Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3521: The Great Spatial Sword Formation

“E-e-elder Nong, w-w-was this stone golem left by the Star Clustered Ancestor as well?” Chen Shuzhi gazed at the stone golem that had already shrunk to the size of a palm, resting in elder Nong’s hand. He seemed like he was still shaken.

Elder Nong constantly studied the stone golem. His eyes gradually lit up as he said slowly, “That’s right. This stone golem was indeed left behind by the Star Clustered Ancestor. Without the corresponding secret technique to control it, even disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens would be mercilessly slain by the stone golem if they entered this area. Unless they possess strength on par with the stone golem, only death would await them.”

Chen Shuzhi’s face became quite ugly when he heard that.

“This stone golem is the final line of defence of this place. The ninth floor should be the last floor.” Elder Nong scanned this space. His face was filled with emotion. “In the past, the Star Clustered Ancestor’s divine hall was a holy land that was beyond our reach in our eyes. I never even dreamt that there would be a day when I could stand on its highest floor.”

“Let’s go and check out what the Star Clustered Ancestor has left for us,” said elder Nong. He casually stowed the stone golem away in his Space Ring before proceeding towards the interior of the ninth floor.

Right when he took a few steps, the ninth floor began to shake violently. Violent Laws of Space pulsed fiercely. The space on the entire ninth floor immediately became a blur.

Shortly afterwards, chains after chains manifested in the space there, constructing an extremely tremendous and profound formation that filled the entire place, radiating with a startling energy.

The formation completely filled the space in the stone hall.

The sudden occurrence made elder Nong’s expression change drastically. Suddenly, he stopped, standing there in confusion.

“Elder Nong, what’s going on now?” Chen Shuzhi said sternly as soon as he reacted. The chains that wove through the air made both of their hearts stop. Even Jian Chen following them quietly became stern.

“I don’t know what’s going on either. The Star Clustered Ancestor never told me that this would happen,” elder Nong said sternly. The terrifying killing intent from the formation before his eyes gave him chills.

This was the colossal killing intent that could even strike fear into an Immortal Emperor.

Jian Chen’s eyes shone with uncertainty as well. As he faced the killing formation, he actually felt life-threatening danger.

However, he soon seemed to notice something and immediately relaxed. The formation hidden in the space here was clearly something to fall back on that the Star Clustered Ancestor had left here. It was set down to prevent any outsider from forcing their way in here. The key to nullifying the formation was the stone golem that blocked the entrance.

If someone forced their way in here, it would mean that they were extremely powerful. The stone golem obviously would not be their opponent. It would either be forcefully controlled or shattered.

However, if the stone golem was shattered or placed under control forcefully, the formation hidden in the space here would erupt with lethal power. Afterwards, it would blow up everything instantly with the divine hall and kill everyone inside.

If the stone golem had been subdued through the correct way, then the formation of mutual destruction obviously would not activate.

As a result, the key to the formation was the stone golem!

“This formation is probably powerful enough to kill Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts.” Jian Chen was secretly shocked as he sensed the tumultuous power behind the formation.

As soon as he thought up to there, the colossal formation hidden in the space there suddenly collapsed on itself before slowly dispersing in the air.

It had already completed its duty. From the moment that elder Nong had subdued the stone golem correctly, it had activated the formation’s function to collapse on itself.

At that moment, the tremendous killing intent that filled the entire hall vanished cleanly.

Elder Nong and Chen Shuzhi wiped the sweat from their foreheads. After a fright, they adjusted their emotions very quickly and immediately continued onwards cautiously.

Very soon, they reached the end of the ninth floor. A colossal Immortal Devouring Orchid appeared before them. All that remained was its flower and trunk. All of its tendrils had turned to dust and dispersed in the wind.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid’s strength when it was still alive had already reached Immortal Emperor.

As for the exact heavenly layer, it was very difficult to tell from its withered body.

But in the next moment, the remnants of the Immortal Devouring Orchid began to crumble bit by bit from top to bottom. It turned into dust and scattered in the air, piling up to form a layer on the ground.

In just a few seconds, the colossal Immortal Devouring Orchid followed the footsteps of the tendrils from earlier, completely reduced to dust.

Without the Immortal Devouring Orchid in the way, they immediately saw a throne that stood quietly behind it.

There was no one on the throne. Instead, a row of small jade swords levitated there, flowing with colour and shining with light. They radiated with powerful sword Qi and the power of the Laws of Space.

Each small sword contained the powers of the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space.

A jade slip hovered beside the row of small swords.

Jian Chen immediately recognised it as information regarding the swords. He immediately sent the senses of his soul inside secretly.

“The Great Spatial Sword Formation!” Jian Chen learnt the purpose of the small jade swords from the jade slip very quickly.

These small swords were like formation banners. When assembled together, they could create a tremendous killing formation.

“The Great Spatial Sword Formation is a powerful killing formation created from the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space. However, the complete Great Spatial Sword Formation requires thirty-six small jade swords, while there are only twenty here. It’s missing the other sixteen.” Jian Chen immediately read all of the jade slip’s contents. For a while, his gaze paused on the twenty small jade swords that hovered above the throne. Shortly afterwards, his mind shuddered. He immediately connected it with the item that the Star Clustered Ancestor had left behind in the treasury when he investigated it with the senses of his soul soon after he had joined the sect.

The item was a jade disc. It possessed a trace of blood. Back then, Jian Chen recognised it as a god artifact that was not forged to completion.

Now that he saw these small, jade swords, Jian Chen immediately discovered that the material of the jade disc was actually identical to the swords.

“The Great Spatial Sword Formation should be the strongest item that the Star Clustered Ancestor left behind for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. But clearly, the Star Clustered Ancestor suffered an accident before he could completely forge all thirty-six jade swords.”

“When he perished, he was probably still forging the twenty-first sword, which was the half-completed object shaped like a jade disc.” Jian Chen sighed inside. As soon as he thought about how the Star Clustered Ancestor was still arduously paving a path into the future for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens in his final moments, he felt strangeful sorrowful.

The twenty small jade swords that combined to form the Great Spatial Sword Formation ended up in elder Nong’s hands. Afterwards, they searched through the ninth floor again. After finding nothing, they all left the stone hall.

After leaving the stone hall, elder Nong and Chen Shuzhi let out a great sigh of relief. When they thought about everything they had found, their faces oozed with smiles.

At this moment, something suddenly happened. A spatial blade flashed past elder Nong and Chen Shuzhi like a bolt of lightning.

Shortly afterwards, Chen Shuzhi and elder Nong were overcome with great pain. Their hands had been cut off. Blood spurted out.

Before they could even recover from the pain of losing their hands, a hand silently extended out from space, removing the Space Rings from their severed hands at a steady pace.

At that moment, elder Nong and Chen Shuzhi’s Space Rings had been stolen.

Everything had happened far too suddenly. Elder Nong and Chen Shuzhi were completely unprepared. Even when they possessed an Immortal-destroying Thunder, they could not activate it in time.

Now that their Space Rings had fallen into the hands of someone else, they could not even preserve the Immortal-destroying Thunder.

“The Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor!” Elder Nong endured the heart-wrenching pain from his wrist as his eyes turned bloodshot, staring straight ahead.

The scholarly Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor dressed in white clothes slowly appeared. He smiled gently at Chen Shuzhi and Nong Fugui.
