Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Hearing the deep yet towering sound of the horn beside his ear, Qin Feng’s face changed abruptly.

Unexpectedly, a mishap had occurred at this very moment.

His mind stirred, and a strand of golden light immediately appeared on his body, slashing at the horn like Sword Qi, attempting to sever the more than five-foot-long horn.

Contrary to his expectations, the horn was incredibly hard. The sharp Ruyi Golden Light failed to cut through it, only leaving a hair-thin mark amidst sparks flying everywhere.

Fortunately, the elder was unsteady on his feet. Struck by that blow, the horn fell from the elder giant’s hands, thwarting any further attempts to sound the horn.

However, Qin Feng knew that his intervention had come slightly too late, as the sound of the horn had already traveled far. Before long, those giants chasing Fire Lizards and searching for children outside would likely return to the valley to aid the tribe.

Although Qin Feng had not killed any giants in the tribe, he had stolen the tribe’s Divine Artifact and Holy Fire and was now even digging up the Divine Tree in the tribe. How could the returning giants spare him?

Qin Feng beckoned with his hand, transforming the strand of Ruyi Golden Light into a rope that coiled around and flew the horn into his hand. He then waved his sleeve, storing the horn into his Storage Bag, and no longer paying attention to the elder giant, he spared no expense of his True Yuan, propelling the Red Lotus Sword to unleash a series of devastatingly sharp Sword Energies, cleaving open the ground. Subsequently, the petal-like Flying Swords started spinning, slicing open fissures in the ground below.

Behind him, the elder giant staggered to his feet, took up his several zhang-long walking stick, and attempted to smash it at the tiny figure of Qin Feng. Just then, Qingluan emitted a clear cry, opening its mouth to spit out a burst of flames, knocking the old giant back to the ground.

The White Dragon also roared, its massive dragon claw pressing on the old giant’s belly with such a crushing force that it almost caused his intestines to burst out.

The old giant’s eyes bulged, nearly spewing out a mouthful of old blood as he watched the White Dragon’s ferocious roar and the menacing mouth full of sharp teeth that was almost upon him. He wisely stopped moving, knowing that any further struggle would surely result in his head being crushed by those fearsome jaws.

Down below, the Red Lotus Sword encountered resistance and suddenly slowed its progress. Qin Feng furrowed his brow, his body flashing with yellow light as he directly burrowed into the ground, heading towards the Spirit Root. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Three hundred zhang underground, at the spot where the Red Lotus Sword had stalled, Qin Feng released his Divine Sense to carefully scrutinize the area several times before he finally discovered the cause of the Red Lotus Sword’s delay.

The main root of the Spirit Root was connected to an underground Fire Vein. Due to the prolonged release of heat over time, the surrounding soil and rocks had become incredibly hard. Even with the Red Lotus Sword’s ability to slice through iron like mud, it could not easily cut through these rocks.

Qin Feng had no time to delay. He beckoned with his hand, and petals of the Red Lotus Sword fell into his grasp, no longer appearing as their original refined form but instead transforming into a five-foot-long sword.

The blade was a deep red, with each petal forged into scale-like patterns that looked both beautiful and imperious.

This was one of the transformation modes of the Red Lotus Sword, composed of three hundred and sixty Flying Sword petals. It could easily combine in any manner, creating endless variations and allowing the Sword Master to change its shape freely.

Qin Feng held the sword with both hands, his True Yuan surged out like money was no object. The sword radiated a fierce Red Lotus Sword Energy, emitting a dazzling Sword Light, and its sharp Sword Qi easily pierced deep into the ground.

“Slash!”

Qin Feng yelled a ferocious shout, swinging the sword horizontally.

With a thunderous boom, the Sword Qi directly severed the incredibly hard rocks in front of him, and even the roots of the Divine Tree reaching into the Spirit Vein were cut off.

The roots of the entire Divine Tree stretching deep into the ground could not all be dug out by Qin Feng. He only needed to ensure that the main root remained and the life force within the Divine Tree persisted. He believed that under the nurturing of the dense Fire Spirit Energy within the Demon Refining Pot, this Divine Tree would definitely be able to regrow new roots.

Whoosh…

Suddenly, just as Qin Feng severed the rocks in front of him, a blazing wave of fiery breath surged upward, escaping through the cracks created by the Sword Qi slashing the rocks.

“This is…”

Qin Feng’s complexion suddenly changed, then he revealed an ecstatic expression!

He felt a rich origin aura emitting from the flames.

Qin Feng had never seen what the Fire Origin looked like, but when his Divine Sense touched this aura, he instantly understood what the Fire Origin was.

This was the source of all flames, and it wouldn’t be an overstatement to call it the Fire Mother, as the Fire Origin contained only the purest fire power, similar to half of the Chaos Fire Element Principle, capable of accommodating all fires and evolving myriad flames.

If it were merged into the Pure Yang Fire within Qingluan, Qingluan’s Pure Yang Flames would achieve Great Success in a very short time.

If it were merged into the Ghost-Faced Spider’s Soul Burning Demon Flames, it wouldn’t be many years before the Spider could cross the tribulation and become a Demon Immortal.

Even the Netherworld Ghost Fire within the Ruyi Golden Snake could refine this Fire Origin without any conflict.

Being able to accommodate all flames and also merge with all flames, this was the true nature of the Fire Origin!

King of All Gods, Odin, had seized two of the largest clumps of the Fire Origin from the Fire Kingdom, and the reason he could evolve the sun and moon was also due to the infinite transformation abilities of the Fire Origin, forming the blazing sun and the gentle moon!

No wonder in this remote location, near the edge of the Fire Kingdom, there were Spirit Roots growing; it turned out to be influenced by the Fire Origin, thus growing into Fire Element Spirit Roots!

Overjoyed, Qin Feng thought this was indeed like finding what one seeks without effort, despite breaking through countless metal shoes.

Previously, when he entered the Fire Kingdom, he had coveted the Fire Origin, but lacking the strength of the King of All Gods and dared not face the Fire Giant ancestor Surtr. He didn’t even dare to enter deep into the Fire Kingdom, fearing that he might be incinerated by the blazing flames of the core region before even seeing what the Fire Origin looked like.

Unexpectedly, as he prepared to dig out this Spirit Root, he encountered this pleasant surprise!

“Hehehe…”

A few strange laughs unconsciously escaped Qin Feng’s mouth, his laughter revealing pride and the excitement of finding treasure.

However, just when he was delighted, sudden crisp calls came from the ground, followed by Qingluan and the White Dragon informing him through their Spirit that giants had appeared outside the valley.

Qin Feng’s face changed, and he communicated with Qingluan through their Spirit, looking outside through Qingluan’s eyes, indeed seeing several giants with tall bodies outside the valley.

He recognized that they were the same giants who had chased after Qingluan and had not all returned, one still far behind, carrying two children on its back.

Seeing this, Qin Feng felt slightly relieved.

As long as it wasn’t the large troop returning from hunting the Fire Lizard, the Spiritual Beasts under his command could handle just these few giants.

Thus, Qin Feng issued a command, ordering the numerous Spiritual Beasts to stand in front of the valley, blocking those giants outside, buying him some time.

Then, Qin Feng stopped paying attention to the outside and turned his Spirit back to focus on the clump of Fire Origin.

The Fire Origin within the Spirit Vein wasn’t much, merely a clump about the size of a foot square, far from comparable to the two clumps that evolved into the sun and moon.

However, Qin Feng wasn’t picky; for him, encountering this Fire Origin was already an enormous opportunity.

He wasn’t just a Cultivator who practiced Fire Element Techniques; if he could merge this clump of Fire Origin into himself and refine it, he might be able to prove his Dao and achieve immortality within a few years.

Unfortunately, time was critical, and he couldn’t slowly collect and refine it. Moreover, he had yet to comprehend the Fire Principle, so taking it directly into his body could be more than he could handle.

Thus, Qin Feng thought for a moment and decided to use the Red Lotus Sword to capture the Fire Origin. He would figure out how to deal with it after leaving the area.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

In an instant, the Red Lotus Sword split into petal-like fragments that slid into the crevices of the Fire Vein, rushing towards the clump of Fire Origin and transforming into a lotus. It enveloped the Fire Origin completely.

But, to Qin Feng’s surprise, as soon as the Fire Origin made contact with the Fire Principle inside the Red Lotus Sword, it began to merge with it, integrating completely with the sword.

“Uh…”

Qin Feng’s fingers trembled slightly.

He was sure that although the spiritual nature within the Red Lotus Sword had just revealed a desire to devour the sword, he had suppressed it, so this fusion was definitely not caused by the Red Lotus Sword but was a voluntary integration by the Fire Origin itself.

This situation only happened because he didn’t understand the unique properties of the Fire Origin, which would transform and merge upon contact with other Fire Principles.

Unfortunately, even now that Qin Feng understood the properties of the Fire Origin, it was already too late to change anything.

He was somewhat frustrated. If he had known, he would have used another treasure to capture the origin without causing such a big blunder.

After all, the Red Lotus Sword was a heritage treasure of Taiyi Mountain. If, in the future, Biluo Five Domains were to lead an expedition into the Void Ten Thousand Realms under the leadership of top-level powers from Grandmaster Ancestor Taixuan, the conflicts and grievances between the Beast Taming Sect and Taiyi Mountain would have to be set aside. For a long time to come, a sect-wide war would unlikely erupt; they might even face the same enemies on the same battlefield.

By that time, if top-level powers personally intervened, the sect would need to consider the bigger picture and require him to return the Red Lotus Sword to Taiyi Mountain.

Qin Feng was psychologically prepared for this unless a true disciple of Taiyi Mountain surpassed him in Dao cultivation and cultivation level by taking the title of Chosen Son in this trial, as it would be difficult for a cultivator of the same level to defeat him and take away the Red Lotus!

He wasn’t a cultivator who disregarded the bigger picture either. As a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, he obviously had to consider the sect’s interest. Moreover, since he hadn’t focused on the Sword Dao, he wasn’t too concerned about the whereabouts of the Red Lotus Sword. It was merely an Immortal Sword that had dropped in grade. Besides, he had already obtained the inheritance of the Red Lotus Sword Immortal.

But now that the Fire Origin had merged with the Red Lotus Sword, things were different.

This was an opportunity hard-earned through great risks. How could he easily hand it over to someone else?

Hundreds of years ago, the Red Lotus Lineage of Taiyi Mountain ventured into dangerous territories to seize the treasures needed to repair the Red Lotus Sword. Not only did they return empty-handed, but it also led to the decline of the entire Red Lotus Lineage, leaving only Chu Youhong, an Elder of the Purple Mansion Realm, severely injured and barely escaping back to the sect.

What Taiyi Mountain failed to accomplish after such heavy losses was now about to be completed by Qin Feng. As the Fire Origin began to merge into the Red Lotus Sword, Qin Feng sensed the sword’s spiritual nature crazily enhancing, and even the Power of Laws became stronger than before.

In other words, once the Fire Origin completely merged with the Red Lotus Sword, the sword would not only reclaim its former glory but its power would also become even stronger!

Having such a great opportunity taken away by the sword, how could he willingly return the Red Lotus Immortal Sword to Taiyi Mountain?

Although he hasn’t cultivated the Sword Dao, it doesn’t mean he wouldn’t want to possess a powerful Immortal Artifact.

Even his master, Ning Wuxu, had an Immortal Artifact to protect himself before attaining immortality, and even after proving his Dao, he didn’t solely rely on his cultivation and spiritual beasts. The Immortal Artifact, Pill Furnace, still played a crucial role in his hands. How could Qin Feng not know the significant advantages a powerful Immortal Artifact could bring him?

With his thoughts racing, he decided then and there that this Immortal Sword would be his treasure from now on, and no mediation would change that. He acknowledged the importance of seeing the big picture, but Taiyi Mountain could also make concessions for this.

If it were just the original Red Lotus Sword, giving it away wouldn’t matter much, just a top-grade Spirit Treasure Level heritage item, nothing too regrettable.

But now, it was not possible!

Unless Taiyi Mountain could provide sufficient compensation, offering treasures stronger than the Immortal Sword and better than the Fire Origin he had lost, otherwise, there would be no discussion.

If they wanted the Red Lotus Immortal Sword, they had to obtain it based on their strength!

Just as he had originally seized the Red Lotus Sword, Taiyi Mountain could now attempt to take it back. If they were unwilling to pay the price and their Sword Cultivators of the same level lacked the strength to defeat him, they could continue to feel aggrieved!

After making his decision, Qin Feng immediately reached out, summoning the Red Lotus Sword from the Fire Vein, sensing that the Fire Origin within was rapidly merging with the Red Lotus Sword. He narrowed his eyes and with a swift motion of his hand, he drew most of the recently captured Spiritual Fire from the Demon Refining Pot into the Red Lotus Sword, leaving only a bean-sized flame in the stone basin.

This was the Holy Fire guarded by the Flame Giant Tribe for tens of thousands of years, possessing immense might. Since he had decided to make the Red Lotus Sword his treasure, he naturally wanted to enhance the power of this Immortal Sword at this time.

As for the flame left in the stone basin, it could serve as a Fire Seed, which could still be cultivated and strengthened in the future by continuously introducing various Fire Element resources.

Normally, to infuse the Spiritual Fire into the Red Lotus Sword would require a long time of refining, but now with the addition of the Fire Origin, everything became simpler. The Spiritual Fire did not need to be directly infused into the Red Lotus Sword; it merely needed to merge into the Fire Origin.

Even the powerful Spiritual Fire, at this moment in front of the Fire Origin, was as docile as a cat, with its spirit not resisting at all, blending into it.

Qin Feng sensed that the Fire Origin was still merging, a twinkle flashing in his eyes, and suddenly a huge dragon head appeared behind him, opening its mouth to emit a ghost fire.

He allowed the Ruyi Golden to separate a part of the Netherworld Fire from within him and also merge it.

He then stretched out his finger, and the Red Lotus Sword transformed into a streak of light, instantly piercing through three hundred zhang of earth and arriving above ground.

The White Dragon and the Death Curse Crow, upon his command, immediately ceased their guard at the front of the valley and turned to exhale a stream of flame into the Red Lotus Immortal Sword.

Boom!

Having gained two more flames, the mass of Fire Origin inside was finally exhausted and completely merged with the Red Lotus Sword.

If it weren’t for the Fire Origin to mediate, he wouldn’t dare to recklessly infuse various Spiritual Fires into the Red Lotus Sword, as it would only disrupt the power of laws within it, possibly causing the sword artifact to drastically lose power and lose all chance of restoring to its original state.

Now that the Fire Origin had mediated, it was capable of integrating these fiery characteristics into one, greatly enhancing the power of the Red Lotus Sword. The only regret was the limited amount of Fire Origin; otherwise, he would definitely have let Qingluan and the Ghost-Faced Spider try to infuse their Lifebound Spiritual Fires as well.

However, with these gains, it was already enough. Watching the Red Lotus Immortal Sword slowly rotate in the void tens of zhang above the ground, it seemed that its transformation into an Immortal Sword was merely moments away.

But after waiting for a moment, the semblance of the Red Lotus still did not transform into an Immortal Sword; it seemed to be lacking a bit of something.

Qin Feng furrowed his brows, then realized in a flash of thought—the treasure, having suddenly received so many benefits, was struggling to digest them all and needed time to settle.

Even ordinary weapons needed to be tempered, let alone a sword about to ascend to an Immortal Sword.

“Tempering?”

Qin Feng’s spirit stirred, immediately recalling the time when the Red Lotus Sword was engulfed by the Netherworld.

Speaking of tempering, was there a better place than the Netherworld for the Red Lotus Immortal Sword?

At that time, although the Red Lotus Sword underwent some mutations, its power was not diminished at all. Clearly, this Immortal Sword had great malleability, and it also shared a significant affinity with the Netherworld Water!
