Chapter 692 - 359: Celestial Veil Kingdom! Langhuan Book Realm!

Seven-Star Sword Tomb, deep within the Sword Abyss.

The previously quiet Sword Qi suddenly became frenzied, causing the myriad broken divine swords embedded in the Sword Platform to tremble.

Swoosh—

As if a stream of dazzling light shot out, a black-clad figure soared into the sky.

The terrifying aura instantly dispersed all Sword Qi, and the broken divine swords on the Sword Platform immediately fell silent.

Chu Ming glanced around, his face revealing a joyful expression.

"It’s about time."

After more than ten days of seclusion, aided by the four lakes within the Sea of Consciousness, he finally made another breakthrough.

Perfection in the Nascent Qi Realm!

The next step is to let the Nascent Qi give birth to Divine Will, reaching the Divinity Opening Realm, the seventh realm.

However, even though he had deduced the cultivation technique for the Divinity Opening Realm, the Divine Will of the Nascent Qi cannot be born in a short period.

Divine Will is born in the Primordial Qi Mansion, nurtured within the Nascent Qi; as long as the cultivation technique continues to operate, it’s a natural process.

Therefore, Chu Ming did not plan to continue his seclusion.

Glancing around, his form suddenly became ethereal, ascending towards the top of the Sword Abyss.

Flying out of the Sword Abyss, standing in the void, the Seven Great Sword Tombs appeared before his eyes.

Upon his arrival, he had ventured through each of the sword tombs; returning would not be so troublesome.

With a gentle lift of his hand, the Sword Spirit flew out from within him, suddenly expanding, transforming into the Heaven-Opening Sword.

One sword opened the sword tomb, and a Seven-Star Avenue automatically appeared in the sky above the Seven Sword Tombs.

Chu Ming tread upon the avenue, heading towards the exit.

Outside the Seven-Star Sword Tomb, one hundred thousand Seven-Star Guards stood watch.

Above, Chang Lu and Lingx Luo stood side-by-side.

Suddenly.

Buzz—

A mist rolled, vaguely revealing the Seven Great Sword Tombs.

Hmm?

Chang Lu instantly focused his gaze.

"Brother Luo... someone is coming out!"

"Yes."

Lingx Luo nodded, spiritual light flickering in his palm, where a Primordial Artifact emitting a faint green glow appeared.

"Full Moon Luo Ring!"

Chang Lu’s eyes brightened.

Tier Seven top-grade treasure; Lingx Luo once used this artifact to kill three Seventh Realm experts in the Ghostly Sea, two of whom were at the middle stage of the Seventh Realm!

Chang Lu was not idle either, flipping his hand to reveal two large hammers.

These two hammers were also no ordinary treasures, both being Second-class Innate Spiritual Treasures.

The two of them blocking here, along with one hundred thousand Seven-Star Guards, meant that unless an Eighth Realm expert arrived today, no one could escape.

The phantom mountain of the Seven Great Sword Tombs became increasingly distinct, the mist spontaneously dispersed, revealing a Seven-Star Avenue appearing above the sword tombs.

And on that avenue, a black-clad youth was walking out.

Using the foundation of the seven sword tombs, Sword Qi paved as the avenue?

Chang Lu’s pupils shrank suddenly.

The Seven-Star Sword Tomb had existed here for countless years before the Seven-Star Kingdom even came into being.

There are numerous legends about the Seven-Star Sword Tomb, one being: The master of the sword tomb, the path of seven stars opens!

This person...

A sudden bad premonition surged in Chang Lu’s heart.

Not only him, but Lingx Luo, who had appeared calm moments ago, also showed a serious expression.

He had heard many legends concerning the Seven-Star Sword Tomb as well.

"Humph! So what if the sword tomb acknowledges him, as long as he dares to step out of the tomb, I will avenge Brother Han Court!"

It’s said that the master of the sword tomb can call upon the Sword Qi of the entire Seven-Star Sword Tomb, but only within the tomb.

Outside the sword tomb, the so-called master is no different from anyone else.

On the Seven Stars Sword Dao, Chu Ming slowly walked, his raised eyes gazing through the white mist at the area beyond the sword tomb.

One hundred thousand Seven-Star Guards, two Seventh Realm experts.

If they want battle, then so be it.

The mist converged, the Seven Stars Sword Dao vanishing, leaving Chu Ming suspended in the air, calmly gazing forward.

"Either surrender! Or be smashed to death by me!" Chang Lu’s voice sounded like a great bell and drum.

"Seven-Star Guards, prepare the Seven-Star Sword Array!"

Below, one hundred thousand soldiers divided into seven factions, all wielding Seven-Star Swords.

At Chang Lu’s command, the Seven-Star Sword Array manifested, enveloping the entire sky.

"Die!"

Chang Lu charged out first.

Almost simultaneously, the Seven-Star Sword Array condensed by one hundred thousand commanding officers and Chang Lu’s hammer struck toward the black-clad youth.

Following these two formidable attacks, Lingx Luo manipulated the Full Moon Luo Ring which came right after.

Both Chang Lu and Lingx Luo understood that a person who could become the acknowledged master of the sword tomb, even outside the tomb, was not to be underestimated in strength.

They struck with thunderous might, aiming for a killing blow.

Chu Ming stepped upon his Primordial Artifact, his eyes deep and unperturbed.

Raising his hand, the Seven-Star Divine Sword emerged, and a black Flame Dragon appeared!

Boom—

With one sword, the Seven-Star Sword Array constructed by one hundred thousand soldiers crumbled, and the entire army collectively spat blood.

With the second sword, the Seventh Realm Returning to the Origin Realm middle-stage Chang Lu’s physical body was obliterated.

After two swords, the black Flame Dragon opened its abyssal maw, forcibly devouring the Tier Seven top-grade Primordial Artifact Full Moon Luo Ring, instantly severing Primordial Consciousness, and a mutated black flame followed the Primordial Consciousness to consume.

"Pfft—"

Lingx Luo spat out a mouthful of crimson, a sudden chill sweeping through his body.

Regardless, he hurriedly severed his Primordial Consciousness, turning away to flee.

Yet.

Whoosh—

A silver gleam pierced the void.

Boom—

It did not penetrate, but the brute force made Lingx Luo vomit blood again.

Terror engulfed him, and not daring to look back, he took out a Teleportation Treasure.

Roar—

Before the treasure glowed, the black Flame Dragon came to consume.

Lingx Luo cast a desperate glance, severing all ties with this world.

The dust settled.

Chu Ming strode into the air, picking up the treasures left by the two. He glanced at the ten thousand remnants below, his figure becoming a stream of light, disappearing over the horizon.

...

Celestial Veil Kingdom, Celestial Curtain City.

This city was the largest in the Celestial Veil Kingdom, covering an area as large as five Xirong counties of the former Qin Dynasty.

Chu Ming walked along the avenue paved with profound stones, savoring the prosperity of the strongest nation in the Ancient Profound Western Continent.

Martial Arts Hall, tavern, pharmacy, forge, Qing Fang, etc., countless establishments.

Since leaving the Seven-Star Sword Tomb and slaying Chang Lu and Lingx Luo, he traversed through the Seven-Star Kingdom and Lingwu Kingdom, arriving directly at the Celestial Veil Kingdom.

"Master Ancestor, I have arrived at the Celestial Veil Kingdom."
