Chapter 756: The End of the Canyon
"There are a total of 328 sword tombs in the Sword Domain. They are ranked in ascending order. With each promotion in rank, the rewards from the sword tombs become richer." Jian Chen explained to Jiang Chen.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes brightened a lot.
Didn’t he come to the Sword Domain just for the Sword Tomb?
The entrance to the sword tomb is set in a canyon.
At the end of the canyon, there is a stone monument.
The stone tablet is engraved with dense characters, emitting a hazy glow, making the canyon misty and dreamy.
"Come in."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and walked to the entrance of the canyon.
As soon as he stepped into the canyon, he felt a heavy sense of oppression, as if he was carrying a huge burden, making it difficult for him to move forward.
"The sword tomb tests your martial arts will and sword intent. If you persist, your sword attainments will reach a higher level." Jian Chen said.
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded, spread his legs, and walked forward with difficulty.
"call."
Jiang Chen exhaled a breath of foul air, and his eyes flashed with a biting coldness.
There was a chilly wind blowing in the canyon, making his clothes rustle, and his pores expanded and sweat broke out.
The sword energy in the canyon became stronger and stronger, and the air was filled with a murderous atmosphere.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen stopped.
In front of him, there was a sarcophagus.
There is a pattern carved on the sarcophagus, which is so lifelike that it seems to be alive.
"That is..."
Jiang Chen saw clearly what was carved on the pattern and couldn't help but be surprised.
It was in the shape of a sword, nine feet long, jet black all over, with a snow-white blade that shone with a cold light and exuded a sharp sword intent.
“This should be a weapon.”
Jiang Chen thought to himself that he could tell that the sword was not simple and was definitely not an ordinary sword.
"This sword should have a story."
Jiang Chen guessed as he walked to the sarcophagus.
"Sword cultivator, do you need any help?"
At this time , he heard an old voice.
Jiang Chen was startled and looked around, but saw no one.
Immediately, a terrible thought occurred to him: Is there someone spying here?
"Since you know that I am a swordsman, why do you still ask me if I need help?" Jiang Chen retorted.
"Young man, this is a sword tomb. Once you enter it, it means you have become a sword cultivator. We, the guardians, have the obligation to ensure your safety."
The old voice sounded again.
"It's not your responsibility to protect me." Jiang Chen shook his head and said.
"Haha, little guy."
The old voice laughed and said, "The sword spirit in the sword tomb has not awakened for tens of thousands of years, or it has fallen. You might as well try to wake him up."
The sword spirit in the sword tomb ?
Jiang Chen frowned slightly. He remembered that the sword tomb was an independent world.
How did the sword spirit come into being?
"No, this sword tomb was created by the Sword Master, and a new sword spirit must have been born in it."
Soon, he realized that there was indeed a sword spirit in this sword tomb.
"If you want, you can try to wake me up." said the sword spirit.
"All right."
Jiang Chen shrugged, reached out to the sword tomb, circulated the sword energy in his body, and injected it into the sword tomb.
Buzz buzz buzz…
In an instant, the sword tomb trembled violently, and a black gas emerged.
"Sword Domain, Sword Soul?"
Jiang Chen was stunned when he saw this scene.
The sword energy of the sword tomb is all formed by the sword spirits.
"Who are you? Why are you breaking in here?"
A cold shout was heard from the sword tomb, filled with murderous intent.
"My name is Jiang Chen. I came here to pick out a sword that suits me. I won't disturb you for too long." Jiang Chen said calmly.
"Humph, the sword tomb was left by the Sword Master. How can you choose it at will? Leave quickly."
Sword Spirit said coldly, his voice carrying a warning and a haughty tone.
Jiang Chen ignored him and scanned the sword tomb, finally locking onto a pitch-black iron sword deep in the sword tomb.
A blood-red gem was inlaid on the hilt of the iron sword.
"Are you a sword spirit?"
Jiang Chen asked.
He felt the familiar sword energy fluctuations from the iron sword.
This is a sword!
"That's right."
Sword Soul admitted it and said, "Do you know where this place is?"
Jiang Chen did not answer.
"The Sword Tomb is a holy place for sword cultivators. Countless corpses of sword cultivators are buried here. You are not worthy to enter here." said the Sword Soul.
"Really?"
Jiang Chen said indifferently: "I want to see how powerful the swords in the sword tomb are."
He walked forward and punched out.
Bang bang bang.
Jiang Chen's fist power landed on the iron sword, but could not shake it at all.
"What kind of sword is this?" Jiang Chen asked in surprise.
"Demon-slaying sword." said the sword spirit.
Jiang Chen was startled for a moment, then showed an excited expression and asked, "Can you control this sword?"
A picture emerged in his mind. It was outside the Sword Pavilion, and he was being chased by the sword spirit.
At that time, the sword spirit activated the Demon-Slaying Sword and shattered the void with one sword.
All the swords in the sword domain are condensed from the sword energy of this sword.
"I can help you stimulate the sword energy." said the Sword Spirit.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could control the sword energy, he didn't need to worry about anything else.
Then he took out the bronze key.
"I was originally planning to come in after I mastered the secrets of the Sword Domain, but I didn't expect to meet you first."
The voice of the sword spirit came again.
"Sword Domain Secret?"
Jiang Chen was surprised. He didn't expect that this sword had a secret.
"Yes, you have the talent of a sword immortal, and it is only a matter of time before you comprehend the secrets of the sword realm." said the Sword Soul.
Jiang Chen's mouth corners raised, this is his advantage.
"Have you forgotten who I am?"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen changed the subject.
His master, Jian Kuang, was once the lord of the Sword Domain.
The Sword Soul fell silent for a while before speaking: "The Sword Domain Secret is not only for the Sword Domain to perform. Your physique happens to be compatible with the Sword Domain."
"You mean, my physique is stronger than Jian Yu's?" Jiang Chen asked in surprise.
He has no right to be proud.
"That's right, that's why you can enter the Sword Tomb." There was admiration in the Sword Spirit's voice.
"I see."
Jiang Chen suddenly realized, and said solemnly: "Sword Master asked me to come to Sword Domain, I am afraid he wants to train my swordsmanship, and even wants to train me to be his successor!"
Thinking of this, he didn't dare to waste time and immediately sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Buzz~
The aura on Jiang Chen's body suddenly burst out and turned into a sharp sword, piercing straight into the sky.
call out!
A ray of sword energy broke through the air, shuttled through the void, and made a sharp whistling sound.
"It really can induce sword energy!"
Jiang Chen was delighted. The stronger the sword energy, the more powerful it would be.
Not only that, he also discovered that when the sword energy reached its peak, it could actually fly out of the body and attack the enemy.
But he didn't dare to be careless, because in the sword tomb, he couldn't even fly in the air, let alone fly with a sword.
"If you want to learn swordsmanship, you have to take me as your master, otherwise, you will never be able to inherit the sword domain."
After saying this, Sword Soul fell into silence and did not continue.
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes. He felt that the sword was very intelligent, not inferior to humans.
"Don't worry, I mean no harm to you."
