After entering the city, Zong Shou released the God Refined Sword Spirit once more. With this half-step Divine Weapon leading the way, they proceeded forward.
However, the direction wasn't towards the palace in the center of the city but towards the east.
The east was where the sun rose …
"Speaking of which, 10,000 years ago when Xi Zi entered the Qin Emperor Tomb, he went to the altar to worship the heavens?"
Zong Shou guessed in his heart. However, he didn't dare to let down his guard.
At the same time, the 190 swords were still spread out a thousand feet around him. He also materialized the One Origin Soul Sword outside of his body.
After refining it, this soul sword used the Xiantian Purple Chenxuan Gold Energy as its foundations and was several times stronger than before.
However, Zong Shou had just refined it and the sword wasn't there yet. At this moment, it was still in the sword embryo state. However, this sword could barely be used.
At this moment, after it appeared, one could see a human shape that looked no different from Zong Shou driving the sword artifact.
This was Zong Shou's True Image Dharma but it was formed by his second soul.
The meaning of the second soul sword was like a clone, another Zong Shou.
Apart from nearly doubling one's strength, it had other uses.
As long as this One Origin Sword wasn't destroyed, then even if his soul was destroyed, Zong Shou could use this sword to revive.
He could even use an incarnation to do things for him from 10,000 miles away.
However, his Illusionary Spirit Sword Forging Technique wasn't completed and he didn't form a complete second soul. As such, he could only use it as a normal sword to increase his combat strength.
The biggest benefit was that he didn't need to be distracted to control it and he could still use 60% of the abilities of the sword technique.
As it was a King Path Sword, when this sword used King Path Martial Arts, Power would even surpass his main body.
Actually, to use this sword so early was already a little risky.
If he accidentally hurt his foundations, it would affect the quality of the One Origin Soul Sword in the future.
However, at this very moment, the dangerous situation in the Qin Emperor's Tomb forced him to use every bit of his strength to the limit.
Not only him, but also Shen Yuexuan, Osamu Hara, and Chu Xue.
Even Su Xiaoxiao took out a few immortal artifacts that were supposed to be kept a secret. With the help of the talisman, a small protective spiritual array was constructed around his body.
The deeper he went, the stronger the suppression of the Dragon Formation became.
It was simply another world. Outside of the original world's laws, a completely different set of laws had been created.
Zong Shou's expression became more and more serious. He roughly understood why the End Realm Saint Venerables 10,000 years ago feared the Qin Emperor so much.
In this world, no matter what kind of Celestial Treasure, what kind of army, no matter what kind of formation one had, one wouldn't be able to forcefully push one over the threshold of End Realm. At most, one could borrow various powers to buff one to Peak Saint Realm or half a step to End Realm.
Unless one was really strong and had billions of people under them, like the Lu Family where one Country Ruler could rule over 80 medium-sized worlds. Or like the Qin Emperor who had the entire Cloud World.
Apart from that, God Venerables could too. However, at the End Realm level, there were very few who weren't crushed by the thoughts of billions of people and didn't lose their minds.
This was why once one became a Saint Venerable and obtained the Undying Soul Body, one would be invincible. Apart from End Realm people and End Realm God Treasures, no one could go up against them.
A Country Ruler might be strong, but once they left the country, they were nothing.
However, the Qi Cultivators and Legalists that the Qin Emperor gathered found another way.
Other laws were set to restrict the power of End Realm under the laws they set.
Since no matter what, one couldn't step over the threshold of End Realm. Then, they would drag End Realm Saint Venerables down from the high and mighty peak!
As for this Dragon Formation, a part of it must have been the masterpiece of the Legalists back in the day!
With Zong Shou's guesses, in this place, the stronger one was, the higher one's realm, the stronger the suppression.
Simply put, the more one got used to the laws and structure of this region, the deeper one's grasp, the deeper one relied on it, and the more one merged with it, the more one would be restricted here.
This was why it wasn't that Zong Shou's cultivation was only Peak Celestial Realm, so the suppression wasn't that small.
The Late Spirit Realm Sword Intent that he grasped was the embodiment of his comprehension of Killing and Slaying Laws.
In this world that was pretty much pushed back and rebuilt, no matter how one adjusted, one could only reach Initial Spirit Realm.
This was why in Xianyang City, one's combat strength was reduced by 30%!
Each time one got close to the central palace, that feeling of helplessness became even more obvious.
If an End Realm Saint Venerable came here, they would be suppressed to Saint Realm.
Once they broke away from the Dao they relied on, there was a chance they would be wiped out.
"However, speaking of which, this Xi Zi Saint Venerable is really bold. He entered the tomb and wasn't afraid of being beaten to death by the 12 Copper Men? However, if he didn't have such a personality, he wouldn't have risked entering the Cloud World to get that Heaven Opening God Artifact. "
The Twelve Bronze Men and the Dragon Formation here were simply a match made in heaven.
For Xi Zi to take the risk to enter this End Realm forbidden zone, it definitely wasn't for a normal reason.
Zong Shou shook his head and retracted his gaze from the west towards Ahfang Palace.
He was filled with anticipation as he looked at the weird state of the God Refined Sword Spirit. His Master probably really left something in the tomb.
He didn't hope for anything that could increase his combat strength and turn the situation around. As long as Xi Zi left some clues regarding the 12 Copper Men, the Dragon Formation, Cang Shengdao's life or death, or the other treasures buried in the tomb, it would be fine.
At this moment, Zong Shou was still okay. He had Dual Meridian Body, Dual Soul Body, and his strength was pretty much endless.
Even if he maintained the Illusionary Heart Path and Life and Death Switch, he could barely hold on.
Su Xiaoxiao's forehead was covered in small beads of sweat. Using the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique in such a large area along with the suppression of the Dragon Formation was really tough on her.
Vital energy surged up and caused her face to turn red. However, Su Xiaoxiao did not complain. She did not even show any signs of weakness. Her determined expression was like she was saying that for her lover, she was willing to die from exhaustion.
Chu Xue couldn't take it anymore and casually tossed the Blood Moon Blade to Su Xiaoxiao.
At this moment, not only were Osamu Hara and Shen Yuexuan shocked, but even Su Xiaoxiao who caught the blade was at a loss.
In this Divine Weapon, there was half of the word 'borrow'. In her hands, she could forcefully borrow the Seven Emotions Baleful Force lingering in the city to maintain the Yuan Demon Seven Emotions Grand Technique.
However, how could such a God Weapon be given to someone so easily?
She looked over with a weird gaze only to see Chu Xue scoff. She casually tilted her head, "Don't misunderstand! I am just worried that there are too many corpses here and you won't be able to hold on and drag down Master. Even if you die, I don't care. "
What she meant was that she was worried about Zong Shou and not sympathizing with Su Xiaoxiao.
Then, Chu Xue asked curiously, "Why are there so many corpses in the city, both males and females? Did the Qin Emperor not only imitate Xianyang City, but also bury all the people in the city? "
Although there weren't any corpse armies on the streets, it wasn't empty.
There were many males and females within. Although the corpse energy was thick, their actions were no different from normal people.
It caused the interior of Xianyang City to look really prosperous. This was also the reason why Su Xiaoxiao found it so tough.
Zong Shou smiled when he heard this and didn't reply. Chu Xue, this brat, was tough on the mouth but soft on the heart.
However, at this place, it didn't matter whether or not the Blood Moon Blade was in her hands.
In this place, the restrictions on Chuxue should be the least.
That was because Chu Xue didn't truly understand the normal world. She didn't have any fixed ideas and just fought based on her instincts.
At this moment, even if a peak Saint Realm expert went to fight Chu Xue, he might not be her match.
"How is that possible?"
Shen Yuexuan said expressionlessly, "In the past, the Qin Emperor sent out 300 million felons to build this Qin Emperor Tomb. Afterward, most of them disappeared. At that time, people guessed that the Qin Emperor buried all of them to protect the secrets of the tomb. This was also one of the reasons why the world revolted after the Qin Emperor died. "
Just as they were talking, the five of them saw a green-robed Daoist walking towards them from the opposite side.
He looked young but the vengeful corpses around didn't notice him at all. His body was between real and illusionary, giving off an extremely sharp Sword Intent.
With just one look, Zong Shou recognized the identity of the person opposite him.
"Gongyuan?"
This person actually entered the Qin Emperor Tomb too!
From start to finish, Gongyuan focused on Zong Shou, there seemed to be flames burning in his eyes.
"Gongyuan has been waiting here for a long time! Why did Ruler only arrive now? What a disappointment … "
Every step he took was like the beating of a drum, striking at one's mind.
Every ten feet, the sword aura would become stronger.
A full 12 swords were behind Gongyuan, making it tough to measure his aura and position.
"Ruler's illusionary techniques are amazing! Along with the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique, it is perfect. Even I would have missed it if I didn't have a treasure that could lock down one's Spiritual Sense. How fortunate! How fortunate! Let's hope that we can end all our grievances in the Qin Emperor Tomb! What does Ruler think? "
When the last sentence was asked, a Sword Light that looked like it slashed down from the heavens tore through the void.
It was right in front of their eyes, slashing down on Zong Shou. However, the five of them were unable to see where the Sword Light was pointing at and where the sword body was.
It was switching between real and illusionary, Heaven Movement!
Zong Shou's Ten Extreme Imperial Dao Destruction Sword Formation was activated, giving out numerous Sword Energy and Sword Energy that sliced through the void. However, it only caused the Sword Light to stop for a moment before it was still the same.
However, Chu Xue also slashed out at the same time. Other people were unable to sense and confirm that it was the Sword Light.
She didn't care at all, the Sword Light was like rain, light and agile. A series of clanging sounds rang out in the air, actually forcing the numerous Heaven Evasion Child Swords to reveal their tracks and retreat. (To be continued.
