Xie Zhou quickly gained the power of Xuanwu's inheritance, which made him even more powerful. Walking on the road was like walking on flat ground, and he was not affected by that special power at all. At first, he was indeed a little unaccustomed to using Xuanwu's inheritance power, but he became more proficient later.
She seemed to sense something drawing her in, and continued exploring the valley step by step. Passing by the blood flowers and crossing a wooden bridge, she saw an even more desolate hillside, and soon arrived near the body of the ancient demon weapon.
Xie Zhou looked up and saw a place that was particularly bright, with a lot of black energy surrounding the weapon.
After peering through the crack, Xie Zhou realized that it was an ancient demonic sword.
Xie Zhou stepped forward, intending to examine the power of the demonic sword, but before he could even touch the black energy, he was attacked by a powerful resentment and thrown several meters away.
"ah…"
"This thing is incredibly powerful!"
Fortunately, he was protected by the power of Xuanwu's inheritance, otherwise the gas would have completely eroded him long ago. Seeing that this sword was so powerful and had such great strength, if it fell into the hands of that ancient demon, there would definitely be a lot of dead and dying.
The system detected the divine weapon and said, "Host, this ancient demonic sword is a legendary weapon of an ancient demon. The power contained within is extremely strong, and its corrosive and killing power is also very powerful. Ordinary people cannot seal it, but Fengyun Valley can. It should be because those powerful beings spent a lot of effort to suppress it during the previous war between gods and demons."
"System, yes, I can clearly feel its hostility, but it will really take a lot of power to seal it!"
However, she absolutely had to do these things. If she didn't seal away this incredibly powerful weapon, what would happen if that ancient demonic beast were to be reborn in the future? At that time, Xie Zhou would probably be pierced through the heart by this sword and die a gruesome death, utterly powerless.
Xie Zhou then stepped forward again, using the power of Xuanwu's inheritance to protect herself. Then, she held her own power in each hand, one part being the sword intent of life, and the other part being the power of chaotic divine lightning. With the power of Xuanwu's inheritance, she refused to believe that these could not seal this ancient demonic sword.
She quickly placed several talismans in the four corners of the ancient demonic sword, then flew above it, concentrating all her power on the sealing technique.
Xie Zhou's strength was greatly enhanced. She concentrated her magic on the magic array, and several powerful arrays with strong suppressive force appeared above the ancient demon sword, gradually taking shape.
"Ah ah..."
She strengthened her hands, and the formation was complete. Xie Zhou raised his hand and pressed the formation down, striking the ancient demonic sword with this extremely powerful formation.
Soon Xie Zhou landed steadily, watching the formation slowly strike the ancient demonic sword.
But just as success was imminent, the ancient demonic sword suddenly unleashed an extremely powerful aura, blocking the formation. Xie Zhou was stunned for a moment, and the system said at this time: "Host, something bad has happened. A powerful aura has been detected. It seems that this ancient demonic sword has gained its own consciousness."
The formation was actually shattered by this powerful aura, "Boom..."
Xie Zhou was immediately surprised. He had used almost half of his power to forge this formation, but why couldn't he suppress this ancient demonic sword?
Soon, as the formation shattered, her heart felt as if it were being slowly stripped away. She collapsed to the ground, watching as the formation she had painstakingly created was destroyed overnight by the intent of the ancient demonic sword.
She looked completely unsure of herself, staring blankly in that direction, unaware that a wisp of demonic energy had suddenly flowed out from within the black mist.
The consciousness of that ancient demonic sword quickly invaded Xie Zhou's mental sea.
Although Xie Zhou expended a great deal of power for this sealing formation, the source of that power still resides within her. Therefore, should there be any danger, the power within her will regroup and, even if it is negligible, will still emerge to protect its master.
Xie Zhou felt a very powerful impact in his spiritual world. He realized something was wrong and that something must have happened, so he quickly separated a wisp of his primordial spirit and sent it into his spiritual world.
Upon closer inspection, she discovered that the area was filled with murky smoke, with wisps of black energy besieging a corner of her spiritual world. At that moment, the Chaos Divine Thunder immediately appeared.
The Chaos Divine Thunder activated its self-protection mechanism, continuously climbing into Xie Zhou's spiritual world.
It was almost transparent, and lightning began to strike the consciousness of the ancient demonic sword that was relentlessly devouring Xie Zhou's spiritual power.
Upon hearing that move, the wisps of black energy seemed to be stimulated and began to tremble. Then, the two sides appeared to transform into generals engaged in battle.
When the Chaos Divine Lightning attacked the consciousness of the Ancient Demon Sword, it suffered considerable impact, but the consciousness of the Ancient Demon Sword was not much better off; it also lost a portion of its consciousness.
These two equally matched forces began a fierce battle within Xie Zhou's mental sea of consciousness.
"Bang bang bang!..."
They then collided with each other in Xie Zhou's mental world.
Xie Zhou felt as if two unknown forces were clashing inside his head, causing a series of sharp pains. Clutching his aching head, Xie Zhou was powerless to stop the two forces.
They continued their fierce battle, and she tried to stop them, but she couldn't. The Chaos Divine Lightning was no longer under her control, and if the Chaos Divine Lightning hadn't stopped it in time, the consciousness of the ancient demonic sword would probably have devoured half of her spiritual power.
But that won't work either. They are fighting in their own mental worlds, and the friction they generate is much more intense than fighting outside. Every bit of energy from their attacks impacts their own mental worlds, causing significant damage to Xie Zhou's mental state.
But now she could only endure the pain. She wanted to seal the ancient demon sword's true form once again, since its consciousness was currently fighting within its own spiritual world and the chaotic divine lightning, and it had no time to spare.
Once the original body is sealed, why would she be afraid that this consciousness would do evil?
Xie Zhou got up, wanting to set up a sealing formation, but the stinging pain from the mental energy made her feel wave after wave of impact with each movement, so she reached out her hand and then withdrew it.
This won't do. A surge of power rose within Xie Zhou. She slammed her fist into the ground, struggled to her feet, and moved toward the ancient demonic sword with the fastest speed she had ever used.
There is still a lot of resentment lingering on it; this sword is indeed very evil!
Xie Zhou silently recited the incantation to protect his heart meridian, and then once again used his power to continuously form a sealing formation.
"Ugh... Pfft..."
Halfway through the formation, Xie Zhou's mental energy suddenly snapped, causing him to suffer a backlash and spit out several mouthfuls of stagnant blood.
