#247 - Obtain inheritance
Under the watchful eyes of Su Chen, Nan Yin, Qing Ling, and Qiao Yun, the boundless black mist grew increasingly violent, continuously colliding with the sword energy that filled the sky. The two forces continued their confrontation, locked in a fierce battle.
This was the power of an Emperor Realm expert!
Even though both sides had fallen thousands of years ago, such terrifying power still remained today!
"Little friend, lend me your treasure for a moment."
Just then, a gentle voice echoed in Su Chen's mind.
In the next moment, Su Chen's Primordial Chaos Tower soared into the sky uncontrollably. A mysterious and vast power poured into it, causing the tower to erupt with light and unleash the true power of an Emperor-level artifact!
As the Primordial Chaos Tower's radiance swirled, a golden-haired man emerged, his entire being enveloped in dazzling divine light, as astonishing as a war god.
He was none other than the Emperor Realm expert who had fallen beneath the Primordial Chaos Tower!
At this moment, driven by that mysterious power, the Primordial Chaos Tower fully revived, and the summoned golden-haired man actually possessed the strength of an Emperor Realm expert!
With a "boom," the Primordial Chaos Tower and the golden-haired man, carrying overwhelming power, charged into the black mist, joining the sword energy in the fight against it.
"No—"
"Where did this Emperor-level artifact come from?!"
"Get out of here!!"
A voice filled with shock and anger resounded from within the black mist.
Originally, the power gap between the black mist and the sword energy wasn't significant. Their confrontation was a back-and-forth affair, with neither side truly able to annihilate the other.
But with the intervention of the Primordial Chaos Tower, the situation instantly changed!
More and more of the black mist was annihilated. The sound of swords echoed through the sky, and the Primordial Chaos Tower, heavy and ancient, exuded a majestic aura as it continuously ground down the black mist.
This astonishing battle lasted for a full two and a half hours.
"I am not reconciled!!"
"No—"
Finally, accompanied by a shrill and unwilling scream, the dense black mist completely dissipated.
A snow-white skull fell, turning into ashes in mid-air and scattering with the wind.
The Primordial Chaos Tower also lost its power support, its light faded, and it returned to Su Chen's hand.
At the center of the rift valley, only a golden, blazing ancient sword floated quietly.
However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that beneath the brilliant golden light, this ancient sword was already fragmented and incomplete, barely pieced together.
"I am the Limitless Sword Emperor, and I perished together with the extraterrestrial demon to protect the world."
"Now, the last wisp of the extraterrestrial demon's remnant soul has also been annihilated, and my mission is complete."
"Little friend, since you have lent me a hand, I shall grant you a fortuitous encounter."
From within the ancient sword, a weak but gentle voice echoed.
"Thank you, Senior,"
Su Chen said, "But this junior cultivates the way of the blade and is not suitable for Senior's sword path."
"Why not let them inherit Senior's sword path instead?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin's hearts raced. They never expected that Su Chen would be willing to give up such an opportunity.
"You are indeed thoughtful,"
The Limitless Sword Emperor said softly, "Very well then, but my last wisp of power won't last much longer. I will impart the Limitless Sword Sutra to you all. How much you can gain will depend on your own good fortune."
Clang!!
With that, the golden ancient sword released endless sword intent, enveloping Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin.
Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin's sea of consciousnesses trembled violently. Their consciousnesses appeared in a vast world, where they saw sword energy swirling across the sky and countless mysteries of the sword path surfacing in their minds, causing them to awaken and gain constant enlightenment.
The Limitless Sword Emperor used his last remaining power to impart the Limitless Sword Sutra to the three women, while also demonstrating the mysteries of the sword path to help them quickly grasp the basics and comprehend the Limitless Sword Sutra.
This Limitless Sword Sutra was the powerful technique created from the Limitless Sword Emperor's lifelong understanding of the sword path. It was the culmination of his life's work!
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Su Chen's face.
As long as Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin mastered the Limitless Sword Sutra, most of his plan would be successful!
Time passed bit by bit.
Powerful sword intent permeated Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin's bodies, indicating that they had gained a great deal.
The light of the golden ancient sword grew increasingly faint, and the Limitless Sword Emperor's last remaining power was gradually being exhausted, about to dissipate.
Finally,
accompanied by a faint sigh, the golden ancient sword's light completely disappeared, turning into a pile of fragments, devoid of any luster.
This Emperor sword, which had once accompanied the Limitless Sword Emperor in battles across the land, had completely turned into scrap metal.
However, Su Chen's expression was solemn as he took out a jade box and carefully stored the Emperor sword.
Qing Ling, Qiao Yun, and Nan Yin woke up at the same time, with excitement and emotion in their eyes, clearly having gained a lot.
"Thank you, Young Maste…"
"Alright, we're all family, no need to be polite. Let's go."
Su Chen ruffled Qing Ling's little head, causing the words of gratitude that Qiao Yun and Nan Yin wanted to say to get stuck in their throats, unable to be spoken.
Just as Su Chen and the four were about to leave this fragment of the ancient battlefield,
outside the fragment of the ancient battlefield, a massive warship arrived, with many powerful experts descending upon this place.
When they saw the spatial rift in the mountains, their eyes lit up!
"The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion's information was indeed correct. There is a fortuitous encounter manifesting here!"
"Everyone, follow me in to explore!"
An expert raised his arm and called out, and hundreds of experts leaped down from the warship and stepped into the spatial rift.
