Chapter 205 The Identity of the Mysterious Man
They groped for a long time but found that there was no way to get in.
The original entrance has long since turned into a wall.
Just when they were at a loss, Feng Tianning's cold voice sounded behind them:
"Close your eyes."
"Use your spiritual sense to see."
Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan subconsciously followed her instructions. Sure enough, after closing their eyes, the original Zhaixing Tower appeared in their sea of consciousness.
They walked towards the door in the sea of consciousness, pushed it gently, and the door opened without any obstruction.
When Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan opened their eyes again, they suddenly found that the misty Zhaixing Tower in front of them had disappeared, and was replaced by a cliff.
One more step and they would fall and be smashed to pieces.
"Tianning, this..." Xuan Gou Chen looked at Feng Tianning hesitantly.
"It's just a smokescreen."
"Don't be afraid."
Hearing her say this, Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan also nodded, closed their eyes, gritted their teeth and stepped out.
The imagined feeling of weightlessness did not come, but instead they stepped into the room.
Only after their feet were completely in did Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan slowly open their eyes.
At this moment, they were on the first floor of the Zhaixing Tower, and the surroundings had not changed much from when they left.
"Let's go, it's on the top floor." Feng Tianning said lightly.
The three of them went all the way to the top of the Zhaixing Tower. When they pushed the door open, they saw an unexpected person meditating on the couch.
"Sister Qiao Zi?" Xuan Gou Chen called tentatively.
Feng Qiaozi slowly opened his eyes, his gaze swept over the three people at the door, and finally stopped on Feng Tianning.
"Sister Qiao Zi, how come you woke up?" Qin Guan also asked in confusion.
But Feng Qiaozi ignored him. Instead, he smiled at Feng Tianning, slowly stood up and walked in front of her.
She made the same "ho ho" sound as the shadow, but Feng Tianning suddenly understood what she said.
"Greetings, my Lord."
"Feng Qiaozi" slowly knelt down and saluted Feng Tianning solemnly.
Feng Tianning raised his eyebrows and looked at "Feng Qiaozi" for a long time before speaking:
"Are you a weapon spirit?"
"Yes," she replied respectfully.
"I have survived until now by absorbing your power. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Feng Tianning looked at him coldly without saying anything.
Her power nourished a spirit, but this spirit relied on absorbing the lives of innocent people to cultivate.
In the final analysis, it was she who harmed those people.
Feng Tianning was a little annoyed at the moment and didn't have a good face towards the spirit of the weapon.
But the spirit of the weapon seemed not to feel it and continued to speak:
"I originally practiced in a dry well in the cold palace of the Great Cang Kingdom's imperial palace. I happened to meet the current Emperor Cang Xuan and made a deal with him."
"I helped him unify the world, and he regularly offered me human sacrifices."
Feng Tianning's eyes grew a little colder.
"So you cultivate by devouring living people?"
The spirit nodded and said proudly:
"The living taste much better than the dead. At first I only ate the dead bodies thrown into the well."
"After meeting Emperor Cang Xuan, my food became better, and my cultivation also improved by leaps and bounds. Now I can even transform."
Feng Tianning only felt that his fists had become a little hard. He took a deep breath and suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.
"Why are you in Feng Qiaozi's body now?"
"And how did you break my barrier?"
The spirit of the weapon smiled and said:
"I grew by absorbing your power. We are of the same origin, so I can break the barrier you set up."
"As for this woman..."
"Her cultivation is quite high, and her soul is also dormant. I will borrow her body for now, which is just enough to nourish myself."
"But I won't borrow it for too long. I'll return it to her once I've developed a human form."
"What will happen to her then?"
The spirit of the weapon had an indifferent expression on its face, and its eyes were filled with disdain:
"Of course he will die."
"Don't worry, sir. A mere mortal cultivator can provide you with far less help than a weapon spirit like me. Her death is a worthy one."
"I will stay by your side and clear all obstacles for you."
Feng Tianning nodded, it seemed that there was no misunderstanding.
"Hongmeng."
She summoned the Hongmeng Holy Sword in a cold voice, with the tip of the sword pointing straight at the weapon spirit.
Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan were shocked by this sudden change and looked at them in confusion.
They only saw Feng Tianning and Feng Qiaozi mumbling a bunch of words that they couldn't understand, and soon the two of them were pointing their swords at each other.
"Tianning, is there any misunderstanding?"
Feng Tianning said coldly:
"The spirit of the weapon is now possessing Feng Qiaozi. If this continues, her soul will be absorbed by the spirit of the weapon, and she will become a mindless living dead from now on."
"This weapon spirit harmed everyone in the imperial palace and nearly devoured all the people in Xuancheng."
"It...is unforgivable."
Hearing Feng Tianning say this, Qin Guan and Xuan Gou Chen stopped asking questions, summoned their respective weapons, and stared at the weapon spirit with vigilance.
"Why!" The spirit was stunned for a moment, then roared:
"I do this all for you!"
"Only when I become stronger can I be of help to you and clear the obstacles for you."
"Even if the process was a bit extreme, it only resulted in the deaths of a few insignificant mortals. This entire Fangcun Realm belongs to me, and their life and death should be under my control!"
There was a hint of murderous intent in Feng Tianning's eyes.
"No need to waste time talking."
She took the lead and the powerful sword energy continued to attack the weapon spirit.
The spirit of the weapon is now only possessed by Feng Qiaozi, and has almost no power to resist, and can only dodge.
Until there was no way to retreat, and the Hongmeng Holy Sword was tightly against her head, the weapon spirit trembled and said:
"My lord, my lord!"
"I was wrong, I won't do it again!"
Feng Tianning did not retract his sword because of her words, but asked:
"Did you create General Chen's dream?"
"Did you erase the memories of the Emperor and the Crown Prince of Beimang?"
The spirit of the weapon nodded fearfully, its eyes filled with horror.
"No, not me!"
"It was that Emperor Cang Xuan who forced me to do this!"
"He said that only in this way would the people of Beimang think they had planted undercover agents in Dacang Country, thus revealing more flaws."
"Sir, he forced me to do all this!"
"Besides, I've also heard that although General Chen is dead, those people in Xuancheng are still alive, and I haven't committed any unforgivable mistakes!"
Feng Tianning sneered:
"Those people did survive, but they didn't live past fifty."
"Being in a dream for so long has already caused irreversible damage to their souls."
"They are just a few mortals..." The spirit of the weapon was still retorting in a low voice.
