477: Chapter 478 The Tomb of the Tai'a Sword! The First Test!

The pitch-black, deep Void Realm passage was filled with bone-chilling storms as sharp as flying knives.

Su Yang stepped on the black platinum floor, his hands tucked into the pockets of his casual trousers, walking forward with a leisurely expression.

Chu Ling's ice-blue dress clung tightly to her body in the storm, accentuating her statuesque figure and long, straight legs beautifully. She pressed one hand against the hilt of her dark gold divine sword, her long hair dancing in the wind, and her icy, pure, and beautiful face was filled with solemnity.

Luo Qingyao, however, clung to Su Yang with some trepidation.

She was wearing one of Su Yang's oversized white shirts, and her long, fair legs trembled slightly in the cold wind. To absorb the warmth from Su Yang's body, she wrapped her arms tightly around his arm, pressing her soft, curvaceous body against him without reservation, rubbing gently against his arm as they walked.

Qin Xueji, having just achieved her Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, also leaned against his other side with some nervousness, clutching the hem of Su Yang's shirt with two fingers.

Bai Li walked at the very back, waving a white jade fan. Her purple skirt swayed slightly as her beautiful eyes examined the ancient carvings on the walls of the passage.

After passing through the kilometer-long, deep passage.

The view ahead suddenly opened up.

Before them lay a vast, boundless underground basin that seemed to form a world of its own.

In this basin, the ground was composed entirely of dry, black-red earth. The ground was densely packed with countless broken swords. Some of the broken swords were covered in thick green rust, while others still had uncoagulated black bloodstains on their blades.

Thousands upon thousands of broken swords exuded an aura of desolation and deathly silence, arranged on the ground in an eerie sword formation that stretched as far as the eye could see.

This was the periphery of the Tai'e Sword Tomb, the Ten Thousand Sword Wasteland.

"Master, the air here is filled with materialized Evil Qi of the sword. If a Golden Core Stage Cultivator were to enter, I fear they would be ground into meat paste by this Evil Qi in an instant." Luo Qingyao shrank her neck, her voice trembling slightly.

Just as they had stepped into the wasteland.

Hum!

The entire black-red earth suddenly shook violently.

On the ground, countless broken swords buried in the soil began to vibrate crazily, emitting a dense, ear-piercing sound of metal clashing.

Whoosh!

Tens of thousands of broken swords rose from the ground simultaneously. They rapidly converged and interlocked in mid-air.

In just a dozen breaths, these broken swords had actually assembled in mid-air into a ten-thousand-foot-tall steel Sword Demon!

The giant demon was composed entirely of densely packed, broken swords, and its body was wrapped in scorching black Evil Qi of the sword. Its pair of scarlet eyes were formed from two ancient swords emitting a blood-colored light.

As soon as this steel Sword Demon condensed, the terrifying pressure of the Half-step Dao Integration Realm turned into a storm, pressing down overwhelmingly.

"Those who trespass into the Sword Tomb shall have their hearts pierced by ten thousand swords!"

The Sword Demon let out a mechanical roar like thunder. It raised its hundred-meter-wide steel hand, carrying the bone-chilling Evil Qi of the sword that tore through the Void Realm, and slammed it down fiercely towards Su Yang and the others below.

Space distorted violently under the heavy pressure, and the temperature in the air instantly dropped to freezing point.

"Boss, let me try."

Chu Ling stepped forward, her eyes burning with high Battle Intent. The dark gold divine sword in her hand erupted with a blinding dark golden light.

Su Yang reached out to stop her, his palm inadvertently brushing against her supple waist.

"You just refined your Life-bound Flying Sword; watch from behind for now. It's just a pile of scrap metal; there's no need to go to such trouble."

Su Yang pulled his hands out of his trouser pockets.

His right hand, wearing the black and silver star river mother gold gauntlet, clenched slightly in the Void Realm.

The Pure Yang Qi within his body exploded. The extremely rigid and Yang-aligned Pure Yang True Fire gushed out from his pores, and under the tenfold amplification of the star river mother gold gauntlet, it instantly transformed into a giant dark golden fist radiance with a diameter of one thousand meters.

Facing the heaven-covering sword hand slamming down, Su Yang threw a punch.

Rumble!

A heaven-shattering, earth-cracking roar erupted across the wasteland.

The dark golden fist radiance, like a roaring Dragon, soared into the sky and slammed directly into the Sword Demon's steel arm.

It met no resistance.

Bang!

The ten-thousand-foot-tall steel Sword Demon's arm collapsed and exploded right from the middle the instant it made contact with the fist radiance.

The violent True Fire was extremely hot, instantly melting the thousands of broken swords that made up the arm into crimson molten metal. The red molten metal rained down, burning dense pits into the black-red earth below.

The remaining force of the punch did not diminish, slamming fiercely into the Sword Demon's chest.

Boom!

The behemoth, ten thousand feet tall, could not even withstand a single second before Su Yang's unreasonable punch; it instantly shattered in the golden fire, turning into crimson metal fragments flying across the sky.

One punch to kill the Half-step Dao Integration Realm Sword Demon instantly.

Amidst the rain of fire falling from the sky, a fist-sized Sword Intent crystal, shimmering with dark golden light, spun in mid-air.

Su Yang grabbed with his large hand, sucking the crystal into his palm.

Turning around, Su Yang handed the crystal to Chu Ling beside him.

"Refine this; it will be of great benefit to your Sword Control Technique."

Chu Ling looked at the dark gold crystal in Su Yang's palm, her icy blue eyes filled with joy. She stepped forward and took the crystal with her fair, delicate hands.

Because she was too excited, she gathered her courage, stood on her tiptoes, and planted a firm kiss on Su Yang's cheek.

"Thank you, Boss!"

Chu Ling's voice was crisp, and two blushes flew across her beautiful, cold, and pretty face as her slender legs went a bit weak and pressed together.

Luo Qingyao, watching from the side, felt a bit envious. She twisted her curvaceous figure and pressed her warm, soft, and delicate body tightly against Su Yang's arm.

"Master, you are so biased. There seems to be a white jade bridge ahead; let Qingyao help you scout the path."

Luo Qingyao blushed, pressing the two firm mounds on her chest hard against Su Yang's arm.

Su Yang casually slapped her firm buttocks.

"Let's go, let's go take a look."

Crossing the wasteland, a hundred-meter-long white jade stone bridge appeared ahead.

Below the stone bridge, it was not river water, but a bottomless abyss churning with milky white spiritual mist.

At the other end of the white jade stone bridge.

Stood a tall cyan stone tablet. The surface of the tablet was smooth, with no inscriptions carved on it.

And in the Void Realm in front of the cyan stone tablet.

Sat a translucent spirit body dressed in white feathered robes, sitting quietly. This spirit body had a slender figure and held a slender Flying Sword with an ancient style in its arms. Although its eyes were closed, the Sword Intent permeating from its body was a thousand times stronger than that of the previous Sword Demon.

A Sword Soul guarding the pass at the Early Stage of the Dao Integration Realm!

Seeming to sense the aura of Su Yang and the others, the seated translucent spirit body slowly opened its eyes.

Two substantial silver sword beams instantly shot out from its eyes, leaving two pitch-black spatial scratches directly in the Void Realm.
