Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable-Chapter 58: The Emergence of the Celestial Dragon Sword Tomb

Chapter 58: Chapter 58: The Emergence of the Celestial Dragon Sword Tomb

The Nine Swords Sect, with its thousands of peaks, was magnificent and immense.

Each mountain peak was like a sharp sword, piercing the sky.

Sword Qi overflowed, and Sword Intent shook the heavens.

The Myriad Swords Sect was reserved and profound, like a wise old man.

The Nine Swords Sect, however, was like a robust youth—brimming with vigor, its sharpness reaching for the heavens.

When Ye Tianling arrived here with Wan Jianyun, he fell in love with the place at first sight.

He loved this brazen, domineering arrogance; he loved this lawless atmosphere and spirit.

"Senior Brother, I heard you were coming. This junior brother has been waiting for quite some time."

Just then, a figure flew over from the sky above a Sword Peak, his voice exceptionally warm.

Ye Tianling noticed it was a middle-aged man in black robes. His eyes were long and narrow, his forehead was a bit small, and his cheekbones were high and prominent.

Overall, he was a middle-aged man who gave off a sinister impression.

Ye Tianling used his Sensing, and his Soul Talent activated instantly, revealing the man’s information.

’Chen Fengyan, Sect Master of the Nine Swords Sect, Sword Void Nine Transformations Realm.’

His Soul Talent had only detected the basic information, but for Ye Tianling, it was enough.

Wan Jianyun laughed heartily. "Fengyan, you just came out to greet me. ’Waiting for quite some time’? Since when did you become so disingenuous?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fengyan also smiled. "Wasn’t I just trying to get on my Senior Brother’s good side, so you’ll look out for your junior brother when good things come along?"

Wan Jianyun chuckled. "You are my junior brother, like a real brother to me. Of course I’ll look out for you first when something good comes up! Now, about the matter I mentioned to you before—this is my Direct Disciple, Ye Tianling. He is also a disciple Elder Die Xiyue is very fond of and plans to take as an Alchemy Disciple in the future. So, whether it’s for my sake or for Xiyue Fairy’s, you must cultivate his talents well!"

Chen Fengyan shot Ye Tianling a strange look. Deep in his pupils, a hidden flicker of sinister, venomous resentment appeared.

He didn’t let it show, however, instead feigning surprise. "Xiyue is that optimistic about this True Disciple of yours? Is his Talent that good?"

At the mention of this topic, Wan Jianyun’s face filled with pride. "His Cultivation Talent should exceed Ninth Level Sword Dao Talent. It’s at least the legendary Tenth Level! And as for alchemy, he has the Soul Talent. How’s that for good?"

Chen Fengyan froze, and a deep-seated jealousy flashed in his eyes, though he hid it extremely well.

He said excitedly, "A disciple with such outstanding Talent, and you... sent him to the Nine Swords Sect? Are the resources of the Nine Swords Sect even enough to cultivate him?"

Wan Jianyun said, "Of course they’re enough. Besides, this area is near the sea, with many ancient ruins and training grounds that are perfect for him. Also, doesn’t the Nine Swords Sect have a Sword Enlightenment Platform? In a little while, you’ll open it for him so he can comprehend a Sword Heart."

A troubled look appeared on Chen Fengyan’s face. "The Sword Enlightenment Platform is currently being prepared for that talented girl, Xiao Ningqing. She’s already formed a Supreme Sword Heart and is on the verge of condensing a Sword Spirit. If we suddenly revoke her eligibility, wouldn’t she have to wait another month? It would greatly affect her cultivation progress."

Hearing this, Wan Jianyun’s smile faded slightly. He said sternly, "Is her Talent higher than Tenth Level?"

Chen Fengyan replied, "Only Level Eight."

Wan Jianyun asked again, "Does she have the Soul Talent?"

Chen Fengyan said, "She has no Talent in Alchemy Dao, Array Dao, or Artifact Dao."

Wan Jianyun continued, "Then is she very close with you?"

Chen Fengyan’s expression became a little stiff and unpleasant, but he still shook his head.

Wan Jianyun said, "Then is there any problem with Ye Tianling using the Sword Enlightenment Platform first?"

Chen Fengyan stammered, "N-no, no problem. It’s just... this... isn’t this boy unable to condense a Sword Soul?"

Wan Jianyun’s expression turned a bit unnatural. "You don’t need to worry about that! As for... Ye Tianling’s resource allocation, follow the method used for the Myriad Swords Sect’s most elite disciples. I expect you to handle this matter diligently. Ye Tianling’s variant Fiery Sun Sword Body Talent far surpasses Ye Cangqian’s! Even with a mere copy, an Acquired Fiery Sun Sword Body, Ye Cangqian was able to achieve so much. It’s obvious what Ye Tianling’s future holds!

"Junior Brother, don’t you dare make the same mistakes of the past. Don’t be foolish again!"

Chen Fengyan’s face grew even uglier, but he still forced a smile. "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother. This junior brother was being foolish."

Wan Jianyun nodded. "Alright, let’s leave it at that. Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer a loss or make things difficult for you. The Myriad Swords Sect will bear the full cost of all resources Ye Tianling consumes. Just have Ye Tianling sign off on the list of resources with his Bloodline Power, and we’ll reimburse you for everything."

Only then did Chen Fengyan’s expression brighten considerably. "In that case, many thanks, Senior Brother!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Wan Jianyun gave a cool smile. "You shouldn’t be so petty. It’s just that if Ye Tianling grows strong, he will eventually return to the Myriad Swords Sect, so you feel wronged cultivating talent for us. In reality, the Nine Swords Sect is one of the core sects under the Myriad Swords Sect’s banner. Only when the Myriad Swords Sect grows stronger can the Nine Swords Sect and the other subordinate sects gain more prestige and authority.

"In the future, when Ye Tianling becomes successful, the Nine Swords Sect—the sect where he once stayed—will naturally rise with him. It might even become independent, a great new sect on par with the Myriad Swords Sect. That’s not at all impossible."

Chen Fengyan nodded thoughtfully. "Senior Brother, this junior brother was foolish. Your lesson is well-received."

As the two were speaking, the clear, empty sky suddenly darkened.

The sudden change made Ye Tianling, Wan Jianyun, and Chen Fengyan all feel an immense sense of oppression.

In the dark sky, the blazing sun seemed to have been covered.

In the sky, a Blood Moon suddenly appeared. It was exceptionally strange, like fresh blood—an incomparably scarlet and piercing sight.

When Ye Tianling looked at it, he felt a frantic throbbing deep between his brows. The figure within the Blood Moon seemed to appear once again, hacking away at that crooked-necked ancient tree, one axe strike after another.

BOOM—

Suddenly, the figure stood up and swung the axe in its hand fiercely.

Heaven and Earth trembled. Amidst the roar, the Blood Moon seemed to burst into flames, transforming into a sphere of gory fire. Then, from within the flames, a streak of bloody light shot out, rocketing into the distance.

"The Blood Moon rages! The Celestial Dragon Sword Tomb has appeared!"

Wan Jianyun’s expression changed drastically, and he spoke with a trembling voice.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother! This time, you have to find a way to help your junior brother, no matter what! This is the last chance!"

Chen Fengyan suddenly became incredibly agitated. The sinister ruthlessness and even the jealousy in his eyes vanished.

This time, his plea was exceptionally sincere.

"Alright, I’ll do my best to try! Fengyan, I’m leaving Tianling in your hands! Get him settled in properly. I’ll send you a message later, and you should come over as soon as possible!"

Wan Jianyun said in a grave tone.

Chen Fengyan immediately agreed. The moment he looked at Ye Tianling again, the enthusiasm in his gaze was unimaginable.

After exchanging a few words with Ye Tianling, Wan Jianyun departed in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Chen Fengyan used the Nine Swords Sect’s communication array to clearly relay Ye Tianling’s status as a True Disciple of the Myriad Swords Sect and the fact that he was here for training. He then directly gave Ye Tianling the Sword Enlightenment Order for the Sword Enlightenment Platform.

"The appearance of the Celestial Dragon Sword Tomb is a matter of great importance. The Sect Masters and Elders from many sects will try to go. This is a massive opportunity, an opportunity for us, so I must also find a way to go. Ye Tianling, with my personal message and warning to the Nine Swords Sect, they won’t give you any trouble. Just focus on your Cultivation and don’t worry about anything else. If you run into any difficulties, go find the Vice Sect Master and Law Enforcement Elder, Elder Qin Shuzong, to handle it.

"I have also explained the situation to him; he will arrange the specific resources for you. For now, you can reside on the vacant Elder Sword Peak—Celestial Sea Sword Peak..."

Chen Fengyan said earnestly, his attitude now quite enthusiastic.
