The Tomb of the Ancient Sword Venerable!
Which expert's tomb was this?
The dozen or so people from the Sky River Race and the Nether River Race searched their minds for information, but they couldn't find anyone related to the description on the tombstone.
"Indeed, it's not a supreme expert from the Sky River Race or the Nether River Race. It's definitely a supreme expert from another race."
After that, everyone focused on the four people who had just arrived.
"Oh, two from the Sky River Race and two from another race."
They were a little surprised to see the people from another race, but the people from the Sky River Race didn't show any special expressions. The people from the Nether River Race, on the other hand, had a pair of flickering eyes.
It was also the first time that Chu Mu had seen the people from the Nether River Race, who were as famous as the Sky River Race. There were obvious differences in appearance. First, the skin of the people from the Sky River Race was closer to that of the human race, but it was slightly ruddy. The skin of the people from the Nether River Race was closer to that of the human race, but it was more ruddy. The skin of the people from the Nether River Race was closer to that of the dark green, emitting a trace of coldness.
The eyes of the people from the Sky River Race were red, like the rising sun, while the eyes of the people from the Nether River Race were dark green, dark and strange.
Finally, the body shape. The people from the Sky River Race were taller and stronger, while the people from the Nether River Race were thinner.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling glanced at the people from the Nether River Race, while Goros and Mo Luoshan were full of fear.
Then, Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's eyes were attracted to the tombstone in front of them.
The Tomb of the Ancient Sword Venerable!
The four blood-red words contained an indescribable sharpness. The moment he saw them, Chu Mu felt as if he had been pulled into a space-time. The sky was filled with rolling blood clouds, and below was a surging blood sea.
The blood color seemed to be formed by the blood of ten thousand species. The space between the blood ocean and blood sky was filled with endless sword aura. The sword aura had many different colors and swam everywhere. Each ray was extremely terrifying. It gave Chu Mu the feeling that even a powerful dominator rank expert wouldn't be able to defend against a single ray and would instantly be killed upon contact.
Countless Sword Qis seemed to have sensed Chu Mu's arrival and changed directions to attack from all directions, instantly piercing through Chu Mu.
Chu Mu felt as if ten thousand swords had pierced through his heart. The pain was unbearable. His entire body trembled as it returned to his body. Chu Mu's face was pale. The feeling of being pierced through left him with lingering fear.
When he looked at it again, the four words became ordinary, which surprised Chu Mu.
Everyone tried to find a way to activate the power surrounding the tomb and enter it. However, no matter how hard they tried, it was difficult to do so. Even if they released their full strength, they could only create a few ripples.
Everyone was anxious because they knew that the slower they were to activate the power surrounding the ruins, the more people would come here.
As expected, after some time, more experts from the Sky River Race and the Nether River Race arrived.
However, only two people came this time. One was from the Sky River Race, and the other was from the Nether River Race.
The Sky River Race expert carried two swords on his back and wore silver armor. The edges of the armor were golden. It looked very exquisite and gorgeous. The Nether River Race expert carried two narrow sabers on his back. The sabers were curved like crescent moons. He wore green armor with black edges. There was a strange beauty to it.
The two of them seemed to have arrived at the same time. Their auras constantly collided with each other, transforming into circular ripples that wreaked havoc in all directions. It directly caused most people to retreat. Only Chu Mu stood tall, not moving at all.
"It's the Evil Sword Of Gojoseon's Sword Cry Pu Yue. He's ranked 33rd on the Sky River Silver List."
"That's the Dark Ancient Duo from the Dark Blade King's Tribe of the Nether River Race. He's ranked 34th on the Nether River Silver List."
Before these two people arrived, other than Chu Mu, the highest ranking of the people present on the Heavenly River Silver List or Underworld River Silver List was only around two hundred. Now, there were two experts in the top hundred. Moreover, they weren't just normal top hundred. Instead, they were terrifying experts in the thirty third and thirty fourth ranks.
The Sky River Silver List and the Nether River Silver List were on the same level. The difference between the 33rd and 34th places wasn't very big. Moreover, the Nether River Race was good at sneak attacks and assassinations. If they didn't fight head-on, the Sky River Race experts who were one or two places higher than him wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
"Tomb of the Ancient Sword Venerable!" Pu Yue's eyes fell on the huge sword-shaped tombstone. His eyes were shining. "I heard that a long time ago, a foreign race expert came here and challenged the experts of the Sky River Race and the Nether River Race. He grew stronger and defeated two groups of King level experts."
"Are you talking about that person? The one who called himself a Human Clan Sword Cultivator?" The Dark Ancient Duo from the Nether River Race seemed to know about that history. Hearing this, their eyes were shining.
The conversation between the two of them was not concealed in the slightest. Everyone heard it clearly, and their faces were filled with shock.
Someone who could defeat the King level experts of the Sky River Race and the Nether River Race repeatedly was from a foreign race.
As for Chu Mu and Xue Yinling, when they heard this, their eyes flashed with a strange light.
The one buried in the Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb was a Human Clan Sword Cultivator ancestor. Moreover, he was a Demigod Sovereign.
"Ancient Sword Venerable, who is this ancestor?" Chu Mu thought. He searched his memory, but he couldn't seem to find a name related to this ancestor.
If he had to find a little bit of connection, it seemed to be the Ancient Sword Venerable.
"Ancient Sword Venerable … Ancient Sword Venerable … There's only one word difference. Could it be the same person?" Chu Mu thought, "The Three Sages Technique that I practice was obtained by the Ancient Sword Venerable. It came from the depths of the universe. Is it referring to the Sky River and the Nether River?"
"It's said that the Ancient Sword Venerable went to the Nether River and the Sky River more than once. After leaving for the last time, he went to explore the universe and never returned. Could he have died here?"
"If the one buried in the Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb is the Ancient Sword Venerable, what kind of expert or danger could kill him?"
Chu Mu kept guessing, but he didn't know the truth.
Was the one buried in the Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb the Ancient Sword Venerable?
It might be, or it might not. After all, although there were very few Demigod Sovereigns born in the Human Clan, there were still some. Most of them chose to travel the chaotic universe, and some of them might not have been recorded.
No matter what, Chu Mu had to enter the tomb. Perhaps it would give him an unexpected gain.
But now, he didn't know how to open it.
"I want to see what good things are left behind by such an expert." The Ancient Sword Venerable sneered and raised his palm. It was as sharp as a knife and instantly slashed down. The power outside the Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb was suddenly attacked, and layers of ripples spread out.
"What a strange attack!" Chu Mu was shocked.
When the Ancient Sword Venerable attacked, it was difficult to feel the fluctuation of aura, and there was no light or shadow. It was invisible and colorless, and impossible to guard against. They were indeed experts in assassination.
"It can actually block it." The Ancient Sword Venerable was a little surprised. One had to know that although it was just a casual attack, it was enough to heavily injure experts outside the top hundred of the Silver Ranking of the Styx River. It was really unexpected that it could be blocked. Then, the Ancient Sword Venerable pulled out one of the two knives on his back and casually slashed down.
The curved knife was extremely fast, and it silently cut open the void. It was invisible and colorless as it slashed down on the power outside the tomb. Under the knife, the ripples instantly exploded and spread out in all directions. It was very shocking.
However, the power was still not broken. The Ancient Sword Venerable's expression was serious, and so was Jian Ming Pu Yue. The Ancient Sword Venerable's strength was not inferior to his, but when he attacked, he still couldn't break through the power. It was enough to show that the power was shocking.
"Jian Ming Pu Yue, do you want to try?" The Ancient Sword Venerable said as he put away his knives.
Jian Ming Pu Yue didn't say anything, but she pulled out the Sword Venerable from her back. The sword light was like ripples in autumn water. She casually stabbed out, and Chu Mu's pupils shrank in an instant.
Jian Ming Pu Yue's sword seemed to be played down, but it actually contained an extremely strong power. That was something that could only be done when one's swordsmanship had reached a certain level. It was a representation of the use of power to a certain extent.
The sword seemed slow, but in fact, it was extremely fast. Everyone's eyes were still fixed on the moment it was pulled out, but it had already pierced through the protective power surrounding the tomb. Where the tip of the sword landed, ripples spread out, but it did not break through.
"It's very tough, but it can be broken. It needs time," Jian Ming Pu Yue said as she put away her sword.
"Since it's that way, then we'll all attack together. We'll take turns attacking the same point until we break through," said the Ancient Sword Venerable.
Jian Ming Pu Yue nodded in agreement. The others naturally couldn't object, and they weren't qualified to object. As for Chu Mu, he didn't have any intention of objecting either, because opening the tomb was also his goal.
Everyone stood in their positions and started to accumulate power.
"I'll attack first," said the Ancient Sword Venerable. Double Extinction of the Dark and Ancient said. He pulled out his blades and slashed down silently. The two blades attacked the same point of the Tomb of the Ancient Sword Venerable. Then, Pu Yue's two swords also came out of their sheaths and stabbed out at the same point.
Then, the other strong cultivators from the Sky River Race and the Nether River Race attacked one after another. Their attacks didn't have a large area of effect. Instead, they gathered their power as much as possible and concentrated it into the smallest area of effect.
They only needed to break a point or a gap in the protective power to tear it open and open the tomb.
Then, Chu Mu also unsheathed his sword. When he held both swords in his hands, Jian Ming Pu Yue's gaze fell on Chu Mu. He looked at him deeply, as if he wanted to see through Chu Mu.
This was because he cultivated dual swords, and this strange race person also cultivated dual swords. This aroused his interest.
However, it was only a trace of interest. He sensed Chu Mu's aura fluctuations, but it didn't arouse his battle intent at all. Those who could be his opponents couldn't be ranked lower than him.
