Hummmm— Yet, just as Chu Feng was about to surrender his body to the Evil God Sword, Chu Banruo formed hand seals and activated the formation once more.
In the next instant, that pillar of light merged into the earth again, and the sealing formation — stretching for miles, blazing with golden radiance — surfaced once more.
"I'm giving you my body. Kill this man right now."
As Chu Feng spoke, he ceased resisting the Evil God Sword's power. He was truly prepared to hand his body over to the Evil God Sword's control.
The reason Chu Feng was so desperate was that he did not want the elder of the Chu Heavenly Clan to succeed in releasing the sealed entity.
Chu Feng had a nagging feeling that the sealed entity was far more terrifying than the elder of the Chu Heavenly Clan.
He didn't know why the elder wished to unseal it, but Chu Feng was certain that the elder had no idea just how horrifying the sealed entity truly was — he was utterly incapable of controlling it.
If that sealed entity was released, catastrophe would be inevitable. That was why Chu Feng wanted to stop him.
But after making his request, Chu Feng discovered that the Evil God Sword did not respond at all. His body remained his own, uncontrolled by the Evil God Sword — yet he still couldn't command its power.
"Hey, say something."
Chu Feng called out loudly, though the words were never truly spoken aloud, so no one else could hear them.
But he knew perfectly well that the Evil God Sword could hear him.
However, the Evil God Sword was silent — as though it had vanished entirely.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM— At that moment, the earth below began to collapse. For miles in every direction, as far as the eye could see, the ground was caving in.
Deafening roars erupted one after another, shaking the heavens.
Billowing clouds of smoke surged skyward, and at a glance, those clouds blanketed the entire landscape, as though the world itself were about to crumble.
More importantly, even as this was happening, Chu Feng noticed that the golden light emanating from the sealing formation was growing fainter and fainter.
The sealing formation was about to disappear — and the consequences of that could easily be imagined.
"Such an enormous formation… just how massive is this sealed entity?"
The Queen followed Chu Feng's gaze, staring intently at the spectacle. The sight was simply too overwhelming. In all her time accompanying Chu Feng, this was the first time she had ever witnessed anything so spectacular.
This was the arrival of true apocalypse. The sky had not fallen, but the land itself had been utterly destroyed.
And all of this was happening simply because something sealed was about to be released.
"Hurry — give me your power."
Chu Feng couldn't help but urge the Evil God Sword again. He felt that he had to stop this before the entity was fully unsealed.
"What's the rush?" Finally, the Evil God Sword responded to Chu Feng. But unlike Chu Feng's urgency, the sword was perfectly calm. "That little old man isn't even worth killing by my hand. But this thing down there… it's not worth killing either, of course, but finishing it off… might actually entertain me just a little."
"You…" Chu Feng was left speechless.
So the Evil God Sword had done this deliberately — it had intentionally allowed the elder of the Chu Heavenly Clan to unseal the entity.
"You're confident you can defeat it?" Chu Feng asked, somewhat worried.
After all, the old cat's strength was unfathomable, and whatever it had sealed should be formidable as well.
And now, even before the entity had been fully released, the commotion was already this staggering. Chu Feng genuinely feared that the thing might be too powerful — that even the Evil God Sword wouldn't be able to contend with it.
"Hmph, brat — the fact that you're weak is your problem, but don't you dare assume that I'm as feeble as you."
"Just wait, and I'll show you exactly how powerful I truly am," the Evil God Sword declared.
Arrogant. Those words from the Evil God Sword were nothing short of supremely arrogant.
Had anyone else said something so brazen, Chu Feng would have dismissed it as empty boasting.
() But when those words came from the Evil God Sword's mouth, Chu Feng believed them. And in that belief, he also felt a sense of reliance.
He was keenly aware of how dangerous the Evil God Sword was, but in the current situation, it was truly his only hope.
If its strength was truly sufficient, then Chu Feng would have one more reason to believe he could protect his friends.
"How does a being like you end up trapped inside a sword — and how did you end up in the Martial Continent?" Chu Feng asked.
He was beginning to suspect that the Evil God Sword was not truly a sword at all, but rather some fearsome demonic entity that had been sealed within this cursed blade.
