"Whoosh!"
Mount Zhiyan.
Several figures emitting terrifying auras landed at the collapsed underground cave at the same time.
Among these few figures, the leader was a burly man wearing a fiery-red armor. The long cape on his shoulders fluttered in the wind, and he was filled with a domineering aura. The pressure emitted from his body had reached the peak of the Green Underworld Stage. If such a person was placed outside the sea, he would definitely be able to wipe out 99% of the forces outside the sea. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was invincible.
At this moment, several hundred people in the Blazing Flame Mountain Cave had already cleaned up the collapsed cave, revealing the tragic and spectacular battle that had erupted within the cave to everyone.
"Discipline King Lie Ji, according to the traces we found, this man … is at least in the Syncretism of Spirit and Qi. Moreover, his cultivation method is very advanced … It is similar to the Golden Crow Skill of our Jin Wu religion …"
An old man from the Jin Wu religion who was in charge of cleaning up the cave came forward and said hesitantly.
"Syncretism of Spirit?! Golden Crow Skill?! Are you saying that someone who is not from our Jin Wu religion has mastered the cultivation method of the fourth stage of the Golden Crow Skill?! "
Discipline King Lie Ji's eyes shone with a cold light. "I need detailed information. This is related to the supreme law of our Jin Wu religion. I can't just rely on your inference!"
"This …"
The old man glanced at the entrance of the karst cave and said, "According to the traces of fighting inside the karst cave, we were ninety percent sure that even if the cultivator didn't cultivate the [Great Sun Golden Crow Spell], his cultivation method must be related to the Golden Crow Spell. However, the traces left outside the cave … made us suspect … that the cultivator might have cultivated a secret method similar to the [Great Sun Golden Crow Spell], but the damage caused by it was similar to the [Great Sun Golden Crow Spell] …"
"You must investigate this matter as soon as possible! If this kid is cultivating the Jin Wu religion's Great Sun Golden Crow Technique, then things won't be so simple. I need to personally report this to the Sect Leader and ask the Grand Elder to capture him alive and force him to reveal the details of how he obtained the Great Sun Golden Crow Technique! "
"I understand. I will gather all evidence as soon as possible to prove this conjecture … our Jin Wu religion has been on the decline during this period of time. Under the pressure of the Hunyuan Heaven Sect, the Limitless Sword Sect, and the Create Evolve Mysterious Gate, our reputation is not as good as before. The Great Sun Golden Crow Technique is the foundation of our Jin Wu religion. If it is leaked out … it will definitely deal a serious blow to our entire Jin Wu religion."
"I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. This person is extremely vicious and has killed an elder of my Jin Wu religion. My Jin Wu religion will not let this matter rest! Regardless of whether or not he's cultivating the Great Sun Golden Crow Technique, let's capture him first! "
After Discipline King Lie Ji finished speaking, he turned to another elder who was in the Syncretism of Spirit and Qi realm. "Where did the murderer escape to? Do you have any clues? "
"After the murderer killed the two elders, Hong Yang and Hong Yan, he took the air route to Wanxiang City. We've already sent people to Wanxiang City, and we'll have clues very soon."
"Wanxiang City?"
Discipline King Lie Ji frowned, but that was it. "I'll personally make a trip to Wanxiang City and ask for the cooperation of the city lord. No one can get away with killing the higher-ups of the Jin Wu religion!"
...
The transaction in Wanxiang City went very smoothly. He obtained three Level 6 Divine Weapons, one Level 6 Armor, and one Level 6 Flying Sword from Xuanwu's cave abode. He naturally kept the Level 6 Flying Sword for his own use. As for the Level 6 Armor, it was expensive and Wanxiang City might not be able to afford it. Instead, it was more convenient to sell the three Level 6 Divine Weapons.
However, Tsing Hui, who had obtained the Primordial Spirit Qi, could not wait to head to the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's ancestral ground to cultivate. He did not want to stay in Wanxiang City for too long, so he asked Ling Yue to stay in Wanxiang City and keep an eye out for items that could carry the Dao and refine the Spirit. Meanwhile, he, Yun Tao, and Madam Zhu Yu headed to the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain.
He needed to train his Spirit to its limits in the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain. Even with the help of the Primordial Spirit Qi, it was still very dangerous. He did not feel at ease letting Ling Yue, who he could not completely trust, follow him.
The inland was not as vast as the overseas.
Under Yun Tao's control, the Sacred Winged Dragonhawk took only two days to arrive at the Hunyuan Heaven Sect's Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's ancestral ground.
Tsing Hui could not help but sigh as he recalled his first visit to the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's ancestral ground.
Back then, he had not even reached the Immortality Stage and had relied on a Tier 3 Divine Weapon to slaughter his way through the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's ancestral ground and destroy the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's faction. Now that he thought about it, he had been a little reckless.
Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain was only a small faction and did not have any hidden experts. Their foundation could not be compared to the real top factions. Otherwise, if the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain had a few True Qi Realm Patriarchs who were in seclusion and did not come out, and suddenly appeared when he attacked …
Given his cultivation level back then, he definitely would not have been a match for them. In the end, he would not have been able to escape the fate of having his Divine Weapon stolen and dying.
"My lord, this place is..."
Yun Tao and Madam Zhu Yu asked curiously when they saw Tsing Hui stop in an area that had clearly not been visited by anyone for a long time.
"Could this be my lord's sect?"
Tsing Hui shook his head. "Alright, the two of you stand guard outside for me. I want to cultivate here and do not let anyone disturb me."
"Yes."
Yun Tao and Madam Zhu Yu acknowledged at the same time.
"The two of you stay a little further away. Stay at least a thousand meters away from this mountain."
Although Yun Tao and Madam Zhu Yu did not understand the meaning behind Tsing Hui's words, they had taken the Spirit Dispersing Pill and were loyal to Tsing Hui. Naturally, they would not go against his words and quickly retreated a thousand meters away.
At this time, Tsing Hui had stepped into the depths of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain's ancestral ground and reappeared in front of the mysterious stone pillar.
Compared to before, the interior of the cave did not change much. Even the mysterious stone pillar was still standing there, and no one was interested in it.
After all, other than the ten great sects, Spirit Refining cultivators were very rare in the mainland. Cultivators who had reached the Spirit Refining realm and above were usually able to fly on their swords and rarely walk on the ground. This greatly reduced the chances of the cave being discovered.
As for cultivators below the spirit refining realm...
Once they encountered the sword intent within the mysterious stone pillar, no matter how many came, they would all die.
Tsing Hui took a deep breath and reached out to touch the mysterious stone pillar. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Last time, even the rank three Divine Weapon, the Green Firmament Sword, could not let me see your true appearance. This time … I will uncover your true secret."
After saying that, the Golden Crow Sword appeared in his hand. Accompanied by a wave of heat, Tsing Hui suddenly swung the sword. The Golden Crow Sword turned into a dazzling sword shadow and fiercely slashed at the mysterious stone pillar. For a moment, flames burst out and stone fragments flew. The entire cave began to shake violently with his sword.
Amidst the shaking, the mysterious stone pillar also trembled slightly. Following that, a sword intent that was many times stronger than before suddenly burst out. Like a tsunami, it crashed into Tsing Hui's spiritual world. Even though Tsing Hui's spiritual power had greatly improved compared to before, he still felt his spirit sway.
After a while, the sword intent's impact gradually dissipated. Only then did Tsing Hui's furrowed brows relax.
The sword intent emitted by the stone pillar...
Was very strong.
Even though his Spiritual Level had reached the astonishing 53rd level, he still couldn't calm himself down.
Of course, that was all.
If it was to say that it could cause him harm, this level of sword intent was already lacking in strength.
Looking at the stone pillar that had a large amount of stone fragments, Tsing Hui took a deep breath. In the next moment, the earth energy within his body erupted. The Golden Crow Sword once again burst out with a blazing golden light, and then...
A wave of heat swept out. Following Tsing Hui's slash, the surface of the mysterious stone pillar seemed to have exploded like a bomb. In the midst of the explosion, even more stone fragments sputtered out. The mighty heat spread out in all directions, impacting the floor of the cave, turning the solid floor of the cave into glass. The remaining power swept upwards, turning the floor of the cave into porcelain and causing it to shatter. Large amounts of rocks rustled down, almost burying the entire hall.
"The cave is going to collapse..."
Tsing Hui could not help but frown as he looked at the mysterious stone pillar that he had not completely destroyed.
He didn't know what this mysterious stone pillar was, but it was extremely sturdy. Even when he slashed with the Golden Crow Sword with all his strength, he still couldn't completely cut it apart. Moreover, the powerful force of the slash was transmitted to the entire cave, causing the cave to be in imminent danger. If this continued, the cave would completely collapse. At that time, it wouldn't be a small project for him to dig out the mysterious stone pillar from the collapsed mountain.
"I can only do it bit by bit."
Tsing Hui sighed. Immediately, he used the Golden Crow Sword as a shovel and began to poke away the stone fragments around the mysterious stone pillar bit by bit. In this way, although the speed was slow, at least the mountain would not collapse.
One hour, two hours, three hours...
As Tsing Hui continued to clear away the material around the mysterious stone pillar, the stone pillar became thinner and thinner.
When the stone pillar was only the size of a washbasin, a layer of stone fragments fell to the ground, revealing a smooth stone surface that looked like a crystal.
This stone surface was sparkling and translucent. Even in the darkness of the cave, it still emitted a sparkling and translucent color.
Especially...
He could sense an extremely terrifying aura coming from this crystal-like solid object.
"Energy!? Solid energy!? "
Tsing Hui's heart thumped as an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Solid energy!
When a cultivator reached the first level of the Saint realm, their vital energy would transform from a gaseous state to a liquid state. If this liquid vital energy was used in a special way, it could even solidify into spirit crystals, which were rather similar to the solid crystal in front of him.
However...
Compared to the solid spirit crystals formed from vital energy, this solid object in front of him was clearly much more stable. Although it contained a terrifying aura, Tsing Hui could not refine or use it at all.
"This is definitely solid energy left behind by an expert above the Saint realm!"
Without hesitation, Tsing Hui sped up the excavation of the mysterious stone pillar.
Finally, after a day, the stone fragments around the mysterious stone pillar were completely cleared away by Tsing Hui, revealing its true appearance.
A crystal pillar!
A crystal pillar that was about twenty centimeters in diameter and three meters in length. It was completely formed from that mysterious solid energy!
The truly shocking thing was that at the very center of the crystal pillar, there was actually a sword...
A broken sword that only had half of its tip!
