Chapter 193: Chapter 167: Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb



In the Southern Region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, there lies the Fifth-Rank Great Sect of the Moon Concealing Sect.

The Moon Concealing Sect was not only famous for being one of the three greatest Fifth-Rank sects in the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, but even more so for only accepting female disciples!

The fact that the Moon Concealing Sect only accepted female disciples, places it just one late-stage Rotating Pill Realm expert short of the Cloud Sky Sect. Yet, in all other aspects—whether in terms of the strength of mid-stage or early-stage Rotating Pill Realm experts or Spirit Sea Realm experts—the Moon Concealing Sect is on par with the "Cloud Sky Sect" and the "Flame Sect"!

In a quiet valley of the Moon Concealing Sect, a beautiful little girl of about seven or eight years old, resembling a porcelain doll, was sitting cross-legged, cultivating. Despite her young age, her little face was filled with seriousness as she practiced. Around her neck hung a small string of bells that tinkled from time to time as the wind blew.

Not far from the little girl, a woman in palace attire was seated, watching the young child cultivate with affection.

Suddenly, a woman wearing Five-Colored Cloud Clothes flew into the valley.

The woman in the Five-Colored Cloud Clothes was none other than the strongest of the Fifth-Rank Great Sect of the Moon Concealing Sect, "Fairy Ni Xia," with cultivation reaching the late stages of the Rotating Pill Realm!

After Fairy Ni Xia flew into the valley, she landed next to the woman in palace attire and smiled as she looked towards the little girl who was cultivating, "Junior sister, Little Dingdang is now much more serious about her cultivation than when she first arrived at the sect."

The woman in palace attire lifted her head and looked at Fairy Ni Xia, "Senior sister, did you come here this time because of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb?"

"Junior sister, the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb can only be entered by those in the Spirit Sea Realm. You didn't successfully break through to the Rotating Pill Realm years ago, and thus remained in the Half-Step Rotating Pill stage. However, over the years, your external cultivation has made great progress. In the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom, no Half-Step Rotating Pill could be your match."

"With such strength, it would be a pity to miss out on the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb. Even if not for me, you should consider Little Dingdang!"

"I promise you, any benefits you obtain in the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, other than those that can help me reach the Heavenly Saint Realm, I will not touch a single bit of it. Everything else will be left for Little Dingdang..."

As Fairy Ni Xia spoke, the woman in palace attire raised her hand to stop her words and gently smiled, "It's alright, senior sister, I have already made up my mind over these days."

"Since senior sister insists, I shall take a trip to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!"

As the woman in palace attire spoke, her eyes also shone with unwavering confidence, "Little Dingdang, just wait for your aunt to bring back the treasures of the Heavenly Saint for you, to aid in your cultivation!"

The Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb that only those in Spirit Sea Realm could enter? She, Nishang, had already reached the late stages of the Spirit Sea Realm over three hundred years ago!

Although her attempt to break through to the Rotating Pill Realm failed, leaving her no hope of advancement, how could she miss an opportunity to help her beloved Little Dingdang gain good fortune?

...

The three great Fifth-Rank sects were all searching for their most valued person, preparing to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb.

The Six-Rank Sects of the same rank as Ye Chen's Taixuan Sect in other regions, such as Peach Blossom Valley of the Southern Region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom and the Defying Beast Sect of the Northern Region, were also making preparations.

There were also forty-three Seventh-Rank sects. Although each sect was allocated only three spots to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, they would not miss such an opportunity. The disciples they selected were all beyond the late stages of the Spirit Sea Realm!

Even the Loose Cultivator, Daoist Wine Sword, who was seeking thirty people to enter the tomb, had found candidates stronger than one could imagine.

These Loose Cultivators, many of whom were Half-Step Rotating Pill experts that had left Great Sects after failing to advance, as well as individual talents used to cultivating alone, possessed abilities and combat experiences even more fearsome than those of the sect disciples!

When the one-month period for gathering the adventurers destined for the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb came to an end, all eligible parties had found their final candidates.

The three great Fifth-Rank Sects, the Loose Cultivator Daoist Wine Sword, each would send thirty people into the tomb!

The ten Six-Rank Sects, each would send ten people into the tomb!

The forty-three Seventh-Rank Sects, each would send three people into the tomb!

By the end of the final day, all three hundred forty-nine people scheduled to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb had been fully assembled!

"Depart!"

"Head to the 'Demon Burial Abyss's Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb', to seize the treasures of the Heavenly Saints!"

On the plaza in front of the Cloud Sky Sect of the Fifth-Rank Great Sect, beings like Yunyang and Daoist Yun Fang, other Rotating Pill Realm experts, were leading the way. The thirty Cloud Sky Sect disciples, selected to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, were following behind.

Additionally, countless other disciples, who yearned to see the Demon Burial Abyss themselves, transformed into trails of flight light, speeding towards the Demon Burial Abyss.

"Depart!"

"Depart!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Countless figures from the Fifth-Rank Great Sects, the "Flame Sect" and "Moon Concealing Sect," also left their sects and flew towards the Demon Burial Abyss.

Eventually, from across the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom territory, light trails of various Great Sects were all headed towards the Demon Burial Abyss!

Above the Taixuan Sect, within the Eight Great Inner Peaks.

As the day to head to the "Demon Burial Abyss's Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb" finally arrived, the Taixuan Sect too was a gathering of power and purpose.

Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, Xue Jia, and even the seldom seen number one on the Taixuan Sect Spirit Ranking, Jin Lieyang, made an appearance above the Eight Great Inner Peaks.

Jin Lieyang appeared as a young man in a golden Daoist robe, but Ye Chen had heard from Fairy Jia Luo that Jin Lieyang had stepped into the Half-Step Rotating Pill Realm over seventy years ago and his actual age had long since surpassed a century!

Ye Chen had heard that Jin Lieyang had even cultivated a set of high-grade martial arts techniques of the Earth tier, which was extraordinarily powerful!

When Jin Lieyang arrived above the eight inner peaks, and as Ye Chen took notice of him, he also looked specifically towards Ye Chen.

Jin Lieyang knew that Ye Chen was highly valued by Fairy Jia Luo and the various peak masters, and even his own peak master had specially mentioned Ye Chen's name to him!

"Ye Chen."

Just as everyone was preparing to set off for the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, suddenly a figure flew towards the sky.

"Sister Yu."

Ye Chen looked towards the figure and saw that it was Sister Yu who had taught him the Sword Formation technique; although Sister Yu had said she had no intention of going to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, he didn't know why she had also come over today.

Sister Yu flew to Ye Chen's side, and looking at him with a light smile, she said, "Ye Chen, this trip to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb might last a long time. I have four Sword Formations here that you haven't cultivated yet!"

"Take them with you, and if you have spare time in the tomb, continue to cultivate the Sword Formations! Once you come out of the tomb, I will see if your Sword Formation cultivation has improved!"

Four Sword Formations?

Ye Chen took the small box that Sister Yu handed to him and opened it.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Inside the box, numerous Sword Intent Law Beads lightly chimed.

Ye Chen looked at the names of the four Sword Formations listed inside the small box and saw that they were: the intermediate Sword Formation "Heavenly Gang Sword Formation," the intermediate Sword Formation "Minor Thousand Sword Formation," the advanced Sword Formation "Sword Fusion Divine Ability," and the advanced Sword Formation "Ten Thousand Swords Divine Ability"!

The four Sword Formations Ye Chen currently mastered were all just lower-tier ones; this time, Sister Yu had even given him the Sword Intent Law Beads for intermediate and advanced Sword Formations!

With these Sword Formation Law Beads, Ye Chen would be able to resume his Sword Formation cultivation once he entered the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!

"Thank you, Sister Yu!"

Ye Chen put away the Sword Formations and smiled as he thanked Sister Yu.

When everyone ready to head to the Demon Burial Abyss was assembled, Fairy Jia Luo gave the order, "Let's go!"

Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, and all the rest turned into startling glimmers of escaping light, flying towards the Demon Burial Abyss!

"Who knows what kind of gains Ye Chen and the others will come across this time?"

Sister Yu, watching the fading streaks of light, stood in the sky and murmured to herself.

...

On the day of the exploration of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, the area outside the Demon Burial Abyss had already gathered countless people.

Even sects that weren't qualified to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb had countless cultivators come to this place.

They certainly wouldn't miss this major event of exploring the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb; even if they couldn't gain any benefit, they were more than satisfied just to watch the excitement!

Among the crowd, even the sect leader and elders of the Qingyun Sect, the eighth-rank sect Ye Chen had belonged to, were there.

Amidst the numerous onlookers, people kept flying in.

The entire area outside the Demon Burial Abyss was bustling with activity!

Outside the Demon Burial Abyss, it was a bustling scene.

But what no one knew was that, hidden deep within the caverns of the Demon Burial Abyss, in a dark giant coffin within the most inner part of this mystical tomb space, there was a vast swamp that continuously churned with giant black bubbles.

In the center of the swamp lay a bronze giant coffin larger than a small hill, bound tightly by eight huge chains, each chain extending in eight different directions.

Each of the eight massive chains locking the bronze giant coffin was over a kilometer long and several meters thick, and the chains were carved with innumerable Ancient Rune Talismans.

The most distinctive feature was the bronze giant coffin itself, locked by the eight massive chains.

The entire bronze coffin, over eight hundred meters in length and three hundred meters in width, had the exterior engraved with eight terrifying demon figures with green faces and fangs.

If someone familiar with the ten great Demon Sects of the Western Desolation saw these eight demon figures, they would realize that these demons were the supreme totems of the Defying Demon Sect among the ten great Demon Sects, the Eight Great Demon Towers!

The totems of the Demon Sects, unexpectedly appearing on this giant coffin and even within this Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!

Together with the eight chains full of Ancient Rune Talismans and the swamp rolling with giant black bubbles.

The entire ancient tomb exuded an eerie aura from every corner!
