Chapter 163: Demon Blade vs. Demon Blade

As Daohuang's aura grew increasingly intense and the Demon Energy around Duan Fengyun continued to swell, a voice that had not sounded in Duan Fengyun's mind for a long time spoke up.

"Duan Fengyun, can you hand this old fellow over to me?

I guarantee that after devouring him, your cultivation will also advance by a large margin."

Duan Fengyun suddenly gave a wicked smile and then muttered to himself:

"Oh my, isn't this the Demon Blade that I have suppressed for so long?

Why have you come out?

What, seeing a little brother on the other side, are your hands itching?"

Duan Fengyun had not expected that the consciousness of the Demon Blade, which he had suppressed for so long, would actually revive again.

It seemed that after Daohuang fell into the Demonic Path, the influence of belonging to the same Demon Blade school had caused the long-suppressed Demon Blade consciousness to revive.

Duan Fengyun now began to harbor suspicions about the Demon Blade, because the Demon Blade was too eerie—so eerie that he began to disbelieve that the Demon Blade was created by Xiehuang.

Duan Fengyun prepared to have a chat with Xiehuang after this matter with Daohuang was finished; he wanted to know the ins and outs of the Demon Blade.

Upon hearing Duan Fengyun's words, the Demon Blade consciousness continued to say fawningly:

"Rest assured, devouring the True Qi of the person opposite you will be of nothing but benefit to you.

Furthermore, after devouring that person's True Qi, he will return to normal.

This is killing two birds with one stone; aren't you tempted?"

To tell the truth, Duan Fengyun was indeed tempted, but in his heart, he did not believe what the Demon Blade consciousness said.

Duan Fengyun's thoughts were correct; the Demon Blade consciousness was indeed deceiving him.

Once the Demon Blade consciousness finished devouring Daohuang's True Qi, Daohuang would wither away and die.

However, if it had told Duan Fengyun the truth, Duan Fengyun certainly would not have let it devour him, so it chose to deceive.

And after devouring Daohuang, Duan Fengyun would indeed gain great benefits, as he would obtain Daohuang's several decades of cultivation.

But the greatest beneficiary would certainly be the Demon Blade consciousness itself; after absorbing Daohuang's Demon Blade, it would possess two portions of Demon Blade consciousness, and one day it would break through its shackles and descend into the world once more.

Without waiting for Duan Fengyun to consider, Daohuang, angry to the extreme, unleashed the ninth form of the Demon Blade, which was also the most terrifying form of the Demon Blade—the Blood Blade Demonic Art.

Daohuang continuously raised his own demonic power, slashed his palm, and his blood-dripping palm transformed into a blood blade.

Seeing this, the Demon Blade consciousness knew that if it did not persuade Duan Fengyun further, Daohuang would surely be dragged to death by the current Duan Fengyun.

"Duan Fengyun, if you don't let me devour Daohuang, his demonic power will become increasingly intense, and by then, even if you pierce his Demonic Essence, it will be useless."

Duan Fengyun knew the power of the Blood Blade Demonic Art; back then, Xiehuang had also repeatedly warned him not to use this move unless in a critical situation.

At present, it seemed there was really no choice but to trust the Demon Blade consciousness, so Duan Fengyun prepared to let the Demon Blade consciousness try it out for now.

If there were any problems, he would immediately suppress it again.

He closed his eyes, immersed his mind, and then released the restraint on the Demonic Path consciousness in his mind.

"Come on, let me see if you have made any progress after being silent for so many years."

Duan Fengyun released the Demon Blade consciousness and gave it control over his own body.

"Hahahaha, I have finally come out again."

The Demon Blade consciousness let out a cackling laugh. Having regained control of Duan Fengyun's body, it could not help but sigh inwardly: how long had it been, and Duan Fengyun's body had actually improved so much.

It was worthy of being the host I chose.

After transforming into Demon Person Duan Fengyun again, the aura of Demon Person Duan Fengyun also rose continuously.

Compared to Daohuang's pale eyeballs, Demon Person Duan Fengyun's were an eerie red.

Looking at the eerie Duan Fengyun, whose Demon Energy was soaring to the heavens, Nie Feng shouted:

"Oh no, why has Junior Brother Duan used the Demon Blade again?

And looking at his appearance, it seems he has fallen into the Demonic Path again."

Without Nie Feng needing to mention it, the others had also discovered this problem.

After receiving instructions from Duan Fengyun, Demon Person Duan Fengyun told the others:

"Rest assured, I am just using the Demon Blade; I have not fallen into the Demonic Path."

And Daohuang, whose Demon Energy had been rising, saw Duan Fengyun, who also had heaven-soaring Demon Energy, and suddenly stopped circulating his Qi.

Because he felt that something in the Duan Fengyun before him was attracting him; he had a feeling of wanting to devour Duan Fengyun.

Correct, the Demon Blade consciousness wanted to devour Daohuang, and the demonized Daohuang likewise wanted to devour the Demon Blade consciousness.

The two, coming from the same lineage, actually let out identical cackling laughs.

Demon Person Duan Fengyun threw away the Yellow Emperor Sword in his hand; to this day, he still held a grudge against this sword.

If it hadn't been for this sword back then, he would have already slaughtered the world using Duan Fengyun's body.

Now that he had the chance to humiliate this sword, how could he let it pass?

"I advise you to do what you are supposed to do, otherwise I will immediately suppress you back."

Duan Fengyun's voice rang in the Demon Blade consciousness's ears; Duan Fengyun's mind was currently entirely focused on the Dragon Vein.

The Demon Blade consciousness did not dare to get close to Duan Fengyun at all.

"Fine, fine, fine, I will immediately help

you deal with this fellow opposite."

He likewise slashed his own palm and then transformed his palm into a blood blade.

Immediately, the two blood blades collided in mid-air.

Although both were the strongest and most terrifying form of the Demon Blade, it was clear that Daohuang, who was a beginner at the Demon Blade, was no match for Demon Person Duan Fengyun.

One could see the blood blade formed by Daohuang's palm constantly shrinking, while Demon Person Duan Fengyun's blood blade was constantly growing.

The Demon Blade consciousness has already begun its devouring plan; it wants to take advantage of Daohuang being off-guard to slowly devour all of his Demon Energy.

Daohuang was unconvinced, and with a forceful slash to his wrist, blood splattered everywhere.

He made a series of gestures toward the blood filling the sky, and immediately, a blood-colored great blade with an aura even more imposing and a color even more sinister than before appeared before everyone's eyes.

Xiehuang watched this scene and shook his head, saying:

"Blood Blade Demonic Art, harming oneself and harming others.

Not reaching the goal, never stopping.

If Daohuang cannot defeat Duan Fengyun today, he will likely die from blood loss."

He then roared at Duan Fengyun:

"Disciple, quickly find a way to break his Demonic Essence.

If this continues, he will keep using his own blood as a blood blade, and he will bleed to death."

Duan Fengyun, inside the Dragon Vein, heard Xiehuang's cry and said to the Demon Blade consciousness:

"You heard what my master said, right? Stop playing around and quickly find a way to finish him off.

If you perform well this time, I will let you out to get some air again next time.

But if you disappoint me this time, don't even think about coming out again in the future."

Demon Person Duan Fengyun shouted out loud:

"Fine."

This "fine" was a response to Xiehuang, and also an answer to Duan Fengyun.

Facing Daohuang's massive, sinister blood blade, he did not choose to follow suit.

"Feng, lend me the Snow Drink Blade to use."

He shouted at Nie Feng.

Upon hearing this, Nie Feng didn't even think and threw the Snow Drink Blade directly to Duan Fengyun.

Demon Person Duan Fengyun caught the Snow Drink Blade and shouted in his heart:

"As expected, using a blade is truly satisfying."

Meanwhile, Duan Fengyun inside the Dragon Vein, seeing himself holding the Snow Drink Blade through the nearby Yellow Emperor Sword, couldn't help but shout: "My youth is back."

Because his build was similar to Nie Feng's, holding the Snow Drink Blade with scarlet eyes, how was this any different from the demonized Nie Feng in the original drama?

Thus, this gave Duan Fengyun a direct wave of nostalgic memories.
