Chapter 5285
Kai turned to Zhang, the person in charge, and said, “Senior, I won’t be entering the Ten Thousand Swords Cave. I’ll take the reward and leave now.”
“Would you like to reconsider?” Zhang, the person in charge, said with some regret, “The Ten Thousand Swords Cave is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for sword cultivators.”
“Although the opportunity is great, you must be alive to enjoy it.” Kai said with a smile, “After I solve the trouble at the Divine Sword Villa, I will come back to ask for your advice.”
Zhang nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll have someone escort you out through the secret passage, away from eyes and ears.”
“Outside Sword Saint City, there’s a sword tomb. You can go there to practice. Since you can’t enter the Ten Thousand Swords Cave, practicing in the sword tomb can be considered as compensation for you.”

“Thank you, senior!” Kai bowed!
Half an hour later, the Sword Sect and their group left the bustling city through the secret passage of Sword Saint City.
Standing on the hillside outside the city, Kai looked back and saw the outline of Sword Saint City gradually blurred in the setting sun.
“Kai, where are we going next?” Mo Chen asked.
Kai looked towards the west: “I want to go to the sword tomb first.”
“Okay, I’ll take you there. However, this Sword Tomb is different from the Ten Thousand Swords Cave. It’s a place of slaughter. Those with weak wills are prone to going astray.”
“It also depends on each person’s understanding. Not everyone who enters the Sword Tomb will be able to improve. Some people go in and come out as fools!”
Mo Chen told Kai about the dangers of the sword tomb.
“I’m not afraid. I’m going to give it a try…” Kai smiled slightly!
The group headed towards the sword tomb!
The Sword Tomb is located in the back mountain of Sword Saint City. It is a huge valley filled with densely packed ancient swords. Each sword exudes a faint sword intent, and they gather together to form an invisible sword domain.
Each sword represents a lost life, so there is a strong evil spirit under this sword domain.
“This is the place where the sword is buried,” Mo Chen said, pointing to a stone tablet in the center of the valley. “That stone tablet is engraved with the ‘Sword Saint Heart Sutra’. How much you can comprehend depends on your luck.”
Kai walked up to the stone tablet and saw that it was engraved with dense ancient characters. These characters seemed to have life, flowing slowly on the stone tablet and exuding a majestic sword intent.
Kai stared at the words on the stone tablet, and felt a vast stream of information pouring into his mind, and countless exquisite sword principles emerged before his eyes.
He seemed to see scenes of sword masters from past generations practicing their swords: some comprehended the sword will of heaven and earth on the top of a mountain, some sharpened their swords in a sea of blood, and some experienced the principles of swordsmanship and human nature in the marketplace…
After an unknown amount of time, Kai slowly closed his eyes, formed seals with his hands, and the spiritual power in his body slowly began to circulate according to the method of “Sword Saint Heart Sutra”.
An aura that merged with the “Sword Tomb” gradually emanated from his body. The ancient swords in the valley seemed to be inspired and began to emit crisp buzzing sounds.
Mo Chen stood in the distance, watching the changes in Kai, his eyes filled with amazement: “I didn’t expect his comprehension to be so high. He could actually resonate with the sword intent of the Sword Tomb in such a short time…”
Just as Kai’s aura and the sword intent of the sword tomb blended perfectly, and the ancient swords surrounding him hummed more and more rapidly, something strange happened!
The black evil spirit that was originally just a few strands lingering in the valley suddenly became violent as if being pulled by an invisible force.
They were no longer dispersing mist, but turned into rushing black torrents with a disgusting stench, converging from all directions towards the stone tablet where Kai was!
“Boom…”
The earth shook violently, as if a giant beast had awakened underground.
The ground of the Sword Tomb Valley cracked with the stone tablet as the center. From the countless deep cracks, white bone claws suddenly broke out of the ground!
