Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6393: Gathering in One Place

This place was rather unusual, and it was guarded by Guardian Yunhai.

He was a powerful Dao Lord.

Entering this place without warning and concealing their presence clearly indicated they had

no intention of greeting the other party.

”Follow me!” Ancestor Xue He transmitted his voice.

He immediately led the two into the thick clouds.

After flying for a short while, they arrived at the Yunhai behind Yunhai Mountain.

Below the sea of clouds was a vast, endless ocean.

Swoosh!

The three descended, and ripples spread instantly across the surface of the sea.

”Iʼve brought the divine beast this time. If it still doesnʼt work, weʼll have no choice but to take the other path!” Ancestor Xue He took a deep breath and led the two of them into the sea. They dove deep into the ocean, descending ten thousand feet until they reached the seabed. The depths were not only silent but pitch black, with no signs of life around them.

After traveling tens of thousands of miles along the seabed, Ancestor Xue He finally stopped, turning to Wutai Dou. ”Release the Black Flood Dragon.”

”Understood!” Wutai Dou did not hesitate and immediately released the Black Flood Dragon.

This was because the sect master had instructed them to follow Ancestor Xue Heʼs orders in everything.

Upon seeing the Black Flood Dragon, Ancestor Xue Heʼs tense expression softened with a trace of joy.

His tone towards the two also became much more relaxed, saying, ”Wait here. Do not move around recklessly, and be sure not to reveal your presence!”

”Understood!” Qinglin obediently agreed this time.

Wutai Dou also nodded obediently.

Satisfied, Ancestor Xue He glanced at the two before leaving.

Though he said he was leaving, he merely entered a nearby underwater canyon.

He continued to descend for several thousand more feet, and the pressure of the deep sea had already reached the point where it could crush a cultivator in the Great Ascension stage. It was only then that Ancestor Xue He stopped.

He began to feel around the rock walls of the crevice.

Before long, his hand found a movable stone.

With a gentle twist, a stone door appeared on the wall.

Creak!

The stone door automatically opened.

A passage was revealed.

After glancing around, Ancestor Xue He entered the passage with the Black Flood Dragon.

What he didnʼt realize was that just before he entered, a mysterious figure had already slipped ahead of him.

Ancestor Xue He remained completely unaware. His strength had already reached the peak of the Ninth Tribulation True Immortal, just a step away from becoming a Dao Lord. For someone to stand right in front of him without being noticed, there were probably no more than three people in the entire Ancient Sea Domain capable of such a feat.

Whoosh!

Inside the passage, the seawater was kept out, and the surrounding walls were covered in moss that thrived from the moisture, giving the entire passage a greenish hue. Ancestor Xue He cautiously advanced. Before long, a massive beast head came into view. The beast head had fangs and enormous eyes, giving it a terrifyingly fierce appearance. Standing before it, Ancestor Xue He swallowed nervously before saying to the Black Flood Dragon at his side, ”Drip a drop of your essence blood on it!”

”Roar!” The Black Flood Dragon resisted at first, but its life imprint began to glow, leaving it no choice but to obediently drip its blood onto the beast head.

As soon as the dark green blood touched the beast head, a golden light burst forth.

Ancestor Xue He quickly took out a small bottle, uncorked it, and dripped several drops of golden blood onto the beast head.

Buzz!

The seabed began to tremble instantly.

The sudden movement startled Ancestor Xue He.

The beast head before him seemed to emit a furious response.

However, after glowing briefly, it quickly fell silent once more.

”Sigh, still a failure!” Ancestor Xue He muttered with a hint of reluctance.

Jian Wushuang had gone to great lengths to open the door. He had even obtained a considerable amount of ancient demon blood and promised the Beastmaster Sectʼs leader certain benefits, borrowing a divine beast to assist him.

But in the end, he still failed.

”It seems the only way forward is that passage,” he muttered, shaking his head. With a slight nod, he led the black flood dragon away from the passage.

Unbeknownst to him, his movements had already attracted someoneʼs attention.

Just as Jian Wushuang emerged from the passage, a stout and powerful figure blocked his

path.

”Brother Xue He, why didnʼt you think of me when there were benefits to be had?” Guardian Qifeng said with a sly grin, the corners of his mouth curving up mischievously.

Old Ancestor Xue He was startled, silently blaming himself for being too careless.

Meanwhile, deep beneath the sea, another group was steadily making their way toward this location.

”How much further, Blood Sun?”

”Soon, donʼt be impatient at this point!” True Lord Blood Sun could barely contain his

excitement now that they had safely arrived.

He was so thrilled that he found it difficult to keep his composure.

Originally, he had intended to check out the main entrance, but his impatience got the better

of him, and he headed straight for the secret passage.

Splash!

After crossing the rushing underwater whirlpools, the group arrived at a vast undersea

canyon.

Descending further into the depths, they followed Blood Sun into a narrow crevice in the

canyon.

Once they passed through the tight space, they entered a flat area nestled within the mountain

range, a valley within a valley.

”Weʼre here!” True Lord Blood Sunʼs voice trembled with excitement.

He quickly advanced and located the passage marked on the jade pendant.

However, the passage was blocked by some rubble. Using thought power, he easily moved the

stones aside, revealing a dark tunnel before them.

Just as they were about to enter, a voice made them break out in a cold sweat.

”Haha, Brother Xue He, it looks like youʼre not the only one who knows about this place!” A

rough voice echoed, and everyone was taken aback.

Immortal Ziyuʼs pupils contracted sharply, as if she had seen a demon.

”Guardian Qifeng... Old Ancestor Xue He, True Immortal Qinglin, Master Wu Taidou!”

Four figures descended from above, the weakest of them being at the Eighth Step of True

Immortal.

The old man Tian Can nearly collapsed from shock.

It was over.

This time, they were truly done for.

True Lord Blood Sun felt the same way. Though he still had a trump card, his opponents were

Dao Masters!

And not just any Dao Master-these were powerful ones.

He had heard his elder brother mention Guardian Qifengʼs strength, which was formidable enough to rank among the top fifty in the Ancient Sea Domain.

His own trump card would likely appear as a mere trinket in the eyes of such an opponent, hardly posing any real threat.

”What should I do? What am I supposed to do now?” True Lord Blood Sunʼs mind screamed in

panic.

At that moment, another powerful aura descended upon them, accompanied by a voice filled with authority. ”Qifeng, this is my territory. You dare bring Xue He here without notifying

me? Do you no longer respect my authority?”

The next moment, a figure engulfed in blue flames appeared in their midst.

At the sight of this figure, the old man Tian Can nearly fainted.

”Brother Murong, no need to be so angry!” Old Ancestor Xue He cast a meaningful glance at

the blue-flamed figure before him.

The name Murong caused everyoneʼs expressions to shift.

It was Murong Yunhai, one of the four great Guardians, also known as Guardian Yunhai in the

outside world.

He was extraordinarily powerful, rumored to be the strongest among the four Guardians.

Even Guardian Qifeng was no match for him.

His arrival instantly drew everyoneʼs attention, halting Guardian Qifengʼs intended assault.

”Xue He, I know youʼre involved in this. Speak!” Guardian Yunhai ignored Qifeng entirely, turning his gaze directly toward Old Ancestor Xue He.
