Chapter 306: Imperial Mausoleum! Forging My Own Imperial Weapon!
The Sword Intent unleashed by the Divine Soldiers was like a golden long rainbow, directly striking the illusory gate in the void.
With a resounding boom, the sky suddenly broke apart.
Strangely, those shattered pieces of space condensed and intertwined from the void, finally forming a tangible space gate.
In an instant, an ocean-like surge of Spiritual Qi gushed out from the gate.
The humming of countless sharp swords reverberated through the heavens and earth.
"Go!"
While the others were still stunned and hadn't recovered, Su Changqing shouted and swiftly entered the space gate.
Entanglement followed closely behind, disappearing from the world in an instant.
Just as the two disappeared, Tianhuang, draped in a crimson blood robe, tore through the sky and strode out.
"The Emperor's Tomb!"
Tianhuang looked at the majestic tomb in front of him, with madness and killing intent still evident in his eyes,
"I'm not afraid of the Great Emperor when alive, let alone when dead!"
"Today, none of you will escape!"
As his words fell, Tianhuang moved forward to the front of the gate.
Buzz!
The Emperor's Tomb seemed to have rules, disallowing such a formidable being to enter.
In an instant, an endless golden tide of Sword Intent emerged.
The sharp light tore through the heavens and earth, bearing the Great Emperor's unparalleled will, trying to force Tianhuang back.
However, Tianhuang roared angrily, enduring the overwhelming Sword Intent, shattering the void step by step, forcibly entering the space gate.
The fierce attack capable of tearing apart a quasi-emperor apex left him bloodied but couldn't halt his advance.
His terrifying recovery ability enabled him to forcefully breach the Emperor's Tomb!
As the Emperor's Tomb opened, cultivators within the Great Void were all abuzz.
Although the terrifying aura of Tianhuang and Su Changqing instilled fear, the allure of the Emperor's Tomb was enough to make people forget their fear.
People rushed to enter the space gate and venture into the Emperor's Tomb.
However, the Emperor's Tomb, constructed by the Great Emperor, though stable, couldn't compare to the Cangyan Continent.
Therefore, only early Saints or cultivators below Saint level could enter the Emperor's Tomb.
This discovery excited many elites, while expressions of those above Saint level turned gloomy.
A few fearless quasi-emperors tried to emulate Tianhuang, enduring the pressure of the Emperor's Tomb to cross the space gate.
But they couldn't last even a moment, torn apart by the omnipresent Sword Intent in the void.
Though they felt unwilling, they could only stop.
As time passed, elites from all over the continent continued to arrive.
Little Peng King, Zhao Batian, Holy Feather, Xian Banmeng... and so forth arrived in succession.
Even many low-profile monstrous geniuses ended their seclusion and rushed over.
This Emperor's Tomb would be their last stop on the continent.
Once the Emperor's Tomb expedition ended, everyone would battle beyond the realm!
...
Meanwhile, within the Emperor's Tomb.
As waves of dizziness flashed before his eyes, Su Changqing opened his eyes once more, and the scenery before him had drastically changed.
The gilded Sword Qi pervaded the whole world.
The stars in the sky, the mountains, and rivers on the ground, all condensed with tiny Sword Intent.
Thousands of sword artifacts resonated, forming an ancient and illusory war song echoing in his ears.
The space was filled with the true essence of Sword Dao, allowing anyone, even those not Sword Cultivators, to gain much insight.
Su Changqing gazed in awe at the boundless heavens.
This was only the periphery of the Emperor's Tomb; looking far ahead, the distant world was filled with grand sights.
A thousand bronze sword mountains ringed in a circle, and a tens of thousands of meters large profound iron gate stood suspended in the void.
A gilded long river ran through the tomb, with its waters being the liquid form of spiritual essence, infused with imperial Sword Qi...
Such grand scenes unfolded like a dream before his eyes, leaving Su Changqing in amazement for some time.
"Is this the handiwork of the Great Emperor..."
Su Changqing murmured softly, his final gaze falling upon the deepest part of the Emperor's Tomb.
There, it was like a golden world, with a magnificent palace built in the void.
Above the palace floated a mysterious ice coffin, rising and falling.
"Is that the Sword Emperor's burial site..."
The Divine Soldier in Su Changqing's hand hummed, with a mysterious feeling of guidance pointing directly to the depths of the palace.
But before Su Changqing could ponder more deeply, a series of massive explosions suddenly sounded within the Emperor's Tomb.
This world unleashed an overwhelming Sword Intent, an endless gathering of killing intent manifesting from afar.
"Su Changqing, come out!"
Within the terrifying storm of Sword Intent, Tianhuang was pierced by countless sharp swords, yet seemed unfazed.
His yin-filled eyes scanned the heavens, searching for traces of Su Changqing.
"Damned, the Emperor's Tomb can't even stop him!"
Su Changqing's scalp tingled, hurriedly setting up a concealing array around him to hide his presence.
Fortunately, the Great Emperor's aura suppressed the tomb, preventing even Tianhuang's divine sense from extending beyond a thousand feet.
"Find a place to heal first."
Taking a deep look at the turbulent sky far away, Su Changqing turned and left.
Racing all the way, Su Changqing saw numerous rare treasures.
Say no more, he saw several strains of king and saint-level medicines, and even discovered one quasi-emperor level divine herb that had birthed intelligence.
But now was not the time to plunder resources. Suppressing his inner excitement, Su Changqing arrived at the foot of a secluded mountain peak.
After setting up several arrays to hide completely, Su Changqing finally sighed with relief.
Starting from the transportation platform and up until now, the tense strings in his heart finally began to loosen.
"The affair with the Saint Academy is resolved, and the crisis of the Emperor's Tomb will pass this time as well."
Su Changqing muttered to himself, a faint smile appearing on his face,
"And from this, I learned about Tianhuang's existence, reaping significant rewards from the Central State trip."
After the trip to Central State, almost all the crises lurking around him were nearly resolved.
