Chapter 140: Dragon Captive Escapes (Part 2)

  Blocked the attack of the six sword edges, Xuantian had a sense of relief after the disaster.

  Towards the Ling Stone on the wall, Xuan Tian's heart no longer had any greedy thoughts. In the 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Array', staying one more second would mean one more second of danger. The attack from those six precious swords forming a sword array was truly too terrifying.

  Taking a deep breath, the innate true energy that had been shaking inside his body flowed smoothly under the guidance of Xuantian. His legs bent and straightened in a swift motion, and Xuantian's figure shot towards the crack on the ground beneath the wall opposite him like an arrow.

  The speed of the six treasured swords was so fast that it reached an extreme point, and in the void, they were enveloped by the power of the formation. The six treasured swords seemed to be grasped by six invisible giant hands, and after a brief rebound, they flew towards Xuan Tian once again.

  This time, the six treasured swords struck out simultaneously from different directions, each sword move unlike before. However, they still formed a sword array, with the six sword tips connected in unison, containing the grandeur of heaven and earth, aiming to chop Xuantian into pieces.

  The sword's blade had yet to arrive, but its intense and unparalleled sword intent was already surging towards Xuanyuan like a raging storm.

  The intensity of the sword intent is around third-order, much weaker than the fourth-order sword intent in the "Sword Intent Covers the Sky Array". Xuan Tian has now grasped second-order sword intent. Although its intensity is much weaker than third-order sword intent, the second-order sword intent can calm his mind and control his body's reactions, which is sufficient.

  Those six sword tips came extremely quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they chopped to within three meters of Xuanyuan's body.

  Xuantian had already charged to the center of the cave, still half a distance away from the wall opposite him. However, under the attack of the six sword tips that formed the sword array, he did not have the opportunity to directly charge into the ground fissure this time.

  Heart-piercing style, throat-piercing style, eyebrow-piercing style, waist-chopping style, headless style, body-splitting style.

  In an instant, Xuan Tian once again executed the sixth sword move of the "Absolute Shadow Sword Technique".

  With the experience of last time, this time's display was faster, like lightning flashing. In an instant, six sword moves were completed in one breath.

  For 'Absolute Shadow Sword Technique', Xuan Tian was even more adept at it.

  Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong——

  Another six loud cracking sounds came, the huge backlash force made Xuan Tian's whole body shake violently, and his tiger mouth was extremely painful, with blood flowing straight out.

  That six-way sword edge formed a sword array attack. Containing the grand momentum of heaven and earth, its power is unmatched, even if Xuan Tian has an arm strength of over 10,000 jin, with a physique that is unparalleled in strength. It's still hard to withstand.

  If Xuan Tian hadn't cultivated the 'Nine Forging Technique', his physical body would be far superior to other warriors, or else he might have been shaken to death by those six sword auras. Even a late-stage Pre-Heaven expert might not be able to withstand it for long.

  "No wonder Zhu Wuying said that the 'Six Swords Absolute Killing Formation' is not something that can be broken by anyone who is not a strong earth-level cultivator. It seems that it's not an exaggeration, even for a pre-heavenly peak expert, in this formation, they would only have the power to defend themselves and not enough to break the formation."

  Xuantian faced the dark path in the middle. As for the power of 'Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Formation', he had a direct and profound experience.

  He blocked the sword array's attack for the second time. Xuán Tiān's figure burst forth once more, his body like lightning, arriving beside the ground fissure.

  The fissure is about ten meters wide and at least thirty meters deep, with an underground river flowing beneath it.

  Those six treasured swords rebounded slightly, then closely followed the mysterious heaven and flew in to slash, again with six different sword moves, but what was the same was that they still formed a sword array.

  After withstanding twice in a row, Xuantian suffered a bit of loss and didn't dare to forcibly withstand again. His body leaped forward and suddenly jumped down into the underground river below the crack at high speed.

  The six-path sword suddenly fell empty and split at the place where Xuantian had just stood.

  The entire cave hall shook violently, and the stone at the attacked location cracked and broke into pieces. The rocks fell down one after another behind Xuan Tian's body.

  Xuantian was still in the void, a sword stabbed out to the side of the stone wall, 'Zhongyue Sword' directly pierced into the stone wall, Xuantian's falling body suddenly stopped.

  With a lift of his left hand, a mid-grade treasure sword appeared in the void. Xuan Tian continuously slashed down with several swords, and the sword's edge burst forth. The dozen or so boulders falling from above, regardless of size, were all sliced into fragments that fell to either side, unable to harm Xuan Tian in the slightest.

  He jumped down into the crevice, Xuan Tian had already left the range of the 'Six Swords Absolute Kill Array', and those six sword lights finally didn't follow to slash over again.

  "'Six Swords Absolute Slaughter Formation', I've managed to get through it," Xuan Tian let out a long sigh, getting through this formation wasn't easy, and at the same time, he felt regretful for those spirit stones and precious artifacts.

  "One day, when my strength is sufficient, I will definitely come back here again, break the 'Six Swords Absolute Killing Array', and take all sixty pieces of spirit stone and six pieces of Xuan-stage treasure swords into my hands, which will be a huge gain."

  In the heart of Xuantian, there is a secret passage. Although I don't want to give it up, my current strength is not enough, so I can only leave for now and come back to take it when my strength is sufficient in the future.

  Glancing down at the underground river below, the water was flowing. Following this underground river should lead to a way out.

  Xuantian held a Xuanji-grade sword in each hand, which could easily pierce the stone wall. The two swords alternated in piercing the wall, and Xuantian slowly descended along the stone wall, soon arriving at the water's surface.

  The water of this river is very clear, but the light under the water is not good, and you can't see the situation in the water, nor can you tell how deep or shallow it is.

  Xuantian held a treasured sword in his hand and inserted it into the stone wall, suspending himself above the water's surface. He quietly waited for several minutes, cocking his ear to listen.

  Both ears slightly moved, as if there was a faint sound, transmitted into Xuan Tian's ear, the water surface, transmitted out a slight ripple.

  "There is a demonic beast." Xuan Tian's spirit shook, and he felt a fierce and murderous intent.

  Pfft——

  Suddenly, the water surface splashed in all directions, a huge head, with its bloody mouth wide open, pounced towards Xuantiang.

  This blood basin has a huge mouth, extremely large, with huge fangs in its mouth, shining coldly, compared to the lower-grade treasure of the Xuan stage, it looks even sharper and harder.

  After the blood basin and large mouth are two emerald green giant eyes, and further back is a huge rhinoceros-like body.

  Third-level demon beast overlord - Emerald Gaze Crocodile.

  At a glance, he saw the origin of this demon beast, like the Steel Armor Demon Cow, it was a third-level demon beast overlord, but its strength was slightly inferior to that of the Steel Armor Demon Cow.

  Third-level demon beasts, also have different strengths, some are equivalent to ordinary innate five-layer warriors, some are equivalent to powerful innate five-layer warriors, such as the Azure Mirror Water Alligator, some are equivalent to top-notch innate five-layer warriors, such as the Steel Armor Demon Bull, and there are others that surpass innate five-layer warriors by a level, comparable to high-ranking innate six-layer experts, such as the Black Line King Snake.

  The sharp teeth of the Bi Jing Shui E are more sharp and solid than the lower-grade Xuan Jie treasure, slightly inferior to the mid-grade Xuan Jie treasure. For warriors in the early or middle stage of the Pre-Heavenly realm, they have a huge destructive power and can be used as materials for refining Xuan Jie treasures.

  This green-eyed alligator, in this underground river, had never encountered a human warrior before, and relied on eating other underwater demons to fill its belly. Today, it saw a new prey, and was very excited, opening its bloody big mouth, and pounced towards Xuan Tian.

  Xuantian let out a light hum, with his current strength, the third-level demon beast overlord was no longer in his eyes. He held a mid-grade Xuan-stage sword in one hand, suspended on the stone wall, and the "Heavy Mountain Sword" in the other hand suddenly burst out with a sword aura, and with a single slash, he chopped down fiercely.

  As fast as lightning.

  The giant mouth of the Bi Jing Shui E had not yet touched Xuan Tian's body when the 'Zhong Yue Sword' had already reached the neck of the Bi Jing Shui E.

  The thick innate true energy, as well as the massive strength of over 10,000 kilograms, was infused into the "Heavy Mountain Sword". Even with the astonishing defensive power of the Bi Qing Water Alligator, its neck was one of its weaker points. The huge head was instantly beheaded by Xuan Tian.

  One-hit kill.

  The green-eyed alligator let out a miserable cry but before it could even finish, its head was chopped off and it died instantly.

  A huge skull, still with a bloody big mouth, quickly fell down, and before it even hit the water, Xuan Tian struck again with his sword, splitting the alligator's skull in two. A demon core, slightly larger than a fist, was revealed.

  "Re岳剑" rose to the challenge, and the jade-like water alligator's demon core flew up, falling into Xuan Tian's hands. The third-level demon beast overlord's demon core was not cheap, and it was stored in Xuan Tian's spatial ring.

  He killed a crocodile with piercing eyes, and Xuan Tian waited for nearly ten minutes. Seeing that the water surface was calm again, he jumped into the water and swam along the direction of the river.

  In the surrounding area, it was all the territory of this green-eyed crocodile, and even the green-eyed crocodile was beheaded by Xuan Tian's sword. Other monsters saw it and were scared away, so in the water, Xuan Tian did not encounter any monster attacks.

  Along the river, swimming forward for more than three thousand meters, the water flow in front suddenly became urgent. Looking ahead, the river water disappeared and fell rapidly downwards, forming a waterfall.

  Xuantian followed the waterfall down, this waterfall, only over twenty meters, fell into a pool of water, this pool is quite large, with an area of over twenty meters square, except for one side that was flying down the waterfall, the rest were stone walls.

  Since all the underground river water has flowed into this pool, and the water surface of the pool has not risen, it indicates that there should be a passage under the pool, leading to another place.

  Xuantian held his breath and dove into the depths of the water pool. With Xuantian's current cultivation, he could hold his breath for a long time. The pre-heavenly true energy inside his body circulated continuously, allowing him to stay underwater for two or three hours without exchanging air.

  Under the water of the pond, there is indeed a passage leading elsewhere.

  Xuan Tian walked along the underwater passageway for about ten minutes, and as he moved forward, the passage became wider and brighter, giving him a feeling of walking out of a cave.

  The light ahead is not only getting brighter, but also shining with sunlight, visible, and indeed has left the ground and arrived at the bottom of a lake. Ahead, some aquatic plants are gradually appearing, becoming denser and more lush.

  Xuantian walked out of the underwater cave, the water grass beside him was twice as tall as he was. He stood among the water grass, and from above, not even half a shadow could be seen.

  After being trapped underground for nine days, he finally arrived outside. Xuan Tian was about to burst out of the lake bottom and into the sky, but when he parted the water grass on his head, in an instant, he was stunned, as if time had stopped, turning him into a statue.

  Only twenty meters ahead, a snow-white jade-like girl's body was seen, naked and swimming in the lake.
