Just as Ye Xiao was about to open his mouth, another wave of terrifying aura appeared, causing the tens of thousands of swords locking on Ye Xiao to tremble for a second before everything disappeared. The sword hanging in the air took back its Sword Domain and calmed down.
Ye Xiao was familiar with this aura too well, for it was exactly the aura of the red-haired lady. By now, her aura has already solved two of the greatest hurdle coming Ye Xiao's way.
Ye Xiao's heart calmed down when everything returned to normal. He found himself standing in his previous spot. Looking at the sword hanging in mid-air, Ye Xiao felt that the sword was still humming, however, there was no longer any sharpness in the air nor was there any sword aura. He could also feel that the sword was very excited at the moment.
Maybe, it is because the sword felt the red-haired lady's aura and understood that it is time for its freedom. It became excited because it clearly knew that it was about time to go back in its master's hand once again.
There were originally four chains binding the sword. They were not only there to seal the sword, but they were there also to maintain the balance at the perfect level. The four chains were like a human's pair of hands and legs. If even one of them is not there, the human body will not be complete.
Because of the shattering of one of the chains, the other chains started losing balance. They also can not make use of the catalyst that was the Cylindrical Stones, nor could they absorb the energy from the Extreme Origin Liquid. They became useless very soon and loosened up.
Ye Xiao knew that it was only for dozens of seconds of time. Just as a human can still do their daily work even after losing a hand or a leg but with great difficulty, these chains will also take dozens of seconds before they'll come back to the track. So, he has to complete his job before the three chains come back to their tracks and once again completely seal off the sword.
Ye Xiao could have broken the formation directly and obtained the sword, however, the formation here was too high level. With Ye Xiao's current strength, even though he knew how to break the formation, he could do nothing. So, he could only choose to use the roughest method and forcefully break one of the four Cylindrical Stones to obtain a few seconds of time.
Ye Xiao immediately flew in the air and arrived beside the sword. The sword also let out a humming sound because of its excitement. Ye Xiao extended his hand and caught hold of the sword. At the same time, he activated both the Golden Crow Bloodline and the Nine Sun Eternal Body, causing waves of flames to appear, and soon the entire space was filled with hot air.
Even if an Immortal Emperor or Ancient Immortal were to come here, they couldn't stay at this place for more than a few seconds. The temperature here was so high all because of the Golden Crow Bloodline. Its lethality was many times stronger than the Nine Sun Eternal Body.
But Ye Xiao was confident that as long as he can bring the Nine Sun Eternal Body back to his original body, he can evolve it continuously and rank it amongst the Rarest Physiques in the Divine Realm.
Because the three chains had already lost their balance right now, they became too weak. Ye Xiao took the advantage of their weakness and attacked them using the Nine Sun Eternal Body and the Golden Crow Bloodline, causing them to loosen up completely. Ye Xiao easily pulled the sword out from the middle of the wrapping of the chains. Those chains slide down the sword's blade as Ye Xiao pulled the sword up.
Immediately after that, Ye Xiao's body flashed and appeared beside the pot in the middle of the four cylindrical stones, one of which was now cut in two halves. At some point, a pill bottle appeared in his hand. He hurriedly filled the Extreme Origin Liquid in the pill bottle and kept it in his spatial ring. He then took out the second pill bottle, opened its cap, and was about to fill it with the Extreme Origin Liquid when the ground suddenly trembled and the clanging of metals sounded.
Ye Xiao knew what was happening, so without caring about filling the second pill bottle with Extreme Origin Liquid, Ye Xiao dashed toward the barrier made up of light. He wanted to escape this place as soon as possible.
The moment Ye Xiao entered this space and observed the formation, he knew what he has to do. The formation was too high levelled and could do three works. It could seal, defend, and attack.
Talking about sealing, it sealed the sword. As for defense, if Ye Xiao would have attacked the chains, formation, or the pot in the middle, even if he would have attacked for thousands of years, he couldn't have dealt the slightest of damage to either of them. Only those Cylindrical Stones, which were also the catalyst here, were this entire thing's weakness. So, Ye Xiao chose to attack it.
And he knew after he'll take away the sword, the chains would lose their target. So, they'll lastly attack whoever is present in the space. Now, only Ye Xiao was in this space and the chains have regained their strength but found no target to seal. So, their next target was Ye Xiao.
As Ye Xiao dashed towards the barrier, he felt air piercing sound from three directions. From his left, right, and back, three sharp and pointy chains were attacking him. If the attack lands on his body, Ye Xiao will at least be heavily injured, or at most, he'll directly be killed.
Fortunately, a God Levelled Weapon was in his hand. Ye Xiao had no idea how to use the sword, however, he knew how to use a blade. So, Ye Xiao slashed out the sword like a blade, making a direct counterattack.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Three clanging sounds rang out and the three chains attacking Ye Xiao were diverted. However, at the same time, Ye Xiao felt like vomiting out blood because of the counterforce surging in his body. He was weaker than the chains to begin with, when his attack collided against the three chains, Ye Xiao's entire body vibrated heavily and his blood was in turmoil. His internal circulation almost deviated. His internal organs were also injured.
The moment the two attacks collided, Ye Xiao was also sent flying backward. Fortunately, because of this, he arrived very close to the barrier and soon reached it. He forcefully suppressed the tinge of vomiting and slashed out with the sword in his hand once again, causing a crack to appear on the barrier.
Ye Xiao hurriedly passed the crack and turned back to look. The crack started healing visible to the naked eye. It didn't even take five seconds for the crack to heal completely.
Finally, Ye Xiao couldn't hold on any longer. He vomited out many mouthfuls of blood as his face paled. In fact, his entire body paled because of the loss of too much blood.
Ye Xiao hurriedly started swimming upward. With great difficulty, he left the river trench and arrived at the surface of the river. He looked up and saw the cliff high above. He didn't know how to go there, for his internal injuries were really bad and the energy circulating inside his body was also in mess. He needed at least one hour to correct everything.
Ye Xiao had no choice. He forcefully started flying and arrived at the top of the cliff. After that, he put down the sword at the side, sat cross-legged, and started circulating his cultivation technique.
It really took him one hour to calm the chaotic energy inside his body.
As for his internal injuries, if he wanted to heal them, he needed recovery pills. But unfortunately, he didn't have any recovery pill in his hand at the moment.
"What should I do?"
Ye Xiao was still thinking deeply about what he should do about his internal injuries when he suddenly felt warmth spreading inside his body. He was surprised and immediately started observing what was happening, only to find golden blood passing everywhere and healing his internal injuries slowly. The golden blood brought a wave of high temperature that could easily roast a Martial God Level demonic beast into edible meat.
"Although the healing speed is slow, there is no doubt that my internal injuries are healing. I didn't think that the Golden Crow Bloodline is capable of healing internal injuries as well. It really came to me as a surprise."
Ye Xiao started resting while letting the Golden Crow Bloodline heal his body. It took him several hours of time to completely heal the internal injuries. But at least, there was now no problem in his body.
It was time to leave!
