"The sword intent that hasn't dissipated for five hundred years?"
Just now, when the fierce aura spread out, Ye Chen immediately knew that it was the sword intent. After all, he had almost reached the entry level of the sword intent, so he knew more about it than the others. Because of this, when the two sword intents confronted each other, Ye Chen's sword intent was suddenly shattered, causing him to spurt out a mouthful of blood.
Hearing Xu Changjian say that this was the remaining sword intent of the Battle King from five hundred years ago, Ye Chen couldn't help but be shocked. After five hundred years, this sword intent hadn't dissipated yet, which meant that it was definitely not only the entry level sword intent, but something even higher than the entry level sword intent.
As for what kind of sword intent surpassed the entry level sword intent, Ye Chen didn't know.
"Life and Death Realm warriors are indeed powerful. If the sword intent of the Natural Moat Gorge was at its peak, who could possibly block it? Perhaps only Life and Death Realm warriors could!" Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ye Chen sighed slightly. He didn't know what to feel.
Eh?
A strange look appeared on Ye Chen's face.
The broken sword, which had been staying quietly in the storage ring, suddenly started shaking slightly, as if something was attracting it.
Ding … Dang … Dang …
The broken sword was divided into two parts, one was the upper part, and the other was the hilt and the lower part of the sword. Now, the two parts, which were originally one, were rushing up at an extremely high speed, bumping against the space wall of the storage ring and letting out clear metal clangs …
"Is it …"
Ye Chen thought of a possibility. The broken sword might be the Battle King's sword, or it might have something to do with the Natural Moat Gorge. Back in the Northwest Auction, he remembered that the auctioneer had said that this broken sword had a history of five hundred years, and five hundred years ago, the Battle King had fought against a Life and Death Realm warrior.
"This is unbelievable! This broken sword is probably the Battle King's sword, and now it's being summoned by the sword intent, trying to rush out of the storage ring." Ye Chen wasn't worried that the broken sword would run away. The space wall of the storage ring was very solid, and a broken sword which had already lost its spirit couldn't possibly break through the space wall, unless it had the power to break the space.
The Ocean Beast flew past the Natural Moat Gorge. When it was the closest to the Natural Moat Gorge, the frequency of the broken sword clashing against the space wall abruptly increased. Within a single moment, it had clashed against the space wall for at least tens of hundreds of times, letting out waves of raging fire sparks that even melted some low-grade spirit stones that were standing close to it.
However, this was only temporary. As the Ocean Beast moved further away from the Natural Moat Gorge, the frequency of the broken sword's attacks gradually decreased, and eventually quieted down completely, lying quietly in the storage ring.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen thought to himself, 'I don't have the strength to enter the Natural Moat Gorge right now. Once I'm strong enough, I might be able to go in and take a look. I'll see if the broken sword is really the Warlord's sword. Also, the only broken part of the sword might be in there.'
The final destination of the Ocean Beast was the Three River City, the largest port city in the Spirit Reaching Country.
Sanjiang City Port.
There were people coming and going at the pier, and there were all kinds of ships docked at the riverside. There were cargo ships, passenger ships, and even warships. There were no less than a hundred of them, densely packed together.
"People, the Three River City is one of the branches of the South Chamber of Commerce. This is the final destination, please get off the ship." The Ocean Beast docked at the pier, and Xu Changjian stood on the deck and said to the crowd.
"Eh, I'm going to the Elephant Mountain Nation. It seems that I'll have to take a ship."
"I'm going to the Grey Mystery Nation, but it's a bit far. I'll rest in the Three River City for a couple of days first."
Only a few of them had agreed to go to the Spirit Reaching City at the beginning. The others only boarded the ship because the Ocean Beast was fast. Otherwise, they would have taken other routes, which would have been much shorter.
After getting off the ship, Ye Chen didn't start his journey right away. There were still two to three hundred thousand miles to go from here to the Grey Mystery Nation, so he didn't have to rush.
The Three River City was very prosperous, but also very crowded.
Walking on the street, Ye Chen glanced over and saw a huge crowd of people everywhere.
* * * *
"My dear guest, I'm sorry, our restaurant is full. Would you like to try other restaurants?"
"My dear guest, our restaurant is full as well. Other restaurants might have some vacant rooms."
"I'm really sorry, my dear guest. To be honest with you, all the restaurants in the outer city of the Three River City are full every day. I'm afraid that only the inner city can have vacant rooms."
After walking into seven or eight restaurants in a row, Ye Chen found that all of them were full. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. The population density of the Three River City was indeed amazing. But of course, from this, one could tell how prosperous and prosperous the Three River City was.
"I'd better go to the inner city."
Famous big cities usually had inner cities, such as Luo City, where the Ye family was located, the Happy City, where the Northwest Auction House was located, and the Gale City, which was located on the Great Devil Grassland. All of these cities had an inner city, and normally, only people with high social status or great wealth could live in the inner city.
After paying the expensive entrance fee, Ye Chen walked into the inner city.
Compared to the outer city, the streets in the inner city were wider, but the population density was much lower. At least, people didn't have to rub shoulders with each other.
"Eh? Ye Chen, it's you!"
A familiar voice came from behind him.
Ye Chen turned around, saw the face of the man, then grinned and said, "Lin Yue, long time no see. Why are you also in the Three River City?"
The man who had called Ye Chen's name was Lin Yue, the head disciple of the Dragon Tiger Mountain, a rank seven institution in the Elephant Mountain Nation. Back in the tomb of the Heaven Dream Ancient Region, he and Ye Chen and Leng Wuqing had fought against martial zombies together.
Lin Yue laughed and said, "Should I ask you? The Elephant Mountain Nation is not far from the Spirit Speaking Nation, but your Windy Nation is quite far from here. "
"I came out to gain some experience."
"Gain experience? Good idea. But the leader thinks that I'm not powerful enough, and wants me to gain more experience." Lin Yue showed an envious look.
Ye Chen smiled. He could understand the leader of the Dragon Tiger Mountain. He had spent a lot of effort to raise a Hidden Dragon Ranked martial artist, and he couldn't let him die before he matured.
"I'm planning to stay in the Three River City for a couple of days, what about you?"
"I'm here for a party, why don't you come as well? No matter what, you're the most powerful young martial artist among the nine nations, you're qualified to join this party. "
Ye Chen was confused, "What party?"
"It's held by a Hidden Dragon Ranked martial artist from the Spirit Speaking Nation. The invited guests are all Hidden Dragon Ranked martial artists from the few neighboring countries, and the Elephant Mountain Nation is right next to the Spirit Speaking Nation."
"I think I'm not going, they didn't invite me, it's not appropriate."
"Why not? Usually, people come uninvited, I'm sure this time will be the same."
Helplessly, Ye Chen had no choice but to accept the invitation.
Outside a dazzling and magnificent restaurant.
Lin Yue said, "Let's go in, the party will be held in the yard behind the restaurant."
Entering the restaurant, the two walked across the lobby and came to a large, luxurious yard behind the restaurant. The party would be held in the third luxurious yard.
"Please come in."
Outside the yard, a waiter was waiting for them.
Lin Yue nodded, then walked straight in with Ye Chen.
This large, luxurious yard belonged to the restaurant, and was used to entertain distinguished guests. Every yard occupied an extremely large area, and the interior of the yard was quite unique, with fake mountains, green waters, pavilions, terraces, and other buildings.
Walking into the colorful garden, Ye Chen slightly narrowed his eyes. On the broad, flat ground, there were only around ten young people, both male and female.
Without any surprise, all of these people were Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists, two of them were even Mid Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists. Strong Zhen Qi vibrations were rippling like water.
"Haha, brother Lin Yue, you're here as well."
The handsome young man who had been talking and laughing noticed Lin Yue, stood up and said with a smile.
"Hehe, it seems that I'm late." Lin Yue cupped his hands and said to Ye Chen in a low voice, "This is the host of this party, his name is Qi Shaofeng, ranked thirty-eighth in the last Hidden Dragon Ranking, and is now a Mid Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist, very powerful."
Hearing Lin Yue, Ye Chen glanced at him. Qi Shaofeng's body was well-proportioned, and he had restrained his Zhen Qi. His eyes didn't look as fierce as before, instead, they were as gentle as a spring breeze. However, Ye Chen dared not to underestimate him. All the top fifty of the last Hidden Dragon Ranking were Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists, and now that two years had passed, it wouldn't be strange for him to become a Mid Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist.
"I was wondering who it was, it's Lin Yue. I haven't seen you for a long time, I guess you've improved a lot. But if you don't have any tricks up your sleeves, you might be eliminated in this Hidden Dragon Ranking." The arrogant young man standing beside Qi Shaofeng didn't stand up either, instead, he threw a glance at Lin Yue and said.
Lin Yue responded, "Just so-so, how can I compare with you?"
"Who's that kid standing beside you? I've never seen him before. Don't tell me you're treating this place like a tea party, where anyone can come in."
Lin Yue laughed and responded, "I brought him here, of course, he's qualified."
"Oh, tell me." Qi Shaofeng was a bit curious about Ye Chen as well, he believed that Lin Yue wouldn't bring an irrelevant person here.
Lin Yue introduced Ye Chen to the crowd and said, "He's Ye Chen, the most powerful young martial artist in the nine nations, including our Elephant Mountain Country. Even Yuanheng Ying had suffered a great loss in his hands, I guess he's still recovering."
Yuanheng Ying had suffered a great loss in his hands?
The crowd all fixed their eyes on Ye Chen.
Qi Shaofeng grinned and said, "Yuanheng Ying's power is not to be underestimated. Since you've defeated him, you're indeed qualified to join this party. Come, this way, please."
Facing the crowd's gazes, Ye Chen showed no change in his expression, he found a seat and sat down, after which, beautiful maids came over to pour him some tea or wine.
"I was wondering how powerful you are, but you've only defeated Yuanheng Ying. To be honest, you really don't have any powerful martial artists in the nine nations." Gao Yuan took a sip of the tea and said carelessly.
Sitting beside Ye Chen, Lin Yue said, "That guy named Gao Yuan, although he's quite arrogant, he's actually quite powerful. He was ranked forty-sixth in the last Hidden Dragon Ranking competition, and is now a peak-level early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist. He's much more powerful than Mo Wuxue and Yuanheng Ying, and I heard that he's been through quite a lot of adventures, and has mastered a powerful martial art."
Lin Yue had brought Ye Chen here for some other reason, for example, he wanted to let the crowd know that there were still some powerful young martial artists in the nine nations.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Murong Qingcheng is late."
At this moment, a silvery voice came from outside the backyard. Soon, a young woman in a purple dress walked in. She was about twenty years old, had a slim and graceful body, and her face was covered with a thin veil. Although no one could see her real face, judging from her beautiful face, she must be a peerless beauty. A gentle breeze blew across, and a natural, orchid-like fragrance drifted over, which was even more intoxicating than the aroma of flowers in the backyard.
