Chapter 617 - Out of the Sword Tomb
Chapter 617: Chapter 617 – Out of the Sword Tomb
Listening to Xiao Han’s words, Song Qingruo’s gaze was filled with doubt. However, out of her trust in Xiao Han, she still nodded and subconsciously reached out to grab the ancient sword in front of her.
A cold sensation instantly entered her palm, giving her a unique experience. After the coldness, there was an inexplicable sense of warmth. It was as if she was in the middle of a fire. The feeling was very unique, as if she was in a ball of fire, being burned by the fire.
However, this process was not painful. On the contrary, it was very comfortable.
An inexplicable power surged from the ancient sword in front of her, following the inexplicable connection, and surged into the two of them. Sensing all this, Song Qingruo was stunned and did not react.
In her body, the power that emerged from the ancient sword was warming her body and mind, slowly improving her body.
Previously, because of the Sword of Buddha, almost half of the sword body origin in Song Qingruo’s body had been forcibly taken away. At this moment, her body was in an unprecedentedly weak state. Even her own cultivation was on the verge of regressing.
But at this moment, the situation was different. As that power surged in, Song Qingruo’s body began to recover. Even her origin, which had already been weakened to the limit, felt strengthened once again.
Under the nourishment of this power, Song Qingruo’s aura began to recover, and her pale face once again turned blood-red. This kind of power was shocking.
“How is it?”
Xiao Han’s voice came from the side. Standing beside her, he looked at Song Qingruo in front of him and asked with concern.
“It’s really magical...”
Song Qingruo couldn’t help but sigh as she felt the changes in her body. At this moment, she also understood what was going on.
‘There’s actually such a good fortune in this world...’
All sorts of thoughts flashed through her mind, and then she sighed, somewhat amazed. At this point, she also understood some things.
For example, Xiao Han back then. In the beginning, Xiao Han was just an ordinary disciple of the Qionghua Sword Sect. He didn’t have any outstanding talent, nor did he have any background. Compared to a Heavenly Gifted Individual like Song Qingruo, he was like the difference between heaven and earth.
However, ever since he returned from the Sword Tomb, Xiao Han seemed to have changed into a different person. Not only did he make a huge breakthrough in his cultivation, but his talent was even more outstanding. It was amazing.
In the past, Song Qingruo thought that this was because Xiao Han had deliberately hidden himself in the past. But now that she thought about it, it was probably not the case.
The reason why he was able to undergo such a change was all because of the ancient sword in front of them. All sorts of thoughts flashed through her mind, and Song Qingruo was somewhat relieved.
In front of her, the power transmitted by the ancient sword gradually weakened, and finally, it almost disappeared.
Xiao Han and Song Qingruo turned around and looked around. As expected, the originally dense origin aura around them had disappeared at this moment. From the looks of it, it seemed that it had been completely absorbed by the ancient sword.
Since the origin had been exhausted, there would naturally be no more feedback to them.
“Let’s go...”
Xiao Han looked around at the desolate scene in the Sword Tomb and said softly.
This trip to the Sword Tomb could be considered to be full of twists and turns. And at this time, it was time for them to leave.
Of course, even if they didn’t leave, the repulsive force of the Sword Tomb would descend.
Normally, the Sword Tomb could be opened for several months at a time. However, the previous battle was too intense. Even for the Sword Tomb, it was enough to cause a huge injury and required a long time to recover.
Under such circumstances, the power of the Sword Tomb was quickly depleted and it was now close to being sealed.
Even if Xiao Han and Song Qingruo wanted to forcefully stay here, they would not be able to stay for long. Rather than that, they might as well leave first. After all, they still had a lot of things to do in the outside world.
After making up their minds, they prepared to cross the teleportation array and leave the Sword Tomb.
However, at this moment, the ancient sword in their hands was trembling. A divine light appeared on it and shone in all directions. In the end, the ancient sword left Xiao Han’s hand and flew into the air.
“What?”
Looking at the appearance of the ancient sword, Xiao Han and Song Qingruo looked at each other in confusion.
“You... Don’t want to leave with us?”
After a moment of silence, Xiao Han looked at the ancient sword in front of him and asked tentatively. He had long known that Heavenly Weapons had spirits. Ordinary Heavenly weapons had their own spirits, let alone the ancient sword in front of them.
With the power of the ancient sword in front of them, the Sword Spirit in it would not be less intelligent than humans or even more. For such a Heavenly Weapon Spirit, if it did not want to, no one would be able to subdue it.
Standing where he was, Xiao Han could not help but feel nervous. The ancient sword in front of him was related to his future path. With the ancient sword’s ability, it was enough to give him great help. It would help him breakthrough and reach a higher level.
Of course, all of this was based on the fact that the ancient sword was willing to leave with him. What if the ancient sword was unwilling to leave with him?
Xiao Han’s heart tightened, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could only silently look at the ancient sword in front of him and feel the radiance that was blossoming within.
Fortunately, that terrible situation did not really happen in the end. In front of him, the ancient sword was blossoming with radiance. It seemed to be hesitating, but it still calmed down and landed on the spot in the end.
Xiao Han immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Sword Spirit in the ancient sword hesitated, it still chose to leave with him in the end.
The worst outcome did not happen.
“What a, fortunately...”
He quickly went forward and carefully put the ancient sword away, then left with Song Qingruo.
In a place where Xiao Han could not find them, Chen Heng looked at the actions of Xiao Han and Song Qingruo and silently shook his head.
“I’ll follow you for a few years.”
He looked at the thick Destiny above Xiao Han’s head, and this thought flashed through his mind.Among the many people that Chen Heng had met so far, Xiao Han was not the most suitable host.
If Chen Heng had to choose someone to be his sword wielder, he would rather choose Song Qingruo than Xiao Han. At the very least, she had an innate sword body. Regardless of talent or cultivation, she was not weak.
On the other hand, other than possessing Destiny, there was nothing else that Xiao Han could compare to. His talent was fine, but it did not matter to Chen Heng. As long as Chen Heng was willing, he could help Xiao Han make up for it at any time.
But he could not help Xiao Han’s talent, willpower, Dao cultivation. Excluding the influence of Destiny, Xiao Han could not even compare to Huo Changliu in these aspects. Naturally, he could not catch Chen Heng’s eye.
As for Destiny? It was a consumable. Perhaps in some stories, the main character would always be the main character, and there would be no changes.
But in the real world, no one was the eternal main character. Destiny would be consumed. The so-called Chosen One would be beaten back to his original form after his Destiny was exhausted. At that time, he would be what he was supposed to be.
The Destiny on Xiao Han’s body was originally quite rich. However, after the previous battle with Huo Changliu, he had already used up nearly half of his Destiny.
This was the price of being a hero. If Xiao Han could assess the situation and protect himself, he wouldn’t have used up so much of his Destiny so quickly. He could still last for a long time.
But now, to protect himself from Huo Changliu, the Destiny on his body had to be depleted faster to find a way to survive. In the end, the duration of the Destiny was greatly shortened.
This was also because Chen Heng had acted in a timely manner. Otherwise, based on the situation at that time, the Destiny on Xiao Han’s body would have been depleted even more severely.
“I hope you won’t regret it in the future.”
Chen Heng shook his head inwardly at Xiao Han and Song Qingruo’s expressions. He wasn’t optimistic about Xiao Han’s future. However, Chen Heng wasn’t against following Xiao Han and leaving.
This was something that he had thought deeply about. Chen Heng had already gotten what he needed in the Sword Tomb. If he continued to stay in the Sword Tomb, he might not be able to obtain much improvement.
Moreover, judging from the intensity of this battle, the Sword Tomb would probably be sealed for a long period. Outsiders would not be able to enter so easily.
If Chen Heng did not choose to leave this time, it would not be so easy for him to leave the Sword Tomb in the future. Therefore, after hesitating, Chen Heng ultimately chose to leave the Sword Tomb and head to the outside world.
In front of him, the golden teleportation door slowly opened and appeared in this place.
Chen Heng watched everything and then watched Song Qingruo and Xiao Han slowly move forward and gradually leave this place. They slowly moved forward and left.
Behind them, the door of the Sword Tomb slowly closed and entered a closed state.
Bang!
A crisp sound was heard.
The aura of the world outside was transmitted. When he arrived at the world outside, Chen Heng observed for a moment.
In front of him was a flourishing bamboo forest, and the vital Qi in the surroundings was somewhat chaotic. It was as if there were cultivators in an intense battle, fighting each other.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Han and Song Qingruo looked at each other and then, without prior agreement, charged forward.
Soon after, a great battle was about to break out. Chen Heng watched for a while and then felt bored.
Compared to the previous great battle of Heavenly Weapons, the level of confrontation in this area was too weak. The battles of the surrounding cultivators seemed fierce, but in fact, the highest level was not at the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Even cultivators at the Shattering Core Stage were rarely seen, let alone higher levels.
From its looks, this so-called Qionghua Sword Sect was only at this level. Chen Heng felt bored. After thinking for a while, he slowly closed his eyes and sank into silence.
In the previous Sword Tomb, he had absorbed the origin of the eight constitutions. At this moment, the eight origins were still settling in his body and had not been completely absorbed and digested.
