Fang Chen had obtained the broken black sword from the Gu family.
At that time, he had studied it for a long time, but he hadn't discovered any secrets.
Later, he had obtained a piece of it after a fierce battle with Lord Mo in the crack in the void.
The broken sword, which had been silent all this time, had actually made such a huge commotion.
Combined with the familiar aura that had entered his body and healed him, Fang Chen was certain that the aura had something to do with the broken black sword.
"What's going on?"
Fang Chen's heartbeat sped up, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
Dong dong dong!
Suddenly, the broken black sword struggled out of the Sumeru Ring and floated in the air.
At this moment, a vast amount of Sword Qi whizzed in from all directions and surrounded the black broken sword.
"What powerful sword Qi."
Fang Chen exclaimed, his eyes wide open.
Could it be that the expert who had died in the Abyss of God Corpses was a sword cultivator?
Otherwise, why would there be such vast sword Qi and be able to cause the broken black sword to resonate with it?
That must be it.
Under Fang Chen's gaze, the broken black sword suddenly swayed and slowly flew forward.
"Let's follow and see."
Fang Chen's figure flashed, and he followed closely behind the broken black sword.
In the blink of an eye, the broken black sword had arrived in front of the cliff.
Whoosh!
A terrifying sword-light shot out from the broken black sword and bombarded the cliff.
In the next moment, debris fell off the cliff, and a stone door appeared out of thin air.
Creak!
When the stone door appeared, Fang Chen's gaze also saw the scene inside the stone door.
"Should I go in?"
The pitch-black broken sword rushed into the stone door at an unparalleled speed, and then it disappeared.
Fang Chen was hesitating whether to enter the stone door or not.
He could imagine that there must be a great opportunity inside the stone door.
However, the greater the opportunity, the greater the danger that accompanied it.
Fang Chen was weighing whether this fortuitous opportunity was worth fighting for.
"According to Su Qi, the Abyss of God Corpses is a forbidden area for humans. Even experts at the peak of the Yang Yuan Stage wouldn't dare to enter."
Fang Chen muttered to himself.
"Even if the Corpse Head Old Ghost dominates the Corpse Head Continent, he doesn't dare to touch the Abyss of God Corpses. This is enough to prove how dangerous the Abyss of God Corpses is."
However, he was hit by Old Ghoul Corpse's top-tier saint treasure and was heavily injured. Moreover, he was blasted into the abyss of god corpses.
If it was an ordinary martial artist, even if they were not killed by the White Bone Poisonous Dragon Trident, they would still die from falling into the abyss.
However, not only did Fang Chen survive, but his injuries were also healed by the pitch-black broken sword. In fact, he had even completely recovered.
Therefore, Fang Chen was certain that the broken black sword was closely related to the Abyss of God Corpses.
"Since you're here, why not give it a try?"
After pondering for a long time, Fang Chen made an important decision.
Thud thud thud!
He slowly pushed open the stone door and entered.
Boom!
The moment he stepped through the stone door, it slammed shut and disappeared.
Fang Chen turned around abruptly, and what entered his eyes was a complete cliff.
"Hmm?"
Although he was full of doubts, Fang Chen forced himself to calm down.
Thud thud thud!
At this moment …
Fang Chen felt the earth tremble and the mountains shake. A loud tremor came from the pitch-black tunnel that seemed to have no end.
"What's that sound?"
Fang Chen's keen sense of smell immediately detected the danger.
However, by the time he reacted, it was already too late.
In the dark tunnel not far away, a huge black bear appeared.
"It's very strong."
Fang Chen could feel the terrifying aura coming from the black bear. It was not much weaker than Old Ghoul Corpse's.
Roar!
The black bear roared at the sky, and the sound of a sword came out of its mouth.
Fang Chen widened his eyes in surprise.
"This …"
His eyes were like lightning as he carefully sized up the black bear. Only then did he notice that there was a long sword connected to flesh on the black bear's back.
"Could it be …"
Fang Chen exclaimed.
"A legendary sword beast?"
As a Sword Cultivator, he naturally knew what a sword beast was.
Sword beasts, as the name suggested, were demonic beasts born from Sword Principle.
The world was big and full of strange things.
As the times changed and the environment changed, generation after generation of experts were born.
In an era so long ago that it was impossible to investigate, a Sword Principle genius used his own Sword Principle to breed a demonic beast. When the demonic beast completely absorbed the Sword Principle aura, the Sword Principle bloodline would flow in its blood, and its own blood essence would condense into a long sword.
This kind of demonic beast, like humans, could cultivate Sword Principle, so it was called a sword beast.
Once it became a sword beast, it would undergo a fundamental transformation.
Before this, Fang Chen had only seen records of sword beasts in unofficial history. He did not expect to encounter one at this moment.
"This sword beast's strength is probably at the early stage of Yang Essence Stage."
Fang Chen murmured.
"Human."
The sword beast suddenly spoke. "You dare to break into my master's tomb. Only death awaits you. However, since you have the broken sword, I can give you a chance."
The sword beast stretched out its big paw and pointed at itself. "Defeat me and you can pass through this passage.
You only have three chances. If you fail, I will kill you with my own hands. "
Hearing this, Fang Chen's expression changed.
He must seize the three chances.
"Take this."
The sword beast growled. Its huge body was like an arrow released from a bow. Its speed was extremely fast, and it rushed to Fang Chen in the blink of an eye.
Boom!
Its big paw directly grabbed at Fang Chen's head.
It was simple and violent, without any fancy moves.
"Heavenly Star Sword Principle."
Feeling the strong pressure, Fang Chen performed the Heavenly Star Sword Principle.
Whoosh!
The Star Hidden Sword shook, and a violent sword light quickly rushed out, colliding with the sword beast's big paw.
Dong!
The two collided, and an incredible force erupted, causing the whole passage to tremble.
"Human, your sword skills are good."
The sword beast's voice rang out.
"Before you, there were others who came here, wanting to obtain my master's inheritance. However, their foundations in the Sword Dao were too weak, and their sword skills were full of flaws. They could not even block one of my attacks."
After saying this, the sword beast looked at Fang Chen with a smile.
"You obtained the two broken swords, but your cultivation is only at the half-step Yin Essence Stage. Hence, I lowered the standard."
The sword beast said, "As long as you can receive my next move, you pass."
The standard for passing through the passage was based on the cultivator's cultivation.
Fang Chen's true cultivation was only at the half-step Yin Essence Stage. Hence, he gained a significant advantage.
Fang Chen stared at the black bear.
"It truly lives up to being a sword beast. Its understanding of the Sword Dao is so strong. If it were in the Ancient Primal Chaos, it could be considered the top sword cultivator."
Fang Chen muttered.
