Chapter 2: Why Does My Sword Leave Its Sheath?

Invisible forces emanated from the Emperor Corpse.

The tomb trembled, the earth cracked, forming countless ravines.

Sounds of sword cries followed, as the swords in the hands of Heishui Sect disciples left their grip on their own.

One after another, Flying Swords fell, piercing into the ground.

The disciples of Heishui Sect, hanging in the Void, all had a change in their expressions.

"What's going on!"

As Sword Cultivators who hadn't entered the Sword Realm, how could they fight without their longswords?

Are they expected to fight barehanded against armed opponents?

This was suicidal!

"Something's wrong, fall back!"

Energy surged, and the disciples of Heishui Sect dared not move forward.

Upon hearing the command, all wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.

Their shoulders suddenly felt heavy; they were immobilized in their spots.

It was as if the Heavenly Dome was pressing down, leaving them gasping for air.

"What is happening? What's going on?"

"All of a sudden, why did the longswords leave our hands? This sudden pressure, could it be the Emperor's Power?"

"Is it because of the Fairy Sect Saintess? Is it the power of the Divine Sword above her head!"

Crisis!

A potentially fatal crisis swept over them.

It left everyone's hearts in chaotic disarray.

The avatar holding the Heaven Flipping Seal, the Heaven Flipping Seal refined by the Great Saint's cultivation in his palm was trembling.

"This isn't good, the Heaven Flipping Seal is scared!" the ephemeral figure said in terror.

This was a Magic Artifact refined by a Great Saint, imbued with the aura of a Great Saint's cultivation.

Now, even it was frightened, clearly, a more terrifying existence was awakening.

He eyed the Fairy Sect Saintess standing in front of the Emperor Corpse, Leng Bi Yue.

"Leng Bi Yue, we'll let you go!

Stop suppressing us, how about it!" he then shouted.

In his view, only Leng Bi Yue could have such means here.

No one else but her!

Because the sword above her head was refined by a Half-Emperor, a complete weapon.

Leng Bi Yue looked pale.

She was the closest to the Emperor Corpse.

Her body was already immobile, she could only watch helplessly as the Divine Origin Liquid she had stored over the years in the Divine Pond flowed out of her body.

Allowing the Emperor Corpse before her to devour it!

She felt both heartache and fear.

"That's my Divine Origin Liquid!"

Leng Bi Yue suddenly heard the words behind her.

"Let them go? I can't even move a step myself!"

She would have liked to leave!

But she simply couldn't escape!

Even the Half-Emperor refined Divine Sword above her head couldn't withstand the true Emperor's Power!

"Were they also immobilized? Is it the power of the Sword Tao Great Tao? Or is it merely the awakening of the Sword Tao Emperor, emanating the Emperor's Power?" Leng Bi Yue thought.

As the Emperor Corpse revived, the Tao Rhythm of the Sword Tao Emperor was also reviving.

Her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, her cold face could no longer hold its composure.

"The Emperor Corpse, is alive!"

The Emperor Corpse opened its eyes, looking directly at her.

Ten thousand years!

The Sword Tao Emperor, who died ten thousand years ago, opened his eyes!

His somewhat withered eyes, one of them gray as if a desolate star.

But that one glance still saw through her body, her heart!

It gave her a sense of majesty!

An unparalleled majesty that made her heart tremble, wanting to worship.

"Is this the Great Emperor!"

Even with a Half-Emperor refined weapon for protection, it couldn't block that piercing gaze.

That gaze made the Half-Emperor refined Immortal Goddess Sword above her head tremble, as if it wanted to escape her control!

"The body of the Great Emperor from ten thousand years ago, has completely come to life!"

She was the closest to the Emperor Corpse, feeling it most profoundly.

It was like a dead person, slowly coming back to life!

However, the opponent's strength seemed not very strong yet.

Only... the Divine Spring Realm!

"Why has it come back to life? Could it be that the Sword Tao Emperor never truly died ten thousand years ago?" Leng Bi Yue silently pondered.

Her thoughts, Yang Yan naturally did not know.

Although he had come back to life at this moment, he had only revived the Sea of Suffering.

Cultivation reached the Divine Spring, such power.

Wanting to control the Sword Tao Emperor's Emperor Corpse is naturally impossible, even concealing the Emperor's Power is difficult to achieve.

"I can barely lift my hand now!" Yang Yan thought to himself.

However!

He is the Emperor Corpse of the Sword Tao Emperor!

The Emperor Corpse's unparalleled strength, not susceptible to damage except by Emperor Weapons.

And on the Emperor Corpse, even though dead for ten thousand years.

Still, the Great Tao's Tao Rhythm condenses!

Sword Tao Emperor!

The Emperor's Rhythm naturally is the Sword Dao!

Belonging to the Sword Tao Emperor's own Sword Dao!

A slight movement can unleash the power that resonates with the Great Tao!

Yang Yan used all his strength, slowly lifting his hand.

With this lift, the Immortal Goddess Sword above Leng Bi Yue's head instantly escaped from Leng Bi Yue's controlling power.

Zi!

The longsword pierced into the ground!

Weng Weng Weng!

The longsword trembled, slowly bending.

Like a human shadow, kneeling in worship!

Bang!

Without the protection of the Divine Sword, Leng Bi Yue couldn't withstand the terrifying Emperor's Power and knelt on the ground.

"What is this power!" she thought in shock.

The longswords of the disciples from the Heishui Sect not far behind her now were completely bent.

The figure holding the Heaven Flipping Seal trembled all over.

"It's not a sword refined by a Half-Emperor, nor is it Leng Bi Yue!

It is, it is the Sword Tao Emperor, he's alive!"

Pa!

His figure, like a mirage, shattered in the air.

He fled directly!

The Heaven Flipping Seal, forged by a Great Saint and now uncontrolled, fell to the ground.

The other party was so scared that they didn't even dare to keep the Heaven Flipping Seal.

The vast Emperor's Power enveloped the entire tomb.

The disciples of the Heishui Sect also knelt down at this moment, bowing their heads in front of Yang Yan!

The Sword Tao Emperor's rhythm, possessing the revived Sword Dao.

Aside from the changes inside the tomb, in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the universe as well underwent great changes.

Divine Swords autonomously left their masters' control, stabbing into the ground.

Bowing in worship towards the direction of the tomb.

On the Holy Land Sword Mountain of the Heavenly Sword Sect!

Originally filled with Divine Swords, now they too flew out.

Landing on the ground, bowing towards the tomb.

Inside the Sword Sect, figures appeared.

The power on them, at the very least, was of the Taoist Palace's Cultivation.

"Why did my sword suddenly unsheathe?"

"My sword unsheathed as well!"

"Is it the Supreme and Peerless Sword Dao? Whose Sword Dao is it?"

The disciples of the Sword Sect turned their heads towards the Sword Palace!

In front of the Sword Palace, a figure in a white robe, with white hair, stood.

"The ancient Sword Tao Emperor's aura, which Great Emperor's tomb has been opened?" he thought to himself.

The Endless Sea, a land outside the starry sky belonging to no one.

The sea surface fluctuated, raising giant waves.

"Such a familiar aura, it seems to exist in the memories of my past life!"

Beneath the sea surface, an excited voice came.

"I remember now, it's the master, it's the master's aura!"

Boom!

A majestic fish surged out of the sea, dazzling brilliantly in the sky.

The fish transformed into a golden Flying Bird, disappearing into the Void.

In the Third Restricted Area, a black mountain vibrated, above the mountainous body.

A plain longsword, stabbed here.

Legend has it this is an ancient Emperor Weapon, whoever can pull it out shall become its master!

But for who knows how many years, no one has pulled out this sword.

Yet at this moment, the longsword did not move, but from inside the black mountain itself an old, rustic voice was heard.

This voice spread throughout the entire Third Restricted Area!

"Such a familiar aura, which old friend could it be?"
