634: Heavenly Sword

Ancestor Yue, Elder Ying.

Beneath the sea, outside Wind Sand Island, in the Chaotic Sea.

One by one, the Sword Hall Disciples, awakening from their daze, were shaken when they saw Zhou Liyue and Zhou Nanying. They quickly rose and saluted the two.

"Are there any injuries?"

Seeing that all the Sword Hall Disciples had awakened and the sword hum had ceased, Zhou Liyue didn't pay attention to anything else. She simply helped everyone up and asked softly.

"Reporting to Ancestor Yue, we are unharmed."

"It's just that our consciousness was... was... trapped by a group of beasts that could wield sword arts..."

The leading Disciple of the Yun generation showed a hint of shame on his face.

It was a disgrace that after decades of cultivation, with excellent resources and Legacy, they couldn't even defeat beasts, even if those were clearly not ordinary beasts.

After the Yun generation Disciple finished speaking, Zhou Nanying's mouth twitched. She thought of the group of white geese whose Sword Qi crisscrossed and could form sword formations, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"Just now, I saw the Hall Master's figure..."

Zhou Nanying recalled the white-haired figure that appeared when her consciousness was last blurry. She guessed that they were able to emerge from that world so quickly because the Hall Master had already broken through the assessment of that world.

"Xiao Yuan..."

Zhou Liyue nodded, then looked at the Sword Hall Disciples.

"You have been unconscious for a long time. Come back to the family with me to rest and recuperate, so as to avoid any lingering problems."

Zhou Liyue's Divine Sense swept over everyone, though she didn't find anything amiss.

However, being trapped in the sound of the sword for so long might have hidden dangers that she couldn't detect.

"We obey Ancestor Yue's command."

Everyone looked slightly excited and responded in unison.

"Let's go."

Zhou Liyue gently waved her hand. The surrounding Formation Flags rotated, taking everyone towards the surface of the sea.

Beside her, Zhou Nanying's mind kept replaying the scenes of her fighting with the monkeys, chickens, deer, horses, and other animals.

Thinking about it now, every sword art they used seemed extraordinary.

Zhou Nanying's heart stirred, replaying everything that had happened.

She tried to incorporate these several sword arts into her own use... On Qingyang Peak of Gui Zhou Island, in a secret chamber deep within the Sword Hall.

Zhou Xiuyuan stood up, gently holding the voidless divine sword, which alternated between solid and ethereal.

A glimmer of understanding and several perceptions emerged in his mind.

"Heavenly Sword Mountain... Tenth Sword..."

Zhou Xiuyuan's eyes flickered as he looked at the voidless divine sword in his hand.

He couldn't even perceive the grade of the voidless divine sword in his hand. He only got a name called Heavenly Sword Mountain from it, and there were also nine other vague, unknown, and unlocated sword-wielding figures.

"Are there still two swords...?"

Zhou Xiuyuan murmured softly, as if there were still two swords yet to appear.

When the other two swords emerge.

When the twelve swords appear, Heavenly Sword Mountain will manifest.

At that time, he could go to this place called Heavenly Sword Mountain.

"Heavenly Void Sword Scripture..."

Along with this understanding and perception, a profound scripture called the Heavenly Void Sword Scripture also appeared in his mind.

Its characters were like sword carvings, imbued with Intent.

If one's Realm was insufficient, observing it would cause one to fall into this Heavenly Void Sword Intent, making it difficult to escape for life, only to possess a treasure mountain yet return empty-handed.

Whoosh~

A moment later.

Zhou Xiuyuan woke up from those ancient characters.

He didn't continue to comprehend.

This sword Dao scripture was like a true explanation of the sword Dao, pointing directly to the Great Dao, containing endless profound mysteries, countless times more profound than the fundamental Legacy of the Great Snow Mountain Sword Sect.

It was not something that could be fully comprehended in a short time.

Zhou Xiuyuan's hand, holding the voidless divine sword, gently twisted.

An ethereal intent condensed around the voidless divine sword, forming a sword sheath.

Zhou Xiuyuan released his hand, and the long sword in his hand moved slightly, hanging at his waist.

Clang~

At this moment.

The one heart sword let out a soft hum, seemingly expressing dissatisfaction. A new sword had just arrived and was now sitting above it and Elder Xue, how could it tolerate this?

The one heart sword vibrated.

An invisible intent, following the hum of the sword, pressed towards the voidless divine sword.

However, this invisible intent was like a mud ox entering the sea, disappearing without a trace upon contact with the voidless divine sword.

The voidless divine sword remained motionless; the actions of the one heart sword did not cause any reaction from it.

The one heart sword paused, its vibrating blade slightly hesitant, as if it had already sensed that this new fellow was not easy to deal with, stronger than that Elder Xue.

After a moment of hesitation.

The one heart sword returned to calm.

Above the one heart sword, within the ancient great snow mountain sword.

In the Immortal Cave formed by ice mountains, a white-haired, ancient figure opened his sleepy eyes, glanced briefly, then rolled over and comfortably continued to sleep.

His old self had long passed the age of vying for supremacy.

Such matters were best left to the youngsters.

The great snow mountain sword spirit felt a little timid in its heart, but it didn't admit that it was afraid.

Looking at the actions of the one heart sword, Zhou Xiuyuan's mouth curved into a small arc.

He gently stroked the one heart sword, as if to appease it.

"Heavenly Sword Mountain... I haven't heard of this name before..."

"The Grand Elder isn't here..."

Thinking this, the door to the secret chamber opened wide, and the white-haired figure, with three long swords hanging at his waist, stepped out, merging into the Void Realm, heading towards the Inner Sea...

Deep within the Inner Sea.

Outside the lonely small island.

Zhou Xiuyuan's figure stepped out of the Void Realm.

He bowed respectfully towards the small island.

His expression was reverent.

"Come in."

At this moment, a calm, clear female voice came from within the island.

"Thank you, Senior."

Zhou Xiuyuan's thoughts stirred, and he rose, flying towards the island.

Inside South Sea Divine Island.

By the lake, filled with green lotuses, stood several bamboo buildings.

At this moment, in front of the bamboo building.

A beautiful and gentle figure stood gently by the lake.

Fish swam out from the lake beneath the green lotuses, and the beautiful figure scattered fish food onto the surface of the lake.

"Senior."

A moment later.

Zhou Xiuyuan's figure slowly came to the lake and bowed to the figure.

"No need for such courtesy."

The beautiful figure gently waved her hand, turned around, and looked at Zhou Xiuyuan.

"This Junior has presumptuously disturbed you, for there is indeed something I do not understand."

This place is the secluded dwelling of Senior Goddess of the South Sea. Although Zhou Family Disciples can come here to comprehend the Legacy, at other times, they would not easily come to disturb.

The Goddess of the South Sea's gaze fell on Zhou Xiuyuan's waist.

She lightly pointed.

A ray of light landed on the voidless divine sword.

Buzz~

The voidless divine sword trembled slightly, and the Heavenly Void Intent diffused out.

"One of the twelve swords of Heavenly Sword Mountain..."

The Goddess of the South Sea withdrew her hand, her expression shifting.

A hint of contemplation appeared on her face, as if she had thought of something.

"Senior..."

Zhou Xiuyuan's heart stirred. The Senior truly knew.

"It is indeed an extraordinary karmic connection."

A hint of surprise appeared on the beautiful face of the Goddess of the South Sea, then she waved her hand.

"This sword in your hand is one of the Heavenly Sword Mountain's Legacy keys, it is the key to opening Heavenly Sword Mountain."

"Heavenly Sword Mountain, it is rumored, was created by the Heavenly Sword Old Man from unknown eons ago."

"The Heavenly Sword Old Man was a peerless powerhouse closest to Immortal Ascension, but it seems he ultimately did not achieve Immortal Ascension."
