Chapter 4361

Inside the illusion of the inheritance trial.

Ye Guchen followed the life trajectory of the Human Sword Ancestor.

Breaking through step by step, defeating many unimaginable opponents and enemies.

For other sword cultivators, this was almost impossible to achieve.

But for Ye Guchen, he had walked through it step by step.

And what was important was.

Not to mention whether he would obtain the inheritance or not.

Ye Guchen had experienced this journey of training.

From his earliest opponent, the Xuanyuan Emperor.

To later lords of a world, and even descendants of the Tyrant Clan.

Everything the Human Sword Ancestor experienced, Ye Guchen had also experienced.

This kind of experience itself was a precious asset.

It could be said that even without obtaining the Human Sword Ancestor's inheritance.

Just this kind of training had immense benefits.

Ye Guchen's comprehension of sword Dao also became increasingly profound amidst this training.

And in the later stages, the opponents of the Human Sword Ancestor, Jian Chen, also became increasingly terrifying.

But at the same time, the Human Sword Ancestor himself also became stronger.

Therefore, when Ye Guchen fought against enemies from the perspective of the Human Sword Ancestor, he was instead even more adept.

After experiencing who knows how many slaughters, even Ye Guchen felt a kind of exhaustion.

Such a trial was clearly not without cost.

It would greatly consume his mental will.

If it were anyone else, it would be impossible to persist for so long.

In the end, Ye Guchen seemed to have arrived at an extremely empty and dark space.

In his line of sight.

Jian Chen, who had already become famous in the Vastness and was titled the Human Sword Ancestor.

Was sitting cross-legged in this empty and dark space.

"Who is the next opponent?"

Ye Guchen saw this and also knitted his brows.

Although he was extremely exhausted from the journey.

But no matter who the opponent was, he had ultimately defeated them.

And right now, what kind of opponent would Jian Chen face?

Under Ye Guchen's gaze.

Jian Chen sat cross-legged in this space.

The current Jian Chen had already become the Sword Ancestor famous in the Vastness.

He wore a green shirt, his figure hazy, as if endless sword Qi surrounded his body.

The whole person appeared extremely transcendent, like a green-shirted sword immortal about to ascend.

However, the opponent Ye Guchen imagined did not appear.

Because that sitting Jian Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

Although his figure seemed to be floating in endless sword Qi mist.

But those eyes seemed to span the ancient and modern, seeing through the void and reality.

They landed directly on Ye Guchen.

"How many years has it been? It's rare to encounter a sword cultivator I appreciate so much."

Jian Chen spoke, his voice high and distant, as if ripples had arisen in the river of time, echoing throughout the entire empty and dark space.

"What..."

Ye Guchen saw this, and his heart was shaken!

Previously, he had been observing the memory fragments of the Human Sword Ancestor from the perspective of a third party.

When fighting was needed, he seemed to transform into the Human Sword Ancestor to compete with different opponents.

However, now.

The Human Sword Ancestor, who should have been in the memory fragments.

Actually looked directly at him.

This feeling was as if you were an audience member off-stage, watching a play.

And the person in the play, while acting, suddenly looked at you off-stage.

This appeared extremely eerie.

"Senior, you..." Ye Guchen was momentarily speechless.

The Human Sword Ancestor, Jian Chen, looked at Ye Guchen and said indifferently.

"I am merely a residual imprint."

"I have seen all the various trials you went through before."

"In the past, others have also experienced such trials."

"But in the end, you are the only one who has walked to this step."

"I have a reason why I must obtain the inheritance," Ye Guchen said.

"Because of the situation outside?" the Human Sword Ancestor said indifferently.

"Senior knows?" Ye Guchen raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Heh, what if I said that was also part of the trial?" the Human Sword Ancestor said in a ghostly tone.

Hearing this, Ye Guchen's gaze paused!

Could it be that the black-robed elder was also part of the trial?

"That little fellow outside, he comes from the Jun Clan, right?"

"And his sword technique reminds me of someone."

"It's a pity I haven't fought him yet," the Human Sword Ancestor said.

Ye Guchen's expression became stern.

He knew the Human Sword Ancestor was talking about the Sword God, Jun Wentian.

The two of them were indeed both hailed as the peak of sword Dao in the Vast Starry Sky.

Who was stronger and who was weaker had never been settled.

"Are you very close to him?" the Human Sword Ancestor asked.

"A close friend for life," Ye Guchen said.

He was naturally a person with the personality of a lone wolf, walking alone, almost without friends.

Jun Xiaoyao was his only close friend.

"Heh... although you want to resolve the siege, this Human Sword Embryo is not so easy to pull out," the Human Sword Ancestor said.

"May I ask Senior, what is the trial?" Ye Guchen's tone was firm.

"Very simple..."

The Human Sword Ancestor stood up and said indifferently.

"Defeat me."

Three words made the entire empty and dark space fall silent.

The Human Sword Ancestor, one of the ten great Tyrant Clans of the Vastness, the founder and summoner of the Sword Clan, one of the peaks of sword Dao in the Vast Starry Sky.

It could be said that even the strongest Sword Emperors of the current Sword Clan's various lineages.

Were only disciples sitting under the Human Sword Ancestor in the past.

And now, the Human Sword Ancestor said that the condition to pass the trial was to defeat him.

If it were anyone else hearing this, they would definitely think he was crazy.

In the Vast Starry Sky, let alone finding a sword cultivator who could defeat the Human Sword Ancestor.

Even sword cultivators who could fight the Human Sword Ancestor were few and far between.

Although the Human Sword Ancestor right now was merely a phantom imprint of power.

But it was definitely something other sword cultivators could only look up to.

However, Ye Guchen said decisively: "Good."

Seeing that he didn't even have a hint of hesitation.

The Human Sword Ancestor also had a flash of surprise.

The next moment, he flicked his finger.

The erupting sword Qi seemed to slash through time and space in an instant.

Puchi!

Almost in the blink of an eye, before Ye Guchen could even react.

His entire body exploded directly!

Of course, it exploded within this illusion.

However, a moment later.

The scattered fragments gathered again, becoming Ye Guchen.

Puchi...

Ye Guchen knelt on one knee on the ground, breathing deeply.

Even with his temperament as hard as iron.

Just now, it felt as if he had experienced a death.

Although he was currently in an illusion.

But the pain of his physical body being shattered and torn apart was no different from the real thing.

"You should leave," the Human Sword Ancestor said.

"Again," Ye Guchen stood up and said.

"What you are consuming is the power of your Primordial Spirit."

"If you repeatedly die and regenerate, your Primordial Spirit will suffer irreversible damage, or even annihilation."

"At that time, you will truly perish," the Human Sword Ancestor said.

Ye Guchen looked at the Human Sword Ancestor.

"I have experienced Senior's experiences, and I also understand how difficult it was for Senior along the way."

"Many times in the past, Senior walked on the edge of life and death."

"But in the end, you still stood at the peak of the Vast Sword Dao."

"And I, Ye Guchen, can also do it."

"I do not stand at any peak; beneath my feet is the peak of sword Dao!"
