Just as his fist was about to strike Lu Tianfeng, Lu Tianfeng casually summoned the Black Dragon Treasure Sword into his hand. He instantly activated it, and the sword, once surrounded by dark energy, now radiated golden light, appearing immensely powerful. At this moment, the Black Dragon Treasure Sword had truly revealed its true form.
The Black Dragon Token also flew back into Lu Yang's hand, instantly nourishing his body. The injuries he had sustained from the Five Elements Mountain person's punch were healing at an extremely rapid pace.
"You can actually control the Black Dragon Sword? It seems I was mistaken to take out the Black Dragon Sword!"
The Five Elements Mountain person roared. Though his face was obscured, it was easy to imagine his expression had turned ashen. He clenched his fist once more and smashed it towards Lu Tianfeng.
Lu Tianfeng's cultivation was at the Half-step Divine Realm, still a significant gap from the Five Elements Mountain person. However, with the spirit artifact like the Black Dragon Treasure Sword in his hand, he was able to hold his own against the Five Elements Mountain person. Even though the Five Elements Mountain person's power was immense, capable of commanding the might of heaven and earth with every move, the Black Dragon Treasure Sword, with a single slash, shattered the Five Elements Mountain person's supreme might.
The two fought for dozens of rounds, yet neither gained the upper hand.
Meanwhile, Lu Yang's body, nourished by the Black Dragon Token, had already recovered to its peak state. Though he couldn't activate the Crimson Flame Battle Armor, Lu Yang's physical body had become incredibly powerful.
"Father, I've come to help you!"
Lu Yang shouted, holding the Black Dragon Token, and joined the battle.
With Lu Yang's assistance, the combined might of the Black Dragon Token and the Black Dragon Treasure Sword pushed the Five Elements Mountain person onto the defensive. Even though the Five Elements Mountain person had reached the Divine Realm cultivation, both the Black Dragon Token and the Black Dragon Treasure Sword were imbued with spiritual energy. Under the combined activation of Lu Yang and Lu Tianfeng, their power was unleashed to its fullest, overwhelming even a Divine Realm expert.
With a "puff," Lu Tianfeng's Black Dragon Treasure Sword pierced into the Five Elements Mountain person's body. Strangely, not a drop of blood flowed out, as if the sword had entered cotton.
"Not good, this Five Elements Mountain person's body has been modified long ago; it's no longer flesh and blood!"
Lu Tianfeng's face changed drastically, and he immediately leaped backward.
"Heh heh, Lu Tianfeng, you actually know these secrets. It's too late!"
The Five Elements Mountain person instantly split into five, all attacking Lu Tianfeng. The Five Elements Mountain person's leader grabbed the Black Dragon Treasure Sword. Without it, Lu Tianfeng was no match for them and was soon struck by a spirit artifact. Had Lu Yang not arrived in time, Lu Tianfeng might have fallen into Taihu Lake.
"Black Dragon Token, Sword Slash!"
Lu Yang roared and unleashed a sword strike, forcing the five figures back.
"Father, are you alright?"
Lu Yang asked his father excitedly.
"I'm fine. Quickly retrieve the Black Dragon Treasure Sword, otherwise, we will both die here today!"
Lu Tianfeng immediately told Lu Yang.
"Understood!"
Lu Yang nodded and instantly put his Yuan Ji Shu into practice, attacking the leader of the Five Elements Mountain people. The leader of the Five Elements Mountain people wielded the Black Dragon Treasure Sword and fought Lu Yang. At this moment, with the true qi of the Black Dragon Token and the Black Dragon Treasure Sword intertwined within him, Lu Yang had gained the means to control the Black Dragon Treasure Sword. As one of the Five Elements Mountain people swung a sword towards Lu Yang, Lu Yang reached out and caught the Black Dragon Treasure Sword. Instantly, blood seeped into the sword, causing it to tremble violently.
"What is happening?"
The Five Elements Mountain person, holding the Black Dragon Treasure Sword, gradually found he could no longer grip it. The sword trembled violently and instantly broke free from the Five Elements Mountain person's grasp, flying into Lu Yang's hand.
"So, with the blood of our Lu family, one can establish a connection with the Black Dragon Treasure Sword!"
Lu Yang realized this and immediately established a connection with the Black Dragon Treasure Sword. In his mind, a subtle link appeared, that of the Black Dragon Treasure Sword. Within the sword embryo, a small, sleeping black golden dragon was visible, though it was extremely weak, appearing as if it might extinguish at any moment.
"Could this be the sword spirit of the Black Dragon Treasure Sword?"
"For so many years, the sword spirit of the Black Dragon Treasure Sword has been dormant, not awakened? If the sword spirit of the Black Dragon Treasure Sword were to awaken, how powerful would this sword be? Not to mention Divine Realm experts, even those above the Divine Realm could be annihilated with a single strike!"
Lu Yang exclaimed in surprise.
But just as Lu Yang was contemplating these matters, the Five Elements Mountain people attacked him once more. Their assault had reached a fever pitch, with a single objective: to kill Lu Yang.
After Lu Yang had destroyed all their previous magic artifacts, the Five Elements Mountain people produced new ones. This time, they brought out seven flying swords, which emerged from a gourd and continuously circled the Five Elements Mountain people.
"Boy, you've forced me to use my ultimate treasure, the Guiyuan Sword Group!"
"This set has seven swords: Guiyuan Sword, Tianyuan Sword, Lingyuan Sword, Sayuan Sword, Lyuyuan Sword, Douyuan Sword, and Zhenyuan Sword!"
"These seven small swords were successfully refined by a legendary Earth Immortal, possessing immense power. With their appearance, no other sword in the world can compare. Boy, to die by the Guiyuan Sword Group is your fortune in this life!"
The Five Elements Mountain person cackled and instantly unleashed the seven treasure swords towards Lu Yang.
The seven treasure swords moved at extreme speeds, like streaks of light, their tips flashing with a cold golden gleam as they all attacked Lu Yang.
Lu Yang was also shocked to the extreme and immediately used the Black Dragon Treasure Sword and the Black Dragon Token in his hand to confront the seven swords. However, these seven swords were incredibly potent, being legendary flying swords. Even with the Five Elements Mountain person's mastery of them at only thirty percent, it was enough to force Lu Yang into a defensive retreat, with many wounds already inflicted upon him by the Guiyuan Sword Group.
"Kill again!"
The Five Elements Mountain person roared once more, and the seven small swords flew towards Lu Yang again, intending to kill him.
"Heavenly Law Manifestation, Body Protection Cloak!"
At this moment, Lu Tianfeng roared and tossed out an item. It instantly unfurled, darkening the sky and completely enveloping both Lu Yang and himself. No matter how powerful the Guiyuan Sword Group was, they could not break through this cloak.
"Such a powerful defensive equipment! Why didn't my dad take it out earlier?"
Lu Yang exclaimed excitedly upon seeing how effective the cloak was.
"What? Is that the Body Protection Cloak? I never expected this item to be in your possession!"
The Five Elements Mountain person roared with laughter upon seeing the formidable power of the Body Protection Cloak, which could withstand the attacks of the Guiyuan Sword Group.
