A mere broken sword could unleash such terrifying might, how could they dare to believe it?
"This sword..." Prince Qianye took a deep breath and murmured, "It truly is a peerless, malevolent weapon forged by the sages of my clan!"
"The sword's name is Zang Shen."
Boom!
Chu Chen and everyone else felt as if their heads had been struck by a heavy hammer, leaving them blank.
Zang Shen?!
The true name of this sword was actually the Zang Shen Sword!
It was said that this sword was a malevolent weapon used by ancient immortals, rumored to have existed in the distant past.
This sword swept through the eight directions, extinguished stars and moons, and devastated the heavens and earth.
Ultimately, this sword was lost here, known as the Sword of God Burial!
"Is this the ancient malevolent weapon, the true Sword of God Burial?"
"That's right! The power of this sword is even more terrifying than our clan's sacred artifact, 'Nine Nether Cold Iron'!"
"If only we could control this sword..."
"Hush, speak no more, this is our family's most treasured heirloom!"
Numerous martial artists whispered amongst themselves.
Prince Qianye's expression was grave. He had never imagined that the Zang Shen Sword would be brought to the Imperial City by him!
"Xiao Xue, you shall wield this Zang Shen Sword. Remember, do not unleash it unless absolutely necessary."
Prince Qianye earnestly instructed, "If you encounter an enemy's attack, evade it and overcome force with gentleness!"
With that, Prince Qianye flew out.
Simultaneously, a peculiar scene materialized behind him.
There were illusions of mountains and rivers, and the manifestations of sun, moon, and stars, as if a world had descended!
This spectacle was so grand and vast that it made many martial artists' hearts pound with fear.
Boom!
Chu Chen took a step forward and threw a punch, immediately overturning several tables and chairs around him, sending wood splinters flying!
This scene, witnessed by everyone, caused many martial artists' pupils to contract.
"My cultivation has been restored!"
"That's right, mine too!"
In an instant, everyone's strength surged.
They were overjoyed, although their realms remained stagnant.
However, they could continue to comprehend secret techniques and martial arts, and contend for opportunities and treasures!
Prince Qianye stood in mid-air, holding a long spear, and thrust it forward fiercely!
With a loud bang, the stone statue's body was pierced, revealing a bloody hole!
The stone statue was massive, with a majestic build and skin as hard as steel.
Yet, when the spear pierced its body, it easily broke through its defense.
"This... how is this possible?"
"Has the stone statue lost its ability to resist?"
Everyone was shocked and couldn't comprehend it!
Just then, some martial artists saw a radiant light flashing at the stone statue's heart!
"Is this... a divine pill?"
"What is a divine pill?"
"A divine pill is a spiritual medicine that can heal all kinds of injuries."
"I understand now. No wonder the stone statue possessed combat power not inferior to a peak Xiantian realm, it was using some external force."
"So that's how it is..."
Many martial artists suddenly realized that this stone statue had long been dead.
Chu Chen also noticed that Prince Qianye had not taken the divine pill.
Or rather, he was not qualified to take it!
Prince Qianye shared the information he knew with everyone.
The divine pill was a spiritual elixir that countless martial artists dreamed of. The materials for refining it were extremely scarce and precious.
"Then, we're going to fight for the divine pill!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect such a benefit!"
"Kill that brat, seize the divine pill, and we can all break through our bottlenecks!"
Many martial artists' eyes burned with desire, and they stirred restlessly, charging towards Chu Chen.
"Scram!"
Chu Chen let out a cold roar.
In an instant, a terrifying power erupted, sending more than a dozen martial artists flying and crashing to the ground. "Damn it!"
Prince Qianye gritted his teeth, "Brat, this is the Imperial City of the Empire, no matter how powerful you are, what good will it do?"
He crossed his arms, gripping the long spear, its aura spitting out, piercing the sky with a magnificent rainbow!
Boom!
The spear's shadow flickered, instantly piercing the void, heading straight for the stone statue's forehead!
This move, Prince Qianye had planned for a long time, preparing to strike a fatal blow and instantly eliminate that little girl!
"Prince Qianye, please show mercy, she is not yet an adult..."
Beside him, Princess Qianye anxiously tried to intervene.
However, Prince Qianye's decision remained unchanged!
Chu Chen's face darkened, "Are you seeking death?!"
Boom!
His figure was like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed hundreds of feet, blocking in front of Prince Qianye!
Puchi!
Gold and iron clashed, sparks flying.
A golden short blade slashed out from his side, grazing his neck and nearly severing his head.
"Who is it!"
Prince Qianye roared in anger. Turning his head, he found that the little girl had actually obtained the Zang Shen Sword?
"I advise you not to act rashly, otherwise... Hmph!"
Prince Qianye snorted coldly, then turned to look at the other martial artists.
"This is a treasure belonging to our Prince Qianye's mansion, no one is allowed to covet it!"
"Heh heh, Prince Qianye, don't forget, the owner of this tomb is me!"
A burly man strode forward, with a black dragon perched on his right shoulder, lifelike and ferocious.
"Someone from the Long family?" Prince Qianye frowned, "You want to interfere too?"
"I, Long Yan, not only want to interfere, but I also want to cooperate with Prince Qianye."
Long Yan smiled faintly and waved his hand, tossing out a storage ring.
"This is what you deserve. I hope Prince Qianye will not misunderstand."
Prince Qianye reached out and took the storage ring.
It contained two three-patterned Dragon Tiger Pills!
Chu Chen narrowed his eyes, looking at this group of people, and said indifferently.
"We are from Qingzhou in the Southern Ridge. We are passing through the Imperial City today. I believe Prince Qianye must have heard of us."
"Hmm?" Prince Qianye was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"You are indeed martial artists from Qingzhou. I have sent people to investigate your background."
Qingzhou?
The rest of the people were also surprised. Qingzhou was a remote and poor place.
There were hardly any powerful individuals, so how could a group of Xiantian experts emerge?
"Then, I would like to ask one thing."
"Your cultivation recovery should have nothing to do with the stone statue, right?"
Prince Qianye was taken aback, then shook his head and said, "That's not it. The core area of the stone statue...
hides a mysterious power that can provide an endless stream of spiritual energy, helping martial artists to quickly recover their strength."
"Oh?"
"Since that's the case, I can rest assured."
"Rest assured about what?" Prince Qianye asked, confused.
"Since it's a mysterious power, I can rest assured..."
"Boom!" As his words fell, Prince Qianye's pupils suddenly constricted!
Because, just now, he felt a surge of wild energy erupt within him.
As if guided by something, it began to burn his lifespan and madly stimulate his bloodline power!
"Not good!"
Prince Qianye's expression changed drastically!
Chu Chen's lips curled into a mocking smile, "Prince Qianye, I respect you as a prince.
That's why I didn't expose you, but you ended up ambushing me!"
"You, what did you do!?"
"Heh heh, Prince Qianye, you are a smart person. My plan is very simple: you tell me all the information you know.
When I break into the Imperial Palace, kill the many heavenly talents and prodigies, and seize the divine pill, I will give the divine pill to you!"
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Princess Qianye.
"This woman, if you want her, take her back and have fun. I will not stop you!"
