Chapter 296: A Mystery in the Small World
“It’s best if you don’t have a Small World, kid. I had no choice but to devote myself to you because of your good apt.i.tude. So, you’d better not have any devious thoughts.”
“Devote yourself to me… it sounds as if I’ve done something to you.”
Victor ignored the sword spirit’s words and focused his attention on Feng Jiu’s self-created Small World.
What made Victor feel strange was that this Small World was much bigger than what he had imagined. It seemed that the mountain peak was just a short distance away, but even after two hours, Victor had yet to arrive.
“What’s going on?”
Victor subconsciously asked the sword spirit for help, but he suddenly realized that he had been relying too much on the sword spirit recently. It was not a good idea to continue like this.
In addition, the sword spirit did not seem to have any intention of helping him. After thinking for a while, Victor decided that this time, he would rely on his own ability to solve his problems.
With that thought in mind, Victor took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He thought about all the details disclosed to him by the sword spirit since the beginning.
“Self-formed world… Phoenix Burning Sky Technique… true phoenix essence blood… an opportunity specially prepared for me… Wait! I seem to understand!”
Victor cried out in surprise and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground. He executed the Phoenix Burning Sky Technique, using the true phoenix essence blood as a guide, and attempted to communicate with this world!
After learning Victor’s thoughts, the sword spirit appeared to be very satisfied.
Just as Victor had guessed, Feng Jiu was dead, and his only hope of revival was suppressed under the Great Snow Mountain. Therefore, this Small World had become an ownerless land!
However, coincidentally!
Not only did Victor learn the Phoenix Burning Sky Technique, but he also happened to have used the true phoenix essence blood to temper himself. His body was tainted with Feng Jiu’s aura and karma. If everything was as expected, this world would acknowledge Victor’s existence!
Of course, this was only the best scenario. It was also possible that Victor could not withstand the power of the Small World, and his body would explode and die!
Whether he lived or died depended on fate.
At this moment, Victor was using all his strength to implement the Phoenix Burning Sky Technique. The scorching flames surrounded his body and continuously converged into the form of a true phoenix. Upon closer inspection, it was exactly the same as Feng Jiu from back then!
Of course, Victor did not notice this. Similarly, he did not know who Feng Jiu was.
However, at this moment, the vast clear sky suddenly underwent a change!
In the blink of an eye, dark clouds gathered, thunder rumbled, and a strong wind blew!
Victor had successfully made contact with the Small World!
As for now, it was up to Victor to make the Small World recognize him as its master.
At the same time, in the Small World.
Xiao Chenggan’s brows were tightly knitted, and he was slightly irritated.
It had been four hours since he had arrived in this Small World.
During these four hours, he had not seen any opportunities or other people, and he had been walking around in circles. It felt as if he was being played and it made Xiao Chenggan very unhappy.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chenggan took out a fiery red crystal and crushed it gently.
Immediately, a phoenix cry resounded through the entire Small World!
“Not good! They actually have the ability to communicate with the Small World! Kid! You have to speed up the process!”
“I’m working hard!”
Victor gritted his teeth and sweated profusely.
He did not find that the remnant will of this Small World was actually a stubborn one. No matter what, it would not allow humans to become its master. It kept rejecting Victor’s aura!
Moreover, just now, what Xiao Chenggan released was actually a trace of Feng Jiu’s soul!
This undoubtedly increased the difficulty for Victor to control this world!
“Senior Feng Jiu, according to the agreement, if you wish for me to control this place, I will help you retrieve the thing that is suppressed under the Great Snow Mountain.”
“Greed! I have only promised to pa.s.s down a whole set of cultivation techniques to you. Now, you want to get your hands on my own world!”
“Senior, do you have a choice? In this generation, only I, the first hand of my Xiao family, will be able to bring you back to life.”
Xiao Chenggan’s expression was calm, but his heart was already in turmoil!
His father had only told him that by crushing this crystal, he would be able to obtain all the opportunities. Who would have thought that what was sealed inside the crystal was actually a wisp of Feng Jiu’s soul!
However, so what?
Wasn’t the once unexcelled expert also in such a miserable situation now?
Xiao Chenggan’s words caused Feng Jiu’s remnant soul to sink into deep thought.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that there was another person fighting for the ownership of the Small World, and he could not help but be enraged!
However, when he used the Small World to lock onto Victor, he revealed a smile.
After that, Feng Jiu’s remnant soul laughed even more arrogantly!
“Little brat of the Xiao family, do you think that my old soul can’t do anything to you?”
“Senior, please let I, a junior, broaden my horizons.”
“That’s good! I’ll let you have a look!”
Feng Jiu was still curious. Although it was only for an instant, he could still sense the aura of an old friend.
A…
A lecherous dragon with a cheap mouth…
Furthermore, when he locked onto Victor, he confirmed his suspicion!
Moreover, he could sense a familiar aura from Victor’s body. It was the blood in his heart!
“So that’s it! So that’s it! hahaha! Old dragon! This time, I, Feng Jiu, owe you one!”
Feng Jiu suddenly laughed toward the sky. After that, he stared fixedly at Xiao Chenggan, his eyes flashing with a trace of viciousness!
“Brat, I have never been threatened by anyone before! Even Xiao Buyu wouldn’t dare to threaten me! Junior, you must learn to respect your senior!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Jiu’s soul soared into the sky and fused with the Small World!
In the next moment, the dark clouds dispersed and the violent wind suddenly stopped.
At the same time, Victor opened his eyes and said in disbelief, “I seem to have… succeeded?”
“Kid, you’re still young. Don’t talk big. Let alone you, even that old fart Feng Jiu…”
Before the sword spirit could finish speaking, a voice that was extremely familiar to it suddenly sounded.
“What about me?”
“Feng… Feng Jiu!”
Hearing this voice, the sword spirit’s reaction was extremely intense.
“It’s just a wisp of my remnant soul. My flesh and blood were annihilated and all three of my souls were lost. I could only seal my life force into my eyes, but I didn’t expect that little dog to seal my eyes!
“Forget it, there’s no need to mention the past. But you, how did you become so miserable? You were once so dignified…”
“Cough cough!”
Before Feng Jiu could finish his sentence, the sword spirit coughed lightly, indicating for him to stop.
“There are some things that are tainted by karma. He’s still young and can’t afford to learn about them.”
“Oh? So, this is the heaven shifter you found?”
Feng Jiu looked at Victor with interest. After a long while, he nodded her head thoughtfully.
“Your talent is not bad. You’re a good material for strength cultivation. Your cultivation level is a little low, but you’re still young and have ample time.”
“Senior Feng Jiu.”
“Oh? You know who I am?”
“I’ve often heard the sword spirit mention you.”
“Is that so? Then what did it say about me?”
Feng Jiu looked at Victor with interest.
In so many years, Victor was the first person who was fearless when facing him.
Even Xiao Chenggan and Xiao Buyu, father and son, could not help but feel fear when facing Feng Jiu!
“The sword spirit always said that if senior were to come back to life, he would definitely make those b*stards pay the price.”
