Legend of Swordsman

But this time, the Great Monk was insistent, continuously persuading Danbao that it would be best to go in.

Perhaps this place had something to do with one of the Realm King.

They had come all this way; surely someone had arranged everything in secret.

Otherwise, why would they end up here instead of directly entering the Higher Heavens of the Wanliu Universe?

Danbao had no choice, especially seeing the determined looks on everyone’s faces,

shimmering with golden light.

Unable to refuse, he could only nod.

Led by Lord Hengmu, the others followed suit.

Divine Wood King was unfamiliar with this place, but seeing Lord Hengmu entering, he followed suit.

Although the Great Monk was very interested in this place, he could still distinguish priorities and remained by Danbao’s side without moving an inch.

“By the way, where’s Jian Wushuang?” Lian Xing, who hadn’t gone down yet, looked around and didn’t spot Jian Wushuang, expressing surprise, “Could he have gotten lost?”

“Perhaps he’s gone in!” The Great Monk added from the side.

He had already sensed Wuli’s aura, entering that City of the Sky.

That’s why he remained so calm.

There were indeed treasures in the sky.

But obtaining them wasn’t so easy.

This legend was widely spread, known from the Eighth Tribulation realm to ordinary people.

But no one had ever found it.

Initially, the Great Monk thought this place was just a legend.

He didn’t expect to see it today.

That also meant his speculation was true.

The path they were walking was arranged in advance by the Realm King.

Through these trials, they could enter the Higher Heavens and then ascend the stairway to godhood at the Universe Sea.

The first stone monument was just about finding the Monkey Head Mushroom.

It wasn’t particularly difficult.

He didn’t know what purpose it served.

But this place was different.

Probably, it led to entering the City of the Sky.

There must be extremely secretive things there.

A strong aura suddenly burst from the valley below at that moment.

“Go!” Danbao’s figure flashed, leading everyone downward.

The aura of a powerful entity emerged.

Lord Hengmu at the forefront had already discerned the threat below.

“Jian Wushuang!”

The first one they spotted fleeing was Jian Wushuang.

Then came countless vines striking.

Seeing Lord Hengmu, Jian Wushuang felt a glimmer of hope and hastily exclaimed, “Hengmu, help me hold him off!”

Before Lord Hengmu could respond, Jian Wushuang dashed past him without even a glance, then ran off.

Lord Hengmu cursed loudly as the vines reached him, forcing him to intercept.

Fortunately, despite their formidable aura, the vines lacked much power.

As a native powerhouse of Wanliu, Lord Hengmu was utterly unfamiliar with these vines.

After resisting for a moment, he found them not much of a threat.

So he let two great battle beasts clear the way and continued flying downward himself.

By now, Jian Wushuang had already spotted Divine Wood King, Danbao, and the others, so he calmed down and waited for everyone’s arrival.

“How is it down there?” Danbao descended with the others and asked Jian Wushuang. “There are some minor ripples, but no significant threats!” Jian Wushuang shook his head, then took a breath and continued, “Wu Li has already entered that sky garden, but when I tried to enter, I was stopped!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Wu Li had gone in, but Jian Wushuang couldn’t.

Many of the powerhouses didn’t know much about Wu Li.

Most of their attention was on Jian Wushuang.

But it was unexpected that Jian Wushuang was stopped while Wu Li entered the City of the Sky

alone.

“You didn’t go in!” Elder Blu was also extremely surprised.

He thought Jian Wushuang had gone in with Wu Li.

But now, Jian Wushuang was outside while Wu Li was inside.

This was indeed beyond his expectations.

“Since there’s no great danger, let’s go down and take a look first!” Danbao’s scepter

trembled, and the shield solidified once again.

They plunged down.

The huge savage beast that burst out of the water was on par with the two great battle beasts.

Indeed, as Jian Wushuang had said, there wasn’t much danger.

Either Elder Blu or Divine Wood King alone could handle it.

If they all joined forces, it probably wouldn’t take more than a few breaths to resolve it.

“What’s this?” Elder Blu’s gaze grew deep.

Lord Hengmu didn’t recognize these vines.

But he did.

Seeing Elder Blu’s surprised expression, Jian Wushuang asked, “Do you recognize them?”

Although these vines weren’t powerful, they were extremely eerie.

They exuded a tremendous pressure, almost nullifying the sensation of divine power

fluctuations.

They couldn’t be underestimated.

If Elder Blu knew the identity of the opponent, that would be best.

Upon hearing Jian Wushuang’s inquiry, Elder Blu didn’t conceal anything. He just looked at Danbao and then spoke, “Young Master, if I’m not mistaken, this should be that old man, Chi Tenggui, a pinnacle Eighth Tribulation realm powerhouse from Higher Heavens. He went mad in search of the City of the Sky and later disappeared. I didn’t expect him to appear here!” After hearing this, Danbao moved his scepter, intending to suppress Chi Tenggui with the power of Life.

If it were a cultivator who had fallen into madness, there was no need to besiege them; it sufficed to drive them away.

But his Life Origin Source, upon touching the Chi Tenggui, had no effect at all.

This left many people puzzled.

In the past, Danbao could use the power of Life to temporarily suppress the Chi Jiuxiao.

Later, Chi Jiuxiao completely broke free from Life and no longer succumbed to Danbao’s

suppression.

How could an ancient cultivator, who hadn’t even reached the peak of the Eighth Tribulation realm, withstand Danbao’s suppression?

Jian Wushuang’s eyes flickered; he always felt that the oppressive feeling was getting

stronger.

Something bad was about to happen.

It turned out to be true.

Danbao couldn’t suppress it at all.

He quickly said to Divine Wood King and the Great Monk, “Since we can’t suppress it, why not

join forces to kill him? It’s also a way to eliminate a disaster!”

Danbao was the God of Life, and this kind of thing wasn’t good for him to do.

So let them handle it!

Divine Wood King and the Great Monk had already planned for this.

Upon hearing Jian Wushuang take the initiative, they immediately nodded in agreement.

And deliberately avoiding Danbao, they went straight down.

Danbao frowned.

Not because he had become the God of Life, he should act like a saint.

In fact, there was no need to do this.

But under the support of everyone, he was too well-protected.

Being protected to become a god.

On the path to godhood, not a drop of blood was allowed to stain him.

When he first saw the Great Monk, he felt that what the other said made some sense.

But now, it seemed a bit off.

Jian Wushuang didn’t think too much about it, patting Danbao’s shoulder and saying, “Don’t

worry, since he doesn’t succumb to your suppression, it means he has long been detached from life. His death has nothing to do with us!”

“Don’t feel too much pressure!” Elder Blu also came to persuade at this time.

Danbao shook his head without saying a word.
