After the three hegemonic powers left, the experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and Thunder God Hall still remained here, having no intentions to leave. The leader from the Sacred Sun Sect spoke, "You guys quickly report this to the sect leader. We only have seven days."
After speaking, they left as well. However, they didn't leave the Blackmetal Emperor Sect. Instead, they stayed in the residence where the Blackmetal Emperor Sect hosted them, monitoring the movements of the sect.
"Return to the Blackmetal Great Hall for a discussion." It wasn't convenient for the old man in the air to say too much here. After that, everyone started to move out.
The Blackmetal Great Hall was the discussion hall of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect. Ordinary characters weren't allowed to enter.
At this moment, Qin Wentian and the upper echelons of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect entered the great hall. The expressions of the experts here were all heavy and solemn. Feng Qianxue and Feng Zhu stood beside Qin Wentian. Feng Qianxue transmitted her voice, "Brother Qin, this matter originally had nothing to do with you. I'm sorry for making use of you earlier."
"Don't worry about it, it's just an expedient measure. In any case, they were the ones who wanted to deal with me. You said that so that they wouldn't have a reason to act against me." Qin Wentian casually replied. Feng Qianxue's beautiful eyes glanced at Qin Wentian but she didn't say anything.
"Qianxue, is this man really your dao companion? Why don't we know about this? "The old man in the lead was none other than the grand elder of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect. He stared at Feng Qianxue as he asked.
"Grand elder, Brother Qin only happened to pass by the Blackmetal Emperor Sect and asked me to forge a weapon for him. Before this, I spoke nonsense and had no choice but to do so. Grand elder, please don't blame me." Feng Qianxue spoke.
"I see." The grand elder nodded. He then stared at Qin Wentian, "Speaking of which, this is a matter of our Blackmetal Emperor Sect and has nothing to do with you. Now that you want to leave, the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall wouldn't spare you. Even if you wanted to leave, you wouldn't be able to. I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it. This is my own choice. Senior, there's no need to be so polite." Qin Wentian shook his head.
"In the future, you have to be more careful. The people from the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall have a strong killing intent towards you." The grand elder reminded. After that, he glanced at everyone, "This time around, we didn't expect that the three hegemonic powers of the Eastern Tomb Faction have already submitted. Seems like this time around, our Blackmetal Emperor Sect won't be able to escape this calamity. Even if we seek the sect leader's help, we might not be able to reverse the situation."
"Our Eastern Tomb Faction has received the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall and has existed independently until now. Now that we are forced to submit to them, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before they split us apart and take over the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall. Everything would have nothing to do with us and we would only become their tools." An immortal king spoke. Everyone nodded, they understood the situation they were in.
"I'm not willing to submit to you." Another immortal king spoke. The great elder glanced at the surroundings, the vast majority of immortal kings were unwilling to submit. After all, immortal kings all had their own pride.
"You guys can speak freely. I will report your attitudes to the sect leader and let him and the supreme elders decide." The old man spoke again when he saw that there were still people who didn't speak. He needed to know the opinions of everyone in the Blackmetal Emperor Sect.
After everyone finished speaking, the great elder waved his hand, "All of you can return. I will naturally inform you all once I have an answer."
"Yes."
The experts all retreated, feeling heavy in their hearts. The pressure from the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall was so heavy that it was hard for them to breathe.
Qin Wentian left with Feng Qianxue and Feng Zhu. On the way back, he asked, "What secrets does the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall have?"
"Since you have already participated in it, there's no harm in me telling you. The Eastern Tomb Holy Hall is a transcendent power of the ancient era. Later on, it declined and was gradually forgotten in the river of time. However, the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall has always existed in the Eastern Tomb Immortal City. Right now, there are four emperor-ranked powers. In the past, although there were conflicts between the four powers, the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall was able to unite against external enemies and protect the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall, preventing others from seizing the inheritance. If the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall joined forces, even the peak powers of the Central Regions would have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to forcefully seize the inheritance. Hence, my Eastern Tomb Holy Hall managed to survive until now."
Feng Qianxue slowly spoke. "However, this day has finally arrived."
"After so many years, has there never been a peak-level expert from the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall?" Qin Wentian was puzzled.
"How can it be so easy to produce a peak-level expert? Also, I heard that there were some extremely powerful existences that appeared before but they were all assassinated. Those peak powers wouldn't allow the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall to grow too strong or they wouldn't be able to control it." Feng Qianxue bitterly smiled. "Actually, everyone knows that it isn't easy to maintain the balance for so many years. Eventually, the balance would be broken. They have to gain control of the inheritance of my Blackmetal Emperor Sect and the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall. The chaos in the desolate mountains seems to have strengthened their resolve."
"What is there in the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall?" Qin Wentian curiously asked.
"Holy books, holy wills, holy weapons, and what else? I'm not sure." Feng Qianxue's voice was solemn. Her beautiful eyes stared into the distance, filled with reverence and yearning towards that holy place.
"It's rumored that in ancient times, there were many saints in the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall. They have already transcended mortality and achieved the Great Dao. The power they left behind can be passed down for a hundred generations." Feng Qianxue mumbled.
"What's the cultivation realm of a saint?" Qin Wentian was somewhat curious.
"I don't know. Maybe the saint realm is similar to the ancient emperors in our immortal realms. In any case, they are existences that have surpassed the emperor scriptures. As for what realm they are at, I have no idea." Feng Qianxue replied.
"According to the rumors in the outside world, the Eastern Tomb Holy Mountain is no more than an ordinary mountain range. The Eastern Tomb Holy Hall is only a legendary place. However, the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall seems to have always existed and isn't a legend. In that case, why doesn't the people of the world know about it?" Qin Wentian asked again.
"The Holy Mountain opens due to fate. How would ordinary people have the chance to see it? Unless someone forcefully broke it open. There's a saying in my sect that the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall is already extremely unstable. If we forcefully break it open, the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall might collapse and become a place of the past." Feng Qianxue continued. This matter caused a sense of unease to appear in her heart.
Qin Wentian didn't continue asking. He returned to his residence and instructed, "Recuperate well."
"Mhm." Feng Qianxue nodded. Although her injuries weren't light, given her cultivation base, she could recover very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed. The time agreed upon by the Blackmetal Emperor Sect had arrived.
Today, the three emperor-ranked powers of the Eastern Tomb Immortal City arrived, exuding an imposing aura. Their auras were extremely tyrannical.
The experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and Thunder God Hall also moved out. This time around, they directly surrounded the Blackmetal Great Hall of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect, not giving the Blackmetal Emperor Sect any chance.
The grand elder of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect stood on the stone steps leading to the Eastern Tomb Holy Hall. He stared at the experts who arrived and spoke, "The sect leader has given an order, telling the people of my Blackmetal Emperor Sect to head to the Eastern Tomb. He will appear there and give everyone a conclusion."
"Head to the Eastern Tomb?" The expressions of the experts from the three powers stiffened. During these seven days, the three powers sent their immortal senses to monitor the movements of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect. Not only for the Blackmetal Emperor Sect, the entire Eastern Tomb Immortal City was under surveillance. However, they didn't see any traces of the sect leader of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect. Only the two supreme elders returned.
The experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and Thunder God Hall frowned as they spoke in an unfriendly tone, "What does the Blackmetal Emperor Sect intend to do?"
"This is the sect leader's intention. I'm helpless as well." The grand elder shrugged.
"Fine, let's head to the Eastern Tomb then." The leader from the Sacred Sun Sect coldly snorted.
"Let's move out." The expert from the Thunder God Hall spoke. After that, a group of experts moved out, heading towards the Eastern Tomb.
The Eastern Tomb was located to the east of the Eastern Tomb Immortal City. Right now, the Eastern Tomb Holy Mountain was extremely desolate. It was hard to imagine that such an ordinary mountain could be called a holy mountain.
Many experts arrived here, including Qin Wentian. He stared at the Eastern Tomb, staring at the simple and unadorned holy ground. There was nothing strange about it.
Several killing intents circulated around him. Qin Wentian knew that there were some people who wanted his life. His eyes flashed with coldness as well.
"Where is the Blackmetal Sword Emperor?" The expert from the Sacred Sun Sect impatiently asked. The sect leader of this generation of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect was known as the Blackmetal Sword Emperor.
"The sect leader is already here." The grand elder of the Blackmetal Emperor Sect spoke.
"Are you playing with me?" The aura of the expert from the Sacred Sun Sect surged violently as he coldly rushed out.
The grand elder shook his head. Abruptly, a resplendent light radiated from that ordinary-looking holy mountain. Beams of light shot out from the mountain and gradually, an incomparably resplendent radiance appeared. At the same time, a terrifying sword qi also appeared.
"RUMBLE …" An extremely powerful sword might gushed forth, causing the mountains to crumble and the earth to shatter. At this instant, many people couldn't even open their eyes. That holy light was simply too bright, causing the entire mountain range to tremble. Within that holy light, an ancient mountain actually appeared. That was none other than the Eastern Tomb.
Qin Wentian covered his eyes with his arms as he stared at the holy light. This should be the true Eastern Tomb Holy Mountain, right? The Eastern Tomb appeared, it was unknown how vast it was, incomparably majestic, blocking the path ahead as though it was connected to the heavens.
"Blackmetal Sword Emperor." Numerous gazes turned to a figure. In the air, a middle-aged expert stood there with arrogance, like an emperor of the mortal world.
"You actually broke the balance of the Eastern Tomb …" The experts from the Sky Bell Cult roared in rage.
"Blackmetal Sword Emperor, how can you come out from the Eastern Tomb? You have been hiding here all this while, have you gone mad?"
"Are you trying to sever the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb?" The experts from the Vajra Sect also roared in rage.
"Shut up." That figure waved his hand as a supreme sword intent slashed out. With a light wave, the body of an immortal king was directly sliced into two, instantly slain. In an instant, all the experts here were as silent as cicadas in winter. All of them were trembling uncontrollably.
"We pay our respects to the sect leader." The expert from the Blackmetal Sword Sect bowed. He didn't expect that their sect leader had always been hiding in the Eastern Tomb.
"Back then when the Eastern Tomb opened, I already had a premonition that the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb would come to an end. I sealed myself within the Eastern Tomb, comprehending the heavenly dao of the Holy Book. If I don't succeed in my dao, I won't leave the Eastern Tomb and naturally wouldn't destroy it. The next time the Eastern Tomb opens, I might be able to come out, or I might not."
The Blackmetal Sword Emperor slowly spoke. He then continued, "It's just that I didn't expect that I would use such a method to forcefully break out of the Eastern Tomb, breaking the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb. Since this is the case, let's allow the Eastern Tomb to undergo its final inheritance."
After speaking, the radiance on the Blackmetal Sword Emperor's body was released to the extreme. The wind and clouds howled as 10,000 swords moved with the clouds, flowing through the sky. Very soon, the entire sky above the Eastern Tomb Immortal City was filled with his sword intent.
"The Eastern Tomb has opened, the Holy Book has entered the world. If you want to view the Holy Book, you can come to the Eastern Tomb." A voice rang out. The voice of the Blackmetal Sword Emperor rang out through the entire immortal city!
"Eastern Tomb, the Holy Book has entered the world. The legendary Eastern Tomb actually exists?" At this moment, countless people inclined their heads and stared at the sky. When they sensed the sword intent flowing through the air, their hearts trembled unceasingly.
"Let's go to the Eastern Tomb." Countless figures flashed as they flew towards the direction of the Eastern Tomb.
For the Sky Bell Cult, Divine Inscriptions Palace and Vajra Sect, there were many experts who inclined their heads and stared at the sky. Their eyes were like sharp swords that were unsheathed. They didn't expect the Blackmetal Sword Emperor to be so ruthless, vanishing for so many years and actually sealing himself within the Eastern Tomb to comprehend the Holy Book.
Stepping out, they all soared through the air, rushing towards the direction of the Eastern Tomb. Seems like the Blackmetal Sword Emperor had no intentions of submitting. The plans of the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall would definitely fail.
"Is the inheritance of the Eastern Tomb going to be severed?" They sighed in their hearts. The Blackmetal Sword Emperor had opened the final inheritance.
