Normally, those who could come to the God Corpse Abyss were at least Yang Essence Stage experts.
However, a half-step Yin Essence Stage cultivator came.
This surprised the sword beast.
"Although you are only a half-step Yin Essence Stage cultivator, you are stronger than an ordinary Yang Essence Stage cultivator. This shows your potential."
In the sword beast's heart, its master was the strongest existence.
Naturally, only experts were qualified to obtain the inheritance that its master left behind.
Fang Chen's potential surprised the sword beast as well.
Hence, the sword beast lowered its standards.
"I comprehended this move after watching Master casually swing his sword from afar. This move is strong enough to kill a peak Yin Essence Stage expert. You have to be careful," the sword beast warned.
"Be careful."
Fang Chen nodded and stared at the sword beast.
The Sword Beast's big claws grabbed the long sword on its back.
"Rip!"
The sword beast exerted force and pulled the sword out of its flesh. Drops of blood dripped to the ground.
"Boom!"
Under the control of the Sword Beast, the sword swung out gently. Fang Chen could clearly see the trajectory of the sword.
"What Sword Technique is this?"
Fang Chen's lips twitched. This Sword Technique did not pose any threat to him.
"The third sword of the Apocalypse Sword Technique."
Xiao Chen even felt that he could block it if he executed the Apocalypse Sword Technique.
However, when the Hidden Star Sword appeared in front of this long sword, it was actually imprisoned.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Fang Chen finally realized that something was wrong. He quickly swung his sword again.
"Heavenly Star Sword Technique!"
This was a Sword Technique that was even stronger than the Apocalypse Sword Technique. With just one strike, it caused layers of sword waves to appear in the air.
"Rumble …!"
The sword Qi waves surged in the air, firmly entangling the sword beast's sword.
"Crack!"
However, just as Fang Chen relaxed, the vast and mighty Sword Qi waves suddenly shattered. The longsword attacked with an unimaginable speed.
"How can this be?"
Fang Chen exclaimed as his figure instantly flickered.
However, the sword beast had already locked onto him. He had nowhere to run.
"What should I do?"
Fang Chen panicked, not knowing how to deal with this.
Boom!
The ninth level of the Ancient Annihilation Secret Technique was executed, and the power of the nine layers was applied to the Hidden Star Sword. The Heavenly Star Sword Art was executed once more.
In mid-air, a majestic Sword Qi that seemed to have existed for a long time instantly condensed. Under the control of Fang Chen, its aura skyrocketed and blocked the Sword Beast's long sword.
With the superposition of the Ancient Extermination Secret Technique, the might of the Heavenly Star Sword Art had more than doubled.
"Did you block it?"
In the air, the Hidden Star Sword and the sword beast's long sword collided with each other, and the void was momentarily still.
However, before he could finish speaking, Fang Chen was shocked to find that the Star Hidden Sword was actually broken.
Crack!
The Hidden Star Sword couldn't bear the heavy pressure and broke into two pieces.
Hu hu hu!
A terrifying Sword Qi was released from the wound, drowning the Sword Beast's sword.
A deafening sound reverberated throughout the entire tunnel.
After a long while, the passageway gradually came to a stop.
"Is it over?"
Fang Chen murmured.
Clang!
The broken Hidden Star Sword fell to the ground.
The fog dissipated, and the Sword Beast remained motionless, staring at Fang Chen with its gong-sized eyes.
There was a long sword on its back that was connected to its flesh.
Seeing this scene, Fang Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
He had almost exhausted all of his strength to barely block that sword attack.
This was only the first hurdle that he had encountered. He didn't dare to imagine how many dangers were waiting for him in the future.
Clap clap clap!
The Sword Beast clapped its hands and praised Fang Chen.
"I used my Origin Sword, and its power is comparable to the full force of a peak Yang Essence Stage expert, but you blocked it. You're really amazing."
After the exchange, the Sword Beast had a whole new level of respect for Fang Chen.
"You've only cultivated for a short period of time, but you have such heaven-defying achievements in the Sword Dao. It's no wonder that you can obtain two pieces of the broken sword."
The Sword Beast continued, "Since you can pass this hurdle, you won't return empty-handed. I hope you'll be lucky enough to obtain my master's inheritance."
As the Sword Beast finished speaking, it slowly disappeared into the dark passage.
The Sword Beast's words echoed in Fang Chen's mind.
"Continue forward?"
Fang Chen raised his eyebrows, adjusted his body slightly, and continued forward.
The battle with the Sword Beast also made Fang Chen deeply aware of his shortcomings.
"The Sword Technique that I comprehended after watching from afar has such tyrannical power?" Fang Chen was speechless. How strong was the Sword Beast's master?
It was too terrifying.
"The sword attack just now seemed simple, but it actually contained the strongest Sword Dao.
That sword attack could affect the surrounding time and space, and it could also suppress people with its power.
Most importantly, I was able to sense a terrifying Sword Dao that was superior to all Sword Daos in that sword move. "
"It seems that I still have a long way to go."
After a long time, Fang Chen sighed.
The Invincible Sword Dao that he created was considered a super Sword Dao in the Primordial Chaos.
But compared to the Sword Beast's Sword Dao, it was not worth mentioning.
"Although the Invincible Sword Dao is still very weak at the moment, it has the advantage of being malleable. As my strength increases, the Invincible Sword Dao will also continue to upgrade. I believe that one day, the Invincible Sword Dao will reach an extremely terrifying level."
At that time, he would be a true Sword Dao Grandmaster.
"Phew."
Taking a deep breath, Fang Chen put aside the image in his mind and continued forward.
After a long while, he came to the end of the passage.
It was bright outside, and in contrast, the passage was even darker.
"Hmm?"
A chessboard was placed alone at the exit.
To Fang Chen's surprise, the order of the chess pieces on the chessboard was exactly the same as the Dao Chessboard he had seen in the Thousand Pagoda.
"Dao Chessboard?"
He had completely deciphered the 108 moves of the Dao Chessboard a long time ago.
Before he left the Primordial Chaos, he had copied the Dao Chessboard into the Sacred Palace to test the potential of many sword cultivators.
"Why is the Dao Chessboard here?"
Fang Chen frowned and pondered.
"That's not right."
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he found something different.
"Although the Dao Gathering Chessboard here has a hundred and eight chess pieces, the positions of all three chess pieces overlap with one another."
Just as Fang Chen was pondering, the Dao Chessboard emitted a gentle light. Then, all the information about the Dao Chessboard appeared in Fang Chen's mind.
After reading it, Fang Chen was enlightened.
"I see."
The Dao Chessboard originated from the Battlefield of Godfall.
The Dao Chessboard in the Thousand Pagoda was the Small Dao Chessboard.
The Dao Chessboard in front of him was the Great Dao Chessboard.
The Great and Small Dao Chessboards were used to test the potential of martial artists in ancient times.
The Small Dao Chessboard had a total of 108 moves, and each move contained the mysterious supreme law.
The Great Dao Chessboard had a total of 36 moves, but they were more quintessential and contained the Great Dao of heaven and earth.
"I have to decipher the first six moves of the Dao Chessboard to leave the passage?"
