As the Universe Turns - Chapter 569

Chapter 569 Emperor Qi
Seeing that she was sensing Xiao Chen with her eyes closed, Spiritual Energy stood aside and did not disturb her. After a while, when she opened her eyes, she asked, “But where did she sense it?”

“Vaguely, it’s very far away. I can probably tell the direction. Let’s go.”

As Hua Weiyang spoke, he was about to continue onward when Xiao Chen suddenly stopped her. “Wait, don’t be in a hurry. This place is dangerous and unknown. It’s not suitable to travel at night.”

“En … that’s good too.”

Hua Weiyang thought for a moment before stopping. At this moment, it was the most dangerous place in the Land of Ancient Desolation. Not only were there some terrifying beasts, there were also other cultivators. Rather than rushing through the night, it was better to find a place to discuss the next countermeasures.

Night fell silently. There were many caves in the mountains, but they had to find a place to hide. One was to prevent other cultivators from discovering them, and the other was to avoid being attacked by some ferocious beasts.

About an incense stick later, the sky had already completely darkened. The two of them found a cave in the middle of the cliff. The top was a cliff, and the bottom was an abyss. It was very secret.

It was not until midnight that the two of them came up with a plan to enter the Sword Tomb. Although they had first entered the depths of the 100,000-strong forest, there were delays in the middle of the forest. Therefore, there must already be many cultivators outside the Sword Tomb, and the cultivators outside would continue to rush over.

In this way, even if they were able to enter the Sword Tomb and obtain such a secret treasure, it was almost impossible for them to take it away from the eyes of countless people.

Hua Weiyang said, “The two elders of Tai Shi Dao Sect have very high cultivation levels. They are probably already experts of the Quasi-Cave Ruins Realm. If we join forces, we might not be their match. Therefore, we absolutely cannot force them over.”

Xiao Chen remained silent. He thought back to the sixty years he had been trapped in the Twelve-fingered Heart Demon Forbidden Land in the God and Demon Tomb. It was a great opportunity for him. It was precisely because of those sixty years that he had comprehended Soul Transformation, and his cultivation had improved countless times. If he could do it again, he was confident that he would be able to truly become a Soul Transformation cultivator.

Once he truly transformed into a god, his cultivation would definitely not be comparable to those so-called Soul Formation cultivators. It was no exaggeration to say that after he successfully transformed into a god, these Soul Formation cultivators were no different from those Foundation Establishment cultivators who had cultivated for decades in front of him.

Unfortunately, opportunities like this were often fortuitous. Just like when he met that old beggar in the mortal Azure Continent City, the other party taught him a set of Trinity Swords.

This sword was extremely useful. Although he had only comprehended the first form of the Human Sword, this sword was no small matter. It would definitely be of great use to him in the future. This was also a rare opportunity.

“How are your injuries?” Seeing that he was silent, Hua Weiyang asked.

“I’m fine now.”

Xiao Chen shook his head. He thought to himself that back in Qingzhou City, that senior had taught him the Three Talents Sword. Currently, he only mastered the Human Sword. The Human Sword had sacrificed 30% of its true essence, so he didn’t know if it could be used.

The Myriad Bones Formation he had brought out from the White Bone City of the Divine Demon Tomb was used once in the Tibetan Feng Valley. It might not be effective this time, and the Fuxi Zither could no longer be used easily. Apart from that, there was only one thing left, which was the Golden Crow Feet he had accidentally found on his way to Yang Valley to find the Fusang Flower.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen slowly took out the Golden Crow’s foot from his sleeve. There was a faint layer of scarlet golden light on it, and when he looked closely, he could see that there were many cracks on it.

The Golden Crow Foot was an ancient divine artifact. Its power was enormous. Unfortunately, it had been damaged quite a bit and it was difficult to release its original power. Furthermore, Xiao Chen had used it twice before, causing the divine artifact to be even more damaged. Even if he searched for countless skilled craftsmen in the world, it would still be difficult to repair it.

“What is this?”

Hua Weiyang looked curiously at the strange claws he took out at this moment. Even though she was knowledgeable, she had never seen such a strange thing. It was like a magic treasure forged from pure gold. However, there were countless skilled craftsmen in the world, yet who could forge such a realistic bird claw?

“This is the Golden Crow Foot …”

Xiao Chen said slowly. He recalled all the things he had gone to the East Continent to find the Fusang Flower. If it wasn’t for the Golden Crow’s feet, he wouldn’t have been able to kill Yun Tianzi that time.

“Golden Crow Feet …”

Hua Weiyang looked at the thing in front of him curiously and said, “Legend has it that the Golden Crow has three legs. Could this be the third leg of the Golden Crow? This is really interesting …”

“Yes.”

Xiao Chen nodded. He didn’t know if it was the Golden Crow’s third foot, but it was definitely an ancient divine artifact. He said, “This Golden Crow foot is an ancient divine artifact. I accidentally obtained it. Its power is enormous. However, when I obtained this Golden Crow foot, it was already severely damaged. Now that I can use it one last time, it will probably be completely damaged.”

At the end of his sentence, he handed the Golden Crow Foot to Hua Weiyang and said, “Put this on your body.”

“Give it to me?”

Hua Weiyang was stunned for a moment. Although such a divine artifact was about to be destroyed, it was also a life-saving item in a critical moment. If the two of them were to encounter danger after going to the Sword Tomb, wouldn’t he be giving the Golden Crow Foot to him now? Wouldn’t he be giving him the last chance to survive?

Seeing that she was stunned, Xiao Chen slowly handed the Golden Crow Foot to her and said, “The Golden Crow Foot is very powerful. When using it, be careful not to hurt yourself.”

“But …”

Hua Weiyang lowered her head and looked at the Golden Crow Foot in her hand. She had never been a shy person, but for some reason, she was feeling very embarrassed. She raised her head and said, “You gave the Golden Crow Foot to me. What about yourself?”

“Don’t worry, it won’t be that easy for them to kill me.”

Xiao Chen said indifferently. Seeing that she still had something to say, he added, “Tomorrow morning, at dawn, we will set off for the Sword Tomb.”

“Alright, alright …”

Hua Weiyang slowly put away the Golden Crow’s feet, but in his heart, he thought, Is it really what Xian Shu said? Right now, only he would not harm him outside. But why is it like this? What kind of memory did he lose? Why can’t he remember at all? What exactly happened between him and him …

…

The next morning, the two of them rushed towards the Sword Tomb. By the time they arrived near it, it was already the afternoon of the third day. The two of them didn’t dare to reveal themselves too much, because there were already quite a few cultivators nearby. Apart from the two Supreme Origin Dao Sect elders with extremely high cultivation levels, there were also other mysterious experts hiding nearby.

“I can sense it …”

The two of them were hiding behind a huge boulder. Hua Weiyang’s expression was grave as he said, “I don’t know what that thing is, but I can sense that this extraordinary object even has a suffocating aura of … an emperor.”

“Emperor aura?”

Hearing her say this, Xiao Chen finally understood what was going on. No wonder he felt a suffocating pressure from the moment he arrived here. It turned out to be an imperial aura from the Sword Tomb?

Exactly what was it that gave rise to such an imperial aura that made one submit?
