Chapter 3704: Absorbing Luck

"He won, he actually really won…"

"My God… he is only at the seventh level of the Heavenly King Realm, yet he actually won!"

"First place! How long has this kid been in the Biyun Divine Palace, and he's already become number one!"

"…"

The Disciples watching nearby all gasped in shock.

The Ancestor of Biyun Divine Palace and several Grand Elders quietly left; the battle just now had made them deeply remember this person, Xiao Fan.

Especially the power that erupted when the ancient sword was in Xiao Fan's hands; it could even instantly snatch away life force.

Terrifying.

Extremely terrifying.

They immediately understood why the Families that possessed the ancient sword in the past had all suddenly become powerful.

However, what kind of misfortune the backlash of the ancient sword would eventually bring… that point they were unclear about.

Xiao Fan looked at Wan Xuefeng and exhaled: "You are very strong…"

Upon hearing this, Wan Xuefeng spat out a mouthful of blood and glared at Xiao Fan through gritted teeth: "Damn it, if you didn't have the ancient sword, I wouldn't have lost!"

Wan Xuefeng never expected that the ancient sword, which was previously in Kong Xingjin's hands, would be so terrifying.

Even Kong Xingjin, who was watching nearby, didn't expect the ancient sword to be this terrifying…

At this moment, many people in their hearts began to mock Kong Xingjin; he clearly had such a terrifying Magical Artifact, yet he still lost.

Without a doubt, Kong Xingjin had inexplicably become a disgrace!

"Hehehe… if you and I were at the same Realm, do you think you could win?" Xiao Fan sneered and shook his head.

After speaking, Xiao Fan turned and stepped off the Arena, walked up to Feng Yuliu, and took her away from there.

According to his agreement with the Palace Master of Biyun Divine Palace, he had now become number one, and thus had the qualifications to participate in the Bodhi Dao Banquet…

Seeing Xiao Fan defeat Wan Xuefeng, Yuan Yanbin was so angry he gritted his teeth: "Damn it, damn it… he actually won…"

Yuan Yanbin didn't expect that Xiao Fan could actually defeat Wan Xuefeng.

It wasn't just Yuan Yanbin who didn't expect it; the others nearby didn't either, including Wan Xuefeng himself.

…

Xiao Fan did not go to Feng Yuliu's Immortal Cave; instead, after leaving, he parted ways with Feng Yuliu and returned to his own Immortal Cave alone.

Feng Yuliu also did not disturb Xiao Fan and silently returned to her own Immortal Cave…

After arriving at the Immortal Cave, Xiao Fan immediately asked the Artifact Spirit what exactly was going on with the ancient sword.

"My Lord, I haven't seen too many clues yet, only that it contains too much unknown power… and using this power requires paying a great price…"

The Artifact Spirit spoke slowly; he had been an Artifact Refiner in his lifetime and understood Magical Artifacts the best.

Furthermore, now that the Artifact Spirit had attached itself to the ancient sword, it could conduct a deeper exploration of it…

The Artifact Spirit told Xiao Fan everything it knew.

The power contained within the ancient sword seemed not to belong to the present, like power passed down from the ancient era…

And to activate this kind of power, besides consuming spiritual power, it also seemed to require consuming Luck.

This thing called Luck is ethereal…

Simply put, the ancient sword could unleash powerful strength entirely because of Luck, and it was precisely because of this relationship that the ancient sword could sever the life force of others.

"This Luck… what is going on with it?" Xiao Fan spoke slowly, seemingly understanding the origin of the name cursed sword.

"I'm not clear… at that time, I felt that your Luck, My Lord, was swallowed into the ancient sword, and that was why the ancient sword erupted with power…"

The Artifact Spirit also didn't know the truth behind it; it just stated its own sensations.

After some research by Xiao Fan and the Artifact Spirit, Xiao Fan roughly grasped the truth about the cursed sword.

This sword should be a Magical Artifact that existed back in the ancient times.

It could swallow the user's Luck to unleash powerful strength; it was also for this reason that it could easily sever the life force of others.

Likewise, as one's own Luck was swallowed, one's own Luck and the Luck of the entire Family would eventually become nourishment for the ancient sword.

This could explain why the Families that initially obtained the ancient sword were all very prosperous at first, but subsequently all perished.

Because their Luck had all been completely swallowed by the ancient sword…

It was also for this reason that after the Biyun Divine Palace obtained the ancient sword, they sealed it away and no one used it, so the Biyun Divine Palace was not affected.

"My Lord, it should be like this… This sword is strong, but it is also too sinister… I have investigated, and that Luck which was swallowed simply disappeared into thin air… It is not in the ancient sword at all." The Artifact Spirit spoke slowly.

"Not in the ancient sword? Where did it go!?" Xiao Fan was stunned.

"I'm not clear… It just disappeared, I can't sense even a trace of its aura."

One must know that the Artifact Spirit had already attached itself to the ancient sword and had now become a Sword Spirit.

Even it could not sense the whereabouts of the Luck, which showed that this matter was not ordinary…
