Chapter 359: Holy Land.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
“What is that?”
Chun Yangzi was stunned. He blankly stared at the majestic palace slowly ‘squeezing’ out of the deep Void Passage.
This majestic palace gave Chun Yangzi a feeling of terror. Even the Nine Swords Holy Master was as insignificant as an ant in front of this majestic palace. In the entire Nine Swords Realm, only the central Nine Swords Holy Mountain could be compared to this palace.
It was just that the Nine Swords Holy Mountain was occupied by the Nine Swords Holy Land that was left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li 50,000 years ago.
Originally, in Chun Yangzi’s view, there should be nothing in the world that could be compared to the Nine Swords Holy Mountain.
But now… Chun Yangzi felt his world-view collapsing.
Compared to Chun Yangzi’s shock, the two disciples of the Nine Swords Holy Land were terrified to the core. As disciples of the Holy Land, what they had seen and heard was naturally greater than Chun Yangzi’s knowledge. Therefore, they were more aware of what this majestic and magnificent palace meant.
“Void Passage?”
“Is this a Void Passage?”
The Holy Land disciple on the left looked extremely solemn. The ancient records, handed down in the Nine Swords Holy Land, once mentioned a Void Passage. This rumor was closely related to the Power of Space. The two disciples never thought that they would be able to see it with their own eyes.
“Could it be that this is a treasure from outside the Nine Swords Realm?”
The disciple on the right suddenly thought of something, and a heated look suddenly appeared on his face.
Although the Nine Swords Realm was only a small world, not as vast and powerful as the Immortal Gate, it was comparable to a few dozen of the Tang Empire. So sometimes, there would be treasure that would appear, just like the elixir that Chun Yangzi was waiting for.
But now, this palace that suddenly came out of the Void Passage was definitely far more important than the elixir.
After all, the elixir might be precious, but it was from the Nine Swords Realm. Meanwhile, the palace was suspected of being a treasure from the Heavens. How could the two be compared?
“This is definitely the most precious treasure in the history of the Nine Swords Realm, comparable to the Holy Mountain!”
The other disciple calmed down. He stared at the palace and said in a fiery tone.
50,000 years ago, several ancestors of the Nine Swords Holy Land had occupied the Nine Swords Holy Mountain. With it, the Nine Swords Holy Land dominated the world. This palace should presumably be not much weaker than the Holy Mountain.
“If I can get a hold of this palace, I’m destined to soar into the sky. I might even get rid of the shackles of the Holy Land and create another Holy Land.” The disciple on the right muttered to himself.
Although the Nine Swords Holy Land ruled the Nine Swords Realm, the fact that it was a small world meant that they had limited resources… Even as disciples of the Nine Swords Holy Land, they had to fight over it.
Otherwise, the two of them would not have chased Chun Yangzi for so long just because of a single elixir. The Holy Land had a garden dedicated to herbs. As a whole, a single elixir was nothing for the Holy Land.
But for the disciples, any elixir could allow them to get stronger and strive for a higher status in the Holy Land.
The palace in front of them gave the two disciples new hope. Hope that they could rise further without relying on the Holy Land.
The thoughts of both the disciples cycled rapidly. Of course, they knew that this palace might contain great risks, but so what?
50,000 years ago, the Ancestors of the Nine Swords Holy Land only managed to occupy the Nine Swords Holy Mountain, establishing the Nine Swords Holy Land after numerous tragic deaths and sacrifices.
“The two of us should join forces. But if we encounter an irresistible danger, we will retreat immediately and tell the Holy Land about this.” The disciple on the left said in a deep voice.
If they couldn’t do it, they would naturally choose to tell the Holy Land. After all, the Holy Land would definitely reward them for discovering the palace.
“Be quick.”
“Otherwise, when the Elders arrive, we wouldn’t be able to do anything.”
The disciple on the right nodded and said.
The appearance of the Void Passage had caused the ripples in the space to spread to the entire Nine Swords Realm. After a while, it would definitely disturb the Nine Swords Holy Land. Once the Nine Swords Holy Land found out that something was wrong and investigated it in person, their credit would be cut to less than half.
Taking the initiative to report and having the Holy Land already be aware of it, vs the Holy Land finding out themselves were two completely different things.
Speaking of, the two disciples cautiously flew towards the majestic palace.
Right now, Chun Yangzi, who was not far away, was left behind.
Compared with the palace, the elixir that Chun Yangzi guarded was nothing, so the two disciples were naturally too lazy to pay any more attention to Chun Yangzi.
“I can’t get involved in this matter.”
“I better leave first and at least to keep the elixir.”
Chun Yangzi looked up at the palace and decided in his heart.
Although he was also vaguely aware of the value of this palace, it was clear that the two disciples had already taken the lead.
Chun Yangzi had no other greed right now. He just wanted to leave this place quickly. Otherwise, when the two disciples decided to come back for him, he wouldn’t be able to easily leave.
Thinking of this, Chun Yangzi took one final glance at the disciples.
At this moment, the two disciples were extremely close to the palace. They had even arrived on the steps of the palace, preparing to enter.
However, at this time, Chun Yangzi’s eyes widened.
Under Chun Yangzi’s shocked gaze, a tall figure slowly walked out from the depths of the palace.
Dong dong dong!!!
Low-sounding footsteps echoed to the beat of Chun Yangzi’s heart.
“This?!”
Chun Yangzi looked at the two disciples who were on the steps.
At this moment, the disciples were terrified. They wanted to escape, but the next moment, their bodies began to collapse. Even their Primordial Spirits were rapidly disappearing.
“The Nine Swords Holy Land will not let you go!” One of the disciples said this before he completely turned into nothingness. It was like he had never existed in the first place.
“This is the Nine Swords Realm?”
Su Qin ignored the two disciples, who were both physically and spiritually destroyed, as he turned to look at the sky, “The spirit and vitality is strong here. What were the means used by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li to achieve and maintain this for tens of thousands of years?”
Whether it was the Nine Swords Realm or the Immortal Gate, they were strictly not a “true” world. Therefore, they could not form their own natural vitality and spirit.
Just like in the Immortal Gate, after more than 10,000 years, the vitality and spirit there would begin to degrade. If the Void Passage was not opened again, after a few thousand years, it would naturally dissipate. By then, the existence of Earth Immortals would be extinct.
But the Nine Swords Realm was different.
Su Qin could clearly feel the vitality that permeated every inch of the Nine Swords Realm.
While Su Qin was feeling the Nine Swords Realm carefully.
Chun Yangzi, who was not far away, only felt his scalp go numb. Especially when Su Qin walked out of the War God Temple, an inexplicable aura had enveloped the area within a hundred miles radius.
“It’s, it’s over!”
“Something big has happened, something big has happened!”
Chun Yangzi was sweating coldly, his heart felt uneasy.
Even if he didn’t know Su Qin’s origin, the two disciples dying in Su Qin’s hands was more than enough to show the impending disaster!
One must know that the Nine Swords Holy Land had always been domineering. When has ever the Holy Land had their disciples killed? How could they drop the matter so easily?
When the two disciples wanted to take away the elixir that Chun Yangzi had been guarding for 80 years, why would he prefer to flee for hundreds of thousands of miles rather than trying to resist? The reason was that he did not dare to do so!
Even at the end, Chun Yangzi knew that he had no way out, so he had the intention of perishing together.
Of course, no matter how furious the Nine Swords Holy Land was, all of this had nothing to do with Chun Yangzi. After all, Chun Yangzi didn’t know Su Qin… It was just that when the Gods fight, mortals would suffer.
Even if Chun Yangzi wanted to retreat, how could he escape the aftermath?
While Chun Yangzi was standing motionless, Su Qin turned his eyes slightly and looked at the pale-faced Chun Yangzi.
“Come here.”
Su Qin beckoned towards Chun Yangzi.
Hum!!!
Chun Yangzi only felt darkness in front of him. When he regained his sight, he was already in front of Su Qin.
“Junior… Junior Chun Yangzi greets Senior…” Chun Yangzi was startled, and immediately respectfully bowed to Su Qin.
Chun Yangzi didn’t know Su Qin’s name, but in his heart, Su Qin was at least comparable to an Elder-level existence in the Nine Swords Holy Land.
“Chun Yangzi?”
Su Qin glanced at Chun Yangzi.
With Su Qin’s eyesight, he could naturally see that Chun Yangzi was just a 6th Heavenly Layer Legend. As for the two Holy Land disciples who tried to approach the War God Temple just now, they were almost in the same realm.
“Who is the strongest in this world?” Su Qin thought for a while and asked bluntly.
Su Qin already knew that the Qi in the Nine Swords Realm was only at the Peak of Return To Origin Phase.
But the specific situation in the Nine Swords Realm, like which forces rule and whether there were any means left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li was still unknown.
After all, whether it was the [Eyes of Truth] or the [Celestial Eyes], they could only see the Qi in the world.
Of course, that was not to say that they were inferior to the Demon God’s Eye. It was just that their focus was different and could not be compared.
“The strongest?”
Chun Yangzi was slightly taken aback, and could not respond immediately.
In the Nine Swords Realm, as long as one entered the Martial Dao, who did not know that the Nine Swords Holy Land was the absolute master of the world? Naturally, the strongest person in the world came from the Nine Swords Holy Land.
Chun Yangzi also realized that in Su Qin’s question just now, Su Qin called the Nine Swords Realm ‘this world’?
Being able to say the words ‘in this world’ meant that Su Qin was probably not from the Nine Swords Realm. Otherwise, how could he say it in such a detached tone?
Thinking of this, Chun Yangzi, who had just calmed down, once again felt his heart shake.
An existence from outside the world… Although Chun Yangzi was not as able to browse Holy Land’s records, he was still clear on what this meant.
According to legends, the Supreme God who created the Nine Swords Realm, the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li, came from outside the world…
“Hmm?”
Su Qin frowned slightly when he saw that Chun Yangzi didn’t speak.
The reason why he left Chun Yangzi alive was because he wanted to inquire information about the Nine Swords Realm through him.
The Nine Swords Realm was the world opened by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li, who was in the top three existences that Su Qin had come into contact with. He was only second to the one who left the 3000 Illusions Domain; the white-clothed and white-haired old man, as well as the first master of the War God Temple; Hou Yuan.
“Senior.”
“The strongest person in the world today should be the Holy Master of the Nine Swords Holy Land.” Chun Yangzi seemed to sense Su Qin’s dissatisfaction, and cold sweat quickly broke out on his forehead, as he immediately replied.
“The Nine Swords Holy Land?”
Su Qin repeated in a low voice, and then asked: “Is it an inheritance left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li?”
Su Qin looked solemn.
If it was really an inheritance, then Su Qin had to be careful.
Su Qin only confirmed the strongest Qi. It did not include the backhand left by the Supreme Powerhouse.
Su Qin might suffer a huge loss if Jiu Li left many means in the Nine Swords Holy Land.
Although in the past tens of thousands years, even Jiu Li’s means would not retain their peak, he was an expert at the Broken Void Realm after all.
“Inheritance left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li?”
Chun Yangzi quickly shook his head and said: “Senior, the Nine Swords Holy Land only occupies the Holy Mountain where the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li once secluded himself. It was not the inheritance left by him.”
Although the Nine Swords Holy Land once wanted to completely cover up this history, and they claimed to be the orthodox inheritance left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li, even the Nine Swords Holy Land could never enter the top of the Holy Mountain.
In this way, no matter how the Nine Swords Holy Land tried to hide it, it would only add to the joke.
If the Nine Swords Holy Land was truly left by the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li, how could they be unable to climb to the top of the Holy Mountain?
“So that’s it.”
Su Qin nodded slightly.
While Su Qin took the War God Temple and entered the Nine Swords Realm, in the center of the world, there was a holy mountain that was thousands of feet high.
Somewhere near the top of the mountain, in a majestic hall, a tall figure sitting cross-legged suddenly opened their eyes and looked at the trembling Divine Sword in front of them in shock.
“The Divine Sword’s Spirit.”
“This is an aura from outside the Nine Swords Realm?”
