Chapter 956 Heavenly Sword Summit (2)

Jian Feng explained further. "More than ten thousand kilometers around the Heavenly Sword Summit has transformed into a restricted area similar to the mythical realm. Anyone below the Monarch Profound Realm could enter it. However, it requires a special token."

He took a sword-shaped token out and handed it to Yun Lintian. "This is your token, Brother Lin."

Yun Lintian politely took it and looked at it carefully. The token was made of an unknown stone he couldn't recognize and contained a terrifying sword might within it.

"Every year, thirty tokens would appear around the summit. Our palace founder had decided to open it every five years. That means only one hundred and fifty people could enter it." Jian Feng said. "Our palace accounts for eighty, and the rest go to various factions."

"I see." Yun Lintian nodded gently.

"Because something happened to the Northern Continent. The quotas from the Sky Throne Profound Academy and the Frozen Moon Palace are currently vacant. So, I can give out more if you need it." Jian Feng said and looked at Yun Qianxue and Shen Liqiu.

"We won't be polite then." Shen Liqiu's eyes lit up.

Jian Feng took another two tokens out and handed them to Yun Qianxue and Shen Liqiu.

"When you enter the restricted area, you will face a total of three stages in order to reach the top. In the first stage, everyone has to collect a hundred Saint Profound Beast Cores and place them in front of a sacrificial altar. You will see it later." Jian Feng explained.

"In the second stage, everyone must comprehend the mystery behind the thirty-six sword tablets. As long as you successfully comprehend all of them, you will be automatically transported to the final stage."

He paused for a moment and said. "Throughout history, only ten people managed to enter the final stage. My master and the current palace master are among them."

Yun Lintian and the others were surprised to hear this. For thousands of years, there were no more than ten people. It could be seen how difficult it was.

Jian Feng said further. "According to my master, you will face terrifying sword intents in the final stage. You have to solve all of them in order to reach the Heavenly Sword… Of course. No one has ever succeeded."

He turned to Yun Lintian and said. "With your superb comprehension, you have a high chance to succeed, Brother Lin."

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and asked. "There must be a reason behind your master's actions, right? I don't think she would teach me just because she sees my talent."

Before Jian Feng could say anything, Qing Xiaoting slowly walked over while saying. "I want you to promise me one thing. Let me take a look at the Heavenly Sword."

Yun Lintian was taken aback and asked with a strange expression. "You talk like I can certainly take the sword out."

Qing Xiaoting took a deep look at him and said meaningfully. "If you can't do it, then no one in this world can."

Yun Lintian had doubt in his heart. Before this, she still looked down on him and told him to leave, yet why was she so confident in him now? Was it because he managed to comprehend the Heaven Piercing Sword Art?

However, he didn't think it was the only reason. There must be something behind it.

"Alright. I promise you." He nodded gently. "The problem is whether I can leave the summit peacefully."

"You don't have to worry about it. You will understand when the time comes." Qing Xiaoting said plainly.

She paused briefly and said further. "We will leave in a while."

Yun Lintian said no more and closed his eyes, adjusting his condition.

Time passed by very quickly. Half an hour later, Yun Lintian and the others immediately set off toward the tallest peak at the end of everyone's line of sight.

Along the way, Yun Lintian could see various people flocking toward the Heavenly Sword Summit. These people were clearly unqualified to participate in it. Although they couldn't enter the restricted zone, just looking from afar was enough for them.

Soon, Yun Lintian's group arrived at the foot of the ancient mountain with a dense forest. The summit hid behind the thick clouds, unable to see anything on it.

At first glance, Yun Lintian could feel a mysterious aura shrouding the entire mountain. It was a unique aura unlike anything he had encountered before.

At this moment, all the participants had already arrived. Those familiar faces like Weilan Tian, Xing Renshu, Du Huanfeng, and Lei Jun were all here.

Standing in the middle, Jian Xu swept his gaze over everyone and said solemnly. "Since everyone has arrived, I shall start the Heavenly Sword Summit."

Clang!

As his voice fell, a low hum of a sword suddenly resounded, and the entire mountain abruptly exuded an unfathomable aura. At the same time, a thick layer of a faint golden barrier emerged around the mountain, preventing people from entering.

"I believe everyone has already studied the rules before coming here. So I won't talk about it again." Jian Xu said. "Those with tokens, step out."

Yun Lintian turned to Mu Qiuxue and said. "Take care of them for me."

Mu Qiuxue held Qingqing's tiny hand and said softly. "Don't worry."

Yun Lintian nodded and patted Linlin gently. "Wait for me here. Big brother will return soon. Remember, do not reveal your power no matter what."

"I know. Be careful, Big Brother Yun." Linlin licked his palm gently and jumped onto Mu Qiuxue's shoulder.

Yun Lintian turned to Yun Qianxue and Shen Liqiu. "Let's go."

The three of them stepped out and stood behind the group of one hundred and fifty participants.

Jian Xu scanned them for one last time and slowly rose into the air. His white hair fluttered as a raging wind kicked up. The might radiated from him instantly swept over all eight directions, enveloping the heavens and earth.

At the center of his brows, a fearsome and incredibly dazzling light radiated. A moment later, glistening golden light shimmered around him as many ancient runes manifested in the air, containing boundless might, channeling streams of energy that blasted into the golden barrier.

Boom!

At that instant, the entire space shook. Boundless runic light shone brightly on the barrier, forming the runic lines of a grand formation.

When everything ended, Jian Xu turned to the participants and said. "Hold your token and step into the formation."
