381: Dragon Blade and Black Magic Orb

"Little… You Ruo, how did you do that?"

Mu Feng had originally intended to say "Little Lizard," but then remembered that it had already named itself You Ruo.

Mu Feng immediately corrected himself to You Ruo and inquired about the inexplicable scene unfolding before him.

He remembered that the Ancient Demon was still in the upper hand just a moment ago.

Suddenly, it was split into pieces by his own Demon Dragon Blade.

Hearing Mu Feng's question, Little Lizard said proudly, "Naturally, it's because of You Ruo's Mental Power skill!"

"Master, have you forgotten? You Ruo's Mental Power skill can control the opponent's actions for a short period."

"Mental Power?!" Mu Feng was stunned; he naturally knew this skill.

This was a new skill he learned after activating the Berserk skill for the first time on several occasions, and absorbing the Blood Python Jiao's innate single horn upon killing it.

However, this skill required powerful Mental Energy to control the enemy's actions.

Little Lizard was merely a Puppet; its Mental Energy was naturally weaker than that of normal Yao Beasts of the same Rank.

It was too difficult to control those of the same Rank.

Especially after Foundation Establishment and Core Formation, they faced enemies several Ranks stronger than themselves.

Therefore, this move became useless.

Even after it was upgraded once later, it was still somewhat of a chicken rib.

It couldn't be used against those weaker than itself, and against those stronger, the Mental Power control skill was ineffective.

Over time, Mu Feng almost forgot about this skill.

He didn't expect Little Lizard to use it today with such miraculous effect.

However, he remembered that this Ancient Demon's Divine Sense seemed to be good, able to detect him from a great distance.

Since Little Lizard could control the opponent's actions, did that mean its Mental Energy had risen by several Ranks again?

"Could it be that after advancing to Nascent Soul, Little Lizard not only developed self-awareness but also greatly enhanced its Mental Energy?"

"If that's true, then it's going to be interesting!"

He thought to himself.

Mu Feng's eyes brightened as he looked at Little Lizard.

"That's right, Little Lizard said it just used a small trick. It can even use schemes now, which suggests that the emergence of self-awareness has indeed greatly enhanced its Mental Energy."

After some speculation.

Mu Feng also vaguely understood the reason for Little Lizard's enormous Divine Soul Transformation.

"How is it, You Ruo? Am I amazing, Master?"

Little Lizard's voice was not only childish, but its psychological age also seemed young.

After helping Mu Feng deal with the formidable enemy before him, it couldn't wait to receive Mu Feng's praise.

This was the second time it had asked Mu Feng.

Its thoughts were self-evident.

"Haha, amazing, amazing, our Little You Ruo is the most amazing."

Mu Feng reached out to pat its head, but found that the helmet on Little Lizard's new form was a bit prickly.

Fortunately, his reaction was quick; if he couldn't touch the helmet, he could still touch its pair of horn-like projections.

The horns felt very smooth, just like real hair.

This made Mu Feng exclaim in wonder.

At the same time, he secretly wondered if this was what Little Lizard would look like after transforming into a human form.

Uh, it looks like a girl.

No way...

To be honest, Mu Feng had always thought it was male, as its initial form was incredibly dull, lacking any feminine cleverness.

He didn't expect that after all this, it turned out to be a girl?

Mu Feng felt a bit dizzy.

This feeling was too far from his expectations; he had always treated it like livestock before.

Forget it, forget it, isn't it still wearing a helmet?

Who says a man can't have a topknot, right?

Shaking his head.

Mu Feng shook off some thoughts in his mind and turned to look at the Ancient Demon's dismembered body and the even larger demonic body not far away.

The demonic body exerted immense pressure on Mu Feng; he didn't know what Rank it was in its lifetime, and even though only a body remained, it still made Mu Feng feel breathless.

Was it Soul Transformation? Or something even more powerful than Soul Transformation?

The latter seemed highly probable, although Mu Feng had never actually seen a Soul Transformation Cultivator.

However, this Ancient Demon was in the Early Stage Nascent Soul, but its body was so different from that demonic body.

Although the strength might not be strongly correlated with height.

But no matter how he looked at it, this Ancient Demonic Body exerted much stronger pressure than the Ancient Demon.

【You are in luck. That is an Ancient Demon Race body from the Demon Realm. If you can refine it into a Corpse Puppet for your own use, your strength will surely skyrocket.】

【However, you might have to wait until you become a Late Stage Nascent Soul Grand Cultivator before you can successfully refine it.】

【Of course, there is another use for it, which is to decompose it into energy essence to strengthen your Physical Body's toughness. Moreover, the Heavenly Martial Body Tempering Art you are currently Cultivating is actually somewhat similar to the Demonic Race's Nirvana Saint Demonic Technique. Perhaps one of the Materials needed for your Physical Body to advance to Nascent Soul or Soul Transformation is it, who knows.】

Just as Mu Feng was observing the demonic body in the distance, several red prompts appeared before his eyes.

After reading them, Mu Feng's eyes lit up: "I didn't expect that demonic body to have such uses!"

"Hmm, no rush. That demonic body seems to be sealed by something. Let's first collect the Ancient Demon's treasures."

After glancing at the Seal Formation around the demonic body, Mu Feng shifted his gaze to the Ancient Demon he had just killed.

He took a few strides to its side, then squatted down and picked up all its items.

【System Notification: Demon Dragon Blade x1】

【System Notification: Black Demon Pearl x1】

There weren't many items on the Ancient Demon; Mu Feng's search only yielded these two.

As for the Materials on its body, not a single one dropped.

This made Mu Feng a bit depressed.

He had thought it would drop some good things, like when he killed that Yaksha earlier, and it dropped Yaksha essence.

"Sigh, what a pity for such a powerful figure; not a single good item dropped from him. He's truly a miser!"

"Forget it, let's look at those two items first. I hope they don't disappoint me."

He sighed.

Mu Feng turned to look at the two Demon Treasures in his hand.

【Name: Demon Dragon Blade (Imitation)】

【Rank: Imitation Ancient Demon Treasure (equivalent to an Imitation heavenly spiritual treasure)】

【Effect: A Demonic Race exotic treasure. When attacking, it can absorb the enemy's Cultivation to enhance the Demon Dragon Blade's power. The more Cultivation absorbed, the greater the Demon Dragon Blade's power.】

【Imitation: Because it is an Imitation Demon Treasure, the Demon Dragon Blade's Cultivation increase is not permanent, but only lasts for a period of time. However, the advantage is that because it is an Imitation Demon Treasure, using it in combat does not require sacrificing one's own strength.】

....

【Name: Black Demon Pearl】

【Rank: Ancient Demon Treasure】

【Effect: A functional Ancient Demon Treasure, combining trapping and defense. Its power is equivalent to a Cultivator's ordinary Spirit Treasure level.】

....

The two items dropped by this Ancient Demon were both good things.

Both the Demon Dragon Blade and the Black Demon Pearl were very powerful Ancient Demon Treasures.

Especially the Demon Dragon Blade, it was an Ancient Demon Treasure that could grow.

And because it was an imitation, Mu Feng could directly use it without worrying about it consuming Qi and blood, unlike the Blood Magic Robe he obtained earlier.

The drawback was that the Demon Dragon Blade's absorption of Cultivation for enhancement was not permanent, but a temporary boost.

"Seems pretty good!"

After reading the information on these two Demon Treasures, Mu Feng was somewhat moved.

Mu Feng had witnessed the power of the Demon Dragon Blade.

The Sword Qi it emitted alone was very strong.

Finally, it was even able to cleave the Ancient Demon into pieces in front of a defensive treasure at the Spirit Treasure level, showing its impressive power.

He just didn't know if that power was only achieved after absorbing many Nascent Soul Old Monsters.

【System Notification: Do you want to refine the Demon Dragon Blade?】

"Refine!"

This Demon Dragon Blade was equivalent to an Imitation heavenly spiritual treasure, even stronger than the Imitation Spirit Treasure in his hand.

Moreover, it was a rather special kind.

It could absorb others' Cultivation and then become stronger.

Fighting to sustain the fight.

After reading the attributes of the Demon Dragon Blade, Mu Feng also vaguely understood why this Devil Head had initially killed so many players.

It was most likely to maximize the power of the Demon Dragon Blade.

【System Notification: Demon Dragon Blade successfully refined!】

Although it was called an Imitation Ancient Demon Treasure, the refining process was no different from an ordinary Magic Treasure.

Mu Feng successfully refined it in a short while.

He immediately checked the attributes of the Demon Dragon Blade.

【Name: Demon Dragon Blade (Imitation)】

【Rank: Imitation Ancient Demon Treasure】

【Effect: Demonic Path supreme treasure. Can absorb enemy Cultivation and convert it into the Demon Treasure's power!】

【Additional: Demonic Seed (50/100) (The more Cultivation devoured, the greater the power, with a peak value of 100. Each devoured Cultivation can be preserved for a maximum of 24 hours. Each use consumes a Demonic Seed. If the enemy's Cultivation cannot be killed and absorbed, the Demon Dragon Blade's power will drop to its lowest value when the Demonic Seeds are used up.)】

【Durability: 155000 / 155000.】

....

"This Demon Dragon Blade is truly interesting. I wonder if it can only absorb players' Cultivation or if Yao Beasts or Immortal Cave creatures also work."

"If it's only the former, then it's a bit of a chicken rib."

"Hmm, I can try it when I get a chance."

After refining, the Demon Dragon Blade's attribute information became clearer.

It could be seen that the size of the Demon Dragon Blade was related to the number of Demonic Seeds it absorbed.

However, Mu Feng was not a bloodthirsty person.

If its power could only be increased by killing people, then Mu Feng probably wouldn't constantly use it to maintain its maximum power.

After all, it would go against heaven's will.

Unless someone provoked him, like just now.

Anyway, Mu Feng still quite liked this Demon Dragon Blade, and it should be able to maintain its strength by slaying Yao Beasts.

Of course, whether it would work, he would only know after experimenting.

After playing with it for a while longer, Mu Feng put the Demon Dragon Blade into his Storage Ring.

Originally, he wanted to check the other Ancient Demon Treasure in his hand, the Black Demon Pearl.

But he found that the Black Demon Pearl actually required pure Devilish Qi to control.

He had no way to use it at all.

Uh, well, that's fine.

Although he was a bit regretful that he couldn't use this Black Demon Pearl.

However, Mu Feng wasn't here for this Devil Head in the first place.

Besides, one Demon Dragon Blade was enough for him to tinker with.

If he had another Black Demon Pearl, he might truly not be able to handle it.

After surveying again and finding no omissions.

Mu Feng left the Ancient Demon's remains and turned to look at the massive demonic body.

From the System, he already knew the function of this demonic body.

So he wouldn't let this body go.

However, breaking the Formation didn't seem simple either.

Sigh, if only he had known to let that Devil Head help him break the Formation first before attacking it.

Mu Feng felt a bit regretful.

But it was just a hindsight thought.

After all, in that situation, he naturally wouldn't let that Devil Head unseal this seemingly more powerful demonic body.

"Hmm, let's first examine this Seal Formation."

Since he wanted to break the Seal, he naturally had to first see what kind of Formation it was.

He thought to himself.

Mu Feng focused his attention and began to investigate the Formation before him.

Soon, its information entered Mu Feng's sight.

【Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation: An Ancient Demon-expelling Formation composed of three heavenly spiritual treasures. However, due to the erosion of time, two of the three Spirit Treasures have been destroyed due to insufficient spiritual power. Currently, only one heavenly spiritual treasure remains.】

"Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation? An Ancient Demon-subduing Formation composed of three heavenly spiritual treasures!"

"Holy crap!"

After reading the Formation's description, Mu Feng's mouth hung wide open.

He knew this demonic body was powerful, but he didn't expect it would require three heavenly spiritual treasures to suppress it.

And it even exhausted the spiritual power of two of them.

It seemed this demonic body was indeed extraordinary in its lifetime.

"If I can break this Magic Formation, wouldn't I be able to take both this massive demonic body and the heavenly spiritual treasure?"

The more Mu Feng thought about it, the more excited he became.

However, how to break this Magic Formation was a big problem.

This was a Magic Formation laid out with Heavenly Spiritual Treasures; the method to break it must be very difficult.

Moreover, this Formation was also not recorded in the "Array Secrets."

【Actually, you can totally try using that mysterious heaven stone tablet again. Since it was able to lead you here and break the outer Formation, it indicates that it is also the key tool to unlock this Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation.】

As if sensing Mu Feng's thoughts.

The red prompt appeared again.

"That's true!"

Mu Feng felt that the System was right.

He immediately took out the mysterious heaven stone tablet he had put away.

As soon as the stone tablet appeared.

The patterns on it lit up.

Along with it, the already incomplete Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation also lit up.

"Ah, Om, Mi, Mǐ..."

As the light grew stronger, Sanskrit Buddhist chants began to emanate from the Formation, and a large number of silver lotus flowers began to appear around the Formation.

Upon closer inspection, various strange beasts were carved on those lotus flowers.

These strange beasts varied in size and had majestic expressions.

All of them were creatures Mu Feng had never seen before.

Mu Feng was watching with great interest when suddenly all the light and lotus flowers transformed, turning into a cyan ruler with eight Spirit Beasts drawn on it.

From its appearance, it seemed to be the last remaining Spirit Treasure used to arrange this Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation!

"This is a heavenly spiritual treasure?"

"As expected, it's extraordinary!"

Mu Feng looked at the cyan ruler within the demon-subduing Magic Formation, his heart filled with incomparable excitement.

The thought of having a chance to break this Magic Formation and take the heavenly spiritual treasure and that demonic body inside made him incredibly happy.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Just as Mu Feng was thinking about whether to use the mysterious heaven stone tablet to insert into the Magic Formation, similar to how he broke the outer Celestial Wind Mysterious Wave Formation earlier.

The Three Spirits Subduing Demon Formation before him suddenly began to shake violently.
