The sword light was endless, like mountains and rivers, like floating clouds in the sky, containing infinite mysteries.
Chen Zong was horrified by this move. He felt like he was trapped in a maze and couldn't find a way out.
He waved his sword.
Cut, cut, cut!
Chen Zong exerted all his strength and unleashed all his attacks. Finally, he managed to break free from the influence of the sword. However, he only saw a sharp sword light that seemed to pierce through the void.
Chen Zong didn't have time to dodge. His shoulder was pierced by the sword. An indescribable pain suddenly swept over him like a tide.
In the sea of consciousness, the body of soul sense wielded the sword faster. But at the same time, the pain caused by the attack was more intense.
Under the sharp pain, Chen Zong instantly lost his balance. In an instant, his opponent waved his sword again and hit Chen Zong's body of soul sense.
Chen Zong's soul sense had been half consumed, so he was not as strong as his peak state. The Exploding Sword Elder used to be an expert at the limit of the Tianxuan Realm. He had been immersed in swordsmanship for thousands of years. He was better than Chen Zong in all aspects.
If Chen Zong hadn't been tough enough, he would have been defeated.
But if he continued, he could only hold on for a while.
Chen Zong tried his best to resist while thinking about how to deal with it.
"Rely on the power of the Sky-reaching Tower?"
Chen Zong didn't know if it was possible. After all, although he had refined the Sky-reaching Tower, to be honest, he didn't know much about it. It was a Semi Divine Weapon. Whether in power or mystery, it was far better than a Super Spiritual Weapon. Chen Zong's cultivation was too low, so he could only exert part of its power.
"Or rely on the power of the Heart Sword Seal?" Chen Zong thought of another idea.
In the past, when threats entered his sea of consciousness, he relied on the Heart Sword Seal to get through the crisis. From this point of view, the Heart Sword Seal seemed to be more reliable.
But at that time, the Heart Sword Seal was passive.
Could it take the initiative?
Chen Zong didn't know, but he had to try.
His mind fell on the Heart Sword Seal in the center of his sea of consciousness. He communicated with it and conveyed his thoughts with some expectation and anxiety.
To Chen Zong's delight, the Heart Sword Seal actually responded.
In an instant, a breath of aura spread out from the Heart Sword Seal and entered Chen Zong's broken body of spiritual sense. Then, it quickly spread to the sword of spiritual sense in his hand.
The Sword of Soul Sense was swung out naturally, as if it was guided by something in the dark. It was completely out of Chen Zong's control.
At this moment, it was not Chen Zong who drew his sword, but the sword that guided Chen Zong.
Like a sudden impulse, like a stroke of genius, this sword was filled with endless profoundness, and this profoundness did not only lie in its transformations.
In an instant, Chen Zong seemed to see an ancient figure wielding a sword. An indescribable feeling filled his whole body, and Chen Zong was completely immersed in it.
This sword seemed to transcend time and space.
A single sword was eternal and everlasting.
The Exploding Sword Elder was stunned. That sword seemed ordinary but it felt like it was aimed at one's soul. It was locked on and there was no way to dodge it. It even gave one a feeling of being unable to block it.
Under this sword, even one's mind seemed to be frozen.
While being shocked, the Exploding Sword Elder reacted quickly, but he was still a bit late. That sword broke through the air and was extremely mysterious. It stabbed silently and pierced through the Exploding Sword Elder's glabella.
The body of spiritual sense had no so-called vital points. Thus, even if it was pierced between the eyebrows, it would not die. However, the sword contained a strange and terrifying power. It started from between the eyebrows of the elder's body of spiritual sense and quickly spread out like lightning.
The Exploding Sword Elder could only let out a miserable cry. His mind and the body of spiritual sense collapsed directly.
Immediately, the Heart Sword Seal released a suction force and directly absorbed the Exploding Sword Elder's body of spiritual sense after it collapsed.
Before Chen Zong could react, the Heart Sword Seal shot out a bit of spiritual light and infused it into the body of spiritual sense of Chen Zong.
The broken body of spiritual sense recovered quickly. His consumed spiritual sense also quickly recovered to the peak and seemed to be strengthened. However, that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the spiritual light shot out by the Heart Sword Seal contained a bit of memory of the Exploding Sword Elder of the Mingjian Sect.
There were not many memories, but they were all essences. The essence of the Tao of Sword was absorbed by Chen Zong.
It seemed like a long time had passed. Chen Zong finally absorbed the Exploding Sword Elder's memory completely. Although he could not completely grasp the essence of the Tao of Sword, he had grasped a part of it. Imperceptibly, Chen Zong's accumulation of the Tao of Sword increased a lot and became more vigorous.
As soon as he thought about it, many inspirations about the Tao of Sword appeared in his mind.
Although it was only a part of his memory, the Exploding Sword Elder was an expert at the limit of the Profound Sky Realm who had lived for more than a thousand years. No, in terms of age, he had lived for more than a thousand years. He had lived for tens of thousands of years since the antiquity times.
Even though he had practiced swordsmanship for more than a thousand years, he had also been thinking about the mystery of the Tao of Sword when he became an Evil Corpse. Imperceptibly, he had accumulated a lot of knowledge.
Even though it was only a part of it, it was still a huge amount. It was even more than Chen Zong's own accumulation.
"When I completely absorb these memories, there will be a new change in the Tao of Sword." Chen Zong thought to himself. He could not help but feel a little excited.
Whether it was the treasure or the Spiritual Gold, he was happy. However, compared with the improvement of the Tao of Sword, it was not important.
The Tao of Sword was his real pursuit, his greatest pursuit.
Without the support of the Exploding Sword Elder, Chen Zong could easily open the closed door. However, Chen Zong did not rush to open it. Instead, he quickly took a Virtual Ring from the Exploding Sword Elder's corpse.
After refining it and recognizing it as its owner, Chen Zong's face unconsciously showed a touch of joy.
Middle-grade Virtual Ring!
It was one grade higher than the Virtual Ring he was using now. Naturally, the space inside was also several times larger.
Most importantly, this Middle-grade Virtual Ring was still intact.
Chen Zong guessed that this elder of the Sword Gate had not completely turned into an evil corpse, and he still had his consciousness and will left behind. He must have tried his best to preserve the spirituality of the Void Ring, but the price he had to pay was probably the depletion of the spiritual source, because Chen Zong did not find any spiritual source in the ring.
Not only was there no Spiritual Origin, Chen Zong also did not see any Spiritual Herbs or elixirs.
However, it was not empty. There were three things in it.
The first thing was a sword, a long sword in a scabbard. The scabbard was red and hollow, as if it was woven and solidified by flames. As for the sword, Chen Zong had not drawn it out, so he did not know what it looked like. However, judging from its aura, Chen Zong knew that it was an upper-grade Spiritual Sword.
This sword should be the Exploding Sword Elder's sword.
The second thing made Chen Zong's eyes shine.
Spiritual Gold Ore!
With a single glance, Chen Zong counted them clearly. There were a total of three hundred and eighty Spirit Gold Ores. Each Spirit Gold Ore was about the size of a human head. There was not much difference between them. Obviously, they had been carefully selected.
Although he did not know how much Spiritual Gold could be extracted from 380 Spiritual Gold Ores, Chen Zong was still very excited.
The third thing shocked Chen Zong directly.
Spiritual Gold!
The refined Spiritual Gold was the size of a grain of rice. After counting, Chen Zong found that there were more than five kilograms of Spiritual Gold.
Five kilograms of Spiritual Gold!
What did this mean?
It meant that he could upgrade 100 low-grade Spiritual Weapons to Middle-grade Spiritual Weapons. Of course, this was not a big deal. The point was that he could upgrade 10 Middle-grade Spiritual Weapons to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons.
If he wanted to upgrade upper-grade Spiritual Weapons to supreme-grade Spiritual Weapons, it was far from enough. He would need 50 kilograms of Spiritual Gold.
Of course, if he had supreme-grade Spiritual Weapons, with his current cultivation, Chen Zong would not be able to exert much of their power. Moreover, it would bring great disaster to himself.
"With five kilograms of Spiritual Gold, I can upgrade my Devil Slaying Device to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons." The thought flashed through his mind.
The Devil Slaying Device was a Middle-grade Spiritual Weapon obtained from the Devil Slaying Division. It provided Chen Zong with a lot of protection. If it could be upgraded to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons, its defensive power would be even stronger.
"The Frost Devil Ring can also be upgraded to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons." Chen Zong thought again.
The Frost Devil Ring was a top-notch Middle-grade Spiritual Weapon. If it was upgraded to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons, its power would be obviously increased and it would be more useful to him.
"The Middle-grade Inner Armor I am wearing can also be upgraded to upper-grade Spiritual Armor."
Then, Chen Zong could not think of anything to upgrade.
However, if he could upgrade these three Middle-grade Spiritual Weapons to upper-grade Spiritual Weapons, his overall strength would be greatly improved.
Now that there were two strong enemies who could come to him at any time, he should upgrade as much as possible.
Thinking of this, Chen Zong did not leave. He blocked the closed door as much as possible and began to melt the Spiritual Gold to upgrade the three Middle-grade Spiritual Weapons.
After a period of time, the Cold Ice Demonic Ring was upgraded to a high-grade spirit tool. The ice blue color became deeper and deeper. The sword mark that Chen Zong had left on it also disappeared. Moreover, strands of cold air diffused out from the Cold Ice Demonic Ring and pervaded the surroundings. Countless ice frost condensed.
With the Frost Devil Ring as the center, the area within a radius of a few meters was covered by a shocking cold air.
Chen Zong waved his hand and the Frost Devil Ring turned into a ring on his left index finger. The shocking cold air was quickly restrained.
The second upgrade was the Devil Slaying Device.
When Chen Zong melted the Spiritual Gold to upgrade the Devil Slaying Device, the closed door of the palace was pushed hard and began to shake.
Chen Zong frowned but did not stop. The Spiritual Gold had been melted and covered the Devil Slaying Device. It was slowly seeping into the Devil Slaying Device to upgrade it. This process could not be interrupted.
With two booming sounds, the door was hit by a huge force and cracked open.
The next moment, the door was directly blasted open and a figure appeared in front of Chen Zong. At the same time, the figure's sharp eyes were fixed on Chen Zong.
The Exploding Sword Elder was dead and the darkness in the palace disappeared. It did not affect one's vision at all.
Immediately, the person who blasted open the door was stunned at first. Then, his face was full of surprise and excitement.
