The Invincible Supreme Medical God

Chapter 1240 648: The Shocking Sword

...

The cultivator leading the Deep Water Sect is an old man, with many strange protrusions on his face, giving him a very sinister appearance. His pupils are vertical like a cat's, and whenever he blinks, anyone looking at him feels a peculiar sensation. Currently, he is observing the formation of the Spirit Stream Sect's spells above.

Soon, a beam of light fell and landed in another area of Mount Flamecrane. More than a hundred people slowly materialized, with Ouyang Jie at the front. When the woman from the Pill Stream Sect and the old man from the Profound Stream Sect saw him, their faces unexpectedly flickered.

"Daoist Chai!"

Ouyang Jie chuckled softly and then said, "Daoist Hai. Daoist Lin. Long time no see."

After all the disciples were realized, he waved his hand to dispel the protective shield created by the spell formation. Then, he walked forward.

As the Foundation cultivators began consulting, Yan Xiaobao rubbed his eyes and looked around, feeling somewhat puzzled. The sight of the giant sword made him breathless. Looking up, he realized he could not even see the end of the sword hilt; it disappeared into the clouds. It was truly astonishing.

Around him, light gasps could be heard, as other Spiritual Flow Sect disciples also raised their heads in shock at the giant sword.

It was at this moment that Bai Xiaobao noticed fewer people around him. They gathered over 200 people when they left, but now only a hundred were with him.

Zhou Xinqi was nowhere to be seen, nor was Lu Tianlei. However, Shangguan Tianyou, Ghost Hall, Beihan Lie, Gongsun Wan'er, Hou Yunfei appeared among the crowd, all currently studying the shocking sword before them.

However, before they began to sit cross-legged and create a jade sliding plate, it didn't take long. After infusing some spiritual power into the sliding plate, they began learning from the disciples of the Pill Stream Sect and the Profound Stream Sect.

Similarly, disciples from other sects also turned to look at the newcomers. Quite a few disciples looked at Yan Xiaobao. When seeing Yan Xiaobao, the expressions on the disciples' faces varied by group. Those from the Pill Stream Sect seemed skeptical, as if they didn't quite believe what they had heard about him. As for the Profound Stream Sect, they wore mocking expressions.

Yan Xiaobao felt somewhat surprised by all of this. After a moment, Hou Yunfei approached and handed him a piece of jade.

"You arrived late," he said calmly. "Before you came, Peak Lord and Ouyang Jie explained in more detail about the struggles we will face. They said the best way to stay safe is to kill as many disciples from other sects as possible. They also provided information about the Fallen Sword Abyss, and about the disciples from other sects. It's presumed that other sects also have information about us."

Yan Xiaobao held the jade sliding plate and poured some spiritual power into it. The first thing he saw was a detailed introduction to the Fallen Sword Abyss.

The Fallen Sword Abyss is also known as the Fallen Sword World and has existed for thousands of years. More than half of the sword is buried deep underground. The sword itself forms an inclined world, its depths filled with increasingly powerful earthly beasts, their bodies containing a substantial amount of earth energy.

The entrance to the Fallen Sword World consists of many underground caves, pierced into the sword's body during its fall.

In the sword world, not only are there zones of explosives formed by earth energy, but also banesouls. Many believe they are the souls of people killed by the sword, realized due to the presence of earth energy. Although they do not possess the same combat power as before their death, they remain dangerous. Fortunately, they are not smart and will not initiate attacks.

When Yan Xiaobao read this, he took a deep breath, deciding to keep a close watch on these minstrels. To him, they are basically like evil ghosts.

The jade sliding plate also provided details about earth energy. Essentially, there are two types of earth rope energy. One type is found in banebeasts. When a banebeast is killed, it releases some faint earth energy that can be collected into a Dao bottle and converted into an earth capture crystal. That crystal acts like a key, unlocking the method to collect the second type of earth energy. The fact is, ninety-nine percent of earth energy is fused with the world itself and cannot be directly collected. It must be summoned!

The world's earth energy is limited. Upon reaching the Foundation, based on the potential talent a specific individual possesses, a certain number of Spirit Sea Tideflows will occur. Therefore, the earlier one enters the Foundation, the better. Every person truly entering the Foundation decreases the total amount of earth energy in the Fallen Sword World. Generally speaking, unless some incredible disciple appears who obtains 8 Tideflows, there will be enough earth energy for 30 people to participate in the Foundation establishment.

Those who arrive early rather than late to the Foundation have a huge advantage. If someone is too slow, it is difficult to absorb enough earth energy to induce tideflows, making it impossible to enter the Foundation. After completing the introduction to the "Fallen Sword Abyss," Yan Xiaobao felt more than ever that this place was extremely dangerous. Frowning, he continued to carefully study the numerous images of various disciples from the other three sects. As he did so, he occasionally looked up to identify the disciple in the crowd and make a quick comparison.

The more he learned about the disciples from these sects, the more excited he became.
