About a day later, Ye Guchen arrived at the Sword Seeking Stele of the Beichen Mansion.
The Sword Seeking Stele at the top of the Sky Sword Peak was still in ruins.
Coming to this familiar place, Ye Guchen's eyes had a touch of melancholy.
He unconsciously thought of Situ Hongxue.
He thought of the few days he spent with Situ Hongxue, honing their swordsmanship, hunting demonic beasts, and barbecuing.
That was also a rare leisure time for Ye Guchen.
But now, things had changed.
Situ Hongxue disappeared without a trace like a wisp of smoke.
In the entire Saint Origin Dynasty, there was no news about Situ Hongxue.
This woman, who was once famous in the dynasty, seemed to have disappeared from the world. No one mentioned her.
But when he thought of the old woman with a high realm beside Situ Hongxue, Ye Guchen felt that Situ Hongxue might have left the Saint Origin Dynasty and gone to the wider world of the Nantian Region.
"I don't know if we can meet again." Ye Guchen shook his head slightly and stopped thinking about it.
If fate brought them together, they would meet again.
If not, then forget about each other.
Ye Guchen activated the Sequence Emblem on the back of his hand and entered the Heavenly Law Sword Realm.
With his current strength of the Divine Soul Sixth Transformation, he absorbed another 20,000 Sword Souls.
After absorbing twenty thousand Sword Souls, Ye Gu Chen felt that his body was bloated, so he stopped.
"Now, there are 30,000 Sword Souls in my body. As the number of Sword Souls increases, the power will be greatly enhanced. I will come back for the remaining Sword Souls in the future."
Ye Guchen did not force it. With his current strength, he could only accommodate 30,000 Sword Souls.
After that, Ye Guchen left the Sword Seeking Stele.
After another day, Ye Guchen arrived at the Heavenly Wasteland Plain.
Ye Guchen always had a feeling that there was an undiscovered secret in the Heavenly Wasteland Plain.
But now, with his current strength, he could not find out anything.
Therefore, Ye Guchen did not think too much and went directly to the Venerable Cave Mansion.
Ye Guchen saw the ancient stone forest from afar.
In the sky above the stone forest, the seventy-two-leaf Reincarnation Sword Lotus was still spinning.
Accompanied by the rotation of the Sword Lotus, countless sharp and fierce Sword Qis gushed out without rest.
With this method left behind by Feng Manlou, the Venerable Cave Mansion was extremely safe and would not be taken by outsiders.
Ye Guchen looked around and found that there was no one around.
His figure flashed and directly entered the Cave Mansion.
Ye Guchen had been to the Venerable Immortal's Cave twice.
The first time, he broke broke in with the others.
The second time, Ye Guchen entered alone and obtained the Enlightenment Leaf and the Blood Cloud Centipede.
However, Ye Guchen knew that the value of a Venerable's cave abode could not be so little.
Otherwise, Qiu Shan would not have been so eager to get Ye Guchen to hand over the Cave Mansion.
When Ye Guchen entered the Cave Mansion last time, he also found a layer of light barrier in the depths of the Cave Mansion.
Ye Guchen could not break the light barrier with his strength at that time, so he could only give up.
But now, Ye Guchen's strength had skyrocketed, so he could give it a try.
Soon, he arrived in front of the light barrier. Without hesitation, Ye Guchen directly unleashed his strongest combat strength. He brandished the Xuanming Heavy Sword and unleashed the Asura Sword Intent. He directly performed the first move of the 10,000 God Tribulation, Destruction of Heaven and Earth.
The terrifying sword Qi gathered at one point, as if it could destroy everything, and directly bombarded the light barrier.
This kind of attack was originally very penetrating, and Ye Guchen had already unleashed a powerful strength.
As expected, this layer of light trembled violently, and then with a bang, it shattered into countless specks of light.
After breaking this layer of light barrier, Ye Guchen entered deeper into the Cave Mansion.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Ye Guchen's footsteps suddenly stopped.
The reason for that was because he had discovered a figure standing there silently, emitting a cold murderous aura.
Ye Guchen frowned and raised his vigilance to the highest level.
In the Venerable Cave Mansion, the slightest negligence could cost one's life.
Ye Guchen released his Spiritual Perception, and to his surprise, the figure did not have a trace of life aura.
Ye Guchen's footsteps slowly approached.
Only then did he see the figure clearly.
The figure was covered in a ferocious blood-red armor.
The armor was covered with ferocious thorns, as if it was made of solidified blood, and densely covered the figure's entire body. There was even a layer of armor on the figure's face, making him look like an Asura demon.
At the same time, the figure was holding a blood-red longsword in his hand.
The edge on one side of the sword was also serrated, like the teeth of a shark. It looked rather murderous and bloody.
Whether it was the armor or the sword, there were some cracks all over it, as if it had been greatly damaged.
Even so, Ye Guchen could see that the armor and sword were extraordinary, and even seemed like a set of divine weapons.
Just as Ye Guchen walked within a hundred feet of the figure, the figure in the blood-red armor seemed to have awakened. He directly waved the blood-red longsword in his hand and charged at Ye Guchen.
Ye Guchen's expression changed slightly. The figure in the blood-red armor did not move, but once he moved, his power was monstrous. The blood-red sword light shocked Ye Guchen.
Boom!
Inside the Cave Mansion, a great battle unfolded.
Ye Guchen burst out with all his strength. He held the Xuanming Heavy Sword and summoned three hundred and sixty golden sword veins. At the same time, he used the Spirit Devouring Secret Technique, and his strength skyrocketed to the peak of the Nine Transformations.
Ye Guchen, who had the Ultimate Sea of Qi, no longer had any side effects after using the Spirit Devouring Secret Technique. Therefore, Ye Guchen could use this secret technique at will.
"God Slaying Sword Technique, Yama!"
Facing such a powerful figure in the blood-red armor, Ye Guchen did not hold back at all, and directly burst out with his powerful sword move.
The boundless blood-red figure rose from the ground behind Ye Guchen, as if it was the Yama of the Nine Serenities.
A blood-red sword light followed Ye Guchen's sword and swept out.
Boom!
As the dust scattered, the figure in the blood-red armor did not suffer any damage.
Ye Guchen's eyes suddenly flashed.
He knew that it was all because of the blood-red armor.
Boom!
The blood-red armor figure's strength skyrocketed again, directly reaching the Life-and-Death Challenge Realm.
Coupled with the defense of the blood-red armor and the offensive power of the blood-red longsword, Ye Guchen immediately fell into a dangerous situation.
"No, this figure is not a living person, but … a puppet!"
Ye Guchen's gaze was like a longsword as he stared at the figure in the blood-red armor.
Ye Guchen could not be more familiar with this kind of explosive aura. It was almost the same as the Blood Cloud Centipede.
Without hesitation, Ye Guchen directly summoned the Blood Cloud Centipede, and almost squeezed out the last bit of energy from the Demonic Cloud Blood Crystal.
The Blood Cloud Centipede's strength also skyrocketed to the Life-and-Death Challenge Realm.
However, it only lasted for a few dozen breaths.
Ye Guchen directly ordered the Blood Cloud Centipede to restrain the figure in the blood-red armor.
As for himself, he used Wave-like Subtle Steps, leaving behind afterimages as he circled behind the figure in the blood-red armor.
He knew that the Blood Cloud Centipede's energy source was the Demonic Cloud Blood Crystal behind its head.
Therefore, Ye Guchen planned to use brute force to extract the Demonic Cloud Blood Crystal.
Rumble!
The Blood Cloud Centipede clashed with the figure in the blood-red armor, firmly entangling it.
Ye Guchen, on the other hand, attacked the back of the figure's head with his sword.
However, the Xuanming Heavy Sword was not sharpened. Therefore, Ye Guchen could only put it away and condense his Zhen Qi into a sword.
"Seems like I still need a sharpened sword." Ye Guchen thought to himself as he continued to attack.
Finally, in the last few breaths of time when the Blood Cloud Centipede's energy was almost exhausted, Ye Guchen seized the opportunity and pried open the mechanism at the back of the figure's head.
A translucent crystal with a hazy blood mist swirling around it rolled out with a grunt.
The figure in the blood-red armor suddenly froze, as if it was frozen.
Ye Guchen's eyes brightened. The Demonic Cloud Blood Crystal had not been consumed much.
Besides, Ye Guchen was also somewhat interested in the blood armor and the blood-colored longsword.
