Chapter 138: Innate Triple Layer

  The Xuantian's pre-heavenly true energy was dense and thick, transforming into a pre-heavenly true fire that could almost be turned into a raging flame over ten meters high. However, after refining it into the 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan', only a fist-sized flame remained, showing just how powerful this 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan' was.

  This 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan' has been keeping it dormant in the dantian, and when facing an enemy, this is also a not-so-small trump card.

  At the early stage of Xiantian, a martial artist who was hit by 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan' would almost certainly die. Even if it were a mid-stage Xiantian martial artist who was hit, they would still suffer severe injuries. In terms of attack power, 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan' seems to be even more terrifying than a middle-grade Xuan-ranked treasure.

  After all, the middle-grade treasure in Xuanjie needs the innate true energy of a martial artist to be effective, whereas 'Xuanhuo Xin Yan' directly possesses terrifying damage power.

  Xuan Tian began cultivating 'Ghost Shadow Soul Step' after successfully condensing the 'Mysterious Fire Heart Flame'.

  A warrior's understanding of martial arts will grow as their cultivation grows.

  Similarly qualified martial artists, one with a congenital boundary of first-order cultivation and another with a congenital boundary of third-order cultivation, practicing the same Xuanjie lower-grade martial skill, will definitely be cultivated faster by the martial artist with a congenital boundary of third-order cultivation.

  Because martial arts experience has a certain positive impact on insight.

  An ordinary warrior is like this, and a rare genius of swordsmanship like Xuantian is even more remarkable.

  He had entered the Innate Realm for the third time and was once again cultivating the "Ghost Shadow Soul Stepping Technique". Compared to when he was in the second stage of the Innate Realm, Xuan Tian felt that it was much easier now. Many places that were previously difficult to understand were now suddenly clear; many actions that were previously difficult to accomplish were now effortless.

  The speed of practicing 'Ghost Shadow Soul Step' is several times faster than the second heavy heaven.

  The third stage of "Ghost Shadow Soul Step". It is a light skill in the middle of the Mysterious Stage, which was difficult to cultivate during the Second Heaven Realm. Now that the cultivation has further advanced, after only three days, the cultivation of "Ghost Shadow Soul Step" has broken through a realm and reached the third stage.

  Xuantian's strong point lies in the cultivation of 'technique', with threefold pre-heavenly realm refinement, cultivating mid-grade lightness skill in Xuanjie without any hindrance.

  Entering the cave where Zhu Wuying is located has already been nine days, and the third stage of 'Ghost Shadow Soul Step' has been successfully cultivated. It's time to leave this place.

  Xuantian stood up, 'Zhongyue Sword' and 'Chu Blue Sword', crossed behind Xuantian's back.

  With a clang, Xuan Tian drew out the "Heavy Mountain Sword" and walked towards the half-hidden stone gate leading to the "Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Formation".

  The stone gate is extremely thick and cannot be pushed with a force of less than tens of thousands of catties, however. The stone gate has not been closed tightly, and there is a gap on the side that is just enough for one person to pass through.

  Xuantian passed through the gap and continued forward.

  In front of it was still a mountain cave, extending ten meters before turning right, and the end could not be seen.

  He raised his vigilance and stepped forward step by step. His eyes carefully observed the front, and his ears moved slightly, listening to the sounds from all directions at any moment.

  However, this cave seems to be free from any danger and may not have reached the range of 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Array'. Xuan Tian walked forward for over a thousand meters in this slightly curved cave, when suddenly the cave ahead expanded. A huge dome appeared.

  This grotto is much larger than the one where Zhu Wuyin is, it's round in shape. The diameter exceeds over 50 meters, separated by more than a hundred steps.

  Xuantian stood at the edge of the cave, carefully observing the situation inside. He could vaguely feel that in the void, there seemed to be a formless force surging, and the air was slowly flowing towards the mountain cave where Xuantian was located without any wind.

  On the walls around the cave, six swords were hung, with the swords in their scabbards, and it was impossible to tell their quality. Next to each sword, some symbols were engraved, and there were ten recesses, each containing a green glowing stone.

  On the ten grooves above, a black flag about one foot high was inserted, on which the same pattern was painted. Xuan Tian could feel the source of the surging power from it.

  The distance between the six swords is almost exactly the same, and if you connect them with a line, it's almost an equilateral hexagon.

  Six swords, sixty recesses, six black flags, and numerous symbolic marks.

  Xuántiān although did not understand array method, but at a glance, in an instant also understood, this was exactly 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Array'.

  And Xuan Tian's gaze fell on the shiny stones in those sixty recesses, extremely surprised, and exclaimed: "It's actually a spiritual stone!"

  Ling stone is formed when the heaven and earth yuanqi in the ground is concentrated to the extreme, forming the heaven and earth lingqi, producing the ling vein, and the stone formed by the solidification of the lingqi.

  The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is a higher quality energy than the original energy of heaven and earth. One strand of heavenly spiritual energy is equivalent to one hundred strands of heavenly original energy, not to mention that one piece of spiritual stone contains a large amount of heavenly spiritual energy, no less than ten thousand strands, equivalent to one hundred million strands of heavenly original energy.

  A warrior's cultivation has reached the Earthly Realm, and the congenital true energy within his body will condense into an even more powerful True Yuan. The difference between True Yuan and True Energy is equivalent to the difference between Heavenly Spirit Qi and Heavenly Origin Qi.

  So, the strong in the Earthly Realm have a huge demand for the Heavenly and Earthly Yuan Qi. The ordinary places' Heavenly and Earthly Yuan Qi content is far from enough to satisfy the absorption of the strong in the Earthly Realm. Only in some spiritual blessed lands where the earth's veins are rich in Heavenly and Earthly Yuan Qi can they cultivate.

  However, the Ling Stone directly contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. For a strong practitioner at the Earth Stage, absorbing the Ling Stone is even more effective than cultivating in the Spiritual Blessing Land. To a strong practitioner at the Earth Stage, the Ling Stone is simply a treasure. Strong practitioners at the Heaven Stage also need it.

  Ling stones can only be found in the underground spiritual veins, but the underground spiritual veins are deeply buried and difficult to discover. Even if you're lucky enough to find one, it's hard to excavate, so ling stones are extremely rare.

  Xuantian had only seen Ling Stone when he was still in the Western Regions of Xuan House.

  Unexpectedly, Zhu Wuying actually used sixty pieces of spiritual stone to set up an array.

  It seems that the number of strong people who died under Zhu Wuying's hands is not small, and the places where Zhu Wuying has been are far from just the small place of Shen Dao Wang Chao, otherwise it would not be possible to have so many Ling stones.

  Ling stones can only be absorbed and refined by those who have produced true yuan in their bodies, that is, strong people above the earth stage. For warriors below the earth stage, ling stones are just a piece of hard stone, indestructible, even xuan-class treasures cannot cause damage to ling stones.

  Zhu Wuying had never stepped into the Earth Stage realm in his entire life, and it was clear that collecting spirit stones had no effect on him. No wonder he used them to set up arrays. Only spirit stone arrays could maintain their effectiveness for a hundred years after being set up.

  The spiritual power in the Ling Stone is the source of the 'Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Formation'.

  That six-sided black array flag was obviously the key to the 'Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Array', absorbing spiritual energy from the spirit stones and controlling the six swords.

  As for those six swords, they are the attacking tools of 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Formation', this is where the formation's true danger lies.

  The invisible force lurking in the void is the power of 'Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Formation'. The entire cave hall was shrouded by this formation, and as soon as Xuan Tian stepped into it, he would trigger the formation.

  Those six swords will instantly slash towards Xuantian and kill him.

  Xuantian carefully examined the surroundings of the cave, and couldn't help but feel strange. There was no exit, only a crack on the ground under the wall opposite him. From Xuantian's perspective, he couldn't see its width or depth.

  If this is a way out, then there's only that crack which can lead elsewhere.

  Xuantian was only over 40 meters away from the crack. At Xuantian's speed, it would take less than half a second to quickly rush into the crack.

  However, Xuan Tian did not plan to do so. Now he didn't know what the situation was like under that crack, nor did he know how powerful this 'Six Swords Absolute Killing Array' was. If Xuan Tian could easily rush through this array, then Zhu Wuying wouldn't have said it was that formidable.

  Moreover, Xuantian didn't want to rush directly into the crack either. He was very interested in the sixty spirit stones on the wall. The sixty spirit stones were more precious than any Xuanji treasure.

  "If they could get sixty pieces of spiritual stone, they would be rich. They could buy any Xuan-level healing medicine and almost fully recover from their injuries. Their cultivation would break through to the Earth Stage realm, and in this way, the Huang family would thoroughly establish itself in the Divine Sword Dynasty."

  Looking at the Ling Stone on the wall, Xuan Tian felt extremely relieved in his heart.

  Xuantian took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and stepped forward into the cave hall, entering the range of the 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Array'.

  Whoosh!

  In an instant, a dazzling light flashed, the sword closest to Xuan Tian suddenly emerged from its scabbard and struck him with a swift and flowing blow.

  "What speed!" Xuan Tian's heart was shocked.

  Although Xuan Tian had cultivated the 'Absolute Shadow Sword Technique' to a small accomplishment realm, speed was his forte, but this slash still made him feel heart palpitations.

  "Cutting waist style!"

  The 'Heavy Mountain Sword' in his hand suddenly burst into radiance, and in an instant it was gone. The next moment, a dazzling sword aura swept out horizontally.

  Clang!

  A loud explosion, a massive force, rebounded and came back, Xuan Tian's body involuntarily retreated three steps.

  "What a sharp attack, what a powerful force." Xuan Tian was greatly shocked. The power of that sword just now was much stronger than the strongest master of the Pre-Heavenly Realm's sixth peak, and almost comparable to the strongest master of the Pre-Heavenly Realm's seventh peak.

  Even with Xuan Tian's body possessing great power and his internal True Qi being extremely dense, he couldn't withstand the force of that one sword strike.

  At the same time as Xuantian Hou retreated, the long sword that had chopped down also bounced back, its body shining like jade, sparkling without compare, and was also a treasured sword.

  And it is a mid-grade treasure sword of Xuanjie.

  As long as the power of the spirit stone is not exhausted, the power of the formation will be endless. The long sword only rebounded for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, a flash of light appeared, and another sword light flew towards Xuan Tian.

  Just now, he had a fierce battle, Xuan Tian knew that the sword's attack power was extraordinary and could not be matched by force, so he could only use his wits to gain the upper hand.

  In a flash of movement, Xuan Tian's body suddenly split into sixteen figures, all of which flew towards the Ling Stone on the wall.

  Threaded Eyebrows Style

  Sixteen figures simultaneously executed a swift sword move, and suddenly the current light burst out, piercing the Ling Stone on the wall.
