Chapter 512: Chapter 376: The Resurrection of the Floating Corpse_1
The spectacle of the past reappeared in grandeur, like thundering chariot wheels, but it did not last long. Soon, all sights vanished like smoke in the wind.
In their place, as far as the eye could see, were towering cliffs everywhere. They were as sharp as trident daggers, abruptly rising countless fathoms into the sky. They were imbued with an overwhelming sense of foreboding, like stone spikes strewn across the solitary island, creating an oppressive atmosphere.
This was the result of cumulative Sword Qi left behind from the past. It crisscrossed fiercely, whittling down the once robust mountains. Even after countless ages, it had not diminished in the slightest, retaining its unstoppable momentum just like the old days.
Without the safety passage of the Dam Key, even the presence of Sect Leader Level entities could be easily slain by the Sword Qi floating in the air. Even a Supreme being would bleed profusely if they were not careful.
After all, this was the lingering effect of an Immortal King Level entity that had resided here for an unknown length of time. Although no actual legacy remained, the vague imprint of its sword once left in the void transformed this place into a Forbidden Area where ordinary beings could not tread, lest they be instantly perforated.
Feeling the gusts of sea breeze coming from inside, the people from Liu Village did not linger for long, quickly casting their gaze on the towering mountains around them.
The re-emergence of the past was undoubtedly shocking, but they didn’t find it too sensational.
In comparison, they felt their senses were more shocked by their own Lord Willow God. There were no words to describe it, not even the universe could contain it. Thousands of willow leaves shone with a hazy glow, mysterious and solemn, as if imprisoning countless terrifying deities. The swing of a willow branch could destroy the cycle of reincarnation. How could a mere sword wielder compare?
Jiang Hui was unaware of what his disciples were thinking. After landing on the island, he allowed them to explore by themselves.
Having surveyed the place in advance, he assured them the solitary island held no other dangers besides the Sword Qi scattered in the void. With the safety passage for protection, they should face no obstacles.
Like a horde of locusts, the group swarmed out, all vowing to outdo each other, lest they fall behind. Promising looks filled their faces.
They knew that this place had once been home to a unimaginably powerful individual. Even if a trivial object accidentally fell from this person’s possession, it would be enough for them to live comfortably, making this trip worthwhile.
“Look at these little rascals!” Jiang Hui couldn’t help but smile.
Although individuals like Tu Wa Zi and Gu Chen were adults, in his eyes, they still resembled the troublesome kids of their past.
…
The solitary island was not very large. Floating above The Boundary Sea, it was effortless for everyone to cover the entire island with their current strength,
Soon, everyone made a discovery.
They stumbled upon a cave near the edge of the island. It was deep and impenetrable, the entrance filled with scattered Rune Power radiating waves of dazzling light akin to countless twinkling stars.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Perhaps due to the passage of time, the Formation at the entrance had lost its effect and now merely served as decoration.
Upon crossing the narrow rock corridor at the entrance, the view suddenly opened up before them.
The internal view of the cave was completely different from what they had imagined. It was much simpler, fairly small – just a few hundred square feet, enough to clearly see everything at a glance.
In the middle there was a stone table accompanied by a few stone stools randomly scattered around.
To the left, there was a bed, like jade agate, presumably used by the Sword Immortal for cultivation.
There was a set of translucent treasures on the stone table, five in total, all subdued in light. Although it was not clear which race they came from, having the privilege to be placed here meant they couldn’t be ordinary.
Besides that, there was a golden paper.
It was like a sword thrust into the stone wall, enveloped by the phantom of Divine Sword. Even from a distance, everyone could feel an overwhelming sense of sharpness. Any further and they feared their flesh and blood would be torn apart.
Everyone was instantly aware, the golden paper was no ordinary object; otherwise, it wouldn’t be so extraordinary.
Especially individuals like Tu Wa Zi, Gu Chen and Lin Hai, their faces were almost brimming over with excitement.
They had encountered this object before in the Supreme Secret Realm of the Five Elements Continent and had snatched it from everyone with that child who loved beast milk from Stone Village. The paper recorded one of the ten evils, the Thunder Emperor’s Secret Art. Once mastered, it would summon Heaven’s Punishment.
Given the previous experience, they understood the rarity of this golden paper most. It was a blessing in disguise to chance upon it today.
Without a doubt, everyone decided to take it.
“Watch this!”
Tu Wa Zi stepped forward from the crowd, taking out the Beast Skin Bag that he had grabbed from the Little White Tiger.
Although it was only an imitation of the Qiankun Bag, the Beast Skin Bag was also extraordinary. It was made from the chest fur of the Void Beast King, with an enormous space inside, forming a Void Fissure that could even accommodate a star. To say nothing of some loose trinkets.
Without a pause, Tu Wa Zi swept up not only the golden paper and those treasures, but also everything else in the cave.
