Chapter 178 The Three Swords of Dugu (Fire)
"We...we definitely will. No setback can defeat us."
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Dugu Jianling... do you want to find all of your original forms?"
"...I don't want that. I just hope you find the Eight Swords, not the Nine Swords."
"Just because the ninth Dugu Sword is the Sword of Darkness? I also have the spiritual power of darkness! Let's not talk about that anymore, let's go find the third Dugu Sword—Fire." Yun Muhan flew towards the only volcano in Tianzhou, and the Dugu Sword quickly followed.
Yun Muhan and Dugu Jian streaked through the air like streaks of light, their destination being the only volcano in Tianzhou—Yanyu Peak.
In history, Yanyu Peak sealed the third Dugu Sword—the Fire Sword, whose power was enough to incinerate everything, making it the most ferocious of all sword spirits.
As they approached Fiery Prison Peak, the surrounding air grew increasingly scorching, as if even breathing could feel the burning flames.
Yun Muhan frowned, knowing that the challenge he was about to face was no small matter.
Dugu Jian remained unusually silent, seemingly deep in thought but unwilling to reveal it to Yun Muhan.
"Dugu Jian, do you really not want me to collect all nine swords?" Yun Muhan couldn't help but ask.
Dugu Jian remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "You brat, power isn't everything. Some powers, once mastered, may make it impossible to turn back."
Yun Muhan's heart stirred. He could sense Dugu Jian's worry, but his resolve remained unshaken. "I understand what you mean, but I must find it. It is my mission."
Dugu Jian remained silent, knowing that no amount of persuasion could change Yun Muhan's mind.
It could only silently watch over him, accompany him, and hope that he would not fall into darkness.
Yun Muhan and Dugu Jian finally reached the foot of Yanyu Peak. Standing at the foot of this volcano, they could feel the heat and power emanating from the earth's core.
Yun Muhan took a deep breath, adjusting his state, preparing to climb the volcano. His eyes shone with a determined light; although the road ahead was unknown, his resolve remained unwavering.
Dugu Jian followed closely behind, knowing that it had to help Yun Muhan fight against the true form of the Fire Sword.
As a sword spirit, Dugu Sword Spirit has a special feeling for the fire sword it is about to face. Its power surges within its body, ready to erupt at the critical moment.
As they climbed higher, the surrounding environment became increasingly harsh.
The crater erupts hot lava from time to time, and the air is filled with the smell of sulfur; every breath feels like inhaling flames.
Yun Muhan's physical strength was gradually depleting, but his will became stronger and stronger, and every step he took was full of power and determination.
Just as they were about to reach the crater, a powerful force suddenly surged from the ground, and the true form of the Fire Sword appeared.
It is like an inextinguishable flame, radiating suffocatingly high temperatures.
The sword of fire danced above the crater, each wave of it carrying destructive power, distorting the surrounding air with its presence.
Yun Muhan stopped and stared at the Fire Sword itself. He knew that the battle that was about to begin would be the most difficult challenge of his life.
He could feel the power of the Fire Sword, a kind of violent force that was almost impossible to resist, but it was also a target he had to conquer.
"Yun Muhan, are you really ready?" Dugu Jian's voice carried a hint of worry.
Yun Muhan gripped the Dugu Sword tightly, his eyes firm and resolute: "I am ready. No matter what I face, I will not back down."
The Fire Sword emitted a challenging roar, a sound like a volcanic eruption that shook the entire Fiery Prison Peak.
Its power began to gather, the surrounding air distorted due to the high temperature, and the firelight dyed the sky blood red.
The attack of the Fire Sword was as fierce as a storm, each swing carrying a high temperature and power capable of burning everything, heading straight for Yun Muhan.
Yun Muhan, relying on the power of the Dugu Sword, struggled to withstand the attacks of the Fire Sword. His swordsmanship was precise and swift, each swing embodying all his strength and will.
Despite being covered in wounds, there was no sign of retreat in his eyes. His will grew stronger with each battle, as unwavering as steel.
During the battle, Dugu Sword constantly guided Yun Muhan. It seemed to be connected with Yun Muhan's mind, telling him how to use sword energy to resist the attack of the fire sword and how to use the terrain to avoid the eruption of magma.
With the help of Dugu Jian, Yun Muhan gradually found a way to counter the Fire Sword Body.
He began to move more nimbly, using the terrain of Fiery Prison Peak to evade the fierce attacks of the Fire Sword.
His swordsmanship became even more formidable, each swing accompanied by a whistling sound as it cut through the air, clashing with the flames of the Fire Sword.
Yun Muhan leaped along the edge of the volcano, every movement brimming with power and determination. His eyes were resolute and profound; even facing a powerful opponent like the Fire Sword, he showed no fear.
The sword of fire attacked with increasing ferocity, but Yun Muhan's resistance grew stronger. His tacit understanding with Dugu Jian improved more and more, and their every move was almost perfect.
Yun Muhan began to counterattack, his sword light weaving through the firelight, searching for the weaknesses of the fiery sword body.
After a fierce battle, Yun Muhan finally found an opportunity.
Guided by Dugu Jian, he gathered all his strength and launched a fatal blow.
Dugu Jian drew a dazzling line of light in the air, striking the fiery sword body directly.
The fiery sword was finally defeated by this attack. Its flames gradually dissipated, and the spirit of the Dugu sword appeared in the Dugu fire. The power of the two began to merge.
After the battle, Yun Muhan sat exhausted on the ground, his body covered in wounds, but his eyes gleamed with the light of victory.
He knew this victory was hard-won, a tremendous test of his will and strength. He took a deep breath, savoring the tranquility after the battle, his heart filled with satisfaction at the victory and anticipation for the future.
