”Do the two of you know how the Sword Prison came about?” After a long while, Shang Hegao suddenly asked.
Pang Hong and Wei Zidao looked towards Shang Hegao even though Wei Zidao had the highest cultivation level while Pang Hong was the strongest here. In actual fact, the most experienced person was Shang Hegao and he was also extremely shrewd. If it wasn’t for luck, the Great Sword Path might really not be able to force Shang Hegao into the Sword Prison.
Shang Hegao used his finger to point upwards before saying in a deep voice, ”During the War of Gods, the Sword Prison was an inheritance left behind after the war. Rumours were that a peak grade sword dao expert had fallen here and after this sword dao expert perished, the Sword Prison was formed…”
Shang Hegao paused at this moment before lowering his voice till only the three of them could hear, ”This was just like the Gods Tower, Yong Ying’s Immortal Domain’s Lifeless River and even the Broken World: a treasure left behind by the ancient experts. The Lifeless River had the Breath of Hongmeng while there are endless sword qi here. Everyone, try imagining if…”
Shang Hegao spoke till this point and he seemed to have understood something as his expression changed drastically.
Together with Shang Hegao, Pang Hong and Wei Zidao’s expression changed too. Clearly, they have thought of whatever Shang Hegao just thought of.
The three all of them stood up at almost the same instance and before anyone could speak, an Immortal Reverent was standing outside the entrance as he reported, ”Revered Lord, we have noticed that for the past 24 hours, there were no sword qi for a full 22 hours. For the last 2 hours, there were only a some scattered sword qi around.”
”Let’s go!” Hearing the news of this Immortal Reverent, Shang Hegao shouted as he darted out without any hesitation.
At almost the same instance at which Shang Hegao darted out, Pang Hong and Wei Zidao rushed out too. Seeing the three Revered Lords dashing out without any hesitation, the Immortal Reverent hurried to follow them out.
With this motion, the entire Vine Mountain of Safety seemed to be woken up as many cultivators, who had no idea what was happening, rushed outside too.
…
Concurrently, a group of four came to a halt on the periphery of the desert which Mo Wuji circled out. The uniqueness of these four people were that all of them were carrying a long sword on their back and the person walking in front was a skinny middle age man. Behind him was a young woman who wasn’t considered to be delicate looking but she did look soldierly. The person at the back was an extremely boorish looking man.
”Senior Grand Uncle, this place looked like there is a grand array,” The one speaking was a skinny young man with yellow face as he was actually carrying a bamboo sword.
The middle age man who was leading the way nodded his head before praising, ”Fan Wa has been improving quite a lot recently to be able to notice a grand array here. Indeed, there is definitely a grand array installed here. If I didn’t guess wrongly, this grand array should have been installed by Senior Mo.”
”This Sect Head Mo is truly impressive because so many people wanted to come to this desert in the past but didn’t manage to stay long. Sect Head Mo arrived and immediately decided to stay here,” That soldierly woman commented.
”Indeed,” The middle age man replied, ”There are many experts in the Sword Prison but how many can install Grade 6 immortal array like Senior Mo? The truth was that we have been half a year late in deciding to rely help from Senior Mo. I blame it on my lack for foresight which was never as good as Senior Nie Chongan and Jian Mingcheng.”
After saying this, the middle aged man sighed as his tone was slightly melancholy.
The woman shook her head, ”Senior Grand Uncle is not worse than others but because you knew that the four of us were the remaining few members of the Tian Ji Sect. If we were to perish here, the Tian Ji Sect could be forever gone so Senior Grand Uncle’s every move was extremely cautious.”
”Zhen Kui, no more mentioning about the Tian Ji Sect in the future, only Sword School,” The middle age man said sternly.
”Yes,” The woman hurried to answer.
The middle age man sighed once more as he didn’t continue on the matter before saying with a clear voice, ”Sword School’s Su Zi'An requests to meet Sect Head Mo.”
A moment later, the grand array opened up in front of them and a clear plaza appeared in front of everyone as a man skinnier than Su Zi'An walked out.
”Su Zi'An greets Immortal Friend Fei,” Even though Fei Ling’s cultivation level was slightly lower than Su Zi'An, Su Zi'An still bowed respectfully to greet him.
He started to regret because he should have came over to seek protection from Sect Head Mo earlier. Su Zi'An had seen how devastated Fei Ling was and even though Su Zi'An didn’t seek help from any of the three primary forces in the Vine Mountain of Safety, he had watched everything that happened between the three forces.
Fei Ling offended Pang Hong and had escaped the Vine Mountain of Safety with devastating injuries on him. It could even be said that he was merely a skeleton on the run but after just this period of time, other than his eyes, Fei Ling looked just like any other healthy cultivator. One must know that they were in the Sword Prison because even if they were outside the Sword Prison, his recovery shouldn’t have been this rapid.
