Chapter 419: Bloodstained Divine Light

At this moment, the Ebony Sword had completely devoured the Boundless Blood Mulberry, becoming one with it and transforming into a low-grade magic treasure!

The emerald-green sword body exuded an aura of extreme sharpness, and the sword intent radiating from its blade was almost tangible, as if it could tear through space. Qin Sang cast an affectionate glance at the Ebony Sword, then his eyes sharpened as he stared at the crimson escape light, and softly uttered a single word: "Go!"

In an instant, the Ebony Sword vanished before Qin Sang. The next moment, a colossal thunderous roar echoed across the sky. The thunder reverberated throughout the surroundings, possessing an earth-shattering power that startled spirits and shook the hearts of men. Hearing the thunder, the silver-robed man, who was fleeing, was startled. A sense of impending doom suddenly rose within him. He quickly looked back, only to see an incredibly dazzling sword light, moving at an astonishing speed, like a meteor chasing the moon, shooting towards him. Such a long distance, yet it arrived in an instant, now almost upon him. The sharp edge of the flying sword, carrying an unparalleled might, caused the silver-robed man to turn pale with shock. The earth-shattering roar of thunder was precisely caused by this sword light. Witnessing this scene, the silver-robed man suddenly recalled a legendary sword dao realm—Sword Qi Thunder Sound!

The sword struck like lightning, fleeting like a startled swan. Legend has it that even Golden Core cultivators, few could comprehend this sword dao realm. Only sword fanatics, those blessed by heaven, or individuals with talent far surpassing ordinary people, had the chance to master it.

Qin Sang naturally didn't possess such talent. He needed to seize every moment to cultivate and couldn't immerse himself in the sword dao, becoming a sword fanatic, pondering sword intent day and night. Sword Qi Thunder Sound was the second divine ability granted to Qin Sang by the "Primordial Spirit Sword Cultivation Chapter." Upon breaking through to the second layer of the cultivation method, he gained the divine abilities of 'Man-Sword Union' and 'Shadowless Escape,' which had helped Qin Sang resolve crises multiple times. A few years ago, after breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage and cultivating to the fourth layer, Qin Sang learned the Sword Qi Thunder Sound divine ability.

After learning this divine ability, Qin Sang went into seclusion for a period, carefully comprehending it, and discovered that Sword Qi Thunder Sound truly lived up to its reputation, being incredibly powerful. The most terrifying aspect of Sword Qi Thunder Sound was its astonishing speed. Coupled with the Ebony Sword's magic treasure grade, cultivators of the same realm, if they were overconfident and stood too close to him, would have no time to react and would be effortlessly pierced through their spiritual power and physical body by the Ebony Sword. After understanding Sword Qi Thunder Sound, Qin Sang didn't hesitate to temporarily halt his cultivation and secluded himself for an entire year to master the application of this divine ability. This was a powerful divine ability that could even influence battles when Golden Core cultivators fought. Thanks to the "Primordial Spirit Sword Cultivation Chapter," Qin Sang mastered it while still in the Foundation Establishment stage. With just Sword Qi Thunder Sound, he could easily overpower cultivators of the same realm.

If not for the terrifying side effects of the "Primordial Spirit Sword Cultivation Chapter," which made it impossible for ordinary people to successfully cultivate it, all disciples of Shaohua Mountain would undoubtedly choose this cultivation method! After breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage and inscribing the fourth 'Kill Rune' onto the Ebony Sword, Qin Sang gained a deeper understanding of the "Primordial Spirit Sword Cultivation Chapter." The spiritual sword resided within his primordial spirit, and the sword intent and killing intent emanating from the four 'Kill Runes' and the spiritual sword itself constantly assailed his primordial spirit. Without the Jade Buddha's protection, Qin Sang would have long since gone mad. Precisely because of this, Qin Sang admired Senior Qingzhu even more. How much willpower did Senior Qingzhu possess to withstand the impact of sword intent and 'Kill Runes' with a fragile primordial spirit while cultivating! And even set a Shaohua Mountain record, forming a Golden Core in forty years.

If Sword Qi Thunder Sound was already this powerful, how terrifying would the fifth layer's divine ability, 'Sword Light Diversification,' be? Thinking of this, Qin Sang's anticipation for forming a Golden Core grew even stronger, becoming more urgent. It was only because the silver-robed man had fled first, and the distance between them was too great; otherwise, this person would already be a soul under his sword.

"Sword Qi Thunder Sound!" "It actually was Sword Qi Thunder Sound!" The silver-robed man was greatly alarmed. He could never have imagined that the opponent he encountered would be a prodigy who had comprehended Sword Qi Thunder Sound in the Foundation Establishment stage. Throughout the cultivation world of the Minor Cold Domain, according to ancient legends, there were very few individuals who comprehended Sword Qi Thunder Sound at the Foundation Establishment stage; every single one of them was a renowned figure, leaving behind a legendary tale.

By this time, after the Ebony Sword had traveled such a long distance, its momentum showed signs of being at its limit, but the sword light remained dazzling, bringing with it the aura of death. In his panic, the silver-robed man hastily threw out all the talismans from his Mustard Seed Bag, and at the same time, summoned a flower basket. For a moment, various spells were unleashed simultaneously, filling the air with colorful lights, a truly beautiful sight. However, against the Ebony Sword, these spells offered almost no resistance and were easily shattered by the Ebony Sword as if they were dry leaves.

"Another magic treasure!" The silver-robed man's eyes were wide with disbelief. He felt like he was going mad. His master, Daoist Jiupao, was a true Golden Core cultivator. Before the collapse of the Kuiyin Sect, he was even the leader of the third generation disciples of the sect, enjoying all the sect's favor, yet he only possessed two magic treasures. He didn't know how much effort it took to gather all the spiritual materials to forge his Natal Magic Treasure. The other magic treasure, the Ten Directions Yama Banner, was passed down by an ancestor. This person was clearly a Foundation Establishment cultivator, not only capable of Sword Qi Thunder Sound but also possessing two magic treasures. Even more bizarrely, he could actually use both of them. When on earth did he provoke such a person? If he knew that there was also a damaged magic treasure in Qin Sang's Mustard Seed Bag, which only needed spiritual materials to be repaired and restored, he might well vomit blood.

The silver-robed man hastily summoned the flower basket, and from it shot out streams of iridescent light, creating thousands of auspicious colors hanging in the sky, all coiling towards the Ebony Sword. Hoping the flying sword's power was depleted, he might be able to obstruct it for a moment. Just as the silver-robed man was about to burn his vital blood essence to continue his escape, a shocking scene unfolded before him. The Ebony Sword lightly trembled, and its emerald-green body suddenly erupted with an eerie crimson hue. Immediately after, a beam of blood light sprayed out, landing squarely on the flower basket.

Upon contact with the blood light, the flower basket seemed to be contaminated by some foul substance. The colorful and intricate flower basket instantly lost all its color, its flowers withered, the basket itself turned blood-red, and its spiritual essence was completely lost. *Pfft!* The flower basket was directly pierced by the rapidly following Ebony Sword.

"What kind of blood light is this?" As this thought flashed through the silver-robed man's mind, a sharp pain suddenly erupted in his chest. He looked down to see that the Ebony Sword had, at some unknown moment, pierced through both his spiritual power and his chest. Blood sprayed into the sky, and all signs of life vanished.

On the solitary peak, Qin Sang waved his hand to obliterate the lingering traces of the battle, then his figure flickered repeatedly as he ascended into the air. In his haste, he glanced around. In this mountain range, many faint auras had appeared, clearly from cultivators in seclusion, startled by the commotion of the Ebony Sword slaying the silver-robed man. Qin Sang wasn't afraid of Foundation Establishment cultivators, but he worried about attracting Golden Core cultivators from Tianyou Pass. He wasn't arrogant enough to confront Golden Core cultivators head-on. That was why he unhesitatingly unleashed the Ebony Sword's divine ability, 'Blood Filth Divine Light,' to finish the battle quickly. The Ebony Sword, having devoured the Boundless Blood Mulberry, gained the 'Blood Filth Divine Light' divine ability, which could even severely damage the spirituality of magic treasures. Dealing with mere magic tools was naturally effortless. Unfortunately, the Blood Filth Divine Light could only be used once per activation and required time to recover.
