The two of them looked at each other and pondered. What exactly was inside the Sword Tomb that gave rise to such a powerful aura?

Right at this moment, a violent shock suddenly came from the distant Sword Tomb. The two of them immediately regained their senses and looked over. They saw the originally clear sky suddenly rolling with black clouds.

As if the apocalypse was coming, the boundless black clouds instantly enveloped the entire Sword Tomb. Inside the Sword Tomb, countless sword shadows suddenly flew into the air, continuously emitting fiendish sounds.

“That’s …”

Hua Weiyang’s gaze narrowed slightly. Such a scene could be said to be extremely shocking. Probably, only a strange place like the depths of a hundred thousand dense forests could see it. The sword shadows that covered the sky were curled up. If it was outside, what kind of uproar would it cause?

“It’s the Ancient Sword Soul …”

Xiao Chen frowned deeply. Generally speaking, the so-called sword spirits were aimed at those swords that were more intelligent. Over time, sword spirits would be derived from such swords. If the sword spirits were strong enough, they would be able to cultivate into powerful sword spirits after thousands of years. The sword spirits could already be considered living creatures.

Of course, some sword souls are very powerful, but for various reasons, they are unable to cultivate a sword spirit. This is not strange. Some sword souls are gentle, some are cruel, some are righteous, some are evil, some are extremely vicious, and some are not fond of slaughter …

And at this moment … Xiao Chen truly did not expect that there would be so many ancient sword souls here. No wonder they were called “sword tombs”. It seemed that they were truly the tombs of swords, burying countless sword souls.

However, why were these sword souls gathered here? It was as if he was bound by something, unable to leave, and what exactly was it that was able to bind these countless ancient sword souls?

“Fiend Fiend! Fiend Fiend Fiend!”

The black clouds in midair were rolling endlessly, and the sword spirits in the sky were suddenly filled with hostility. They continuously emitted fiendish sounds, and an extremely heavy baleful aura gradually spread out, causing one to feel slightly uneasy.

“Someone’s coming.”

Hua Weiyang was very sensitive to Spiritual Energy. At this moment, he suddenly sensed Spiritual Energy’s aura in the distance. At this moment, Xiao Chen’s divine sense was sharp. He also sensed a powerful aura approaching from afar.

The two of them immediately concealed their auras. Suddenly, a dozen figures appeared in front of them. These people were not from Tai Shi Dao Sect. It was unknown which sects in the Immortal Origin Five Regions they belonged to, or some wandering loose people. However, their auras were extremely strong. Their cultivation levels were presumably very high, and they were far from being comparable to those cultivators outside.

“The sword souls here are coming out again … Quickly! Quickly go find them!”

The dozen or so people suddenly flew into the black clouds. Because of their sudden entry, countless sword souls on the sky became even more violent and began to attack these uninvited guests who had intruded into the Sword Tomb.

“Some of these sword souls are very powerful … Be careful!”

Even though their cultivation levels weren’t low, they were extremely cautious at this moment. No matter how high their cultivation levels were, facing these ancient sword souls, the slightest bit of carelessness would lead to a tragic end of being devoured by ten thousand swords. Many people had already been swallowed up by these ancient sword souls because of their carelessness. Therefore, no one dared to be careless at this moment.

“We must find the black sword soul … Quick!”

The dozen or so people moved quickly. As they spoke, they condensed a layer of protective true essence on their bodies to avoid being attacked by these ancient sword souls.

Not long after, Suddenly, more than a dozen figures flew over from afar. The cultivations of the dozen or so people weren’t weak either. When the dozen or so people saw someone approaching, the azure-clothed old man who had the highest cultivation immediately stood out as if he was protecting his own domain. He said loudly, “Fellow Daoists, this is the sword soul region we found. If you want to search for the Profound Heaven Sword Soul, please go somewhere else.”

The difference in strength between the two sides was not big. At this moment, neither of them wanted to start a conflict here. Then, the dozen or so people looked over and did not say anything else before heading to the other side.

After about an incense stick of time, the rolling black clouds gradually dissipated, and the countless ancient sword souls slowly returned to the Sword Tomb. The surroundings became quiet, as if nothing had happened.

“Sigh …”

Looking at the Sword Tomb that was gradually regaining its tranquility, the azure-clothed old man in the lead sighed, his face full of disappointment. Obviously, they had not found what they wanted in that short period of time just now.

At this moment, the rest of them walked over. Among them, four middle-aged men were bleeding from their arms. They must have been injured by those sword souls just now.

The green-clothed old man frowned slightly and looked at them, “How are your injuries?”

“It doesn’t matter. The Sword Fiend Qi has already been pushed out. It’s fine.”

A middle-aged man dressed in red nodded. The green-clothed old man didn’t say anything further after hearing this. He nodded slightly, “Go to the next place. We can’t let anyone else find the Profound Heaven Sword Soul first. Otherwise, we won’t be able to enter the Sword Tomb.”

After a while, Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang walked out from behind the boulder after the dozen or so people had disappeared without a trace. Looking in the direction where the people had left, Hua Weiyang’s face flashed with doubt, “They seem to be looking for something …”

“Xuantian Sword Soul.”

Said Xiao Chen. He had just heard from that Old man Qingyi that those people were looking for some black sword soul called Xuantian Sword Soul.

“Xuantian Sword Soul …”

Hua Weiyang pondered for a moment. At this moment, he seemed to have thought of something. He gently crossed his hands in front of his chest and closed his eyes to carefully sense the depths of the Sword Tomb. After about half an incense stick of time, he slowly opened his eyes and said, “I understand! I know why they are looking for the Xuantian Sword Soul …”

“Why?”

Xiao Chen Spiritual Energy was inferior to her. She didn’t know what she sensed at this moment. Hua Weiyang turned around and looked at him. “Those people, they can’t enter the depths of the Sword Tomb. I just sensed that there is an extremely heavy layer of Sword Fiend Qi outside the depths of the Sword Tomb. No one can cross it. If they forcefully cross it, their hearts will be burned by the Sword Fiend Qi.”

After listening to her words, Xiao Chen also roughly understood, and said, “As for the Profound Heaven Sword Soul, it can protect them from being corroded by the Sword Fiend Qi. Is that so?”

“Yes.”

Hua Weiyang nodded, “That’s right, that’s right. The thing that is about to appear is definitely in the depths of the Sword Tomb. Unfortunately, those people can only watch from the outside and can’t enter. Presumably, the people from the Supreme Origin Dao Sect won’t be able to enter this time …”

Xiao Chen’s gaze narrowed slightly. “In that case, as long as we find the Profound Heaven Sword Soul, we can enter the Sword Tomb …”

“Yes!”

Hua Weiyang nodded again and said, “How about we go in and take a look?”

“Wait for now …”

Xiao Chen shook his hand and looked up at the sky. It was already dark. He said, “Those ancient sword souls were extremely powerful just now. The Sword Tomb at night must be even more dangerous. It’s almost evening. We shouldn’t take this risk. We’ll go in tomorrow morning.”
