Chapter 66: Inner Demons? Unfit to Exist in This World?
Ye Chengfeng originally wanted to take out the replica of the peerless sword to take a look.
Suddenly he felt dizzy and unconsciously sat cross-legged.
The others in the secret room did not notice anything unusual about Ye Chengfeng.
At this moment, Ye Chengfeng appeared in a chaotic space.
A dark figure, almost identical in appearance to him, appeared before him.
"We've finally met, Ye Chengfeng!"
Ye Chengfeng was puzzled. The dark figure that looked exactly like him but had extremely indifferent eyes aroused his suspicion.
"Could this be my inner demon? No way, how could something like an inner demon exist in the world of Joy of Life!"
"I am not your inner demon, but a product unique to this world, and not something a martial artist of your level should possess."
"What do you mean?"
Ye Chengfeng discovered that in this place, he could not hide any of his thoughts from the other party.
Moreover, Ye Chengfeng found the man's words somewhat mysterious.
"Simply put, only Grandmasters can generate a consciousness like mine, and when Grandmasters break through, they completely merge with it!"
"You understand the original trajectory of this world; you should understand that these grandmasters are devoid of humanity!"
However, after the other party had said so much, Ye Chengfeng did not ask any further questions and just looked at him.
At this point, Ye Chengfeng had basically guessed what had happened.
"You're my inner demon, aren't you? After saying all this, have you been going through my memories ever since you were born?"
When Ye Chengfeng heard Ye Chengfeng's words, he was stunned.
"That shouldn't be the case. He can't read my mind, so how could he know what I'm thinking? How could he know I'm lying to him?"
His doubts were quickly resolved.
"Well, thinking about it, it makes sense. My experiences over the past thirty years haven't really been anything to brag about, but I love reading novels. The novels I remember are so wonderful, you'll definitely be tempted to read them."
Ye Chengfeng remained silent, his inner demons echoing his own words. Just as Ye Chengfeng had said, his life before his transmigration had indeed been too uneventful.
Moreover, the inner demons, which spanned only over thirty years, were read in a very short time.
The inner demon was born after Ye Chengfeng comprehended the sword intent.
This situation can be called "Sword Intent Transformed into Demonic Power"!
The information that the inner demon told Ye Chengfeng was all deduced by the demon after reading too many novels and combining it with the plot of Joy of Life.
Ye Chengfeng then lightly snapped his fingers.
The originally chaotic space suddenly transformed into a paradise filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
"I've acquired a legendary sword, a replica of an unparalleled masterpiece, but it lacks a sword spirit. Are you interested?"
Ye Chengfeng waved his hand gently, and a pavilion appeared. Ye Chengfeng gestured for the inner demon to sit down.
"You actually want me to become a Blade & Soul spirit?"
"That's right."
"Aren't you afraid I'll turn your precious sword into a demonic sword?"
"In my hands, you have no chance of becoming a demon sword."
The inner demon fell silent.
Why did he use language to confuse Ye Chengfeng after Ye Chengfeng entered the consciousness space?
Naturally, it's because the inner demon clearly knows the gap between him and Ye Chengfeng.
For a demon to possess a host's body, it needs to lose faith before it can succeed.
Alternatively, if the host experiences fear, this can also make the inner demons even stronger.
What if the host is extremely confident and has no fear in their heart?
All that's left is deception.
The inner demon knew that Ye Chengfeng had already figured out who was the master of this consciousness space.
At this moment, Ye Chengfeng only needed a single thought to destroy him.
"I despise sword cultivators like you the most! How can your willpower be so strong!"
"Aren't you a demon born from sword intent? Don't you understand?"
"Of course I'm not going to cultivate swordsmanship. If I did, wouldn't I have even less of a chance of winning?"
The inner demons, feeling depressed, drank a glass of wine.
"Your inner demon is quite interesting. I promise you I will treat you well after you become a sword spirit."
The inner demon's already dark face turned even darker.
Seeing that the other party was still somewhat resistant, Ye Chengfeng did not intend to waste words with him.
With a thought, his inner demon was instantly condensed into a ball of black light.
At the same time, Ye Chengfeng withdrew from the consciousness space and returned to his body, whereupon he received the peerless sword.
A black orb of light flew out from between his eyebrows and merged into the peerless sword.
Whether it was due to the influence of inner demons or not, the peerless sword underwent a drastic change in appearance after merging with them.
Its appearance has changed dramatically.
It didn't become more beautiful; instead, it looked like a black iron spike.
"Hmm? There's this change too? It suits my low-key personality. With this thing and a different outfit, I could totally cosplay as Wu Zhu!"
When Ye Chengfeng circulates his internal energy, countless precious swords float around him.
Therefore, Fan Ruoruo and the others did not notice that Ye Chengfeng suddenly had a sword in his hand.
"Huh? What's going on? After merging with the inner demon, the sword's spirituality hasn't increased?"
Ye Chengfeng was puzzled. He knew that the inner demon possessed all his memories, and even if it had transformed into a sword spirit, it shouldn't be behaving this way.
Little did he know, sword spirits could not possibly be born in this world.
The current situation is that the inner demon has merged into this sword, but it is essentially sealed away, rather than becoming a sword spirit.
"Fine, at least it's forged from Xuan Iron. Let's give you a new name. Since it's formed by fusing with inner demons, let's call it the Xuan Soul Sword!"
Now that Ye Chengfeng's cultivation has reached the ninth rank, it's time for him to seek revenge against Emperor Qing.
Moreover, he had previously promised Fan Ruoruo that he would go with her to Fan Xian's wedding.
"Ruoruo, let's set off for the Qing Kingdom tomorrow!"
"Brother Chengfeng, now that you've finished your training, if it's too dangerous, we don't have to go."
Fan Ruoruo is still as understanding as ever.
The reason she was conflicted was because Ye Chengfeng had told her a lot of things.
For example, Emperor Qing is that mysterious Grandmaster.
If they return to Qing Kingdom and Emperor Qing attacks them, they will have no ability to resist.
"It's alright. Emperor Qing doesn't know that we know he's a Grandmaster, and we won't be going there openly."
This time when Ye Chengfeng went to Qing Kingdom, he planned to take only Fan Ruoruo and Xiao Lan with him.
Both he and Xiaolan are ninth-rank officials, so they can definitely protect Fan Ruoruo.
As for Zhan Pianpian and Ye Ling'er, he planned to send them back to Northern Qi.
Wasn't Zhan Doudou always trying to win him over?
Ye Chengfeng was originally a person who disliked trouble, so he always refused Zhan Doudou's attempts to win him over.
But times have changed. Since Emperor Qing is not giving us a chance, what else is there to say?
"In the future Battle of Mount Dong, it doesn't necessarily have to be Si Gu Jian and Ku He who die; it could also be Emperor Qing!"
Ye Chengfeng had another purpose in wanting to continue participating in the storyline: to meet Ye Liuyun.
Ye Chengfeng wanted to try and see if he could win over Ye Liuyun.
Ye Chengfeng was 50% confident about this matter, and if Fan Xian agreed to help, the chances of success would increase by 20%.
After Ye Chengfeng had made arrangements for things in Dongyi City, he set off with Xiao Lan and Fan Ruoruo.
This time, with three people on one horse, the speed won't be too slow.
They arrived in Kyoto three days before Fan Xian's wedding.
