Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1365: The Source of the Strange Creatures

Buzz!

As if a raging gale poured in, the black mist suddenly went chaotic.

The Super Divine Dragon Breath emitted by the dark red coffin abruptly surged at this moment.

As though the Sword Tomb could not withstand this prowess, the entire tomb began to shiver and tremble.

Such an astonishing change even startled the Seven Divine Swords.

What on earth has happened?

What scheme has this so‑called Luo Mo been secretly setting in motion?

Just as the Seven Divine Swords were puzzled, they suddenly saw a black vine sprout on the dark red coffin.

That black vine shot from one zhang to seven or eight zhang in an instant, like a coiled Black Dragon, its whole body radiating a terrifying black glow. It spread branches and leaves, blossomed and bore fruit at a speed visible to the naked eye, unbelievably fast.

In total, seven fruits formed.

Each fruit looked like a spindle, pointed at both ends, bulging in the middle, its surface covered with protruding black bumps.

Crack...

A chill, eerie sound suddenly echoed throughout the Sword Tomb.

At the top of the vine, a spindle‑shaped black fruit split open from the middle with a fissure.

From that fissure drifted out clusters of black umbrella‑shaped seeds, densely packed, countless, impossible to tally.

The seeds were tiny, only the size of rice grains, but the black umbrella‑shaped fluff around them was as large as a washbasin.

These strange black seeds floated and drifted along the passage of the Sword Tomb, all the way out through the tomb’s exit, falling onto this gigantic planet.

The other six fruits also split open one after another.

In no time, black umbrella‑shaped seeds carpeted the entire planet, as well as the whole Sword Tomb.

The umbrella‑like fluff kept flexing, as if breathing, frenziedly absorbing the power of starlight; the seed wrapped inside also began to radiate layer upon layer of mysterious black light.

The seeds kept morphing and growing bigger.

Within just a few breaths, some had already grown to dozens of zhang in size.

Crack!

One seed split open, and a gigantic strange entity crawled out.

Crack crack...

Sounds rang out nonstop as one after another strange entity emerged from within the seeds, spreading across the entire planet and Sword Tomb.

Some were of the Divine King Realm, others of the God Emperor Realm.

After appearing, the strange entities lay silently prone on the ground, eyes closed, nurturing their strength, as if waiting for something.

"So, you really are the source of the strange entities in the Open Sun Galaxy..."

Witnessing this shocking transformation, Thunderbolt Sword was shaken to the core. Bearing the crushing pressure on its body, it spoke with extreme difficulty.

"Geh‑geh..."

A string of laughter came from the black vine.

"Thunderbolt Sword, in your opinion, between me and your old master, the Undefeatable Sword Emperor, who will be the final victor in this ultimate great war?"

Luo Mo chuckled.

Thunderbolt Sword fell silent, then asked, "And what meaning would victory even have? What are you two sides actually fighting over?"

"Nothing much. By sheer chance I entered the flesh of the Undefeatable Sword Emperor. I only intended to seize his energy, but unexpectedly there was hidden mystery in his body. I was viciously trapped by him. The me now is no longer the me of the past..."

Luo Mo sighed, his tone laced with intense hatred.

The Seven Divine Swords listened, utterly at a loss.

"Our old master merely lacks the Seven Divine Swords. If everything were complete, you likely wouldn’t be his match!"

Space Sword snorted.

"Utter nonsense. You broken Sword really deserve to die..."

Luo Mo flew into a rage.

Whoosh! The black vine on Space Sword suddenly intensified its strength, waves of terrifying black energy surging in.

Space Sword’s grade was plummeting sharply.

"Th‑this... this is the power of the Slaughter Blood Evil Sword!"

In the midst of horror, a sudden flash of insight lit up its mind; Space Sword abruptly recognized the origin of this energy.

This was the strange energy of the Slaughter Blood Evil Sword, yet somehow different, as if it had undergone a second evolution.

"Heh, so you actually remembered a few things..."

Luo Mo sneered.

At that moment, the black vine actually ceased infusing strange power.

The grade of this Space Sword wasn’t bad; best to keep it for now—who knows, it might be of great use in the future.

All around, deathly silence.

"Let’s hope the Sword Pavilion arrives soon. In this ultimate great war, that person must not be allowed to suffer any harm..."

Luo Mo spoke faintly, his voice melodious, sounding more and more like a woman.

The Seven Divine Swords looked at each other.

They had no idea who the ’that person’ in Luo Mo’s mouth referred to.

...

Within the Open Sun Galaxy.

Ten Celestial Boats radiated immortal light, howling through the boundless starlight at a terrifying speed.

One mighty Sword Cultivator after another stood upon the Celestial Boats.

"Strange. On some planets all the strange entities are withering, actually turning into wisps of blue smoke and vanishing..."

Staring at the abnormalities on several planets, Deputy Pavilion Master Xu exclaimed in surprise.

"Isn’t that a good thing? Maybe the strange entities have reached the end of their lifespan! Hahaha!"

Another Vice Pavilion Master laughed loudly.

"This matter is rather unusual. We’ve never figured out the origins of the strange entities despite all these years, and now they are vanishing in such a bizarre way..."

The Guardian of Divine Sword spoke, face grave.

Lu Buqun frowned. "Guardian Master, could it be that as the Sword Tomb surfaced, those strange entities caught wind of it and rushed to that planet, wanting to get ahead of us and steal the opportunity of the Sword Pavilion?"

"What you say does have some merit..."

The Guardian of Divine Sword nodded. As a certain possibility came to mind, his expression suddenly grew stern.

"Once we reach the Sword Tomb’s planet, everything will be laid bare!"

Lu Buqun gave a tight smile.

Strange entities are always elusive and unpredictable; if they appear on the Sword Tomb’s planet, that would not be impossible.

It seems a great battle awaits ahead.

After Lu Buqun laid bare this hidden thread,

the faces of all high‑level figures of the Sword Pavilion grew extremely serious, and the atmosphere on the ten Celestial Boats became somewhat oppressive.

"Interesting..."

Ye Yun withdrew his gaze, his eyes thoughtful.

The abnormal behavior of these strange entities had surprised him.

In Ye Yun’s view,

all the strange entities first withered, then turned into blue smoke and vanished. This should be some kind of Divine Skills of the strange source.

...

Two and a half days later.

The ten Celestial Boats raced on without rest and finally arrived at the planet where the Sword Tomb lay.

"It’s exactly as we guessed. Strange entities cover the entire planet; I fear the interior of the Sword Tomb is the same!"

Seeing the densely packed strange entities across the planet, Deputy Pavilion Master Xu’s face changed drastically, unable to hide his inner dread.

The others were likewise too shocked to speak.

The strange entities are elusive; yet now they are waiting here, like lying in ambush beneath a tree, just waiting for them to come crashing in.

"Despicable. These beasts really have set an ambush here..."

The Guardian of Divine Sword’s face stiffened, his body slightly trembling.

So many strange entities—even if their attack power is weak, slaughtering them will still take an enormous amount of time.

Worst of all, their Parasitic Supernatural Power is practically impossible to guard against.

"We’ve traversed the Galaxy from afar, taking three whole days to reach this place. We absolutely cannot allow the Sword Tomb’s inheritance, nor the Seven Divine Swords, to fall into the hands of strange entities!"

Lu Buqun’s face was solemn, his eyes like Swords, his voice deep.

"Agreed!"

The Guardian of Divine Sword nodded, raising his voice. "The Seven Divine Swords must not be lost!"

"All disciples of the Sword Pavilion heed my order: swallow the Purple Mixed Divine Pill at once and clear out the strange entities near the Sword Tomb entrance!"

Lu Buqun issued his command.

"Kill!"

A mountain‑toppling roar erupted from the ten Celestial Boats.

The Celestial Boats suddenly plunged downward.

Like ten meteors, they streaked toward the Sword Tomb’s Sword hilt.

This was the entrance.

According to Lu Buqun’s plan, the vast majority would hold the entrance, while the remaining portion would storm the Sword Tomb.

The forces would split in two.
