Death Grip
"You are here to find this person, right?" The Yellow Spring Demon Lord said, reaching out into the void and suddenly a figure appeared in his grasp, and that person was Meng Xiner, whom Xing Chen wanted to see the most at that moment.
"Meng Xin'er..." Xing Chen looked up at Meng Xiner, who was held in the Yellow Spring Demon Lord's hand, and an intense rage erupted within him.
However, due to his body being severely overdrawn, this rage would not serve as a source of strength; instead, it would further deplete his life potential and could even lead to his immediate death.
"As expected, I guessed correctly. So this girl is named Meng Xin'er, huh? Haha, encountering her this time is truly an unexpected gain for me! I should thank you all for helping me find her!" The Yellow Spring Demon Lord laughed heartily.
The Hundred-Day Blood Curse within Meng Xiner's body was a treasure among treasures for the Yellow Spring Demon Lord because this Hundred-Day Blood Curse could give rise to a powerful Blood Dragon.
Moreover, he had another method to dissolve this Blood Dragon, allowing that power to fully merge into Meng Xiner's body. By controlling Meng Xiner, he would gain a very powerful subordinate.
"What have you done to her?" Xing Chen could not suppress the fury in his heart. Even knowing that continuing in such anger would lead to his death, he could not contain it.
"I haven't had the chance to do anything to her yet! But don't worry, I will definitely treat her well, haha..." The Yellow Spring Demon Lord laughed again.
"You... you..." Xing Chen gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with Demonic Flame. However, it was evident that a significant portion of his originally black hair had turned white at that moment.
This was a manifestation of the life potential within him being rapidly consumed; if this continued, his life potential would soon be depleted completely, leading to his death.
"Angry? There's something that will make you even angrier. Do you want to hear it?" The Yellow Spring Demon Lord teased as he looked at Xing Chen.
He was quite familiar with the Hate Emperor's Art. This cultivation method could unleash power far beyond one's realm through various emotions, especially hatred. However, its greatest drawback was that doing so consumed the body's potential, particularly when a certain emotion reached its peak.
At this moment, the anger within Xing Chen had already reached its limit; thus, his life potential was rapidly depleting, and his originally black hair had almost instantly turned white.
"Poof..." Finally, Xing Chen couldn't hold back any longer and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. The Demonic Flame in his eyes also dimmed significantly, as his life potential was nearly exhausted at this moment.
If he hadn't fought the Golden Crow Deity earlier, with the anger he felt now, he could have faced the Yellow Spring Demon Lord head-on. Even if he couldn't win, they would have both suffered greatly. However, the life potential he had just consumed hadn't been replenished yet, so he naturally lacked the strength to launch an attack. No matter how intense his anger was, it would only accelerate the depletion of his life potential.
"Junior brother..." Xueqing saw Xing Chen in this state, tears instantly streaming down her face. She spoke up to comfort him, "Junior brother, don't be angry. He's trying to provoke you on purpose. You mustn't let him get to you; otherwise, you'll fall into his trap."
"Hehe, I didn't mean to provoke him. If I had wanted to do that, he would have been dead by now; there's no way he'd still be alive. But don't worry, I will definitely train this beauty well for you. When the time comes, I will turn her into the most outstanding female slave. If you want her, just let me know. Since we know each other, I will definitely let you enjoy her properly, hahahaha..." The Yellow Spring Demon Lord couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.
"Ah! Ah! Ah—Yellow Spring Demon Lord, I will never let you go!" Xing Chen shouted in anger, and in an instant, his eyes turned blood-red before quickly fading to a grayish-white.
Buzz!
At that moment, a buzzing sound suddenly echoed around them. Two beams of white light shot up instantly, and a powerful force pierced through the entire cave. The two beams of white light slowly materialized in mid-air, transforming into two segments of a sword.
No, it shouldn't be called two segments of a sword; it was one sword tip and one sword body—only missing a hilt to combine into an unblemished Divine Weapon.
"This is... Pointing Sword?" Xing Chen looked up with his grayish-white eyes and immediately recognized that these were the other two segments of his Pointing Sword.
He had only one segment with a hilt in hand; the other two segments had been lost until now when he unexpectedly encountered them here.
The Pointing Sword was the Divine Weapon of the Sword Sect's Sword Elder and was among the highest-tier Divine Weapons—Super Divine Grade Divine Weapon—infinitely close to Spirit-Level Divine Weapon.
However, for some unknown reason, it had broken into three pieces. Now if he could reunite all three segments into one, it would allow the complete Pointing Sword to reappear. With the power of the complete Pointing Sword, defeating the Yellow Spring Demon Lord wouldn't be impossible.
"Gather!" Xing Chen shouted loudly at the two segments of the divine sword in mid-air while retrieving the hilt of the Pointing Sword from his hand.
Clang! Clang! Clang...
The sound of metal clashing echoed as the three segments of the Pointing Sword suddenly merged into a complete Pointing Sword.
"Is that really the Pointing Sword?" The Hate Emperor exclaimed in astonishment upon seeing the sword.
The Pointing Sword was the personal weapon of the Zhi Emperor during Ancient Times, its power rivaling that of his Hate Demon Sword. It was only after the Zhi Emperor's death that it came into the possession of the Sword Elder. However, after an incident in the sea, the Pointing Sword inexplicably broke into three pieces. The Sword Elder only brought back one segment of the hilt, and shortly thereafter, he died as well.
What puzzled the Hate Emperor was how a Divine Weapon like the Pointing Sword could be broken. Even an ordinary Spirit-Level Divine Weapon would find it difficult to defeat him, let alone other treasures. So how did this Pointing Sword break? This question left the Hate Emperor perplexed.
"Damn it, what is this light?" The Yellow Spring Demon Lord screamed in agony at the sight of the light emanating from the Pointing Sword. Xing Chen, holding the Pointing Sword, trembled as if it were not his to wield; he felt unworthy of its power.
"Senior Sister, quickly take hold of the Pointing Sword," Xing Chen shouted at Xueqing.
The Pointing Sword represented a divine belief: "The earth is unjust; I come to correct it." This embodied absolute justice and fairness, a sword that someone like Xing Chen, who practiced demonic arts, could never master.
Previously, when he had only possessed a third of the Pointing Sword, it lacked its current power. At that time, he had not yet practiced demonic arts. But now things were different; not only had the Pointing Sword become whole again, but he had also cultivated demonic powers. Therefore, he could no longer control the Pointing Sword and had to pass it to Xueqing.
"You filthy brat, put that sword away! Otherwise, I'll kill this woman right now!" The Yellow Spring Demon Lord threatened loudly while gripping Meng Xiner's white neck.
"You dare!" Xing Chen's previously simmered anger flared up again at the Yellow Spring Demon Lord's words.
"Do you think I wouldn't dare? I'll count to three. If you don't put away that damned sword, I'll kill her right here," the Yellow Spring Demon Lord threatened fiercely.
"Junior Brother..." Xueqing looked at Xing Chen hesitantly.
"Put away the sword!" Xing Chen gritted his teeth. He couldn't allow Meng Xiner to be harmed, so he had no choice but to comply with the Yellow Spring Demon Lord's demands.
Xueqing bit her lip and then put away the Pointing Sword. Seeing this situation, a satisfied expression appeared on the Yellow Spring Demon Lord's face as he said, "That's more like it. If you dared not to put away the sword, I would have killed this woman in an instant. To reward your obedience, I will help you awaken her now so you can say one last goodbye."
"Yellow Spring Demon Lord..." Xing Chen bit his lip tightly, and at the same time, the vitality within him was rapidly depleting.
"Child, you can no longer control your body. If this continues, you will be killed by him directly," Hate Emperor finally couldn't bear to watch any longer. If Xing Chen's emotional fluctuations continued at this level, he would indeed be killed by the other party.
As soon as Hate Emperor finished speaking, his Soul Power instantly took over Xing Chen's body, and even though Xing Chen's soul was filled with anger, it would not affect his body.
"Yellow Spring Demon Lord, you still have time to release Meng Xiner. Otherwise, it will be too late for regrets," Hate Emperor said coldly after taking control of Xing Chen's body, his previous anger vanishing completely.
"Oh? Hate Emperor, you finally came out. However, if I want to kill her, can you stop me?" Yellow Spring Demon Lord replied with a strange laugh, showing no concern for Hate Emperor's threat, as he was currently in the dominant position.
"I indeed cannot stop you. However, I can summon your Underworld God. Just think about it—once the Underworld God arrives here, you will become a mere pawn, a dog to the Underworld God. Is that a life you wish to experience?" Hate Emperor coldly glanced at Yellow Spring Demon Lord, threatening him. He knew what Yellow Spring Demon Lord feared and aimed directly at his weakness.
"Serving the Underworld God is a blessing for me. If you have the ability, go ahead and summon! The first one to die will be you," Yellow Spring Demon Lord said with a slight change in expression before quickly regaining composure.
"Yellow Spring Demon Lord, are you forcing me?" Hate Emperor looked at him sharply.
"Haha, I am indeed forcing you. What can you do about it? You won't summon? Fine! I will summon instead. I will awaken this woman right now and let you see how she crawls at my feet calling me master," Yellow Spring Demon Lord laughed heartily.
