219: Amazing Discovery - The Laws of the Sword

The Sun Emperor's proposal was naturally what the Ice Emperor was thinking as well.

"Mm, I must get my hands on it!" The Ice Emperor's face was filled with desire, unable to control himself.

"Since we cannot fight anyway, those of us at the Saint Realm have a chance to obtain the Godhead. Let's risk it."

"That's right. Although our Realm is low, this is our Opportunity for a Heaven-Defying change of fate."

Clearly, most people had their eyes fixed on the Godhead.

"Alright, everyone, good luck. Go and claim your treasures!"

Having received the instruction, the crowd charged out in a swarm, like mad dogs seeing scraps of meat.

Ji Mo and Elder Mu charged straight toward the center of the tomb, while the Emperors and their group went to the side halls to search for treasures first.

"Hehehe~"

Watching everyone enter the palace complex, the few old fellows in black robes let out terrifying laughter.

"Great Master, you are about to descend upon this Plane, rule over the world, and achieve a Breakthrough to become a god!"

"Become a god, become a god, become a god!"

Ji Mo and Elder Mu traveled all the way to the core area and suddenly saw a stone tablet standing in front of them, inscribed with three characters — An Lan Tomb!

Behind the stone tablet was a bottomless jade staircase. The two stepped onto the jade staircase, and after ten thousand steps, the view suddenly opened up.

It was yet another palace complex. Every palace radiated various treasures' light; it was not blinding, but it illuminated the place as if it were broad daylight.

Ji Mo saw many people entering these palaces, plundering treasures.

Upon entering this place, the little sword within Ji Mo's Sea of Consciousness trembled continuously, guiding Ji Mo's direction.

Following the guidance, Ji Mo walked with Elder Mu toward a small pavilion structured like a study.

There was no one here because this small pavilion was too inconspicuous; from the outside, it did not emit any aura of treasure.

Ji Mo walked inside. The four walls were hung with many scholarly paintings and calligraphy. On the left was an ancient wooden table, and an aura of books and scholarly atmosphere drifted toward the two.

"I didn't expect An Lan to be a scholar," Elder Mu chuckled.

Ji Mo did not answer Elder Mu at this moment; his attention had already been captured by a grinding stone on the desk.

On that desk, a scroll was laid flat, inscribed with only one large character — God!

From this character, one could see An Lan's entire ambition.

On the top right of the scroll was an inkstone, and upon it was a small grinding stone the size of a thumb.

Ji Mo stared blankly at this grinding stone. Elder Mu, seeing Ji Mo in a daze, walked over and said:

"Lad Ji Mo, do you also like calligraphy and paintings? There are so many treasures outside you aren't grabbing, yet you come here to look at words!"

Elder Mu couldn't quite understand his train of thought.

Ji Mo picked up the grinding stone, staring at it intently, unable to snap out of it even now. He murmured, "Elder Mu, do you know what this is!"

Hearing Ji Mo say this, Elder Mu also fixed his gaze on it and looked carefully, "Isn't this just a special stone! At most, it was influenced by An Lan and contains a faint Sword Intent."

"Hehehe, Elder Mu, let's put it this way: the entire An Lan Treasure Trove, with all its items added together, is not as precious as this little thing."

"It's just that the treasure is covered in dust, and An Lan couldn't open this Treasure Trove. Otherwise, this little thing alone would have allowed him to become a god, or even become countless times stronger."

Hearing Ji Mo say this, Elder Mu looked shocked, his eyes wide. However, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't tell what kind of thing it was.

"Lad Ji Mo, what on earth is this!" This made Elder Mu so anxious he was scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Law of the Sword!" Ji Mo slowly spat out these four words.

"Law of the Sword?" Elder Mu was stunned stupid by these four words and exclaimed in shock.

Fortunately, Ji Mo was prepared and waved his hand to cast a Restriction, otherwise, this would have been heard by everyone.

"Yes, this contains the Law of the Sword." Ji Mo saw Elder Mu's disbelief and confusion. "I am very sure that this contains the Law of the Sword. It's just that outsiders do not have the ability to open this Treasure Trove; I only could because of my big brother."

As he spoke, Ji Mo pointed to his own brain.

The little sword within the Sea of Consciousness could no longer hold back. A beam of sword light shot out from between Ji Mo's brows, striking the grinding stone.

The stone shell shattered. Before the two could see what was inside, it flew directly into Ji Mo's brow and was absorbed by the little sword. Even now, Ji Mo hadn't seen what it looked like.

Elder Mu now looked numb, staring blankly at Ji Mo. With his experience, he had never even come into contact with this level of power.

He didn't expect that the lad before him would have such a profound Opportunity; this background was somewhat heaven-reaching!

Inside the Sea of Consciousness, after the little sword absorbed this 'grinding stone', its blade grew by an inch and was clearly more powerful. An insight into the Dao of the sword was transmitted by the little sword to Ji Mo's Soul.

This insight was profound and vast. Ji Mo could not fully comprehend it, but he could sense his own Dao of the sword strengthening.

Many insights were inexplicable, like looking at flowers through the mist. Even so, Ji Mo's path of the Dao of the sword became clearer and clearer, and his understanding of sword techniques became more thorough.

Previously, those Secret Manuals of sword techniques he had harvested flashed continuously at this moment, like flowers passing by on horseback. Whether it was Earth Rank sword techniques or Heavenly Tribulation sword techniques, he had a preliminary understanding of them.

This was what was meant by a clear Sword Heart.

The Sword Soul, influenced by this, was also slowly strengthening. The blade was constantly being affected, but unfortunately, it was still some distance away from three inches.

This was not the end. The little sword once again transmitted a sword technique to Ji Mo.

"Elder Mu, please act as my Protector. I have comprehended a sword technique and need to stabilize it now."

Without waiting for Elder Mu's reply, he sat cross-legged directly.

"Wrath of the Sword God!" This sword technique was the third move in the Sword God series.

When his consciousness sank into deep comprehension, the little sword once again pulled his consciousness into the Sword God Space.

That figure was continuously practicing various newly acquired sword techniques, like floating clouds and flowing water, containing all kinds of Dao rhymes of the sword. He was like a sponge, continuously absorbing.

...

While Ji Mo was still comprehending the sword technique,

After looting all the side halls, everyone finally gathered in front of a huge coffin.

The coffin was engraved with mountains, rivers, sun, and moon. Inside the coffin lay a handsome middle-aged man. Even though his eyes were closed, that boundless aura of majesty was radiating at all times, making people's hearts tremble.

On the man's right side was a precious sword, inscribed with "God-Slaying". Even while the sword was still in its scabbard, one could feel its bone-chilling sharpness, making one feel as if their body was about to split apart.

Below the sword, there was also an exquisite pagoda and a large banner, which were equally extraordinary treasures.

On the man's left side were several Cultivation Technique Secret Manuals; one would assume they were at least Heaven Rank Secret Manuals.

However, what made everyone's eyes burn with heat were the two items above the man's head.

The first was an amber-colored fragment the size of a thumb.

The second was a scroll made of a special material.
