Chapter 212 The Origin of the Immortal-Drinking Blade

Since there's no way to escape, let's just go all out and fight to the death!

Since stepping into this vast and boundless wilderness, I have never fought without holding back.

It was only because Ying Yue and Wu Ren both regarded him as a solid support that Kuang Zheng dared not take risks easily.

However, at this moment, he was already surrounded and in a dilemma.

Whether they try every means to escape or fight with all their might, the final outcome seems to be predetermined.

Surrounded by the three lords, escape and victory were virtually impossible.

You must know that the three people in front of you represent the strongest fighting force on the planet. For a cultivator at the Golden Core stage to gain even the slightest advantage from these three is nothing short of a pipe dream.

If we want to turn our lives around, we can only wait for a miracle to happen.

Since we're willing to die standing up, we'll die kneeling too.

Why not fight fair and square?

Moreover, Kuang Zheng was born with a strong will and had no habit of being obsequious.

When asked to kneel, he actually refused.

Since that's the case, let's fight with all our might!

Even if I die, I will have no regrets towards anyone!

Upon realizing this, Kuang Zheng no longer harbored even the slightest thought of escaping.

He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to frantically circulate the surging spiritual energy within his body.

Accompanied by a crisp, soft murmur—"canglanglang!"

A long sword emitting a thick, crimson blood mist suddenly appeared in his right hand.

This weapon, named the Immortal Drinking Blade, originally shimmered with an eerie crimson light. Now, under the infusion of Kuang Zheng's powerful spiritual energy, it radiated a chillingly alluring crimson light, as if it had instantly transformed into a deadly weapon from the deepest hell, eager to drink the blood of its enemies.

With the continuous influx of spiritual energy, the Immortal Drinking Blade, which had already increased in size tenfold, seemed to come alive, emitting joyful soft hums.

Suddenly, a sharp "whoosh!" pierced the sky.

A blinding red light, over a hundred meters long, suddenly shot out from the Immortal Drinking Blade!

This crimson light, like a roaring fire dragon, swept across the surroundings with boundless power and scorching energy.

Wherever it passed, the surrounding space instantly cracked and collapsed, eventually turning into nothingness.

That terrifying sharpness spread outwards at an astonishing speed, like an invisible shockwave.

Even though they were thousands of meters apart, Ling Qi and the others could still clearly feel the suffocating pressure and the incomparably sharp killing power.

Their expressions changed drastically, and a sense of fear welled up in their hearts.

When Zhu Xian witnessed the appearance of the Immortal Drinking Blade, his pupils involuntarily contracted sharply, and his body trembled slightly from extreme shock.

"The Immortal Drinking Blade! It really is the Immortal Drinking Blade!! Good heavens! You scoundrel! You actually stole the Immortal Drinking Blade, the treasure of our sect that has been missing for over ten thousand years! It is utterly despicable and utterly hateful!!"

Zhu Xian roared furiously, his eyes burning with rage.

Lei Mang, who was standing to the side, looked suspicious after hearing Zhu Xian's words.

He had never heard of whether the Immortal Drinking Blade belonged to Wild Mouth Ridge or that it had been missing for ten thousand years.

However, unlike Lei Mang, Chi Ying knew that what Zhu Xian said was true.

The sect's records clearly state that this Immortal Drinking Blade is indeed a heirloom of Noguchi Ridge.

However, for some unknown reason, they mysteriously disappeared ten thousand years ago and have not been heard from since.

Now that it has reappeared in the world, it will surely cause another huge uproar...

However, the actual situation was quite different from what Zhu Xian described.

It is true that the Immortal Drinking Knife was discovered in Noguchi Ridge, but it was obtained by chance and did not originally belong to Noguchi Ridge.

Moreover, even in the distant ancient times, no one in Noguchi Ridge could wield this Immortal Drinking Blade.

In reality, it is merely a decorative item with no substance.

When Noguchi Rei first acquired this sword, he valued it far more than anyone could have imagined.

This knife is naturally blood-red and exceptionally sharp.

Furthermore, its mysterious material, which could not be identified by its blade, was regarded as a treasure by Noguchi Rei as soon as it was discovered.

Unfortunately, the magic of the Immortal Drinking Blade seems to have come to an end.

The people of Noguchi Ridge discovered that no matter what they tried, they could not make the Immortal Drinking Blade change in any further.

In this way, it can only be considered an exceptionally sharp, blood-red longsword.

But anyone with eyes can see that the Immortal Drinking Blade is definitely not something ordinary.

Unfortunately, despite trying everything, Noguchi Ridge was unable to make any changes, and eventually, the matter was left unresolved.

In fact, not only in Noguchi Ridge, but also in almost all the famous sects and knowledgeable people in the wilderness at that time, no one could recognize the materials used to forge this precious sword.

It is precisely because of this rarity that the Immortal Drinking Blade has become famous throughout the vast wilderness.

In the past, Noguchi Ridge had sought help from Shili Cave, which is why Akakage knew about the various matters concerning the Immortal Drinking Blade.

But no matter how many methods Noguchi Ridge tried, racking his brains and exhausting all possible means to control the Immortal Drinking Blade, it remained as unmoved as a stubborn rock.

As time went by, people had no choice but to regard it as a strangely shaped ceremonial knife, shelving it for display only.

Later, for some unknown reason, the mysterious longsword mysteriously disappeared.

Since this item had no practical use, Noguchi Rei did not take it to heart at the time.

However, unexpectedly, after countless years, the forgotten Immortal Drinking Blade reappeared in the world, and it was in the hands of an ordinary human!

What's even more astonishing is that this longsword, which had consumed countless efforts of Noguchi Rei without any response, suddenly unleashed unprecedented power in the hands of a human.

The mighty Immortal Drinking Blade has finally awakened from its slumber, once again radiating its unique brilliance.

At this point, everyone, including Chi Ying, suddenly realized: to unleash the true power of the Immortal Drinking Blade, one must have human-specific spiritual energy as a power source!

This discovery has led many to speculate whether the sword originally belonged to a human.

But humans have always been synonymous with weakness on Penglai Planet!

How could they possibly forge such a divine weapon?

This caused everyone present to murmur amongst themselves...

However, unlike the doubts of such people, Zhu Xian had different thoughts at this moment.

He didn't care whether the knife was forged by humans or who the Immortal Drinking Knife had belonged to before.

Since Noguchi Ridge obtained it, Zhu Xian believed that the Immortal Drinking Blade had undoubtedly become Noguchi Ridge's private property.

Especially after witnessing the astonishing power of the Immortal Drinking Blade, Zhu Xian was even more determined to make everyone acknowledge that Noguchi Ridge was the rightful owner of this peerless treasure.

How could the meticulous Chi Ying and Lei Mang not see through Zhu Xian's little scheme?

However, for them, although the Immortal Drinking Blade was indeed a rare treasure, they were simply unable to unleash its full power like the one who wielded it.

After all, the energy within each person is different, and that's something that can't be changed.

So despite their desire for it, this precious sword was like a piece of "chicken rib" to them—tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.

For this reason, Chi Ying and Lei Mang naturally lost interest in the sword.

After all, no matter how good the Immortal Drinking Blade is, it can't produce any miraculous effects in one's own hands. So what's the use of it being so powerful?

It's clearly a case of doing more harm than good to cause Zhu Xian any trouble over something that looks good but is ultimately useless.

How could old foxes like Chi Ying and Lei Mang possibly do such a stupid thing?
