Sword Qi Phantom

Hearing his scream, Ning Qi flashed and appeared before the Heavenly Tribulation.

"Master, this is too difficult to subdue."

"There's the aura of Sword Spirit inside, constantly resisting."

Medicine Spirit said with a bitter face.

Even he was in a rather disheveled state at this moment.

His body was covered in sword wounds.

"I'll do it."

Ning Qi smiled.

Originally, he wanted to see if the Medicine Spirit could successfully subdue this Heavenly Tribulation on its own.

It now seems that he doesn't have that ability.

"Good!"

Medicine Spirit agreed without hesitation.

After he agreed, Ning Qi simply waved his hand.

"Call!"

With a wave of his hand, he summoned all the Sword Qi in the area.

In an instant, the Heavenly Tribulation was surrounded by surging Sword Qi.

"Collect it!"

Ning Qi let out a low roar and instantly absorbed all of those Sword Qi.

For a moment, the Heavenly Tribulation subsided.

"Whoosh!"

All around, only streaks of Sword-Ray surged.

"Hurry up and go!"

Seeing that Medicine Spirit still wasn't moving, Ning Qi reminded her.

"Well!"

After realizing what was happening, Medicine Spirit immediately rushed into the sword's body.

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, he successfully entered the interior of the Heavenly Tribulation.

He had originally planned to take action after he came in.

However, they soon discovered Ning Qi's Divine Soul and entered with him.

After he came in, Chong Medicine Spirit smiled.

"You continue, I'll protect you!"

After Ning Qi reminded him, he opened up his Divine Sense to explore further.

It occupied the space in just a moment.

The Heavenly Tribulation sensed its master's presence and ceased its violent rampage.

Seeing this, Medicine Spirit circulated his Life Essence.

Waves of air erupted from it.

Amidst these surging air currents...

In the blink of an eye, he activated the Heavenly Profound Sword Art he had refined within his body.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, streaks of chilling Sword Qi began to surge and ripple.

In the blink of an eye, the Cultivation Method began to permeate the sword's body.

"Buzz!"

However, just as Medicine Spirit was preparing to subdue the sword body...

A cloud of gray Sword Qi suddenly surged from the depths of the sword.

After the Sword Qi appeared, it suddenly attacked Medicine Spirit.

In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived at the Medicine Spirit's side.

Without any mercy, it slashed down towards the Medicine Spirit's head.

"Don't even think about it!"

Medicine Spirit was not to be outdone.

After letting out a roar, it suddenly exerted its strength.

In the blink of an eye, he had circulated all the Life Essence in his body.

He then suddenly intensified his aura.

As a result, the Heavenly Profound Sword Art he was practicing became even stronger.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

The two then collided.

A series of thunderous roars erupted.

All around, arcs of electricity flickered.

It was as if they wanted to obliterate everything here.

Then, in the midst of their fierce battle, the entire area was suddenly enveloped.

It began to churn and surge uncontrollably.

The next moment, thick fog billowed up from the area.

Within the thick fog, several Sword Qi also condensed.

Then, it surged towards the Medicine Spirit.

Ning Qi knew what was going on at a glance.

It was clearly the former Sword Spirit of this place, who, upon discovering the intruder, prepared to kill the outsider.

However, with Ning Qi around, this situation will not be allowed to happen.

"Hmph, don't even think about it!"

Ning Qi snorted coldly, then suddenly rushed over.

After arriving, he channeled his Immortal Power and suddenly suppressed the enemy, shouting, "Get out of my way!"

"Whoosh!"

These Sword Qi appeared after they discovered that Ning Qi had also intervened.

They stopped pretending.

Seizing the opportunity, they suddenly charged towards Ning Qi.

In just a moment, it tore the void apart.

The space within the sword body became extremely turbulent.

"Good, well done!"

"You're actually playing this game with me."

Ning Qi immediately became interested, revealing a surge of fighting spirit.

He had always felt that subduing the Heavenly Tribulation was far too easy.

So, the Sword Qi had been waiting for him all along.

It seems that there will be a price to pay to subdue such a powerful artifact.

"Master, what should we do? This guy was just feigning surrender at first!"

Medicine Spirit also noticed something amiss.

He initially thought it didn't matter, but now it seems things aren't as simple as he thought.

"Don't worry, you continue, I'll handle it!"

Ning Qi didn't care at all.

After uttering a single sentence, he suddenly condensed his true form as well.

Just now, I was using my Divine Sense to fight back, which clearly underestimated the Sword Qi here.

Now that the main body has arrived, it is clearly prepared to completely suppress it.

Since you're useless within the Heavenly Tribulation, then get out of here.

Ning Qi thought to himself, and then began to exert his strength.

With the circulation of Immortal Power, the Netherworld Ghostfire within his body also surged and erupted.

In the blink of an eye, all the Sword Qi here was enveloped within it.

"Sizzle----"

The Sword Qi was shrouded in his Netherworld Ghostfire.

In an instant, it began to be refined and opened up.

The Sword Qi, which had been powerful, was now being suppressed.

He was completely devoid of his previous arrogance.

The Sword Qi continued to weaken.

The thick gray fog began to gradually thin out.

"Come, refine this cloud of mist!"

Ning Qi waved his hand, instantly sending the gray mist flying.

It shot towards the Medicine Spirit.

"Good!"

Medicine Spirit didn't stand on ceremony and agreed.

It suddenly enveloped it, and then began to seriously refine the gray mist.

At first, the cloud of gray fog was unconvinced.

They began to resist his prohibition with all their might.

However, Ning Qi didn't give him any chance at all.

Then, he simply waved his hand.

He suddenly suppressed a wisp of Immortal Power.

"Whoosh!"

In the blink of an eye, the gray fog was completely suppressed.

In this way, refining the Medicine Spirit here becomes much easier.

"Thank you, Master!"

Medicine Spirit quickly expressed her gratitude.

"Hurry up and refine it!"

"There's still a cloud of gray mist below; I'm going to capture it!"

After Ning Qi gave the warning, he suddenly flew down into the void below.

In the blink of an eye, it had vanished.

When it reappeared, it had moved to the bottom.

At this moment, countless honeycomb-like spaces appeared here.

Within each one, there were surging Sword Qi.

However, they are trapped inside and cannot get out at all.

Looking at the situation before him, Ning Qi gradually realized something.

These are the passageways that everyone encountered when they came in.

In other words, is the sword connected to the outside world?

However, that's not quite right. Perhaps it's because the sword's owner replicated everything inside the sword.

Ning Qi thought for a moment, then refocused his attention.

It has been moved back to the front.

Then a cloud of black mist appeared here.

It was that patch of gray mist he had been staring at.

Upon arriving here, it turned into black mist.

"Playing tricks!"

Ning Qi said disdainfully, "You still have Divine Sense, don't you? Come out."

There was no reaction after he said that.

However, Ning Qi knew very well that this was just a facade.

Clearly, there's still something wrong here.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to deliberately lure him here.

"If you don't show up, I'll destroy this place!"

Seeing that there was still no movement after a long time, Ning Qi finally lost his patience.

As he spoke, he immediately began to circulate the Immortal Power within his body.

Then it suddenly pressed down downwards.

Streams of Immortal Power surged forth, instantly distorting and deforming the area.

However, something surprising happened to Ning Qi immediately.

Under his gaze, everything before them began to change.

The passage, which had been twisted and deformed, gradually began to be repaired.

In the blink of an eye, it was back to normal.

Oh, so this is the power of the Heavenly Tribulation; it can self-repair.

No wonder it hasn't been destroyed after all these years.

Ning Qi quickly understood.

Since this is within the scope of this Heavenly Tribulation, all the problems encountered here are caused by the Heavenly Tribulation.

After thinking it through, Ning Qi frowned.

This makes it difficult to refine the material.

If he can repair it, then the Sword Qi can also be infinitely condensed anew.

In other words, it is very difficult to subdue this sword.

No, I am already a Swordsmanship Inheritance.

Then, let's try using the Heavenly Profound Sword Art.

After a moment's thought, he immediately began to execute the Sword Art techniques.

Then, sharp Sword Qi began to crisscross his body.

The next moment, he even actively circulated the Immortal Power within his body.

Then a sword materialized out of thin air.

It's exactly the same as Heavenly Tribulation.

Then, they continued to practice their sword techniques here.

Every move and stance began to be executed within this sword-body space.

Gradually, the passage here began to stabilize.

After Ning Qi finished using all his moves.

The black mist in front of him suddenly formed into a person.

It was a phantom.

It looks different from the Sword Spirit we've encountered before.

Clearly, this is not Sword Spirit.

"Now that you're out, explain your intentions."

Why did you lure me here?

Ning Qi looked at the black mist before him and said in a deep voice.

Something unusual must be going on.

Since the Heavenly Tribulation had already been subdued, there must be another reason for this.

After saying that, Ning Qi turned his attention back to what was ahead.

He stared intently at the Black Shadow in front of him.

"Call!"

The next moment, the Black Shadow exhaled a breath of foul air.

Subsequently, a burly man gradually emerged.

However, it's obvious at a glance that this isn't a normal person.

It was merely an illusory Soul Body.

"Are you the owner of this place?"

Upon seeing him appear, Ning Qi couldn't help but ask.

The only beings that can appear here, besides the sword's owner, are the Sword Spirit of this place.

Unfortunately, Sword Spirit is long gone.

"Good."

A moment later, the Black Shadow responded to Ning Qi's words.

"So, what are you going to do?"

Ning Qi paused for a moment before continuing to ask.

He kept his eyes fixed on the black fog in front of him.

To prevent him from doing anything unpredictable later.

If he were to make a move, I'm afraid I wouldn't be a match for him here.

After all, this is his territory.

"Do what?"

The Black Shadow fell into deep thought after hearing Ning Qi's words.

A moment later, he even showed a pained expression.

"It seems it was nothing more than an obsession."

"It doesn't even qualify as Divine Soul."

By this time, Ning Qi finally realized what it was.

It turns out, it was just a lingering obsession of its former owner.

He couldn't say anything even if you asked him to.

"I'm not Divine Soul?"

The Black Shadow listened to his words and fell into deep thought, "Am I an obsession?"

Am I really obsessed?

He started muttering to himself incessantly.

His eyes were already empty.

This makes it even more hollow.

Ning Qi just stared at him, a serious expression on his face.

"Since it's an obsession, then it's easier to talk about."

After a moment, Ning Qi suddenly swooped down forward.

It unleashed a fierce aura.

Just as they were about to reach the Black Shadow figure...

That's when they stopped.

At the same time, a Sword Qi had already condensed in his palm.

"Whoosh!"

Then, he suddenly made a move, shooting towards the Black Shadow in front of him.

"Hmph, don't even think about it!"

The Black Shadow also noticed Ning Qi's attack.

He couldn't help but let out a cold smile.

They didn't take his attacks seriously at all.

However, something unexpected happened to him soon after.

In just a moment, Ning Qi's attack had already landed on him.

"Whoosh!"

Immediately afterwards, it sliced the Black Shadow in two.

How is that possible?

After the Black Shadow was slain, an expression of disbelief appeared on its face.

Clearly, he never expected that someone as powerful as himself couldn't even withstand a single move from a junior.

"I've already warned you, you're nothing but an afterimage now."

"The reason you have some ability is because of your unwavering determination."

"Perhaps your Sword Spirit hid you here and then left on its own."

Ning Qi began to analyze.

This matter itself is somewhat unusual.

Therefore, it's not surprising that people would make this connection.

"Good."

"However, you're wrong about one thing, because I dispelled the Sword Spirit here."

"Let them go out and find their destined ones."

At this moment, the Black Shadow finally spoke.

Gradually, clarity returned to those eyes.

Clearly, they've already developed some awareness.

However, it still looked blurry.

After all, he was nothing more than an obsession.

"I see. Then let me ask you something."

"Where does the true Inheritance?"

Now that I am your successor, I am naturally qualified to know.

Ning Qi looked at him, showing no sign of politeness.

After all, what he encountered was merely an obsession.

He wasn't even a remnant soul, and he couldn't sense his attitude.

"The Inheritance here?"

After hearing Ning Qi's words, the Black Shadow fell into deep thought once again.

Clearly, these things are no longer in his memory.

However, Ning Qi's reminder gave him renewed inspiration.

That's when I started to remember.

"Yes, it should be nearby."

"Think carefully about exactly where it is."

"There are just too many people here. If I don't go early, they'll probably take up all the space!"

Ning Qi nodded and said seriously, "Look closely, I am the one who possesses the Heavenly Profound Sword Art!"

As he spoke, he once again circulated the Sword Qi within his body.

He began to unleash the Heavenly Profound Sword Art in front of him.

In an instant, powerful fluctuations erupted from this place.

This was precisely because Ning Qi exerted all his sword skills, his purpose being to gain the approval of this obsession.
