367: Chapter 377 The Sword Soul Recognizes Its Master! A Heroic Breakthrough of the Heavenly Curse!

Su Feng was stunned for a full three seconds; he had never expected this.

"This Heavenly Emperor... is he really that great?"

Su Feng expressed serious doubt.

"Your Excellency, I have a suggestion that I hope you will consider."

Seeing Su Feng fall into a strange contemplation, the Sword Soul judged the timing to be right and spoke in a solemn tone.

"Let's hear it."

Su Feng checked the countdown on the System interface; there was less than an incense stick's worth of time left before "Ancestors Descent" ended.

"I wish to enter your inner world."

The Sword Soul stated its ultimate goal directly and offered a bargaining chip: "Please rest assured, I will not occupy your space in vain. I can serve as the Spirit of Rules to accelerate the perfection of the Sword Dao and the laws of heaven and earth in your world."

Su Feng pondered in silence.

Previously in the Life Star Domain, when the Tree of Life learned that he had Cultivated an inner world just like the Heavenly Emperor's, it had entrusted him with the Seed of Life without hesitation.

Now, the sword spirit of the Heavenly Emperor Sword had actually made the same request.

"I need to know the reason." Su Feng stared into the Sword Soul's eyes.

The Sword Soul did not hide anything and said immediately, "To prevent the Heavenly Emperor Sword from falling into the hands of the Realm Demons."

"You don't have faith in the Great Thousand Star Domain either?" Su Feng instantly understood what the Sword Soul was trying to express.

Obviously, as two parts of the former Heavenly Emperor's remains, both the Tree of Life and the Sword Soul were extremely pessimistic about this war between the two realms.

"It is not a matter of having no faith, but rather that there is simply no chance of victory."

The Sword Soul sighed, "If the Heavenly Emperor had survived to this day, the Realm Demons certainly would not have been able to invade the Great Thousand Star Domain. But now that the Heavenly Emperor is dead, even the body that transformed into this Great Thousand Star Domain has already been half-occupied by the demons! They have already extracted too much nourishment from it, and the complete annexation of the Great Thousand Star Domain is only a matter of time."

"And the best way to break the deadlock now is to accelerate the evolution and formation of your inner world, and race against time with the Realm Demons!"

After listening to the Sword Soul, Su Feng sighed deeply.

Originally, these were just some conjectures, but now it seemed that the situation was even worse than he had imagined.

"Fine, I agree."

Su Feng nodded decisively. He was not worried that the Sword Soul would have any malicious intentions after entering his inner world.

In his world, he, Su Feng, was the supreme Creator God.

The corpse of the Heavenly Emperor that formed the Great Thousand Star Domain was now covered in the pustules of the Realm Demons. He had to build his own path of retreat as soon as possible.

After receiving Su Feng's consent, the Sword Soul did not waste any time and immediately formed an ancient sword seal with both hands.

As a myth-level sword spirit capable of materialization, its power far exceeded the imagination of ordinary Emperors.

"Hum—!"

The entire vast and boundless Sword God Domain space began to shrink and collapse violently!

The sky full of Chaos Sword Qi surged backward rapidly, eventually condensing in the Sword Soul's palm into a small golden sword, only the size of a palm, yet emitting a dazzling golden light.

This was the core Origin of the former Heavenly Emperor Sword!

Su Feng waved his hand to open the passage to his inner world and unceremoniously took the small golden sword inside.

At the same time, the countdown for Ancestors Descent officially reached zero.

...

Life Star Domain.

Accompanied by a ripple in space, Su Feng's true body returned once again to the Elf Sanctuary where Empress Luyin was in seclusion.

At this moment, Empress Luyin was still in seclusion.

Su Feng thought for a moment and changed his original plan to forcibly interrupt her Cultivation.

He was not in a hurry to return to the Wanxiang Star Domain, but instead chose to stay in a quiet wooden house near the Tree of Life.

"Finally, I can have a few days of peace and quiet."

Su Feng sat on the wooden bed, rubbed his lower back, and thought of Jiuyou in the Wanxiang Star Domain, unable to help but grit his teeth: "Heaven knows how I spent these past three years!"

That workaholic Jiuyou had completely broken her word!

She had once sworn that it would be "only this one time," but after getting a taste of it, she completely treated Su Feng as the fastest human-shaped shortcut for Cultivation!

Although Jiuyou was stunningly beautiful, even an Emperor couldn't handle being drained for three whole years without rest!

Later, in order to escape, Su Feng deliberately slowed down the pace... but he still couldn't escape his fate...

Su Feng shook his head hard, temporarily casting those three years of memory of constant pounding out of his mind.

Then, with a thought, he released Deduction Saint Han Ying from his inner world.

"Whoosh."

Deduction Saint Han Ying's figure appeared in the wooden house. She looked around vigilantly, discovering that she was in a completely unfamiliar environment. Instinctively, she pinched her fingers to perform a divination, and a flash of surprise crossed her eyes:

"This is... the Life Star Domain?"

"Correct."

Su Feng sat on the wooden bed, quietly waiting for Deduction Saint Han Ying to familiarize herself with the environment.

Although he had to get the job done today for the System reward regardless of whether Deduction Saint Han Ying was willing or not, Su Feng hoped that she would cooperate willingly rather than being forced.

"Deduction Saint Han Ying, take a look at this first."

Su Feng's expression suddenly became solemn. He flicked his fingertip, and a stream of light shot into mid-air.

Looking at Su Feng's serious expression, Deduction Saint Han Ying felt a jolt in her heart; had some accident occurred in the Sword Domain during this short time?

Subsequently, Su Feng played the recording of his conversation with the Sword Soul in the Sword God Domain for Deduction Saint Han Ying to see exactly as it happened.

When she heard that even the Sword Soul had personally admitted that "the Great Thousand Star Domain has no chance of winning, and annexation is just a matter of time."

Deduction Saint Han Ying stood there blankly, her heart filled with bitterness.

"The Star Domain... is there really no hope left?" Deduction Saint Han Ying murmured to herself, her eyes dim.

Although she possessed the Divine Ability of divination, she was powerless to calculate the Heavenly Dao trends of the level of the Great Thousand Star Domain, nor could she figure it out.

"I don't know if we can win in the end, but I and my people have been working hard."

Su Feng looked at her, his tone sincere.

Deduction Saint Han Ying bit her full, red lips, raised her head, and looked at Su Feng, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, with a complex gaze.

As a Deduction Saint, she naturally knew how to break the "heavenly severed curse."

However, when this moment truly arrived, facing this man she was meeting for the first time, it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.

Seemingly noticing Deduction Saint Han Ying's concerns and nervousness, Su Feng took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence.

"Deduction Saint Han Ying, helping you break the heavenly severed curse gives you a chance to use this to Breakthrough to the Emperor realm, strengthening our Star Domain with a top-tier combat force. This concerns the common people of the world, which is why I brought you away."

Su Feng stood up, walked in front of her, and gave his assurance with a frank gaze:

"I also promise you. After the heavenly severed curse is broken, if you are unwilling, I, Su Feng, will never touch a single finger of yours in the future."

Hearing these righteous words, a trace of inexplicable emotion surged in Deduction Saint Han Ying's heart.

With Su Feng's terrifying strength capable of instantly killing a Sword Emperor, he could have clearly forced her directly, without needing to waste words explaining all this to her.

But he still chose to respect her, patiently explaining the "greater cause" behind it.

Deduction Saint Han Ying closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

When she opened them again, there was a hint of the resolve belonging to a Saint in those mature and charming eyes.

"Since it is for the sake of the common people... then, I will trouble you, Fellow Daoist Su."
