Chapter 88: Is the World About to Change?

And on the other side, at the Ten Thousand Swords Gate,

Chu Jianchen had arrived here.

He wanted to see the Sword Mountain of the Ten Thousand Swords Gate.

"The Ten Thousand Swords Gate is hailed as the number one sword dao Saint-level land in the mortal realm; I hope it won't disappoint me!"

He had seen the sword techniques of the Ten Thousand Swords Gate before;

although sharp, they could not yet be called the number one in the mortal realm,

at most being on par with the Saint Spirit Sword Technique carried by his own Saint Sword Moye,

so at this moment, he had personally come to the Sword Mountain,

hoping to discover a more profound sword dao.

On a stone mountain that pierced into the clouds like a sharp sword,

broken long swords that had been washed by time were scattered and stuck in the rocks in a disorderly fashion.

As soon as Chu Jianchen approached,

the long swords on the Sword Mountain vibrated in unison, emitting sounds of sword humming,

and then an invisible sword intent like a surging tide rushed toward Chu Jianchen,

as if to submerge him within it.

Hum!

At the critical moment,

wisps of sword light were released from his body,

sharp and intimidating!

Seemingly sensing the sword Qi on him,

those invisible sword lights completely dissipated and disappeared.

"So that's how it is. If one doesn't have sword dao talent, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to climb this Sword Mountain!"

Chu Jianchen's expression was cold and firm,

his right hand holding the Saint Sword Moye,

and he walked up the Sword Mountain along the winding path with steady steps.

And behind him,

many Chu family elites also wanted to climb the Sword Mountain,

but unfortunately, as soon as they stepped in,

they were forced back by that terrifying sword intent.

"Those without sword dao talent, do not force yourselves to climb, otherwise you will be injured by the sword intent here!"

Chu Jianchen looked back and warned.

"Yes!"

Others could only nod helplessly,

Although Chu Jianchen was no longer an elder,

as one of the two Left and Right Dragon Zuns of the Dragon Guard,

his status was no less than any elder,

and his strength was even above all the elders.

After all, only the strongest batch of people in the Chu family were qualified to enter the Dragon Guard.

So his words carried great weight.

Many Chu family members coveted the opportunities here,

but those without sword dao talent could only leave obediently!

Only a few people climbed the Sword Mountain.

As Chu Jianchen gradually moved upward,

the sword intent that had disappeared before appeared again,

pressing down on him.

"A test?"

"The stronger the sword dao talent, the higher one can reach?"

"Since that's the case..."

The Heavenly Sword Martial Soul emerged from behind him,

and sharp sword intent permeated the surroundings.

Sure enough,

the appearing sword intent pressure disappeared again.

After walking for a long time like this,

Chu Jianchen arrived at the halfway point of the mountain.

Once here,

the long swords stuck on the surrounding rocks vibrated from time to time,

emitting low sword humming sounds,

and even occasionally emitting wisps of sword Qi that slashed toward Chu Jianchen.

Even with him using his Martial Soul, cold sweat had already seeped out on his forehead.

"So terrifying!"

"I possess a King-level Heavenly Sword Martial Soul, yet I can only reach this level?"

"Then what kind of sword dao talent would be needed to reach the top of this Sword Mountain? Saint-level or Emperor-level?"

Thinking of this,

Chu Jianchen no longer held back,

and a blood-red long sword emerged from the center of his brow,

after which wisps of blood-colored sword light shot out from his body,

blocking the sword intent from the surrounding Sword Mountain.

This was a Saint Body—the Nine Tribulations Sword Body,

which was a reward he had obtained through the Heart-Refining Tower.

Chu Jianchen had obtained a Martial Soul Evolution Pill the first time he passed the Heart-Refining Tower,

allowing his Spirit-level Martial Soul to evolve to the King-level.

He had wanted to continue obtaining Martial Soul Evolution Pills,

but he hadn't expected that the second time he would obtain the Saint-level physique, the Nine Tribulations Sword Body.

For a time, Chu Jianchen didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

As a sword cultivator,

he only wanted to wholeheartedly improve his Heavenly Sword Martial Soul,

hoping that one day he could upgrade it to the Saint-level or even Emperor-level!

"It seems I will have to enter the Heart-Refining Tower a few more times in the future!"

Thinking of this, he felt a lingering fear.

The more times one entered the Heart-Refining Tower,

the more terrifying the illusions inside became,

and wanting to pass perfectly was even more difficult than difficult.

He really didn't have much confidence that he could continue to obtain evolution pills!

Taking a deep breath,

Chu Jianchen cast aside the distracting thoughts in his heart and continued to climb the mountain.

With the blessing of the Nine Tribulations Sword Body and the Heavenly Sword Martial Soul,

he suddenly felt his whole body light,

and his steps became much lighter.

But in the end,

he only stopped at a place nearly a hundred meters away from the summit;

this was already his limit!

Chu Jianchen did not force it;

anyway, the Sword Mountain was right here,

and it had fallen into the hands of their Chu family,

so there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

He sat cross-legged there and began to comprehend the supreme sword dao around him.

And on the other side,

in the Desolate God Pavilion,

a youth with a resolute and rugged face,

a burly build, and messy, unkempt hair, entered the Desolate God Pavilion, which others dared not approach.

"My goodness, this guy Chu Huang actually has a connection with the inheritance of the Desolate God Pavilion?"

Many people around were envious.

"Perhaps this is his opportunity!"

Chu Yunling said.

The inheritance of the Desolate God Pavilion was terrifying;

it seemed to contain a divine and strange power here,

which could make all things wither and perish,

and even Martial Emperor powerhouses could not stop it.

But she felt no envy,

because the opportunity the Beast God had bestowed upon her was already enough to make the whole clan jealous.

While the Chu family was harvesting the opportunities of the five great Saint-level lands,

the regions where the five Saint-level lands were located were completely shaken,

and the news of the Saint-level lands being wiped out spread to the surroundings like a hurricane.

"The Divine Fist Sect was wiped out?"

"How is this possible? There wasn't even a sign beforehand!"

"Who could have such terrifying strength to wipe out a Saint-level land?"

"It's the Chu family, the Chu family of the Qian Domain!"

"Impossible, the Chu family is just an emerging seven-star family; how could they have the strength to wipe out a Saint-level land with several Martial Saints sitting in charge?"

"The Chu family is a seven-star family, that's true, but it is said that the Chu family has a Demon Emperor sitting in charge, and it was precisely because that Demon Emperor acted in secret that the Saint-level land was wiped out!"

"Demon Emperor? Can the mortal realm give birth to Emperor-grade powerhouses now?"

"And, isn't the Divine Fist Sect an affiliated force of the Hell Gate? It was destroyed; doesn't the Hell Gate even look?"

"......"
