Chapter 593: Sword Path

kened.Having known each other for decades, he had a good understanding of Lu Zhang's abilities. Facing a great cultivator, even if he was not up to par, he could still hold his own for a while and wo...After the sword qi dissipated, there was also a layer of faint light hidden on the cliff face. If you were not careful, it would be easy to overlook it.

Before this glow appeared, there was nothing unusual about the cliff face, no trace of any restrictions or spirit formations could be felt.

But when Qin Sang changed to the Cold Gold Sword and slashed out ordinary sword qi.

As the sword qi was about to strike, it was blocked by a strange force. The sword qi was impacted and quickly dissipated. In the end, the very faint sword qi floated gently on top, still unable to leave a scratch.

What's different is that there was no glimmer on the stone wall this time.

Here's the translated text:

As Jing Po had said, only by cultivating the Yuan Shen Yang Jian Zhang and imbuing one's sword qi with the unique killing intent of the Killing Talisman could one activate the Sword Ban here and open this place.

Qin Sang no longer hesitated and immediately urged the Wumu Sword to strike again.

As each sword qi was swallowed by the cliff, the light on the cliff became increasingly apparent.

Another sword qi disappeared into the mountain cliff. Qin Sang suddenly felt the mountain peak beneath his feet tremble slightly. This time, the light on the mountain cliff did not disappear.

The whole cliff glowed with a faint light, and within the light, a door materialized. The interior of the door was pitch black.

Qin Sang's eyes narrowed, and he flashed forward to the door.

Now that the Ten Directions King's Banner is useless, Qin Sang focuses on activating the Ebony Sword, which swirls around him as a defense.

Behind the door was a magnificent ancient palace, towering over ten meters high. The deepest part was shrouded in darkness, stretching into an unseen abyss.

You have to know, this place is almost at the top of the mountain. The peak is slender and it's impossible for such a large ancient palace to exist here. I wonder what secret method was used to build it.

What's most peculiar is that the ground of the ancient hall was covered with swords of all shapes and sizes!

These swords were not spirit swords, but stone swords carved from stone. They came in various shapes and sizes; some were abnormally wide and heavy as mountains, while others were as thin as cicada wings. No two swords were alike.

They were stuck upside down in the ground, half their blades exposed, almost filling the entire ancient hall.

In the center of thousands of stone swords, there is a path only wide enough for one person to pass through, straight through to the depths of the ancient hall.

This is a sword path!

Qin Sang stood at the door, his expression solemn. These stone swords didn't look like spirit swords, or even ordinary stones, but he could sense that the ancient hall was filled with chaotic sword intent.

These sword intents are very familiar, originating from the same source as the Book of Cultivating Divine Swords.

The death talisman on the ebony sword trembled, as if delighted, to have met its kind.

Qin Sang stared at the center of the ancient hall.

There was darkness everywhere, impenetrable to sight and even divine sense. For any who dared venture into the ancient hall with their divine sense, they would be instantly shredded by the pervasive sword intent.

What place is this

The Path of Trial

>

Qin Sang felt puzzled. He knew that some sword cultivators' sects had similar trials. The elders would leave behind the essence of their sword intent, guiding their disciples to comprehend the Sword Dao and refine their swordsmanship.

Shaohua Mountain also has such a place called Jianta. Qin Sang had been there twice, but the "Yuan Shen Yang Jian Chapter" was too special, and its effect wasn't obvious. Later, Qin Sang rarely went there again.

These sword intents were distinctly different from those in Shaohua Mountain's Sword Tower. Each one carried a shocking killing intent, truly worthy of being derived from the 《Yuan Shen Yang Jian Zhang》.

Cultivating the Yuánshén Yǎngjiàn Zhāng, a person who has walked this path of swordsmanship should have some realizations.

But he only cared about the speed of cultivation and the powerful divine abilities of this technique. During his training, he relied on the Jade Buddha for protection, treating it as a tool. He didn't become completely immersed in the path of killing like others.

I wonder if I can gain anything from walking the Sword Path.

After a moment's hesitation, Qin Sang urged his ebony sword, unleashing a protective aura of sword energy, and stepped into the ancient hall.

The next moment, the light suddenly dimmed.

Suddenly, thousands of stone swords trembled at once, and the hall echoed with the long cries of their blades.

The ebony sword was also affected, its sword qi rippling and humming.

With the ebony sword's response, the scattered sword intents in the air calmed down.

>

But the stone sword closest to Qin Sang vibrated with increasing urgency. In an instant, the stone sword flashed, and a sword intent flew towards him, arriving in an instant.

Qin Sang didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary stone sword could actually slash out sword intent, and this sword intent was incredibly powerful, making him feel a bit palpitating.

Fortunately, Qin Sang had prepared for this. The ebony sword flashed before Qin Sang, deflecting the sword intent precisely and without deviation. The sword energy surged, facing it head-on.

'Bang!'

With a sudden clash, the ebony sword suddenly dimmed, its sword qi scattered.

However, a trace of sword intent remained, passing over the ebony sword and slashing towards Qin Sang.

Qin Sang's face changed slightly. He had used all his strength, but he was still unable to withstand it. This sword intent was almost as powerful as the sword techniques of a Golden Core cultivator.

He hastily pinched the sword formula, just about to use his sword to block, suddenly his movements paused, as if sensing something, he chose to abandon summoning back the Ebony Sword, relying only on his own strength to resist.

The sword intent was like a fine thread, gently falling onto Qin Sang's forehead.

Qin Sang was on high alert.

To everyone's surprise, the sword intent did not leave a wound on Qin Sang's body. Instead, it directly slashed into Qin Sang's spirit space and was finally easily dispersed by the yellow light of the Jade Buddha.

"As expected!"

Qin Sang was secretly excited. He had just vaguely guessed a few things.

This place isn't any different either, similar to the sword tower of Shaohua Mountain.

This sword may seem fearsome, but it is merely the sword intent sealed within the stone sword. It is not true sword qi, and it only attacks the primordial spirit. The purpose is to make disciples with insufficient cultivation know their limits and withdraw.

If it were a place of trials, I'm afraid only disciples at the stage of forming their core would be able to pass through with ease.

With his own cultivation, without the protection of the Jade Buddha, he could only be trembling and cautiously chipping away at it one sword at a time. Even if he made smooth progress all the way, whether he could reach the depths of the ancient hall before the Ziwei Palace closed was still unknown.

Remember what Granny Jing mentioned before, cultivating the Yuanshen Yangjian Zhang, only after breaking through the Jindan stage could there be a greater hope of finding Senior Qingzhu's relics. It wasn't an empty boast, indeed.

Fortunately, it was only sword intent invading the soul. I could easily deflect it with the jade Buddha.

As for himself, this sword path is a straightforward one!

However, Qin Sang did not rely on the Jade Buddha and directly charged in.

In the instant when the烏木 sword and sword intent collided, Qin Sang seemed to see a bloody scene. Before he could understand it carefully, he was startled by the power of the sword intent.

Now that I think about it, this kind of scene should be left behind by the sages. The sword intent contains their understanding of martial arts, kendo, and the way of killing. If I could take a few more glances, I would definitely benefit.

Qin Sang's understanding of the martial arts technique was far from as profound as Qing Zhu's senior, who had immersed himself in it step by step. Perhaps he wouldn't be able to immediately grasp anything.

But as long as you firmly remember it and slowly contemplate it later, it should be helpful for your future cultivation and understanding of killing talismans.

Perhaps it could make the speed of engraving killing talismans faster!

If there's no danger, why not give it a try

He came into the ancient hall very smoothly, with no delays in between, and the allotted time was sufficient.

Qin Sang thought and acted, continuing to urge the Blackwood Sword forward with large strides.>Although the Suzaku spirit is weak, it can still summon the Solar Bird of Fire, and it doesn't need to control it for too long.>Because the sunbird gathered itself into fire on Qin Sang's chest, and...
