Chapter 124: Initial Exploration of the Sword Tomb! Senior Sister, are you even jealous of a sword spirit?

Passing through that ancient stone door, a strong sense of weightlessness washed over them.

When his vision cleared, Gu Lan found that he hadn't landed in some idyllic wonderland of singing birds and fragrant flowers, but had instead fallen into a grey and desolate wasteland.

The sky was leaden-grey, with no sun, only a bleak, faint light shining from behind the clouds.

The ground was dark red, as if it had been soaked in blood for tens of millions of years.

Looking out as far as the eye could see, mountains and plains were stuck full of all kinds of broken swords.

Some were rusted, some had only the hilt left, and some were broken into several pieces. They stood like gravestones, exuding a piercing and lingering Sword Intent and resentment.

When the wind blew, they made a "wuwu" sword-humming sound, like thousands of deceased souls crying and howling.

" This is… the Sword Tomb? "

Lvtong rubbed her eyes, looking at this godforsaken place, and her expectant little face instantly collapsed.

" Liars! All of them are liars! "

" Where is the promised Sword Spirit Fruit? Where are the sweet fruits that were promised? "

She kicked a piece of scrap iron nearby, and with a "click", that piece of scrap iron turned out to be a decayed Spiritual Artifact, which was directly shattered by her kick, scaring her into hurriedly shrinking behind Gu Lan.

" It's so eerie here, Senior Brother… "

" It is indeed a dangerous place. "

Hongxiu covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief in disgust, looking at the dark red soil under her feet, her brows furrowed so tightly she could crush a fly.

" This soil is full of the smell of blood, it's filthy to death. "

" If it stains my skirt, I won't let this place off. "

In contrast, Lanyu was completely in her element.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and a trace of intoxication even appeared on her face.

" Such strong Sword Intent… "

" Every broken sword here was once a divine weapon that shook the region during its lifetime. "

" Being able to die here is also a kind of destination. "

Gu Lan shook his head helplessly as he looked at these three women with completely different reactions.

Finally, he looked at Jiang Wanqing, who hadn't spoken all this time, but whose hand remained pressed on the sword hilt.

" Senior Sister, do you have any discoveries? "

Jiang Wanqing scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, finally fixing on the southeast direction.

" Something is coming. "

" And… the quantity is not small. "

As soon as her voice fell,

" Caw——! ! ! "

A harsh screech came from behind the sword mountain ahead.

Following closely, a large swathe of dark clouds swept toward the crowd.

Getting closer, they saw clearly that it wasn't a dark cloud at all, but a flock of strange birds condensed from broken sword fragments and Evil Qi—Sword Sha Crows!

They were pitch-black all over, with wings like knives and beaks like sharp swords, and every single one exuded an aura comparable to the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

This quantity was probably not less than a thousand!

" It's Sword Sha Crows! Gregarious Vicious Beasts that specialize in devouring the flesh and blood of Cultivators and Spiritual Artifacts! "

Hongxiu's expression changed slightly, and the red silk ribbon in her hand instantly flew out.

" Everyone be careful! Don't let them get close! "

However,

before she even made a move,

an even colder Sword Qi had already erupted first.

" A bunch of feathered beasts, how dare you block the way? "

Jiang Wanqing stepped forward, blocking in front of Gu Lan.

The hanshuang sword was unsheathed, and the temperature between heaven and earth plummeted.

" Thousand-Mile Frost! "

Swish——

A blue-and-white Sword Qi swept out, transforming into a sky full of wind and snow.

The hundreds of Sword Sha Crows rushing in the very front didn't even have time to scream before they were instantly frozen into lumps of ice, dropping down with crackling sounds.

" Hmph, mere child's play. "

Seeing her spotlight stolen, how could Hongxiu be willing to show weakness?

" Look at me! Heavenly Demon Chaotic Dance! "

The red silk in her hand was like a spirit snake emerging from its cave, transforming into countless red afterimages, weaving a huge mincing net in the air.

As long as those escaping Sword Sha Crows touched the red silk, they were instantly ground into powder.

" And me, and me! "

Although Lanyu didn't speak much, her sword was very fast.

Her figure was like lightning, shuttling through the flock of crows. Every time a Sword Qi was swung, a Sword Sha Crows must be cut in half, extremely precise.

As for Gu Lan…

He was holding the fentian sword in his hand, just preparing to strike a handsome opening pose.

As a result, he found… there was no room for him to intervene at all!

These three women were like they were in a competition, killing with such vigor.

Jiang Wanqing froze a whole area to death, yet still turned back to look at Gu Lan with a look in her eyes that said: " Senior Sister is amazing, right? "

Hongxiu shredded a whole area, and still threw a wink: " Junior Brother, does Senior Sister look pretty? "

Even Lvtong hid behind Gu Lan, occasionally casting a few vine spells to tie up the falling dead birds, muttering in her mouth: " Can this bird meat be eaten… "

In less than half a cup of tea's time,

the thousands of Sword Sha Crows that made ordinary Cultivators terrified were completely wiped out by this terrifying "women's army".

The ground was covered with shattered ice and debris.

" Hu… "

Jiang Wanqing withdrew her sword into its scabbard and gently stroked the stray hairs at her temples. Her calm and composed appearance was as if she had just casually swatted a few flies.

" Junior Brother, you weren't scared, were you? "

She turned around, looked at Gu Lan with concern, and smoothly blocked Hongxiu's gaze.

" No, no, Senior Sister's Divine Might is peerless, Junior Brother admires you! "

Gu Lan hurriedly offered flattery.

" Hmph, you only know how to put up a front. "

Hongxiu curled her lips, just wanting to say something.

Suddenly,

a sudden change occurred!

The corpse fragments of those Sword Sha Crows on the ground did not dissipate; instead, as if summoned by something, they frantically converged toward the center.

Countless broken swords and Evil Qi fused, and actually gradually condensed into a translucent humanoid phantom.

That was the image of a woman with a hot figure and revealing clothing. Although it was composed of Evil Qi, her alluring vibe was not diminished in the slightest.

" A sword spirit? "

Gu Lan was slightly stunned.

This was a mutated sword spirit condensed from the resentment of countless broken swords!

" Roar—— "

That succubus-like sword spirit let out a sharp screech, its empty eyes swept around the crowd, and finally…

stared fixedly at Gu Lan!

To be precise, it stared at the majestic Pure Yang Qi within Gu Lan's body.

For such yin-evil things, Gu Lan was simply a walking, humanoid supreme tonic!

" Yang Qi… such fragrant Yang Qi… "

The sword spirit let out a bone-melting groan, its figure flashed, and actually ignoring the defenses of Jiang Wanqing and the others, it directly transformed into an afterimage and pounced toward Gu Lan!

That posture, with open arms, was clearly wanting to… throw itself into his arms!

" Husband… I want… "

" Holy shit! "

Gu Lan was startled by this sudden romantic encounter, and instinctively reached to draw his sword.

However,

even faster than him were two Killing Intent-filled delicate shouts.

" Seeking death! "

" Bitch! "

Boom! Boom!

Jiang Wanqing and Hongxiu struck almost simultaneously.

Jiang Wanqing's hanshuang sword Qi transformed into an Ice Dragon, directly biting the left half of the sword spirit's body.

Hongxiu's red silk transformed into a fire python, tightly entwining the right half of the sword spirit's body.

The two women looked at each other, their eyes actually burning with the same flame called "jealousy".

" Get lost… from this lady! ! ! "

" Bang——! ! ! "

That pitiful succubus sword spirit didn't even touch the corner of Gu Lan's clothes before it was forcibly torn into pieces by two terrifying forces!

It exploded into a black fireworks display.

Not even a scrap was left.

Gu Lan: " … "

He looked at the two murderous Senior Sisters in front of him, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

" Um… it's just a sword spirit… is there any need to be so furious? "

" Even a sword spirit won't do! "

Jiang Wanqing's face was cold, she put away her sword, her tone rigid.

" This kind of sleazy thing is an eyesore just to look at. "

" Exactly! "

Hongxiu also rarely stood on the same front as Jiang Wanqing, patting the dust off her hands.

" Dressing like that, at a glance you can tell it's not a proper sword spirit! "

" Still wanting to throw herself into Junior Brother's arms? She doesn't even look at what kind of trash she is! "

" Unless you step over this lady's corpse, no one can even think of touching him! "

Gu Lan shrank his neck.

Good fellow.

Where are these Dao protectors?

This is clearly… a chastity defender!

You're even jealous of a female ghost, are you guys devils? !

Just at this moment,

the burning heaven broken sword at Gu Lan's waist suddenly vibrated slightly.

A faint yet clear sense of guidance came from the sword body, pointing to the depths of the Sword Tomb.

That is…

the call of the same kind?

Or… the aura of that Demonic Sword "Soul Eater"?

Gu Lan's eyes narrowed.

" It seems the main character is right ahead. "

He took a deep breath, looking at the three Senior Sisters who were still "indignant".

" Let's go, the good show… has only just begun. "
