Chapter 2339: Sword Crystal
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
A stone room appeared in the sight of the group after they had walked through the cave for fifteen minutes.
This room was large, standing at ten thousand feet wide. Many dark cave holes lined the walls of the cave, leading to unknown places.
In the middle of the stone room was a transparent sword that floated in mid-air.
The sword pointed downwards with an incredible length, and it was five hundred feet long.
Even if one didn’t walk into the stone room, the radiance of the sword could be felt. It was sharp, majestic and pure.
Many people knew about the Great Sword Sepulcher. They were prepared for what would happen and they entered the room like fish entering a net.
The bright and transparent sword shone with such dazzling Sword Radiance that the average person had to squint to look at it.
All of a sudden, these bright lights shot at the crowd like a few thousand sharp swords.
Each of these invisible Sword Radiance shot at specific targets.
“Another type of attack?” Su Mo’s eyes narrowed. Every sharp sword that he came across would attack him.
This sword seemed to lock down on his aura as it attacked him as others did not seem to affect its motion.
Granted, other people also had swords directed at them.
In an instant, bright light flashed through the room as everyone took their counter actions. Su Mo did not hesitate to defend himself as well as he shot out a Sword Qi.
Bam bam bam!
Explosions sounded continuously as a large number of swords were destroyed into air streaks that diffused through the sky.
Su Mo was very relax and he instantly countered the sword attack directed at him.
Ah ah ah!!
Yet, there were a few high pitch screams that filled the room. A few dozen people were unable to defend themselves against the attack and were injured.
The transparent sword shot out a continuous stream of Sword Radiance that turned into sharp swords as they attacked their targets.
Those who were injured tried valiantly to defend themselves and could only retreat out of the stone room in the end.
However, there were also others who, despite their full efforts, were unable to block the sword attacks and they retreated out of the stone room too.
Su Mo stood in the stone room staring intently at the transparent sword in the middle. From his encounter with the sword attack, he felt a strong sense from the sword .
He was not the only who felt this as they were some others who were like him.
This sense was not elementally based, it was a pure natural radiance that was sharp and dark.
A few men walked towards the large sword and sat down cross-legged as they tried to comprehend the sense.
“Let’s go!”
Right at that point, Han Sheng from Ultimate Supreme Being Palace called everyone forward and brought a few dozen people with him towards another cave.
Murong Leili, as a man from ultimate Supreme Being Palace, followed Han Sheng.
Shoosh shoosh shoos.h.!.+
Tuoba Liuming, Qianhuan Demon Lord, Yun Mu, Gongsun Jia and Gu Jianshan did not hesitate before they found other caves and flew into them.
They were all Favored Ones and they did not stop at the entrance.
A minority of people stayed where they were, most of them had a low cultivation rank and they did not dare to venture too deep.
However, a large number dispersed into various cave holes.
Su Mo stared at his surroudnings. There were a few hundred holes in the stone room that he could choose.
Ling Chang had told him about the Great Sword Sepulcher back then. Each of the cave holes were different.
As such, he was not too sure about the actual scenario.
Every level was a test and every time he pa.s.sed a test, he would be able to get an Opportunity.
If he failed the test, he would be thrown outward immediately.
Granted, the Opportunities that one would get there would be related to the way of the Sword and there wasn’t any secret treasure.
In a breath, the few thousand geniuses rushed into the hundreds of cave holes, leaving a few dozen men behind.
Shoos.h.!.+
Su Mo chose a hole and flew into it without hesitation.
“That man is only a Rank 2 True G.o.d, how does he dare to go in?”
“He’s seeking death!”
“It is unbelievable that he managed to avoid the Illusionary Swords!”
“He headed into the hole that Qianhuan Demon Lord went in!”
Outside the stone room, those who didn’t manage to defend themselves against the sword attack gossiped about Su Mo and shook their heads.
Many of those below the Rank 3 Realm did not dare to head in deeper and were shocked to find out that Su Mo had headed in.
However, they were not too bothered by it as they sat down to heal themselves again before attempting the stone room.
Only if they managed to defend against the Illusionary Swords would they be able to remain in the stone room to comprehend the sense of the swrod.
This transparent, large sword was rumored to be contrasted out of the Sword Will of Ultimate Sword Honorable. If they managed to comprehend the sense, it would be hugely beneficial for them.
…
Once Su Mo had entered the cave hole, he proceeded forward slowly. Everything in front of him was pitch-black and, despite using Chaotic Energy with his eyes, his vision was limited to only a thousand feet.
The reason why Su Mo chose the cave hole was because here were few who entered it. Aside from Qianhuan Demon Lord, only another eight or nine people had entered it.
The other cave holes had at least twenty men who entered them.
Su Mo originally wanted to go into the hole that Murong Leili had gone into and then take the chance to kill him. However, around twenty disciples from Ultimate Supreme Being Palace went with him. There was also the Rank 4 True G.o.d Han Sheng, so Su Mo had to give up on the thought for now.
The Stone Cave was deep and Su Mo did not see the people who went in before him. Su Mo took careful steps forward.
About fifteen minutes later, Su Mo could see light peeking in from in front of him and he arrived in a wide s.p.a.ce.
This wide s.p.a.ce was like a Stone Room.
The Stone Room was about ten thousand feet wide and an altar was situated in the middle of the room.
In the middle of the altar was a large sword that was as clear as crystal. The pure light that shone off it sent shudders down one’s spine.
Most importantly, the aura from the sword caused the Great Rotating Sword Primordial Spirit in Su Mo’s body to s.h.i.+ver slightly.
This feeling was the same as the desire a cat had when it had its eyes on a mouse for food.
“What sword is that?” Su Mo wondered in amazement as he walked towards the altar.
At that point, Qianhuan Demon Lord and the other eight talents were slowly walking on an elevated platform.
Their actions were slow and it seemed that they took half a day to take a step.
Qianhuan Demon Lord was on the third platform while the others were on the first and second platforms.
Everyone stared at the crystal sword on the altar with eyes of desire.
“Must I go up the altar through the platforms?”
Su Mo wondered and he strode towards the platform and stared at the sword on top of it.
With a deep breath in, Su Mo raised his hand and tried to grab the sword on the altar.
In an instant, a burning furnace shot up from the altar.
Although Su Mo knew that he would not be able to grab the sword, he wanted to try.
“He actually wants to take the Sword Crystal!”
“Seeking his own death!”
“Hehe, ignorant!”
As the group saw Su Mo’s actions, they mocked him. Su Mo was too ignorant to try and grab the Sword Crystal directly.
Before Su Mo could touch the altar and take hold of the mysterious force, it instantly vanished.
At the same time, a powerful force rushed up from the bottom of the altar and knocked Su Mo backward.
Bam!
Su Mo was forced backward by a few steps and his Blood Force in his body raced uncontrollably. Thankfully, he had been prepared or he would have been heavily inured.
“It seems that I can only take slow steps forward!” Su Mo sighed and walked towards the platform.
“Hm?”
“Strong!”
Many people who saw that Su Mo was unharmed were surprised. That was because Su Mo was only at Rank 2 Realm.
It was already surprising for a Rank 2 True G.o.d to be able to arrive there. Hence, everyone was stunned that Su Mo was unharmed.
He was strong and the group surveyed Su Mo to see if they could see anything different about him.
Qianhuan Demon Lord glanced at Su Mo for a second. In his opinion, no one could threaten him.
Mere ants might have good talents but they were not qualified to take the Sword Crystal from him.
With that, he raised his leg slowly and moved on to the fourth platform.
