Chapter 2259 - 2260: Heavenly Punishment!

"This Spiritual Spring definitely has a connection to the Heavenly Dao Clan!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, "And Zi Feng is definitely related to the Heavenly Dao Clan as well!"

He gritted his teeth and continued to dive deeper; this seemingly shallow pool was unexpectedly deep.

Ling Feng felt as though he had nearly reached the bottom of this Floating Immortal Island, or had directly entered another special space.

In any case, after a long descent, Ling Feng finally saw Zi Feng at the bottom of the pool, working hard to pull something out.

It seemed to be a broken sword!

"Master!"

Zi Feng looked back at Ling Feng and urgently called out, "Master, come help me!"

Ling Feng fixed his gaze on the broken sword, momentarily stunned.

This sword gave him a feeling of familiarity, an almost bloodline-connected sensation.

Previously, only when holding the Ten Directions Annihilation did he experience such a feeling!

Could it be that this is also a Heavenly Weapon!

Heavenly Weapons are unique to the Heavenly Dao Clan, bestowed upon them by the Heavenly Dao Divine Pattern after awakening the Emperor’s Eye.

This was a special talent of the Heavenly Dao Clan; the strength of the Heavenly Dao Clan, and even their downfall, was inextricably linked to the existence of Heavenly Weapons.

(PS: As mentioned in previous Chapters, the Five Immortal Emperors coveted the Heavenly Weapons of the Heavenly Dao Clan, which led them to join forces against the clan. Not only that, but they captured the descendants of the Heavenly Dao Clan to sacrifice and refine the Heavenly Weapons. See Chapter 885 ’Heavenly Weapons!’)

And here, there’s actually a broken Heavenly Weapon?

Ling Feng’s eyelid twitched, he dove beside Zi Feng, reaching out to grab the broken sword!

In an instant, a towering silhouette flashed in Ling Feng’s mind, one person and one sword battling the heavens!

The sword in his hand was very similar to his Ten Directions Annihilation, but had another name.

Heavenly Punishment!

Ling Feng’s Ten Directions Annihilation could also be called, Punishing Heaven!

Heavenly Punishment! Punishing Heaven!

Ling Feng felt as if his mind was on the verge of exploding, a powerful will surged from the broken sword, sweeping across his entire Sea of Consciousness and Dan Tian Space as though autumn winds sweeping away fallen leaves.

Then, a special power seemed to gather from his limbs and bones, coagulating at the center of his forehead.

Divine Pattern!

A faint golden engravings shimmered on Ling Feng’s forehead, somewhat similar to Yeu Junyao’s Primordial Divine Patterns, but more complex and profound.

But the Divine Pattern only existed for a brief moment before dissipating again; Ling Feng vaguely felt as though his body had undergone some transformation, though it was not obvious.

Then, the broken sword, which Zi Feng had been unable to pull out despite exhausting all his Primordial Power, effortlessly slid out like a wooden stick in Ling Feng’s hand.

"So easy?"

Ling Feng paused for a moment, but strange things continued to happen; the broken sword quickly became scorching hot, seemingly growing attached to his hand, defying all attempts to shake it off.

Soon, the scorching broken sword melted into liquid iron, directly "drilling" into his body, and the Ten Directions Annihilation seemed to lose control, merging with the iron.

In the blink of an eye, the two swords fused into one!

Ten Directions Annihilation became somewhat shorter, while the Sword Edge bore new, peculiar engravings.

"Could Heavenly Weapons devour each other?"

Ling Feng was briefly stunned, plainly feeling a mysterious power dissipating rapidly from the pool.

He glanced at Zi Feng, who appeared to be just as bewildered.

"Never mind, let’s head up first!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, conceding that Yeu Junyao and the others had probably grown impatient while waiting above.

...

At this moment, Yeu Junyao paced the edge of the pool, quietly cursing Ling Feng under her breath.

The Despicable Donkey lay on the ground, contemplating deeply, "What kind of Spiritual Spring is this that even I, a Divine Beast, don’t recognize?"

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Yu and Xiao Hen stood silent on the sideline, each lost in their own thoughts.

Suddenly, a shocking ripple burst from the depths of the water, startling everyone as they collectively focused on the pool.

Yet the ripple quickly faded, and the pool returned to calm.

Just as the group anticipated a lengthy wait, a figure in white burst from the water.

Unmistakably, it was Ling Feng.

"Come down quickly and refine this Spiritual Spring before its Spiritual Energy completely dissipates!"

Ling Feng urgently beckoned Yeu Junyao and others; the pool contained Chaos Origin Power, which might be absorbed by Yeu Junyao and the others to benefit themselves.

Chaos Power is all-encompassing; in other words, anyone can absorb Chaos Power, but the amount varies.

"You brat, if we could go down, we would’ve done it earlier!"

The Despicable Donkey cursed, picking up a stone and furiously throwing it at Ling Feng.

Unexpectedly, instead of bouncing back, the stone was caught by Ling Feng’s hand.

It seemed the prohibition around the pool had vanished!

"Haha!"

Not being slow-witted, the Despicable Donkey immediately dashed into the pool upon realizing this.

"Wow, this Spiritual Spring really hits the spot!"

The Despicable Donkey laughed heartily as he absorbed the pool’s water, the Chaos Power transforming into Demon Essence within him.

In an instant, he felt a slight growth in his internal Demon Essence.

Soon after, Xuanyuan Yu and Xiao Hen also jumped into the pool, one activating Sword Intent, the other utilizing Divine Sense, both expressing euphoric delight.

This pool was truly mystical!

Finally, only Yeu Junyao frowned, casting a disdainful glance at the men and donkey in the pool.

More filthy men, and a nasty donkey; how unpleasant!

Yet ultimately, she couldn’t resist the allure of cultivation progress, and with gritted teeth, plunged into the pool as well.

The moment she entered, a soothing sensation permeated her body, enveloping the Divine Soul Origin, nurturing and strengthening it.

She even felt a strong urge to just sleep.

"Heavens, why does this spring water even fortify my Jiuli Divine Race’s Primordial Divine Fire!"

Yeu Junyao was nearly shell-shocked, yet she sensed her mind had ceased functioning, her entire being greedily absorbing the pool’s pure energy.

As time ticked away, the pool became increasingly translucent, its Spiritual Energy dissipating swiftly into the surrounding world following Ling Feng’s extraction of the broken sword.

Nonetheless, Ling Feng and his companions’ gains were undoubtedly immense!

Especially Ling Feng, despite his lowest cultivation, his rate of absorbing Spiritual Energy was remarkable!

In less than an hour, his cultivation skyrocketed from Heavenly Destiny Fifth Realm, soaring rapidly through Sixth Realm, Seventh Level, Eighth Layer!

Eventually stabilizing at Heavenly Destiny Ninth Layer!

Just one step away from becoming a Semi-Saint!
