Heaven Sword Peak.
Hundred-Zhang Sword Ladder.
When Jiang Li arrived, he saw a stairway of the sword formed from over a thousand flying swords stained with blood.
The killing aura was astonishing.
Merely standing at the outermost edge, before he had truly stepped onto it, he could clearly sense the brutality of an ancient battlefield—broken swords, shattered swords, bloodstained swords, and even swords with only half a hilt remaining.

There's another prerequisite: your realm in the Way of the Sword must reach the Third Realm, Sword Form Like Rainbow. Otherwise, without sufficient foundation in the Way of the Sword, even if you have a three-inch tongue that can outtalk the dead, you won't be able to convince them."
"You can try first. If it doesn't work, I'll pull you down at any time."
