Under the blue sky, white clouds drifted as the wind blew. The clouds were illusory and formless, and the mysteries were indescribable.
The Sky Sword Mountain had been standing tall since ancient times. No matter how the wind and rain blew, it had never collapsed. Even when its inheritance was cut off, it still stood tall and proud. Now, its orthodoxy had been passed down again.
The Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb sounded like a destination, but it was actually a secret realm created by a Supreme Saint expert of the Ancient Heavenly Sword Mountain. In other words, it was a different space that was attached to the Spiritual Martial Sacred World. If one wanted to enter it, they needed a special method.
Only the people of the Sky Sword Mountain knew this method, and that was the first part of the Sky Sword Principle.
In other words, if one did not cultivate the first part of the Sky Sword Principle to a certain level, even if one knew where the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb was, one would not be able to open it.
Where was the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb?
At that very moment, three figures were rapidly descending into Sky Sword Mountain.
This was because the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb was located in the deepest part of the Sky Sword Mountain.
Tian Jianzi, Xiao Tianjian, and Chen Zong were rapidly falling. The deeper they went, the darker it became. It felt like they were falling into a bottomless abyss.
Chen Zong felt that the height of their fall should have exceeded the height of the Sky Sword Mountain, but they still had not reached it.
Ten thousand meters!
After falling about ten thousand meters from the top of the Sky Sword Mountain, Chen Zong saw the land.
Although the light here was extremely dim, it could not block the gaze of Chen Zong and the other two.
"It's here." Tian Jianzi pointed ahead. His eyes shone with a sharp light, and he was secretly excited.
There was a stone wall in front of him. The stone wall was flat, as if it had been carved out by a sword. It looked incomparably smooth, and there was a sword mark in the middle. The sword mark was surrounded by countless lines, which looked messy and disorderly, but it also contained an indescribable mystery.
The stone wall exuded an extremely ancient charm. No one knew how long it had been there, but it seemed to be extremely hard. Chen Zong knew that even if he performed the Line of Heaven and Earth with all his might, he would not be able to leave any marks on it.
"This is the Heavenly Sword Wall. It was created by the Great Saint Stage powerhouses of the Heavenly Sword Mountain in ancient times. It is also where the entrance to the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb is located," Tian Jianzi introduced excitedly.
Chen Zong nodded and stared at it. He felt that the sword mark contained an indescribable profundity, but he couldn't tell exactly what it was because it was too profound and unfathomable, and it far surpassed his current level in the Sword Dao.
When the gap between realms was too great, it would be difficult for him to comprehend anything even if it was placed in front of him.
Chen Zong looked through the lines next to the sword mark. He also felt that they were very mysterious, but he couldn't figure out anything about them either.
"Sir Jiandi, I'm going to open the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb," Tian Jianzi said with a solemn expression.
Chen Zong and Xiao Tianjian stepped back.
This time, Xiao Tianjian certainly wouldn't follow them into the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb because he wasn't strong enough. If he entered rashly, the possibility of death was too high. As for the purpose of coming here, of course, he was here to take care of it. If there was a chance, then the last wish of revitalizing the Heavenly Sword Mountain would fall on him. He needed to be more prepared.
Boom!
A tyrannical aura suddenly exploded from Tian Jianzi's body. The sword aura was endless, as if it had turned into a terrible storm, crushing and destroying everything around it.
However, the earth and mountain walls here were extremely tough. Tian Jianzi's aura exploded with full force, but it couldn't cause any damage at all. Chen Zong was shocked that he couldn't even leave a trace.
"Heavenly Sword!" Tian Jianzi's eyes emitted a terrifying divine light. His beard and hair fluttered in anger, as if they were in the mighty wind. Every strand of his hair was condensed into an astonishing sword aura that could penetrate everything.
Tian Jianzi was fully urging his own strength to display the Heavenly Sword Path.
An illusory giant sword suddenly condensed behind him.
The light in his eyes was extremely strong, like a small sun. His forehead bulged, and the illusory Heavenly Sword behind him became more and more solid.
He was doing his best!
It seemed that he was squeezing out every bit of his strength.
"Heavenly Sword … Go!" Tian Jianzi used his fingers as a sword guide. He drew a mysterious trajectory in the void, pointing straight ahead. The giant illusory sword behind him trembled and flew out quickly.
It seemed to be slashing at the Heavenly Sword Wall, but in fact, it wasn't. The giant illusory sword instantly approached the Heavenly Sword Wall and imprinted on the sunken sword mark. The size of the mark was just right, as if it had been dug out from the top. It fit perfectly.
Inlay!
Chen Zong only felt that the Heavenly Sword Wall seemed to tremble slightly. Immediately after, the patterns around the Heavenly Sword Imprint seemed to light up one by one. They emitted a light that seemed to be silver and gold at the same time. It was as dazzling as divine radiance.
There seemed to be a cracking sound. Immediately, in the divine light, the mark of the Heavenly Sword opened little by little to the left and right, as if a door was being pushed open.
A ray of astonishing sharpness leaked out from the opened gap. As soon as it appeared, Chen Zong and the other two trembled, as if they were being torn apart.
Moreover, that ray of sharpness contained a deathly stillness and paleness, as if it came from the Nine Serenities of Hell.
A touch of grayish-white divine light rippled, attracting the attention of the three people.
Open!
Open continuously!
It didn't stop until the crack on the Heavenly Sword Wall was about half a meter wide.
"Your Excellency Jiandi, let's go," Tian Jianzi said in a deep voice. He leaped, turned into a ray of sword light, and rushed toward the crack on the Heavenly Sword Wall.
In the blink of an eye, Tian Jianzi disappeared into the crack.
Chen Zong didn't hesitate either. His figure shook slightly, turned into a gust of wind, and disappeared into the crack with Tian Jianzi.
Xiao Tianjian stared at the crack on the Heavenly Sword Wall, resisting the urge to break into it.
…
A gray aura spread in all directions, as if the world had just been created, but it was filled with a deathly stillness, as if there was no vitality.
Immediately, Chen Zong heard a shout coming from the front. Then, his whole body tensed up, and his scalp tingled slightly. A wisp of grayish-white sword energy shot through the air, but it was silent.
If it weren't for his superhuman perception, he wouldn't have been able to detect and react in an instant.
He unsheathed the Sunken Night Sword and slashed it in the air, shattering the cold grayish-white sword energy. Chen Zong moved forward quickly. The shout just now was a little hurried. It was Tian Jianzi, and the situation didn't seem good.
After a breath, Chen Zong saw Tian Jianzi, who was being attacked by the cold grayish-white sword energy, and was having a hard time coping with it.
He swung his sword!
Chen Zong immediately shattered several sword energies, relieving the pressure on Tian Jianzi.
"Your Excellency Jiandi, please help me resist. I need to recover my strength," Tian Jianzi said quickly.
"Okay," Chen Zong replied immediately.
In order to open the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb, Tian Jianzi had used all his strength to display the Heavenly Sword Path, so he didn't have much strength left. Now that he had stepped into the tomb, he was attacked by a lot of sword energies. Usually, he could resist, but when he didn't have enough strength, it was inevitable that he would struggle.
Moreover, who knew if he would encounter other dangers later?
Therefore, it was necessary to recover his strength.
As a companion, Chen Zong naturally had to bear the corresponding responsibilities and obligations. This was the meaning of companionship.
Otherwise, Tian Jianzi could have entered and explored by himself. Why would he need to find someone else to enter the Secret Realm of the Heavenly Sword Mountain and reap the benefits inside?
The previous generation's Tian Jianzi had gone in alone without any companions to rely on. That was why he had perished.
However, Tian Jianzi didn't know that in ancient times, the people of the Heavenly Sword Mountain wouldn't encounter any danger when they entered the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb. After all, this was the place where the experts of the Heavenly Sword Mountain were buried after their deaths. It was a cemetery, a place of rest.
However, as the inheritance was cut off for too long, some changes had occurred here, and danger had appeared.
The grayish-white sword energy seemed to come from the depths of hell. Although the power of each strike wasn't very strong, it could be completely blocked and shattered. However, if one was hit, there would be bad consequences.
Chen Zong definitely wouldn't let them hit him.
With the Deep Night Sword in hand, Chen Zong blocked and shattered all the grayish-white sword energy, no matter how many of them there were. They couldn't hurt Chen Zong at all, nor could they affect Tian Jianzi, who was behind Chen Zong.
Tian Jianzi had already made sufficient preparations. He had prepared a large amount of energy recovery and healing elixirs. At this moment, he was taking some energy recovery elixirs and using all his strength to restore his strength. He trusted Chen Zong with his safety.
At this moment, if Chen Zong had any evil intentions, he didn't need to do it himself. He only needed to release one or two grayish-white sword energies, and Tian Jianzi would be buried here.
However, Chen Zong wouldn't do that. This wasn't his way of doing things.
If he agreed, Chen Zong would do his best to fulfill his promise. Only then would he not go against his conscience.
Under the protection of Chen Zong, Tian Jianzi's strength was constantly recovering. The elixirs he had obtained over the years were all of the best quality. The effects were amazing, and the side effects were minimal. Therefore, after about half an hour, Tian Jianzi's strength was completely restored.
"Thank you, Your Excellency Jiandi. I have recovered." Tian Jianzi stood up. A strong aura spread from his body. His eyes shone with a strong light. He casually pointed and a sword energy shot out, shattering the grayish-white sword energy.
"So, what should we do now?" Chen Zong asked.
The Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb was the tomb of the fallen experts of the Sky Sword Mountain. It was a secret realm belonging to the Sky Sword Mountain. Only the people of the Sky Sword Mountain knew enough about it. He was an outsider. If he hadn't been invited by the current Tian Jianzi, he wouldn't have known much about the Sky Sword Mountain, let alone the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb.
Perhaps after countless years, the inheritance of the Sky Sword Mountain had been lost, and their understanding of the Ancient Heavenly Sword Tomb was also lacking. However, on the whole, they knew more about it than he did.
More or less, some guidance was better than running around like a headless fly and encountering all kinds of dangers.
Tian Jianzi didn't answer. Instead, he carefully observed the surroundings. His eyes shone with a divine light. The aura on his body fluctuated like a tide. He seemed to be sensing something.
Immediately, Tian Jianzi stared at a place. Although it still looked gray, he said without hesitation, "Your Excellency Jiandi, this way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Jianzi immediately led the way forward. Chen Zong hurriedly followed.
Once they entered this place, the dangers were unpredictable. It was better not to separate. If they acted together, it might be safer.
