The Prohibited Formation Array was specifically refined to enhance the might of Divine Artifacts.
The purpose of each prohibition differs, and naturally, the form of the Prohibited Formation Arrays is diverse as well.
Listening to the words of Elder Xiao Supreme Elder and then gazing at the colossal sword body towering ten thousand meters high, dwarfing giant mountains, Ye Chen took a deep breath.
The Divine Sword, a sword among Divine Artifacts!
Simply the prohibitions inside this Divine Artifact's sword body required Heavenly Saints to fly into them to explore, and even they could not completely traverse it!
Countless Prohibited Formation Arrays only allow late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm experts to break through the thirty-eight formations at the very bottom.
At this thought, Ye Chen felt his mind surge with excitement.
One day, when he could step into the realm of the Void Sky True God, just the mention of a single weapon would enthrall countless individuals in the Heavenly Saint Realm, some even venturing inside for hundreds or thousands of years. That sensation was truly the feeling of a mighty being!
With his mind greatly stirred, Ye Chen could no longer resist the urge to fly into the Divine Artifact's sword and witness the wondrous Prohibited Formation Arrays refined by the Void Sky True God.
Seizing every opportunity to cultivate and continuously strengthen his power, his entry into the realm of the Void Sky True God would be even more likely!
Seeing Ye Chen's eager gaze, Elder Xiao Supreme Elder smiled.
"Ye Chen, I will engrave the details about those Prohibited Formation Arrays onto a Divine Sense Law Plaque for you to understand them more thoroughly," He said.
"Additionally, because you are in the Spirit Sea Realm, you can only cultivate inside for thirty days' worth of time dilatation before being rejected from it. And once your opportunity for time dilatation is exhausted, even if you advance to the Rotating Pill Realm and re-enter the Divine Sword, you will no longer have the chance for time dilatation."
"Do you plan to finish cultivating the thirty days of time dilatation in one go, or would you like to save some opportunity for time dilatation and wait to cultivate it after you've advanced to the Rotating Pill Realm? After all, you could cultivate for one hundred days' worth of time in the Rotating Pill Realm,"
"If you want to split your cultivation, I can give you another chance to enter the Divine Sword after you reach the Rotating Pill Realm," he offered.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen responded, "I'll just cultivate the entire thirty days of time dilatation at once."
Cultivating for thirty days would only account for three days outside, giving Ye Chen an extra twenty-seven days of cultivation time.
Although that was twenty-seven days less than the one hundred days available in the Rotating Pill Realm, Ye Chen didn't wish to split the opportunity.
After all, the main feature of this Divine Artifact's sword was its offensive capability; the time dilatation offered in the Heavenly Saint Realm was only three hundred days, which wasn't even better than the opportunity Ye Chen had received in the Ancient God Tower.
Ye Chen's purpose in entering the Divine Sword was to challenge the Prohibited Formation Arrays inside to enhance his combat abilities; the chance for time dilatation was secondary to that.
Instead of waiting to use this opportunity when in the Rotating Pill Realm for a slightly longer period of time dilatation, it was better to fully commit to cultivating now to improve his strength thoroughly.
Ye Chen was about to join the First Holy Temple of the Heavenly Sacred Palace, a place with numerous top geniuses from across the Barbaric Wilderness Continent, and he would also have to face the imminent war between the Southern Territory and the Western Wilderness.
Whether competing with the infinite geniuses of the First Holy Temple or contributing in the war between the Southern Territory and the Western Wilderness, Ye Chen needed to quickly increase his strength to an even more formidable level.
Of course, he cherished each opportunity to enhance his abilities, instead of postponing it for later.
Hearing Ye Chen's decision, Elder Xiao Supreme Elder nodded his head.
Mu Qingqing, who was standing by, smiled and said, "Ye Chen, I thought the same as you. When I first entered this Divine Sword, I too completed thirty days of cultivation all at once. I didn't want to keep a few days for later when I reach the Rotating Pill Realm.
At the same time, thunderous sounds of battle resonated within Ye Chen's mind, like roaring thunder. If it weren't for Ye Chen's sufficiently powerful Divine Sense, perhaps the mere sound of this evil Qi would have knocked him out!
This was the Sea of Evil Qi formed by the Divine Blood once tainted by the Divine Sword!
Having endured for thousands of years, the fact that the Sea of Evil Qi still remained so intense made Ye Chen realize how terrifying it must have been when the Divine Sword first fell.
No wonder Elder Xiao Supreme Elder said that at the time, even late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm existences dared not approach it!
The might of Divine Blood, the might of the Void Sky True God, just the Divine Blood alone was this terrifying!
"Ye Chen, get used to this Sea of Evil Qi. In a moment, we will fly down into the midst of the Sea of Evil Qi below the Divine Sword," Elder Xiao Supreme Elder spoke to Ye Chen as they flew towards the Divine Sword.
Elder Xiao Supreme Elder had already protected Mu Qingqing, but he did not shield Ye Chen; instead, he allowed Ye Chen to adapt to this terrifying Sea of Evil Qi.
After all, if Ye Chen was to challenge the inside of the Divine Sword, he couldn't always rely on others for protection.
Ye Chen nodded, without using his true energy to block the assault of the Sea of Evil Qi but instead biting down and adapting to this terrifying Sea of Evil Qi, sensing the thousand-year-old remnants of Divine Blood, feeling the ever-closer residual might of the Divine Sword!
Just as Ye Chen, Elder Xiao Supreme Elder, and Mu Qingqing flew into the rolling red Sea of Evil Qi below the Divine Sword, "whoosh whoosh whoosh," dozens of figures flew towards the trio from within the Sea of Evil Qi.
Upon seeing Elder Xiao Supreme Elder, all of these figures halted in the void and bowed to him.
Elder Xiao Supreme Elder nodded at these people and then began to explain to Ye Chen, "These are the Protector Sword Disciples of the Tai'a Sword Sect, responsible for guarding the Divine Sword. Although no one can move the Divine Sword, without our sect's permission, others cannot come close to it."
Ye Chen nodded and looked at these people.
He saw that all of these dozens of people were in the Rotating Pill Realm, but each of their auras was terrifyingly powerful; Ye Chen even felt that despite his ability to fight late-stage Rotating Pill Realm warriors, he probably couldn't handle them.
Warriors who could stay in the Sea of Evil Qi all year round are indeed extraordinary!
Then, Elder Xiao Supreme Elder looked towards the leader among these people and said, "Lu Jia, how many are currently cultivating inside the Divine Sword?" Continue reading on m|v-l'e -novelhall.net
The leader, a sword-bearing youth in brown clothing, responded upon hearing Elder Xiao Supreme Elder's question, "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, currently there are thirty-five disciples challenging the Prohibited Formation Arrays inside the Divine Sword.
In the Sea of Evil Qi below, there are thirteen disciples preparing to enter the Divine Sword, bombarding the 'Blood Ignition Fruit' in preparation."
"Forty-eight people, that's quite a few," Elder Xiao Supreme Elder nodded, "Lu Jia, this is Ye Chen. He will also be entering the Divine Sword for cultivation this time. Take him down below to bombard the 'Blood Ignition Fruit' as well."
Elder Xiao Supreme Elder introduced Ye Chen to the leader, Lu Jia.
"Ye Chen?" Lu Jia's eyes directly turned towards Ye Chen.
A youth personally brought by the most powerful Elder Xiao Supreme Elder of the entire Tai'a Sword Sect, this made Lu Jia regard him as extremely significant.
Ye Chen smiled back at Lu Jia.
However, Ye Chen was thinking, "Lu Jia said that there are thirteen disciples preparing to enter the Divine Sword, bombarding the 'Blood Ignition Fruit'. Elder Xiao Supreme Elder also has Lu Jia take me to bombard the Blood Ignition Fruit, so what exactly is this 'Blood Ignition Fruit'?"
"Why do they have to bombard the Blood Ignition Fruit before entering the Divine Sword?"
Ye Chen's gaze turned towards the rolling red Sea of Evil Qi below, curious to see what the Blood Ignition Fruit actually looked like.
