword energy that covered a dozen miles, successfully trapping the Fanged Mad Pig within it.
“Not good!”
The Fanged Mad Pig immediately started to dig through the ground, trying to escape underground.
But in the next moment, the Five Elements Sword Net instantly contracted, ensnaring it tightly; no matter how it struggled, it couldn’t break free.
“Fellow cultivator, I can be your mount!” the Fanged Mad Pig pleaded.
Ye Feng paused his sword-wielding movement slightly and asked in his mind, “System, can the Fanged Mad Pig be taken as a Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast?”
“Ding, it is detected that the Fanged Mad Pig has not submitted, unable to be tamed.” The System broadcasted a prompt sound.
Hearing this, Ye Feng put down the Five Elements Spirit Sword.
The Fanged Mad Pig, seeing this, felt a momentary relief in its heart and prepared to continue begging for mercy, waiting for the moment Ye Feng was slightly inattentive to strike him dead with the assassination bone spear.
Rip!
Suddenly, Ye Feng raised the Five Elements Spirit Sword, unleashing the full power of the Five Elements Whirlpool, instantly devouring a massive amount of nature’s spiritual energy surrounding him and slashing out an extremely terrifying, brilliantly glowing sword qi.
“Why do you want to cut me?”
The Fanged Mad Pig roared in unwillingness.
It had acted so convincingly, tears streaming down, a face full of fear, its tone so sincere, yet why hadn’t it been able to deceive Ye Feng?
Could he really be so heartless?
With endless unwillingness, the Fanged Mad Pig had its head chopped off by the Five Elements Sword Qi, and this peak-strength Demon General ultimately fell to the ground.
“This pig, really magnificent!”
Ye Feng looked at the Fanged Mad Pig towering over ten meters tall, lifted it with Heroic Spirit Power, sat on its head, and slowly flew towards Misty Peak.
In mid-air.
The sharp-eyed Blue Bird Elder saw the Fanged Mad Pig flying back and was so scared that he was about to run away in a panic.
The others didn’t see Ye Feng, only the Fanged Mad Pig, and were greatly alarmed.
“Hey, look, isn’t Sect Master sitting on the pig’s head… and, the Fanged Mad Pig’s head and body seem a little displaced, as if it has been chopped off,” Mo Ying, with her Element Gathering Realm cultivation, used her Spirit Eyes and scrutinized very carefully.
“It seems so!” The disciples immediately flew over.
“Could it be that Sect Master Ye has slain the Fanged Mad Pig?” the others hesitated for a moment, then cautiously flew over.
High in the sky.
The crowd witnessed with their own eyes Ye Feng sitting on the pig’s head, the Fanged Mad Pig beneath him indeed with its head severed, the wound stark and shocking.
“So strong!”
The crowd felt genuine admiration.
A peak-strength Demon General that caused people to lose their courage just at the mention of its name, was just so easily cut down by Ye Feng, and looking at how nonchalant Ye Feng appeared, it was obviously a one-sided affair.
“Could it be that Sect Master Ye has already stepped into the Spirit Sea Realm?” the Deputy City Lord murmured softly, his voice not loud, yet it was like a muffled thunder exploding beside everyone’s ears.
Spirit Sea Realm?
Indeed!
Only with such astonishing strength could Ye Feng have slain two peak-strength Demon Generals in such a short period of time.
But could it be possible that the Sect Leader of the Misty Sect, which wasn’t even a star-level sect, was actually a Spirit Sea Realm expert?
The crowd fell into thought.
“Spirit Sea Realm?”
The Blue Bird Elder shivered, staring at the Five Elements Spirit Sword that Ye Feng casually placed across his knees, and murmured:
“Master Ye must be relying on this spiritual artifact, right?”
“Huh… but that’s not right! He was able to slay the Twin-winged Evil Dragon even without using this sword before, which means his own combat strength is terrifying.”
“Could it be that Master Ye is really a hidden Spirit Sea Realm expert, on par with top-tier existences like the Great Elder and Supreme Elder of our Myriad Islands Alliance?”
The more the Blue Bird Elder thought, the more astounded he became.
Mid-air.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Feng used Heroic Spirit Power to collect the corpse of the Twin-winged Evil Dragon and placed it together with the Fanged Mad Pig on top of Misty Peak.
Then, he turned back to look at the crowd wearing faces of admiration and said, “Everyone, the source of danger has been eradicated by this Sect Leader, you may all disperse now!”
“Ah… yes!”
The cultivators of Whitefloat City promptly paid their respects and spread the story of Ye Feng crushing the two peak-strength Demon Generals far and wide.
In no time, Whitefloat City was once again astir.
In just half an hour, Ye Feng noticed that the Sect Prestige Value had surged by tens of thousands and, considering the accumulation from before, it had already exceeded one hundred and sixty thousand.
“Prestige Points really increased fast!”
In the Sect Leader’s Great Hall, Ye Feng felt secretly pleased.
Afterward, he looked at the Deputy City Lord, Nishang Palace Master, Tyrant Blade Sect Leader, Feathers Sect Sect Leader, and the other four Element Gathering Realm powerhouses sitting on stools.
As for the Blue Bird Elder, he had left hastily half an hour ago.
“What brings you four to seek this Sect Leader?” Ye Feng inquired.
Earlier, he had used the Mini Banana Palm Fan to bring down a heavy rain over Fuyun Gloomy Forest, watering the ruins and cleaning up the battlefield as a side effect.
Only now did he have the time to receive the Deputy City Lord and the others.
“Please take a look at this, Sect Master Ye,” the Deputy City Lord took out an invitation.
Ye Feng looked at the cover, which bore the graceful characters “For Sect Master Ye’s Personal Attention,” an unfamiliar handwriting, but he could guess it was likely from a lady.
With a sense of curiosity, Ye Feng opened the invitation.
“Sect Master Ye, you may or may not have met me, but you must have heard of me. When you see this invitation, your sect must have received Whitefloat City’s endorsement to participate in the Demon Slaying Gathering held in County King City in the first half of next year.”
“When you and your fellow brothers and sisters arrive at County King City, if you have time, please visit ‘County King’s Manor.’ I, the Commandery Princess, will welcome and refresh you.”
“Take care!”
The content ended there.
Ye Feng pondered for a long time and could not determine who the “Commandery Princess” was or why there was such a peculiar term as “fellow brothers and sisters” in the letter.
After much deliberation, a name popped into Ye Feng’s mind.
Shu Hongyu!
Apart from her, who else would use such an address?
Could it be, she was the daughter of the Commandery Prince?
Thinking this, Ye Feng closed the invitation, his expression somewhat complex.
“Have you finished reading, Sect Master Ye?” the Deputy City Lord asked.
Ye Feng nodded slightly and said, “I have finished, but who gave you this invitation?”
The Deputy City Lord explained:
“It was delivered by a friend from County King City this morning, insisting it had to be personally handed to Sect Master Ye… Besides this, we’ve heard that Yunhua Sect has passed the Star-Level Sect certification and will be holding a celebration for the promotion to star status in three days, inviting us to join.”
Ye Feng put away the invitation and said, “Thank you all for coming to notify me. Regarding these two matters, I have taken note.”
Noticing the Deputy City Lord seemed to hesitate, Ye Feng asked, “Is there something else?”
“Of course, there is!”
The Deputy City Lord quickly spoke, his expression becoming very serious, “There’s another matter concerning a major event for Whitefloat City!”
