CHAPTER 396: CHAPTER 396 ACTIVATION OF THE GODSLAYING SWORD

However, this Situ Jing looks quite pretty at the moment.

"Alright, come find me again tomorrow and take me to the Situ Family. I’ll decide then if I want to treat your father or not," said Ye Feng, closing the door without waiting for Situ Jing’s response.

"Ah! You scoundrel." Seeing this scene, Situ Jing went crazy with anger, wishing she could tear Ye Feng apart.

"What did you say?" At that moment, Ye Feng opened the door and asked doubtfully.

"Oh~ I was just saying you’re handsome." Seeing Ye Feng suddenly open the door, Situ Jing immediately changed her expression and praised him with a smile.

"I already know that without you saying. Don’t waste your breath with unnecessary talk in the future," replied Ye Feng, closing the door again.

"Narcissist!" Situ Jing snorted coldly and turned away.

Moreover, after a brief exchange, Situ Jing even felt that Ye Feng had become her heart demon, cursing him incessantly in her sleep at night...

Of course, Ye Feng was unaware of all this.

At this moment, Ye Feng was holding the Godslaying Sword, overjoyed beyond words.

Though the Heaven Concealing Sword was decent, compared to the Godslaying Sword, it was not worth mentioning at all.

The Godslaying Sword was a terrifying entity with a Sword Spirit and could grow even more powerful.

So Ye Feng began to activate the Sword Spirit.

After a drop of blood, slight vibrations emanated from within the Godslaying Sword.

At the same time, an inexplicable force started approaching Ye Feng’s blood.

"Go!" At that moment, Ye Feng released powerful True Qi, interacting with the Godslaying Sword and the Sword Spirit.

Initially, the Sword Spirit resisted frantically.

But with its current strength, it couldn’t possibly be a match for Ye Feng, and it quickly became submissive.

Once it submitted, Ye Feng fed it the previous blood.

At first, the little entity was quite proud, but unable to resist temptation, it eventually absorbed Ye Feng’s blood.

After consuming Ye Feng’s blood, the Sword Spirit fully opened up, allowing Ye Feng to begin refining the Godslaying Sword and taming the Sword Spirit.

This was a long and arduous process, but after some time, Ye Feng finally succeeded in activating the Godslaying Sword, making it recognize him as its master.

"Master!" At that moment, a cute voice echoed in Ye Feng’s mind.

This was the Sword Spirit of the Godslaying Sword communicating with Ye Feng.

"Hello there! I’ll call you Little God from now on!" Ye Feng said with a smile, engaging with it.

The Sword Spirit was quite pleased with Ye Feng’s naming, happily communicating with him.

Now that Ye Feng had the Sword Spirit, he wouldn’t be alone even when by himself—like having a companion.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng also gained a clear understanding of the current state of the Godslaying Sword.

The Godslaying Sword was not particularly strong at the moment, an intermediate-level spiritual artifact of the second grade.

However, due to the presence of the Sword Spirit, its power was much stronger than a typical second-grade intermediate spiritual artifact, ranking as a king among them.

Moreover, to evolve the Godslaying Sword, the conditions were quite straightforward and crude: it needed to slay gods and drink blood.

Of course, this was just an example; it didn’t actually need to slay Divine Level beings to enhance its power.

Otherwise, given the scarcity of Divine Level beings in this world, it would be extremely difficult to enhance it.

In fact, all the current Godslaying Sword needed was to slay creatures that weren’t too weak to enhance its power.

For instance, a Grandmaster Level entity would suffice. Though the effect wouldn’t be great, it wouldn’t be too bad either.

It seemed Ye Feng could try to strike once with the Godslaying Sword, against whoever he might face in the future, to boost its power.

Whether the opponent could withstand the Sword Aura of the Godslaying Sword and survive was not Ye Feng’s concern.

Indeed, with ordinary means, if Ye Feng held back, the opponent might survive.

But if the Godslaying Sword came into play, even a casual strike would be overwhelming due to the presence of the Sword Spirit, which would use the Sword’s power to severely injure the opponent.

This was something Ye Feng couldn’t control.

Ye Feng could unleash the maximum power of the Godslaying Sword but couldn’t control its minimum power.

After swinging the Godslaying Sword a few times, Ye Feng discovered that the sword seemed tailor-made for him, believing it would flourish in his hands.

After activating the Godslaying Sword, Ye Feng put it away and then checked the situation inside the Ancient Jade Gourd.

With more herbs and spirit grass, the Spiritual Qi inside the Ancient Jade Gourd became more abundant. Looking at the rich Spiritual Qi inside, Ye Feng happily absorbed it to enhance his True Qi.

’Looks like it’s time for a breakthrough.’ Feeling the True Qi in him growing stronger and the signs of a breakthrough becoming more apparent, Ye Feng sensed he should make a breakthrough.

Moreover, this trip to the Jia Rong Mountain area might bring unexpected monsters, so it’s best to increase his strength for safety.

Hence, Ye Feng retrieved the cultivation resources he had obtained.

Most of these miscellaneous cultivation resources were of little use to Ye Feng.

Most were suitable for Ye Qian and others, so Ye Feng set them aside for them.

Ye Feng only used the ones effective for himself, beginning to cultivate.

After exhausting the cultivation resources, Ye Feng felt the True Qi within him had reached a certain limit.

The feeling was quite peculiar, making Ye Feng feel incredibly strong, as if on the verge of a breakthrough.

But there was still a tiny bit missing, just a tiny bit more...

So Ye Feng began using pills.

The pills obtained from the Divine Dragon Guard became valuable for Ye Feng’s breakthrough.

"Hah! Break for me." As Ye Feng swallowed the pills, he felt the signs of a breakthrough, urgently attempting to force a breakthrough.

With Ye Feng’s actions, unbearable pain surged through his body, making him furrow his brow.

However, Ye Feng had grown accustomed; this feeling occurred every time, getting stronger each time.

Enduring the pain, Ye Feng tried desperately, swallowing another pill.

As the pill entered, Ye Feng felt a powerful force within.

Thus, Ye Feng used this powerful force to attempt breaking through to the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation.

Which is what they referred to as the Martial Venerable Realm.

If Ye Feng succeeded, he would become a true Venerable.

In that case, Ye Feng would feel invincible among Venerable Level, even against an average Martial Saint, he’d have absolute confidence of victory.

That’s right, previously he thought he could defeat a Martial Saint, but Ye Feng wasn’t entirely sure.

However, entering the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation, Ye Feng could confirm he could easily defeat an average Martial Saint.

Of course, this was limited to ordinary Junior Martial Saints.

If a Senior Martial Saint came, not... Let’s not even talk about a Senior Martial Saint, even an Intermediate Martial Saint would be quite challenging for Ye Feng.

At this critical juncture, Ye Feng was on the verge of breakthrough; success or failure hinged on this moment...
