Chapter 1159: Unparalleled Sword Inten (1/2)

t

Fei Lengyi thought for a long time before saying, “I’ll work with you for the time being, but I will not lower myself to your level.”

Smiling, Jin Liangqi said, “This is good. Everyone will be satisfied with this. However, there is only one problem: all the Geomasters are dead. It will be difficult to enter the Blood Sword Sovereign’s cave, which is deep underground.”

“There is no need to go to all that trouble. We will just work together and break apart this mountain range and the ground,” Bing Xuejian said in a calm and casual manner.

Jin Liangqi hesitated and said, “Attacking together is not difficult. However, we will end up exhausting a lot of Law Energy, which is not exactly a good thing.”

Bing Xuejian revealed an expression of disdain. Then, he pulled out the Ice Blood Sword and said, “I’ll be the main attacking force. You all can simply a.s.sist from the side.”

After that, he turned around and hacked down on the tall mountain range with his sword.

A scarlet sword light flickered on the sword, looking like a large pillar of light connecting the sky to the ground. It even contained an unparalleled, bone-chilling sword intent, which made everyone’s hair stand on end.

Several quasi-Emperors thought to themselves, This Bing Xuejian’s sword soul must have reached seventy-percent comprehension at least, a Great Perfection sword soul. As for his will of ice, he already raised it to its limits and perfectly merged it with his sword soul; there are no weaknesses.

Before the shocked gazes of the many quasi-Emperors, this scarlet sword light chopped the entire mountain range in half. Then, the snowy mountain crumbled with a loud noise.

The collapsing snowy mountain triggered a chain reaction, instantly setting off avalanches rumbling everywhere. The ground within fifty kilometers trembled endlessly like an earthquake.

Fei Lengyi, Jin Liangqi, and the others made their moves after this, attacking together. They pulled up the ground that was under the mountain range.

Incredibly huge clumps of dirt floated in the air, covering the sky. Dust flew everywhere along with snow. The entire place turned chaotic.

After the chaos settled down, the mountain range no longer existed, replaced by an enormous ten-kilometer-deep pit in the ground. A half-exposed cave could be seen at the bottom of the pit, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+” Many figures flashed, speeding towards the cave. It went without saying that it was the entrance to the Blood Sword Sovereign’s cave.

After that, the thousands of quasi-Emperors trailing the Consummation quasi-Emperors, intending to gain some benefits, immediately followed at their heels. In that instant, everyone disappeared. The originally lively snowy mountain was gone with not a single living person in sight.

After a while, two figures—one male and one female—appeared at the edge of the enormous pit.

The male was dressed in white, and his appearance looked delicate. He emanated an indescribable loneliness and pride. He gave the feeling of being colder than ice despite his expressionless countenance.

The female was as pretty as a flower, as clear as ice, and as clean as jade, even purer than the white snow. She possessed an appearance that could bring down a kingdom, looking like a fairy and radiating a very natural aura. As she stood in this snowland, she looked extremely charming.

Ordinary men would not dare to look her in the eye, lacking the courage to gaze directly at that heavenly face.

Naturally, this pair was Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun. After they realized that there were half-step Martial Emperors interfering with the search for the cave, they became much more cautious. They did not charge forward in the front line. Instead, they followed behind everyone and watched how the situation unfolded.

The two had seen the earlier scene.

“Things are getting increasingly complicated. With the unexpected appearance of two half-step Martial Emperors, the difficulty of obtaining the Life and Death Art has increased greatly.”

Although Yue Bingyun did not look optimistic, she did not have a desperate expression. Instead, she just commented on the increased difficulty.

Xiao Chen looked at Yue Bingyun and prompted, “Now that we’ve reached this point, shouldn’t you tell me what your trump card is?”

She smiled and replied, “You will naturally find out when the time comes. I still owe you for the Heavenly Origin Pill. I will definitely put in my full effort to help you to obtain the Life and Death Art. So rest a.s.sured.”

Since Yue Bingyun said that, Xiao Chen did not push the matter. He looked at the dark pit and suddenly frowned just as he was about to descend. “There is a b.l.o.o.d.y stench!”

“I can smell it too. However, isn’t this normal? There are those who are not strong enough but still want to try and gain some benefits. It would be hard to avoid losses.”

Xiao Chen shook his head and replied, “It is not normal. The amount of blood lost is really not normal; it is much more than when someone dies. Otherwise, the b.l.o.o.d.y stench in the air would not be this strong.

“This place is weird. We should be more careful when we enter.”

Xiao Chen took the lead, flying towards the cave while holding his Lunar Shadow Saber.

When the two arrived at the dark cave entrance, the b.l.o.o.d.y stench became even more oppressive, nearly suffocating and unbearable.

After they walked some distance, precious stones that gave off light appeared on the ceiling of the cave, relieving the darkness. The walls on the left and right were very smooth with clear marks of carving. As the two went further in, they started to see some vague scenes depicted on the walls. These should be the casual handiwork of the Blood Sword Sovereign.

These scenes were mostly of sword dances.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and touched the person depicted in the carving. A strong sword intent entered his mind through the sculpture. It was like the person there came to life and charged at him.

Xiao Chen quickly let go and retreated a few steps. The lightning saber soul in his sea of consciousness came out with a thought and crushed the sword intent coming from the painting.
