When this dense sword beams turned to envelope Yi Yun, Yi Yun’s body turned into shadows people couldn’t read.
This feeling was the same illusion Zhang Yuxian gave off when he demonstrated ‘Elephant Swallowing Technique’. They did not know what moves Yi Yun was making, but all they felt was that the arena was covered with shadows!
Sword beams and shadows were dazzling!
But there was no doubt that Tao Yunxiao’s swords had failed to strike!
A person with a sword had issued a dense rain-like attack, while the other was avoiding barehandedly. It was clear who was better!
“What!?” Tao Yunxiao’s face turned red. He knew Yi Yun would be a tough fight, so he had requested permission to use the ancestral artifact against Yi Yun. But he did not know that fighting Yi Yun would be much harder than he expected.
He had practiced his swordplay for several years, where his sword was as if a part of him; yet, he could not even touch the sleeves of Yi Yun!
“Yunxiao, don’t be anxious!” The voice of Tao Yunxiao’s father came into his ears. He could tell that his son was turning distraught from facing Yi Yun.
“I know, Father. Since he has such strength, I have no choice but to use the ancestral artifact’s strength!” Although Tao Yunxiao was haughty and arrogant, he wasn’t a fool who couldn’t tell Yi Yun’s strength. He knew Yi Yun still had a lot of hidden power during his battle with Lian Chengyu. Still, Tao Yunxiao had the confidence to beat Yi Yun, because he could borrow the ancestral artifact’s energy!
“Yunxiao, are you sure…?” Tao Yunxiao’s father was worried because using the ancestral artifact’s energy was no trifling matter.
Tao Yunxiao did not respond because he hit himself in the chest.
“Puah!”
Tao Yunxiao spit out a mouthful of blood onto the female sword.
And the female sword was like before when it absorbed the cow’s blood. It absorbed the Tao Yunxiao’s blood and soon turned red and sinister!
This scene transfixed the audience
They knew the Tao tribal clan had an ancestral artifact, but for what it was or its powers, they had no idea.
“Using blood to honor the ancestral artefact… Yunxiao really is desperate.” The grand elder frowned. The Tao tribal clan’s ancestral artifact had some sinister side to it. Just using it as a sword gave one immense strength.
To use the Tao tribal clan’s ancestral artifacts greatest power, the artifact had to be fed with blood. And it was most effective if the blood was the sword user’s!
But to use the user’s blood to feed the ancestral artifact would cause great harm to the user’s Yuan Qi. By doing this blood ritual, Tao Yunxiao might take about half a year to recover. For a young warrior like Tao Yunxiao, half a year’s time was extremely precious.
Tao Yunxiao had laid his bets; if he did not win, it would be a huge blow to him!
“Buzz——”
After the female sword fed on the blood, it began to emit a sound across the entire area. The Tao tribal clan people were stunned.
They did not know such a scene would happen after the Tao tribal clan’s ancestral artifact was fed blood.
Although an ancestral artifact that fed on blood seemed sinister, there was no doubt of its power. One could tell just from the sounds of the ancestral artifact.
