The golden spirit formation gate slowly revolved. Like a divine light descending from the sky, it appeared in front of Xing Jue and illuminated the crowd. Xing Jue had seen many spirit formation gates before, but it was the first time he had seen one that was golden in color.
Although he was unable to use his Soul power to sense the uniqueness of the spirit formation gate, Xing Jue was certain that it was not a simple gate.
"Xing Jue, although you are very powerful, and although you can use your Soul power after entering the tomb to unleash your full strength, I must remind you that the Souldevouring Edge is definitely much more terrifying than you can imagine."
"But I have to remind you that the Souldevouring Edge is definitely much more terrifying than you can imagine."
Just at that moment, Soulmaiden suddenly spoke to Xing Jue with a serious expression. Looking at Soulmaiden's eyes, Xing Jue seemed to be able to sense another meaning.
"Senior Soulmaiden, could it be that you …" Xing Jue couldn't help but tightly furrow his brows. He already knew what Soulmaiden was trying to express to him.
"That's right. Back then, I died in the hands of the Soul-Devouring Blade. Although I used all my strength, the Soul-Devouring Blade didn't fight me seriously. So I don't know the weakness of the Soul-Devouring Blade. The only thing I can tell you is that it's very strong!"
"However, although I cannot tell you what level of strength the Souldevouring Edge is at, I can tell you something else."
"Actually, the current true master of the Souldevouring Tomb is the Souldevouring Edge," Soulmaiden said gravely.
"The Souldevouring Edge is the master of the Souldevouring Tomb?" Hearing that, Xing Jue couldn't help but be shocked. At that moment, Xing Jue's opinion of the Souldevouring Edge completely changed.
Although Xing Jue knew that the Souldevouring Edge was very powerful, it was only a spirit weapon in the end. But if it was as Soulmaiden said, that the Souldevouring Edge was the master of the Souldevouring Tomb, then the Souldevouring Edge would truly be quite extraordinary.
After all, the Souldevouring Tomb was the sacred land of the Souldevouring Clan. But even so, even though generations of the Souldevouring Clan could enter the Souldevouring Tomb, they were still restricted by the tomb. The one who set the restrictions was naturally the master of this place, the Souldevouring Edge.
"Punishment, regarding the identity of the Soul Devourer Blade, other than the Soul Devourer Clan members who died here, no one knows. This is also a secret that only we know."
"Originally, I could not reveal this matter to you, but now that I've revealed it to you, it is equivalent to committing a capital crime."
"However, if you can defeat the Spirit Devouring Blade and make it your Spiritual Weapon, then you will replace it and become the true owner of this place."
"At that time, the rules of this Soul Devouring Ancient Tomb will be rewritten by you. Not only will we be able to continue living here, you will also be able to control all the treasures in the Soul Devouring Ancient Tomb." Seeing the change in Xing Jue's expression, the Soul Maiden reminded him again.
"Don't worry, Senior. I will do my best."
Hearing this, Xing Jue could not help but feel warmth in his heart. An indescribable sense of gratitude welled up in his heart. Then, he once again bowed to the Souldevouring Clan senior to express his gratitude. Although it was only a small reminder, Soulmaiden was risking her life for it.
"Mhm, I believe you can do it."
"Don't waste any more time. Go, we await your triumphant return!"
Soulmaiden used her delicate hands to hold onto Xing Jue's arms and helped him up. The faint smile on her beautiful face showed that she had placed great expectations on Xing Jue.
"Senior, I, Xing Jue, will definitely not disappoint you."
Seeing that, Xing Jue no longer hesitated. With a turn of his body, he blended into the golden Spirit Formation and disappeared. Only the thousands of gazes from the Spirit Devouring Clan were focused on the Spirit Formation.
"Lady Soulmaiden, do you think that Xing Jue has any hope of defeating the Souldevouring Blade?"
After Xing Jue entered the boundary, the thousands of Souldevouring Clan members arrived behind Soulmaiden. At this moment, their gazes were still unwilling to shift away from the boundary. It was clear that they were afraid that the only descendant of the Souldevouring Clan would fail.
"Xing Jue's strength cannot be underestimated. Within the Souldevouring Clan, he is the only one that I can see the shadow of big brother Hun Ming. But from a certain point of view, this Xing Jue seems to have something that big brother Hun Ming doesn't have. As for what it is, I'm unable to say for sure."
The Soul Maiden's gentle gaze never left the golden enchantment. As her lips curved up, she gave Xing Jue a great affirmation.
"......"
After hearing Soulmaiden's evaluation, the thousands of Souldevouring Clan members involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air. They knew exactly what kind of person Hun Ming was. He was the publicly acknowledged number one expert of the Souldevouring Clan, and it was said that he was the first person to step into the Saint realm in the Martial Heaven Continent.
Yet, Soulmaiden said that Xing Jue was stronger than Hun Ming in certain aspects. In other words, in her eyes, Xing Jue was the most talented person in the Souldevouring Clan.
In addition, Soulmaiden was Hun Ming's younger sister. The two of them had been together for over twenty years. If even she said such a thing, then those who had never met Hun Ming were even more convinced.
Afterwards, everyone shifted their gazes towards the slowly disappearing Spirit Formation. However, at this moment, there was an additional strange colour in their gazes. It was as if they had seen the light of dawn.
* buzz *
When Xing Jue stepped into the boundary gate, he naturally had no way of knowing Soulmaiden's evaluation. The instant he stepped into the golden boundary, he felt a powerful suction force tightly wrap around him and guide him forward.
When the irresistible binding force disappeared, Xing Jue discovered that he was in another space. In other words, it was another world.
Looking at everything around him, Xing Jue couldn't help rubbing his eyes. He deeply doubted whether this was a dream or not. However, when he examined everything before him again, Xing Jue firmly believed that this was not a dream, but a real world.
"Beautiful, what a beautiful place."
After firmly believing that everything in front of him was real, Xing Jue couldn't help but sigh in admiration. At that moment, the ground beneath Xing Jue's feet was not black soil, nor was it white rocks, nor was it a palace forged from gold. Instead, it was a stretch of white clouds that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The white clouds surged and churned, yet they gave off the same hard feeling as the surface of the earth. However, what was different from the surface of the earth was that the white clouds fluctuated between high and low, constantly drifting about. Even when Xing Jue stood still, his body would drift along with the changes in the white clouds.
However, what surprised Xing Jue the most was that there were countless mountain peaks standing on top of the white clouds nearby. The mountain peaks were continuous, reaching straight into the blue sky. However, there were no white clouds in the blue sky. Instead, there were slowly flowing rainbows. That's right, rainbows. Seven-colored light filled the sky and slowly flowed about. It was extremely beautiful.
As he gazed at the beautiful scenery, Xing Jue seemed to have forgotten about the worldly disputes. Instead, he was immersed in the beautiful scene before him, enjoying the comfortable feeling he had at that moment.
"Could that be the Soul-Devouring Blade?"
However, when Xing Jue was looking at the surrounding environment, his expression suddenly changed because at that moment, Xing Jue's gaze was attracted by a strange object in the distance.
That object was located at the top of the mountain in the distance. As it was too far away, its shape was rather blurry. However, even so, its huge body and unique dark color allowed Xing Jue to recognize that it was a giant sword, a black giant sword that was as huge as a mountain.
The giant sword was inserted into the mountain and emitted a dense black gas. The black gas slowly revolved around it, and even the rainbow light in the clear sky gathered above it.
It was like the overlord of this world, the king of this place, and the only ruler standing in the mountain range. Because of this, the first impression that it gave Xing Jue was that it was the Soul-Devouring Blade.
Swoosh.
Suddenly, Xing Jue's figure leaped and turned into a ray of light as he flew toward the direction of the Soul-Devouring Blade. The moment he saw the Soul-Devouring Blade, the sense of danger that filled Xing Jue's heart returned once again. Now that Soul Slash had obtained the Saint Stone, he could break through to the Battle-Saint level at any time. Therefore, Xing Jue had no time to waste.
Along the way, Xing Jue discovered that there were many strange auras hidden in the surrounding mountain range. Not to mention some Upper Grade Pills and Upper Grade Treasures, there were even many Spiritual Weapons.
At that moment, Xing Jue finally understood why the Soul-Devouring Ancient Tomb was like a bottomless treasury. It was because there were countless treasures here.
However, right now, Xing Jue was not moved by any of the treasures. His eyes were fixed on the black giant sword that was constantly enlarging. He only had one goal at that moment, and that was to defeat the Soul-Devouring Blade.
As long as he defeated the Soul-Devouring Blade, he could obtain control of the Soul-Devouring Ancient Tomb and become the owner of this place. By then, all the treasures here would belong to him.
Xing Jue was extremely fast. He arrived at such a distance in the blink of an eye. However, at that moment, Xing Jue did not directly fly toward the Soul-Devouring Blade. Instead, he stopped at a place not far away from it.
At that moment, Xing Jue was standing in the air as he stared at the black giant sword that was not far away with a sharp gaze. His resolute face was filled with a dignified expression.
At that moment, Xing Jue could clearly see the Soul-Devouring Blade. He could also feel the powerful aura of the Soul-Devouring Blade.
It was an extremely gorgeous giant sword. Although the body of the sword was dark in color, its shape was indeed beautiful. The body of the sword was engraved with all kinds of strange runes. Overall, it was quite similar to Soul Slash's Black Curse Longsword. However, the Soul-Devouring Blade was more domineering.
Although the Soul-Devouring Blade was inserted into the mountain range at that moment and did not move at all, Xing Jue could feel that it was floating. It was as if a person was breathing and it was full of spiritual energy.
