Seeing that he had made up his mind, Su Ye did not say anything else. He only said, “Try to communicate with the sword with your primordial spirit. If you can, try to integrate the sword into your primordial spirit. However, you remember that this period of time is very dangerous. Once you start, there is no way out.”

“Alright …”

Xiao Chen’s gaze froze, and he didn’t say anything else. He slowly picked up Di Gu and gently stroked the sword. At this moment, the sword resonated with him once again, continuously letting out soft cries.

“Wait …”

Hua Weiyang’s expression changed slightly as he walked towards him. However, at this moment, she did not know what to say. Even she did not know why she cared so much about him.

Xiao Chen shook his head and looked at her. “There are still many people from the Tai Shi Dao Sect outside. Madam Xian Shu and the others are also trapped in the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm … Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”

At this point, he lowered his head to look at the faint bloody scar on the sword’s body and continued, “Legends are only legends after all, not necessarily all of them …”

Hua Weiyang finally stopped talking. Actually, she also understood that there was a plan for everything. The people of Tai Shi Dao Sect tried their best to obtain the peerless profound weapon under the abyss, but they were stopped. She and Xiao Chen were chased into the abyss and found the Di Gu Sword that had been lost for tens of thousands of years.

Perhaps all of this had been decided long ago. It was not man-made, it was not the will of heaven, it was destined.

“You guys … go outside.”

Xiao Chen slowly picked up his sword. Su Ye did not say anything else. He turned around and walked out of the hall. Hua Weiyang glanced at him and also walked out of the hall.

When she and Su Ye arrived outside the hall, Xiao Chen activated the Primordial Spirit Technique. At this moment, the entire ancient hall was in a violent wind. The Di Gu Sword suddenly trembled non-stop, emitting sharp golden rays that illuminated the originally dark abyss.

An imperial aura that intimidated the world pierced towards the top of the abyss. At this moment, everyone on the abyss felt inexplicably stifled. Under this aura, the swords in their hands began to tremble.

“What … what’s going on! My sword … how can it be!”

Quite a few people discovered that their swords had suddenly trembled. Most of them were people from the Profound Sect, and most of them were cultivating immortal swords. How could they not sense the immortal swords that they had cultivated for many years? At this moment, their swords seemed to have been intimidated by something. They became uneasy, terrified, afraid …

Swords also had spirituality. Just like mortals, when a Foundation Establishment cultivator suddenly encountered a Nascent Soul cultivator, they would naturally reveal fear and reverence. Immortal swords were no exception. The more intelligent an Immortal Sword was, the more it would be.

“How could this be …”

Everyone really didn’t know why the Immortal Sword that they had cultivated for so many years would suddenly tremble and become uneasy at this moment. What exactly happened? However, the Immortal Sword trembled, and this kind of thing was hard to tell. Therefore, at this moment, everyone only revealed expressions of doubt towards each other.

Outside the sword tomb, the people of Tai Shi Dao Sect naturally felt this aura of emperor. The azure-clothed old man’s face was immediately shocked, “It’s Di Gu …”

Obviously, they had discovered that Di Gu was here, so they had been doing everything they could to break through the 100,000-strong forest barrier since two to three years ago. However, there were countless phenomena in the depths of the 100,000-strong forest, attracting countless cultivators, causing their original plan to be hindered. Later, because of Xiao Chen’s appearance, their entire plan was disrupted.

“Great Elder, what should we do now?”

The azure-clothed old man hurriedly walked in front of Elder Mo Yi. His expression was extremely anxious. The aura of an emperor just now indicated that Di Gu had appeared. However, it was still enveloped by layers of Sword Fiend Qi that prevented them from entering. What if the Di Gu Sword fell into Xiao Yichen’s hands?

“There’s no need to be nervous …”

At this moment, Elder Mo Yi appeared exceptionally calm. He stared at the depths of the Sword Tomb and slowly said, “Even if Di Gu appears in the world and falls into his hands, as long as he is unable to use Di Gu’s power, then don’t even think about it … Bring him out alive. There are at most three days left before the Sword Fiend Qi here dissipates …”

At this point he looked at Old man Qingyi and said, “I heard that Mr. Ghost Mist is here this time, isn’t he?”

Hearing this, Old man Qingyi walked forward and whispered, “Mr. Ghost Mist has indeed come. It was thanks to him that we were able to find Lianhua Palace’s location. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have entered the 100,000-strong forest so easily …”

“Mm …”

Elder Moyi nodded slightly and looked into the depths of the Sword Tomb again, not saying a word.

…

Below the Sword Tomb, a strong wind blew in the Ancient Palace. Xiao Chen held the Di Gu Sword in his hand. Streams of Sword Qi surrounded his body and passed through his body. The sword intent also passed through his origin soul. To endure such pain … This pain was absolutely unbearable.

“Xiao Yichen …”

Looking at the scene in the hall, Hua Weiyang’s expression was nervous. Xiao Chen’s face was pale. That Di Gu Sword Qi was constantly passing through his body. How much pain would he have to endure? And he … didn’t even frown at this moment.

“To obtain this sword, one must endure pain that ordinary people cannot endure …”

Hu Ye’s gaze was cold as he slowly spoke. After a while, he said, “Di Gu has existed for a long time. He must have gathered killing intent in his sword. I hope that in the future, he will not be devoured by the killing intent in his sword.”

“Killing Qi … Then why didn’t you say it earlier? You even let him communicate with this sword with his primordial spirit, didn’t you …”

Hua Weiyang’s expression changed slightly. His brows furrowed tightly as he looked at him. At this moment, there was a look of reproach in his eyes.

“Hmph …”

Hu Ye snorted coldly. His hands were still tied to his chest and he said coldly, “Tell me earlier? Could it be that I told you earlier that he would put down this sword?”

“He …”

Hua Weiyang wanted to say something, but in the end, he wanted to say something but stopped. He slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. Even though he was suffering from all sorts of pain, he still wanted to get Di Gu. Why was there still a hatred in his eyes at this moment? In the past, what exactly happened, why did he not remember at all …

…

Three days passed. During these three days, Hua Weiyang had been standing guard outside the ancient hall. He had never closed his eyes for a moment, and Su Ye had never left. It was probably the first time in all these years that he had come out of the Fuxi zither for such a long time.

Ten thousand years ago, his soul was heavily injured and slept in the Fuxi zither. Even though he had woken up now, his soul still hadn’t recovered. The longer he came out, the greater the damage to his soul power would be.

Finally, the wind in the Ancient Palace gradually lessened. The sword qi that filled the sky also gradually gathered. At this moment, Xiao Chen was holding onto Di Gu, and there was a faint imperial aura. The Di Gu Sword seemed to be connected to his origin soul, but at this moment, it was as if it was still one last step away.
