Chapter 141 Entering the Sword Immortal Tomb

As soon as he thought of the benefits, Chen Ansheng was filled with motivation.

“Zheng!”

The next moment, with a thought, a silver-gray sword intent erupted and surrounded the three alien beings.

Feeling the unmatched aura of sword intent, the three alien beings bared their teeth and froze in place, no longer daring to attack.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The sword intent shot through the air, creating black spatial cracks.

“Li, li, li!”

The defenses of the three alien beings were utterly unable to withstand Chen Ansheng’s true injury sword intent, and in an instant, they were killed into three bloody figures, wailing in pain.

In their shock and fury, they attempted to break through space to escape.

Chen Ansheng flashed his figure and disappeared into the space.

“Boom!”

Three purple-bloodied figures were struck by Chen Ansheng and were thrown out from the space, crashing against the barrier behind them, unable to move.

“Young friend, quickly injure their alien souls. Once I assist you in controlling them, we must act swiftly to avoid any mishaps!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Ansheng once again gathered his Celestial Soul Sword to strike at the alien beings’ alien souls.

The alien beings were in a state of dying, making it impossible for them to resist Chen Ansheng’s Celestial Soul Sword attack. After suffering heavy damage, they looked extremely pained, instinctively using their heads to strike the barrier as if they wanted to commit suicide!

“Puppet Mark!”

Seeing this, Chen Ansheng immediately formed three Puppet Marks and sent them into the alien beings’ minds.

However, Chen Ansheng’s Puppet Marks truly could not attach themselves to their alien souls.

At this moment, Ji Hongfu acted.

He mobilized a strand of alien principles to forcibly tear open a rift in their alien souls. “Chen, young friend, send the marks into that rift!”

Chen Ansheng responded to the voice and sent the Puppet Marks into the rift in the alien souls.

After the Puppet Marks entered, a bizarre purple aura suddenly erupted within their alien souls, trying to expel the Puppet Marks.

Ji Hongfu then guided a thread of Soul-Connecting Principles to instantly repair the rift.

The alien souls twisted in fury but after struggling for a moment, fell silent and stopped moving.

Chen Ansheng sensed that he had completely controlled the three alien beings.

“Success.”

Chen Ansheng murmured, but he couldn’t smile at that moment.

Because he felt that controlling these three beings with powerful alien souls was somewhat overwhelming for his mental strength.

If this situation continued for a long time, he was even worried that his Celestial Soul might collapse because of it.

Ji Hongfu also sensed Chen Ansheng’s fatigue and said, “Chen, young friend, the mental burden these three puppets place on you is heavy. You should temporarily isolate your controlling intention; let the rest be handled by me.”

“Mhm, okay.”

Chen Ansheng nodded.

However, he only isolated two of them, leaving one for himself to control.

“Elder Ji, I’ll take this one to the Sword Immortal Tomb to scout ahead.” Chen Ansheng said.

Ji Hongfu expressed some concern, “Chen, young friend, once you leave the Dragon Bone Abyss, your aura will no longer be restricted by this place. Be careful when you take it outside; we need to avoid drawing the attention of unknown presences in the Burial Spirit Valley.”

After a brief consideration, Chen Ansheng replied, “I suppose it’s fine. If that unknown presence in the Burial Spirit Valley could come out, it would have done so long ago.”

Ji Hongfu slowly nodded, “You have a point, but you must still exercise caution. After all, the Burial Spirit Valley is very peculiar; even I cannot probe into it with my soul sense.”

Chen Ansheng assured, “Don’t worry, Elder Ji. I will be careful. If anything goes wrong, I have my own ways to escape.”

“Good, that’s good.” Ji Hongfu nodded, then took away the two immobile puppets and said, “I will investigate the mysteries of these alien beings first. Once you retrieve the Ascension Pool, bring it to me for repair.”

Chen Ansheng responded and clasped his hands, then flew away with one alien being toward the outside of the Dragon Bone Abyss.

……

After flying for a moment in the air, Chen Ansheng noticed that the alien being following him had already healed its injuries.

“Impressive, impressive.”

Chen Ansheng clicked his tongue in admiration.

“You are my puppet now, so I might as well give you a name.” Chen Ansheng pondered and said to himself, “You have purple skin and sharp teeth; let’s just call you Purple Demon.”

After a while, Chen Ansheng expanded his divine sense, covering the Mystic Realm.

In this entire realm, only three forbidden zones could not be penetrated by his divine sense.

“Purple Demon, let’s go!”

Since he was accompanied by the Purple Demon, Chen Ansheng did not summon the Black Dragon. He decided to let it recover first, due to its loyal protection.

Chen Ansheng and the Purple Demon advanced through the void and soon landed at the outskirts of the Sword Immortal Tomb.

Ahead, streams of radiant light surged up, and the sword intent contained within caused Chen Ansheng’s sword essence to stir restlessly within him.

“As Elder Ji mentioned, a powerful sword cultivator once fell in this Ascension Pool; it certainly appears to be true.”

Chen Ansheng was secretly astonished.

That figure had died countless years ago, yet even the leftover trace of sword intent caused him discomfort; one could imagine how strong they were while alive.

“Purple Demon, go in and take a look!”

Even though Chen Ansheng was now at the True Immortal stage, he remained very cautious. He first sent Purple Demon in; this habitual caution was not to be discarded, lest he stumbled due to carelessness one day.

Chen Ansheng connected his consciousness to the Purple Demon and entered the ocean of radiance.

After entering, Chen Ansheng did not discover anything unusual.

As he moved through a grove, a gust of wind suddenly blew, causing withered yellow leaves from the old tree to fall.

Some of the leaves happened to land on Purple Demon.

As the leaves slid off, they actually left fine blood streaks on Purple Demon’s skin.

Chen Ansheng noticed this strange phenomenon and was astonished, “How can these leaves be so sharp that they can cut through Purple Demon’s skin!”

How strong was Purple Demon’s defense? Before Chen Ansheng mastered True Injury Sword Intent, he had to expend all his effort, along with a treasure-level sword, to harm its skin.

Yet these unremarkable withered leaves managed to cause wounds on its body simply by falling. It was truly astonishing!

“No wonder people do not dare to enter this forbidden zone; even True Nine Realm human cultivators would be cut to pieces by these leaves.”

Of course, as a True Immortal, Chen Ansheng’s defensive power was on a different level than a True Nine Realm cultivator, so he was not afraid of these leaves.

However, since the path ahead remained unknown, out of caution, Chen Ansheng didn’t send his true self in but controlled the Purple Demon to explore forward.

After passing through this forest area, there wasn’t a single undamaged spot on Purple Demon’s body.

Fortunately, it had an abnormal recovery ability, and after resting for a moment in an open area outside the forest, it had fully recovered.

“That should be the Ascension Pool.”

After continuing for several hours and traversing through dense mists and dangers, Chen Ansheng saw ahead a bronze square pool surrounded by many scattered bones.

Chen Ansheng directed Purple Demon towards the Ascension Pool.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Suddenly, several terrifying sword qi erupted from an unknown source and actually severed one of Purple Demon’s arms.
