After using his Origin Energy to stop the wound, Duan Lingtian who'd learned his lesson hurriedly coiled his Origin Energy around his hand and once again felt his way in.
This time, he withdrew three fragments at once.
These three fragments were slightly similar to Concept Fragments in appearance, but the surface of their bodies had strands of material aura that was like flames.
One of the fragments was completely jade green in color, and its surroundings seemed to flicker with jade green flames.
"Wind Profundity Fragment!"
With just a glance, Duan Lingtian who'd merged with the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu recognized this Profundity Fragment.
The other fragment was completely dark violet in color, and its surroundings flickered with violet flames. Lightning could be faintly seen within the flames.
"Lightning Profundity Fragment!"
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart as he realized his guess from before was correct.
The last fragment was completely translucent and emitted a fierce sword qi. It was precisely the Sword Profundity Fragment.
"These three Profundity Fragments are actually all third level Profundity Fragments … Looks like the White Clothed Sword Monarch was an extraordinary figure when he was alive."
Duan Lingtian guessed in his heart.
Three types of profundities had all been comprehended to the third level …
Such comprehension ability could be considered to be outstanding even amongst the numerous Martial Monarchs.
"My gains aren't bad."
Duan Lingtian put away the three Profundity Fragments into his Spatial Ring, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face.
But in next to no time, he restrained his expression. "I wonder how Xue Nai, Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold are now … Didn't the White Clothed Sword Monarch say that I can leave after obtaining the inheritance? Where do I leave from? "
Duan Lingtian looked around.
In the end, he noticed a secret on the cavern wall at the side.
On the right cavern wall, a protruding small rock had suddenly appeared since an unknown time.
Duan Lingtian didn't notice it earlier.
Duan Lingtian walked over and patted the small rock, and he noticed it could move.
Instantly, Duan Lingtian pressed the small rock down.
In the next moment.
Rumble! Rumble!
…
The cavern wall beside the small rock suddenly trembled, and in the next moment, it directly split open and collapsed.
Then, a stone door appeared and slowly rose.
A moment later, another pitch-black tunnel appeared in front of Duan Lingtian.
"This should be the exit."
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up and he walked straight in.
In his hand, a purple flame with copper edges appeared out of thin air. It was the Artifact Flame that he used for illumination.
If there was anyone who recognized this Weapon Flame, they would definitely be so angry that they would vomit blood.
Using a purplish copper edged Third Grade Artifact Fire to light up the room was simply a waste of natural resources!
However, Duan Lingtian did not care about this.
Not long after, Duan Lingtian reached the end of the tunnel.
At the end of the passageway was a closed stone door.
Dong! Dong!
Duan Lingtian knocked on the stone door. He found that the stone door was made of a special material. Even if a martial artist at the Profound Void Martial Stage or the Void Transformation Martial Stage wanted to break it with brute force, it would be impossible.
"There should be a mechanism here."
Thinking of this, Duan Lingtian began to look around.
In the end, Duan Lingtian found a small protruding stone on the wall beside the stone door.
"I wonder where the stone door leads to."
Duan Lingtian thought as he pressed his hand on the small stone.
In an instant.
Rumble! Rumble!
…
At this moment, Duan Lingtian found that not only was the stone door in front of him rising, but there was also a loud noise coming from the end of the tunnel behind him.
"This mechanism not only opened this stone door, but also closed the stone door at the other end?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian found that the stone door in front of him had been opened. The ground outside the stone door was also covered with a layer of gravel.
Duan Lingtian stepped out.
He found that the stone door he walked out of was also covered by a thick layer of cave wall.
When the stone door opened, the cave wall outside was shattered.
"Brother Ling Tian!"
Right at this moment, a familiar voice sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian looked over when he heard this voice, and only now did he notice a robust middle aged man walking over from afar, and the middle aged man arrived before him in a short moment.
"Dong Ming!"
Duan Lingtian recognized this person, and it was precisely the possessor of the first jade sword that he'd contacted with the jade sword that day, Dong Ming.
Bang!
Right at this moment, another loud bang sounded out.
Only now did Duan Lingtian notice that the stone door at the entrance of the tunnel he'd just walked out of had actually closed once more.
Dong Ming was shocked, and then he looked at Duan Lingtian and said with an envious expression, "Brother Ling Tian, I really envy you, you were actually able to enter the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure."
"You didn't enter?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned and couldn't help but ask.
Dong Ming laughed bitterly. "When I arrived at the end of the second level, there were people that had entered all 10 stairs … Only 10 people were able to enter the third level, and because I was already too late when I arrived, I missed it."
Duan Lingtian came to a sudden understanding, and only now did he recall that there seemed to be such a thing.
"This is …"
Duan Lingtian sized up the surroundings, and only now did he notice that this was the first level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Not far ahead of him, balls of grey and hazy mist were condensed high up in the sky.
That place was the entrance to the Sword Monarch's Treasure that was located at the depths of the sea.
The entrance to the Sword Monarch's Treasure was there.
"Where are the others?"
Duan Lingtian looked around the surroundings and only noticed Dong Ming, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"There are another six people like me that were unable to enter the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure … At this moment, they're probably still at the second level."
Dong Ming said.
This time, there were seven people that weren't fated to enter the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Duan Lingtian, Han Xuenai, the little gold mouse, and the two little pythons occupied a total of five spots in the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Besides that, only five spots remained, and when divided amongst 12 people, there were naturally seven people that didn't obtain anything.
"Why didn't you stay at the second level?"
Duan Lingtian asked curiously.
"In any case, I've already missed the third level, so there's no use in staying at the second level. So I returned to the first level … But since Elder Hu has entered the third level, I didn't come here in vain this time. “
As he finished speaking, Dong Ming was slightly excited.
"He entered the third level, what're you so excited about?"
Duan Lingtian's face froze.
Dong Ming said with a smile, "Brother Ling Tian, there's something you don't know … Before I came here, I'd discussed it with Elder Hu, and no matter what we obtained, we'll split it equally between the two of us."
"What you mean is … We have to split half of the treasures he obtained with you?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Yes."
Dong Ming nodded.
Duan Lingtian frowned. Ask that Elder Hu to split half of the treasures with Dong Ming?
Would he be so kind?
He didn't hold any hope.
"Why haven't Xue Nai and the others come out yet?"
Duan Lingtian chatted idly with Dong Ming for a while when he noticed Xue Nai, the little gold mouse, and the two little pythons hadn't appeared, and he couldn't help but frown as a wisp of worry appeared on his face.
"Brother Ling Tian, is the third level very dangerous?"
Dong Ming's heart jerked when he saw the worry on Duan Lingtian's face.
"It's not just dangerous, it's simply life-threatening …"
When he heard Dong Ming, Duan Lingtian recalled the scenes he'd encountered on the third level, and for a time, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear in his heart.
Dong Ming's expression went slightly grim when he heard this, and he said with slight worry, "I wonder how Elder Hu is now …"
If Elder Hu died on the third level, then he would have really come here in vain this time.
"Eh, Brother Ling Tian has returned."
Suddenly, a surprised voice sounded out from afar.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian saw six people heading straight towards him …
Amongst these six people, three of them had once received kindness from him.
On the way here, because the cultivations of these three people were comparatively low, it was difficult for the Origin Energy barriers they held up on the surface of their bodies to resist the pressure of the seawater at the bottom of the sea, and it was he who asked these people to take refuge on the back of the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger.
The cultivations of these three people were all fourth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists.
Presently, the three of them looked at Duan Lingtian with slight warmth.
On the other hand, when the other three people looked at Duan Lingtian, traces of a greedy sheen was mixed within the depths of their eyes.
Although it was concealed very deeply, Duan Lingtian still noticed it clearly.
The cultivations of these three people were all fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists.
Presumably, it was precisely because their cultivations were limited that they weren't able to arrive at the end of the second level in time and missed the quota to enter the third level.
"Brother Ling Tian, did you gain anything on the third level?"
One of the three people that were warm asked curiously.
"Not bad."
Duan Lingtian nodded with a light smile.
"Congratulations Brother Ling Tian."
The other two people congratulated Duan Lingtian repeatedly.
But in next to no time, Duan Lingtian noticed that the expressions of these three people froze, as if they'd suddenly thought of something.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian noticed that a sheen of conflict flickered in the depths of their eyes.
In the end, the sheen of conflict vanished and was replaced by greed.
The smile on Duan Lingtian's face didn't change, yet there was slight coldness in the depths of his gaze.
According to his guess.
These three people that were originally very warm to him ought to have received the voice transmissions of the other three people now, and they'd come to some sort of agreement.
The facts proved that Duan Lingtian had completely guessed the intentions of the other three people.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Lingtian was surrounded by six people.
"What're all of you doing?!"
The scene before him caused Dong Ming's face to go grim as he asked with a shout.
"Dong Ming, this matter isn't related to you. You better stay at the side … Otherwise, we'll kill you as well!"
One of the fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists glanced coldly and indifferently at Dong Ming as he threatened.
This person was precisely one of the three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists that first aroused greed towards Duan Lingtian.
"Hmph! Dong Ming, I advise you to mind your own business … You're only at the fifth level of the Void Initiation Stage. We have three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists here, and any two of them would be sufficient to annihilate you! "
Another person spoke out as well.
Dong Ming's face sank, as he naturally knew that what these two people said was true.
If he helped Duan Lingtian, then he would probably be unable to escape death.
"Don't forget Young Miss Xue Nai by Brother Ling Tian's side … If you dare touch him, then Young Miss Xue Nai will absolutely not let you off!"
Dong Ming took a deep breath and carried out Han Xuenai.
As soon as Dong Ming finished speaking, the expressions of the three people that were instigated to go against Duan Lingtian went grim.
But in next to no time, they gritted their teeth and became firm.
Riches and honor were sought amidst danger …
