Chapter 597 - 586: Xuanyuan Sword

The Qilin Egg, endowed with immense divinity, was covered with demonic patterns!

"So that’s how it is."

"The source is actually here."

The Fire Qilin, even before its birth, was already soaked in the demon energy and evil energy here.

No wonder it was born with Mad Blood!

Thus indirectly giving rise to the Mad Blood family.

"Who on earth is buried in this coffin?"

Ding Ling was curious.

Yet he didn’t have the intention to step forward and open the coffin.

Just because the arrays here are interlinked with those outside, attempting to break the formations here would also smash the grand array outside, causing this cavern world to completely collapse!

"It seems breaking this array is nearly impossible."

Ding Ling previously hit the stone wall hard, causing it to shake violently, believing that a magnification of power dozens of times could break through the array on the stone wall.

It seems now.

That it is difficult to accomplish.

Just because to break the array, one must also destroy the Qilin Egg and the coffin before him!

Leaving aside the power the eight Qilin Eggs possess.

This coffin was extremely strange and demonic, its surrounding demon energy and evil energy surged immensely like overwhelming waves, crashing fiercely, enough to seemingly hear the roaring water noises.

Very obviously.

The demon energy and evil energy here have materialized.

Ding Ling, with his limited Buddha Qi and Vast Righteous Qi, feared he would lack the strength to disperse these demon energies.

Of course, Ding Ling wouldn’t recklessly go forward and try.

"Even if my Dragon Form and Elephant Form combined forces, it would probably still be hard to withstand the counterattack of this demon energy and evil energy."

This demon energy and evil energy could easily corrode the eight Qilin Eggs!

Ding Ling’s Dragon Form and Elephant Form only possess the divine power of one Fire Qilin.

How can it withstand the vicious counterattack of this materialized demon energy?

Ding Ling did not look at the coffin any longer.

Instead, he turned and closely examined the arrangement in all directions.

Here it looked like a sort of cavern, with stalactites hanging down above, bizarre yet vivid, depicting things like an eagle playing with a bear, a lone golden rooster, and flowers and plants, all vividly alive.

Not just the upper stone walls, everywhere in the cave walls and passageways were jagged stones and strange rocks;

With the radiant red glow emitted by the Qilin Eggs, Ding Ling could see very far.

At the end of the passage seemed to be luminescent fiery trees and silver flowers, rugged rocks, and naturally formed pavilions.

Ding Ling saw all these and was quite moved, thinking: "Could this place have been inhabited before? Otherwise, why else would it be constructed so exquisitely? Like a paradise?"

Ding Ling carefully used Stargazing Skill, Geomancy Skill, and Mechanical Skill to examine the structure all around, determined the path ahead, and boldly strode forth.

Before long,

He came to the luminescent fiery trees and silver flowers, glanced up, three zhang tall, clearly stone carvings yet looking like living things, extremely dazzling.

Ding Ling shook his head, didn’t look any further.

Many treasures here.

Appeared earth-shattering, quite extraordinary.

But they were all made of stone, useless to him.

Of course, he was afraid of missing treasures, but upon careful sensing, without exception, they truly were made of stone.

Ding Ling also wondered what kind of person was so idle, to carve ’artworks’ all over this cavern?

But when Ding Ling reached the end of the passage and saw a faintly glowing portal, he suddenly realized that these stone sculptures were intricately linked to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, used to suppress the coffin.

"Not only these artworks capable of automatically absorbing essence, but also those eight Qilin Eggs, all were used to suppress that coffin."

"It seems that what’s in the coffin must be a peerless evil demon. Hence someone needed to spend such a huge effort for multiple levels of suppression!"

Ding Ling looked at the door before him.

It embedded in the ground, serving as the array eye, enlivening all the artworks in the cavern.

Ding Ling stepped within, instantly feeling his power nearly uncontrollably draining away?

"What is this?"

Ding Ling looked down.

This array was siphoning his power!

And as the power was being drawn,

The array glittered, the artworks all around began to glow in tandem, accompanied by a booming sound, the portal opened, and Ding Ling stepped into emptiness, his whole body falling down.

Crack!

After he fell,

The door immediately closed, reverting to its previously ordinary appearance.

Thud!

Ding Ling dropped into an area of flat ground out of nowhere.

He quickly scanned his surroundings.

This place was a very expansive realm.

Both sides of the ground still held numerous stonework artworks, the largest being a dragon a hundred zhang long!

Like the previous artworks, this dragon emitted a faint glow, vividly lifelike, seemingly alive.

And at the dragon’s head, where Ding Ling was, at the very end, there was a section of bone.

This bone, although less than four feet long, shimmered with mystical light, seemingly resonating with the carved divine dragon.

Adjacent to the bone was a human skeleton, and beside the skeleton rested a fully golden sword.

"Where is this?"

Ding Ling was taken aback.

It looked so familiar.

"Could this be a Dragon Vein?"

Ding Ling’s heart stirred, he leaped, soaring elegantly, ascending on wind, his feet skimming over the hundred-zhang body of the divine dragon, landing gently beside the Dragon Vein.

Ding Ling reached out to pick up the Dragon Vein.

But upon touching it, he retracted his hand,

Instead reached for the golden sword nearby.

The golden sword had no scabbard.

When Ding Ling picked it up, he could clearly see three characters engraved on its blade:

"Xuanyuan Sword!"

"Indeed, it’s the ancient Human Emperor Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan!"

"This must indeed be where a Dragon Vein is kept!"

Ding Ling tried to activate the Xuanyuan Sword.

He tried many methods, finding it as unresponsive as dead wood, almost entirely ineffective.

Only when he unconsciously operated the Human Emperor Breathing Technique, clanging!

The Xuanyuan Sword seemed to come alive, starting to tremble and hum, bursting forth with sky-piercing sword light.

The main body continuously ripples with brilliance, but changed drastically in an instant.

Originally the blade only had three characters inscribed

Now it bore engravings of sun, moon, and stars on one side, mountains, rivers, and flora on the other!

On the originally blank hilt, small characters rose to the surface.

Ding Ling scanned through them rapidly.

In an instant,

[Farming and Breeding Skill Full Level]

[Four Seas Unification Strategy Full Level]

Written upon it were the two essential techniques for a Human Emperor.

After Ding Ling had both techniques at full level,

A peculiar energy naturally arose within him, constantly resonating with the Xuanyuan Sword, causing torrents of Sword Qi within the Xuanyuan Sword to shoot out incessantly.

For a moment,

Heaven and earth changed color.

Fengyun emerged spontaneously!

Sword Qi shot towards the Celestial Extreme, spontaneously drawing in torrents of Spiritual Qi into Ding Ling!

Such an extraordinary phenomenon,

Was terrifying!

It caused the two eight-foot tall men guarding the door outside this space to look at each other, seemingly sensing something, and then, in perfect synchronization, they opened the gate and rushed in.
