Chapter 495
When Da Huang first entered the stone cave and saw the blood-red sword, he was sure that it was not an ordinary item. He was ecstatic. Maybe it was because of the influence of the blood-red sword, he became hot-headed and wanted to give the blood-red sword to Xiao Chen.
However, Da Huang was too careless. Because he was too close to the blood-red sword, he was hit. First, he was suppressed by the pressure of the blood-red sword. Then, the blood-red light severely affected his consciousness and soul. Now, he was crawling on the ground, unable to move forward or retreat.
“Ah?”
Xiao Chen was once again awakened by the roar of the Lion King. He was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He was glad that if it wasn’t for Da Huang’s roar, he would have been hit by the blood-red sword. He had to be careful.
Xiao Chen began to resist the invasion of the blood-red light on his soul and consciousness. He struggled to move his body against the stone wall of the cave. He wanted to see Da Huang behind the stone platform. He wanted to see how Da Huang was doing. Was he injured?
Was he in a normal mental state?
Xiao Chen didn’t look at the evil and domineering blood-red sword. He was afraid that he would be lost again. However, he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. The blood-red sword gave him a familiar feeling. It was as if he and the blood-red sword were a pair of old friends. It could be tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, or even millions of years, or even longer.
“Ah?”
Xiao Chen’s alertness was heightened, and a strange feeling appeared in his head. Furthermore, the shadow of the blood-red greatsword was floating and sinking in his mind, appearing and disappearing from time to time. He couldn’t help but be shocked, and asked himself, “Why would such a strange thought appear in my head?
Is it because of the blood-red sword again? ”
Xiao Chen shook his head hard to get rid of the messy thoughts and the shadow of the blood-red sword out of his mind. Then, he sped up. Although the blood-red sword was hundreds of meters away from him, the invisible majesty of the blood-red sword still gave Xiao Chen a great pressure, affecting Xiao Chen’s speed.
After spending the time it took for an incense stick to burn and moving about 500 feet, Xiao Chen finally saw the Lion King behind the stone platform. He saw the Lion King prostrating on the ground, seemingly worshipping the blood-red greatsword in front of him. However, there was a look of unwillingness on his face. His aura was incomparably violent, and his golden eyes actually flashed with a hint of black light. It was very strange.
“Not good!
Da Huang can’t hold on much longer! ”
When Xiao Chen saw the Lion King’s appearance, his expression changed drastically. He knew that things were not good. This was because he realized that Da Huang was showing signs of being possessed. Once he was possessed, Da Huang would not recognize anyone. He would even kill his elder brother.
Feeling extremely afraid of the evil blood-red greatsword, Xiao Chen anxiously transmitted his voice to Da Huang, “Da Huang!
Wake up!
You have been affected by that sword!
Danger! ”
Da Huang was indifferent to Xiao Chen’s voice transmission. It was as if he did not hear it. His condition was getting worse. It probably would not take long before his soul would be completely controlled by the blood-red greatsword. When that happened, it would be too late.
Xiao Chen was burning with anxiety. He circulated the Power of Desolates into his voice and shouted, “Da Huang!
Wake up!
I am your elder brother, Xiao Chen!
Wake up! ”
Da Huang turned a deaf ear to him and did not even look at Xiao Chen. He continued prostrating on the ground. From the looks of it, he had been tortured by the blood-red greatsword. From this, it could be seen how terrifying the blood-red greatsword was. There was no one controlling it. Just by being stuck in a stone platform, it was able to subdue a seventh-grade Lion King with its energy beam and Sword Spirit pressure. This was a mythical matter.
“What do we do?
What do we do!? ”
When Xiao Chen saw that he could not wake Da Huang up, he felt anxious and heavy. His mind raced as he tried to think of a feasible solution. However, after thinking for a while, he could not think of a feasible solution. Faced with such a situation, it seemed like they had entered a dead end.
Perhaps, there was only one solution. That was for Xiao Chen to walk to the stone platform and retrieve the blood-red greatsword. However, this method was extremely dangerous. There was a slim chance of survival. If things went wrong, not only would he not be able to save Da Huang, Xiao Chen might even lose his life.
Even a strong Lion King could not withstand the power of the blood-red greatsword. Xiao Chen’s strength was far inferior to the Lion King’s, so how could he withstand the power of the blood-red greatsword?
“I’ll risk it!”
Xiao Chen would not sit idly and watch as the Lion King got into trouble. He took a deep look at the Lion King and his eyes suddenly turned resolute. His expression also returned to being cold. He began to walk towards the huge stone platform in the middle of the cave.
“Da!
Da!
Da! ”
The cave was very quiet. Xiao Chen’s heavy footsteps could be heard clearly. As he got closer and closer to the stone platform, Xiao Chen found it more and more difficult to walk. Naturally, his footsteps became heavier and heavier. Xiao Chen could feel the increasing pressure, and he could not help but break out in a cold sweat.
“Ka Ka Ka!”
By the time Xiao Chen had walked two hundred feet, which was about eight hundred feet away from the stone platform, Xiao Chen could no longer straighten his back, and his legs were bent. What was even more frightening was that he could actually hear his own bones and joints making a sound that would make anyone’s scalp go numb.
Such a strong and terrifying Sword Spirit’s coercion!
“What kind of sword is this?
Why is it so terrifying?
Why doesn’t it have a master?
Is it because this sword is too evil, so it was sealed here by a powerful warrior? ”
Xiao Chen felt that his body could not take it any longer. He had no choice but to stop temporarily. If he were to continue moving forward, the Sword Spirit’s powerful coercion would be enough to crush him to the ground. This was not an alarmist’s words. He could not help but feel a deep fear towards the blood-colored sword.
The distance was at least eighty feet, but this eighty feet was like a natural moat. Xiao Chen was unable to cross it. If he took another step forward, he would be smashed to pieces.
Xiao Chen had thought of using the Power of Desolates to attack the blood-colored sword, but he did not dare to take the risk. He guessed that Da Huang must have done it before. Since Da Huang’s long-range attacks were ineffective, using long-range attacks would be a waste of energy. Xiao Chen could only take the path of subduing the blood-colored sword.
“Continue moving forward!” Time waited for no man. Something bad could happen to Da Huang at any time, so Xiao Chen could only grit his teeth and continue moving forward.
Xiao Chen’s mind was completely focused on Da Huang. He did not seem to notice something strange. That was, even the powerful Lion King could not withstand the sanguine beam, so why was he able to endure it?
And even if he approached the blood-colored sword, he could still endure it.
It was not scientific!
Something was wrong!
“Da!”
Xiao Chen did not think too much. He lifted his feet and slowly and firmly took a step forward. It was fine.
“Da!”
The second step!
It was still fine.
“Da!”
The third step!
Something had happened!
“Ka-cha!”
Xiao Chen felt that the bones in his knees were slightly dislocated. “Plop!”
He knelt on the ground with his palms on the stone ground. His entire body was in extreme pain, as though his body was about to explode.
“Ao!”
Xiao Chen was the kind of person who did not easily admit defeat. The more he suffered, the braver he became. He was unwilling to be defeated by a sword. He slowly raised his head, revealing his cold face and blood-red eyes. A beast-like roar came from the depths of his throat. The muscles in his limbs swelled, exploding with unparalleled strength. He slowly stood up against the immense pressure and straightened his spine.
