A strange, dark yellow spiritual energy quietly spread in the ground, and it soon dug ten miles into the ground.

The two people on the ground remained clueless. Ye Changge activated the spiritual spell formation that he had long prepared in advance.

A strong gravitational force struck out.

The two people in black clothes floating in the air were forced to the ground by the tremendous pressure.

Their exclamations of surprise were followed by painful groans.

The immense pressure pinned them to the ground. It did not just stop there. The ground gave way and started to shove them underground.

Ye Changge did not intend to waste any time. As soon as the array was at full power, he teleported to the ground.

He quickly drew his sword. All the members of the Ten Pinnacle Sword Sect were killed where they helplessly remained pinned. The young man who held the blood flame demon sword was the first to be killed.

The Blood Flame Demon Sword that he had pinned his hopes on did not allow him to kill everyone — instead, it became his soul-pulling rope.

After making sure that all the disciples of the Ten Pinnacle Sword Sect were dead, Ye Changge disappeared. He retreated to a distance and began to examine the treasured sword he had just taken.

The sword was long and thin, emitting a faint heat.

Ye Changge sensed that there was a faint guiding force on the sword. It seemed to tug the sword towards a certain direction, albeit faint.

That direction was the west ocean.

There was only one force. If other keys were attracted to each other, there would be more than one force.

Therefore, with only one sword, they should be able to find the location of the sword tomb.

Having made up his mind, Ye Changge went back to the Hidden Edge Sect.

He told Li Shiyi and Yu Xiuxing to cultivate well before covering the entire Hidden Edge Sect with the Heavenly Passage.

After that, Ye Changge chose to take a detour from the southern border to the west sea,

There were too many hidden powerhouses in the central region, and extremely powerful forces were both in the open and in the dark. In order to avoid any accidents along the way, this route was the safest.

..

In the unknown underground of the Central Region, in the headquarters of the Asura Ghost Region.

In the center of a large hall was a strange stone statue.

It was made of a special material, and there was a faint luster flowing about it.

It had three heads and six arms. One face was angry, one was determined, one was indifferent. Together it produced an intense killing intent.

Suddenly, the entire stone statue began to shake.

The head with the indifferent expression left behind bloody tears in its eyes, making it seem even more bizarre and terrifying.

A gust of cold wind blew past, and a person wearing an evil ghost mask looked at the stone statue.

"A warning sign! What kind of crisis would cause the asura statue to shed tears of blood as a warning sign?!"

..

In the Heavenly Mortal Tower of the Wan Xiang Sect.

The first elder of the Wan Xiang Sect stood at the top of the tower again and raised his head to look at the sky.

"The stars are abnormal. Something abnormal has happened. I'm afraid that something new has happened that brought about this heavenly punishment. It's not a good thing."

There were no clouds in the sky, but the sky reflected in the first Elder's eyes was blood-red, which was very strange.

..

West Ocean, the Myriad Swords Sect.

At the coast of the main island of the Myriad Swords Sect, a towering stone pillar had been erected into the high sky.

A faint vibration was heard. Many stones on the top of the stone pillar were knocked loose and rolled down. As the stone pillar was too high, they fell at a high speed, striking the surface of the sea violently.

"Something strange is happening on the sword peak. I'm afraid that something bad will happen to our sect. All the islands should send people to investigate it immediately."

..

Ye Changge flew at a high altitude of 10,000 meters.

At such a distance, it was impossible for many people to detect his position.

In regular secret lands, their defensive formations would not be this high. If it was a high mountain, Ye Changge would circle around it.

Don't provoke unnecessary trouble. Such was Ye Changge's belief. After all, he could not completely suppress the mortal world at the moment.

Among the Eastern and southern regions' hundred thousands of mountains, Ye Changge frowned slightly.

"How can there be such a strange ghost qi here? The blood qi and the fluctuations of space are also very strange. It seems that part of the space here is constantly being folded."

To do this, one had to be immensely powerful.

It did not seem like a natural phenomenon, so Ye Changge grew even more suspicious.

However, he had other matters to attend to at the moment. He could only give up on this place and keep it in mind.

After memorizing the specific location, Ye Changge continued on his journey.

In the headquarters of the Central Region's Asura ghost region, the evil stone statue was shaking violently. It was even stronger than before.

Those who were specially there to investigate the situation of the statue were all shocked.

More shocking was how the ferocious-looking stone head's sharp teeth had actually cracked open.

"What on Earth is going on? Why is there such an ominous sign? Quick, quick, go inform the Ghost Emperor!"

..

The moment he arrived at the border between the southern and western regions, Ye Changge was slightly relieved.

After all, he was no longer in sight of the experts of the central region.

After slightly lowering his guard, Ye Changge once again increased his speed.

With his current cultivation state and the power of the Star-stepping Divine Traveling technique, the speed he could attain was astonishing.

It was likely that the regular swordsmen of the Heavenly Tribulation State wouldn't be able to notice his passing.

As time passed, Ye Changge sped up and the pulling force of the longsword in his hand only grew.

Finally, he arrived at his destination, half a month after his departure.

There was a huge whirlpool in the west ocean.

"This is the place. The Sword Emperor Tomb should be under this place."

The whirlpool below churned violently, forming a huge black hole in the center. It was so deep that one could not see the bottom.

An immeasurable amount of seawater would fall into the whirlpool with every breath.

"Such power and such a huge whirlpool. It is indeed worthy of being the work of the Emperor."

After praising it, Ye Changge activated a magic formula and charged toward the black hole in the center of the whirlpool.

The deeper he went, the more intense the spatial fluctuations became. A powerful pressure tore Ye Changge's body apart.

As he possessed the indestructible golden body art, this was not a problem for him.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Changge arrived at the bottom of the vortex. In front of him was a towering palace.

The palace was supported by many huge red pillars. Each pillar was engraved with a revolving, lifelike golden dragon. It was exceptionally spectacular.

On both sides, there was a strange light. The exact source of the light was unknown, but it was completely transparent.

The eaves overlapped, and the doors were tightly shut.

The entire main hall emitted a powerful aura. The sharp sword intent enveloped the entire palace.

Frowning, Ye Changge carefully inspected it.

"Fortunately, the spells I obtained from the library have their own uses. They can break this array and open the main hall."

A majestic aura was emitted from Ye Changge's body. As his aura grew, his body also grew larger, and the clothes on his body also grew larger.

Ye Changge conjured a spell and shouted, "Lead! Follow the trail! Sword!"

Words followed the spell.

In the Myriad Swords Gate's Treasure Trove, several long swords of various shapes and sizes buzzed and emitted powerful sword qi, directly cutting through the wall of the treasure room.

The great array outside was vaporized, and six swords instantly streaked across the sky and disappeared.

The Myriad Swords Gate's alarm bells rang loudly. Many warning bells collided with each other, emitting sharp whistling sounds.

"Sword Emperor's treasured sword! What's going on! ?"

On the Myriad Swords Gate's various islands, experts with extremely high cultivation realms acted to intercept the flying swords.

However, the few sword Emperor's treasured swords that flew out were too fast, and all those who intercepted them were unable to return.

The same thing happened in the eastern region, in the central region, and in the southern border.

Even a sword that had been stuck in a floating cloud in the high sky that shot directly toward the west ocean.
