'Oh?' The old man said indifferently.
He had just casually come up with a reason, the goal being to obtain the Bloodsucking Sword.
The Bloodsucking Sword was a legendary demon weapon in the universe.
There was once a man named Bloodthirsty Demon Lord, who wielded the Bloodthirsty Sword. At the pinnacle of the twelfth level, he could withstand several moves from a powerful being. Beyond the twelfth level, there was a realm below the powerful, known as half a step towards the powerful.
At half a step towards the powerful, one could contend head-on with powerful beings and not be outmatched.
After breaking through to the realm of great power, he even killed three great power experts in a row, making a name for himself in the universe.
It wasn't until the Bloodthirsty Demon King fell that the Bloodthirsty Sword came into people's sights. Only then did people realise that the Bloodthirsty Demon King's achievements were not the result of practising any magical skills or his special physical constitution, but rather the result of this Bloodthirsty Sword.
The Bloodthirsty Sword also got its name from the Bloodthirsty Demon King.
It is said that before the Blood-Sucking Demon King obtained the Blood-Sucking Sword, he was just an ordinary nobody. After obtaining the Blood-Sucking Sword, he quickly became strong and eventually achieved such success.
Whoever obtains the Blood-Sucking Sword may become the next Blood-Sucking Demon King.
Unfortunately, the Blood-Sucking Demon King fell because he fought a powerful star beast, and the whereabouts of the Blood-Sucking Sword are unknown.
Unexpectedly, it has appeared here.
Looking at the Bloodsucking Sword in his hands, a spark of excitement flashed in the old man's eyes.
He had reached the realm of half-step great power for hundreds of thousands of years, and had never been able to break through to the realm of great power.
If he could use this Bloodsucking Sword, he might be able to break through to the realm of great power.
After all, the Bloodsucking Demon King had relied on this to break through to the realm of great power.
Moreover, after breaking through, one's strength would far exceed that of an ordinary great power expert.
These two points are a great temptation for him.
It is even far greater than the Golden Beast.
After all, it is still unknown whether the Golden Beast can break through to the realm of great power.
If it cannot break through, it will just be a pet beast at the pinnacle of the 12th level.
Although it is not weak, it is still inferior compared to a true great power.
That said, even if the Golden Beast breaks through, how can its own strength break through and increase significantly?
However, he must use it with caution. It is said that if this divine and demonic weapon is not used properly, it is easy to lose one's mind.
The Bloodthirsty Demon King was not actually the first owner of the Bloodthirsty Sword.
After the Bloodthirsty Demon King's demise, some people investigated.
The results showed that the Bloodthirsty Sword had many previous owners before the Bloodthirsty Demon King.
Their early development was similar to that of the Bloodthirsty Demon King, but in the end, many of them fell into killing, either dying from a loss of control or provoking a powerful enemy.
Only the Bloodthirsty Demon King broke through to the realm of great power.
Some say that the Bloodsucking Demon King's battle with the Star Beast was also influenced by the Bloodsucking Sword.
Others say that the Bloodsucking Demon King broke through to the realm of great power and had already shaken off the influence of the Bloodsucking Sword. After all, the minds of great powerful people are very strong and difficult to influence and control by external factors. The Bloodsucking Demon King simply wanted to absorb the essence of the Star Beast's blood, but did not expect that the Star Beast was so powerful and ultimately fell.
Some people say that the Bloodsucking Sword doesn't actually affect people, but its power is so great that ordinary people can't resist the temptation.
They become self-absorbed and obsessed, and that's what causes them to go mad. It's impossible to know for sure what really happened.
But apart from the Bloodsucking Demon King, everyone else who obtained the Bloodsucking Sword, apart from the few who died in accidents, has developed normally.
Many have reached the level of a Level 12 cultivator, and several have reached the late-stage or peak level of Level 12. Most of these people had mediocre aptitude before, so this shows just how powerful the Bloodsucking Sword is.
The old man did not directly kill the person to take the sword.
On the one hand, he did not want to affect his spiritual cultivation.
On the other hand, he wanted to see what was going on with the young man who had used the Bloodsucking Sword.
This way, he could also learn from the young man's experience when using the Bloodsucking Sword.
However, listening to Lin Yun's words, he still used his spiritual energy to probe into the Bloodthirsty Sword and take a closer look.
'Huh? Three spirits?'
The old man whispered the next moment.
In fact, the moment he obtained the Bloodthirsty Sword, he faintly used his spiritual energy to probe into it, and faintly detected the appearance of three spirits within. However, at this moment, his perception was clearer.
Two of the spirits seemed very different from the other, and did not seem to be the spirit of the Bloodsucking Sword itself.
Could it be that these two spirits are the two friends the young man was talking about?
The old man thought to himself.
It should be so. He had already investigated and found that there was no other space inside the God-Devouring Sword, and no normal person could enter the Bloodsucking Sword.
'You let us go!'
'You give the sword back to your brother!'
At this time, Xiaobai and Xiaolan sensed the old man's probing and also anxiously transmitted their voices.
'Eh?'
The old man was surprised.
These two spirit bodies actually have such high intelligence?
"No, the aura of these two spirit bodies, I seem to have sensed it somewhere...'
The next moment, the old man's face suddenly changed, and he said in a doubtful manner.
He began to recall quickly.
He vaguely felt that the place where he had sensed the aura of these two spirit bodies should be a very important place.
'Spiritual body... aura... where exactly was it...'
The old man muttered, as images flashed through his mind.
The half-step great power's memory was still very strong.
However, he still recalled for several seconds.
Lin Yun watched anxiously.
On the other side, Mingdu had already run far away.
Fortunately, the peak level 11 robot on his battleship seemed to have received Mingdu's order and quickly retreated, otherwise, he would really be anxious to death.
As for the Golden Beast, he wasn't really worried.
First, he had only known the Golden Beast for a short time and they had only fought together once.
Second, the Golden Beast was ultimately just a Star Beast, and many people said that Star Beasts were cunning and difficult to tame. Just now, they had the same enemy, and if that battle ended, he was not sure if the Star Beast would turn against him.
Third, judging from the way the old man easily captured the golden beast, it would be very easy to kill it. Perhaps the old man's intention was the same as Mingdu's, to subdue the golden beast.
A golden beast that had been subdued was still very valuable.
Then, his biggest worry was only Xiaobai and Xiaolan.
Judging from the old man's appearance, the possibility of him wanting to regain the Blood Sword was very slim.
The value of the Blood Sword is enormous.
How could this old man not be tempted? He is not that naive!
Although, the old man's words are very clear!
Now, he just hopes that the old man can release Xiaobai and Xiaolan from the Blood Sword.
He is afraid that the old man will take an interest in Xiaobai and Xiaolan and then keep them.
Or, the old man may not be able to release Xiaobai and Xiaolan from the Blood Sword.
