Chapter 109
"The ruler of that Sword Tomb... is the strongest Star Weapon?"
"That's right," Qingchen added, "Many scholars who study the Sword Tomb suspect that Sword Tomb origin is related to the Ruler."
"Did the Overlord establish the Sword Tomb?"
"It's hard to say, but it certainly has its own will."
After the conversation, Li Yang gained a deeper understanding of the Sword Tomb.
Although each Sword Tomb is different, there are certain patterns to Sword Tomb formation.
First of all, this is a gathering place for Masterless Sword.
The Life Domain is Masterless Sword has never recognized one, while the Death Domain is Masterless Sword a master that has lost its master.
And, the ruler of the Life Domain is the strongest Masterless Sword.
Li Yang found it hard not to be intrigued and asked, "Then the ruler of this Sword Tomb...?"
Qingchen knew what she was thinking and shook his head, saying, "It's most likely not a growth-type Star Weapon."
Li Yang looked disappointed, but she quickly understood. "That's right, compared to an unclaimed, evolving Star Weapon, a finished silver or gold Star Weapon is much more powerful."
Qingchen hesitated, as if he wanted to speak.
What he actually meant was that the probability of a growth-type Star Weapon appearing in the Sword Tomb is less than one in ten million.
Because growth-type Star Weapon need the most care and nurturing from their masters in their early stages, they rarely have Star Weapon of rebellion and will mostly obediently acknowledge their masters.
Qingchen didn't want to shatter Li Yang's expectations, so she didn't say it.
The probability is low, but there's always a probability.
As long as we don't give up hope, she might actually meet him.
As the two were talking, a beam of red light shot out.
Li Yang deliberately refrained from making a move, giving Qingchen a chance to test him.
Qingchen's spiritual energy spread out, Li Yang could clearly see the tangible optical fibers landing on the mecha's hard outer shell.
Qingchen saw the outline of the mecha in his Spirit Sea and sighed softly, "What a beautiful sword."
But soon, the mecha went berserk and crashed violently into the ground, turning into a pile of scrap metal.
Qingchen watched silently, then clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha."
After saying that, he moved even faster than Li Yang, opening his Qiankun Bag and filling it with materials.
Thankfully, the Noisy Pot didn't dare make a sound, otherwise it would definitely have complained, "No wonder they're senior and junior brothers, their 'Amitabha' and 'Why bother?' are exactly the same!"
There won't be just one mech in a region; there will often be several roaming around.
It wasn't that the mechs were clustered together, but rather that there were simply too many mechs in the Death Domain. The so-called safe zone that Li Yang had been in before was one that she had cleared out herself.
Another beam of red light shot out.
Li Yang struck first, and after covering the mech with his Spirit Optical Fiber, the mech self-destructed.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them took down five or six mechs.
A pile of materials lay on the ground, and Li Yang relied on Sister Longevity to determine which ones to take.
Qingchen, on the other hand, had a halo of light flickering behind his head, and then precisely retrieved something that looked quite high-end from the pile of scrap metal.
Li Yang asked curiously, "Senior brother, have you cultivated Star Skill?"
Qingchen didn't hide anything from her, saying, "This is my Star Soul. It's not just for identification; it has many other functions."
"Star Soul?"
"Once you Fifth Grade Realm, you'll attempt to condense Star Soul. There's no need to rush to learn about it now; it will hinder your cultivation progress."
Li Yang didn't ask any more questions.
She had seen many beings at a high level, such as her own teacher who was Half-Step Supreme, and Teacher Shen and Teacher Li were also masters among masters.
But precisely because their level of understanding was so high, Li Yang couldn't comprehend them.
Like Star Soul... those at the Sixth Grade Realm Peak and above will not show their abilities as outwardly as those at the Fifth Grade Realm.
Qingchen glanced at Li Yang and asked, "As for you, do you have any Star Skill?"
Li Yang's selection of materials was almost excessively precise. Every piece she received was of excellent quality.
Li Yang answered honestly, "No."
"How did you manage to get so many good materials?"
Li Yang paused for a moment, then said, "It's probably... talent."
Qingchen: "..."Alright, alright, those who Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer are truly remarkable.
Qingchen led the way, bypassing the cluster of mechs, and led Li Yang to the Reversal Formation Core.
The Reversal Formation Core is easy to identify.
In the dimly Death Domain, apart from the red light emitted by the mechs, there was only the green light from the Reversal Formation Core.
The green light was very faint, as dim as a firefly's.
But for Star Wielders with exceptional eyesight, it is as striking as a light in the darkness.
As Li Yang observed the surroundings, based on the distribution of the mechs, she knew that Qingchen had just missed the Reversal Formation Core.
He would rather be chased by two or three hundred mechs than escape to the Life Domain... which shows how ambitious his plans are.
What treasures are hidden in this Death Domain?
Li Yang felt that it was related to the materials she was looking for.
Qingchen urged her again, "You should go to the Life Domain!"
Li Yang insisted, "It's a promise, I'm going to find the second Reversal Formation Core."
Qingchen was somewhat touched, but he could also tell that this junior sister from the Nature Department had quite a bit of ambition and was definitely eyeing the rare and precious treasures of the Death Domain.
"Alright," Qingchen said, "Remember this place. If there's any danger, run this way immediately."
Li Yang: "Mm."
Qingchen pointed in a direction and continued, "Come this way."
There were no mechs in the other direction, but also no Reversal Formation Core; this was an area Qingchen had already searched.
The direction they were heading was filled with mechs. The two of them cleared them as they moved forward, meditating to recover when their mental energy was depleted.
There's no concept of time in the Sword Tomb, but they all brought timers.
It took a full hour to finally catch a glimpse of the second Reversal Formation Core.
Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Now you can rest assured!"
He said to Li Yang, "Go directly to the Life Domain from here, so you don't have to go back."
Li Yang paused, just about to find another reason to follow him...
A beam of blue light suddenly shot out.
This time, the light wasn't red, which surprised both of them.
But they reacted extremely quickly and dodged the mech's attack.
Qingchen warned, "Junior Sister Li, this Masterless Sword is of very high quality; be careful."
Li Yang had already spread his mental energy outwards, covering the more advanced mecha.
However, instead of self-destructing, the mech began to struggle violently.
Li Yang felt waves of sharp pain as her expanding spiritual energy was being devoured!
Qingchen acted swiftly, attacking the mecha.
Distracted, the mecha stopped its backlash against Li Yang and angrily charged towards Qingchen.
Li Yang gritted her teeth and increased her mental energy coverage.
Qingchen said to Li Yang, "I'll help you distract it!"
Li Yang couldn't respond; she simply focused more intently on suppressing the mecha with her mental power.
The halo behind Qingchen's head was incredibly bright; he had transformed into a human-shaped Sun once more, and countless golden light swords rushed towards the mecha.
The clanging of metal rang out, and the dazzling light illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime.
Li Yang's heart pounded—this commotion was too great; if it attracted mechs of similar size... she and Qingchen would be unable to cope!
Li Yang held nothing back, unleashing all his mental power, and finally subdued the mecha.
The silhouette of a mecha sword appeared in her Spirit Sea, its body radiating a silver glow, completely different from the previous red mecha.
Li Yang instantly understood.
In the Astral Realm, different colors correspond to different specifications.
For example, blue represents the Third Grade, purple the Fourth Grade, red the Fifth Grade, and silver the Sixth Grade.
No wonder she couldn't control herself easily.
This Masterless Sword is actually Sixth Grade- grade weapon!
Realizing it was about to be controlled, the Sixth Grade, Masterless Sword let out a desperate wail before detonating itself.
Qingchen shouted sternly, "Junior sister, step back!"
He didn't even need to remind her; Li Yang had already activated Frenzy, maxing out her Bark defense. It was a pity she hadn't been able to repair her Invincible Shield yet, otherwise she would have already started using it at full power!
Even so, the aftershocks of the explosion from the Sixth Grade Masterless Sword still hit her back.
Bark blocks most of the damage.
Li Yang's Power of Starlight was instantly depleted, but thankfully she was not injured.
Qingchen again, he was protected by golden light and was completely unharmed, but he was anxious as he rushed towards Li Yang.
"Junior Sister!"
"I'm fine."
Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief and then advised her, "Listen to your senior brother, go to the Life Domain. I do need to stay in the Death Domain to find some treasures, but you saw it for yourself—even Sixth Grade Masterless Sword has such destructive power..."
Li Yang caught a detail in his words and asked, "Are there any higher-grade Masterless Sword here?"
Qingchen paused for a moment, then frankly stated, "Both the Life Domain and the Death Domain have rulers, and the ruler of the Death Domain is at least of Immortal Grade rank."
The Seventh Grade is gold.
The Eighth Grade is no longer defined by a simple color, but is called the Immortal Grade —its color tends to be a multicolored black.
As for the Ninth Grade, it is called the Saint Grade, corresponding to the colorful white.
For example, the layers upon layers of Lianxin's garments are of the colors of Saint Grade.
Of course, once he enters the "playing dead" mode, those at a lower level cannot see through it; they only perceive it as a beautiful, snow-white color.
Qingchen's words, Li Yang became even more certain that what she was looking for was in the Death Domain.
-
Life Domain.
Jiang Yuqing wanted to cry but had no tears.
We promised we'd never be apart.
How did he end up separated from Li Yang by "life and death"?
Jiang Yuqing Risking Life searching for the Reversal Formation Core leading to the Death Domain in the Life Domain, but unexpectedly they were captured by a female demon!
What does it mean for a word to become a prophecy?
Jiang Yuqing is really going to become the bandit's wife this time!
Chapter 109
Jiang Yuqing had no idea what it was like for others to enter the Sword Tomb.
He's really had a lot of bad luck.
Putting aside the unfortunate matter of separating from Li Yang, the very fact that he ended up in this Life Domain is highly unusual.
