Chapter 1532: Chapter 1530: Nothingness Sword Sovereign (Sixth Update)
The entire small mountain village was nestled against the mountains and water, with a dense, large mountain in the back.
Hmm?
Suddenly, Xiao Yifeng noticed something unusual—a formation wave was hidden within this mountain.
This formation wave was beyond the perception of ordinary martial artists, but as an array master, especially one as highly skilled as Xiao Yifeng, he immediately discovered that there was a formation within this mountain.
"This mountain is extraordinary!"
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes narrowed as he spoke to Hong Mei, then he left the place and dashed toward the peak of the mountain.
Soon, Xiao Yifeng arrived at the mountain and headed towards the location of the formation wave.
When Xiao Yifeng reached the area containing the formation wave, a mountain wall appeared before him.
"An illusion formation!"
A spark gleamed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes, and he quickly realized what kind of formation this was.
This was an illusion formation, which could cause hallucinations; although a mountain wall appeared before him, it was merely an illusion created by the formation.
"Open!"
Xiao Yifeng waved his hands, forming seals and breaking formation seals while yelling furiously, striking his hands forward.
Boom!
A booming sound erupted as the entire mountain wall rippled with waves, yet the illusion formation did not break.
"Such a powerful formation!"
Xiao Yifeng’s expression changed, his eyes flickering.
At that moment, a sun appeared in Xiao Yifeng’s right eye and a moon in his left eye, and icy blue and golden lights shot out, landing directly on the mountain wall.
The power of the True Sunfire and Ice Soul Essence exploded, merging fire and ice, unleashing a frightening force.
BANG!!!
A violent boom sounded, a terrifying energy burst forth, and Xiao Yifeng’s body was knocked back repeatedly, his breathing becoming chaotic.
As a flash of light passed, the mountain wall in front of Xiao Yifeng had vanished, replaced by a valley.
Xiao Yifeng walked into the valley, where the Spiritual Energy was abundant, the birds sang, and the flowers bloomed, like a paradise.
"So many spiritual herbs!"
In the valley, a large number of spiritual herbs were planted, all of which were extremely rare and precious.
"These spiritual herbs must be at least several thousand years old?"
Looking at these spiritual herbs, Xiao Yifeng couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Each of these spiritual herbs is over ten thousand years old!"
Long Qian spoke.
"Over ten thousand years? This is..."
Xiao Yifeng was stunned upon hearing Long Qian’s words.
Spiritual herbs over ten thousand years old were simply unimaginable.
There was also a thatched hut here, suggesting someone had once secluded themselves here.
"Could it be that a super strong individual secluded themselves here ten thousand years ago and planted these spiritual herbs?"
Xiao Yifeng couldn’t help but say.
"Most likely, that illusion formation outside is at least of the seventh or eighth order, but because it’s been too long, the formation’s energy has gradually dissipated, allowing you to break through it so easily."
Long Qian spoke directly.
"I never imagined that a strong individual lived here ten thousand years ago."
Xiao Yifeng looked with an expression of wonder.
Following this, Xiao Yifeng entered the thatched hut, where everything was neatly arranged.
At a glance, Xiao Yifeng noticed several items placed on a wooden bed beside him.
On this bed was a token made of some unknown material, with a "Void" character engraved on it.
Besides this token, there was also a jade slip and a jade token, in addition to a rectangular tombstone engraved with various mysterious and eerie inscriptions.
"That jade token is a transmission jade token, pick it up and inject a bit of energy to see!"
Long Qian said directly.
Xiao Yifeng picked it up, injecting a bit of energy into the jade token.
Immediately, the jade token emitted a light, forming the apparition of a powerful male figure in the void.
This figure had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, exuding an imposing majesty that could dominate heaven and earth, and though it was just a phantom, it gave Xiao Yifeng the urge to kneel in worship.
"I am the Nothingness Sword Sovereign, having wandered the universe for tens of thousands of years. I encountered a mysterious tombstone, allegedly containing the most powerful force in the universe, should one decipher its inscriptions. Thus, I secluded myself here, day and night, comprehending the tombstone’s inscriptions."
"After ten thousand years, I still could not fathom them, so I leave this tombstone behind for a destined individual to comprehend, along with a fragment of fortune and all Sword Dao insights I have comprehended over tens of thousands of years, stored in this jade slip, as a form of inheritance. I hope someone who inherits it will live up to my name as the Nothingness Sword Sovereign."
With that, the phantom vanished, and the jade pendant shattered.
"Nothingness Sword Sovereign, what a dominant name. Have you heard of such a strong one, senior?"
Xiao Yifeng spoke.
"I have not, but to dare use the title Sovereign implies that this strong one’s power is truly frightening, likely at least at the Dominant Realm, especially as someone skilled in Sword Dao!"
Long Qian said in a deep voice.
"Dominant Realm, so powerful?"
A shocked light flickered in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes as he murmured the name Nothingness Sword Sovereign.
Then Xiao Yifeng picked up the jade slip and said, "Contained within this is the Nothingness Sword Sovereign’s insight into Sword Dao, which is a great opportunity!"
"Sword Dao is a very powerful cultivation path within martial arts, where its practitioners practice the sword, comprehend Swordsmanship Profundities, and the strong ones who master Sword Dao can destroy heaven and earth with a single sword. The Heart Sword previously was a Sword Path genius!"
Long Qian spoke.
"Sword Dao is undoubtedly powerful, but I don’t practice the sword. I still prefer the imposing presence of a blade!"
Xiao Yifeng said calmly.
"Give the jade slip to Jian Yun; his Sword Talent is strong too, and his name bears ’sword.’ With this jade slip, his understanding of Sword Dao will surely advance greatly, paired with the Emperor-grade Sword, the Kunlun Sword, the power would be terrifying!"
Xiao Yifeng said, having made up his mind, he placed the jade slip into the Asura Ring.
Then, Xiao Yifeng set his eyes on the tombstone, which the Nothingness Sword Sovereign had found coincidentally and reportedly comprehending it would grant the most powerful force in the universe.
Unfortunately, the Nothingness Sword Sovereign spent ten thousand years, yet could not fathom it.
Xiao Yifeng activated his perspective eye to examine the tombstone but found nothing.
"Senior, have you seen anything unusual about this tombstone?"
Xiao Yifeng asked.
"No, but for a Dominant Realm Expert to spend ten thousand years on it, it surely isn’t simple. The inscriptions seem to be from an ancient era."
Long Qian said.
"Ancient era?"
Xiao Yifeng was surprised.
"From the world’s genesis, through to now, it’s divided into the Ancient, Antiquity, and the present era. The Ancient Times were when the primal world thrived, martial arts were at their peak. Antiquity comes from when the Ancient Realm was established, and then there’s the present era."
Long Qian explained.
