Qin Shi did not feel anything strange in the Punishment Realm. It was like the most chaotic space at the beginning of the world. As far as the eye could see, other than the pitch-black darkness that made one's heart feel gloomy, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
This was slightly different from what Qin Shi had expected. He had thought that the Realm of Punishment would be filled with danger.
"No, that's impossible. It can't be that simple."
This kind of unusual and ordinary feeling made Qin Shi feel that it was very unusual. After all, a spear that could be seen with the naked eye was not scary. The most frightening thing was a hidden arrow that could be hidden in the darkness and was impossible to guard against.
In the outside world, as Zhang Hun watched Qin Shi sink into the darkness, his old eyes became even more savage and savage. "Haha, stinking brat, just you wait. You'll soon experience the torture that makes you wish you were dead!"
Thinking back to the past, Zhang Hun's face twitched a few times, and his eyes could not help but spit out flames of anger.
"Big Brother, is this Realm of Punishment really that terrifying?" Fan Yan and Shen Tianyang asked curiously.
Zhang Hun's eyes darkened. "Do you think that a place that made me exhaust a thousand years of cultivation and barely manage to escape with my life is not terrifying?"
The two of them were taken aback and hurriedly shook their heads.
No one knew Zhang Hun's strength better than the two of them. When Zhang Hun had walked out of the Altar of Rules, his sorry and weak appearance was still fresh in their minds. They had known Zhang Hun for thousands of years, but apart from that one time, they could not remember when Zhang Hun had suffered such a heavy injury.
"You'll understand in a moment."
Zhang Hun smiled confidently. "This brat will never walk out of the Altar of Rules."
The two of them nodded expectantly and looked up.
In that space, Qin Shi maintained his vigilance the entire time.
Suddenly, his black eyes darkened, and a few ripples appeared in front of him. In the darkness that could not see the light of day, there were actually some strange ripples being stirred up.
"That is …"
His black pupils constricted. Then, he saw two slits open in the darkness.
"Those are … eyes?"
Qin Shi's heart sank. After the two slits opened, the eerie pupils were especially obvious. Soon after, the darkness began to sway, and a gigantic beast over a thousand feet tall stood up and let out an extremely arrogant roar.
"Roar!"
Rumble!
It was impossible to make out the shape of the beast. It had a pair of horns that pierced through the sky, and a pair of devil wings that were more than ten thousand zhang long on its back. It looked like a demon from the abyss.
Gulp!
The gigantic beast appeared so quickly that Qin Shi didn't even have the chance to react. In front of this gigantic beast, he seemed very small, like a speck of dust.
"It's the Guardian Sword Demon in the altar!" Fang Qing clenched her fists tightly as she stared at the gigantic beast.
She was the sect master of Sword Sect, and she had long since heard that there was a Sword Demon that protected the sect on the altar of rules, formed by the Sword Qi of several sect masters. However, even she could not help but be shocked when she saw it for the first time.
The Sword Demon had perfected the Domain Realm.
She had known this for a long time.
"Qin Shi is in trouble." Fang Qing bit her lips.
"It's just killing a fellow sect member. There shouldn't be such a punishment, right?" Feng Sha asked in confusion.
Fang Qing frowned slightly. Logically speaking, that was indeed the case, but the Sword Demon was also so clear. What was going on?
Suddenly, her beautiful eyes fell on Zhang Hun, and the evil corners of his mouth made her heart sink.
Then, she said coldly, "I know."
"Hm?" Feng Sha looked at her curiously.
She said, "Originally, Qin Shi's crime was not enough to summon the Sword Demon. The Sword Demon only appeared because Zhang Hun had just sealed the altar of rules, which is a great taboo in Sword Sect. The altar of rules was originally used to punish Qin Shi, so it was all put on Qin Shi."
"I see."
Feng Sha understood and then immediately flew into a rage. "Damn it, that old guy must have known about this. That's why he did it on purpose!"
Fang Qing narrowed her almond-shaped eyes and looked worriedly at Qin Shi.
Even though she already knew the reason, it was useless now. If she had found out before Qin Shi entered the altar of rules, she would have definitely stopped Qin Shi. Even if she had to expel him from the Sword Sect, she would not let Qin Shi enter the altar. But now that Qin Shi was trapped, even she did not have the right to pull him out. She could only do nothing.
"I can only hope that the little guy can survive this."
In that space, Qin Shi was stunned by the Sword Demon Protector in front of him. The Sword Demon's enormous and terrifying strength made him feel a little uneasy.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, Sword Devil made his move. With a single roar, millions of sword-lights shot toward Qin Shi. It was as if ten thousand swords had returned to their origin.
"Damn it!"
Qin Shi clenched his teeth and hurriedly tightened the black robe around him. Immediately, his body swiftly took a step back. Relying on the Rushing Lightning Force, he barely managed to roll one round and dodge the sword light.
But before he could stabilize himself, the Sword Demon's arm turned into a huge sword and fiercely chopped down on his forehead.
His eyes darkened. "Relic Inheritance!"
He quickly condensed the golden pagoda and three thousand relics surrounded him.
Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang! The sound of metal colliding could be heard. The golden pagoda seemed extremely weak under the huge sword. A rough crack appeared on the top, and then it actually broke in half in front of everyone's eyes.
"Qin Shi!" The outside world exclaimed!
Rumble!
Following that, there were continuous explosions in the space. When the golden light dissipated, the huge sword suddenly stopped less than half a meter away from the ground.
Everyone watched with rapt attention. Under the huge sword, the black-robed figure was supporting himself with one knee on the ground. His hands were covered in golden phoenix feathers, and the veins on his hands were bulging. Only then did he manage to block the huge sword.
But everyone could see that Qin Shi didn't have it easy.
The golden phoenix feathers on the back of his hands had already fallen off.
"Luckily I didn't cancel the Fallen Star Tyrant Body Art and my two Dharma Bodies."
Qin Shi couldn't help rejoicing. Thinking back to when the huge sword had approached him, his palms were immediately covered in sweat.
If he hadn't been prepared, he wouldn't have been able to condense the Fallen Star Tyrant Body Art and his two Dharma Bodies in the blink of an eye.
He clenched his teeth. "Ha!"
Bang!
He used all his strength and relied on the power of his knees to barely knock the huge sword back. Then he rolled around on the ground and dodged through the crack.
"He dodged?"
This was seriously too hair-raising. Quite a few disciples broke out in cold sweat for Qin Shi.
Fortunately, the result was good.
But just as everyone was feeling happy for Qin Shi, Zhang Hun sneered. "Haha, kid, don't be anxious. This is just the beginning. The real show is yet to come."
On the other side, in the Law Enforcement Department.
"Big brother, do you think that Qin Shi can really come out of the Altar of Rules alive?" Chi Quyan asked Long Tingyan curiously.
Long Tingyan narrowed his eyes. He had a feeling that Qin Shi's appearance wasn't a coincidence. "I don't know, but if he can come out, he'll definitely leave behind a grand legacy in the Sword Sect."
"I hope he won't let down your core yuan essence."
Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion.
Yun Yan looked at Qin Shi in the Altar of Rules, his face full of anxiety. If others didn't know, they would probably think that he and Qin Shi had some unspeakable secret.
But only he knew that he just didn't want Qin Shi to die. He couldn't help but ask Master Lu Shan, "Master, he won't die in the Altar of Rules just like that, right?
I still have to find him for revenge and defeat him with my own hands! "
Master Lu Shan's expression was solemn. To be honest, he didn't know how to respond to Yun Yan. He had thousands of years of experience in the Sword Sect, and he was very clear about the dangers of the Altar of Rules.
He took a deep breath and sighed in his heart.
"Qi Qing, is this your choice?
Let me see what's so special about him. "
After dodging the giant sword attack, Qin Shi retreated a thousand meters before stabilizing himself.
Then, he suddenly calmed down and raised his head high to look at the giant sword demon.
"I can't let this go on. Otherwise, I'll really die here. Looks like I have to hurry up and find the Source of Punishment that Haoyue mentioned."
He narrowed his eyes and suddenly entered a strange state.
This state was like he had forgotten himself.
His Divine Telekinesis could control the entire space.
"Roar!"
However, his action seemed to have instantly angered the huge Sword Demon. The Sword Demon continuously emitted a couple of wild roars. Immediately, it took a step forward and the thousand meter distance disappeared. It directly arrived in front of Qin Shi. Immediately, it raised its arm high up. It was like a pillar that supported the heavens and earth as it rolled down towards Qin Shi.
"Golden Pattern Psychokinesis Body!"
Qin Shi's body shook violently. He didn't have time to waste with this big guy.
In an instant, he split into two. He used his clone to attract the sword demon's attention, and his real body instantly hid in a dark corner.
In the corner, Qin Shi entered that state again.
Suddenly, the darkness in front of him was no longer just a space. He realized that the so-called Punishment Realm was actually an ancient formation board that was as large as the sky and the earth.
The formation board was like a chessboard, but it wasn't made of chess pieces. Instead, it was made of thousands of Sumeru Swords. The thousands of illusory swords were connected by sword lights. All of this could not be seen with the naked eye, and could only be sensed with Telekinesis.
"There really is something wrong!"
After confirming the nature of the Punishment Realm, Qin Shi suddenly laughed.
If it was anything else, he might not be confident. But if it was a formation, he thought that it wouldn't be difficult for him.
He believed what Jade In The Book had said to him.
All the formations in the world could be broken.
Now, he only needed to find the formation eye of the huge formation board.
Suddenly, he remembered the three treasures that Feng Sha had given him.
The Sword Array Formation Diagram of Changing Scriptures.
He quickly flipped through it, but at this moment, there was a sudden explosion in the distance.
Bang!
Bang bang bang!
After a few explosions, his sea of consciousness suddenly trembled. An intense headache made him grit his teeth. He saw his clone being torn to pieces by the sword demon.
The sword demon also realized that he had been tricked. His fierce eyes suddenly locked onto Qin Shi's real body.
"Damn it!
Is it too late? "
Qin Shi panicked. Sword Demon was already closing in on him. He had no other choice but to restrain himself. Only after biting his lip did he calm down. He allowed the Sword Qi in the air to tear at him. He focused all his energy on the Sword Array Diagram of Changes.
It had to be said that the Sword Formation Diagram of Book of Changes contained 30,000 Sword Sect Formations. Every single one of them was the most profound formation in the world. He thought that if he could master one or two of them, it would be of great help to him in the future.
Of course, now was not the time to think about this. The most important thing now was to find the formation eye of the formation board.
Suddenly, a formation board engraved with the word "Sin" emerged from the diagram. Qin Shi's eyes flashed with joy.
