Lin Wu was almost on the edge of the seat as he watched the climax of the memory.
"Dang, this is way better than the dramas I've seen before. The real thing is way better than the CGI." Lin Wu said upon seeing the progression.
Hong Feng had tears in her eyes now that she looked at Mo Hei in front of her.
"I shall end this all… The Vermillion sect may not exist anymore, but I'll ensure what happened to you will never happen again. Whatever being… beast… thing that has taken over you, it shall never return!" Hong Feng declared, hear voice rumbling across the skies.
Lin Wu suddenly felt her aura rise by the sect. At first, she was only at the Shell initiation stage of the Dao Shell realm but it jumped to the Shell Expansion stage in less than five seconds and then directly broke through to the Dao Treading realm!
"Big words for someone that is going to die by my hands soon!" Mo Hei scoffed at the woman.
But just as he was about to act, he saw something that stirred his mind and made him shudder.
"That… how can it be?" Mo Hei said as he saw a dagger appear in the hands of Hong Feng.
Lin Wu also saw the dagger and found it to be rather unique. The dagger had a red crystalline blade on which several gemstones were embedded. It only had a single edge while on the other edge a serpent was carved.
The handle of the dagger was made out of some kind of polished bone and was carved with hundreds of complex runes, that even the system could not decipher.
"What is that system?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: The system is unable to analyze the runes and formations on the dagger due to limited input, but according to calculations it is likely to be an immortal tool.
——
Hearing the two worlds 'Immortal Tool' made Lin Wu's eyes go wide.
"An immortal tool… a true one at that…" Lin Wu muttered in surprise.
He knew how much Shirong was excited at gaining a Pseudo Immortal tool, which Lin Wu was disguising as or rather was still disguised at. Even at his current capabilities, Shirong considered him to be a sealed immortal tool.
Lin Wu didn't even know what a true immortal tool could do. Even the records and documents that he had seen till now didn't really do much justice to them as they merely describe some surface level abilities and such, in addition to the appearance of the immortal tools.
In this world, even a pseudo immortal tool was a powerful item that there were only a handful of. The appearance or creation of each pseudo immortal tool brought with it a great time of upheaval.
Lin Wu couldn't even imagine what kind of an uproar a true immortal tool would cause.
"Wait… but why can't the power be felt from the Dagger?" Lin Wu wondered.
But then he got his answer automatically as he saw what happened next.
Hong Feng held the dagger and looked at it with teary eyes. She then turned it around, holding the handle in a reverse grip as the blade of the dagger pointed towards her chest instead.
Mo Hei didn't know why but he was not feeling good. While he could not tell what the dagger in the hands of Hong Feng was, he felt strange seeing it. He himself was a formation master and should have been able to decipher the runes that were carved on it in less than a second.
But he found himself to be at a lost.
'It can't be an Immortal Tool, can it?" Mo Hei wondered.
The second thing that added to his shock was that Hong Feng had stabbed the dagger into her chest without hesitation. Mo Hei knew very well what self damaging actions like these meant… A sacrificial technique.
Sacrificial techniques were final gambits for cultivators which they only used in the moments of life and death. The stronger a cultivator was the more dangerous a technique could get. While Mo Hei was confident of being able to defend against many experts he did not dare to speculate about immortal tools.
He himself was at the Dao Treading realm and with the assistance, his new bloodline had provided him, he was confident of defeating even Immortal Ascension realm cultivators. Even if they had pseudo immortal weapons or tools, he would not be afraid either as he had his own trump cards to use.
But the woman in front of him, unnerved him. The bloodline that she had was something that repulsed his own and made him feel disgusted. He knew that whatever that bloodline was, it could possibly be comparable to his own, despite the fact that he detested every bit of it.
Just as he was thinking all this, Hong Feng moved.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Mo Hei shouted in fear.
"AWAKEN!" Hong Feng shouted as she stabbed the dagger into her heart.
As soon as the dagger was fully inserted into her heart, it started to glow. Rune upon rune lit up as a massive spirit Qi wave poured out from the dagger. Blood started to spill from her wound in the chest, but it did not drip down.
Rather, it was being steadily absorbed by the dagger. The gems that were embedded in it shone with a bright light and then suddenly fell dim.
"What have you done?" Mo Hei questioned, seeing the life draining from Hong Feng's body.
"Let… this… world… be… cleansed!" Hong Feng said with all her might.
As the final word spilled out of her lips, her entire body lit up with Vermillion flames.
~PIIIIIIIIII~
An earth shattering cry was heard coming from deep within Hong Feng's body as it started to float up. An illusory figure of a massive bird formed in front of her as it stared at her. Looking at the beast a smile appeared on her face.
"I'm sorry…" She muttered.
