"Elder Xuan also knows about the Five Elements Academy?" asked Fang Chen.
After hearing Fang Chen's words, Elder Xuan sat back down and revealed a complicated look on his face.
"It's been so many years. I didn't think the Five Elements Sword would still exist," muttered Elder Xuan.
"Elder Xuan, you seem to know a lot about the Five Elements Academy," said Fang Chen.
"Do you know who founded the Five Elements Academy?" Elder Xuan looked at Fang Chen.
Fang Chen shook his head. Elder Xuan continued, "The reason I know about the Five Elements Academy is because the founder of the Five Elements Academy is from the Sword Burial Prefecture."
"What Sword Burial Prefecture's people?" Fang Chen's heart trembled. "Elder Xuan, what's going on?"
This matter was too shocking.
He hadn't expected the founder of the Five Elements Academy to come from the Sword Burial Prefecture.
"You'll know when you meet people from the Five Elements City when you have the time." Elder Xuan waved his hand. He didn't want to say anything more.
Elder Xuan closed his eyes after he finished speaking.
Seeing this, Fang Chen could only retreat.
"Five Elements City … Could it be that the Five Elements Sword is related to Five Elements City?" Fang Chen guessed.
In the second month after Fang Chen entered the Sword Battle Arena, Fatty Li came to find Fang Chen.
"Brother Gujian, today is the day all the geniuses gather. I've come to invite you," said Fatty Li.
It just so happened that Fang Chen's cultivation had reached a bottleneck. He could use this opportunity to relax.
"Thank you for your trouble, brother Li."
Fang Chen followed Fatty Li to the Golden Sword Restaurant and went up to the highest floor.
There were over twenty young cultivators here, led by Luo Bairen and Wu Li.
"Brother Gujian."
Everyone greeted Fang Chen when they saw him.
Gujian had obtained their approval for defeating Yong An.
At this moment, in a corner, Yong An was glaring at Fang Chen with killing intent.
"Everyone."
Fang Chen cupped his hands and greeted everyone.
When geniuses gathered together, it was nothing more than an exchange of experiences.
Fang Chen listened quietly. Luo Bairen and the others were natives of the Sword Burial Prefecture, so they were very familiar with the rules there, which made it easy for them to cultivate.
As for Fang Chen, he was an outsider after all. He needed to slowly assimilate.
"Luo Bairen, how's your Ancient Golden Indestructible Sword Art?"
Fatty Li asked curiously during the banquet.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on Luo Bairen.
"Subtlety," Luo Bairen said.
Everyone was stunned. As expected of Luo Bairen. Within Golden Sword City, Luo Bairen's Ancient Golden Indestructible Sword Technique was probably the highest.
"It's just the Refinement realm. What's there to be proud of?"
At this moment, Wu Li sneered and said disdainfully.
Seeing Wu Li and Luo Bairen bickering, Fang Chen also faintly smiled.
At the same time, he sighed inwardly. Luo Bairen and Wu Li's cultivation had reached the sixth level of the True Martial Realm, and they had cultivated the Ancient Golden Indestructible Sword Art to the Refinement realm.
He had learned from Elder Xuan that only those who had cultivated the city's ultimate technique to the Transformation realm could enter the Sword Burial Pond.
Even Luo Bairen, who was in the sixth level of the True Martial Realm, wasn't qualified to enter. He wondered what kind of monstrous geniuses were in the Sword Burial City.
Everyone was already used to Luo Bairen and Wu Li's bickering.
Fatty Li also didn't stop them, allowing them to bicker.
Fatty Li turned to Fang Chen and smiled, "Brother Gujian, you're too low-key."
"If I'm not strong, I can only keep a low profile." Fang Chen smiled.
"Brother Gujian, your strength is second only to Luo Bairen and Wu Li. If you're not strong, then what should we do?"
In the past few months, Fang Chen's strength had greatly increased. Fatty Li was ashamed of his inferiority.
In response, Fang Chen just smiled mischievously.
His True Martial tribulation was a twelfth-level tribulation. His cultivation path couldn't be looked at with ordinary eyes.
"Brother Gujian, are you from one of the three continents outside the Sword Burial Prefecture?" asked Fatty Li.
Although Fang Chen's background was very mysterious, it was still known that he came from one of the three continents.
However, no one said anything about that.
In the past, the Sword Burial Prefecture also had some martial artists from the three continents. The first thing they did after arriving was to find a power to join and then slowly temper themselves.
For Gujian to be able to join the Sword Battle Arena also showed that his strength was extraordinary.
"What a pity. If Brother Gujian had come a few months earlier, you might have been able to see the shocking scene from half a year ago." Fatty Li looked outside Golden Sword City and suddenly thought of the scene from half a year ago.
"Oh, brother Li, can you tell me more about it?" asked Fang Chen.
"About half a year ago, we were gathered here when a terrifying ray of light shot over from the distance. Seeing that, we all flew out of the city.
"A huge cauldron appeared in the wasteland, and there was a martial artist inside," said Fatty Li.
Fang Chen had always been wearing a mask. Furthermore, after going through the twelfth-level tribulation, his temperament had completely changed. Fatty Li had no way of knowing that the person he was talking about was right in front of him.
"What did that cauldron look like?"
When Fang Chen heard this, his heart trembled as he asked anxiously.
"Three-legged, two-eared cauldron. We guessed that it was some supreme expert reviving. But what a pity." Fatty Li sighed.
"What's a pity?" asked Fang Chen.
After Fang Chen had revived, his memories had stopped at him being killed in the Devil Cloud Lian Prefecture. He had no memories of what had happened after that.
But now, from what Fatty Li was saying, that cauldron and that martial artist were definitely him.
"As expected, it was the cauldron that brought me to the Sword Burial Prefecture," thought Fang Chen.
"The Blood Refining King suddenly appeared and took away that supreme expert's corpse. He said he wanted to refine it into a Blood Puppet," said Fatty Li.
After listening to Fatty Li, Fang Chen finally understood how he had come to the Sword Burial Prefecture.
"I was refined into a puppet by the Blood Refining King." Fang Chen was very puzzled.
Since he had been refined into a puppet by the Blood Refining King, then how had he revived in that canyon?
There was a gap in his memories.
"He could have been revived, but now he's probably placed in the Blood Puppet Building, waiting for someone rich to buy him," said Fatty Li.
Fang Chen carefully analyzed, "I was refined into a Blood Puppet by the Blood Refining King. Someone should have bought me and then sent me to the canyon."
That had to be the case. But just who had bought him?
That person had unknowingly saved Fang Chen's life.
However, at the same time, Fang Chen also secretly remembered the Blood Refining King.
"He actually refined me into a Blood Puppet," muttered Fang Chen.
Unknowingly, an entire afternoon had passed.
The gathering of geniuses was gradually coming to an end.
Fang Chen had gained a lot in the afternoon.
He had obtained many people's cultivation experiences, and he had resolved many of his own doubts.
In the end, Luo Bairen was the first to speak. "This gathering of geniuses ends here."
Luo Bairen looked at Fang Chen and said, "Brother Gujian, the Ancient Golden Bell will open in a month. I presume you'll be there."
"Brother Gujian must have come for the Ancient Golden Inextinguishable Sword. How could you miss such an opportunity?" asked Wu Li.
Fang Chen nodded. "Correct. I'm also interested in the Ancient Golden Inextinguishable Sword."
"Brother Gujian, with your potential, you'll definitely be able to obtain it," said Fatty Li.
"Hahaha, everyone, this gathering ends here. Let's all work hard to get to Sword Burial City as soon as possible." Luo Bairen vanished.
It had already been over half a year since he had arrived in the Sword Burial Prefecture. Fang Chen's strength had increased across the board.
Perhaps even the Devil Cloud Prefecture hadn't expected that not only had he not died, but he had even gone through twelve tribulations to become a True Martial expert.
After going through twelve tribulations, Fang Chen was even more confident in his ability to break through to the Profound King realm.
"I once secretly asked around. If a Profound King wants to refine a mortal world, it'll take them at least a few hundred years. And if you're not a native, you'll be rejected by the world core for even longer," thought Fang Chen.
That gave him several hundred years. That was enough time for him to break through.
"Just wait. There will be a day when I return to the Ancient Sword Continent and take back everything that originally belonged to me. I'll also take revenge for my wife."
After the gathering ended, Fang Chen began to carefully study the cultivation experiences of Luo Bairen and the others.
After studying them, his comprehension of the Sword Dao grew even deeper.
Fang Chen could sense that the golden heart was invisibly changing him.
Inside the Sword Battle Arena, other than occasionally making a move a few times, they were practically cultivating.
After a month, Fang Chen's Five Elements Sword Art had reached the great circle. If the higher-ups of the Five Elements Academy knew of this, they would definitely be shocked.
However, Fang Chen was very strict with himself.
He had to obtain the recognition of the Zang Sword Emperor in the shortest time possible to revive his wife, Star and Moon.
If the interval was too long, the souls of Star and Moon would completely leave the Ancient Sword Continent and enter the legendary Six Paths of Reincarnation.
At that time, even the Zang Sword Emperor might not be able to revive them.
There wasn't much time left for Fang Chen. Fang Chen needed to work hard.
One day, within Goldensword City, the deafening sound of a bell reverberated through the sky.
After the bell rang, the Golden Sword City was bustling with noise and excitement. All the martial artists hurried to the place where the Ancient Golden Bell was located, wanting to witness the grand opening of the Ancient Golden Bell.
The Ancient Golden Bell had accompanied the Golden Sword City since ancient times.
The Ancient Golden Bell contained the Ancient Golden Immortal Sword Art.
The powerful younger generation could enter the Ancient Golden Bell to seek opportunities.
In the Sword Arena, Fang Chen slowly stood up, his face filled with excitement.
"Is the Ancient Golden Bell about to open?"
After waiting for such a long time, the Ancient Golden Bell had finally opened.
After obtaining the Ancient Golden Immortal Sword Art, he would be one step closer to his goal of the Zang Sword City.
"This time, I must obtain the Ancient Golden Immortal Sword Art," Fang Chen thought to himself.
Elder Xuan silently arrived at Fang Chen's courtyard and brought Fang Chen to the Ancient Golden Bell.
The annual Ancient Golden Bell opening was a grand event in the Golden Sword City.
On this day, the entire Golden Sword City was packed with people.
Luo Bairen, Wu Li, and the other younger generation had arrived early.
Many Mystic King Realm experts from Goldensword City had come as well.
The opening of the Ancient Golden Bell wasn't just for the younger generation to seek opportunities.
