Chapter 490 - 486: The Influence of the Celestial God Demon Heart
Just as this thought emerged, Xia Feng realized something was off. The blood-colored mist on his body flickered, and he forcefully suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his head.
However, the people around were evidently tempted by Li Qingyu and began to stir again.
Xia Feng originally didn’t want to kill too many people, fearing that the aura of slaughter would make the surrounding Demonic Qi even more intense.
But it’s hard to persuade someone who’s courting death. When these Tianjiao surrounded him again, Xia Feng was too lazy to suppress the violent emotions anymore.
The Demonic Qi carried by the Celestial God Demon Heart was directly channeled into the Heaven-Burying Sword without a trace of difference, and he slashed out.
The disgusting evil aura only tainted the Heaven-Burying Sword for a moment before the sword relentlessly conveyed an uncomfortable feeling to Xia Feng.
Xia Feng had no choice but to send a thought: "Once I deal with these people in front of me, I can focus on this troublesome thing."
The Celestial God Demon Heart was simply a hot potato before being handled, and Xia Feng found it extremely troublesome.
Of course, what’s more troubling were these brainless Tianjiao.
To avoid tainting itself with that nauseating aura again, the Heaven-Burying Sword exerted four or five times its usual power.
With almost one swing, seven or eight Tianjiao around were killed.
Behind them, Li Qingyu was both shocked and angry. Shocked that Xia Feng still had so much power left after killing the Sword Demon.
Angry because Li Qingyu felt that these things should have belonged to her, but Xia Feng had stolen her opportunity.
Beside them, Xia Tianming kept wanting to find another chance to drag Xia Feng out of the battlefield, but the Tianjiao seemed to have completely lost their sanity.
Even with so many of their companions dead around them, they seemed oblivious, fearlessly charging towards Xia Feng, with some even preparing to self-detonate next to him.
They appeared completely corrupted by the surrounding aura, with no thoughts of their own, only wanting to kill Xia Feng and take the Celestial God Demon Heart from him.
Li Qingyu glanced at the two individuals behind and a glint flashed in her eyes.
She brandished the Ice Rain Sword towards Xia Feng while instructing the nearby Tianjiao: "Go deal with Li Qingxue and the other follower."
The Tianjiao’s expressions were momentarily dazed, and it took them a while to react and surround Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue.
Although they encircled the two, most of their focus still seemed attached to the Celestial God Demon Heart in Xia Feng’s hand, appearing very distracted.
At this moment, Li Qingyu also sensed something was wrong, her expression tinged with panic.
"What’s wrong with you all?"
Xia Feng sneered: "Do you really think it’s so easy to take this thing?"
"For now, I’m the only one capable of restraining it, even a little. If not, someone else might become a new Celestial God Sword Demon."
Li Qingyu could hear the truth in Xia Feng’s words, but unwilling to admit it, she stubbornly retorted: "The thing is in your hand, whatever you say, no one else knows if it’s true or not."
Xia Feng’s eyes showed more obvious irritation as he swung the Heaven-Burying Sword towards Li Qingyu.
The two quickly exchanged a few moves.
For a moment, Xia Feng even considered slapping the Celestial God Demon Heart onto Li Qingyu, turning her into a Sword Demon directly.
But after thinking it over, all the messy things on Li Qingyu, if she truly turned into a Sword Demon, might prove to be more troublesome than the previous Celestial God Sword Demon.
After a moment of hesitation, he didn’t rashly rush in.
Instead, the surrounding Tianjiao fearlessly caused quite a bit of trouble for Xia Feng.
Even Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue beside him found themselves tangled up with these Tianjiao, becoming somewhat irritated.
As Xia Feng maneuvered with Li Qingyu, he increased the speed at which he injected Life Divine Power into the Celestial God Demon Heart.
Just as he was about to suppress the unruly Celestial God Demon Heart, Xia Feng suddenly transmitted a message to Xia Tianming and Li Qingxue: "You two leave first, move deeper, away from this battle."
"These people’s minds have been corrupted by Demonic Qi, continuing this fight is meaningless."
Xia Tianming hesitated for a moment and prepared to leave, while Li Qingxue worriedly sent a message to Xia Feng: "But what about you, husband?"
Xia Feng glanced at her, eyes calm: "Don’t worry, I have my methods."
"You head deeper, they can’t see the surroundings and will likely fall out of the battle zone easily."
"I have Demon Power and can see your figures. If needed, I can use the Dream Realm Pearl to find your direction."
Remembering the capability of Xia Feng’s Dream Realm Pearl, Li Qingxue’s expression eased quite a bit, but still carried some worry.
Xia Tianming tugged at her clothes, sending a message: "These people are obviously in a strange state, let’s not add to Feng’Er’s chaos here."
"He probably wants to make use of that Celestial God Demon Heart but fears affecting the two of us, so dares not use any large-scale attacks."
Li Qingxue seemed to have a moment of realization, quickly following Xia Tianming out of the battle range.
After she left, she couldn’t help but look back at Xia Feng’s situation. Those Tianjiao who had encircled them showed no intention of following.
Once they left, these Tianjiao, with red eyes, fixated again on the Celestial God Demon Heart in Xia Feng’s hand.
Li Qingyu shouted in anger for a long time, but the surrounding Tianjiao seemed deaf to her words, all of their minds attracted by the Celestial God Demon Heart.
However, as Xia Feng channeled more Life Divine Power into the Celestial God Demon Heart, its eerie attraction seemed to weaken significantly.
Besides Li Qingyu who watched Xia Feng with unwillingness, the remainings stood hesitantly at a distance from the two.
The ground was littered with severed limbs and piled with the corpses of many Tianjiao—these people finally realized the fear, withdrawing uncertainly as they witnessed such a scene.
Not to mention it was agreed initially that the spoils of this battle were Xia Feng’s; if they had the ability to kill and seize treasures, it would be one thing.
These people couldn’t even defeat the Sword Demon; they were no match for Xia Feng.
Li Qingyu’s mind was evidently somewhat dazed at this moment; if they went to assist now, it was unlikely that the Goddess Qingyu would remember.
So these people stood at a distance, watching Xia Feng with a tinge of caution.
As long as this man wasn’t corrupted by the Celestial God Demon Heart and turned into a new Sword Demon.
Seeing the surrounding Tianjiao, Li Qingyu, on the verge of exploding with anger, clasped a strange-looking pearl at an unknown time.
She tossed it, and a transparent net emerged from the pearl, directly swept toward Xia Feng’s left hand, seemingly trying to take the Celestial God Demon Heart away.
