Chapter 680 - 356: Mountain and Sea Great Wilderness Scripture·Desolate Scripture?

Chu Ming knew this was just the surface of the Seventh Sword Tomb. Once he steps into the real range of the sword tomb, the Dubhe Sword Tomb will reveal its true terror.

The Sword Gourd Spirit dispersed, probing into the sword tomb.

Three meters, ten meters, thirty meters...

The exploration range could only extend up to fifty meters. This sword tomb suppresses Primordial Consciousness, sensing, and other probing methods even more severely, reducing it by half compared to the previous six sword tombs.

However, fifty meters is enough.

The usual rule, let Xing Man wait outside, while Chu Ming, holding the Seven-Star Divine Sword and the Celestial Cyan Lock Chain, steps into the sword tomb.

Swoosh——

It seemed like passing through a membrane, and the scenery before him changed once again.

A gigantic curtain of light enveloped the sky, star patterns intertwined, sacred and serene.

Looking down, the calm lake water was like a mirror. With a step, ripples began to spread.

Whoosh...

In the distance, there was a sound of something breaking through the air, not sharp, yet incredibly clear.

Everything gave off a feeling of peace and safety.

But in the next moment, accompanied by Chu Ming’s slash of his sword,

the empty spot ahead suddenly exploded.

Boom——

After the explosion, something seemed to flee like a shadow.

Chu Ming’s brow furrowed slightly, as he stared ahead while the Book and Painting Realm spread to a five-meter radius around him.

Just now, he sensed something approaching rapidly, which is why he slashed his sword.

In the naked eye’s view, it was untraceable, and the sensing of the Sword Gourd Spirit was extremely faint. It was only upon entering the Book and Painting Realm’s range that he could truly lock onto its trajectory.

Boom——

Again, he swung the Heaven-Opening Sword towards the back left, yet all he saw was a shadow slipping by, unable to sever it.

A trace of gravity appeared on Chu Ming’s face.

For something that could withstand his two attacks unharmed, it was most likely the test of the Seventh Sword Tomb—the Dubhe Sword Soul!

The Dubhe Sword Soul had no physical form, no shadow or trace, invisible to the naked eye.

Furthermore, this place suppresses Primordial Consciousness and the Power of Sensing, making facing the Dubhe Sword Soul like being blind.

According to Xing Man, Han Court passed this sword tomb by using himself as bait to attract the Dubhe Sword Soul’s attack while locking its position and then counterattacking the sword soul.

It’s almost a strategy of mutual harm to overcome this challenge.

Fortunately, Chu Ming has the Sword Gourd Spirit and the Book and Painting Realm as two major auxiliary methods, allowing him to barely retort before the Dubhe Sword Soul’s attack.

But, this thing is harder than expected.

The previous two sword strikes weren’t full force, but with enough power to destroy an early Seventh Realm expert like Xing Man, yet they couldn’t even leave a mark on the Dubhe Sword Soul.

"Looks like I’ll have to use the True Intent Divine Techniques."

Adjusting his steps, he continued on.

After three steps.

"Here it comes!"

Chu Ming’s gaze suddenly flashed with Condensing Light, and the Seven-Star Divine Sword in his hand fiercely pierced out.

True Intent Divine Technique—Seven Stars of Destruction!

In an instant, seven stars lit up the sky, connecting into a sword.

Boom——

A deafening explosion sounded in the right front.

The sword might didn’t dissipate; amid the aftermath, a dazzling long sword counter-pierced towards him.

Chu Ming had anticipated this, swinging the Seven-Star Divine Sword ahead of time.

Clang——

The collision of two forces instantly unleashed violent energy.

And finally, in this instant, Chu Ming saw the so-called Dubhe Sword Soul.

The Dubhe Sword Soul, a massive divine sword engraved with seven stars, with the seventh Dubhe Star shining particularly bright and dazzling.

But its body merely appeared for a fleeting moment before vanishing again.

However, a trace of a smile flashed across Chu Ming’s face.

Before the Dubhe Sword Soul disappeared, he clearly caught sight of cracks forming on the sword soul’s body.

Which means, the power of the True Intent Divine Technique ’Seven Stars of Destruction’ is quite effective, as it damaged the Dubhe Sword Soul.

If it can be wounded, it can be dealt with.

Chu Ming continued moving forward, waiting for the Dubhe Sword Soul’s next assault.

However, this time he stepped out ten full paces, and the Dubhe Sword Soul did not reappear.

Could it be afraid and fled...

The Sword Gourd Spirit’s fifty-meter range also couldn’t detect the sword soul.

After taking more than ten more steps, there was still no sign of the sword soul attacking.

Just as Chu Ming thought that the sword soul had indeed fled, there seemed to be a spatial fluctuation in the left rear.

Without a second thought, the Dubhe Sword Soul was coming!

True Intent Divine Technique—Seven Stars of Destruction!

At the same time, to prevent the Dubhe Sword Soul from escaping again, the Celestial Cyan Chain instantly expanded, transforming into a massive net to cover the Dubhe Sword Soul.

Boom——

The Seven Stars of Destruction hit the target directly, revealing the sword soul’s body.

Chu Ming’s eyes narrowed slightly.

This time, the attacking sword soul only had the crack from his last slash, without any marks from the previous encounter.

This situation generally has two possible reasons.

First, the attacking sword soul this time is not the same as the last one.

Second, the same sword soul attacked both times, but while he walked those twenty paces, the sword soul repaired its cracks.

"If it’s the second reason, then I definitely can’t let you escape!"

Chu Ming let out a low shout as the Celestial Cyan Chain Net came crashing down, trapping the Dubhe Sword Soul trying to flee.

The Dubhe Sword Soul resembled a fierce colossal creature, violently ramming into the Celestial Cyan Chain Net.

Clang, clang, clang——

The instantaneous impact almost strained the Celestial Cyan Chain, which could barely be considered an Innate Spiritual Treasure, causing it to form cracks.

One more impact, and the Celestial Cyan Chain might shatter.

Chu Ming’s face changed slightly as he hurriedly activated the True Intent Divine Technique again.

Seven Stars of Destruction!

The divine sword formed by the dazzling seven stars struck the sword soul.

Boom——

Accompanied by the explosion, more cracks appeared on the Dubhe Sword Soul’s body, yet it continued to rage against the Celestial Cyan Chain Net.

Chu Ming didn’t stop, releasing three more consecutive sword strikes.

After the final strike, the Dubhe Sword Soul finally couldn’t withstand it, as the cracks rapidly spread across the entire sword body, and dazzling golden light squeezed out from the cracks.
