Zhou Wen only took a glance at the stone sword before his gaze swept past it and landed on the hall behind it.
With the stone sword hanging as the dividing line, there were only some murals and sculptures in the hall in front. As for the hall behind the stone sword, there were rows of bamboo slips.
Bamboo slips were tools used to record things in ancient times. Back then, paper hadn't been invented yet. People engraved words on pieces of bamboo and then strung them together to make it easier to preserve and read.
Looking in from the outside, there were rows of shelves in the hall behind. There were all sorts of bamboo slips placed on them. There were so many of them that even the League's library didn't have such a large scale.
This wasn't the main point of Zhou Wen's observation. The main point was that the bamboo slips seemed to emit a strange power. It was because the power emitted by the bamboo slips was condensed on the stone sword, allowing it to produce such terrifying might that it could resist the Yin Yang Mirror.
How strange. That stone sword can actually use the power of the bamboo slips. This is unheard of. Zhou Wen was somewhat puzzled.
Books and swords were originally two incompatible things, but now, the sword was borrowing the aura of books. It was very strange.
Liu Yun gave Zhou Wen a look before looking at Jing Daoxian, who was struggling with the stone sword in the hall.
Zhou Wen immediately understood what Liu Yun meant. He wanted to kill him while he was down. Now that Jing Daoxian was resisting the stone sword with all his might, it was the best opportunity to kill him.
Zhou Wen was somewhat tempted. If he could kill Jing Daoxian here, he wouldn't have to be on tenterhooks in the future. He was afraid that he would accidentally follow in the footsteps of Lord Alcohol and Xia Jiuhuang.
Just as he was wondering if he should take the risk, the Yin Yang Ancient Mirror in Jing Daoxian's hand suddenly spun. The divine light on the mirror turned from white to black as it spewed at the stone sword.
With a sword hum, the stone sword was unsheathed and transformed into a peerless sword beam that slashed at Jing Daoxian.
The Yin Yang Ancient Mirror's mirror beam couldn't block the stone sword at all and was sliced apart. The stone sword was about to slash at the Yin Yang Ancient Mirror.
Zhou Wen and Liu Yun were delighted. If the Yin Yang Ancient Mirror could be severed, the soul imprisoned in it would naturally be able to escape.
Dang!
At the instant the stone sword was about to slash at the ancient mirror, the Yin Yang Mirror in Jing Daoxian's hand suddenly retracted. In his other hand, he smashed something that looked like a jade seal onto the stone sword.
The stone sword fell to the ground with a clang and was suppressed by the jade seal. It struggled to overturn the jade seal and was about to overturn it.
Jing Daoxian ignored the jade seal and stone sword as he quickly rushed into the hall at the back. With a flash, he vanished.
Almost at the instant he rushed into the hall where the bamboo slips were piled up, the jade seal was cut in half by the sword light on the stone sword, directly shattered and destroyed.
The stone sword circled in the air, but it did not chase into the hall behind. It only returned to the scabbard.
"Damn it, we should have taken action earlier," said Liu Yun regretfully.
However, Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "It's useless. Jing Daoxian sensed our killing intent towards him, which is why he suddenly risked his life. It doesn't matter if we attack earlier or later."
"What do we do now? With the stone sword guarding the hall, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to rush in like Jing Daoxian, "said Liu Yun.
"Since we can't enter, we can only wait." Zhou Wen left the door and looked at the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General who was fighting the twelve Gold Men.
The Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General became braver as he fought. Although he was still at a disadvantage, he was already able to stand firm under the siege of the twelve Gold Men. He wasn't as pathetic as before.
Looking at the purple flames that burned crazily in his body like a cauldron, as well as the armor that had been calcined by the purple flames, Zhou Wen couldn't help but have a thought.
The Ancient Sovereign Sutra is a combat-type Essence Energy Art. The Defy Ancient Sovereign Life Soul is also the type that becomes stronger the more it fights. It's somewhat similar to the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General. Can I use the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General's model to improve the Defy Ancient Sovereign Life Soul? Zhou Wen thought to himself.
Although the Defy Ancient Sovereign Life Soul doesn't have the ability to condense killing aura into flames, it has a powerful life essence. If I can use the Defy Ancient Sovereign's life essence to calcine myself … Zhou Wen considered this possibility.
However, now wasn't the time to study this. He took out his phone and opened the downloaded Founding Emperor Tomb dungeon before entering it.
The Founding Emperor Tomb dungeon didn't have an entrance, but Zhou Wen already knew the way in. He summoned the Earth Elemental Beast in-game and quickly arrived at the pillar in the Mercury Sea.
He easily passed through the Mercury Sea and arrived outside the city. However, there was no Emperor Qin Sword in-game. All Zhou Wen could do was attempt to use the Earth Elemental Beast to enter the city.
Unfortunately, the mysterious Yin City seemed to be protected by some mysterious force. The Earth Elemental Beast couldn't enter.
From the looks of it, I can only give it a try. Zhou Wen ordered the blood-colored avatar to forcefully blast the door, but it was useless. No matter how strong the attack was, it couldn't move the door at all.
Could it be that I really can't enter without the Emperor Qin Sword? Zhou Wen used Truth Listener to carefully observe the structure of the door and the sword hole, hoping to use the power of a miniature Companion Beast to open it.
Unfortunately, the sword hole didn't have any special structure. It was like a scabbard that matched the Emperor Qin Sword.
Just as Zhou Wen was feeling disappointed, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be some words on the door.
Strange, why didn't I see these words before? Zhou Wen looked at the ancient city's door in puzzlement. He didn't see any words on the door.
He clearly remembered that when the blood-colored avatar first arrived in front of the door in-game, there weren't any words on the door.
Zhou Wen looked at the words on the door in-game. They were ancient words from the East District. Zhou Wen had learned some of them when he was studying the Dao Sutra, so he recognized the words on the door.
This is an Essence Energy Art? After carefully reading the words on the door, Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised.
He never expected that there would be an Essence Energy Art on the door of the Founding Emperor Tomb. However, there was no beginning or end to it. Zhou Wen didn't know what Essence Energy Art it was.
While Zhou Wen was reading the Essence Energy Art on his phone, Liu Yun looked into the hall and then at the Fiend-Armored Tiger Soul General fighting the twelve Gold Men. He was extremely anxious. When he turned his head, he saw Zhou Wen sitting there playing with his phone. He couldn't help but say, "Junior Brother, you're still in the mood to play with your phone at such a time? We have to quickly think of a way to enter and see what Jing Daoxian is doing. "
"With that stone sword around, I don't have the ability to enter. If you have a solution, feel free to give it a try." After Zhou Wen finished reading the Essence Energy Art on the door, the Lost Immortal Sutra came into play again and simulated the Essence Energy Art.
