Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1500: Ten Thousand Sword Formation

"The barrier at the end of the first layer has been broken."

The surrounding Sword Cultivators were all wearing expressions of disbelief.

Xiao Yi’s figure gradually passed through the barrier, slowly disappearing from everyone’s view.

Though the gathering of Sword Cultivators showed envy, they could only watch and stop in their tracks.

That step was one they could not take.

A second later.

Xiao Yi was already gone from everyone’s sight.

And the barrier at the end of the first layer returned to normal.

"Damn it, how did that guy do it?" Fengg Ji’s fist clenched with a crackling sound.

"How is it possible?" Even the seasoned Sword Cultivators wore expressions of disbelief.

It was those Sword Dao Disciples from the Academy who still wore arrogant expressions.

"Hmph, even if he enters the second layer space, so what."

"Not to mention whether he can gain an opportunity in the second layer space; even if he does, waste remains waste."

"Indeed." Several of the Sword Obsession Disciples from the Five Fools Academy sneered.

"Senior Brother Linghu Wang and other Chiefs of the Academies are currently being cultivated by various great experts at the Heavenly Hidden Academy."

"If they were here, when would it be this little thief’s turn to show off?"

"Senior Brother Linghu Wang doesn’t even need to be here," an Academy Disciple said smugly.

"Though the benefits within the Sword Emperor Stele are also extraordinary,"

"But ultimately, how can they compare to the foundation of the Five Great Academy."

"Various Cultivation Resources and Treasures are at the Chiefs’ fingertips."

"Let this little thief be arrogant for a while; someday, he will surely know what is superiority and inferiority."

The disciples and elders of the academy appeared to possess an innate arrogance.

The surrounding Sword Cultivators, upon hearing this, frowned but said nothing.

After all, the foundation of the Five Great Academy is truly terrifying.

Even if they truly gained great benefits within the Sword Emperor Stele, it likely wouldn’t compare to the full cultivation by the Five Great Academy.

...

Inside the second layer space of the Sword Emperor Stele.

Xiao Yi’s silhouette flickered as he entered.

The requirements to break the barrier at the end of the first layer weren’t actually difficult.

Once a Martial Artist had walked through the life experiences of the owner of the Sword Stele, they had completed the path of Sword Qi.

But still, there was one final sword.

It was the most powerful sword of the Sword Stele owner’s life, the ’Death Sword.’

Whether one could unleash this sword or comprehend it depended on the Comprehender’s skill.

This sword was the one to break the barrier.

Within Xiao Yi’s perspective, that star-cutting sword was Senior Zhanxing’s Death Sword.

After that sword, Senior Zhanxing fell.

The exact reason was unknown to Xiao Yi.

Those images were ultimately fragmented impressions, not a real life story.

Calculating it this way, the years Senior Zhanxing lived were only about ten thousand years.

Counting the battles, growth, and the final three-thousand-year enlightenment, it adds up to about ten thousand years.

Therefore, it was not due to the end of lifespan that Senior Zhanxing fell.

"Three thousand years in retreat, just for that most powerful sword, the star-annihilating strike."

"Afterward, he fell into oblivion."

Xiao Yi’s eyebrows furrowed, "In the last moments of Senior Zhanxing’s life, what exactly did he experience?"

This was something Xiao Yi couldn’t know.

Referring back to the benefits apart from the improvement in Sword Dao, it was the strengthening of the ’Sword Heart.’

Over timeless years of accumulation and tempering, Xiao Yi’s Cultivation didn’t improve in the slightest, because those were all illusions.

However, his level in the Sword Dao saw significant improvement within it.

His ’Sword Heart’ also became incredibly solid over that long deposit.

That final sword seemed to shatter the stars; in fact, it also shattered all the negative impacts Xiao Yi accumulated from comprehending that immense narrative.

With that final sword,

having walked through the life experiences of Senior Zhanxing, not only was there no impact on thoughts and memory, but even the ’Sword Heart’ became a hundredfold sturdier in that instant.

This was the true great advantage.

Such a firm Sword Heart was something Xiao Yi could never have imagined before.

He was even certain that no matter how much he advanced in the future, even surpassing the level of a Supreme Expert and beyond, he wouldn’t develop even the slightest Heart Demon.

Even though he currently practiced the Qi-Blood Dao, no matter how much Qi-blood the Blood Pearl absorbed, it wouldn’t affect his mind the least.

Xiao Yi chuckled.

This Sword Domain event was truly worth attending.

Clang... Clang... Clang...

At this moment, countless sword hums arose within the second layer space.

Xiao Yi gazed around.

The entire second layer space was also boundless, likely similar in size to the first layer space.

Yet, within the second layer space, there weren’t any Sword Steles.

What there were, were swords scattered all over.

Among these swords, Xiao Yi recognized one of them, which was Star-cutting.

If not mistaken, these swords were the swords of the respective Sword Stele owners during their lifetimes.

Tens of thousands of Divine Weapons stood seemingly in chaotic disorder.

In actuality, Xiao Yi saw with a glance that the sword blades stood their ground, forming a Sword Array naturally.

At this time, dozens of sword blades soared into the air.

In the distance, two figures attempted to pass through the blockade of the sword blades.

The two figures were Lin Zifeng and Zhuo Wanzong.

In the distance, Lin Zifeng evidently noticed the suddenly appearing Xiao Yi.

"Senior Brother Xiao Yi." Lin Zifeng immediately abandoned the battle with the sword blades and instantly appeared beside Xiao Yi.

"Junior Brother Zifeng." Xiao Yi chuckled.

In the distance, Zhuo Wanzong, who was originally fighting with the dozens of sword blades, couldn’t hold off anymore once lacking Lin Zifeng’s assistance.

He could only retreat angrily to his original position.

"Zifeng, what are you doing?" Zhuo Wanzong asked angrily.

"Hmm? Xiao Yi, you little thief?" Zhuo Wanzong frowned at Xiao Yi, "You could actually come to the second layer?"

Lin Zifeng didn’t care about Zhuo Wanzong and instead smiled at Xiao Yi, "I always knew that with Senior Brother Xiao Yi’s ability, the first layer definitely couldn’t stop you."

"Heh." Xiao Yi chuckled.

Lin Zifeng always had immense confidence in Xiao Yi.

"What is the trial of the second layer?" Xiao Yi asked.

Lin Zifeng pointed to the surrounding swords and said, "It is to pass through this Ten Thousand Sword Formation."

"In fact, in the first layer space, the swords standing beside the Sword Stele were just an illusion."

"The real swords have always been in the second layer."

"Inside the second layer, prohibitions and Sword Arrays naturally form; these tens of thousands of Divine Weapons are the obstacles preventing us from reaching the second layer’s end."

"These tens of thousands of Divine Weapons aren’t ordinary things." Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.

The Lin Family, as the Guardians of the Sword Emperor Stele; and Lin Zifeng, both a Heavenly Talent with the Sword Emperor Bloodline and the Young Master of the Lin Family.

Naturally, he was extraordinarily familiar with the spaces within the Sword Emperor Stele.

And these tens of thousands of swords, each one had gone through countless bloody baptisms and heaven-shaking battles.

Each of these Divine Weapons had accompanied the Sword Stele owners through their distinguished lives, none were mundane items.

The power of the Sword Array formed by these weapons is...

Lin Zifeng forced a smile and said, "It is just that the power of this Sword Array is too strong, so Zhuo Wanzong and I have been here for eight days without any solution."

"At most, we only manage to advance a few dozen miles against the Sword Array."

Compared to the vast second layer space, these dozens of miles are merely a starting point.

...

Third update.
