Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 5943: Southern Saint King

Upon entering the temple, a surge of life force slowly began to emanate, seemingly connected to his own Life essence.

Upon hearing Danbao’s transmission, Jian Wushuang remained composed outwardly but secretly communicated, “What’s the matter?”

“There’s a source of Life within this hall, but it’s been sealed by some kind of prohibition!”

Jian Wushuang’s eyes flickered.

A Life source like that was truly a treasure!

It was comparable to the innate Life force, and even akin to the Origin Source of Life.

He tried to restrain himself as much as possible.

Such treasures were not something they could easily meddle with, at least not at the moment.

“Restrain yourself. Now is not the time for this discussion. We can talk about it when the Great Monk and Divine Wood King arrive. Only then will we have the qualification to discuss this.”

Danbao nodded silently, refraining from saying more.

This treasure indeed held great significance for him.

Jian Wushuang could sense its resonance even through his Tribulation Armor, let alone Danbao, the reigning God of Life.

If it truly held great value for Danbao, then they would have to wait until the Great Monk and the others arrived before they could confidently explore it.

They might be wiped out before they even had a chance to speak if they acted recklessly now.

Since the three great divine spirits had pledged to help them search for the metallic lifeform, they were all in the same boat for now.

It was imperative to handle the situation carefully.

The search for metallic lifeforms couldn’t wait.

The three divine spirits first instructed Zhao Ge to inform the Universe Masters of the Eighth Tribulation realm within the Universe Sea to gather information, and then politely invited Jian Wushuang and the others into the inner hall.

They claimed it was for rest, but it was essentially a form of house arrest.

Although Jian Wushuang was anxious, he had no better alternative.

Sending Danbao to the Universe Sea was actually the easiest way to find metallic lifeforms, considering its source of Life.

Having the Universe Masters of the Immortal Divine Temple search would be too slow.

As the days passed by, the Great Monk, accompanied by Divine Wood King and others, roamed the Higher Heavens for three days before entering the Universe Sea.

Meanwhile, Jian Wushuang had been stuck in the Immortal Divine Temple for three cycles.

People were on the verge of going mad.

One day, in a secluded hall of the Immortal Divine Temple, Jian Wushuang was casually chatting and drinking with Wu Li, but their seclusion didn’t contribute much to their cultivation.

They either studied Life within their own universe or wandered around the temple.

Today, Wu Li emerged from seclusion, and they engaged in idle conversation.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps echoed outside the hall.

Wu Li immediately put down his wine glass and turned to look outside.

“Excuse us, sirs!”

A faint smile crossed the newcomer’s face as he hurriedly entered.

Over the years, Jian Wushuang and Wu Li had gained some understanding of the strong figures within the Immortal Divine Temple, aside from the three divine spirits.

Besides the three divine spirits, there were also ten divine kings.

Chaoge was just one of them.

These ten kings had all once led the Immortal Divine Temple.

Even the weakest among them was a peak figure of the Eighth Tribulation realm.

The person before them was the former ruler of the Immortal Divine Temple.

Chaoge wasn’t weak by any means.

“Southern Saint King!” Jian Wushuang and Wu Li both stood up simultaneously.

He was a Universe Master of the Eighth Tribulation realm.

He had stepped down due to Chaoge’s appearance and had later ventured into the Universe Sea, aiming for further advancement.

Unfortunately, every step in the Eighth Tribulation realm was extremely difficult.

Among the Universe Masters, he was considered one of the top figures in the Eighth Tribulation realm.

However, when it came to divine power, the starting point was millions.

It was definitely the peak combat power of the Eight Tribulations realm.

This was the might of the Universe Master.

Facing such a formidable opponent, Jian Wushuang and Wu Li naturally didn’t dare to be negligent.

The Southern Saint King gestured with his hand, indicating, “No need to be formal, sit down and speak!”

Jian Wushuang and Wu Li followed suit, sitting down, while also anticipating what was to

come.

Perhaps there would be good news again.

During their second epoch in the Immortal Divine Temple, they almost located the position of the metal lifeforms.

They had already captured its aura, but by the time they arrived, the pyramid had vanished.

Later, even the three great divine spirits personally went in search, but they never found it

again.

However, it also gave them hope.

Now, all the Eight Tribulations realm powerhouses sleeping in the Immortal Divine Temple

had been summoned.

They were all thrown into the Universe Sea.

In fact, the three great divine spirits were even more anxious than they were.

Because there were too many things at stake regarding the power of Life.

Over the years, Jian Wushuang had also learned that the three great divine spirits were not of

the Three Tribulations.

They were special existences.

That was also the reason why the other party was so powerful.

In terms of surface strength, they were even stronger than Chi Jiuxiao.

Perhaps the three of them combined could contend evenly with Chi Jiuxiao.

It should be noted that even the Great Monk and Divine Wood King together would fall before

Chi Jiuxiao.

Special Life Forms.

Their growth potential was much higher than cultivators.

It could be seen at the same level.

“This time we’ve come to find you because of manpower issues. Originally, you didn’t need to

go, but recently a new secret realm has appeared in the Universe Sea. As you know, there are still many Universe Masters in the Immortal Divine Temple, they don’t lack the power of life,

but what they lack is opportunity, so…”

Jian Wushuang nodded solemnly, “Understood!”

Although he said this on the surface, his heart was already ecstatic.

He had long wanted to enter the Universe Sea.

Even if he had to follow those people from the Immortal Divine Temple, he would still go in.

Staying in the Immortal Divine Temple all the time was not a long-term plan at all.

In the blink of an eye, three epochs had passed.

There was still no news from the Great Monk and Divine Wood King.

Not only was Jian Wushuang anxious, but Wu Li was even more so.

If they continued to be trapped here, how much longer would they have to wait?

“Southern Saint King, whatever you need us three to do, just say it!”

Although Jian Wushuang was excited in his heart, he still had to restrain himself on the

surface.

Otherwise, the other party would definitely think he had ulterior motives.

Actually, now in the Immortal Divine Temple, they were of great use to Jian Wushuang and the others, and they might not necessarily want to escape.

Danbao had a special method to find the metal life, and by then, they could rely on the power of the Immortal Divine Temple to eradicate the metal lifeform.

With their current situation, even if they escaped, they couldn’t deal with the metal lifeform

when they met the Great Monk and the others.

At first, they were a bit careless.

They thought that even if the Wanyao Universe was powerful and its population had reached its peak, it wouldn’t have more strong individuals than the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

But now it seemed that they had overestimated themselves.

In just a single Sky Dome World, Eighth Tribulation realm powerhouses could survive until

now, and just from what Jian Wushuang had seen, there were at least five Universe Masters of

the Eighth Tribulation realm.

And there were still many Eighth Tribulation realm Special Life Forms that were equally

powerful.

Not to mention the Scattered Tribulations, just considering the number of these

powerhouses, it could rival the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

This was not counting the Higher Heavens.

Otherwise, there would be even more.

Originally, they thought that with the Great Monk and Divine Wood King, they could handle

everything.

But with the threat of metal lifeform now, they also had to face Babidi.

Passive!

They had been passive in many things along the way.

Ultimately, it was because Jian Wushuang’s strength was not enough.

Or rather, the things he encountered exceeded the capacity he should have borne.
