Chapter 1341

Learning a Legendary-quality skill was not too difficult for Xiao Feng.

He focused on studying it all the way, and in less than two hours he had mastered the skill.

Coincidentally, while flying he passed through an area where 300‑level Nascent Soul wild monsters were active, and he directly drew his sword in the sky and gave it a try.

Buzz~

The Supreme True Immortal Spirit Treasure 【Po Yue】 Immortal Sword flew from his hand, turning into a black giant sword over a hundred meters long, projecting sharp sword qi at the monsters on the hilltop.

Seeing him suddenly act, everyone hurriedly braked and landed, thinking something had happened.

But when they looked down, there was nothing at all on the hilltop.

Um… nothing was left; everything had been sliced to bits, leaving only a bald patch of ground and a series of damage numbers slowly drifting upward.

"Uh… how much damage is that?"

"One, two, three… a seventeen‑digit number, over ten trillion?"

"Is that the Immortal's Wrath? When did it become so powerful?"

The damage numbers floating in the air were over 10,750 trillion.

Xiao Feng originally had 270% critical damage; after changing weapons it increased again to 390%.

After drawing his sword from the Slaying Calamity sheath and releasing the skill, he gained buffs such as 【Hidden Sword】, 【Sheath Slaying Calamity】, Sword Intent Enhancement, Killing Intent Deepening, and Conception Deepening; plus his ignore‑defense effect could already pierce through all defense attributes of 300‑level wild monsters, so his damage shot up to an unimaginable level!

Even the previous Secret Art Palm of Heaven and Earth, when used on small fry, was no more than this!

The multiple amplification effects of the Immortal Sword, sword sheath, and Sword Cultivator skill are indeed tremendously powerful.

No wonder Han Zichen and Shen Chuo's two guys could squeeze their output into the front ranks of world bosses; Sword Immortal is indeed one of the strongest damage‑dealing professions in humanity's civilized war zone!

"Just learned this skill, sorry to show off, let's keep moving." Xiao Feng had his fun and then continued onward.

That damage just now was actually only one‑fifth of the Immortal's Wrath; the first wave already wiped out the monsters.

If he used the same condition to release "Break Thousand Mountains," the effect would be… tsk!

The Immortal Sword returned to its sheath, and its overbearing aura hid itself.

Xue Ningzhen's gaze lingered on Xiao Feng and the Immortal Sword behind him for two seconds, then she nodded and said, "Let's go."

Continue leading the way forward.

Xue Ningzhen, Li Jinglan, Wu Huang… these top players of the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm all play swords.

But a seventeen‑digit damage value has never been seen before; I never expected to gain this perspective while on the road.

At this moment the vanguard squad on the road was very silent; earlier someone had occasionally chatted, but now nobody spoke, stunned by Xiao Feng's damage.

Even when he consumed the Primordial Era's Chaotic Ice River and Source Explosion Technique, his damage had never been this astonishing.

Who would have thought that after a few months out, having lost all the Primordial Era's buffs, he not only didn't weaken but became stronger by an unknown multiple.

Such a terrifying presence made these people wary, and they secretly decided not to provoke him.

After flying another ten or so minutes, the destination was finally reached.

Xue Ningzhen reduced speed and lowered altitude, descending toward a stretch of architectural ruins.

This building complex has long been abandoned; it looks like it used to be a cultivation sect, and from the details of the collapsed gates, walls, and statues one can see its former glory.

Xiao Feng opened the map and saw that the place was called "Six Sacred Sect Ruins," which matched his guess pretty closely.

"Six Sacred Sect… the Yi Hao Boss is Qisheng, and what are the later ones?" he thought to himself.

I dare not say more, but there is definitely a Sword Saint among them!

That's an old trope of cultivation novels!

"The others will need another hour to arrive; let's wait here for now." Xue Ningzhen said to Xiao Feng and the others.

The difference in flight speed became fully apparent at this moment.

Da Bai said in a tone of mixed feelings, "Ah, I hate waiting for people; if I'd known, I'd have left an hour later."

Xue Ningzhen was helpless, not knowing what to say.

Their teammate Ximen Gou Sheng sighed, "They should have set out an hour earlier."

Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows.

That remark sounded like it was taking his side?

Ximen Gou Sheng walked over, looking at the very elegant‑appearing but inelegant‑speaking Da Bai, and smiled, "Brother Xiao Feng, what quality is your mount? Have you taken a Mount Ascension Pill?"

Without waiting for Xiao Feng's reply, Da Bai said itself, "I am an eighth‑level spirit beast, a Primordial Era divine bird, the Chaotic Lingxiao Black Crane! Without exaggeration, I am the noblest flying bloodline in the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm; if you want to cling to my thigh, please book in advance, because I'm busy!"

"Eighth level? If you ate another Mount Ascension Pill, wouldn't you become a ninth‑level Primordial Ancestor?" Ximen Gou Sheng exclaimed in surprise.

Xiao Feng shook his head, "Mount Ascension Pills cannot be traded, and I can't get a second one."

Da Bai also said, "A ninth‑level Primordial Ancestor bloodline isn't that easy to achieve; even eating another pill wouldn't do it—I think I'd need at least three!"

This statement even surprised Xiao Feng; he had never heard Da Bai say that before.

Da Bai explained, "After advancing to eighth level, I feel the path forward for my bloodline is completely blank, as if there's no way to go on. If I were a Qinglian Xianzi, continued growth would likely make me a Primordial Ancestor Phoenix bloodline. If I were a great peng, I might evolve into a Primordial Ancestor Kun‑peng. But… I'm a crane, heh…"

That tone was quite helpless.

Among ninth‑level flying spirit beasts there is no crane type, so Da Bai's evolutionary path is cut off—it has reached its endpoint.

If it continues forward, the only option is to blaze its own trail.

Otherwise, with its bloodline it could neither become a phoenix‑kun nor a golden crow‑vermilion bird, having nowhere to rely on or imitate.

Xiao Feng patted Da Bai's neck and comforted, "It's not a big problem; anyway you've just reached Nascent Soul stage, it's still early. When you become a Golden Immortal someday, you can worry about this then."

"That's right; anyway this sort of thing is mainly the elder brother's worry, I just need to stay quiet and be a mount!" Da Bai gave a hehe laugh and returned to his cheeky self.

Hearing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help recalling when he first subdued Da Bai, that stupid bird's refusal to yield even unto death.

All I can say is… the contrast is really huge!

"Where is the dungeon entrance?"

Xiao Feng dismounted, let Da Bai fly off to stroll, and then he and Xue Ningzhen and the others began to talk.

Ximen Gou Sheng pointed at the intact Hanbaiyu mountain gate ahead and said, "Just enter from anywhere; going in will take you to another world, where you'll meet the beings that once existed in this sect."

"Another bunch of people who once existed… Surely they're not copying the idea from the Sword Tomb?" Xiao Feng complained.

He jumped onto a nearby stone, sat down, and began eating melon seeds: "Tell me what you know about the instance; we'll go in and fight straight away, saves trouble."

"Okay, I'll introduce it." Ximen Gou Sheng knew Xue Ningzhen didn't like to talk much, so he voluntarily took on the role of commentator.

The instance information they knew wasn't much either; Xiao Feng had only eaten a small handful of melon seeds when he finished explaining.

Before, they hadn't even defeated the first boss, only killing the few waves of minor enemies ahead.

Yi Hao Boss is Qisheng; the battle doesn't require using skills, just need to play a game of 'Immortal Tribulation Chess' with him.

But winning at this kind of chess is no small challenge!
