Chu Ming solemnly said, this piece of Sword Gang was too important to him, it was flowing with a faint Void Realm, which might be his opportunity to comprehend Void Sword Intent.
The two of them checked the stone room but found nothing else of value, so they turned to leave. Before leaving, Chu Ming took a few ancient books from the bookshelf, hoping to find some clues about the owner’s identity.
On the way back, they did not encounter the Black Wind Spirit, which was a relief. Although they were not afraid of the Black Wind Spirit, encountering it would still require some effort.
"If you go to the Profound Ice Domain, you must find me, so I can fulfill my duties as a host."
When parting, Feng Yuyan instructed Chu Ming.
"Perhaps the time until we meet again won’t be too long."
Chu Ming said calmly.
"Indeed, with your strength, you will surely shine at the tea ceremony in a year."
Feng Yuyan mused, then disappeared into the forests of the Blood Bee Mountain Range.
After Feng Yuyan left, Chu Ming did not leave the Blood Bee Mountain Range but instead chose a random cave to refine the Immortal Grass.
An Immortal Grass should help his Immortal Sword Intent break through to Tier Two.
Sitting cross-legged in the cave, Chu Ming’s right hand brushed over, and a golden Spirit Grass appeared in his hand, exuding a faint Immortal Realm.
Holding the Immortal Grass tightly in his right hand, Chu Ming activated the Immortal Sword Intent, and the small Immortal sword in his mind immediately began to tremble violently. Strands of pale golden light emanated from Chu Ming’s right hand, extending deep into his mind.
If looked closely, one would find golden whirlpools forming rapidly on Chu Ming’s arm, appearing in some regular pattern.
The Immortal Sword Intent permeated the surroundings, the Sword Dao Aurora in Chu Ming’s mind shot out, and the sound of swords seemed to lightly ring in his ears, like the grand sound of the Dao, sometimes distant, sometimes near.
The sound of sword strikes resounded, like a small bridge over flowing water, or surging waves.
The small Immortal sword in Chu Ming’s mind was quickly solidifying, a burst of pale golden light shot out from Chu Ming at the center, spreading anciently and eternally, time unchanged.
The sound of glass shattering rang in Chu Ming’s mind, a golden beam shot up into the sky, and Chu Ming’s Immortal Sword Intent finally broke through to Tier Two.
When the light dissipated, the Sword Momentum on Chu Ming’s body appeared even more magnificent, like a peerless sharp sword unsheathed. Pieces of rubble flew from the cave, falling to the ground, raising layers of dust.
Chu Ming’s body darted out swiftly from the cave, just after he left, with a loud boom, the whole cave collapsed, blocking the entrance with rubble.
Chu Ming dusted himself off and was about to leave, however, a gigantic creature was pushing down countless giant trees, moving towards him, dust swirling around, blurring his vision.
When the creature approached within ten meters, he finally saw its full appearance clearly.
Cold and violent eyes, two horns on its head, covered in black scales, on all fours, each step leaving deep prints, a body over a hundred meters long, each scale as big as a human face.
Wherever it passed, trees were all pushed down and crushed into powder, pits and bumps, with strands of flame occasionally shooting from beneath, turning within a hundred meters into a sea of fire.
Seventh Level Top Tier Demon Beast, Iron-Backed Flame Dragon.
Chu Ming stood before the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon like an ant, gripping the Conjugate Sword tightly. Chu Ming did not leave; with his significantly improved combat power, he wanted to test how far his ability had grown, and the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon was a perfect grindstone.
A shadow flew from Chu Ming’s body, the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon squinted, not yet reacting, a Sword Light struck down from its head!
A storm swept, white clouds stirred, Slaughter Sword Intent burst forth!
Immortal Sword Intent burst forth!
This sword, containing much more destructive power than a few days ago, bent space like soft water, pressing to both sides.
The Iron-Backed Flame Dragon’s front paw extended, a red light swept forth, it was a red Flame Bomb, cutting through layers of space, hitting Chu Ming’s sword edge precisely.
The Flame Bomb exploded, sparks flying, turning into a rain of fire, within a kilometer trees became a sea of flames, hidden Demon Beasts scattered in panic, like a Beast Tide.
Chu Ming’s eyes were dark, a gleam flashed from his eyes, at the same time, countless Sword Dao Auroras flew through Chu Ming’s mind, a faint, white and misty Flowing Cloud flashed in Chu Ming’s sword, making the surrounding space sticky like flowing water.
"Flowing Clouds Like Water!"
Chu Ming swung his sword, the world fell silent, followed by the sound of air bursting. As if the world split in two, Sword Light reached the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon in an instant.
Sparks flew, a few black scales flew off its back, at the same time a trickle of blood slowly oozed out, Chu Ming’s sword had indeed injured the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon.
The Iron-Backed Flame Dragon roared in pain, its inner Fire Essence rapidly rising, turning into whirling flames, swallowing the surroundings, burning trees!
A hot golden beam of light spewed from its mouth, the space distorted, the airwaves rolled, visible even from miles away.
The ground cracked with loud noise, without any hesitation, Chu Ming turned and fled the scene. Though he wasn’t afraid of the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon, to defeat it would require some effort, which might attract other Overlords of the Blood Bee Mountain Range.
Wind blew on both sides, Chu Ming’s body turned into an aurora, appearing five hundred meters away almost instantly, the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon was not so easily shaken off, chasing fiercely behind, trees breaking, the ground pitted.
A red Flame Bomb exploded to Chu Ming’s left, he could clearly feel the terrifying heat within, immediately creating a crater ten meters in diameter on the ground.
As Chu Ming accelerated, the distance between them grew larger, within a stick of incense time, Chu Ming had completely left the Iron-Backed Flame Dragon behind.
When entering the Blood Bee Mountain Range, their pace was slow due to searching for the marked spot on the Beast Skin Map, but leaving was much quicker.
In just a day, Chu Ming had exited the Blood Bee Mountain Range.
Taking out the Soul-Controlling Conch from his Storage Ring, he blew on it, blue ripples spreading around, a high-pitched cry echoed from the sky.
The Sky Eagle landed gently in front of Chu Ming, stirring airwaves and dust.
Leaping up, Chu Ming stood steadily on the Sky Eagle’s back, gazing into the distance.
"It’s time to return to Celestial Travel Sect!"
Chu Ming murmured, calculating that he had been away from Celestial Travel Sect for half a year.
