Chapter 1159: Unparalleled Sword Inten

t

Fei Lengyi thought for a long time before saying, “I’ll work with you for the time being, but I will not lower myself to your level.”

Smiling, Jin Liangqi said, “This is good. Everyone will be satisfied with this. However, there is only one problem: all the Geomasters are dead. It will be difficult to enter the Blood Sword Sovereign’s cave, which is deep underground.”

“There is no need to go to all that trouble. We will just work together and break apart this mountain range and the ground,” Bing Xuejian said in a calm and casual manner.

Jin Liangqi hesitated and said, “Attacking together is not difficult. However, we will end up exhausting a lot of Law Energy, which is not exactly a good thing.”

Bing Xuejian revealed an expression of disdain. Then, he pulled out the Ice Blood Sword and said, “I’ll be the main attacking force. You all can simply assist from the side.”

After that, he turned around and hacked down on the tall mountain range with his sword.

A scarlet sword light flickered on the sword, looking like a large pillar of light connecting the sky to the ground. It even contained an unparalleled, bone-chilling sword intent, which made everyone’s hair stand on end.

Several quasi-Emperors thought to themselves, This Bing Xuejian’s sword soul must have reached seventy-percent comprehension at least, a Great Perfection sword soul. As for his will of ice, he already raised it to its limits and perfectly merged it with his sword soul; there are no weaknesses.

Before the shocked gazes of the many quasi-Emperors, this scarlet sword light chopped the entire mountain range in half. Then, the snowy mountain crumbled with a loud noise.

The collapsing snowy mountain triggered a chain reaction, instantly setting off avalanches rumbling everywhere. The ground within fifty kilometers trembled endlessly like an earthquake.

Fei Lengyi, Jin Liangqi, and the others made their moves after this, attacking together. They pulled up the ground that was under the mountain range.

Incredibly huge clumps of dirt floated in the air, covering the sky. Dust flew everywhere along with snow. The entire place turned chaotic.

After the chaos settled down, the mountain range no longer existed, replaced by an enormous ten-kilometer-deep pit in the ground. A half-exposed cave could be seen at the bottom of the pit, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!” Many figures flashed, speeding towards the cave. It went without saying that it was the entrance to the Blood Sword Sovereign’s cave.

After that, the thousands of quasi-Emperors trailing the Consummation quasi-Emperors, intending to gain some benefits, immediately followed at their heels. In that instant, everyone disappeared. The originally lively snowy mountain was gone with not a single living person in sight.

After a while, two figures—one male and one female—appeared at the edge of the enormous pit.

The male was dressed in white, and his appearance looked delicate. He emanated an indescribable loneliness and pride. He gave the feeling of being colder than ice despite his expressionless countenance.

The female was as pretty as a flower, as clear as ice, and as clean as jade, even purer than the white snow. She possessed an appearance that could bring down a kingdom, looking like a fairy and radiating a very natural aura. As she stood in this snowland, she looked extremely charming.

Ordinary men would not dare to look her in the eye, lacking the courage to gaze directly at that heavenly face.

Naturally, this pair was Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun. After they realized that there were half-step Martial Emperors interfering with the search for the cave, they became much more cautious. They did not charge forward in the front line. Instead, they followed behind everyone and watched how the situation unfolded.

The two had seen the earlier scene.

“Things are getting increasingly complicated. With the unexpected appearance of two half-step Martial Emperors, the difficulty of obtaining the Life and Death Art has increased greatly.”

Although Yue Bingyun did not look optimistic, she did not have a desperate expression. Instead, she just commented on the increased difficulty.

Xiao Chen looked at Yue Bingyun and prompted, “Now that we’ve reached this point, shouldn’t you tell me what your trump card is?”

She smiled and replied, “You will naturally find out when the time comes. I still owe you for the Heavenly Origin Pill. I will definitely put in my full effort to help you to obtain the Life and Death Art. So rest assured.”

Since Yue Bingyun said that, Xiao Chen did not push the matter. He looked at the dark pit and suddenly frowned just as he was about to descend. “There is a bloody stench!”

“I can smell it too. However, isn’t this normal? There are those who are not strong enough but still want to try and gain some benefits. It would be hard to avoid losses.”

Xiao Chen shook his head and replied, “It is not normal. The amount of blood lost is really not normal; it is much more than when someone dies. Otherwise, the bloody stench in the air would not be this strong.

“This place is weird. We should be more careful when we enter.”

Xiao Chen took the lead, flying towards the cave while holding his Lunar Shadow Saber.

When the two arrived at the dark cave entrance, the bloody stench became even more oppressive, nearly suffocating and unbearable.

After they walked some distance, precious stones that gave off light appeared on the ceiling of the cave, relieving the darkness. The walls on the left and right were very smooth with clear marks of carving. As the two went further in, they started to see some vague scenes depicted on the walls. These should be the casual handiwork of the Blood Sword Sovereign.

These scenes were mostly of sword dances.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and touched the person depicted in the carving. A strong sword intent entered his mind through the sculpture. It was like the person there came to life and charged at him.

Xiao Chen quickly let go and retreated a few steps. The lightning saber soul in his sea of consciousness came out with a thought and crushed the sword intent coming from the painting.

He looked at the wall carving again with astonishment. The casual work of the Blood Sword Sovereign actually still held such might after fifty thousand years. This was truly shocking.

If Xiao Chen were a swordsman, he would definitely stop and examine this sculpture carefully. He would surely receive many gains that might even aid a sword soul’s growth.

Unfortunately, he was a bladesman. Although the wall carving was profound, it was not of much use to him.

Xiao Chen continued walking forward. More and more forks in the road appeared. He wondered what the Blood Sword Sovereign was thinking back then to have made such a grand and complicated cultivation cave.

Amid the bloody stench, the two finally stumbled upon the first corpse. This corpse was that of an old man. He was already desiccated, the skin and bones having fused together. His eyes were sunken, and a large amount of dried blood clung to his neck.

Xiao Chen studied the wounds at the neck and discovered two bloody holes, which looked like they were caused by sharp teeth.

There were many ferocious beasts that sucked blood in the Kunlun Realm. Xiao Chen himself was aware of at least three. However, the scene before him, as well as the wounds and marks, made him and Yue Bingyun immediately think of a certain possibility.

This was the work of a Blood Demon, one of the eighteen Demon Races of the Deep Abyss Demonic World. Furthermore, it was not one of the low-ranked Blood Demons; otherwise, it would not have such teeth. No wonder the bloody stench was so strong. It would be strange if there was no bloody stench, given the presence of these Blood Demons.

“It looks like the rumors of the Blood Sword Sovereign being a human-Demon mixed-blood is true. Furthermore, his Demon side is the mysterious and troublesome Blood Demon,” Yue Bingyun said.

Xiao Chen looked up and was about to say something when he suddenly saw a shadow silently descend towards Yue Bingyun from the ceiling.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen quickly drew his saber without even thinking. Then, he chopped that descending shadow in half.

When the two halves of that shadow fell to the ground, they quickly merged back together, forming an ugly human-shaped monster with sharp teeth. Its entire body was wrinkled, and it stank of blood.

It looked completely different from the Blood Demons that Xiao Chen knew.

Many figures dropped from the ceiling, and numerous bloodsucking monsters appeared, surrounding Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun in this rather vast stone room.

A rough count came to at least twenty of these monsters.

Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun both did not dare to be careless. For quasi-Emperors to die at the hands of these bloodsucking monsters, something had to be extraordinary about them.

The two stood back to back, cautiously looking around on full alert.

“Thank you for the rescue,” Yue Bingyun said gratefully as a rainbow ribbon appeared in her hands.

Xiao Chen had already drawn his Lunar Shadow Saber. He said calmly, “There is no need to say anything else. We should deal with this problem before us first.”

These bloodsucking monsters all stared at the two with bloodshot eyes. A disgusting liquid dribbled out from the corners of their mouths as they kept hissing. They looked like they would launch themselves over at any moment.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The black figures flickered. After sizing the two up for a while, these bloodsucking monsters turned into flashes of shadows flying at the two. They were so fast that they were visible only as shadows.

Xiao Chen activated the Fleeting Shadow Gloves, and his saber flickered with sparks. He merged in his lightning saber soul and shot out a dense saber light.

The saber light flickered with electricity as he chopped off the heads and hands of the bloodsucking monsters attacking them. None of the monsters could get near him.

Yue Bingyun was even more violent than Xiao Chen. The ribbon in her hand shot out even faster than the bloodsucking monsters. The ribbon wrapped around the head of every bloodsucking monster that charged towards her and crushed it, sending blood spurting everywhere.

In this high-speed exchange, the two knocked back all the twenty-odd bloodsucking monsters. Many of the monsters squirmed on the ground, missing arms or heads.

These monsters were not as difficult to deal with as the two had thought. It looked like they were just some weak monsters. The truly troublesome ones were probably behind.

Just as the two were about to release their bated breath, the bloodsucking monsters on the ground suddenly got up. Their missing arms and heads rapidly regenerated. They appeared very ferocious and sinister as they opened their jaws wide and charged at the two again.

This repeated three times. The two’s expressions changed. Are these monsters immortal?

“Xiao Chen, these might be human cultivators that Blood Demons had bitten. For some reason, they mutated.”

As Xiao Chen knocked back the charging bloodsucking monsters, he asked quickly, “Is there any way to resolve this?”

“For now, there is none. They must have been bitten by the Blood Sword Sovereign. Otherwise, they would not be so hard to handle.”

When Xiao Chen heard that, he entered deep thought. They could not just continue like this. Although he did not believe there were monsters that could not be killed, they would not be able to reach the depths of this cave if they kept fighting this way.

The two needed to crack this problem. Xiao Chen quickly tried to figure out a solution. Then, he thought, I wonder if using a saber soul of a different attribute would be effective?

Aside from the lightning saber soul, the ones that Xiao Chen was the most comfortable with were the death saber soul and ruin saber soul. Perhaps the death saber soul might show some unexpected effects on these monsters.

Xiao Chen put his thoughts into action immediately. He swapped out the mighty lightning saber soul and merged the state of death from the Cycle Banner and the saber soul together.
