Sword Tomb Asks the Sky

"Is something the matter?"

A clear, cold voice, revealing a detachment that kept people at a thousand miles' distance.

Zhong Qing smiled.

"I came specifically for you!"

As soon as he said this, Gu Chenxian's eyes narrowed slightly.

A dangerous cold glint emanated from them.

"It seems there's no connection between us!"

Zhong Qing ignored the other's unfriendly gaze.

Sometimes, when taking on a Disciple, one had to be more proactive.

If I am aloof and you are unyielding, how can a story unfold without someone taking the initiative?

He slowly took a sip of wine, then said, "Have you ever considered finding yourself a Master?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Gu Chenxian was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had misheard.

If he hadn't misunderstood, this person wanted to be his Master?!

This brought forth an extreme sense of absurdity in his heart.

Who was he?

A person from the Upper Realm, whose identity was so high and status so revered, an existence that beings of the Lower Domain could only look up to.

Yet today, someone who appeared out of nowhere wanted to be his Master. How could it not be absurd?

He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on Zhong Qing, carrying a compelling sense of oppression.

"Given that you bear no ill will, withdraw quickly, and I will not hold it against you!"

Zhong Qing took another sip of wine, indifferently saying, "You haven't even seen my methods. Give yourself a chance; perhaps there will be an unexpected surprise?"

Gu Chenxian looked at Zhong Qing expressionlessly.

He saw an extremely strong confidence in Zhong Qing, but some things were not enough with just confidence.

He was about to speak, to explain the gap between them and make him abandon this thought.

But at this moment!

From the distant heavens and earth, an astonishing sword cry resounded.

"Clang..."

The sword cry was like a True Dragon's roar, filling the heavens and earth, shaking all directions.

A powerful Sword Intent seemed to part the clouds and cleave the sky.

Hearing this sword cry, Gu Chenxian's eyes flickered slightly.

He turned his head to look at Zhong Qing, saying faintly, "I have no interest in wasting time with you. Do as you please."

After speaking, he no longer looked at Zhong Qing, directly tore through space, and disappeared before Zhong Qing.

"Such powerful Sword Intent!"

Zhong Qing also looked in the direction of the sword cry, slightly startled.

"And judging by the emotional fluctuation my precious Disciple just showed, that place seems very important to him!"

He slowly took a sip of wine, rubbed his brow with one hand, and showed a thoughtful expression.

"Alright, I'll go see what's happening first."

While contemplating, Zhong Qing stepped forward and followed directly.

After all, he also realized that his precious Disciple was not like his other Disciples; trying to take him as a Disciple with just a few words would probably not be so easy.

He still needed to proceed slowly...

...

A single sword cry shook the world, startling all directions, and startled the entire True Domain!

At this time, in the center of the True Domain, stood massive mountain ranges!

The mountains stretched and undulated, like a Sleeping Dragon spanning across.

They soared into the clouds!

On top of the mountains, long swords were stuck everywhere.

Some swords were massive, six feet wide, like a curved silver moon.

Some were like a golden snake's breath, uniquely shaped, filled with the aura of time.

Some long swords were blunt, heavy as mountains, like pillars reaching the sky.

...

This was the Divine Weapon Mountain Range!

It was also the Holy Land in the hearts of billions of beings in the True Domain.

In the True Domain, the sword was revered, and life revolved around the sword.

This was a realm where everyone cultivated the sword.

The Divine Weapon Mountain Range gathered the famous swords of ancient and modern True Domain.

People were proud to be able to leave their swords and carve their names in the mountains.

Some powerful individuals, before their demise, would request to be buried with their swords in the Divine Weapon Mountain Range.

Of course, those who wished to be buried there must have achieved extremely high accomplishments in the Dao of the Sword Domain.

Therefore, the entire Divine Weapon Mountain Range was also known as the Sword Tomb of the True Domain!

The burial place of swords, the place of sword Legacy, the place of sword Opportunity.

It was a place of annihilation and rebirth, of Reincarnation and Legacy.

Now, in the very center of the Sword Tomb, a three-foot long sword, appearing as dark as ink and unadorned, hummed, causing thousands of Divine Weapons in the Sword Tomb to tremble in unison.

Within the Sword Tomb, sword Qi scattered, and Sword Intent soared into the sky!

Countless terrifying Sword Intent were awakening, cheering, and vibrating.

"It's... Tianwen has appeared!"

Outside the Divine Weapon Mountain Range, Lord Yu Wanfeng, the Sect Master of the Saint Sword Sect, who was in charge of the Sword Tomb, was greatly moved, his face filled with shock.

"Tianwen?!"

Although the surrounding people had already anticipated it, the mention of the name Tianwen still made them tremble involuntarily.

Countless waves surged within their hearts.

Their expressions were full of reverence and longing.

This name seemed to possess a special magic.

Hearing it, one couldn't help but feel respect.

The Third Elder of the Saint Sword Sect looked at the restless Divine Swords throughout the mountain and at the Tianwen Sword's radiance that filled the sky, his mind fluctuating, his eyes greatly moved.

In a trance!

He seemed to return to tens of thousands of years ago.

The splendor of Tianwen once again appeared in his mind.

That year!

Demons tore through space and invaded the True Domain in large numbers.

On the land, in the sky, within the four seas, everywhere was filled with burning smoke.

The demons were powerful; even if the True Domain's experts came out in full force, it was ultimately like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

The entire True Domain was on the verge of collapse, at risk of being occupied by demons at any moment.

Once the True Domain was occupied by demons, billions of the Human Race in the True Domain would likely face a bloody cleansing and reckoning.

That was the most tragic crisis that had erupted in the entire True Domain since its birth.

None other!

Historically known as — The Sorrow of the True Domain!

Just when everyone had fallen into despair.

That day!

That person, holding Tianwen, appeared!

The Third Elder could never forget the splendor of that sword strike.

One sword's cold gleam illuminated the Nine Heavens!

He slew from south to north, from west to east, from the heavens, down into the earth.

He slew billions of demons to extinction, until mountains of corpses and seas of blood piled up everywhere.

He slew until the land was stained with blood and the sky changed color.

For billions of the Human Race, he carved out a path of survival from despair.

He tore through the darkness, re-established order, and reshaped the universe!

This was a world-saving sword.

It saved the entire True Domain, saving billions of the True Domain's Human Race.

That sword was the undisputed number one in the hearts of billions of beings in the entire True Domain.

Among the thousands of Divine Swords in the Sword Tomb, only Tianwen reigned supreme!

This showed Tianwen's extraordinary nature.

At this moment!

Tianwen appeared.

This was a great day worth celebrating throughout the entire Void Domain.

Because it meant that the Legacy left by that great individual was about to appear.

Lord Yu Wanfeng, the Sect Master of the Saint Sword Sect, waved his hand.

He laughed uproariously towards the sky!

"Tianwen's appearance is a great joy for the True Domain."

"Order the Disciples of the Saint Sword Sect to announce to the world and invite all heroes to celebrate Tianwen's appearance."

"Whoever can obtain the Tianwen Legacy, our Saint Sword Sect shall honor him as supreme!"

The Saint Sword Sect was, without a doubt, the strongest Sect in the entire True Domain.

Tianwen's appearance was already a sensational event.

As the will of the Saint Sword Sect spread, it added more fuel to the already high enthusiasm of the crowd.

The entire True Domain completely boiled over.

Every day, countless cultivators rushed from all directions, gathering at the Divine Weapon Mountain Range.

For a time!

The entire Divine Weapon Mountain Range became a place of surging winds and clouds.
