196: Sword Washing Pond

He had indeed gone down the mountain, but he had been killed by Tang Tian and Liu Ru Shi...

It seemed that unless Chi Daizi died, he would not be able to avoid him.

Tang Tian did not want to ask what Chi Daizi wanted with them, because Fourth Senior Sister definitely would not know.

Fourth Senior Sister said, "Junior Brother, do you want to play with Xi'er in our Fox Clan for a while, or go to the Sword Washing Pond now?"

Tang Tian asked, "Is there a difference?"

Fourth Senior Sister said, "No difference; it's just going to the Sword Washing Pond now or at night."

Tang Tian said, "Then let's go now."

Fourth Senior Sister summoned a paper doll and had it lead Tang Tian there.

This paper doll had the cultivation of the Qi Training Ninth Level, not much different from Fourth Senior Sister.

Tang Tian asked, "Fourth Senior Sister, why send a paper doll to take me?"

Fourth Senior Sister said, "We are Yao Beasts, and Yao Beasts are not allowed to enter the Sword Washing Pond, so let the paper doll take you in."

Tang Tian: "..."

Tang Tian really could not understand; the Qing Huai Fox Clan had no use for this Sword Washing Pond, so why did they even have it?

Fourth Senior Sister chuckled, "Go ahead, Junior Brother."

After saying this, Fourth Senior Sister left, and Big Yellow and Wuqi followed Tang Tian.

Tang Tian asked, "Can I choose two weapons for my pets?"

Fourth Senior Sister said, "Suit yourself, as long as you can take the weapons out. The weapons in this Sword Washing Pond carry Karma."

"They were seized by a Golden Core Cultivator of our clan from who knows where. You might run into the original owner of the Sword Washing Pond one day and get entangled in Karma."

Tang Tian paid no attention to these words at all. Like how he wielded the White Bone Greatsword and used the Ten Thousand Devouring Method, he was still living just fine.

Fourth Senior Sister did not say anything more and left.

Tang Tian muttered to himself, "One for Big Yellow, one for Wuqi, and also for Big Goose and those other animals, though some animals don't use swords as weapons."

"Forget it, they'll all use swords for me. Since Fourth Senior Sister took so much advantage of me, I must make the Qing Huai Fox Clan pay it back."

Tang Tian muttered as he followed Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll, which started running after a short while.

Tang Tian quickly mounted Wuqi to use as a steed and chased after it, with Big Yellow following behind. After two quarters of an hour, they arrived at the Sword Washing Pond.

This place was very far from the Qing Huai Fox Clan's location; it seemed the Qing Huai Fox Clan really did not care about this Sword Washing Pond.

When Tang Tian dismounted from Wuqi, Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll had already opened the Seal of the Sword Washing Pond. The weather, which had been clear and sunny, suddenly turned stormy with thunder and lightning, and wild winds swirled around, causing Tang Tian's hair to fly about in the air.

This Sword Washing Pond stretched for several thousand meters, and the surrounding pools contained lightning liquid, though fortunately, there was a path forward in the middle.

Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll said, "Alright, this is the place. Junior Brother, go on in."

Tang Tian nodded and quickly brought Big Yellow and Wuqi inside. Once inside, Tang Tian discovered that the situation outside was completely different from the inside.

Tang Tian looked back and could not see the situation of the Qing Huai Fox Clan at all; he could only barely see Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll.

A bit of lightning liquid touched the right arm of Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll, and the entire arm instantly exploded. Tang Tian saw the paper doll expressionlessly chop off its right paper arm.

Subsequently, thunder crashed down, and Tang Tian could no longer see Fourth Senior Sister's paper doll, nor could the paper doll see Tang Tian.

Big Yellow let out a "Woof," indicating that these swords were good treasures.

Tang Tian said, "Big Yellow, see which sword is the best."

Tang Tian trusted Big Yellow very much; after all, it had the "Lang Fa Dog" Bloodline.

Big Yellow barked at a sword in the very center of the lightning pool.

That was a Foundation Establishment Realm weapon, entirely silver-white, with lightning transforming into silver thunder surging upon it.

Tang Tian was stunned.

Tang Tian had used a Foundation Establishment Weapon before, so naturally, he understood that this was a Foundation Establishment Weapon.

Tang Tian said, "Goodness, this is actually a Foundation Establishment Weapon. Fourth Senior Sister truly didn't lie to me; the origin of this Sword Washing Pond is extraordinary."

"As expected of something seized by a Golden Core Cultivator; it really carries great Karma."

There were tens of thousands of swords in the Sword Washing Pond before him, ranging in quality from Qi Refinement stage eight to Foundation Establishment.

The weapons of the Qi Refinement stage eight were the most numerous, while the Foundation Establishment Weapons were the fewest, with only seven.

The one Big Yellow pointed at was indeed the best in quality, because only that sword had silver snakes surging on it, while the other Foundation Establishment Weapons were quite ordinary.

However, even if they were quite ordinary, their quality was still better than the White Bone Greatsword in Tang Tian's hand.

This was because the swords in the Sword Washing Pond were lightning-attributed, possessing a natural suppressive effect against Yao demons, whereas the White Bone Greatsword did not.

Tang Tian said, "Alright, you're the one."

Tang Tian used the "Cold Ice Technique" to solidify a suit of armor for himself, and then solidified a large number of shields outside it using Spiritual Qi.

Tang Tian also continuously refined Spirit Stones to create Spirit Stone shields, totaling a full ten thousand.

Now, Tang Tian's defense could withstand even a strike from a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Tang Tian said, "Big Yellow, you all go ahead and take the weapons you like. Watch me go get the Foundation Establishment Weapon."

Tang Tian looked at the waist-high lightning pool at his feet; the lightning within the pool was extremely violent, and Tang Tian stood there for a long time without daring to go down.

Tang Tian said, "Forget it, let me test the intensity of the thunder."

Tang Tian used his Spiritual Qi to fish up a lightning snake that had split off from the lightning pool. As soon as it was fished up, the lightning attacked Tang Tian along with the lightning snake.

This happened in an instant. Before Tang Tian could cut off his Spiritual Qi, he was electrocuted.

The massive lightning directly shattered Tang Tian's shields, and even half of his cold ice armor was shattered.

Fortunately, Tang Tian had prepared sufficient defenses; otherwise, he would at least be seriously injured now.

And this was still just the smallest lightning snake in the lightning pool.

Tang Tian said with trepidation, "As expected of a lightning pool; this is too terrifying."

Tang Tian took a step, and the Spiritual Qi shields and cold ice armor on his body instantly shattered.

Tang Tian: "..."

Tang Tian swallowed his saliva. The lightning snake he had fished up earlier rolled on the ground and then disappeared.

Tang Tian said, "Tsk, if one were to be touched by this, they would definitely be seriously injured."

Tang Tian felt he should ask the Soul-Devouring Sword, because Tang Tian had no one else to ask now.

Tang Tian said to the Medicine Venerable Space, "Soul-Devouring Sword, I have arrived at a lightning Secret Realm. There is a Foundation Establishment Realm weapon inside that I want. Do you think there is a chance to get it?"

The Soul-Devouring Sword wrote, "I have already told you, I am a wandering soul from hundreds of millions of years ago. I really don't look upon you trash items that are only a few tens of thousands of years old."

Tang Tian previously thought that the Soul-Devouring Sword was bragging about being a wandering soul from hundreds of millions of years ago, but ever since he learned about the Lady Qingmu, he felt that what the Soul-Devouring Sword said might actually be possible.

Tang Tian: "..."

He felt that the Soul-Devouring Sword wasn't exactly a good thing either, mainly because the Soul-Devouring Sword upgraded way too fast.

Whenever Tang Tian reached a certain Realm, the Soul-Devouring Sword would quickly reach the same Realm as Tang Tian, or even become stronger than Tang Tian...

Tang Tian said, "Great Soul-Devouring Sword, could you please just take a look for me..."
