Chapter 15: The biggest competitor is Ling Xue [asking for monthly votes]Cangyun Tianshan.
The peak of the Yuan Yang Continent!
This towering mountain pierces through the clouds, with one half beneath and the other half above them. It exudes an imposing and grand sense of awe!
At the top of the mountain is a giant crater, resembling a volcanic mouth, spanning over fifty li in diameter.
In ancient times, a small kingdom once existed inside this crater. However, it was destroyed long ago, and to this day, no one knows the reason for its demise. Now, only ruins remain.
As for the fact that an ancient tomb still exists within the territory of this small kingdom, very few are aware. The only person who knows the full details is Ling Xue alone.
The tomb’s owner was, in fact, the most ancient emperor of that small kingdom, its very founder!
This little land had long been desolate, but ever since the sudden news from the Demon Sect, it had become bustling with activity.
Forces and powerful individuals from across the continent gathered here to join the excitement. After all, the allure of the Qiankun Sword Art was immense.
It was the lifelong work of a true supreme expert who had reached the peak of the Ten Realms of Martial Mastery*
. If one were to obtain it, their path of cultivation would surely be smooth sailing in the future!
The Qiankun Sword Art may only exist in one copy, but everyone was willing to try their luck. What if they were the ones to find it?
Moreover, since the Qiankun Sword Art was hidden here, there must be other opportunities and treasures in this place. Even if one couldn’t obtain the Sword Art, surely they could gain some other benefits, right?
At this moment, the entire crater at the mountain’s peak was filled with scattered figures from different places. Although many had arrived, no one knew where the entrance to the so-called ancient tomb was.
Everyone was like headless flies, wandering around aimlessly.
This place had once been a capital city, but after countless years, only ruins remained. Finding treasure in these ruins was, of course, impossible!
Apart from the ancient tomb, there was likely nothing of value here.
So, all they could do was rely on luck and wait.
They waited for the person who could open the tomb to appear.
In other words, they were waiting for the Demon Sect to arrive.
Liu Wenwan and Yun Luoxi had just arrived at this moment.
The two master and disciple figures hovered in mid-air, gazing at the enormous crater filled with ruins below. Liu Wenwan frowned slightly, her delicate brows furrowing. “Quite a few people have come. It seems we have a lot of competition.”
Yun Luoxi remained silent, her face somber. Sёarch* The n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Yun Luoxi replied,”Of course, there was competition. Their biggest competitor was Ling Xue!”
She had only come to try her luck. After all, no one knew where the Qiankun Sword Art was.
Searching for the Qiankun Sword Art in a place like this depended partly on strength, but mostly on luck.
It was all about who could find the place where the Qiankun Sword Art was buried first.
“Have the people from the Demon Sect not arrived yet?” Liu Wenwan’s eyes swept over the scene, but she didn’t see any signs of the Demon Sect.
She thought,
Yun Luoxi had the same thought.
“Who are those people?” Liu Wenwan murmured.
Just then, as Yun Luoxi was deep in thought, she suddenly noticed a group of people standing under a dilapidated pavilion below.
Leading them were seven mysterious figures in black cloaks, their faces obscured. Behind them were over a hundred others, all dressed in black cloaks as well.
Yun Luoxi’s senses were sharp, and she could tell that this group of people emitted an unusual aura.
Liu Wenwan also looked down and narrowed her eyes slightly.
With her cultivation level, she could barely make out that the seven leading black-cloaked figures were all at the Divine Origin Realm, while the hundred or so people behind them were at the Heavenly Profound Realm!
“Who are these people? To muster such a massive force?” Liu Wenwan muttered under her breath.
Seven Divine Origin Realm experts. What kind of superpower were they from?
Such a powerful lineup was terrifying across the entire Yuan Yang Continent.
After all, even her Lingxu Sect only had three Divine Origin Realm experts!
The Taixuan Empire’s royal family seemed to only have ten Divine Origin Realm experts in total!
To deploy such a lineup for the Qiankun Sword Art?
This was rather unusual.
It seemed these people had other motives.
At that moment, the sound of something cutting through the air came from the distant sky.
Then, a gigantic creature soared over, blotting out the sky.
It was a massive six-winged purple-gold dragon turtle, over a hundred zhang in size. With the head and tail of a dragon and billowing demonic energy, it was an imposing sight!
Atop its broad and heavy shell stood a grand pavilion large enough to hold a thousand people.
As soon as the six-winged dragon turtle arrived, everyone knew.
The people from the Demon Sect… had arrived!
