The sensing spiritual array in the center of the Heaven Wasteland Great Hall surged with runes. The power of the array flowed continuously as countless light spots flickered.
This was a very mysterious sensing spiritual array that could sense the aura of every talisman. Every light spot represented a swordsman participating in the Sword Principle competition.
"Senior Brother is indeed powerful. A small Sword Principle competition has attracted so many swordsmen." Beside the spiritual array, a skinny figure appeared and spoke coldly with a strange smile on his face.
The person who spoke was a swordsman in grey robes. He looked to be in his forties or fifties and had a skinny figure like a mummy. His aura was restrained and his eyes were as empty as an abyss. However, he gave off an extremely terrifying suffocating pressure, as if one look at him would sink into the abyss.
This person was none other than one of the five great swordsmen of the Heaven Domain, Dugu Ni!
Dugu Ni was a swordsman from the Heaven Wasteland Hall and was also the Deputy Hall Master of the Heaven Wasteland Hall. It was not strange for him to appear here.
In front of Dugu Ni stood a middle-aged man with a long beard. He was dressed in white and looked elegant and handsome, giving off the feeling of a modest gentleman. However, his eyes flickered with a cold light, as if there was a very deep secret hidden within them.
He was Dugu Ni's senior brother, the Hall Master of the Heaven Wasteland Hall, Cang Shanxue!
"These swordsmen are all here for the Ancient Sword Tomb. Otherwise, they would not participate in the Sword Principle competition." Cang Shanxue said indifferently. His expression was calm and there was not a single ripple in his eyes.
"Yes." Dugu Ni let out a strange laugh. He looked at the light spots in the sensing spiritual array and said, "Everyone comes for benefits. In order to get what they want, they do not hesitate to gamble with their lives. I wonder how many of these light spots will continue to flicker after the Sword Principle competition. "
Dugu Ni's eyes were as calm as water, as if the light spots were not people, but ants.
"Hall Master, all the swordsmen have arrived in the sky above the Forbidden Region of Heaven Wasteland. Should we let them in now?" At this moment, a grey-robed elder spoke respectfully. Judging from his attire, he should be a Spiritual Array Master.
"Alright, let them in." Cang Shanxue nodded slightly as a strange smile flashed across his face.
"Go in, go in. A good show is about to begin. "Dugu Ni chuckled as excitement surged in his eyes.
At the same time, in a forbidden zone of the Desolate Mountain Range, more than a dozen Steel-Back Dragon Eagles floated in the air. Tens of thousands of swordsmen stood on them, looking down at the forbidden zone with excitement and uneasiness.
"What a powerful sword formation!" Nie Tian stood on the back of a Steel-Back Dragon Eagle. His eyes trembled involuntarily when he sensed the vast power of the formation coming from below.
He did not expect the Forbidden Region of Infinite Wasteland to be guarded by a huge sword formation.
"This isn't an ancient forbidden spell. It seems to have existed for only a hundred years. The power of the spell is very strong." Nie Tian thought. Then, he looked at the talisman in his hand.
The aura within the talisman was similar to the power of the formation. It contained the power of the sword formation.
"You can enter the forbidden zone now. The talismans in your hands can temporarily open the forbidden zone's protective sword array." At this moment, a swordsman of the Heaven Desolate Palace appeared and said with a cold expression, "After entering the forbidden region of Heaven Desolate Domain, if the talisman in your hand breaks, you will be eliminated. Someone in the forbidden zone will bring you out. "
"Remember, there will only be a hundred swordsmen left in the forbidden zone!"
The person emphasized the last sentence, as if reminding everyone to snatch the talismans from others and break them!
"Alright! I'll go in first! " As soon as the person's voice fell, someone could not wait any longer and directly leaped down from the Steel-Back Dragon Eagle. When he was close to the sword formation, the talisman in his hand released a force of the formation, which tore a crack in the sword formation. The figure entered the crack and instantly disappeared.
The other swordsmen leaped down from the Dragon Eagles. Countless figures tore a crack in the sword formation, causing the entire sword formation to shake violently.
Nie Tian watched from the side. He was not in a hurry. When most of the swordsmen had left, he signaled the others to get ready to enter the forbidden zone.
Nie Tian's figure directly leaped out and swooped down. With a thought, the talisman released the force of the formation, and a crack appeared in the sword formation. His figure then entered.
"So this talisman is also the key to enter the forbidden zone of Heaven Desolate Domain." Nie Tian landed on a huge rock and restrained his aura to the extreme, keeping the talisman in his hand.
Then, Han Ling and the others also descended from the sky and appeared at a place not far from Nie Tian.
"Is everyone okay?" Nie Tian's gaze swept over, and after making sure that everyone was there, a strange look flashed across his eyes.
The people in Nie Tian's group were all there. He looked at everyone, planning something in his heart.
There were a total of seven people in this group: Nie Tian, Liu Haoyu, Han Ling, Pu Feifan, Xiao Yun, Shangguan Yufei, and Kang Shibo.
Among them, Nie Tian, Liu Haoyu, and Xiao Yun were the strongest, while the other four were relatively weak.
"Everyone, crush all the talismans in your hands." At this time, Nie Tian took out the talismans in his hand and crushed them without hesitation.
"Hmm?" Everyone was taken aback, not knowing what Nie Tian was doing.
Without the talismans in their hands, wouldn't they be eliminated directly?
"Everyone's talismans are the same. At the end of the Sword Principle Competition, one hundred talismans must be kept. We don't need the talismans now, but when we need them, we can snatch one," Nie Tian said with a faint smile.
The others were stunned for a moment, then they immediately understood and crushed the talismans.
Without the talismans, Nie Tian and the others would be safer. As long as they did not leave the forbidden zone of Heaven Desolate Domain, they would not be eliminated.
Then, Nie Tian swept his gaze across the other six people and said, "The seven of us will be divided into three groups. If there is an emergency, we will be in groups and take care of each other. Even if we are not separated, every group must be together. "
"Yes." The others nodded and waited for Nie Tian's arrangement.
"Liu Haoyu and Pu Feifan will be in one group, Xiao Yun and Shangguan Yufei will be in another group, and the remaining three will be in another group." Nie Tian nodded and warned, "No matter what happens, the people in each group cannot be separated."
"Okay!" Everyone agreed. Of course, they understood the intention of Nie Tian's arrangement.
The three groups were a combination of strong and weak. Liu Haoyu would protect Pu Feifan, Xiao Yun would protect Shangguan Yufei, and Nie Tian would protect Han Ling and Kang Shibo. Fortunately, the two of them were not weak. Unless they encountered a strong enemy, they would not need Nie Tian's protection under normal circumstances.
After arranging all these, Nie Tian's expression relaxed a lot, but he muttered in his heart, "Heaven Desolate Palace, I wonder how many killing swords you have arranged!"
Killing swords!
The reason why Nie Tian asked everyone to crush the talismans was because he had other suspicions.
He guessed that among the swordsmen who entered the forbidden zone of Heaven Desolate Domain, there must be swordsmen arranged by Heaven Desolate Palace. These swordsmen could sense the talismans and treat all swordsmen as prey to slaughter!
It had to be said that Nie Tian was really meticulous. He guessed correctly!
Just as Nie Tian was guessing, in a canyon of the forbidden zone of Heaven Desolate Domain, four black-robed figures appeared, each with an extremely powerful aura.
Each of them held a sensing compass in their hands, on which countless light spots flickered. They were all the swordsmen with talismans!
