Seven Stars Sword Sect Inside the mountain gate, the scene is completely different from the desolation outside.
The long steps paved with sapphire wind upwards, with ancient pines on both sides pointing to the sky like swords, and the pine needles are so green that they seem to still be alive.
At the end of the long steps, a majestic main hall stands in the mist, with eaves like wings, and the faint echo of the sound of swords.
However, the Ye Xuan trio had just stepped through the Shanmen Archway.
Buzz!
Seven rays of sword light suddenly burst out from the shadows of the pine trees on both sides of the long steps!
That's not Sword Qi, but seven figures!
Seven Sword Cultivator puppets with vague faces wearing seven-star sword robes, holding standard long swords, surrounded the three people in the shape of Big Dipper formation.
There is no life in these sword puppets, but the coercion they exude has reached the late stage of Earth Master!
What's even more astonishing is that the seven puppets' auras are connected, and a Seven Stars Sword Array Diagram covering thousands of feet automatically appears on the ground beneath their feet!
In the formation diagram, the stars are shining brightly, and each star position echoes a sword puppet. The combat power of the seven is superimposed layer by layer, and it has faintly touched the threshold of the Earth Master's peak!
"Seven Stars Demon Slaying Sword Array, start!"
The first sword puppet made a mechanical sound from its mouth, and seven swords were raised at the same time!
In an instant, seven Sword Qis of different colors soared into the sky!
Crimson Flame, Xuanbing, Gengjin, Qingmu, Yellow Earth, Startling Thunder, Swift Wind - the seven-color Sword Qi belong to different attributes, but they are perfectly integrated under the connection of the array diagram, turning into a chaos-colored wave of destructive swords, crashing down towards the three of Ye Xuan!
Wherever the sword tide passed, layers of void shattered, and even the light was swallowed up!
"Good sword array!"
Ye Xuan's eyes flashed.
The mystery and power of this Seven Stars Sword Array is indeed better than the Nirvana Sword Array he had before!
If it weren't for the fact that the person setting up the formation was just a puppet with limited intelligence, with this formation operating at full power, even the early Tianzun might have to avoid the edge for a while!
But he doesn't retreat.
Turning over the right hand, Dragon Thunder Lightning Sword is already in the palm of the hand.
The sword body is silver-white, with gold patterns coiled like a dragon, and thunder arcs leaping above the sword's edge.
"Heaven Slaying Sword Drawing Technique!"
Ye Xuan takes one step forward, pointing his sword at the sky:
"Second Style: Breaking the Army!"
Nothing fancy, nothing pretentious.
Only an extremely pure gray-white sword light burst out from the tip of the sword!
In the sword light, seven big stars can be vaguely seen floating around. They are actually Big Dipper simulated by Ye Xuan with sword intent!
Star by star!
The gray-white sword light collided with the chaos sword tide!
Boom!!
The entire Shanmen Square shook violently, the long sapphire steps were cracked, and the ancient pines on both sides were broken at waist level!
The stalemate lasted only three breaths.
The next moment!
Click!
A fine crack appeared on the surface of the chaotic sword tide.
Immediately afterwards, the cracks spread like a spider web, covering the entire sword tide in the blink of an eye!
Bang!
The sword tide collapsed and turned into spiritual light that filled the sky and dissipated!
Seven Stars Sword Array, broken!
"Now!"
Chu Wan'er and Xu Linglong took action almost at the same time.
The former raised his bare hands lightly, and Longevity Emperor's Blood turned into thousands of green vines, wrapping around two of the sword puppets; the latter connected his jade fingers, and the power of space turned into an invisible cage, imprisoning the other two sword puppets!
Four of the seven puppets were missing, and the sword array collapsed immediately!
Although the remaining three sword puppets still have the late-stage combat power of the Earth Master, they are no longer in power.
Ye Xuan sword light rises again, suppressing all three puppets!
The battle lasted from start to finish in just ten breaths.
The seven late-stage sword puppets of the Earth Lord have all prostrated themselves on the ground, their soul fire dimming in their eyes, and they are no longer able to resist.
"The ancient sword puppet's refining techniques are indeed exquisite."
Ye Xuan walked up to a sword puppet, Divine Sense penetrated its core, easily erasing the remaining Divine Soul imprint, and stamped it with his own mark.
In just a moment, the seven sword puppets moved their arms and fingers, standing quietly behind them, like the seven most loyal guards.
"That's good." Xu Linglong chuckled, "Seven late-stage Earth Lord thugs were added out of thin air."
"Let's go."
Ye Xuan put away his sword and looked deep into the main hall.
The three of them continued to go deeper.
The Seven Stars Sword Sect ruins cover a very large area, including the main hall, Chuan Gong Pavilion, Pill Hall, Qi Hall, Sword Mound, etc.
But what is regrettable is that except for the seven sword puppets at the mountain gate, there are almost no complete relics found elsewhere.
In the Pill Hall, the jade bottle was shattered and the elixir had long since turned into dust;
In the Palace of Instruments, the sword stand collapsed and the magic weapon's spirituality was lost;
In the Chuan Gong Pavilion, the classic book Jade Slip shattered when touched, leaving only dust and dust.
Even the ancient sects will eventually be unable to withstand the erosion of time.
"It seems that the catastrophe Seven Stars Sword Sect experienced back then was far more tragic than imagined." Chu Wan'er sighed.
Xu Linglong suddenly stopped and his nose twitched slightly. "There is a medicinal scent... it's very faint, but it's definitely there."
The three of them looked at each other and followed the scent of the medicine to the back mountain of Jianzong.
An ancient stone door with a height of a hundred feet blocked the way. The door was engraved with complex prohibitions Formation Pattern. Although it had gone through eternity, it still shed a faint starlight.
"The last level of ban is imposed."
Ye Xuan Thunder Eyes swept through, quickly found the formation's eye, and broke it with a sword.
The stone door slowly opened.
In an instant, the rich herbal aroma and extremely pure spiritual energy surged out like a torrent!
Behind the door is a complete medicinal garden with an area of thousands of feet!
The ancient medicines in the garden are lush and lush. Although many of them have died, those that survive are all rare treasures that are difficult to find in the outside world!
"Nine-Orifice Exquisite Ginseng", "Star Tempering Bone Flower" of Earth Venerable level!
In the center of the medicine garden, seven springs are arranged in the shape of a Big Dipper. The springs are as crystal clear as jade, and milky white spiritual liquid is gurgling out.
The spiritual liquid turns into mist when it hits the ground, nourishing the entire medicinal garden.
"This is...Seven Stars Spirit Spring!" Xu Linglong's beautiful eyes widened, "It is said that one drop of the spiritual spring of heaven and earth condensed from the source of stars is enough for Xuan Zun to break through the bottleneck! No wonder this medicine garden can survive to this day!"
Chu Wan'er also showed joy. "Although the spring has weakened, the spiritual liquid in it is enough for the three of us to cultivate to the peak of Earth Master."
"Huh?"
Xu Linglong suddenly let out a soft cry and walked quickly towards the deepest spring.
Ye Xuan and Chu Wan'er follow closely behind.
Next to the spring, I saw a withered skeleton wearing a seven-star sword robe sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Dry Bones' left hand held a rusty long sword, and his right hand rested on a three-foot-tall ice-blue young bamboo in front of his knees.
Behind him, an ancient black stele about ten feet high stood quietly, with dragon patterns faintly visible on the stele's surface.
"Divine Martial Emperor Stele!"
"Emperor Rhyme Ice Heart Bamboo!"
Ye Xuan pupils shrink.
The former is his biggest goal during this trip, and the latter is the Emperor Yun Precious Medicine that can make any imperial clan crazy!
It takes Emperor Blood to water this bamboo for ten thousand years to get one. The essence of the imperial path contained in the heart of the bamboo is enough to cause a qualitative change in the bloodline of the descendants of the imperial clan!
But at this moment!
Ye Xuan's face changed suddenly, and he suddenly raised his hand and pushed Chu Wan'er and Xu Linglong into Small Tower Space!
Buzz!
The withered bones suddenly moved.
In the empty eye sockets, two points of ice-blue soul fire suddenly ignited!
A sword intent that was a hundred times more terrifying than the Seven Puppetes of the Mountain Gate erupted like a sleeping beast awakening!
Half-step Heavenly Venerable!
No... it's Sword Cultivator from Half-step Heavenly Venerable!
"Junior!"
The bone mandible opened and closed, making a hoarse sound like the friction of gold and stone:
"If you want to get a chance, you need to pass my test."
"Are you ready?"
Before he finished speaking, the rusty sword in Withered Bones' hand trembled slightly.
The next moment, a ten-foot-long Sword Qi that was purely condensed by the sword intent of the stars tore through the void and chopped off Ye Xuan's head!
This sword is simple and unpretentious.
But it's so fast that it surpasses time, and it's so strong that it crushes space!
Ye Xuan's hair is on end, I don't dare to have any reservations anymore!
"Heaven Slaying Sword Drawing Technique!"
He held the sword with both hands, and the seven imperial thunders in Sea of Qi burned at the same time as the silver-purple thunder arc!
The gray-white sword light rose again, and this time, a figure of an emperor standing tall and tall appeared in the sword light!
Two swords confronting each other.
Starlight illuminates the entire medicinal garden.
Stalemate, three breaths.
Click!
Ye Xuan slashed the gray-white sword light, with cracks appearing on the surface.
The next moment, the sword light shattered!
Star Sword Qi's power remained undiminished, and it hit Ye Xuan's chest hard!
Poof!
Ye Xuan flew out like a kite with a broken string, collapsing three rockeries and staining his white clothes red with blood.
The moment he landed, he knelt on one knee, propped himself up with his sword, and coughed out a mouthful of blood again.
He raised his head and looked at the withered bones standing up slowly.
The fighting spirit in his eyes was like fire.
Since returning to Outer Heavens, this is the first time he has been defeated!
