Xuanyuan Domain, Might of the Sword Emperor

Ye Feng nodded and extended his right hand. A golden ancient sword appeared in it. Although the ancient sword spirit had not been attached to any soul rings, a strange energy ripple spread outward.

Buzz

Suddenly, a distinct golden ripple spread through the surroundings. Faint golden light radiated from Ye Feng, reaching a radius of fifty meters and enveloping both Ning Rongrong and Sword Saint Chen Xin.

Boom

Ning Rongrong dropped to one knee, her face pale as she stared at Ye Feng in utter shock. Even Sword Douluo Sword Saint Chen Xin, who bore the title of Sword, looked even paler, his face white as snow, like that of a corpse.

Cough, cough

Sword Saint Chen Xin coughed softly. He could clearly feel the oppressive force emanating from Ye Feng's domain. If not for the pride in his bones, with his Soul Power already depleted, Sword Saint Chen Xin would have been kneeling on one knee before Ye Feng just like Ning Rongrong.

"Teacher!" Ye Feng cried out anxiously, his heart aching as he hurriedly withdrew his domain.

"A martial spirit domain!" Ning Rongrong rose to her feet and looked at Ye Feng enviously.

Sword Saint Chen Xin stroked Ye Feng's head, a gratified smile appearing on his face. "Not bad. Your Xuanyuan Sword Spirit Domain really is stronger than your teacher's Seven Kill Domain. I have a strong feeling that the position of the continent's number one weapon martial spirit will change hands in the near future."

All along, the Clear Sky Hammer had been the foremost weapon martial spirit of the Power Attack System on Douluo Continent, as well as the nemesis of all Power Attack System martial spirits. Although Sword Saint Chen Xin possessed the Seven Kill Sword and the Seven Kill Domain, even a peak-level soul master with the Seven Kill Sword martial spirit was still no match for a soul master of the same rank with the Clear Sky Hammer martial spirit. Why? Because the Clear Sky Sect possessed three sect-defending ultimate arts: the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, the Haotian Nine Perfections, and the Great Sumeru Hammer.

Ye Feng had already been taught the Chen Clan's ultimate art, Sword and Man as One, by Sword Saint Chen Xin, and had already crossed its threshold. Now that Ye Feng had awakened a martial spirit domain even stronger than Sword Saint Chen Xin's, Sword Saint Chen Xin believed Ye Feng had a chance to make his Xuanyuan Sword the continent's number one weapon martial spirit.

"Senior Brother, hurry and tell me, what abilities does your martial spirit domain have?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

"The domain of my Xuanyuan Sword martial spirit is called the Sword Emperor Domain!"

"Sword Emperor Domain?"

"My domain can command all sword-type weapons within it for my own use. It can only control the sword-type weapons within the domain, not soul masters who possess sword-type weapons. That is why I call it the Sword Emperor Domain," Ye Feng answered.

Being able to control all sword-type weapons within the domain truly lived up to the name Sword Emperor.

"What else?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

The moment Ye Feng had unleashed his martial spirit domain, Ning Rongrong had felt an extremely powerful oppressive force. The reduction in her combat power had been far from minor.

"Besides that, it can weaken the combat power of soul masters within the domain by thirty percent, while increasing my own combat power by one hundred percent," Ye Feng answered.

"That much?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed in surprise.

As a Support System soul master, Ning Rongrong understood deeply what this meant. Her martial spirit was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which meant her Soul Power Level was destined to reach only level eighty in this life. Relying on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial spirit, the limit of Ning Rongrong's support ability was eighty percent. Yet Ye Feng's Sword Emperor Domain could increase his own combat power by one hundred percent while weakening his enemies' combat power by thirty percent. Altogether, it created a gap of one hundred and thirty percent between Ye Feng and the other soul masters within the domain.

"Mm."

Ye Feng nodded, then said regretfully, "Although the domain's enhancement is this great, it also has one flaw. It cannot distinguish friend from foe. Even friends standing within the Sword Emperor Domain will still have their combat power weakened by thirty percent."

"Uh!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes went blank. Just now, her combat power had indeed been severely suppressed. It was as if the pressure of a king was restraining her strength.

Ning Rongrong glanced at her Sword Grandpa. Sword Saint Chen Xin's Seven Kill Domain also did not distinguish friend from foe. It was just as domineering as Ye Feng's martial spirit domain.

Sword Saint Chen Xin looked at Ye Feng with regret in his eyes. He muttered to himself, "It is a pity that your teacher has devoted his entire life to the sword. Aside from the Xuanyuan Sword martial spirit, you also possess the Nine Heart Profound Tang martial spirit and the Eye of Hell martial spirit. Your teacher will think of another way. Perhaps I can make you the first soul master in the world of soul masters to gather three domains within one body."

As Sword Saint Chen Xin spoke, he could not help but grow excited.

In the history of the soul master world, few soul masters had possessed martial spirit domains. A soul master with two different domains had never been seen or heard of. If Ye Feng could obtain three domains, he would be recorded in history and regarded as a legend.

"If..."

Sword Saint Chen Xin's sharp eyes fixed on Ye Feng.

If Ye Feng could obtain four domains, then... then... then...

The more Sword Saint Chen Xin thought about it, the more excited he became. If that truly happened, would not his disciple Ye Feng stand at the very peak of the soul master world's pyramid?

"Perhaps..."

Sword Saint Chen Xin freely imagined Ye Feng's bright future.

Once Ye Feng became a Titled Douluo, could he rely on four great domains to avenge Sword Saint Chen Xin's Dad, Chen Jianjun, by defeating Spirit Hall's Judgment First Elder, Qian Daoliu, who was known as invincible in the sky?

Ye Feng currently possessed only the Sword Emperor Domain. In Sword Saint Chen Xin's imagination, the other three great domains would be the Nine Heart Profound Tang Domain, the Eye of Hell Domain, and Divine Slaughter's Domain.

To obtain Divine Slaughter's Domain, one had to go to Slaughter City and pass the Road to Hell.

The Nine Heart Profound Tang had mutated from the Nine Heart Hibiscus. Sword Saint Chen Xin could not be certain whether that soul master, who was merely a Soul Douluo in the eightieth level range, had the ability to awaken a martial spirit domain for others as he had.

As for the Eye of Hell martial spirit—

Sword Saint Chen Xin had roamed the soul master world for many years, yet he had never heard of any soul master in the current world who possessed such a martial spirit. Making Ye Feng awaken the domain of the Eye of Hell martial spirit would be even more difficult.

Sword Saint Chen Xin's fragmented words drew the attention of Ye Feng and Ning Rongrong, who were concerned about him.

Ye Feng frowned slightly and asked with concern, "Master, what are you talking about?"

Sword Saint Chen Xin reached out and habitually patted Ye Feng lightly on the shoulder. "Disciple, it is dawn. Your teacher must leave."

"So soon?" Ye Feng asked reluctantly.

"Mm. Put away these ancient swords. Your Sword Emperor Domain can control all sword-shaped weapons within its range. These ancient swords will be of great use to you," Sword Saint Chen Xin instructed.

"Mm." Ye Feng nodded.

Sword Saint Chen Xin summoned the Seven Kill Sword and used the little Soul Power remaining in his body to fly on his sword, leaving the mountaintop.
