If the Green-Robed Sword Marquis had treated Fang Chen as an ordinary warrior at the start, then now, he had completely treated Fang Chen as his enemy.
The genius sword cultivator of the Illusory Sword Principle was fully qualified to be his opponent.
Spots of light appeared around the Green-Robed Sword Marquis' body. These spots of light contained an extremely majestic sword intent.
The Green-Robed Sword Marquis' sword intent was very pure, but Fang Chen's sword intent was not. It was mixed with a powerful illusory aura.
Displaying the Invincible Azure Cloud Sword Art, the Green-Robed Sword Marquis' longsword stabbed out. On the tip of the sword, ripples appeared.
Bang
Fang Chen's twelfth level of the Fire and Water Sword Art was fully activated. The sword light of the same origin as fire and water collided with the longsword of the Green-Robed Sword Marquis.
Crack!
With a loud crack, the two collided and a bright light exploded. Seeing this, the Green-Robed Sword Marquis' face changed.
He could clearly feel the illusory aura enveloping him. He tried his best to activate his soul to prevent himself from being affected by the illusory aura.
However, just as he was resisting the illusory aura, Fang Chen's Hidden Star Sword stabbed out again. The Fire and Water Sword Light pierced towards the Green-Robed Sword Marquis.
Bang!
The Green-Robed Sword Marquis hurriedly placed his longsword in front of his chest and blocked Fang Chen's attack.
The Green-Robed Sword Marquis' body was forced back a few steps. After he stabilized himself, he squinted his eyes and looked at Fang Chen. His heart was filled with shock.
He was only at the eighth level of the Qi Hai Realm and he was already so strong.
At this moment, the Green-Robed Sword Marquis gave up on continuing the battle with Fang Chen. Even if he could defeat or even kill Fang Chen, he would still be injured. And it would be a serious injury.
At this moment, Fang Chen looked at the Green-Robed Sword Marquis cautiously. The latter's strength had also exceeded his expectations. Moreover, the latter had not even released his Dharma Idol.
"I'm very happy to meet a sword genius like you." The marquis put away his sword and looked at Fang Chen.
"In front of the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis, no one dares to call themselves a sword genius," Fang Chen said.
What he said was the truth. The Green-Robed Sword Marquis' talent in swordsmanship was too heaven-defying. Furthermore, it was said that the Green-Robed Sword Marquis' dharma was a giant sword.
To be able to condense a Dharma Idol Giant Sword, it was enough to see how deep the Green-Robed Sword Marquis' understanding of the Sword Dao was.
"Hahaha."
The Green-robed Sword Marquis laughed and left the stone room.
Looking at the departing figure of the Sword Marquis, Fang Chen narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time.
After the Azure Robed Sword Marquis left, no other martial artist entered the stone chamber. They all knew their limits. If the Azure Robed Sword Marquis left, then there was no need to mention them.
For a moment, the stone chamber became much quieter. Fang Chen took out the crystal ball and began to study it.
The crystal ball was the size of a palm. Within the crystal ball, there was an extremely cold aura. This made Fang Chen feel as if he was in a land of ice.
"Just what is this crystal ball?" Fang Chen was puzzled.
At this moment, Ancestor Bronze opened his mouth.
"Kid, the crystal ball in your hand is just an ordinary crystal ball," said Ancestor Bronze.
Hearing Old Ancestor Bronze's words, Fang Chen frowned in disbelief.
"However, although the crystal ball is an ordinary crystal ball, the icy aura contained within the crystal ball is extremely powerful." Ancestor Bronze continued.
"Ancestor, you're saying that this crystal ball contains an extremely dense cold aura?" Fang Chen asked in surprise.
"Correct. If you can absorb the cold aura within this crystal ball, it will be able to raise your ice concept," said Ancestor Bronze.
Fang Chen was startled. He was immediately overjoyed. He had never thought that he would be able to obtain such a thing in this tomb.
Fang Chen immediately asked Ancestor Bronze how to absorb the cold aura within the crystal ball. Because the crystal ball was an ordinary crystal ball, it would definitely shatter under pressure. Once it shattered, the cold aura within would definitely dissipate.
This wasn't something Fang Chen wanted to see, so he asked the Ancestor.
According to the Ancestor, Fang Chen quickly began to absorb the cold aura within the crystal ball.
Time slowly passed. Fang Chen's body was filled with an extremely cold aura. It was as if he was in a land of ice in the Golden Crown Country.
At this time, Fang Chen's ice concept covered his entire body. From a distance, Fang Chen looked like an ice man as he sat quietly in the stone chamber.
The entire stone chamber became incomparably cold because of the ice concept coming from Fang Chen's body. It was like an icehouse.
Hiss Hiss Hiss
Six hours later, Fang Chen successfully absorbed the cold aura within the crystal ball. At this time, the ice around him actually started to melt.
"This aura …"
Fang Chen noticed that the cold aura was quickly entering his body. At this moment, his mind was filled with the aura of ice concept.
Buzz
A roar was heard. Fang Chen discovered that his ice concept had improved a lot.
"Previously, my ice concept had been in the initial stage of comprehension. After absorbing the cold aura within the crystal ball, my ice concept has finally stabilized at the first minor realm." Fang Chen's face was full of smiles.
Fang Chen was very happy to have such a harvest just after entering the tomb.
Then, Fang Chen got up and checked the stone chamber. He discovered that there was nothing else in the stone chamber except for the crystal ball.
"It seems that I still need to go somewhere else." Fang Chen thought to himself.
Then, Fang Chen got ready to leave.
However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a small hole in the wall from the corner of his eye. Upon closer inspection, the size of this small hole was actually very similar to that of the crystal ball just now.
"Hmm …"
Fang Chen was a little puzzled. He then picked up the crystal ball. At this time, the crystal ball had become an ordinary crystal ball. He held it in his hand, but he did not feel anything.
Then, Fang Chen placed the crystal ball into the small hole and found that it fit perfectly.
"Hu Quan must have taken the crystal ball from this wall." Fang Chen thought to himself.
Just as Fang Chen was speaking, the crystal ball on the wall suddenly spun rapidly. After a while, the speed of the crystal ball's rotation was so fast that even Fang Chen could not see it.
"This …"
Fang Chen looked at the crystal ball with a look of surprise on his face.
After a minute, the crystal ball stopped spinning. With a "kacha" sound, cracks appeared on the seamless wall. Finally, these cracks converged to form the appearance of a stone door.
"There's a universe inside." Fang Chen thought to himself.
Then, Fang Chen gently pushed open the stone door and went in.
Behind the stone door was a large hall. This hall was extremely spacious. At the front of the hall was a coffin. It seemed that this was the core of the tomb.
At this moment, there were five figures in the hall. When they saw Fang Chen appear, a trace of vigilance appeared on their faces.
When the five of them saw Fang Chen, they looked at each other. Then, one of them looked at Fang Chen and asked, "Kid, which Sect are you from?"
"The Barren Sect."
When they heard the two words "Barren Sect", a trace of fear flashed across the eyes of the five people.
"So you're a disciple of the Barren Sect." The person who spoke just now said with a smile.
Fang Chen ignored the five people and walked straight to the center of the hall. At this moment, Fang Chen discovered that the temperature of the air had dropped a lot after he entered the hall.
"The temperature here is so low." Fang Chen was puzzled. The closer he got to the coffin, the lower the temperature was.
"Could it be …"
Fang Chen guessed inwardly. He quickly approached the coffin. When the five people saw this, their faces were filled with gloating expressions.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen approached the coffin. At this moment, Fang Chen instantly felt an extremely cold aura.
"As expected."
At this moment, Fang Chen finally knew that this Condensing Reality Realm expert must have been a warrior who had comprehended the concept of ice.
Although he had died many years ago, there was still an extremely cold aura surrounding his coffin.
"He can actually get close to the coffin. How strange."
"Could it be that he comprehended the concept of ice?"
"That must be it. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get close to the coffin. Damn it."
The five people were originally gloating, but when they saw Fang Chen approaching the coffin, their faces were filled with anger.
At this moment, another figure entered the hall. When the five people looked over, their expressions changed again. They discovered that the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis had appeared.
"It's the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis. Why is he here?" The five people whispered.
After the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis arrived in the hall, he looked around and instantly discovered Fang Chen. He immediately revealed a smile and said, "You're quite fast."
The Azure-Robed Sword Marquis' figure flashed and directly approached the coffin. Sensing someone approaching, Fang Chen turned around and discovered the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis.
The Azure-Robed Sword Marquis lightly nodded towards Fang Chen. Fang Chen didn't stop him.
When the two appeared in front of the coffin, it was as if their hearts were connected. They both stretched out their hands at the same time and fiercely grabbed the coffin lid, lifting it up in an instant.
Immediately, a wild cold aura enveloped the entire hall. The five people who had arrived earlier felt as if their souls were about to be frozen.
"Let's go!"
Someone shouted. The other four people quickly left the hall.
At the same time, Fang Chen and the Azure-Robed Sword Marquis' ice concept was pushed to the extreme. The two of them were crazily absorbing the ice concept from the coffin.
The Azure-Robed Sword Marquis was absorbing the cold aura while looking at Fang Chen. He was getting more and more curious about Fang Chen.
They were both sword geniuses, both Qi Hai Realm experts, both Condensing Reality Realm experts, and both had the same concept. Was this a coincidence?
