Hearing Fang Chen's words, Yu Long and Yu Hu's expressions changed. They wanted to say something, but stopped.
"I'll give you an hour. If you still don't see the sword source, you'll have to bear the consequences," said Fang Chen with a smile.
His face was full of smiles, as if he was talking to someone he knew.
But in Yu Long and Yu Hu's ears, it was incomparably horrifying.
"Fang Chen, we really don't have the sword source." Yu Long was helpless.
Actually, he didn't want to provoke this new disciple. If Ouyang Zhuge hadn't told them not to hand over the sword source, they would have already done so.
They would have already handed it over.
Who would want to provoke such a scourge?
"This doesn't seem to be under my jurisdiction anymore."
Fang Chen grinned and turned to leave.
He left behind a helpless Yu Long and Yu Hu.
"Big brother, what should we do?" asked Yu Hu.
"If we hand over the sword source, it'll be hard to explain to senior apprentice-brother Ouyang.
But if we don't hand it over, he'll definitely attack us. "Yu Long thought for a moment, then said," Let's go find senior apprentice-brother Ouyang. "
After that, the two of them quickly went to Ouyang Zhuge's residence.
Unfortunately, Ouyang Zhuge had entered seclusion a few minutes ago, so they hadn't seen him.
At this time, the two of them were finally a little anxious.
"What should we do? What should we do?" Yu Hu anxiously paced around.
"Senior apprentice-brother Ouyang is in seclusion. If Fang Chen comes in an hour, who'll help us block him?"
The two brothers were well aware of Fang Chen's strength and how powerful he was.
Although he was only ranked one hundred on the Tianhua Ranking, his combat strength was at least in the top eighty of the Tianhua Ranking.
The two brothers had joined hands, and even the strongest combination formation had been unable to block Fang Chen's attack.
Furthermore, he had defeated the two brothers with just one move.
Such terrifying combat strength was terrifying just thinking about it.
"Big brother, quickly think of something," said Yu Hu anxiously as he watched time pass.
Yu Long's eyes flickered, and a thought flashed in his mind. He suddenly thought of a countermeasure.
"Got it."
Yu Long's face was full of smiles. "Senior apprentice-brother Ouyang is in seclusion. It won't be long before he comes out. We can just hide in the Dragon Sword Tower."
"Dragon Sword Pagoda."
Hearing these three words, Yu Hu also laughed excitedly.
"Hahaha, why didn't I think of that? The Dragon Sword Pagoda is so dangerous. As long as we hide, even Fang Chen won't be able to find us.
When Senior Brother Ouyang comes out of seclusion, we won't have to fear him anymore. "
After saying that, the two brothers quickly arrived in front of the Dragon Sword Pagoda in the Sword Dao Faction area.
Then, he plunged into the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
The Dragon Sword Pagoda was a rather famous pagoda within the Sword Dao Sect.
This pagoda had been created by one of the elders of the Old Eastern Alliance. It was constantly absorbing the energy of the sword.
The Dragon Sword Pagoda was divided into nine levels. It was said that only ninth level Heavenly Body Tier cultivators could barely step into the ninth level.
Of course, it was just barely.
To this day, the Old Eastern Alliance had quite a few outstanding disciples at the ninth level of the Heavenly Body Tier.
No one was able to step into the ninth floor.
Inside the Dragon Sword Pagoda, the danger was too great. The slightest carelessness could cause one to lose their life.
Furthermore, only sword cultivators could challenge the tower.
Many disciples who joined the Sword Dao Sect didn't have the right to study the sword, so they chose to take a step back and enter the Dragon Sword Pagoda to cultivate.
The two brothers, Yu Long and Yu Hu, used a combination formation to quickly reach the seventh level of the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
This was already their limit.
If they wanted to go any further, it would be too difficult.
"Big Brother, you're so smart. On the seventh level, us two brothers used a combination formation and barely managed to hold on. I think that Fang Chen wouldn't dare come up here," Yu Hu said with a grin.
Time passed little by little.
In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
Fang Chen calculated the time. It was almost time.
His eyes looked out of his room, a trace of helplessness on his face.
"It looks like you've chosen Ouyang Zhuge in the end."
Fang Chen said softly, then got up and returned to the square.
Before long, Fang Chen had found out where Yu Long and Yu Hu had gone.
"Hiding in the Dragon Sword Pagoda?"
Fang Chen was taken aback when he heard this. Soon after, he walked straight towards the Dragon Sword Tower.
The Sword Dao Sect's territory was vast. It took a long time to reach the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
In front of the pagoda was a square.
This square was special, and the Dragon Sword Pagoda stood in the middle of it.
It was said that at the base of the pagoda there was a passage to the sword embryo. It could absorb the sword energy within and strengthen the pagoda.
So long as the sword embryo existed, the pagoda's power would never be weakened.
After a few days in the Ancient East, Fang Chen had learned a great deal.
He had some understanding of the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
"What a strange sword energy."
Fang Chen closed his eyes and carefully sensed the sword energy around the Dragon Sword Pagoda. It was strange.
But when he tried to use his spirit to investigate the pagoda, it bounced back.
"Sword embryo?"
Fang Chen muttered to himself.
There were a few disciples in front of the square.
Most of them weren't official disciples of the Sword Dao Sect. They could only be considered honorary disciples.
Honorary disciples didn't have the right to cultivate near the sword embryo, so there were a lot of them in front of the pagoda.
When they saw Fang Chen arrive, they all clasped their hands in greeting to Fang Chen.
From Fang Chen's attire they could see he was an official disciple.
"Dare I ask your name, brother? It seems I don't know you." One of the disciples laughed.
"Fang Chen."
"Brother Fang Chen, you must be new," the disciple continued.
Fang Chen nodded.
"I really envy brother Fang Chen. He just arrived and he's already an official disciple.
But I have some doubts. Official disciples can cultivate near the sword embryo. Why would brother Fang Chen come to the Dragon Sword Pagoda? "
It wasn't just this disciple who was puzzled. The other disciples were just as confused.
Logically speaking, official disciples wouldn't lower themselves to compete with them for the resources of the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
But recently, one official disciple after another had come to the Dragon Sword Pagoda. Just what was going on?
First it was the Yu brothers, Yu Long and Yu Hu. Now it was Fang Chen.
"I'm looking for someone." Fang Chen simply said.
"Oh, who is senior brother Fang Chen looking for?" asked a disciple.
Fang Chen didn't say anything. His burning gaze was focused on the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
"Could it be that the person senior brother Fang Chen is looking for is the Yu brothers?"
Some of the disciples began to discuss amongst themselves.
A moment later, their eyes were filled with excitement.
Perhaps there would be a wonderful battle waiting for them.
"Senior brother Fang Chen, you just arrived at the Sword Dao Sect. Perhaps you don't know much about the Dragon Sword Pagoda. Let me give you an introduction."
A nominal disciple came to Fang Chen's side and said.
Fang Chen didn't refuse and nodded.
Seeing this, the disciple was delighted. He continued. "The Dragon Sword Pagoda is called the Dragon Sword Pagoda because there are Sword Dragons within."
Sword Dragons were formed from the condensation of sword energy. They were very powerful.
"The Dragon Sword Pagoda is divided into nine levels. Every level requires one to kill a certain number of Sword Dragons to pass the test and proceed to the next level.
However, the number of Sword Dragons on each level is limited. There are a total of eighty-one Sword Dragons. If a cultivator can kill eighty-one Sword Dragons, they will obtain the Sword True Dragon's infusion, strengthening their body and tempering their Sword Qi, "the nominal disciple said slowly.
Fang Chen was shocked when he heard this.
He hadn't expected this little Dragon Sword Pagoda to have so many mysteries.
"Eighty-one Sword Dragons?" Fang Chen asked.
The disciple nodded, and continued. "Of all the swordsmen in the Old Eastern Alliance, only one has managed to reach the limit of each level. Even so, he's still stuck on the eighth level, unable to move on to the ninth."
"Who is it?"
"Sword Dance Hong."
Hearing this, Fang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
He hadn't expected Sword Dance Hong, third on the Tianhua Rankings, to be a Sword Cultivator.
"Actually, the Dragon Sword Pagoda has no real benefits for a disciple, other than challenging the limit of Sword Dragons.
As for challenging the limit of the Sword Dragon, very few people can do it, and it is a waste of time. Over time, almost no official disciples come here. "The nominal disciple explained.
Fang Chen nodded. "What's your name?"
"Kong Zhong."
"Not bad. If you have any questions in the future, you can come find me." Fang Chen finished speaking, and stepped into the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
In the square, Kong Zhong was stunned. He stood in place, stupefied.
Envious looks came from all around.
After a while, Kong Zhong recovered from his shock.
"Hahahaha!"
Kong Zhong was very excited. He hadn't expected to be recognized as an official disciple.
"Kong Zhong, you've really hit the jackpot."
"Congratulations, Kong Zhong. From now on, you'll have a meteoric rise."
It was very difficult for a disciple to become an official disciple.
But with the help of an official disciple, it would be much easier.
This was not the first case. Previously, some of the nominal disciples like Kong Zhong had now become official disciples.
"Kong Zhong, don't forget us after becoming an official disciple."
"That's right, Kong Zhong. Cultivate well."
Many disciples had already begun to befriend Kong Zhong.
As for Kong Zhong, he was forcefully suppressing the excitement in his heart as his gaze landed on the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
The path of martial arts depended on oneself.
External forces were ultimately limited.
Therefore, although Kong Zhong was very excited, he wouldn't become lazy because of this. Force.
"I must seize this opportunity and leap over the dragon gate." Kong Zhong clenched his fists tightly as he said in his heart.
Inside the Dragon Sword Pagoda.
Fang Chen arrived at the first floor.
"This is the Dragon Sword Pagoda."
Arriving here, Fang Chen could feel the beating of the golden heart.
Beneath the ground, there seemed to be an extremely vast sword Qi.
"It seems that there are secrets within this Dragon Sword Pagoda." Fang Chen thought to himself.
However, just as he was thinking, the golden Sword Dragon, carrying a terrifying aura, whizzed over.
"Sword Dragon!"
Seeing this, Fang Chen pulled out the Star Hidden Sword and used the Mysterious Sky Sealing Technique.
The golden Sword Dragon was instantly bound by the resplendent sword net. It revealed a sinister expression and continued to struggle.
"Disperse."
