Everyone Arrives, True Lord Taichu
At the foot of the statue is a huge stone platform.
On the stone platform lay a jade box and a yellowed ancient book.
Upon seeing this, Li Yunjing immediately strode to the stone platform, his gaze falling on the ancient book.
The cover of the ancient book bears four ancient seal characters: Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction.
"The Swordsmanship that swordsman practiced?" Li Yunjing's heart stirred.
The murals in the passageway had left a deep impression on Li Yunjing.
That swordsman's casual sword strike possessed immense power, which was astonishing.
If this "Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction" is the Swordsmanship practiced by that sword cultivator, Li Yunjing's gains on this trip will be immense.
He reached out and picked up the ancient book.
However, the moment his fingers touched the ancient book, a golden light shot out from it and went straight for his brow.
"Careful!"
Upon seeing this, Hei Feng exclaimed in alarm and tried to step forward to protect Li Yunjing.
"Stop, it's alright."
However, Li Yunjing waved his hand, signaling Hei Feng not to move.
At the same time, he allowed the Golden Light to shine into his brow.
Li Yunjing realized that the Golden Light posed no danger whatsoever.
This is a mark of inheritance, containing the complete contents of the Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction.
Li Yunjing closed his eyes and carefully processed this information.
A moment later, Li Yunjing opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing within them.
"What a magnificent Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction! Truly exquisite!" Li Yunjing exclaimed.
Although this Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction is not as domineering and fierce as the Seven Slaughters Heaven-Slaying Dao Sword Book he cultivated, it has the advantage of a solid foundation and endless variations.
The sword philosophy contained within it also greatly inspired Li Yunjing.
At this moment, Li Yunjing had already planned to merge the "Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction" with the "Seven Slaughters Heaven-Slaying Dao Sword Book" to create a new Swordsmanship.
If this sword Swordsmanship can be created, the Luozhen Sect's Swordsmanship lineage will have one more technique.
For the disciples of the Luozhen Sect, this adds another Swordsmanship to their selection.
Li Yunjing put the ancient book of the Primordial Beginning Sword Instruction into his storage ring.
He then opened the jade box on the stone platform.
Inside the jade box lay a blue Jade Slip lying quietly.
Li Yunjing picked up the Jade Slip and infused it with spiritual power.
A flood of information rushed into Li Yunjing's mind.
This Jade Slip is a record left by the owner of this cave abode, containing his life story and the details of the cave abode.
It turns out that this cultivator was named True Lord Taichu, and his cultivation had reached the Dao Union Perfection, only one step away from proving the Dao Void Refinement.
However, just as he was preparing to break through to the Void Refinement Realm, he was ambushed by the three Dao Lords of the Holy Domain.
Although the True Lord Taichu was powerful, he was ultimately outnumbered and severely injured, forcing him to retreat to his cave abode to heal.
Unfortunately, his injuries were too severe, and he ultimately did not survive.
Before his death, he left his legacy in the cave abode, hoping that a destined person would inherit his mantle and go to the Holy Domain to avenge him against the three Dao Lords.
The Jade Slip also records the layout of this cave abode.
Besides the main hall where they are now, there are several other areas, including a medicine room, an armory, a cultivation room, and a treasure room.
After reading this message, Li Yunjing let out a long sigh of relief.
"The three Dao Lords..."
In the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm, one must be at the Dao Union Perfection and have created a major sect that can influence the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm.
This means that to deal with the three Dao Lords, one must not only confront the three individuals themselves, but also the forces behind them.
Seeking revenge for the True Lord Taichu was nothing to Li Yunjing; he did it incidentally during the conquest of the Primordial Beginning Dao Realm.
However, it's definitely not the right time to rush into causing trouble for them.
Just then, Hei Feng suddenly let out a low roar and looked warily toward the entrance of the cave abode.
"What's wrong?" Li Yunjing asked.
"My lord, I sense the presence of my two brothers," the Hei Feng Devil Bear said in a deep voice. "It seems the emergence of the cave abode has caused quite a stir; the top experts of the Eastern Domain should have already arrived."
Li Yunjing raised an eyebrow slightly.
He had long anticipated that the emergence of this cave abode would attract the attention of major powers in the Eastern Domain, but the arrival of these powers came even faster than he had expected.
According to the information Hei Feng had given, there are a total of nine beings at the Dao Union level in the Eastern Domain, six of whom are Demon Beast and three are humans.
Hei Feng was one of them; he and two other Demon Beast were known as the Three Kings of the Eastern Domain.
The three Demon Beast had sworn brotherhood, so it was normal that Hei Feng could sense the presence of the other two Demon Beast immediately when they arrived.
"Looks like it's going to be quite lively here today."
Li Yunjing smiled faintly, showing no sign of nervousness.
Although those who came were all at the Dao Union Integration level, Li Yunjing was only at the Early Dao Union.
Furthermore, given Li Yunjing's background, his true combat strength is far more than just the Early Dao Union.
Li Yunjing has never used his full strength before. If he were to fight with his full strength, even Late Dao Union expert would probably be no match for him.
"My lord, those three from the Myriad Demon Hall are ruthless and bloodthirsty as demons. We must be careful of them," Hei Feng warned. "And those three human beings are no pushovers either."
Li Yunjing nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know. Let's go check out other places first, and we'll talk when they come in."
After saying that, Li Yunjing led Hei Feng towards a passage on the left side of the main hall, which led to the pill room.
Shortly after Li Yunjing and Hei Feng left the main hall, several whooshing sounds came from the entrance of the cave abode.
The first person to enter the cave abode was a middle-aged man dressed in a blue robe.
He had a handsome face and sharp eyes, and a long sword at his waist. He was none other than the Azure Scale King, one of the Three Kings of the Eastern Domain.
The Azure Scale King's true form is a giant Qinglin python that has cultivated for over eight thousand years. Among the Three Kings of the Eastern Domain, its strength is second only to the Golden Wing King.
Following closely behind was a young man wearing golden armor.
He had a pair of golden wings on his back and an arrogant look in his eyes; he was none other than the Golden Wing King, the leader of the Three Kings of the Eastern Domain.
The Golden Wing King's true form is a Golden-Winged Peng, extremely fast and with formidable attack power.
"Why hasn't Hei Feng arrived yet?" Golden Wing King looked around, frowning as he spoke. "Logically, since the cave abode is on his territory, he should be the first one to arrive."
"He was probably held up by something," said the Azure Scale King. "But it's alright, let's explore first and talk when he arrives."
No sooner had he finished speaking than three more figures appeared at the entrance to the cave abode.
The leader was an old man dressed in a black robe. His face was withered, his eyes were sinister, and he exuded a strong smell of blood.
He is the Great Leader of the Myriad Demon Hall, the Blood Wolf King.
Behind the Blood Wolf King followed two tall, burly men.
The one on the left, with dark skin and wielding a giant axe, is the second leader of the Myriad Demon Hall, the Black Bear King, who, like the Hei Feng Devil Bear, is a bear demon.
The one on the right is tall and thin with a cold look in his eyes; he is the third leader of the Myriad Demon Hall, the Venomous Snake King.
"Hmph, you two got here pretty quickly."
Upon seeing the Azure Qilin King and the Golden Wing King, the Blood Wolf King sneered, his tone filled with disdain.
