Chapter 670: Seventh Realm Servant_3

The body of the Sword Puppet is forged from unknown metal, even though it’s broken, its weight remains astonishing, roughly estimated at three to five hundred pounds.

However, its hardness is average, the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm should be able to destroy it.

Peeling away the outer layer of silver metal reveals extremely complex inscription circuits inside, intertwined like the veins inside the human body.

The core attracted Chu Ming’s attention, located at the position of the chest.

“Master, this item is the condensed Sword Intent and the energy core of these Sword Puppets, but the Sword Intent core is extremely violent and chaotic, almost unusable.”

“Furthermore, these Sword Puppets cannot be truly destroyed; after some time, they will regroup and recover in the Sword Tomb.”

“It can be said that killing the outer Sword Puppets yields no benefits and entails significant risk; it’s laborious and unrewarding.”

Xing Man followed, saying, “Precisely because of this, every time entering the Sword Tomb, the Seven-Star Kingdom sends a Middle Stage of the Qi Sea Realm practitioner to directly fly over the outer regions.”

Chu Ming looked at the remains of the Sword Puppet and the chaotic Sword Intent core silently.

The material of the remains is quite heavy, but its defense is average and cannot be considered a treasure. The Sword Intent core is equally chaotic, with low usability.

At least from the current investigation, no special features have been found.

However, since they’ve been destroyed, let’s keep them conveniently.

With a sweep of his large sleeves, Chu Ming collected all the remains and cores of the six hundred seventy-seven Sword Puppets into the Storage Space.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes.” Xing Man respectfully followed, pointing to the seven tombs like mountain peaks, “Master, the Sword Spirits that Han Court extracted are in the deepest part of the Sword Abyss, to reach the Sword Abyss, one must first pass through the Seven Great Sword Tombs.”

“The first is Shaking Light Sword Tomb, the second is Kaiyang Sword Tomb, the third is Jade Balance Sword Tomb…”

“The sixth is Merak Sword Tomb, the seventh, and also the most terrifying, is Dubhe Sword Tomb.”

The seven Sword Tombs are arranged according to the Seven Stars, with increasing levels of danger.

The first two Sword Tombs can be passed with the Late Stage to Perfection of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm, aided by treasures and some luck.

The third and fourth Sword Tombs require the Late Stage to Perfection of the Qi Sea Realm.

The fifth requires the Seventh Realm Returning to the Origin Realm, Xing Man stopped at this one.

Han Court passed through the sixth a hundred years ago but was blocked by the seventh Sword Tomb for a century.

Xing Man’s two Seven-Star Divine Swords, one weaker, was forged at the fifth Sword Tomb, and the stronger one was given by Han Court.

“Passing through the seventh Sword Tomb will allow the Seven-Star Divine Sword to gain Sword Intent to elevate to a Second-class Innate Spiritual Treasure and earn recognition, granting the qualification to enter the Sword Abyss.”

“It’s rumored that inside the Sword Abyss, Sword Spirits are hidden, once acquired, the Seven-Star Divine Sword can transform into a First-class Innate Spiritual Treasure!”

“…”

As Xing Man spoke, Chu Ming had already flown to the sky above the first Sword Tomb.

[Sword Gourd Spirit] covered it but met resistance similar to the underground rebounding force of the Seven Stars Country Imperial City’s seven Star Halls.

Although the Seven Great Sword Tombs are visible, they can’t be directly skipped; only by passing the first can the entrance to the second be opened.

He had just tried flying past the first few Sword Tombs directly into the depths, but no matter how he flew, he was still airborne above the first Sword Tomb.

“Go down.”

The two transformed into flowing light and fell to the Shaking Light Sword Tomb below.

Outside the Sword Tomb, a mist of stars pervades, while inside is surrounded by Sword Qi, with golden Sword Qi visible everywhere.

“Master, inside Shaking Light Sword Tomb, there are all golden Sword Puppets comparable to the Late Stage of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm, let me clear the path.”

Xing Man took the lead, wielding the Divine Sword and charged forward.

Boom——

Subsequently, as if triggering a mechanism, golden light overflowed ahead, and countless golden Sword Qi slashed forth.

Xing Man forged ahead, wielding the Seven-Star Divine Sword, effortlessly dispersing all the Sword Qi.

Behind the Sword Qi, over a thousand golden Sword Puppets, similar to the previous outer ones, surrounded and attacked.

Chu Ming remained unneeded as Xing Man easily crushed these obstructing Sword Puppets.

Moreover, Xing Man sliced several Seven-Star Kingdom Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm individuals attempting this Sword Tomb.

“Master, please.”

The first Sword Tomb, Shaking Light Sword Tomb, the thousand golden Sword Puppets’ trial passed, entrance opened.

Entering therein, the scenery suddenly changed, the initial golden faded, replaced by green, looking across, it was as if entering an ancient forest with giant hundred-meter trees sprawling ahead.

“Master, the second Sword Tomb, Kaiyang Sword Tomb,” Xing Man pointed to those giant trees, “the trial consists of Sword Puppets that seem like giant trees.”

As he spoke, originally the branches on the trees suddenly transformed into numerous green longswords, following the appearance of dense green Sword Qi across the Sword Tomb space.

In the depths of Sword Wood, ten Perfection Powerhouses from the Seven-Star Kingdom were attempting to collect Sword Qi.

Thud——

Two were inattentive, pierced by Sword Qi from transformed branches, their bodies seized by the giant trees, becoming nourishment for this Sword Tomb.

However, these seemingly dreadful Sword Qi posed no significant obstacle to Chu Ming and Xing Man.

Without spending much time, the entrance opened, and the two stepped into the third Sword Tomb.

“Jade Balance Sword Tomb, the entrance to the fourth Sword Tomb lies ahead at the thousand feet high peak; the peak exerts severe suppression, preventing martial artists and Primordial Qi Warriors from flying, requiring a climb up the Sword Cliff formed from countless Sword Qi.”

Chu Ming looked upward, indeed seeing a cliff with earth-colored Sword Aura flashing, surrounded by countless Sword Qi.

Xing Man moved forward and respectfully presented a map: “Master, climbing according to this route is safest.”

Saying so, she climbed first.
