Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

Wen Qingye shook his head and said slowly, ”Your Swordsmanship is too poor.”

”You!” Shii Tangyu’s face flushed red. When had anyone ever called his Swordsmanship poor? If his Swordsmanship wasn’t outstanding, how could he have been accepted into Cloud Conceal Peak?

His Swordsmanship had already reached the level of Tunnel Swordsmanship. Although it was only the first layer, he was already quite exceptional among the younger generation. And yet, Wen Qingye had called it poor.

”Wen Qingye, I’ll kill you!” Shii Tangyu roared. With a suction of his palm, the sword returned to his hand. He then raised it high, the surging Primordial Qi constantly drawn toward it. A shimmering, cold light glinted on the Sword Body.

”Cloud Chaos!”

His sword slashed down, seeming to unleash surging clouds with a majestic and powerful momentum. A Sword Aura was hidden within that cloud-like energy.

Wen Qingye had already retracted his Still Water Sword. With a backhand grip, SHING, the One Thought Sword was unsheathed.

Golden light flickered on the blade, and an endless radiance emanated from Wen Qingye’s body. Shimmering with brilliant colors, an aura as grand as mountains and rivers erupted from him.

”Third Form of the Sword Emperor Technique! Fame That Moves Mountains and Rivers!”

A resonant hum from the sword echoed in all directions, carrying with it a supreme, tyrannical majesty.

He slashed down, unleashing a massive Sword Qi several meters long. The entire secret chamber seemed to be filled with this Sword Qi. In an instant, waves of energy rolled out with overwhelming force.

CRACKLE—BOOM—

The golden Sword Qi crashed into the clouds of energy, erupting with a furious roar as they clashed violently.

BANG!

Then, a shattering sound was heard, followed by a spray of bloody rain that splattered across the secret chamber.

Wen Qingye’s expression was indifferent as he gazed at the empty space before him.

A drop of blood landed on Tang Rui’s face. He couldn’t help but touch it, his eyes filled with terror as he stared at the blood on his hand. He swallowed hard.

Shii Tangyu was already severely injured, with less than eighty percent of his cultivation. Furthermore, Wen Qingye was bolstered by his abundant Primordial Qi and Martial Arts like his Swordsmanship and the Five Elements Body Refining Technique. With one’s strength waning and the other’s waxing, how could he possibly be Wen Qingye’s match?

”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!” At that moment, Tang Rui looked up and found Wen Qingye staring at him. He immediately began to beg for his life.

But he quickly realized that Wen Qingye’s gaze had shifted back to the statue.

’This statue?’ The moment Wen Qingye’s eyes fell on the statue, he immediately sensed that it was extraordinary. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. ’The wings...’

With a leap, Wen Qingye grabbed one of the statue’s wings.

RIP!

Wen Qingye ripped the statue’s left wing clean off. A strange, dazzling light pulsed from within, brilliant and captivating. It looked like a scroll.

Wen Qingye caught the scroll and examined it closely. Painted on it was a beautiful landscape of mountains and rivers. Though simple, its spiritual essence seemed to stir his very Divine Soul. He couldn’t help but be inwardly startled.

”The Mountain River Atlas!”

The Mountain River Atlas, a legendary Supreme Immortal-Grade Spiritual Artifact. It was a famous Magical Artifact from the dawn of time that had passed through the hands of many Great Powers before vanishing without a trace. Its fame and fearsome might were so great that even Wen Qingye was quite wary of it.

This was because it was one of the few Immortal-Grade Spiritual Artifacts that could directly attack a person’s Primordial Spirit. Countless masters had died to the Mountain River Atlas back in the day.

However, the one in Wen Qingye’s hand was naturally not the ancient Mountain River Atlas, nor was it a replica. It was a half-finished product.

There were two main difficulties in refining the Mountain River Atlas. The first was the initial refining method and technique. The second was gathering ninety-nine different kinds of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and slowly integrating them into the atlas, only then could it become a Supreme Grade Immortal-Grade Spiritual Artifact.

This particular Mountain River Atlas had likely been abandoned after only thirty-odd types of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures were added. It could be considered a Magical Artifact at the Emperor Peak. Moreover, the atlas hadn’t been used in many years and would need to be nourished with Primordial Qi for some time before it could be used.

’Let the Mountain River Atlas reappear in the world through my hands.’ Wen Qingye smiled faintly and put away the Mountain River Atlas.

Just then, a series of sounds came from the passageway to the left.

Wen Qingye couldn’t help but frown.

A moment later, seven or eight figures emerged from the darkness. The ones in the lead were Liu Xuan, Youx Dong, Wang Hai, and a few other Martial Artists.

However, the three of them had torn clothes, clearly having just gone through a fierce battle.

When Tang Rui saw Liu Xuan, a trace of joy appeared in his eyes, as if he had just breathed a sigh of relief.

”Wen Qingye?” Liu Xuan saw Wen Qingye standing by the stone table and Tang Rui collapsed on the ground. She couldn’t help but ask, ”Did you find any treasures here?”

”Right here in my hands.” Wen Qingye took out three Martial Arts Bamboo Scrolls and said with a light smile.

Liu Xuan’s eyes lit up when she saw the Martial Arts Bamboo Scrolls in Wen Qingye’s hands. She then took out a butterfly-shaped fragment from her waist and smiled, ”We also found a broken Spirit-Grade Magical Artifact. It seems this trip wasn’t a waste after all.”

Wen Qingye nodded. His Five Elements Body Refining Technique had advanced further, and he had obtained the Still Water Sword and the broken Mountain River Atlas. This trip truly hadn’t been a waste.

”Let’s hurry down this path and look for that old man and Shii Tangyu,” Liu Xuan said, pointing to the passageway Wen Qingye had come from.

”No need,” Wen Qingye said, shaking his head.

Youx Dong asked strangely, ”Why not?”

”They’re all dead,” Wen Qingye said softly.

Hearing Wen Qingye’s calm and indifferent words in this environment, everyone present felt a shiver run down their spines. The way they looked at Wen Qingye changed.

Liu Xuan looked at Wen Qingye intently and said, ”Exploring this tomb was always going to be dangerous. Deaths are to be expected. I also said before that Jinfeng will not ask for any of the treasures found in this tomb. Everything belongs to whoever finds it.”

Wen Qingye nodded. After a moment of contemplation, he said, ”In my opinion, we should re-seal this tomb when we leave. The tomb’s sudden activity was solely because of that coffin. Now that the demonic creature from the coffin is gone, this place should be sealed.”

That Fur Corpse was incredibly strong. If it were to return to this tomb and absorb the Yin Qi here, Wen Qingye believed that in less than ten years, its strength would advance by leaps and bounds, reaching the level of a Flying Corpse. Killing it then would be far more troublesome.

Wang Hai also nodded heavily and said, ”Mm, the young brother is right.”

”Alright, let’s head out then,” Liu Xuan immediately agreed, hearing both Wang Hai and Wen Qingye say so.

The group followed the long corridor, slowly making their way toward the outer parts of the tomb.

When they reached the entrance of the tomb, they were stunned to find Fang Yu and four other Yin-Yang Realm Martial Artists leaning against the wall, chatting happily and looking very pleased.

”Brother Wen, you’re out! It looks like quite a few people are missing,” Fang Yu said with a grin, standing up happily when he saw Wen Qingye.

Wen Qingye nodded. Fang Yu’s aura was much stronger than before his breakthrough; he had already reached the Ninth Heaven of the Yin-Yang Realm.

The Yin Qi in the tomb was heavy, and a lot of people were now missing. Everyone was impatient to leave, so they hurried toward the tomb entrance.
