Chapter 600 Chapter 600 – Falling and Silence
In the Sword Tomb, everyone was looking at the ancient sword in the air. Their hearts were filled with desire, and they had the urge to obtain the sword regardless of everything.
Under their gazes, the ancient sword in the air recovered for a short while before quickly returning to peace.
On it, the resplendent light gradually dimmed, and the specks of golden light faded. They scattered in all directions, gradually returning to their ordinary state. The glazed sword was once again covered in rust. It was covered in rust and looked like an ordinary ordinary ordinary weapon. There was no trace of the magic that a divine weapon should have. It looked extremely ordinary.
“A Heavenly Weapon concealing itself?”
Looking at the scene in front of them, this thought flashed through many people’s minds. They had an inexplicable realization.
Before this, they were still wondering where this peerless Heavenly Weapon came from. But from the current situation, it seemed that this Heavenly Weapon had always been in the corner of the sword tomb. It was just that it hid.
After the brilliance faded away, the ancient sword was like an ordinary weapon. There was no abnormality at all. If it were any other time, they would not have taken the ancient sword even if placed in front of them.
After all, many of the cultivators present were elites since they could enter the Sword Tomb. How could they take a fancy to such an ordinary weapon?
It was probably because of this mentality that many people in the past missed this Heavenly Weapon, causing it to be covered in dust. It was only until today that it showed its brilliance.
After the brilliance faded away in the air, the ancient sword seemed to have lost all its power. It completely returned to its original form and directly fell to the ground.
This scene caused everyone’s emotions to surge.
“It’s in that direction!”
In a certain corner, someone shouted. Then, many cultivators began to rush forward, wanting to search that area.
If they could find this Heavenly Weapon, they wouldn’t have to worry about it in the future. With the power of the Heavenly Weapon, it would be easy for them to breakthrough in the future.
Not far away, the old man looked at Song Qingruo and the Heavenly Weapon in her hand. Then, he hesitated and left the place, heading toward the area where the ancient sword fell.
According to his original plan, he planned to wait for Song Qingruo to draw out the Armed Catastrophe, and after she died from it, he would collect the sealed Heavenly Weapon.
But now that such an unforeseen event had happened, he couldn’t continue like this. The ancient sword appeared and shattered the Armed Catastrophe. Because of this, Song Qingruo survived and didn’t die from the Armed Catastrophe.
With Song Qingruo’s innate sword body and the divine weapon in her hand, the old man didn’t have the confidence to take her down.
Instead of fighting with Song Qingruo here, it was better to head to that area and search for the ancient sword. If he could find the ancient Heavenly Weapon, the Heavenly Weapon in song Qingruo’s hand wouldn’t be a problem.
All sorts of thoughts flashed through the old man’s mind in an instant. In the end, he hesitated for a moment before deciding to leave and search the area ahead.
From its looks, he should be searching for the ancient sword.
“My Heavenly Weapon…”
Xiao Han watched the old man’s actions from the side, his heart bleeding. He knew very well that after this incident, the ancient sword that originally belonged to him would no longer belong to him.
He had seen the transformation of the ancient sword just now. Just like when he had first discovered the ancient sword, the ancient sword at this moment had probably once again turned into an ordinary mortal weapon, hiding in every corner.
With his strength, even if the ancient sword once again appeared in front of him, he might not be able to find it, much less fight with those people from the Netherworld Sect.
After all, there were all kinds of weapons in this Sword Tomb. There was a huge pile of them wherever he went. Finding the ancient sword in such a pile of ordinary weapons was not easy.
Thinking of this, Xiao Han felt a little depressed, but he could only comfort himself. No matter what, he survived.
At this moment, the disciples of the Netherworld Sect were all attracted by the ancient sword, and no one paid attention to him and Song Qingruo anymore.
Under Song Qingruo’s protection, they should be able to return to the Qionghua Sword Sect alive. This could be considered to be a close call. Moreover, this trip wasn’t without benefits.
While obtaining the Heavenly Weapon, he used the Heavenly Weapon to plunder his Qi Blood. Not only did he increase his cultivation and reach the ninth level of the Qi Refinement Stage, but he also raised his apt.i.tude.
At this moment, although Xiao Han’s apt.i.tude was still far inferior to a prodigy like Song Qingruo, he was no longer inferior to an ordinary genius.
When he left this place, with his current cultivation level of the ninth level of the Qi Refinement Stage, he had enough confidence to build his foundation and become the elite of the Qionghua Sword Sect.
Moreover, using this opportunity, he successfully contacted Song Qingruo, the number one disciple of the Qiong Hua Sword sect. These were all good gains.
If Xiao Han had known that his gains this time would be so shocking before he obtained the ancient sword, he would have laughed until he woke up from his dream.
But now, for some reason, he couldn’t laugh at all. He even had the urge to cry.
“Junior… junior Xiao…”
A cold voice sounded from the side.
Song Qingruo, dressed in a green robe, had unknowingly arrived beside Xiao Han. At this moment, she looked at Xiao Han and didn’t know what to say.
She knew Xiao Han’s current mood and wanted to comfort him. However, with her character, she didn’t know how to comfort others with her character. She couldn’t help but stop for a moment.
“Senior Song…”
Hearing the voice from Song Qingruo, Xiao Han forced a smile and said, “Don’t worry, I’m fine…”
“When I leave this time, I’ll make the decision and let you enter the inner sect directly.”
Looking at Xiao Han, Song Qingruo nodded. After thinking for a moment, she continued, “I’ll decide to let you enter the inner sect to cultivate the Qionghua Sword Technique…”
The Qionghua Sword Technique was the highest secret manual of the Qionghua Sword sect. It was also known as the number one sword manual in South Mountain. It was exquisite and profound.
Even in the Qionghua Sword sect, only a few personal disciples were able to cultivate it. As for ordinary disciples, they didn’t even have the right to look at it from afar.
Song Qingruo’s promise was undoubtedly compensation to Xiao Han. After all, if she hadn’t insisted on coming here to subdue the Heavenly Weapon, they wouldn’t have fallen to such a state, and Xiao Han didn’t have to lose the Heavenly Weapon in his hands.
Hearing Song Qingruo’s words, Xiao Han finally felt some comfort in his heart, and the smile on his face became more sincere. “Then thank you, senior Song…”
If he could learn the Qionghua Sword Technique, then Xiao Han would undoubtedly be included in the list of core disciples of the Qionghua Sword Sect. He might even become a personal disciple one day.
This was a good gain. Standing where he was, Xiao Han consoled himself.
On the other side. After falling from midair and falling to the ground again, Chen Heng returned to his previous appearance.
However, at this moment, his appearance was already different from before.
During the silent process, Xiao Han used him to kill many people. As a result, he had absorbed the life essence of many people and was able to transform.
At this moment, there were many unique patterns branded on the body of his sword. It looked much more mysterious and complicated, extremely vivid.
Some of these runes were the laws and profound meanings he had obtained from the Armed Catastrophe, while some were automatically transformed after absorbing the blood essence.
However, in general, these runes symbolized the Power of Laws and were the embodiment of the Power of Laws in this world. Moreover, Chen Heng could sense that his transformation was not over yet.
The many origins he had absorbed before had yet to be completely digested, so there was still room for him to grow and improve.
After he had completely digested the bloodline origin he had absorbed before, he would be able to break through and reach a new level. And at that time, the new Armed Catastrophe would arrive.
This was Chen Heng’s instinctive premonition. During this period, Chen Heng also obtained much information through his metamorphosis.
For example, the Armed Catastrophe. The Armed Catastrophe of the Weapon Spirit was not just once but existed in every metamorphosis.
According to the information obtained from the Heavenly Weapon fragment, the Armed Catastrophe of the Weapon Spirit should have nine times.
Chen Heng had only pa.s.sed it once. The Armed Catastrophe that the Heavenly Weapon in Song Qingruo’s hands encountered should be its second one.
‘Speaking of which, if the second Armed Catastrophe is only at that level, it shouldn’t be too many problems even if it’s me now.’
Chen Heng recalled the power from the previous Armed Catastrophe, and this thought flashed through his mind.
The previous Armed Catastrophe of the divine weapon might seem terrifying to others, but to Chen Heng, it was just ordinary. Even if he didn’t have the true spirit and divine power from his main body, he would be able to overcome it with his current strength alone. It was just that it wouldn’t be as easy as before.
However, Chen Heng had a premonition in his heart. The level of Catastrophe depends on its target. His second Armed Catastrophe might be far more terrifying than the Armed Catastrophe of Heavenly Weapon from before.
Therefore, he needed to prepare more. In an instant, all sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he looked outside. Many different auras appeared in the outside world through his true spirit sensing.
They were the Netherworld Sect disciples who had come here. At this moment, they had all come here to search for traces of Chen Heng. From the looks of it, quite many people had come.
Chen Heng only glanced at these people and directly ignored them. Their cultivation level was too low.
Compared to Xiao Han and Song Qingruo from before, the auras of these people in front of him were mixed. At a glance, one could tell that they were people with unstable foundations. Moreover, they did not have a strong Destiny or unique talent, so they were not worth paying too much attention to.
Even if Chen Heng wanted to find a tool man, it was unlikely that he would find these people.
Of course, the more important reason was that he did not want to leave the Sword Tomb for the time being
