Golden Crown Country, central region, nine cities.
Every city had its own unique history. Because of this unique history, countless martialists would remember these cities.
Sword State City, among the nine cities, was the only city that was famous for its sword. In the central region of the Golden Crown Country, whenever someone mentioned Sword State City, they would unconsciously think of sword cultivators.
Sword State City was the central region, and even the entire Golden Crown Country's holy land for sword cultivators. There was a saying, "A sword cultivator who has never been to Sword State City is not a true sword cultivator."
Therefore, warriors who wanted to become a true sword cultivator would travel thousands of miles to Sword State City to seek their own opportunities.
Sword State City's sword cultivator Sect was the Worshipping Sword Sect.
The Worshipping Sword Sect was one of the nine two-star sects in the central region. It was the holy land that all sword cultivators dreamed of.
Speaking of Sword State City, many warriors would definitely think of the Sword Range that had existed for countless years in Sword State City.
The Sword Range was a very special mountain range. This mountain range, if looked down from above, looked like a long sword lying quietly on the ground of Sword State City.
There were many origins of the Sword Range. Until now, no one had been able to find out the true origin of the Sword Range. Because of this, the Sword Range was even more mysterious.
Three days ago, the strange movement of the Sword Range had shaken the entire Sword State City. Countless forces were paying attention to the Sword Range's situation.
Today was the most important day in Sword State City, because there was a gap in the Sword Range's defense mechanism. This gap allowed warriors below the seventh level of the Qi Hai Realm to enter.
Although it was not enough for everyone to enter, it was enough.
Many forces were rolling up their sleeves and sending their sixth level Qi Hai Realm warriors into the Sword Range.
Fang Chen, a nobody in the Golden Crown Nation, had relied on his own hard work to get to where he was now, step by step.
When he first arrived in Sword State City, he easily joined the Worshipping Sword Sect. He even performed outstandingly in the Outer Sect.
Although Fang Chen's cultivation was only at the peak of the third level of the Qi Hai Realm, no one dared to doubt his strength.
This time, the Sword Reverence Sect had sent many warriors into the sword range. Among them, Fang Chen could only be considered an ordinary warrior.
As soon as he entered the sword range, Fang Chen felt a biting cold sword intent rushing towards him.
"What a powerful sword intent."
Fang Chen's heart skipped a beat. If this Sword Will had the intention to kill them, they would not have been able to escape.
"Is this the inner area of the sword range?"
The Sword Range was divided into the inner and outer regions. Over the years, the major forces of the Sword State City had already finished exploring the outer regions of the Sword Range.
Some of the supreme treasures in the periphery had also been excavated by the major forces. As for the inner area of the sword range, no one could enter it.
No, to be exact, ordinary people were unable to enter at all. However, there were always some monstrous geniuses who were able to enter.
It was said that ten years ago, a young genius had entered the inner area of the sword range. This matter had shaken the entire Sword Continent City.
After that young warrior had come out of the sword range, his sword intent had undergone a great change. Since then, his strength had continuously increased.
Everyone was extremely shocked. They were even more convinced that the inner area of the sword range must have extraordinary opportunities.
Over the years, the major forces of the Sword State City had been constantly searching for a way to enter the inner area of the sword range. However, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they still could not figure out how to enter the sword range.
Because of this, the major forces of the Sword State City, led by the Sword Reverence Sect, had personally invited some experts on the Martial Marquis List to observe the inner area of the sword range.
However, it was still to no avail.
Even the experts on the Martial Marquis List were unable to find a way to enter the inner area of the sword range. They had also tried to forcibly break through the restriction, but this method was simply not feasible.
This time, there was a gap in the restriction. This was the first time in the history of the sword range that something like this had happened. Therefore, when the major forces of the Sword State City received this news, they went crazy.
On the spacious ground, there were countless long swords standing in a forest. These long swords were surrounded by an extremely majestic aura.
"This is the Sword Forest."
Fang Chen looked at the spacious ground in front of him. His heart was filled with shock.
At this moment, there were many young warriors beside Fang Chen. These warriors were disciples of the Sword Reverence Sect, and there were also disciples from other Sects.
However, due to the gap in the sword range's restriction, they had all scattered.
The disciples of the Sword Reverence Sect who were with Fang Chen were generally weaker than Fang Chen. Therefore, after they had recognized their surroundings, they directly followed Fang Chen as their leader.
"Sword Forest, it's actually the Sword Forest." Suddenly, a disciple shouted.
Fang Chen had also seen the Sword Forest before. He had even entered the Sword Forest. However, that Sword Forest could not be compared to the Sword Forest in front of him.
"The legend is indeed true. Hahaha."
Suddenly, a man in azure clothes revealed a wild smile. Looking at the Sword Forest in front of him, his eyes were incomparably hot.
"What legend?" The other disciples asked.
"A long time ago, some experts of the older generation in Sword Prefecture City once said that someone had entered the inner area of the sword range. It is said that there are natural Sword Forests in the inner area of the sword range. Within the Sword Forest, there are countless peerless swords. If you can communicate with one of the peerless swords, it will recognize you as its master." The man in azure clothes continued.
"Moreover, the lowest grade of these peerless swords is a supreme origin grade weapon." The man in azure clothes continued.
Hearing this news, the crowd was in an uproar. Their eyes were incomparably hot. They had not expected to encounter the legendary Sword Forest as soon as they entered the inner area of the sword range.
"Could it be that there is more than one Sword Forest in the inner area of the sword range?" Fang Chen asked.
There was a vigorous aura around the Sword Forest. At a glance, it was clear that there was an extremely complex formation in the Sword Forest.
"If you want to communicate with the peerless swords, you must enter the Sword Forest.
However, if you recklessly enter the Sword Forest, not only will you not be able to enter, you will also be devoured by the Sword Forest. "
"The only way to enter the Sword Forest is to follow the rules of the peerless formation in the Sword Forest."
Hearing this, the crowd curled their lips. The formation in the Sword Forest was too powerful. They could not see through the essence of the formation. How could they enter the Sword Forest?
"It is not easy to encounter the Sword Forest. How can I let go of such a great opportunity?"
As soon as the green-robed man finished speaking, a tall and sturdy man suddenly shouted loudly.
In the next moment, the burly man's body flashed and he directly stepped into the Sword Forest.
It was obvious that the burly man did not follow any rules at all. He was simply rampaging.
All the martialists stared at the burly man. They wanted to see if this method would work.
"Haha, the peerless swords are mine."
The burly man entered the Sword Forest. Although he felt a great pressure, he still moved forward quickly. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the nearest peerless sword.
"Rumors are just rumors."
The burly man stretched out his hand and grabbed the peerless sword in front of him.
Buzz!
In an instant, the peerless sword buzzed. Then, the entire Sword Forest emitted a strange sound.
Seeing this scene, many cultivators widened their eyes in disbelief.
"Could he really succeed?"
"Could it be that the legends passed down by the older generation are false? There is no formation here at all?" Many disciples could not wait to enter the Sword Forest.
Only Fang Chen frowned and showed a trace of doubt on his face.
Boom!
Fang Chen felt that something wasn't right, but he wasn't sure what it was. Just as he was pondering, a deafening voice suddenly entered his ears.
In the Sword Forest, thousands of swords were trembling. The peerless sword in the burly man's hand buzzed.
In the next moment, the burly man did not even have the chance to speak. He was directly sent flying by the peerless sword.
Crack!
The burly man's body exploded in front of everyone's eyes. Blood spurted out.
"This …"
Many warriors who were preparing to enter the Sword Forest stopped in their tracks. In their eyes, there was a trace of fear.
After the burly man was sent flying, the peerless sword calmed down again. The thousands of swords in the Sword Forest also calmed down. At this moment, the entire Sword Forest was extremely strange.
"This Sword Forest is full of evil."
Fang Chen frowned and thought to himself.
The burly man's cultivation was at the peak of the fifth level of the Qi Hai realm. Although he was not the strongest among the disciples, he was directly sent flying by the Sword Forest. He did not even have the chance to dodge before he lost his life. It was too scary.
"To enter the Sword Forest, one must find this peerless formation. Or else, death is certain." Fang Chen came to this conclusion.
"Oh my god, so the legend is true. Damn it, I almost went in."
"The Sword Forest's reflection is too strong. A peak fifth level Qi Hai warrior was instantly killed."
"Damn it, the Sword Forest is right in front of us, but we can't enter."
Many of the cultivators were discussing amongst themselves. Some of them were even cursing and swearing.
"Senior Fang, what should we do next?" The Reverence Sword Sect disciple beside Fang Chen asked softly.
"Wait."
Fang Chen only said this one word. Because the Sword Forest was too strange, before he understood the formation, he did not dare to rashly enter.
Buzz
In the Sword Forest, thousands of swords were quietly inserted into the ground. There was a peerless formation around them. In the sky above the Sword Forest, there was also a majestic sword intent.
"What is in the Sword Forest?"
Fang Chen squinted his eyes. His soul was constantly approaching the Sword Forest. But before he reached the edge of the Sword Forest, he could not advance any further.
This time, the warriors who entered the Sword Forest were mostly at the fifth or sixth level of the Qi Hai realm. With the strength of these warriors, it was impossible for them to completely understand the formation.
