Chapter 1808: Chapter 1807: Subduing the Zhanlu Sword Is Difficult!

The ”Hidden World” within the Mortal World is already on the brink of collapse. After the death of the Sword Emperor from Japan’s Hokushin Ittō-ryū, the ruthless hidden monk Roma Vulcan, who had been in hiding for many years, took action. He successively slaughtered the Pusuo Sect Leader of Indian Solomon, the Clan Leader of the Zeus family in Greece, the Pharaoh of Egypt, and the Pope of the Vatican, annihilating their physical and spiritual forms completely!

Moreover, just as Roma Vulcan had speculated, these seven strongest people in Earth’s secular world, during their long years of entering and exiting this Hidden World, had become connected with the mysterious laws within. This connection was intangible, something very few of them realized. As long as most of them were annihilated, the laws of the Hidden World would be greatly shaken. At that moment, the secrets of the Hidden World would be completely exposed!

At this time, inside the palace crafted from Cloud Stone in the Hidden World, this Cloud Stone palace was incessantly trembling, with continuous signs of stone cracking. It seemed, due to the great changes in the Hidden World laws, this Cloud Stone palace was also about to shatter. Within this palace, a powerful force pervaded, seemingly dominating its rise and fall!

Ye Tianchen never expected that this Hidden World was actually a Formation, and the guardian of this Array Formation Array Eye was surprisingly one of the ten Ancient Divine Swords, the Zhanlu Sword.

From the mouth of the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm, Ye Tianchen learned some legends about the Zhanlu Sword. Of course, no one knew for sure if these legends were true, for they had always circulated within the Mortal World. However, as Ye Tianchen learned more, he believed that both Earth’s secular world and the Ancient Martial World had many legends, and these legends weren’t baseless; there was some truth in them!

”Senior, is this an indestructible sword without the slightest killing intent? But why does such a powerful force erupt from it?” Ye Tianchen asked, somewhat puzzled.

”Perhaps the legends of the Mortal World are mistaken, or perhaps this sword, having been used to suppress the Array Eye for too long, feels somewhat aggrieved and is now about to emerge, a sort of release!” The Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm mused.

”The ten Ancient Divine Swords, each with its unique power, have numerous legends. I truly wonder what would happen if someone managed to gather all ten Ancient Divine Swords,” Ye Tianchen said with a furrowed brow.

”This is a world-shocking treasure sword. Let’s try to see if we can obtain it!” the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm nodded and said.

Ye Tianchen glanced at the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm. Although he already possessed four of the ten Ancient Divine Swords, this didn’t mean that the ten Ancient Divine Swords should all belong to him. Anything, whether Cultivation Resources of the Martial Arts World or treasures, belonged to whoever could obtain them. Presently, those within the palace were Ye Tianchen, the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm, the man with the knife on his back, and Roma Vulcan. Who could claim the Zhanlu Sword was still unknown. More importantly, for a treasure with spiritual attributes, or a Divine Sword with spiritual intelligence, it might have some degree of autonomous choice!

Pa!

The Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm made a move, immediately extending his right hand towards the Zhanlu Sword floating at the palace’s center. At this moment, the Zhanlu Sword, hovering mid-air and emanating immense power, continued its oscillation, showing no sign of leaving!

Pong!

Blocked! When the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm reached towards the Zhanlu Sword floating in the palace’s center, the Zhanlu Sword emitted a force that stopped the elder’s hand.

”Such powerful force, it feels as if it could just throw someone away!” The Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm frowned and said.

”Be careful, senior. Each of the ten Ancient Divine Swords has its distinct power, its own force, and cannot be underestimated!” Ye Tianchen reminded from the side.

”Rest assured, I will persist. If it is not destined for me to be connected with the Zhanlu Sword, I will not force it!” The Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm nodded and said.

Hua!

The Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm’s right hand trembled. Although blocked by the force emitted from the Zhanlu Sword, it was impossible for the Great Elder to give up on the Zhanlu Sword so easily. He had not yet exerted his full power, so how could he abandon such a peerless Divine Sword?

Weng!

In an instant, after the Great Elder of the Chinese Kunlun Secret Realm’s right palm was obstructed, he shook his right hand, immediately unleashing a powerful Martial Arts True Power, spreading towards the Zhanlu Sword, seemingly intent on forcibly subjugating it!

Suddenly, the Zhanlu Sword erupted with several powerful forces, creating some space and blocking the Martial Arts True Power of the Great Elder from the Kunlun Secret Realm of China. This caused the Great Elder to frown and he couldn’t help but say, ”I didn’t expect the power of this Zhanlu Sword itself to be so formidable. To hold it in my hands won’t be easy!”

”One of the ten Divine Swords of the ancient era, each one is extraordinary. This Zhanlu Sword slightly differs from the rumors, it’s indeed difficult to deal with!” Ye Tianchen said.

”I’ll try again, if it’s really not possible, it means I’m not destined for this Zhanlu Sword, and it will be up to the two of you!” the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China said with a generous smile.

Snap!

Just as the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China finished speaking, he also explored his left palm, transforming both of his palms into powerful forces, condensing them into two palms of Martial Arts True Power, reaching out towards the Zhanlu Sword from both sides, creating a situation where the Zhanlu Sword had no escape. It’s impossible to easily block it!

Buzz!

However, just as the Great Elder’s hands reached out towards the Zhanlu Sword from both sides, with a front and rear pincers movement, the power emanating from the Zhanlu Sword trembled, forming a beam of light that enveloped the entire Zhanlu Sword like a sword armor, shielding it entirely. No matter how the Great Elder attempted to exert Martial Arts True Power, it was impossible to seize it, for it was always blocked by the sword armor created by this power.

”Stop!” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm shouted with all his might, clenching his teeth, calling out the word ”stop,” seemingly trying to calm the Zhanlu Sword and grasp it!

Bam!

Who would have thought, with a loud bang, the Martial Arts True Qi the Great Elder had condensed in his hands was shattered forcibly. The Zhanlu Sword continued to float in the center of the palace, giving a sense that no one could hold it. This astonished Ye Tianchen and the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm. Neither expected the resistance of the Zhanlu Sword to be so strong, especially its independent spirit, always protecting itself from being easily acquired. This strong spiritual nature and the powerful force it emitted were indeed shocking!

The attempt failed, as the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm fully exerted himself, trying to subdue the Zhanlu Sword and hold it as his own treasure, but he failed. Despite using all his might, he acknowledged it was impossible. However, being a man of high realm, the Great Elder didn’t force the situation and instead smiled, saying, ”It seems this Zhanlu Sword doesn’t recognize me. Next, it’s up to you!”

Ye Tianchen took a glance at the Zhanlu Sword floating not far away and then looked at the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm, saying, ”Senior, our perspectives differ. If I desire something, I will go all out, and won’t give up even if it means risking my life!”

”Perhaps this is why you may go farther and achieve more than me. Feel free to try!” the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm said with a smile, nodding his head.

Eyeing the floating Zhanlu Sword, Ye Tianchen withdrew the Taie Sword in his right hand into his body, slowly extending his right palm, moving towards the Zhanlu Sword in the same manner as the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm. Unsurprisingly, Ye Tianchen’s right palm was also blocked by the power of the Zhanlu Sword. However, unlike the Great Elder, Ye Tianchen did not continue to forcibly exert Martial Arts True Power to grab it, but lightly shook his right hand, and a rune enveloped the Zhanlu Sword tightly.

”Hmm, using Rune Power might work!” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm approved, nodding.

”I’m just attempting this. To hold this Zhanlu Sword in my hands won’t be easy!” Ye Tianchen replied.

Bang!

As expected by Ye Tianchen, when he used a rune with his right hand to envelop the Zhanlu Sword, just as it was about to completely envelop the Zhanlu Sword, its power seemed to erupt, instantly shattering Ye Tianchen’s Martial Arts True Power and Rune Power. The force was so powerful that it exceeded Ye Tianchen’s imagination.

The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm frowned, saying, ”It seems this Zhanlu Sword has been used as a treasure to suppress the Array Formation Array Eye for too long, and now it is about to come into the world, its own power erupts with a hint of resentment. It’s likely impossible to subdue it using Divine Skills!”

”Indeed, forcibly subduing it with Divine Skills might even cause the Zhanlu Sword to flee!” Ye Tianchen said, looking at the gently floating Zhanlu Sword.

”What do you plan to do next?” the Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm asked.

Ye Tianchen smiled faintly, not continuing to display any divine skills, but instead walking step by step towards the Zhanlu Sword, steadily approaching this Divine Sword... (To be continued.
