Chapter 1729: Five Overgods (2/2)

He did not walk quickly, but he would cross a great distance with each step. He arrived before the Overgod of the Yubing clan with just a few steps.

“It’s the ancestor of the Ling family from the Swordseeking province, Ling Hougong…”

“Heavens, another Overgod…”

“Duke Hou was a subject of the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian in its founding. It’s said that he went to war with the divine king before founding the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian in this large expanse of land. The divine king bestowed a region to duke Hou, which became the Swordseeking province of the thirty-six provinces…”

“Duke Hou has devoted his life to the sword, becoming infatuated with it. As a result, he changed the name of the province he came from to the Swordseeking province. The Ling family controls the entire provincial city, and they don’t have to pay taxes to the royal city either…”

“It’s all because Ling Hougong was a subject of the kingdom during its founding. There are over a dozen Overgods in our Divine Kingdom of Pingtian, but there is less than a handful of Overgods who can enjoy Ling Hougong’s treatment…”

The hunchbacked old man looked up and glanced at Ling Hougong. He said steadily, “Is there any use in coming early? Haven’t I still been blocked outside as well? Godking Duanmu’s abilities really are great. Even when you stand at the entrance, you can’t tell there’s anything here.”

“I’m guessing Godking Duanmu hid his dwelling in space and protected the entrance with powerful formations. However, since there are formations, attacking it will definitely lead to a response. Let me try,” said Ling Hougong. With a crisp thrum, the sword on his back was drawn. He wielded it in one hand, and his presence completely changed. The figure of a huge sword seemed to condense around him as he directly slashed out.

Ling Hougong’s Laws of the Sword had already surpassed Sword Origin and reached Sword Spirit.

The slash caused the origin energy in the surroundings to fall into disarray. A sharp sword intent filled the surroundings as if even the air had sharpened.

All the Gods gathered in the surroundings retreated. Although Ling Hougong had directed his slash at the space, the sword Qi that permeated the surroundings still made them shiver.

However, even with Ling Hougong’s slash, the entrance to Godking Duanmu’s dwelling failed to appear. There were not even any pulses from any formations.

“The entrance to the dwelling is too well hidden. There’s nothing I can do,” Ling Hougong sighed gently. If it were not for Bing Lou who had told him where the entrance to the dwelling was located, he would have even believed it was just ordinary space.

“Hahaha, none of you have entered, so it looks like we’re not late.” At this moment, another loud voice rang out. Three figures approached the region rapidly. The tremendous presence they gave off had reached the level of Overgods as well.

“Feng Bule, Guhun Xue, You Jin, you’ve come at the perfect time. Let’s see if you can open the entrance,” Ling Hougong’s eyes immediately lit up.

These three figures who flew over were the other three Overgods from the five great provinces of the divine kingdom. They were Feng Bule of the Feng family, Guhun Xue of the Guhun clan, and You Jin of the You family.

Aside from You Jin, who was a gray-haired old man, the other two both seemed to be in their twenties. One was male, while the other was female. Feng Bule was dressed in white robes. He seemed handsome and elegant. Guhun Xue, on the other hand, was an alluring beauty.
