Bab 2874: 3076
Chapter 3076: A Plot from a Fellow Clansman
Yan Bei realized that the battle blade might not have been fully repaired.
Perhaps it only appeared recovered on the surface, but was still damaged internally.
But thinking again, it didn't seem quite right. He had clearly refined the battle blade. If there was damage, he should have discovered it.
Moreover, over so many years, this battle blade had accompanied him through dozens of large and small battles, and nothing like this had ever happened.
He couldn't figure it out, so naturally he targeted Lin Moyu, shouting angrily, "What exactly did you do!"
Lin Moyu also found it strange at this point. He saw the cracks on the battle blade, but what did that have to do with him?
"It's your own trashy treasure, what does it have to do with me?"
Though he said this, he also felt strange in his heart.
He knew very well the power of the Space-Rending Killing Formation. Now the formation's power wasn't fully unleashed yet, it shouldn't be able to shatter a seventh-level Dao Venerable treasure.
Moreover, the process of the battle blade's shattering didn't look like it was broken by the formation, but started cracking from the inside.
Lin Moyu became vigilant, instinctively feeling something was amiss.
He naturally retreated some distance. When facing unknown situations, Lin Moyu's first reaction was to ensure his own safety.
The Space-Rending Killing Formation didn't change, continuously bombarding Yan Bei without stopping.
The sound of impacts like hammering iron was incessant. All attacks fell on the battle blade, which had to endure thousands of attacks every second.
The cracks on the battle blade grew more and more numerous, looking like it would completely shatter at any moment.
Yan Bei finally realized something was wrong. Although the Space-Rending Killing Formation's power was strong, it shouldn't be enough to shatter his treasure.
This battle blade wasn't being shattered by the Space-Rending Killing Formation, but for some other reason.
Although the battle blade couldn't be considered a clan heirloom, it was still a rare treasure, obtained by the previous clan leader from some secret realm at the risk of his life. It wasn't worth letting it shatter like this.
He gritted his teeth and brought out a round shield.
This round shield was covered in spikes. Although it looked like a shield, it was more like a weapon.
The round shield suddenly enlarged, taking the place of the battle blade to block the spatial blades.
As the round shield activated, the spikes on it also suddenly grew larger.
Huge spikes densely covered the shield's surface. Large numbers of spatial blades struck the spikes, quickly flattening them.
But the next instant, the spikes regrew, returning to their original state.
With the spikes blocking the first wave, the round shield itself had to bear much less of the attack.
With this round shield blocking, Yan Bei immediately tried to recall the battle blade.
But he suddenly found he couldn't recall the battle blade.
At this moment, his connection with the battle blade was completely severed.
It seemed not severed, yet the battle blade completely ignored his commands.
Almost instinctively, Yan Bei tried to cut off his connection with the battle blade, letting it become an ownerless object again.
Then his face changed drastically. He actually couldn't cut off his connection with the battle blade.
Moreover, without the spatial blades' attacks, the battle blade was still rapidly shattering, looking like it would completely collapse at any moment.
At this point, Yan Bei fully realized something was wrong and immediately tried to throw the battle blade away.
But the battle blade seemed stuck to his hand. He couldn't even throw it away.
Outside the formation, Lin Moyu witnessed all this with his own eyes.
His heart moved, and he opened his Undead Eye.
Two brilliant souls appeared in his vision.
Lin Moyu was suddenly shocked, "There's a soul in the battle blade, and it's a ninth-level Dao Venerable one!"
No matter how strong his deductive abilities, he could never have imagined that a ninth-level Dao Venerable soul was hidden in the battle blade.
Seeing this scene, Lin Moyu almost took out some melon seeds. He felt there was a good show coming up.
Because this soul in the battle blade shared the same origin as Yan Bei, also coming from the Blazing Divine Eagle clan.
The Blazing Divine Eagle clan had never produced a ninth-level Dao Venerable powerhouse. The one closest to ninth-level Dao Venerable was the previous clan leader, Yan Dao!
After annihilating the Ice Demon Lizard clan, the Blazing Divine Eagle clan was at its most likely moment to become a new royal clan.
Unfortunately, Yan Dao later died from the formation's backlash, which abruptly halted their march towards becoming a royal clan.
Luckily by then, Yan Bei had grown up. However, at the same eighth-level Dao Venerable realm, Yan Bei's strength was inferior to Yan Dao's.
And this battle blade was a treasure left behind by Yan Dao.
So without saying, the soul hiding in the battle blade must be the previous clan leader, Yan Dao's soul.
Yan Dao hadn't died. He had faked his death, fooling everyone. His soul had actually hidden in the battle blade.
And he had hidden very cleverly. Even Yan Bei, who had refined the battle blade, hadn't discovered him.
Now, as the battle blade shattered, Yan Dao's soul had also advanced to ninth-level Dao Venerable. What would happen next would indeed be a good show.
Lin Moyu had almost guessed the entire process. He knew Yan Dao hiding inside must have had some plan.
Now Yan Bei was the Blazing Divine Eagle clan's leader. One mountain cannot contain two tigers. After Yan Dao came out, would he not take Yan Bei's life?
Or would Yan Bei give up the clan leader position and obey Yan Dao's orders?
A ninth-level soul of the former clan leader versus the eighth-level cultivation of the current clan leader - if they really fought, the victor would be hard to predict.
As an outsider, Lin Moyu naturally watched the show, a big show.
Boom!
The battle blade completely shattered. Large numbers of fragments howled outwards like a storm. Yan Bei was blasted away, but even so, he still gripped half a broken blade in his hand, unable to throw it away.
A flame-cloaked soul slowly walked out from the battle blade fragments. The soul emitted a powerful aura. The soul pressure of a Dao Venerable realm swept through the entire space.
Seeing the soul, Yan Bei let out a scream, "You... you didn't die."
Yan Dao's soul revealed a cold smile, "I didn't die. Are you very disappointed?"
Yan Bei said, "Not disappointed, just very surprised. You actually hid in the battle blade and deceived me."
Yan Dao shook his head, "Not just that. I've also advanced to ninth-level Dao Venerable."
Yan Bei had already seen this. His expression wasn't good, but his mouth remained hard, "You've only advanced your soul to Dao Venerable realm. You don't even have a physical body now. How can you fight me? What difference does this ninth-level Dao Venerable make with or without it?"
Yan Dao's laughter grew louder and more sinister, "You don't understand. You really don't understand the gap of ninth-level Dao Venerable."
"Even without a physical body, killing you is not difficult for a ninth-level Dao Venerable."
"Moreover, your physical body is quite good."
A ball of flame flew out from Yan Dao's soul. Yan Bei's face changed. He wanted to retreat but found he couldn't move back.
The half-broken blade in his hand suddenly transmitted a powerful force. Yan Bei was struck as if by lightning, momentarily losing the ability to move.
He watched helplessly as this ball of flame flew into his body, entering his soul.
In an instant, screams resounded throughout this space.
Crack! Crack!
On the side, Lin Moyu held melon seeds, slowly eating them, fully transformed into a spectator.
He didn't expect he would see such a good show.
The former clan leader was actually going to kill the current clan leader and possess his body, taking his place.
Most crucially, the current clan leader had clearly fallen for a scheme and had no resistance.
Under Yan Dao's calculations, the possession would most likely succeed.
Lin Moyu had already seen that Yan Dao, this former clan leader, hadn't plotted against Yan Bei, the current clan leader, overnight. He had been planning for many years.
Barring accidents, Yan Bei was definitely doomed.
