After an unknown amount of time, Fang Chen finally woke up. However, he discovered that he was in a dark space.
"Where is this?" Fang Chen asked in a low voice.
No one responded to him. The entire dark space was filled with an endless gloomy aura. Fang Chen stood quietly on the ground of the dark space, appearing particularly conspicuous.
Whoosh whoosh
A gust of wind blew past. Fang Chen felt that there was a gloomy atmosphere around him.
Suddenly, the ground began to tremble and a miserable shriek sounded. Just as Fang Chen was puzzled, an illusory figure suddenly appeared in front of Fang Chen.
The illusory figure didn't say anything and directly launched a fierce attack on Fang Chen.
"Water and Fire Sword Art."
Seeing this, Fang Chen didn't dare to be careless. He took out the Hidden Star Sword and displayed the sixth level of the Water and Fire Sword Art. A sword light instantly bombarded the illusory figure.
Bang bang bang
The more intense the battle with the illusory figure, the more shocked Fang Chen became. This was because he discovered that the sword art used by the illusory figure was the sword art of the Reverence Sword Sect.
"Could it be that he is the Sect Master of the Reverence Sword Sect?"
The following battle finally confirmed Fang Chen's guess. The illusory figure in front of him was indeed the Sect Master of the Reverence Sword Sect. He suppressed his cultivation and fiercely fought with Fang Chen.
After fighting for a full hour, Fang Chen's Hidden Star Sword pierced through the illusory figure. In the end, the illusory figure dissipated in the dark space.
After the illusory figure disappeared, a second illusory figure appeared.
In this way, Fang Chen continued to fight. Even if he was tired, he couldn't stop. If he didn't fight, he would be killed by the illusory figures.
After a day, Fang Chen was exhausted, but he still continued to fight.
Three days later, Fang Chen had already killed more than 30 illusory figures. At this time, he finally gained the upper hand.
Moreover, during the battle, Fang Chen discovered that the power in his body was gradually increasing.
Of course, Fang Chen didn't know that the reason for the increase in strength was because of the pitch-black ball of light.
One day, two days, three days, half a month, one month.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen had been in the dark space for a month. In this month, Fang Chen's cultivation had increased from the early stage of the fourth level of the Qi Hai realm to the mid stage, then to the late stage, and finally to the peak stage.
This made Fang Chen very excited. These illusory figures were fighting with him to help him digest the boundless energy he had absorbed.
Of course, the peak of the fourth level of the Qi Hai realm was not the end. Almost every Sect Leader had fought with Fang Chen. They all suppressed their cultivation and fought with Fang Chen.
Finally, on a certain day two months later, Fang Chen faced a figure that was even more powerful than the previous illusory figures.
Bang
This illusory figure just waved his hand and suppressed Fang Chen. This made Fang Chen very shocked.
"Fire and Water Sword Art Level Six."
Fang Chen displayed the sixth level of the Fire and Water Sword Art, but he still couldn't block the illusory figure's attack.
Puchi
The illusory figure flicked his wrist and a hand blade shot out. Fang Chen tried his best to block it, but in the end, he couldn't block it and was injured by the hand blade.
At the same time, the energy that Fang Chen had absorbed from the black ball of light was completely absorbed by Fang Chen's body.
Boom boom boom
At this time, Fang Chen's cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Qi Hai realm.
After the breakthrough, Fang Chen's strength increased tremendously. The sixth level of the Fire and Water Sword Art was displayed instantly. The wild sword light pierced towards the illusory figure.
Huala
At this moment, in Fang Chen's mind, countless sword lights flashed. In the next moment, Fang Chen waved his sword again.
The seventh level of the Fire and Water Sword Art.
After two months, Fang Chen had finally reached the seventh level of the Fire and Water Sword Art.
The seventh level of the Fire and Water Sword Art combined with the cultivation of the fifth level of the Qi Hai realm caused Fang Chen's strength to increase tremendously. With a thrust of his sword, he pierced through the illusory figure.
"I didn't expect that my Sword Sect would have such an excellent disciple."
The illusory figure left behind such a simple sentence before dispersing.
After the illusory figure disappeared, Fang Chen suddenly disappeared into the dark space.
Huala
Fang Chen suddenly opened his eyes and looked around. He was still in the tomb that he had entered. Everything that had happened in the past two months was like a dream.
"Was it a dream?"
Fang Chen thought to himself. He then checked his body and found that his cultivation had really reached the fifth level of the Qi Hai realm.
After that, Fang Chen displayed the Fire and Water Sword Art and found that it had also reached the seventh level. This made him very happy.
"It's not a dream." Fang Chen said softly.
"Could it be that because I absorbed the energy from the black ball of light, the previous Sect Leaders of the Sword Sect appeared in the form of illusory figures?" Fang Chen guessed in his heart.
However, after thinking for a while, Fang Chen could not figure out the reason. So, he stopped thinking about it. Anyway, he had achieved his goal of entering the ancestral land.
He had a breakthrough in his cultivation and the Fire and Water Sword Art. Now, he could challenge a warrior of the eighth level of the Qi Hai realm.
No, to be exact, he could easily defeat an early level Qi Hai warrior and challenge a mid level Qi Hai warrior.
In two months, his progress was so fast that even he himself felt it was unbelievable.
Finally, Fang Chen calmed himself down and prepared to leave.
At this moment, outside the ancestral land of the Sword Sect, Jian Wufeng and Tian Jianzi were anxious.
"It has been two months and Fang Chen has not made a single move. Could it be that he …" Tian Jianzi was halfway through his sentence when his face turned gloomy.
"Senior brother, Fang Chen's talent is outstanding. Plus, he has that demonic long sword. He will be fine." Jian Wufeng comforted his senior brother.
"In these two months, Luo Yu has not left. She has been waiting for Fang Chen to appear. I am guessing that there might be some conspiracy behind this." Tian Jianzi changed the topic and said softly.
"Who cares about the conspiracy? Let's wait for Fang Chen to come out first." Jian Wufeng said.
Just as the two were talking, the ancestral land suddenly shook and the palace door opened. Seeing this, Tian Jianzi used his technique and opened the Absolute Heaven Sword Formation.
In an instant, a figure flew out from the palace. Tian Jianzi closed the Absolute Heaven Sword Formation. Seeing that the person who came was Fang Chen, his heart was filled with excitement.
"Fang Chen, you finally came out." Tian Jianzi said.
"Fang Chen, how is the ancestral land?" Jian Wufeng asked anxiously.
Fang Chen nodded at the two and said, "Fortunately, I did not disappoint. The ancestral land is safe."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Tian Jianzi felt as if he was dreaming. The Yellow Spring Sect's remaining members in the ancestral land were extremely powerful. Even he could not deal with them, but they were actually dealt with by a junior.
"Are you alright?" Tian Jianzi asked.
"I'm fine." Fang Chen said.
Fang Chen had gained a lot in the two months he had spent in the ancestral land. But all of this was because of Ancestor Bronze. If it weren't for Ancestor Bronze, Fang Chen wouldn't have been able to cultivate in the ancestral land.
"As long as you're fine." Tian Jianzi chuckled.
Tian Jianzi asked about the situation in the ancestral land. After learning that the ancestral land was safe, Tian Jianzi closed the Absolute Heaven Sword Formation and personally went in to take a look.
When he came out, his face was filled with excitement. The ancestral land was indeed safe. The Yellow Spring Sect's remaining members were completely dead.
"Fang Chen, I really have to thank you this time," said Tian Jianzi.
"I'm the Sword Reverence Sect's Tian Jianzi. It's only natural," said Fang Chen.
"Fang Chen, you've helped the Sword Reverence Sect greatly this time. What do you want? Just tell me. As long as the Sword Reverence Sect has it, we'll give it to you." Tian Jianzi laughed heartily. He was in a very good mood.
Fang Chen said, "Sect Master, I want to see the Luo Family's branch head. I wonder if Sect Master can help me."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Tian Jianzi looked at Jian Wufeng and said, "Fang Chen, why do you want to see the Luo Family's branch head?"
"I'm looking for someone." Fang Chen said.
"That's too easy. After you went into seclusion, the Luo Family's branch head has already come to our Sword Reverence Sect more than ten times," said Tian Jianzi.
"Moreover, he's looking for you." Jian Wufeng added.
"Looking for me?" This time, it was Fang Chen's turn to be surprised.
