Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 312 This matter is absolutely unacceptable
The sky is filled with stars!

Sun Yanwan sat alone at the bow of the boat, cultivating the ninth transformation of the Xuanhuang Scripture, the Demon-Summoning Banner.

Perhaps it was due to the passage of time, but he had recently begun to vaguely sense that the hidden meridians of the Cave God were loosening slightly.

He circulated his inner energy seven or eight times, and suddenly his forehead exploded with a loud bang, as if something had been opened up, and a strange connection was suddenly formed between him and the Golden Light Cave.

Sun Yanwan "saw" it again, this time the strange Taoist temple, and saw countless bizarre creatures moving around inside. They were either fighting or roaring at each other, each with a fiery temper, seemingly wanting to kill the other.

An old man, dressed in a constable's uniform, walked among countless monsters, seemingly searching for something.

This was the first time Sun Yanwan had ever seen a normal person, and she found it all very strange.

The old constable walked very fast, constantly exploring the entire Taoist temple. This Taoist temple was nestled in a small mountain, but it was actually a very large place, possibly even several times larger than a world-famous palace like the Forbidden City.

This is something that cannot be built by human power.

Sun Yanwan suddenly felt a pain in his eyes and tears streamed down his face. He severed his connection with the Golden Light Cave. When he opened his eyes, he found them to be very bright. In just a short while, without any deliberate cultivation, he had actually mastered the Heavenly Vision of the Three Netherworld Hidden Veins.

The Three Hidden Meridians are also hidden meridians for cultivating extraordinary spiritual skills, but they are not as direct as the Three Divine Hidden Meridians. They are divided into Heavenly Vision, Earthly Hearing, and Heart Sensing. Sun Yanwan had cultivated Earthly Hearing before, and now she had also opened up Heavenly Vision. She felt that her eyesight had suddenly increased more than tenfold. She could see objects more than ten miles away clearly, as if she had loaded a high-powered telescope. The feeling was very strange.

Sun Yanwan couldn't help but wonder to herself, "How could I have suddenly opened up the Heavenly Vision Hidden Meridian?"

"Wasn't I cultivating the Hidden Spirit Vein?"

Yang Diao'er came out, and Sun Yanwan even felt that she could see the fibers of Yang Diao'er's clothes clearly.

He asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Yang Diao'er said in a low voice, "I can't sleep."

She sat down next to Sun Yanwan, gazing at the ripples of Yanchi Lake, lost in thought. After a long while, she said, "If you also want to go down, we're probably exploring Jinguang Cave right now, but we might already be dead."

Sun Yanwan chuckled and said, "Those predecessors who survived only founded the top sects at the time. We are already disciples of the Demonic Sect and the Songyang Sect. Your Heavenly Demon Art, Xuanming Yin Sha Art, and my Xuanhuang Scripture are all top-tier martial arts in the world. What's the point of going down there?"

Yang Diao'er asked in a low voice, "Have you really never considered what else is at the very top?"

Sun Yanwan took Yang Diao'er's small hand and placed it on her lower abdomen, saying, "If I told you, I would know what's at the top."

Yang Diao'er was shocked. She was different from Sun Yanwan. In fact, Sun Yanwan was different from everyone else. She was a true martial artist, and one of the most talented among them. Her lifelong ambition was to reach the pinnacle of martial arts! And what would happen after reaching the pinnacle? It was an obsession that lingered in her heart.

Even though Yang Diao'er would obediently listen to Sun Yanwan, she would always have something on her mind, unlike Sun Yanwan, who would simply not go to Jinguang Cave and had no regrets.

Then he said, "If I told you, I would know what's at the very top."

Yang Diao'er felt as if she had been struck by lightning a thousand times. Without even considering whether this was reasonable or not, she asked, "What is it?"

Sun Yanwan thought to herself, "Above martial arts, of course, is fantasy, but this world probably doesn't support it."

He chuckled and said, "My teacher's Wind-Riding Technique allows him to meditate while suspended three feet in the air." "Do you think," he continued, "if his martial arts were ten times higher, could he truly ride the wind and fly?"

“Every change in my Xuanhuang Scripture is named after the magical treasures of ancient immortals and gods. Did immortals ever truly exist in this world? And where did they go?”

"The legends of the Four Spirit Realms have been around for so many years, and everyone just wants to explore them. Have they ever thought about their origins?"

"So, it's not just me, everyone knows what's at the top, we just don't know how to get there."

"More likely, there is no longer a path to the summit in the world."

Yang Diao'er asked, "What if there's a road?"

Sun Yanwan laughed and said, "You know, Ba Tianmo, Wuyinghou, and I studied martial arts together. Our martial arts skills are not only not top-notch, but we are not even grandmasters. I am only a Xiantian. But whether it is Tianmei Wuying, Sixiang Yuangong, or Shentong Bangfa, they are all the most outstanding skills in the world."

“If there really is a path, it is not in the Golden Light Cave. The path that is closest to the right one is actually in our own hands.”

"If the three great martial arts holy lands and the Demonic Sect could bring out all their secret techniques, and all the top masters, grandmasters, grandmasters, and innate masters could gather together to study the ultimate martial arts, it would definitely be much more useful than going to break into the Golden Light Cave."

Yang Diao'er shook her head and said, "This is simply impossible. The three great martial arts holy lands and our Demonic Sect working together to do one thing is less likely than coming out of the Golden Light Cave alive."

"unless……"

"If you marry Princess Jiyatana of Northern Yan, we can barely have a little family of four!"

Sun Yanwan was startled and said, "This is absolutely unacceptable!"

He himself is from the Songyang Sect, Shi Si is from the Shaochan Temple, Yang Diao'er is from the Demonic Sect, and if you really add Jiyatana, the lineup is ridiculously exaggerated.

However, it was already quite good that Shi Si could tolerate Yang Diao'er, and there was absolutely no way she could tolerate Jiyatana as well. Moreover, Sun Yanwan had no feelings for Jiyatana.

The water in Yanchi Lake suddenly began to churn as if it were boiling over.

With a flick of her wrist, Sun Yanwan sent out several colorful silk threads. The Extinction Sword Qi touched something, but instead of shattering it, Sun Yanwan used a gentle force to scoop it up.

What was pulled up by the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Ray was half a corpse, as if it had been gnawed by something, its body covered in wounds. Judging from its tattered clothes and features, it was Huangfu Zi of the Mirror Flower Sword Boat, a dignified sect leader and a master-level expert, who was gone just like that.

Sun Yanwan and Yang Diao'er looked at each other in disbelief, completely surprised that they had actually managed to retrieve the man's body.

The waters of Yanchi Lake churned ceaselessly, with fish and shrimp constantly rising to the surface, but none of them were alive. In the dim light, there seemed to be other corpses as well. Sun Yanwan said decisively, "I wonder what strange changes Yanchi Lake might undergo. There might be danger. We must leave quickly."

Sun Yanwan sent a message to another pleasure boat, and the two boats sailed to the shore. However, most of the boats left behind by the other experts who explored the Golden Light Cave did not move and remained in place.

Although the waters of Yanchi Lake were churning, the waves were not large, and these people probably thought that their boat could only withstand the pressure.
