Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1239: The Hidden Treasure
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
Rumble...
Amidst a wave of dazzling, fierce lights, they crashed down like a tide onto the protective barrier of the Mountain Protection Array, causing intense tremors.
Though the barrier shuddered, it managed to nullify all of the attacks.
Seeing that the Sword Demon Palace’s assault did not immediately breach the Mountain Protection Array, everyone in the Daluo Sword Palace let out a sigh of relief, their hearts finally settling.
"Ye Chen, your Mountain Protection Array is indeed formidable..."
The Supreme Ancestor gave a thumbs up and smiled warmly.
"It’s not too bad; I happened upon an Array Master by chance, and we hit it off, so he gifted me this Formation. Now, as the senior brother of the Ninth Spiritual Vein, I should contribute to the Daluo Sword Palace..."
Ye Yun said with a smile.
His words were quite grandiose.
The Supreme Ancestor was deeply moved upon hearing this.
His selfless defense of Ye Chen was now rewarded beyond imagination.
With this Formation in place, no matter how powerful the Sword Demon Palace might be, they couldn’t do anything to the Daluo Sword Palace.
"Ye Chen has saved our Daluo Sword Palace this time..."
A Disciple of Heaven’s Pride on the square sighed with a silent expression.
"Who would say otherwise? Although Ye Chen killed people from the Sword Demon Palace, this might not be a bad thing; it could perhaps be an opportunity for our Daluo Sword Palace to rise..."
Another Disciple of Heaven’s Pride laughed.
"Indeed..."
Others nodded in agreement.
As the new generation of Disciples of Heaven’s Pride from the Daluo Sky Sect, although each held their heads high and looked down on others, in reality, they were easily impressed by the strong.
Ye Chen’s powerful display had completely won them over.
The Eight Great Ministers’ faces turned ashen with anger upon hearing their disciples’ words, wishing badly to punish these rebellious disciples.
In front of the Supreme Ancestor, however, they couldn’t act out and their complexions turned a patchwork of colors.
"Can this Formation really protect the Daluo Sword Palace?"
Li Chengtong’s expression was dark and displeased.
As the Palace Master of the Daluo Sword Palace, of course he hoped that the palace would remain safe, but seeing Ye Chen in such high spirits, he felt deeply discomforted.
If not for the presence of the Supreme Ancestor, he would have acted against Ye Chen already.
Such a Disciple of Heaven’s Pride, if not used for him, was pointless to keep around.
Rumble! Rumble...
The disciples of Sword Demon Palace attacked one after another, bombing away relentlessly.
The Sword Demon watched the Formation changes from above, his face as dark as water.
"Husband, this Formation is indeed strong and difficult to breach! We might need more time to break it..."
The seductive Flower Devil observed the Formation below and said softly.
"No rush, continue rallying the Sword Demon Palace people!"
The Sword Demon waved his hand, a Message Flying Sword shot out, disappearing into the void.
Not long after.
Rumble, rumble...
Out of the depths of the void emerged vortexes and beams of light, as tens of thousands more disciples from the Sword Demon Palace arrived.
To break through the Mountain Protection Array of the Daluo Sword Palace, the Sword Demon Palace had all but emptied its nest.
The commotion at the Daluo Sword Palace, being so massive, naturally drew the attention of countless forces around.
Many powerful individuals, seeing the grand offensive of the Sword Demon Palace against the Daluo Sword Palace, felt very conflicted.
Truth be told.
They all lived within the Tianluo Domain, and if the Daluo Sword Palace were to fall, they would face even greater pressure from the Sword Demon Palace.
So most did not wish for the brutal Sword Demon Palace to break through the Daluo Sword Palace’s Mountain Protection Array.
Yet they dared not act rashly.
After all, no one would want to provoke such a powerful Sword Demon Palace.
"Supreme Ancestor, let everyone disperse, let the Sword Demon Palace tire themselves out..."
Ye Yun said with a smile.
"Alright!"
The Supreme Ancestor nodded with a smile, waving his hand to scatter the Disciples of Heaven’s Pride in the square.
While the Nine Great Sect Leaders and Palace Master Li Chengtong remained on the square.
At this moment, Liu Yiyi had already put away the nine Daluo Sword Fruits.
"It seems Brother Yun also does not wish to reveal his strength this time, hence he set up a Formation for the Daluo Sword Palace..."
Liu Yiyi stared at Ye Yun’s back, secretly guessing.
A few Time Units passed.
The disciples of the Sword Demon Palace showed signs of fatigue, yet the protective barrier of the Mountain Protection Array remained unchanged.
"Husband, there are quite a few people watching around us..."
The Flower Devil glanced around, speaking with a meaningful tone.
"They want to watch a good show? Once I take down the Daluo Sword Palace, I’ll deal with those spectators one by one!"
The Sword Demon grinned ferociously, eyes glinting with malice.
After some thought, he suddenly gritted his teeth and took out a Bronze Box from his bosom.
Though not stored in a Storage Ring, it was worn close to his body, indicating its importance.
The Bronze Box was carved with a Little Sword, exceptionally ancient and quaint, yet evoking a sense of transcendence.
"Husband, you’re actually going to use that?"
Flower Devil’s gaze fell on the Bronze Box, her expression changed dramatically in a sudden exclamation.
"Indeed, it’s time to use this treasure!"
The Sword Demon chuckled coldly.
"Destroying the Daluo Sword Palace can exchange for countless resources, enough to compensate for the loss of this treasure!"
The Sword Demon sneered.
"Very well!"
The Flower Devil nodded, reluctantly agreeing.
"What is that?"
Below the Formation, the Supreme Ancestor glanced at the Bronze Box in the Sword Demon’s hand, his eye twitching involuntarily.
Instinctively.
He deduced that this mysterious Bronze Box was extraordinarily unusual.
It seemed to pose an unimaginable threat to the Mountain Protection Array of the Daluo Sword Palace.
"Is this the Sword Demon’s secret treasure?
Supreme Ancestor, no worries, our Formation won’t be easily breached..."
Ye Yun shook his head, smiling nonchalantly.
The Supreme Ancestor nodded.
"Alright!"
Seeing the Sword Demon bring out his prized treasure, Li Chengtong’s face hinted at excitement, internally cheering.
He had been waiting for the Sword Demon to unleash his trump card.
As soon as the Sword Demon broke the Formation, he would decisively capture Ye Chen and present him to the Sword Demon.
Simultaneously, he would seize the Daluo Sword Fruits from Liu Yiyi, offering some to the Sword Demon.
This way, the crisis of the Daluo Sword Palace’s destruction would be averted.
And the thorn in the Daluo Sword Palace’s side would be removed, achieving two goals in one move.
One must say.
Li Chengtong’s plan was flawless, calculating everything meticulously.
"Good treasure, time for you to take stage..." In the void, the Sword Demon took a deep breath, bit his finger, and quickly inscribed a symbol onto the Bronze Box with his blood.
With a click.
The Bronze Box opened, releasing a surge of overwhelming Sword Intent.
"What powerful Sword Intent!"
The watching experts from various factions in the distance couldn’t help but gasp.
Even tens of thousands of miles away, they felt as though that Sword Qi cleaved their hearts.
A sense of imminent death arose.
"I never imagined... that the Sword Demon possessed such a powerful artifact!"
The experts discussed heatedly, once again growing concerned for the Daluo Sword Palace.
"Go."
The Sword Demon sneered, suddenly slapping the Bronze Box, a beam of light shot down.
This was a sword light.
The sword light was overwhelmingly powerful, carrying an aura of creation itself, and as it flew out dozens of feet, it expanded massively in mid-air, reaching tens of thousands of feet in size.
The colossal sword, overwhelmingly imposing.
Rumble!
The terrifying colossal sword crashed onto the barrier at great speed, producing a thunderous roar.
Buzzing...
The barrier trembled violently, flickering as if about to extinguish.
