Chapter 61 The Epiphany of the Ritual Article's Soul
1541 Words
The voice was from the Bloodline Sword. With dark red light around, it gave people a feeling of depression.
The deep voice resounded in the sacred shield of brightness, which was shocking.
The ruddy face of the old man, the ritual article's soul, turned pale and he got feeble. He had to lean against the metallic wall behind him to stand reluctantly.
How powerful the deterrent effect was!
The pressure released by the old man in front of Mu Yunfei was broken under the dark red light which showed up all of a sudden, and Mu Yunfei didn't feel the pressure anymore.
The old man was astonished, and even Mu Yunfei's eyes widened when he saw the dark red light erupting from the Bloodline Sword.
Moreover, the Bloodline Sword said something unexpectedly.
What did it mean?
It meant that there also was a ritual article's soul in his Bloodline Sword, and it appeared that it wouldn't be inferior to the old man in the sacred shield of brightness.
Looking at the old man's scared face, Mu Yunfei suddenly had a feeling that the ritual article's soul in his Bloodline Sword must be very powerful.
The old man's face was almost ghastly pale, and he asked while trembling, "Excuse me? Sir..."
"No need to say more." The deep voice appeared again and interrupted the old man. Then it continued, "Let go of them."
The words were still simple yet with strong killing intent.
Mu Yunfei stood aside. Even though the momentum didn't aim at him, he could feel the great pressure produced by the dark red breath.
What the old man was bearing could be imagined.
Mu Yunfei didn't say anything but just stood aside quietly, looking at everything happening before his eyes. At least so far, everything became favorable to him.
This time, when the old man heard the order to let go of the three, he didn't refuse directly again but fell into silence.
To him, if he let the three go, it would remind him of the pain he had suffered before to some extent and thoroughly shatter the standard he had insisted on for these years, the bigoted thought in others' eyes.
At the moment, he was hesitant.
"Let go of them!" The deep voice became impatient obviously because of the old man's silence and urged him again.
The dark red light on the Bloodline Sword surged with dazzling radiance. Evidently, it was prepared to take actions. At the moment, it seemed that everything around quieted down, and Mu Yunfei could even clearly hear that his heart beat faster gradually, as if death was coming.
The Bloodline Sword was totally out of his control and independent outside his body.
He could see that it seemed that the ritual article's soul of the Bloodline Sword warned the old man for the last time and gave him a chance of survival.
Mu Yunfei had a feeling that with the great power in the ritual article's soul of the Bloodline Sword, even without the old man's permission, it could smash the sacred shield of brightness directly. After all, the Bloodline Sword had never been defeated in a competition about the level of the ritual article.
The ritual article's soul of the sacred shield of brightness looked at the scene before his eyes and sighed in secret. Then he took a deep breath and nodded with difficulty. He didn't dare to refuse, as the breath out of the Bloodline Sword was far beyond the reach of his ability to resist.
The action of nodding was so difficult for him, and the conviction he had followed for years collapsed.
As soon as he agreed, it seemed that something was broken in his heart.
A peculiar warm current flowed all over his body and moistened his stiff body with fear, and the golden light which dimmed under the oppression of the Bloodline Sword became bright again.
"Oh?" The deep voice was surprised and then it stopped.
The dark red light faded gradually, and everything around was covered with holy light again. The Bloodline Sword flew back into Mu Yunfei's hand. Light flashed, and it entered his body.
Everything happened in the dream seemingly.
"Kid." At this time, the ritual article's soul of the sacred shield of brightness called him gently, with affability in the tone unexpectedly.
"I want to thank the ritual article's soul of your sword," The old man sighed with emotion. "If it weren't for the pressure he brought, perhaps I would be trapped in this condition all the time and restrained by everything in the past. I had never expected that I would have an epiphany someday." While speaking, the old man shed faint golden tears unexpectedly.
"Epiphany?" Mu Yunfei asked in confusion.
The old man explained patiently, "Yes. When the ritual article's soul is powerful to a certain extent, it will reach the choke point, and the epiphany can help us break it through, so we have a chance to be promoted to a higher level. Because of the epiphany, I have figured out some things. This epiphany has made me think less about the pain in my heart and let me get rid of the painful memories at that moment. If to forget something and start anew are like samsara, I will give it up and focus on creating brightness calmly."
"Little guy, thanks." While speaking, the old man bowed to Mu Yunfei unexpectedly.
"It's...nothing." Mu Yunfei hurriedly shook his head. Although he didn't know much about the epiphany of the ritual article's soul, obviously this old man decided to let them out, which was a good thing.
Mu Yunfei walked forward slowly and helped the illusory the ritual article's soul up, asking with a bitter smile, "Sir, now can you..."
"No problem. I will let you out and open my mind to talk with the chubby in the future. The epiphany came too late, and I am regretful." The ritual article's soul sighed with emotion and then waved his hand. The light around changed.
It was a small warehouse before Mu Yunfei's eyes. Nana and Bei Linfeng stood next to him and looked at him in astonishment, with disbelief in their eyes, but there were more surprise and joy.
The sacred shield of brightness became smaller with a normal size at the moment and lay on the floor aside.
When the three looked at each other speechlessly, golden light flashed on the sacred shield of brightness all of a sudden, and a figure showed up out of thin air, with holy breath.
It was the ritual article's soul of the sacred shield of brightness.
He looked at Bei Linfeng whose eyes widened like bulbs and said unhurriedly, "Kid, I am the ritual article's soul of this sacred shield of brightness, and my name is Brilliance. I am happy and honored to choose you as my new owner. I am looking forward to cooperating with you in the future."
Mu Yunfei stood aside. Although he had just heard the old man's tone in the end when he was calm, at the thought of his earlier tone...
He really couldn't appreciate it.
Bei Linfeng nodded crazily like a chicken pecking at crumbs. It seemed that every word Brilliance said was perfect and deserved affirmation.
It made Brilliance show a smile and like this fatty more.
He turned to Mu Yunfei and nodded at him meaningfully. Then he disappeared.
In Mu Yunfei's opinion, the old man must thank him for the epiphany.
Mu Yunfei looked out of the window at the top of the warehouse. It was at night, with scattered stars. It was peaceful.
He grabbed Nana's soft hand and touched it, which was warm and humid like jade and soft like cotton, warming his heart.
Bei Linfeng was still immersed in the joy after seeing the ritual article's soul, and he could hardly come back to earth.
Mu Yunfei picked up the sacred shield of brightness still with golden light on the floor and patted Bei Linfeng. "Fatty, it's said that there are many traps outside. I will see how powerful you are."
"Leave it to me." Bei Linfeng picked up the sacred shield of brightness with a smile and led the two to walk out.
When he received the sacred shield of brightness just now, the epiphany about the abilities showed up in his brain, and he achieved mastery gradually.
This was the help given by the ritual article's soul.
The traps set by common people were low-level. Under the function of the brightness defense field released by the sacred shield of brightness, the hidden arrows couldn't get close to them at all.
They entered the city slowly.
A bright moon hung in the sky, and the clear moonlight shone the three like white feathers. With the breeze at night, everything was dim, harmonious and peaceful.
After the incident, they started to consider the task again, yet many questions came to Mu Yunfei's mind successively.
Who on earth were the men that tried to intercept and kill them in the plane?
The contract had taken effect, but why didn't Zoria show up?
What was the ritual article's soul in his Bloodline Sword like?
Everything seemed to become complex...
