Looking at the rows of tombstones in front of him, Cheng Ling sighed in his heart. The owners of these tombstones must have been leaders in swordsmanship during their lifetimes. Unexpectedly, they would all be buried here. Only the pale words on the inscriptions record their names.
He also discovered that behind the tombstone, there was a light spot that kept wandering around the tombstone, as if it was alive. There was one next to every tombstone. In front of the tombstone, there are swords inserted, which should be the swords owned by the owner during his lifetime.
The swords had different shapes, some were long and narrow, some were wide and thick, some were extremely sharp, and some had almost no edge. The quality of the swords is also different. Under the Sword Master, they are basically all top-grade swords. Among the Sword Kings, there are several top-grade swords that exude sharp light.
Cheng Ling took a step forward and was about to choose a sword to watch when Liu Qingyan's anxious voice came from the sound transmission token: "Cheng Ling, how are you? Is the situation over there very dangerous? Answer quickly! "
He patted his forehead, and a wave of warmth surged in his heart, and he quickly replied: "Uncle Liu, it's nothing serious, you all can come in!"
The person on the token side was obviously relieved, and Liu Qingyan replied: "Okay, then you wait, we are all here."
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Liu Qingyan led everyone to the tomb.
Everyone looked around, and Jian Yinghao asked: "Brother Cheng, what is the situation here?"
Cheng Ling said: "This should be the tomb of the ancient sword cultivator. They are buried here. You can see that there is a name on each tombstone. It should be the name of his lifetime."
"There are so many, almost thousands of them. Do you see any clues?"
"I think among these tombstones, there should be the inheritance of these sword cultivators, but I don't know how to get them. Did you see the luminous object? There are also swords inserted in the front. There are many top-quality swords. I can't tell. This time it’s prosperous!”
"Don't get too fancy! Those swords are not so easy to get." Liu Qingyan saw the two people's eyes shining and struck mercilessly.
The two of them were startled and looked at her in surprise. Cheng Ling asked, "Uncle Liu, how do you say this?"
"Do you remember that I told you that hundreds of years ago, I explored the tomb of an ancient monk?"
"I know, but what does that have to do with this place?"
"If my guess is correct, there is a separate space under these tombstones, which contains the inheritance of these sword cultivators during their lifetimes. But these inheritances are not so easy to accept. The light spots next to the tombstones are the rays of light they left behind during their lifetimes. Only after passing the test can one enter."
"Test? How to proceed?"
"It's very simple. As long as you put your spiritual consciousness into the light spot, you can accept the test. But you should be careful. Before entering, it is best to use your spiritual consciousness to sense it. If it is not a suitable test, it is best not to choose it."
"Why?"
"For those inheritances that are not suitable, even if you accept them, it will be in vain. Moreover, the owner of the tomb has a bad attitude towards the inheritance that is not suitable. The difficulty of the test will be doubled. If you are wiped out, it will not be unfair."
The two of them were dumbfounded. This was too perverted. The test would be wiped out. How powerful were these ancient sword cultivators? How powerful could they be with just a wisp of spiritual consciousness?
Jian Yinghao was suspicious and asked: "Senior, those ancient sword cultivators were certainly powerful when they were alive. Could it be that the remnants of their spiritual consciousness after death were also so powerful?"
Liu Qingyan explained: "You don't know something. According to the words engraved on these tombstones,
, I feel that these ancient sword cultivators were not much stronger than you when they were alive. At best, they were only at the level of distraction. "
"I have seen in the tombs of ancient monks before. In ancient times, the realm of sword cultivators was divided into sword masters, sword masters, sword kings, sword saints, etc. Sword masters, according to today's monastic realm, are basically divided into Under the Nascent Soul, the Sword Master is from the transformation stage to the distraction stage, and the Sword King is from the integration stage to the tribulation stage."
"As for the Sword Emperor, there is no doubt that he is at least in the Mahayana period. Therefore, among these tombstones, except for the Sword Emperor and the Sword King, all of them are capable of fighting if you meet them. The residual thoughts that can be passed on are different, and that requires you to The body of the soul enters the other party's residual thoughts."
"It's like entering someone else's control space. In their territory, you can only be tested passively, and you can't use your own strength at all."
Jian Yinghao clicked his tongue when he heard this and said: "My dear, this is not cost-effective. To accept the inheritance, you must first be thoroughly studied by the other party. This business is not cost-effective."
Liu Qingyan continued: "Actually, the benefits of this inheritance method are excellent. Once recognized by the person who inherits it, you can obtain all the other party's memories and practice skills, and reach a very high level in a short period of time."
"Unfortunately, the danger is also huge. If you encounter someone with a perverse temperament and other agendas, and I have to take away your body, then you will really suffer unspeakably."
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly in his heart and asked: "Uncle Liu, according to this, we'd better not accept the inheritance easily? So how can we obtain these swords?"
"It's better not to try inheritance easily. As for swords, maybe you can think of other ways."
"any solution?"
"Strong attack! What else do you want to do? Those swordsmen below the Sword Master can easily defeat them, but those above the Sword King have to think carefully. The swords contain the residual thoughts of the owner, and they can only be obtained by destroying the residual thoughts."
Everyone was stunned. Master Liu was indeed extremely tough, but Cheng Ling glanced at the swords and his face became even more bitter. Isn’t this nonsense? Swords below the Sword King level are easy to obtain, but what’s the use of taking them yourself? Not as good as a Pure Yuan Sword.
As for the Sword King and above, it is easy but difficult to defeat. It is like a mouse pulling a turtle, and there is nowhere to start. He sighed and said dejectedly: "It seems that these inheritances and swords in front of us have no connection with us. Anyway, there are gains and losses. Let's see what other mysterious places are outside this tomb!"
Everyone was silent, looking at these inheritances, but not daring to try easily, with a ball of anger in their hearts. Wu Chenlong shot around and found that there seemed to be a hole behind the Sword Emperor's tombstone, so he said: "Boss, look over there, there seems to be an exit!"
Cheng Ling swept his consciousness and found that it was the entrance of a cave. He did not go there immediately. The tomb seemed to be full of weirdness, so he had to be careful.
He turned to everyone and said: "Everyone spread out and search carefully to see if there are any other ways out. As for the tomb inheritance, it is best not to contact it. Do you understand?"
Everyone agreed and went to search separately.
Cheng Ling came to the entrance of the cave behind the Sword Emperor's tombstone. The cave was very deep and so dark that he couldn't see much. Even though his spiritual consciousness entered, he couldn't find any traces. He stood by the entrance and waited.
After more than half an hour, everyone turned around one by one and said that they had not found any other exits. Cheng Ling sighed secretly. It seemed that this cave entrance was the only exit.
He cautiously looked inside again, then turned to Jian Yinghao and Liu Qingyan and said, "Brother Jian, Uncle Liu, I will open the way now, and you guys will take care of me from behind."
The two nodded, and Cheng Ling walked in first.
Everyone followed him and filed in. Cheng Ling moved his hand, and meteor fire came to the palm of his hand, and the surrounding cave walls suddenly became clear. I saw that the edge of the cave wall was extremely smooth, as if it was coated with a layer of wax, making it slippery.
Moving along the cave, the ground gradually becomes drier, and the cave walls on both sides are no longer smooth and begin to become rough, and sometimes you can occasionally see some patterns. It's just that the patterns are very blurry, obviously they have fallen off a lot due to age.
I walked in for more than an hour, but the speed was not very fast. However, the cave gradually opened up. From the original height of one person, it gradually became taller and wider at the back, and finally formed a square passage with a radius of three feet.
There are many pendants decorated on both sides of the passage, and there is a tray on top of the pendant. Every ten feet, there is a luminous pearl placed on the tray, which illuminates the passage very brightly.
Cheng Ling put away the meteor fire and observed the scene around the passage. People gathered behind him. Jian Yinghao looked at it and said: "The passage here seems to be man-made. With so many decorations, could it be the location of some sect?"
Cheng Ling nodded and said, "It's possible, and Brother Jian, look, there are many patterns carved on the mountain walls on both sides. They are completely different from the current ones, but they are somewhat similar to those from ancient times. Could it be that this is an ancient sword cultivator?" The sect?”
"It's possible, but what's going on with those tombs? How could there be such a large area of tombs in front of the sect?"
"Maybe we all thought wrong and we were walking in the wrong direction. In other words, the tomb should be the back door of the sect."
Jian Yinghao was suddenly enlightened and said: "This makes sense. It turns out that we accidentally bumped into each other and entered through the back door, haha!"
Everyone finally understood and agreed with Cheng Ling's speculation.
Cheng Ling laughed and said: "If my guess is correct, then there is a greater opportunity in front of us. Think about it, there are so many inheritances in the tombs, and the inheritance in the sect is not More?"
When everyone heard this, their spirits were lifted, and their eyes glowed green. Wu Chenlong couldn't help but urge: "Boss, since there are so many benefits ahead, stop showing off and take us there as soon as possible!"
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Okay, let's move on and see what kind of opportunities lie ahead."
Everyone agreed with a bang, their morale improved a lot, and their confidence in Cheng Ling was even higher.
After all the talk, we have to get down to business. The passage here should be the passage leading to the tomb. There will be no danger. There is no need to be so cautious, just rush over.
He made up his mind and began to speed up, rushing towards the depths of the passage first. But without waiting for him to unfold his body skills, he just moved forward a few feet, and there were a few soft "click" sounds, and several holes suddenly appeared on both sides of the passage. In each hole, a sword was fired at him. Come.
Cheng Ling suddenly woke up: In my day, there is an agency. Isn't this just playing tricks on me? The passage was only three feet in diameter, and the swords on both sides were shooting at extremely fast speeds. They were about to strike Cheng Ling, and Xi Yan, Bai Yiyi, and Gu Youlan behind them all let out a cry of surprise.
Fortunately, Cheng Ling accelerated so suddenly that the people behind him were still some distance away from him. Those swords were only aimed at him, but had no effect on the people behind him.
But things happened so fast. By the time Cheng Ling reacted, the swords were already within a hair's breadth of him. Could he easily dodge them this time?
