182: Chapter 182 Sky Tomb
Chi Anlin walked up to an ancient Heaven-rank sword and grabbed it directly, but the next second, he was stunned in place.
Before him, the Sword Intent had transformed into a human figure.
"I am Luo Yangyu of the human race. This sword is the Soul-Extinguishing Sword, capable of slaying gods and severing souls!"
Luo Yangyu swung the long sword in his hand. The sword qi seemed formless as it slashed forward. The next second, the Sword Intent suddenly exploded, carrying an aura of extinction. Just by looking at it, Chi Anlin felt as if his soul could be severed at any moment.
"Do I need to comprehend the Sword Intent..." Chi Anlin pondered for a moment, then closed his eyes, his mind constantly replaying that sword strike.
At the same time, his consciousness entered the Blood Energy Space, directly summoning a Luo Yangyu of the same level, and then began the battle.
Luo Yangyu at this stage had not yet comprehended Sword Intent, but his sword-dancing style already had a basic form. Chi Anlin began to imitate him, following the pattern.
Afterward, he defeated Luo Yangyu and changed the search criteria again.
Luo Yangyu reappeared. This time, Luo Yangyu had reached the Third Realm and had just comprehended the Soul-Extinguishing Sword Intent.
Chi Anlin dodged his attacks while trying to comprehend this most basic Sword Intent. However, due to the vast disparity in strength, he was killed by the opponent after only a few rounds.
Just like that, he kept summoning Luo Yangyu, comprehending the Sword Intent while fighting.
He had always been fighting to improve his combat skills or receiving martial arts instruction from others, which caused him to lag behind in comprehending these 'Intents'.
Fist Intent and Sword Intent both required a certain level of self-understanding on a particular path, but he had always been influenced by others and had not comprehended an Intent of his own.
Chi Anlin also understood that his aptitude was not particularly strong; he relied on entering the Blood Energy Space time and time again, spending more time to learn.
Now that he had the opportunity, he was prepared to comprehend the Sword Intents of many people at once, and then create a Sword Intent that belonged to himself!

While Chi Anlin was comprehending the Sword Intent, Ji Hongfei also walked into a strange space.
"What is this! Stop playing tricks!" This area was full of lonely graves, each with a name written on it.
God Clan—Regretless God, Human Clan—Ji Xuanzhi, Demon Clan—Demonic Shade...
Ji Hongfei felt a chill run down his spine. The sky was gloomy, and these graves were arranged neatly, filled with an eerie feeling.
Ji Hongfei shivered, then took out a handful of beans and scattered them on the ground.
The Bean Soldiers appeared, chattering away, which gave Ji Hongfei a slight sense of vitality. He then grabbed a dozen Bean Soldiers and had them stand on his body.
He looked at one of the graves, his brow slightly furrowed: "Ancestor Xuanzhi? Didn't the ancestor die in the Land of Fallen Gods a thousand years ago?"
Ji Hongfei was a little puzzled, then looked carefully at the names on these graves, and his pupils could not help but shrink.
The ones buried here were all geniuses of various clans!
Regretless God was a member of the God King clan. According to the records of the Ji Family, Regretless God possessed the God King Dao Body, and his ranking reached 192nd.
As a genius of the God Clan, Regretless God had killed three Dragon Clan kings just after entering the King Rank!
Ji Hongfei looked again at the grave of Demonic Shade. Demonic Shade possessed the Primal Demon War Body, with a ranking reaching 99th. At his peak, his cultivation broke through to the Saint Rank!
Unfortunately, he was eventually besieged by multiple Saint Rank Experts in the Land of Fallen Gods, and finally detonated his world, causing multiple Saint Rank Experts to be seriously injured.
Looking at them one by one, these historically brilliant geniuses had actually all appeared in this graveyard.
However... Ji Hongfei lowered his eyelids. They had all eventually walked toward death, and the geniuses whose names appeared here were no longer in the current world.
Ji Hongfei sighed. Although that was the case... how was he supposed to get out!
Ji Hongfei looked at his own ancestor's grave. Could it be that he had to dig up the grave to find out the truth?
No, how could he dig up his own ancestor's grave! If he were to dig, he should dig up someone else's.
Ji Hongfei walked to a grave somewhat hesitantly, wanting to reach out and dig, but then thought about it again. What if these graves were real... wouldn't he be courting death?
These were all geniuses from history, powerhouses of their time. If they really left behind any countermeasures, even if he was a King Rank, he would not be spared.
"Forget it. In life, one should be a hero; in death, a hero among ghosts. A real man, how can he fear life and death!"
"Bean One, you go and dig up that grave!"
Ji Hongfei stood far away and said to one of the Bean Soldiers.
The little Bean Soldier did not have much intelligence. Hearing its master's command, it hopped and skipped toward the grave, then jumped up on it.
The next second, the Bean Soldier was stunned in place. Those two black sesame-like eyes lost focus instantly, and then it fell to the ground with a thud.
Ji Hongfei raised his eyebrows. There really was danger! Damn it, it actually killed this general's Bean Soldier!
Subsequently, everything went black before his eyes, and he also fell to the ground.

Outside the inheritance ground, Beacon Fire King was drinking wine with a melancholic expression. He had tried many times and found that with his strength, he could not shake this barrier no matter what.
"Beacon Fire? Where are Little Chi and the others?" At this moment, a familiar voice rang in Beacon Fire King's ear. Suddenly, Beacon Fire King shuddered and turned his head.
Phoenix Fire Emperor was looking at him with a smile, and beside Phoenix Fire Emperor, Ancient Emperor Tian Gu was holding a jug of wine, also looking at him with a smile.
"Beacon Fire, this kid has grown up so much..." Ancient Emperor Tian Gu looked like time was catching up with him, while Beacon Fire King clenched his fists and whispered angrily: "You old man, you're only two years older than me..."
Beacon Fire King's mouth was controlled by an unknown force, and then he said: "Hello, Grandpa Tian Gu..."
Tian Gu stroked his beard with satisfaction. Without looking at the ashamed and angry Beacon Fire King, he turned his head and said to the Phoenix Fire Emperor beside him: "Girl, your disciple is really lucky to have encountered the Heavenly Tomb."
"Heavenly Tomb?" Phoenix Fire Emperor was a bit puzzled, looking at the barrier on the side. This was just a King Rank inheritance ground.
"This place was originally supposed to be the inheritance ground of a Golden Horn Clan king, but now it has been swallowed by the Heavenly Tomb." Tian Gu stroked his beard. Thinking back to those years, he was also someone who had entered the Heavenly Tomb.
Heavenly Tomb, as the name implies, is a graveyard.
However, the people buried inside are all geniuses from history, overlords of their time. Only such people are qualified to be buried in the Heavenly Tomb.
And this tomb is not a land of extreme danger, but represents a kind of inheritance.
Those who enter here, unless they court death themselves, will not be injured. When they finally come out, it would not be surprising if their strength improves by leaps and bounds.
Phoenix Fire Emperor had never entered the Heavenly Tomb. The Heavenly Tomb does not have a fixed location; it may appear in any corner of the heavens, and each time it appears, it stays for a very short time. It's just that this time, for some reason, it actually stayed here.
