Ye Feng, holding the Tang saber, was not injured by the powerful pressure it exuded. Instead, he felt a peculiar sensation—as if he had triggered something that caused the saber to react.
Moreover, his earlier feeling was correct; the Tang saber indeed gave him the impression that it was currently very excited.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the Tang saber in Ye Feng's hand vibrated, pulling his hand and lightly swinging it at a nearby giant rock. Before the saber even touched the rock, the rock shattered.
"Whoosh!"
The next second, the Tang saber, still pulling Ye Feng's hand, flew towards a distant location, carved a large hole in a cliff, and then pulled Ye Feng up into the sky.
"What the heck is this Tang saber doing?"
Ye Feng muttered in frustration as the Tang saber carried him through the air for a while, because he found his body still unable to move, completely at the mercy of the saber.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! ~ Whoosh! ~"
Thus, Ye Feng was pulled by the Tang saber, flying back and forth in the sky.
"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going?"
Ye Feng became a little flustered, as he realized he was being pulled by the Tang saber towards the direction where the tribulation fire was falling.
No matter how much Ye Feng shouted, the Tang saber pulled him straight into the tribulation clouds.
"Chis!"
"Ah!"
In a few breaths, Ye Feng was pulled by the Tang saber into the tribulation fire. The burning sensation instantly made Ye Feng cry out in pain, but the Tang saber continued to pull him unheedingly through the tribulation fire.
"Damn it, what's this Tang saber going crazy about?"
Ye Feng was filled with anger, as the burning of the tribulation fire caused him intense pain all over his body.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng frowned slightly. He was surprised to find that the tribulation fire within his true energy seemed to be sensing the external tribulation fire and began to operate on its own. Soon, the pain caused by the external tribulation fire was greatly reduced.
"Eh?"
As Ye Feng pondered the tribulation fire within his true energy, his eyes suddenly widened.
He saw that the rust that almost covered the surface of the Tang saber had melted away significantly in the tribulation fire, becoming smoother. At first glance, it looked somewhat like it was being quenched.
"Whoosh! ~ Boom!"
At this moment, the tribulation clouds above Ye Feng darkened considerably, and an extremely dense golden flame roared down.
"Urgh! ~ Ah! Ah! ~!"
Ye Feng suddenly cried out in agony, his skin scorched in multiple places. This reminded him of his previous encounter with tribulation fire in the giant ruins.
"Ah! Ah~!"
At this moment, Wu Ye Lan, who had fainted from the burning and impact of the tribulation fire, also woke up in pain.
"Ah... Ye... Ye Feng?"
Wu Ye Lan squinted, his eyes filled with surprise. "Ye Feng, didn't you leave? Why did you come back? You'll cause the heavenly tribulation to expand, even escalate..."
"If you continue like this, none of us will escape with our bones intact in the heavenly tribulation!"
Wu Ye Lan's anxious voice reached Ye Feng's ears.
"Urgh... Senior Wu Ye... It wasn't my choice to come here; this Tang saber pulled me here... This thing seems to want to be quenched here..."
Ye Feng endured the excruciating pain of the tribulation fire's burning and erosion, speaking to Wu Ye Lan.
"Quenched... Quenched?"
Wu Ye Lan looked at Ye Feng with a look of disbelief. Heavenly tribulations were something to be avoided; this...
"Buzz!"
A faint ripple spread through the air. Immediately after, Ye Feng lifted his left foot and took another step, successfully treading on empty space.
Thus, Ye Feng walked a distance in the void, one step at a time. As he lifted his foot again, he lost his footing and fell from the void.
In a moment of urgency, he stretched out his left hand, grasping at the void. The void immediately showed ripples like water waves, and then Ye Feng grabbed onto something solid, stopping his descent.
"Ye... Ye Feng, have you comprehended spatial power?"
Seeing this, Qiao Ying murmured in extreme amazement.
"It... seems so..."
Ye Feng was also very surprised.
...
A considerable distance away from Ye Feng and Qiao Ying,
"Lord Elias... Should we escape now?"
Xikela glanced in Ye Feng's direction and quietly asked Elias.
"Escape?"
Elias, whose body had recovered, stood up and sneered, "Are you worthy of the name bestowed upon you by Lord Hades, the King of the Underworld?"
"I... Lord Elias, that brat... What he was holding just now was the legendary Blade... Blade God..."
"Even Lord Hades would..."
Xikela's face turned pale, not daring to continue.
"Hmph!"
Elias narrowed his eyes. "Xikela, stop scaring yourself. That Tang saber only looks like it, it can't possibly be... the Blade God!"
"But... but that suffocatingly powerful pressure just now... that all-encompassing... looking down on all beings..."
Xikela looked at Ye Feng, his face still full of lingering fear. The pressure emanating from the Tang saber just now had awakened a fear buried deep within him for an unknown amount of time.
