The Supreme Sword Master

Chapter 627

The Nether God’s Tomb wasn’t below ground, and it was on the surface instead. The tomb was extremely enormous and occupied an area of thousands of kilometers. Instead of calling it a tomb, one could call it a small city! When Tang Ye and Xiao Yuxi arrived here, it was filled with an ocean of people. Humans were the most numerous here, and there were over 10,000 of them, whereas, the remaining were from the nether territory, devil territory, and demon territory. The Nether God’s Tomb didn’t just possess Souls that could be utilized to improve one’s own soul, the treasures that the Nether God had left behind were here as well. So, how could they not be tempted by all of this? Tang Ye was surprised because he didn’t see Hun You and Mo Ke. Moreover, the three outstanding geniuses of the central territory weren’t here as well! Tang Ye shook his head and shot his gaze towards the entrance to the tomb because there was a 300m tall tombstone there, and there were a few huge words written on it — The times would be dark without the Martial God! Tang Ye asked Xiao Yuxi as he gazed at the tombstone. “What does that mean!?” Xiao Yuxi glanced at it and said, “It means that if the Martial God doesn’t appear in the world, then the world would belong to the Nether God. Why would there be such words here? Because the Nether God was killed by the Martial God of that age!” “The Martial God of that age?” Tang Ye frowned. He thought of Yuan Tong when he heard the words Martial God. Yuan Tong was once called the Quasi Martial God. However, it was a matter of the past, and Tang Ye didn’t know how Yuan Tong was now! Xiao Yuxi nodded, and she revealed reverence in her eyes as she said, “The Martial God of that age was truly matchless in the world and a true genius. Because that Martial God had comprehended 13 Intents, and he’d cultivated every single one of them to their limits! So, even the Nether God who’d attained the Saint Realm and possessed a practically undying body and soul had still died at his hands!” “13 Intents!” Tang Ye was shocked and said, “He was that outstanding?” “How could he be called the Martial God if he wasn’t?” Xiao Yuxi said, “Since time immemorial, the world would submit before the Martial God! Right, there was an exception, and it was during the age of the Founding Ancestor of the southern territory’s Sword Sect. The Martial God of that age lost to him. Besides that, so long as a Martial God emerged into the world, then the Martial God would reign supreme throughout the world!” “The Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor....” Tang Ye felt silent. It wasn’t the first time he’d heard about the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor. How outstanding was he? Countless people still feel reverence towards him even after 10,000 years have passed? After all, even someone as formidable as Elder Mu had revealed a trace of reverence when he spoke about the Sword Sect’s Ancestor! “He’s like a God in the heart of all Sword Cultivators in the world!” Xiao Yuxi said, “Because he defeated the Martial God of that age. After all, the Sword Emperors before him had practically always lost in the battle between the Sword Emperors and their ‘natural enemies’, the Martial Gods!” Tang Ye smiled and said, “Invincible throughout the world in life and renowned through the ages in death. Haha! That’s exactly how men should be like!” Xiao Yuxi glanced at Tang Ye, and then she fell silent. Time slowly flowed by and an hour passed just like that. When the last strand of sunlight west had vanished from the world, the sky had suddenly darkened. After that, a strand of cold wind appeared out of thin air, and it caused the expressions of everyone in the surroundings to change. Subsequently, the ground started to split up slowly before countless strands of black gas seeped out from the ground! “Watch out, it’s Death Energy that can destroy vitality. Don’t allow it to come into contact with your bodies!” Someone suddenly shouted. In an instant, everyone besides the group from the nether territory had hurriedly started evading the black gas, and they didn’t dare allow it to come into contact with their bodies. However, because there was truly too much of it, there were still countless people whose bodies were invaded by the black gas. In an instant, all of them who came into contact with the black gas had been instantly transformed into dry corpses! “Ah! Profound energy is useless against it! Save me! AHHH!! SAVE ME!!!”“I’m not going in there anymore! I’m not going in! AHHH!” “Save me....” Countless shouts resounded throughout the surroundings. Tang Ye frowned when he witnessed this scene, and then he flicked with his finger, causing a strand of sword qi to shoot forward explosively and blast the strand of black gas in front of him into powder. After that, he said, “What exactly is this? Why is profound energy useless against it?” He’d seen this black gas in the past because Luo Xue had utilized it to injure him in the past! If he didn’t have the tiny vortex, then he would have probably become a dried corpse at that time! So, Tang Ye felt a wave of fear when he recalled that event! “It’s Death Energy!” Xiao Yuxi’s eyes carried a wisp of a solemn expression, and she said, “It’s a type of energy that’s formed naturally from the spirit, energy, and essence of the body after a person dies and the person’s soul dissipates. This Death Energy can destroy the vitality of one’s body, so you absolutely must not allow it to come into contact with you. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to deal with!” Tang Ye nodded. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked towards the distance. He saw that the members of the nether territory were actually moving about and absorbing the Death Energy that others shuddered in fear from just hearing about! Tang Ye spoke with an astounded expression. “Why can they do that?” “Because there’s no vitality in their bodies at all!” Xiao Yuxi said in a low voice, “The Death Energy is extremely harmful towards us, but it’s just like the souls here and is greatly beneficial to them. Remember that the nether race can’t be compared to the demon race and devil race. They’re too mysterious, so you must be careful when you fight them in the future!”
