The descendants of the primitive tribes stood in front of the Stone Forest, staring at Fang Chen with their dark eyes. They were shocked that someone was comprehending such a powerful sword formation.
Who was this person? Why was he here?
"This sword formation is very powerful."
Old Lin took a deep breath and said after a careful test. Based on his initial estimation, if the sword formation was fully activated, even a Sage might not be able to withstand it.
Old Lin even suspected that this formation was the work of a Supreme-Being.
"Could it be …" Old Lin's face suddenly changed. If this formation was really the work of a Supreme-Being, then who was the martial artist in the sword formation?
A Supreme-Being?
Or a descendant of a Supreme-Being?
"It can't be a Supreme-Being."
Someone shook his head and denied Old Lin's guess. What a joke. The Supreme-Being almost died in that fierce battle. If a new Supreme-Being was born, how could the primitive tribes not know?
"Then, could he be a descendant of a Supreme-Being?" Someone else asked.
"Maybe it's a cultivator who accidentally broke into the sword array?"
Everyone was making wild guesses. Old Lin suddenly had a bold idea. "If we can get the inheritance of the sword formation, can we leave the broken space and return to our tribe?"
Returning to the tribe was something that the descendants of the tribe yearned for day and night.
Although they were the descendants of the primitive tribes, no one recognized them in the broken space.
Only when they were strong could they be recognized by all forces. Once they got the inheritance of a Supreme-Being, they could return to their tribe with their heads held high.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of passion.
"Since that guy can enter, there must be a loophole."
Old Lin's face was full of excitement. He started to study the sword formation to see if there were any weak points or gaps.
"Let's look for it together."
Soon, everyone from the primitive tribes went to look for the entrance of the sword formation.
At this moment, the young master of the fog, who was hiding in the dark, sneered. "A bunch of idiots. How dare they call themselves the descendants of the primitive tribes. How pathetic. They can't even enter the Stone Forest."
Obviously.
The young master of the fog had been hiding here for countless years. He knew the Stone Forest very well and could easily enter and exit the sword formation. However, the descendants of the primitive tribes were different. It was their first time encountering such a powerful sword formation, and none of them were good at swordsmanship.
Moreover, they thought that this was a Supreme-Being sword formation, so it must be extraordinary. Their thoughts were a little extreme.
"Young Master."
The Saint from the Devouring Demon Clan said, "It won't be long before they find the entrance. However, even if they enter the Stone Forest, they might not be able to open the Sword Matrix."
"Keep an eye on them. Inform me as soon as they enter the Stone Forest," said the young master of the fog. "Send out an order for all of our people to prepare for battle."
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
For the Five Elements Saint Realm experts, three years was just the blink of an eye.
Some of the old monsters had been cultivating for billions of years.
During this period of time, the Death Cliff had been filled with undercurrents. Before the Ghost Artifact was born, the news had already spread like wildfire. Naturally, the Sword Lunatic and the Demonic Beast Patriarchs had also received the news.
Bang!
Sword Lunatic stabbed his sword into the ground and grabbed Princess Huang's neck. His killing intent surged, "Our patience is limited. I'll give you one last chance. If you tell us how to control the token, we can leave you with a complete corpse."
"Hmph." Princess Huang snorted coldly, directly ignoring Sword Lunatic.
In these three years, they had used all kinds of methods to force her, but she didn't give in.
As long as the token was in her hand, they wouldn't dare to touch her.
"You're courting death …" Sword Lunatic tightened his grip. Princess Huang felt her breathing quicken, her throat hurt, and her body was weak.
At this moment, the Demonic Beast Patriarchs arrived in time, "Stop."
He stopped Sword Lunatic and said, "Take her away."
"Done?" Sword Lunatic's eyes lit up when he heard this. He hurriedly asked.
The Demonic Beast Patriarchs nodded. Sword Lunatic released his grip and brought Princess Huang to a canyon.
This canyon was very quiet and the surroundings were completely sealed. There was a black cauldron in the middle of the canyon. The Demonic Beast Patriarchs formed seals with both hands, awakening the power within the black cauldron. Sword Lunatic threw Princess Huang in front of the black cauldron.
"I've said before that my clan has a soul searching technique."
The Demonic Beast Patriarchs said eerily, "If you don't cooperate, then I can only use the soul searching technique."
Before this, they didn't dare to use the soul searching technique casually because they were afraid of the primitive races. After all, they didn't know what the primitive races would leave behind on Princess Huang.
Once their identities were exposed and the primitive races were enraged, they wouldn't be able to complete their mission.
"Mhm?"
Princess Huang's face flickered with a trace of fluctuation but she soon calmed down.
Bzz!
The Demonic Beast Patriarchs emitted a vast amount of energy that unceasingly flowed into the black cauldron. He chanted a complicated chant and not long later, the black cauldron was awakened. Traces of silver light drilled into Princess Huang's mind.
Princess Huang had a pained expression as her body trembled. Not long later, her eyes turned blank and she lost the strength to struggle.
"Soul searching."
The old ancestor of the demonic beasts roared. Under his control, the silver beam of light started to search Princess Phoenix's soul. Swordman watched nervously. If the soul search was successful, their chances of completing the mission would increase infinitely.
Bzz!
The Demonic Beast Patriarchs closed his eyes and sensed the information brought by the silver light. Not long later, his body began to tremble as excitement appeared on his face. Because the silver light had already found the method to control the token and was transmitting it to him.
Argh!
All of a sudden, the Demonic Beast Patriarchs let out a miserable cry. Golden runes appeared in Princess Huang's mind, directly suppressing the silver light.
Hmph!
Next, a cold snort that seemed to have existed since ancient times reverberated in the air.
"You dare to search the soul of a member of my primitive race?"
This voice came from Princess Huang's master.
As the sound of this voice faded, the golden runes completely devoured the silver light and formed a powerful rebounding force, severely injuring the Demonic Beast Patriarch's primordial spirit.
Puchi!
The Demonic Beast Patriarch's head almost exploded. His primordial spirit was severely injured and almost destroyed. He lost his combat strength and fell to the ground weakly. When Sword Lunatic saw this, he immediately controlled Princess Huang and came to the side of the Demonic Beast Patriarch.
"How are you?"
"I won't die."
The Demonic Beast Patriarch said weakly. "The primitive race left a restriction in her mind. I can't search her soul."
Princess Huang had a pained expression but luckily, the soul searching technique was useless against her. She heaved a sigh of relief.
This way, she was still very valuable to the two of them. At least her life wouldn't be in danger for the time being.
