There was nothing in Hua Feng's interspatial ring. This made Fang Chen speechless. Hua Feng was at the third level of the Qi Hai realm, how could he be so poor?
Of course, what Fang Chen didn't know was that Hua Feng had used up all of his resources in order to break through to the fourth level of the Qi Hai realm.
After that, Fang Chen brought the four young masters of the Liang family to the center of the mysterious valley. The four young masters of the Liang family were now completely obedient to Fang Chen.
They knew that Fang Chen's strength was too strong. If they stayed with Fang Chen, they would at least encounter less danger.
"This valley is a bit special." Fang Chen was puzzled.
Just as Fang Chen was speaking, a greyish aura suddenly appeared around the mysterious valley. In the next moment, the entire mysterious valley was surrounded by this greyish aura.
"Not good, we've been trapped in a formation." Fang Chen immediately realized that they were trapped in a formation. His face was filled with anxiety.
Crash
This formation was extremely large. Surrounding the formation was an incomparably dense aura. This aura formed an extremely strong defense, trapping Fang Chen's group within.
"Could this also be a test?" Fang Chen was puzzled.
Just as Fang Chen's group of five was trapped in the array formation, the martialists in the other seven tunnels were also trapped in the array formation.
"Break this formation and you will be able to enter the Ultimate Tomb."
Suddenly, a voice descended from the sky. Countless cultivators heard it and their faces changed. At the beginning, they were still resisting, but now they directly sat down cross-legged and began to comprehend the formation.
"A mere formation won't be able to stop me." Within a certain formation, Qing Fufeng's face revealed a confident smile as he spoke.
At the same time, the other four geniuses were also very confident. They believed that they would be the first to break the formation.
And at this moment, Fang Chen was using the Fire and Water Sword Art to attack the formation.
Dong
Although the Water-Fire Sword Technique was powerful, its attacks did not cause any ripples within the array. This made Fang Chen give up on trying to break the array with brute force.
"Brother Fang, what should we do?" Liang Yi asked in a low voice. The other three also looked at Fang Chen, waiting for Fang Chen's answer.
Fang Chen pondered for a moment before saying, "This array formation should be a test. We have to break the array formation in the shortest time possible and enter the ultimate tomb."
"Alright."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, the four young masters of the Liang Family sat down cross-legged and began to comprehend the formation.
Fang Chen narrowed his eyes and glanced at the surrounding array. He sat cross-legged in the center of the array and closed his eyes slightly, using his heart to feel the operating rules of the array.
At this moment, the Little Mouse suddenly appeared on Fang Chen's shoulder and began to chirp incessantly.
Six hours later, a trace of displeasure appeared on Fang Chen's face. After six hours of comprehension, he felt that the array formation was extensive and profound. It was not something that could be broken in a short amount of time.
"Impossible. There must be a shortcut," thought Fang Chen. "Continue."
Fang Chen exclaimed inside before closing his eyes once more.
Fang Chen had some understanding of the array formation before, but it was not deep enough. Now that his cultivation realm had increased, his comprehension of the array formation had naturally deepened.
Just as Fang Chen was comprehending the array formation, the golden heart began to rapidly beat. In an instant, an invisible aura was emitted from the golden heart.
The Little Mouse seemed to have also noticed this aura. It chirped happily and continuously absorbed this invisible aura.
When this invisible aura entered Fang Chen's mind, Fang Chen suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an illusion.
Fang Chen stood in this illusion. Above his head, there were tens of thousands of long swords. These long swords contained extremely tyrannical Sword Qi.
"What a terrifying Sword Qi."
Fang Chen muttered in a low voice. Tens of thousands of long swords were suspended in the sky at the same time. How spectacular was this?
Just as Fang Chen's voice fell, the tens of thousands of long swords suddenly emitted a rumbling sound. In the next moment, the color of the entire sky changed.
Then, the tens of thousands of long swords fell like rain and heavily inserted themselves into the ground, surrounding Fang Chen in the center.
"This …"
Fang Chen witnessed all this with his own eyes. Suddenly, his mind became clear. This was because the order in which the tens of thousands of long swords were inserted into the ground seemed to contain a trace of mystery.
Moreover, when he looked up, he saw that the tens of thousands of long swords were inserted into the ground in a very good order. Seeing this scene, Fang Chen's mind was blown.
Then, Fang Chen instantly opened his eyes. He realized that it was an illusion.
"Illusion!"
Fang Chen's heart was in turmoil. He vaguely felt that the illusion just now had a trace of connection with the array formation in front of him.
Fang Chen tried hard to shake his head. In his mind, he could vaguely remember the tens of thousands of long swords that carried destructive Sword Qi and were inserted into the ground. That spectacular scene was something he would never forget for the rest of his life.
"The golden heart."
At this moment, Fang Chen thought of the golden heart again. Only the golden heart could have such a great ability.
The illusion just now must have been brought to him by the golden heart, allowing him to clearly see the trajectory of the tens of thousands of long swords.
As he thought of this, Fang Chen connected the trajectory of the tens of thousands of long swords with the large array formation in front of him. A majestic liquefied Spirit Qi appeared in his palm. Under Fang Chen's control, this Spirit Qi constantly flew to every corner of the array formation.
Crash!
In an instant, transparent nodes appeared around the array formation. Seeing this, Fang Chen was overjoyed.
"So that's how it is."
Although Fang Chen didn't have a thorough understanding of this array formation, at this moment, he discovered these nodes. He could completely rely on his own strength to break the large array formation.
Suddenly, Fang Chen stood up and took out the Hidden Dragon Sword. In the next moment, Fang Chen displayed the second level of the Water-Fire Sword Technique. Countless water-fire sword lights continuously shot towards every corner of the large array formation.
Rumble!
Following the attack of the water-fire sword lights, the nodes around the large array formation were shattered one after another. The large array formation was also constantly disintegrating under this wild attack.
"This …"
When the four young masters of the Liang Family saw this scene, they were shocked. Fang Chen was too heaven-defying. Not only was his martial talent so strong, but his talent in array formations was also heaven-defying.
In just six hours, they had no understanding of the large array formation. However, Fang Chen had already found a way to break the large array formation. This kind of talent was something that even the Five Great Prodigies would feel ashamed of.
"What a terrifying fellow."
The more time they spent with Fang Chen, the more the four young masters of the Liang Family realized that Fang Chen was unfathomable.
Boom!
When the last water-fire sword light blasted out, the last node of the large array formation was shattered. Immediately after, the array foundation and the core of the large array formation appeared in front of Fang Chen.
Bang!
Fang Chen easily shattered the array foundation and the core of the array formation, causing the large array formation to shatter.
The moment the large array formation shattered, Fang Chen's figure instantly disappeared from the valley. Seeing this, the four young masters of the Liang Family were puzzled.
"Where did Brother Fang go?" whispered Liang Yi.
"Could it be that Brother Fang was sent to the Ultimate Tomb?" asked Liang Er.
"That must be the case. It seems we've been eliminated." Liang San grinned.
"Brother Fang will definitely be able to obtain the inheritance of the Ultimate Tomb," said Liang Si solemnly.
With a flash of white light, Fang Chen discovered that his body had disappeared from the valley and appeared in a dimly lit palace.
This palace was surrounded by walls. Fang Chen also didn't know how he had appeared.
However, when Fang Chen saw the coffin at the very front, he was incomparably shocked.
"Could this be the true tomb of the Windcloud Martial Marquis?" Fang Chen was incomparably excited.
"You are the first person to enter my true tomb. I'll give you a chance to receive my inheritance."
All of a sudden, an illusory figure appeared above the coffin. The figure looked at Fang Chen and said, "Don't worry.
"You're the Windcloud Martial Marquis?" asked Fang Chen.
"Correct, I am the Windcloud Martial Marquis."
The Windcloud Martial Marquis in front of him was nothing more than a remnant will he had left behind before his death.
"After so many years, has someone finally found my tomb?" sighed the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
"Before I died, I intentionally left behind a trial. Whoever can pass the trial will be able to obtain my inheritance," continued the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
"May I ask what senior's trial is?" asked Fang Chen.
"The three trials outside are merely the most basic trials. Once you arrive here, you will receive the final trial. Once you pass, my inheritance will be yours," said the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
"This is the Windcloud Mantra. It has a total of nine levels. Cultivate it with the Windcloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture. The final trial is to comprehend the Windcloud Mantra."
"If you can comprehend the first seven levels of the Windcloud Mantra, you will pass the trial," continued the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
Fang Chen nodded. He didn't waste any more time and sat down on a praying mat in front of the coffin. Then he opened the Windcloud Mantra and began to read it.
Not long after, Fang Chen entered a state of cultivation.
After Fang Chen cultivated for two hours, Qing Mufeng entered the Ultimate Tomb.
"Hahaha, the Windcloud Martial Marquis's tomb will definitely be mine. I'll definitely be the first to enter," said Qing Fufeng loudly with a wild smile on his face.
Qing Fufeng stabilized himself and looked around. When he saw the coffin in front of him, he was overjoyed. He was even more certain that this was the true tomb of the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
But at this time, Fang Chen saw Fang Chen on the praying mat. His expression changed. "Why is he here? Could it be that he's the first to break the formation?"
Qing Fufeng shook his head. He didn't dare to believe this fact.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. That formation is extremely powerful. He's just a weak cultivator. How could he break it?"
