Chapter 1404

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao was speechless for a moment.

Although Yan Yan Rumeng seemed to have untied her mental knot and returned to her usual spontaneous and carefree personality.

But why did it feel like he had invited trouble for himself?

Yan Yan Rumeng had truly let go.

This man before her had left an indelible mark in her heart, making it impossible for her to ever fall in love with another man in her life.

So why should she have to leave silently?

And why should she hide?

Although Yan Yan Rumeng knew the status of Jiang Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Jiang Luoli in Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao's heart.

She did not ask for much.

She only asked that Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao take a tiny bit of responsibility.

Was that an excessive request?

"So your shoulder, a quarter of an hour is not enough!"

Yan Yan Rumeng's sulking appearance actually gave her a unique beauty and temperament.

It was as if an iceberg beauty had melted, blooming with charming fragrance and style.

"Very well, as long as you are happy."

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao could only say this.

In the following days, Yan Yan Rumeng was also consolidating her own cultivation.

Generally speaking, breaking through via Immortal Dao substances would not lead to any unstable foundations.

After all, Immortal Dao substances were fundamentally different from the elixirs used for breakthroughs.

The only pity was that Jiang Jiang Luoli was not here.

So it was impossible to use her Primordial Spirit Immortal Body to amplify the effect of the Immortal Dao substances.

Of course, to be fair, if Jiang Jiang Luoli were here, Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao might not necessarily have helped Yan Yan Rumeng immediately.

After all, Jiang Jiang Luoli was a little vinegar jar.

When she got jealous, her jealousy was quite potent.

At a certain moment, the entire Sword Stele City suddenly erupted with noise and commotion.

"Oh, is it about to open?"

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao and Yan Yan Rumeng went out and discovered that other talents were also flying out of Sword Stele City.

At this moment, in the void outside Sword Stele City.

Standing there, no one knew since when, was a middle-aged man dressed in gray cloth robes, his appearance plain to the extreme.

His aura was restrained, and he held a plain iron sword in his arms; the iron sword was even somewhat rusted.

The various talents who rushed out of Sword Stele City were stunned upon seeing the gray-robed man, and then revealed expressions of shock and doubt.

The Sword Grave was very low-key among the ten forbidden zones of the Nine Heavens.

Moreover, its numbers were the fewest; throughout history, there had only been a handful of people, at most a dozen or so.

Therefore, the vast majority of Nine Heavens beings knew nothing about the experts of the Sword Grave.

But this did not prevent them from sensing the power of that gray-robed man.

That's right.

Although the gray-robed man was just standing there, there was even a trace of lazy, just-woken-up expression on his face.

Yet no one dared to question his strength.

At least for the talents present, this gray-robed man could easily crush them with his aura alone.

Therefore, the various talents present all kept silent; no one dared to be presumptuous.

The gray-robed man just stood in the void, holding his iron sword like that.

There was even a kind of sleepy drowsiness on his face.

And at this moment.

Two ferocious beasts pulled a chariot over.

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao and Yan Yan Rumeng sat on the chariot and also appeared.

Their appearance immediately sparked discussions from all sides.

The gray-robed man standing in the void suddenly saw the drowsiness on his face dissipate slightly.

A sword light sharp to the extreme flashed in his eyes as he looked at Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao immediately felt as if an iron sword capable of cleaving the heavens and earth was hacking toward him.

"Is this cultivation above the Quasi-Emperor level? The Sword Grave is truly full of hidden talents," Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao revealed a look of surprise.

It was no wonder the Sword Grave had only had a handful of people throughout history.

Even the one sent to deliver the message had Quasi-Emperor level strength.

It seemed the Sword Grave valued quality over quantity.

"The little fellow from the Jun Clan is indeed interesting; no wonder the Jun Clan can wield the four Immortal-Slaying Swords."

The gray-robed man also muttered to himself in his heart.

Even a low-key place like the Sword Grave had heard of Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao's great name.

The reason the Sword Grave paid some attention to Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao.

Was for one important reason.

That was that the Jun Clan controlled the four Immortal-Slaying Swords.

Those were supreme immortal artifacts that had truly slain immortals.

As a supreme sword-dao forbidden zone, the Sword Grave naturally had a special feeling toward the four Immortal-Slaying Swords.

At this time, two more figures arrived from the distant sky.

They were none other than Ye Ye Guchen and Situ Xue.

"Brother Jun, you've arrived," Ye Ye Guchen said calmly.

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"This... he..."

When the gray-robed man saw Ye Ye Guchen, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

That surprise could not be concealed, carrying a trace of shock and uncertainty.

"Hmm?"

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao was extremely meticulous and had keen observation.

He immediately noticed the gray-robed man's unusual expression.

He looked at Ye Ye Guchen with deep meaning, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes.

"Right, Ye Ye Guchen's past life was the Sword Demon Dugu Wubai; could it be..."

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao thought of Ye Ye Guchen's reincarnated identity.

Sword Demon, Sword Grave.

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao would not believe it if they had no connection at all.

"If that's the case, then it's even more interesting," Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.

"Young Master Jun, Young Master Ye, you've arrived."

Ji Miss Qingyi also appeared to greet them, and the three of them nodded in acknowledgment.

The gray-robed man withdrew his gaze after the initial shock.

His eyes flickered slightly, wondering what he was thinking about.

And just at this moment, suddenly, a sword light brilliant to the extreme, carrying an unprecedented intent of slaughter, fell directly toward Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao's side.

"Lacking in manners!"

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao's eyes sank instantly.

He flicked his sleeve.

A violent force of laws swept out like a storm, colliding with that heaven-tearing sword light, stirring up waves across the sky.

"Eh, it's the Sword Emperor from the Ruins of the Holy Spirit!"

Seeing this sword light, many talents understood in their hearts.

"Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao, this Emperor originally wanted to find an opportunity to descend to the lower realm to suppress you; I didn't expect you to have the guts to come to the Nine Heavens alone!"

Following this arrogant and cold voice.

A man appeared.

His long hair danced wildly, and every strand seemed to be spitting out sword energy, as if it could slice through the void.

However, what was most eye-catching about the man.

Was that his body was covered in sword scars!

Almost every inch of his skin had them, and there were crisscrossing sword scars on his cheeks as well.

It gave people a chilling feeling.

However, those sword scars were not left on him by anyone else.

Rather, they were the manifestation of the sword-dao mysteries he was born with.

In other words, every sword scar represented a type of insight the Sword Emperor had into sword-dao.

Moreover, the Sword Emperor himself was of the Holy Spirit clan, and these sword scars of his were also related to his true form.

At this moment, looking at his body, there were more than a thousand sword scars.

This represented that the Sword Emperor's attainments in sword-dao were, if not unique throughout history,

At least among the younger generation, they were at the peak, second to none.

"What a powerful sword intent!"

The one who reacted the most was not Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao.

It was Ye Ye Guchen instead.

His eyes burned, as if he had discovered another prey.

"Brother Ye, he is aiming for me," Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao smiled casually.

"Was it also you who injured the Little Stone Emperor?" the Sword Emperor said coldly.

"So what? If not for the turtle shell the Stone Emperor left him, he would have long been refined by my Mother Qi of All Things Cauldron," Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao said lazily.

However, when the Sword Emperor appeared.

Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao felt that the Daluo Sword Embryo in his spatial artifact seemed to tremble slightly, as if it had some kind of reaction.

"What exactly is this Sword Emperor's true form, to be able to make the Daluo Sword Embryo react?" Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

The Daluo Sword Embryo, like the Mother Qi of All Things Cauldron, possessed the qualifications to become an immortal artifact.

And to be able to make such a divine weapon react.

This Sword Emperor's true form aroused Jun Within Jun Xiaoyao's curiosity.

Using it as nourishment for the Daluo Sword Embryo seemed not bad.
