The several-thousand-zhang tall Heaven Sword Mountain was like a giant sword piercing straight into the azure sky, with its mirror-like smooth mountain surface reflecting countless golden rays.
And the celestial swords scattered on the mountain, visible to the naked eye, were dazzling and brilliant, attracting many immortals at the foot of the mountain to fly up one after another, vying to seize them.
However, near Heaven Sword Mountain, the immortal might was overwhelming. Ordinary Earth Immortal Realm experts could only ascend to about a hundred zhang, and then had to rely on their limbs to climb further.
Heavenly Immortal Realm experts could only fly a thousand zhang before needing to rely on the strength of their physical bodies to continue ascending.
The higher the celestial swords on Heaven Sword Mountain, the higher their grade.
Therefore, to obtain a higher-grade, more powerful celestial sword, one must put in imnse effort and hardship to reach greater heights.
At this mont, the mountain body of Heaven Sword Mountain was densely populated, with many immortals flying down onto the mountain surface, and climbing upwards with all their might, aiming to reach higher ground and acquire better-grade celestial swords.
At the mountain’s base, many immortals also looked upward, watching those climbing immortals, eager to try their luck.
As soon as an immortal couldn’t withstand the immortal might on Heaven Sword Mountain and was forced to fly down, they would imdiately fly up.
All immortals ascended Heaven Sword Mountain with hope, yearning to seize their ideal celestial sword.
However, the vast majority of immortals couldn’t fulfill their wishes, with only a few able to return satisfied, laughing out loud with pride amidst the envious gazes of the surrounding immortals.
While the eyes of all immortals were focused on Heaven Sword Mountain, a figure concealed its aura and rged with the surrounding scenery, slipping into a dense forest at the mountain’s base.
In the next mont, that figure’s body slowly sank into the mountain body, continuously moving towards the mountain’s depths.
That figure was Fang Bai.
Fang Bai possessed the Chaos True Body, with Chaos Immortal Qi in his Qi Sea, including Earth Immortal Qi, allowing his body to easily rge with the mountains and earth and travel freely within.
In the eyes of immortals, Fang Bai’s ability was akin to the Earth Escape Technique.
Heaven Sword Mountain’s body was massive, and Fang Bai’s burrowing speed was not fast. Only after a hundred breaths did he feel the space ahead open up, reaching a space over ten zhang in diater.
This space was the Immortal Tomb that Fang Bai’s divine sense had detected in his previous life.
That Immortal Venerable Realm expert had ingeniously used the entire Heaven Sword Mountain as his tomb.
"I beg your pardon for disturbing!"
Fang Bai’s gaze fell upon the Immortal Venerable Realm expert sitting cross-legged in the center of the Immortal Tomb, clasping his fists before speaking, then slowly walked to stand before him.
Though the Immortal Venerable Realm expert had long lost his vitality, his facial features were still vivid and lifelike, almost as if still alive.
Even his clothing remained uncorrupted.
In his hands, he was holding a celestial sword that appeared ordinary and without luster, yet Fang Bai knew that its grade was high, suited for an Immortal Venerable Realm expert.
However, with several divine artifacts in his possession, Fang Bai had no interest in the celestial sword, instead fixating on the Space Immortal Ring on his finger.
After all, as an Immortal Venerable Realm expert, the cultivation resources within his Space Immortal Ring were of undeniable importance to Fang Bai.
But Fang Bai was sure that the Immortal Venerable Realm expert had a defensive immortal artifact, so he dared not approach the Space Immortal Ring lightly and could only probe first to dismantle his defensive immortal artifact.
However, the space here was too small, and Fang Bai worried that his probing might provoke a fierce backlash, creating a big commotion and alerting the immortals outside the mountain.
"No matter, I’ll give it a try..."
A flash of light appeared between Fang Bai’s brows, and the enlarged Blood-Drinking Mad Blade rested in front of him, completely shielding his body.
Though this immortal had fallen, as an Immortal Venerable Realm expert, Fang Bai had to be extrely cautious, reinforcing his self-protection.
With the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade protecting him, Fang Bai felt a lot more at ease. After all, no matter how powerful the Immortal Venerable Realm expert was, he couldn’t destroy a divine artifact like the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.
"Swoosh!"
A piece of Immortal Stone shot out from Fang Bai’s hand, fully striking towards the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s remains.
"Buzz!"
Just as Fang Bai had anticipated, when the Immortal Stone was three chi from the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s remains, a sword light killing intent burst from his chest, pulverizing the Immortal Stone to dust, then continued slashing towards Fang Bai.
The enveloped range of that sword light killing intent wasn’t large, yet when its power concentrated to a smaller area, its might grew stronger.
Fang Bai could plainly see that the space ahead appeared as though it was sliced by the killing intent, revealing a long, void-like black line.
"Clang!"
A loud, clear sound echoed as the killing intent slashed against the blade of the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.
The blade was unhard, but Fang Bai, along with the blade, was sent flying backward, crashing into the mountain body behind.
A few breaths later, Fang Bai, covered in dust, bounced back from within the mountain body, reappearing in his original spot.
"Truly worthy of an Immortal Venerable Realm expert..."
Fang Bai patted the dust off his body, grinning slightly.
This probing reassured Fang Bai, making him think that the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s retaliatory power was sowhat less than he imagined, suggesting that acquiring his Space Immortal Ring might not be overly difficult.
"Again!"
With a flick of his hand, Fang Bai once again launched an Immortal Stone with full force, thereby triggering another retaliation from the Immortal Venerable Realm expert...
Dozens of breaths later, after the Immortal Venerable Realm expert had triggered yet another retaliation, Fang Bai heard a soft cracking sound.
Then, a fragnted Jade Pendant fell from the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s chest to the ground.
Fang Bai was overjoyed, trying to soften his force, and struck once more.
This ti, as he expected, no more killing intent erupted from the Immortal Venerable Realm expert.
Evidently, all of the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s killing intent was contained within the Jade Pendant. With it shattered, approaching his remains posed no further danger.
"The grade of this celestial sword may not compare to the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, but it would make a good gift for a friend..."
Fang Bai took slow steps to stand before the Immortal Venerable Realm expert, took a glance at the celestial sword in his hands, and casually stored it in the Five Elents Space Ring.
"This Space Immortal Ring is mine..."
Fang Bai removed the Space Immortal Ring from the Immortal Venerable Realm expert’s hand, and as his divine sense scanned it, a smile of joy quickly spread across his face.
In the vast Space Immortal Ring, it was piled with various cultivation resources. Both the grade and quantity exceeded his imagination, giving him quite a pleasant surprise.
After tossing the Space Immortal Ring into his Five Elents Space Ring, Fang Bai road within the mountain body for a while longer. Finding no additional treasures, he then left the way he ca.
After over half a month in the Five Elents Tower, Fang Bai moved from the first floor to the second floor’s Wood Immortal Qi space world to continue training.
Another half month later, Fang Bai bypassed the third floor’s Water Immortal Qi space in the Five Elents Tower and reached the fourth floor’s Fire Immortal Qi space.
In the final month, Fang Bai stayed on the fifth floor’s Earth Immortal Qi space to train.
During these tis, Fang Bai didn’t encounter Xuan Ze, Peng Wu, Ying Luo, or Yu Feng, but he could sense their presence, confirming that they were all well.
