Chapter 3520: Stone Golem
Elder Nong opened the stone door leading to the sixth floor. They reached the sixth floor very soon.
The entire sixth floor was covered with tendrils from an Immortal Devouring Orchid. The tendrils were extremely large, such that each one was several metres thick. They crisscrossed the entire stone hall, reaching the very depths.
These tendrils were the same as the tiny segment that they had seen earlier. They all came from the same Immortal Devouring Orchid that perished many years ago. Due to the ruin brought on by great power, all of the structure was broken. Coupled with the passage of time, the entire Immortal Devouring Orchid had eroded away.
As a result, as soon as the three of them entered the sixth floor, they seemed to break the stability. All the tendrils criss-crossing the area immediately turned into a great blanket of dust, dispersing into the air.
The three of them began searching through the sixth floor. In the end, they found a total of fifty God Tier swords.
These God Tier swords were all low quality god artifacts. They were preserved extremely well and almost brand-new. Each sword shone with dazzling and gorgeous light, forming quite an enchanting scene.
This is the Great Expansion Sword Formation. Its said that this formation was created according to the principles of the Great Expanding Fifty, using forty-nine God Tier swords to emulate the cycle of the world. The final God Tier sword represents the One That Escaped. It can gather all the power of the entire formation to unleash terrifying might that can make the world pale. Elder Nong was very excited as he looked at the sword formation.
Ive heard many seniors talking about the Great Expansion Sword Formation in the past. Its said that once this formation is unleashed, it possesses the terrifying might to easily slay Immortal Emperors, elder Nong murmured excitedly.
It can easily slay Immortal Emperors? In other words, this Great Expansion Sword Formation is even more precious than the Immortal-destroying Thunder? After all, the Immortal-destroying Thunder is a consumable. Once you use it, its gone. However, the Great Expansion Sword Formation can be used time and time again. Chen Shuzhis eyes immediately lit up. He immediately said greedily, As the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, its best if I personally wield this formation that can protect the entire sect.
As he said that, Chen Shuzhi directly stowed away the fifty God Tier swords.
When he saw that, elder Nong opened his mouth as if he had something he wanted to say, but it choked up in his mouth. However, he did not stop Chen Shuzhi.
Meanwhile, Jian Chen smiled mysteriously. With his insight and cultivation, he could tell with a single glance that it definitely was not as easy as Chen Shuzhi had imagined to kill Immortal Emperors with the the Great Expansion Sword Formation. At the very least, it was completely impossible with the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens current strength.
Unleashing the might of the Great Expansion Sword Formation did not just require the swords but people as well.
The Great Expansion Sword Formations might could only be completely unleashed with fifty Immortal Monarchs each wielding a God Tier sword.
By then, with the full might of the sword formation, it could indeed kill early Immortal Emperors with ease. It could even threaten mid Immortal Emperors.
However, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens definitely could not assemble fifty Immortal Monarchs given its current situation.
Apart from the Great Expansion Sword Formation on the sixth floor, they also found some scattered god artifacts. Not only were there swords, but there were defensive god artifacts as well.
Afterwards, they continued to the seventh and eighth floors.
They also found tendrils of the Immortal Devouring Orchid on these two floors. The colossal tendrils almost filled half of the stone hall. There were traces of it on every floor.
They found many precious God Tier resources and countless materials for forging artifacts on the two floors, as well as many mid and low grade God Tier heavenly resources. On top of that, they found several thousand low grade God Tier pills of various functions and almost a hundred mid grade God Tier pills.
In short, the resources they obtained from this trip into the stone hall was so bountiful that Nong Fugui and Chen Shuzhi ravished with joy.
These resources had been absolutely nothing to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens during its peak. It was even less than a drop in the sea.
But to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens right now, it was definitely timely assistance during their distress.
In the end, the three of them directly made their way onto the ninth floor.
However, as soon as they entered the ninth floor, a huge, stone statue blocked their paths. The stone statue radiated with a terrifying presence enough to make the expressions of Chen Shuzhi and Nong Fugui change.
Meanwhile, Jian Chen squinted his eyes slightly with a smear of surprise.
He could tell with a single glance that the statue possessed the battle prowess of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch.
A Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch golem? Jian Chen studied the statue and carefully sent out the powerful senses of his soul, closely examining the stone golem.
A while later, Jian Chen shivered inside while his emotions fluctuated. The stone golem definitely was not just a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch but an Immortal Emperor.
However, because there was no longer much energy left in the stone golems five-coloured immortal crystals, its strength had declined, falling to the level of Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarchs.
If it had sufficient five-coloured immortal crystals, then the stone golems strength would return to the level of Immortal Emperors.
At the same time, Jian Chen detected the senses of another Immortal Emperors soul that crept carefully and cautiously towards the stone golem.
It was the senses of the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperors soul. He tailed them secretly the entire time through the Laws of Space. He witnessed everything they had found along the way.
Jian Chen silently withdrew the senses of his soul. He did not alarm the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor.
At this moment, Chen Shuzhi also realised that the stone statue was a golem. His eyes lit up greedily. He could not help but approach it.
But at this moment, the stone golem suddenly erupted with a tremendous presence. Great killing intent surged out. A pair of cold, merciless eyes swept past Chen Shuzhi. Afterwards, with a swing of its legs, it appeared before Chen Shuzhi instantly, directly throwing a fist at his head.
This punch bore the might of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch. The fist pierced through the air and even created ripples in space.
The aura of death immediately enveloped Chen Shuzhi.
Chen Shuzhis expression changed drastically. Right when he wanted to retreat, he discovered that he had been immobilised. The stone golem seemed to possess a domain of its own, dragging Chen Shuzhi into the domain and immediately freezing him.
Chen Shuzhi was unable to dodge or run. It was guaranteed death for him if he tried to endure the attack of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch with his cultivation at the First Heavenly Layer.
At the moment of life or death, elder Nong formed a seal with both hands and sent a beam of light into the stone golems forehead.
Immediately, as if the stone golem had been hit with a freezing curse, it stiffened and stopped moving. The colossal fist paused less than three inches away from Chen Shuzhis forehead with enough might to strike fear into him.
The terrifying force was already enough to make Chen Shuzhis forehead ache.
Nong Fugui did not stop with the seals. After producing several more, the stone golem shrank, falling into elder Nongs hand as the size of a palm.
Meanwhile, after surviving a scrape with death, Chen Shuzhi was pale-white. Chills ran down his spine.
