Chapter 870 Jade Lone Sword

To Chen Guan's surprise, there was more than one woman; there were three other figures, all of whom were human, specifically three men.

Four figures landed on the platform first, each possessing the ability to fly and traverse the earth, moving incredibly fast.

"Fourth Sister, what happened? Was that the sword's cry just now?" One of the men, tall and thin with a hunched back, stared at the jade sword on the opposite mountain peak and asked with surprise and uncertainty.

“It must be the sound of the Jade Lone Sword, but the Jade Lone Master is no longer here. No one in the world knows the ‘Heavenly Lone Jade Shattering Sword Technique’ anymore. The Jade Lone Sword should not be able to break free from its seal. How could it possibly emit a sword sound?” Another man, who was only a little over three feet tall and looked like a big-headed doll, stared wide-eyed as he spoke.

"Could it be that the power of the Jade Lone Sword has become strong enough to break through the Heavenly Lone Jade Shattering Sword Technique?" The fat man with a big belly said this, then thought for a moment and felt that something was wrong: "Impossible. The Heavenly Lone Jade Shattering Sword Technique of Yu Gu Zi was created to control the Jade Lone Sword. It has been sealed for thousands of years without any problems. The Jade Lone Sword has not been able to break free. Without external energy supply, the power of the Jade Lone Sword will only gradually weaken. It is impossible for it to become stronger."

“Theoretically, that’s correct, but why does the Jade Lone Sword emit a sword cry?” the gaunt man said, looking at the woman.

The other two men also looked at the woman.

The woman glared at them: "You don't know? How would I know? I arrived just after you, and I don't know or have seen more than you do."

The pot-bellied man said, "Fourth Sister, you've been cultivating here all this time, so you naturally know more about the Jade Lone Sword than we do."

“Yes, yes, you often come to see the Jade Lone Sword, so you should have grasped some of the subtleties of the Heavenly Lone Jade Shattering Sword Technique. You should be able to see what this Jade Lone Sword is all about, right?” The man who looked like a big-headed doll chimed in.

The woman scoffed, "If the Heavenly Jade Shattering Sword Technique were so easy to see through, why don't you come and take a look?"

Before the three men could speak, the woman continued, "What a terrifying existence that Yu Gu Zi was! When he stormed into our Immortal Mountain Sect, he slaughtered thousands of our disciples until only the four of us remained. If it weren't for the Yu Gu Sword turning against its master, we probably wouldn't have escaped death either."

The woman rolled her eyes as she spoke, then continued, "If I had the ability to comprehend the Heavenly Lone Jade Shattering Sword Technique and control the Jade Lone Sword, I wouldn't be hiding here. I would have gone out long ago to slaughter all those Sky Mystic Spirits."

The other three agreed with his assessment. The gaunt man said with a uncertain expression, "The Jade Lone Sword emitted a sword cry, which is an ominous sign. If the Jade Lone Sword breaks free, given its ferocity, I'm afraid none of us will survive."

"So what? Can you destroy the Jade Lone Sword, or escape from the Immortal Mountain Sect?" the woman said with a sneer.

"If we could destroy the Jade Lone Sword, we wouldn't leave it here. Going out is absolutely out of the question. Those Sky Spirits outside are beyond our capabilities; going out would only mean certain death..."

The group discussed for a long time but couldn't come up with any useful solutions. They simply decided that the four of them would take turns looking at the Jade Lone Sword to see if it would exhibit any other unusual behavior.

Chen Guan overheard their conversation and obtained quite a bit of useful information.

It is now certain that this is indeed the Sky Secret Realm, but unexpectedly, there are human sects within it.

Judging from what the four people said, their Immortal Mountain Sect originally had at least several thousand people, but they were almost all killed by the owner of the jade sword. As for the owner of the jade sword, Yu Gu Zi, he was backfired by the jade sword and sealed it here, but his fate is unknown.

Chen Guan guessed that he must be dead. If Yu Gu Jian was not dead, why would he not come to take Yu Gu Jian?

"That woman's strength is already unfathomable, with the ability to divide mountains and gather clouds. Her three fellow disciples also seem to be quite strong. Such powerful humans are terrified of the Sky Spirits, only daring to hide within the Immortal Mountain Sect and not daring to go out. Just how powerful are those Sky Spirits?" Chen Guan was secretly shocked.

"That Jade Solitary One must be a Sky Spirit. He single-handedly killed so many people from the Immortal Mountain Sect, almost wiping them out. This shows just how terrifying the Sky Spirit's strength is." Chen Guan became more and more alarmed as he thought about it.

The good news is that there shouldn't be any Sky Spirits in this place for the time being, only these four disciples of the Immortal Mountain Sect.

In that case, perhaps he would have a chance to go out and retrieve those liquid elemental energies.

However, it's definitely not possible in the near future. With these four people taking turns watching over the Jade Lone Sword, even if Chen Guan has great abilities, it's impossible for him to swallow the liquid elemental energy under their noses.

Chen Guan decided to wait a while and then find an opportunity to retrieve the vital energy from the pool.

Chen Guan dared not use the reversed Heavenly Jade Shattering Sword Technique again.

The Jade Lone Sword is so ferocious that if it were to escape, I fear I would not have a good end either.

It dared to turn against even its own master, Yu Guzi, let alone Chen Guan, a human.

Another month passed, and the four guards took turns watching over the Jade Lone Sword without even blinking, so Chen Guan really had no chance.

"If we keep waiting like this, who knows how long we'll have to wait?" Chen Guan came to the stone cave again, looked outside, and found that the big-headed doll was sitting on the opposite platform, staring at them. He felt very depressed.

Chen Guan pondered whether there was any way to retrieve the liquid elemental energy right under the noses of those four people, or even just to retrieve some to aid his cultivation.

"If Gao Weiqiang were here, that would be great. It's a pity he hasn't reached the seventh level of enlightenment yet, so he can't come to the Great Cave Heaven." Chen Guan then thought, "If he were to come here, he doesn't necessarily need to reach the seventh level of enlightenment. I can take the ring out to find him and bring him into the ring's space. I just don't know if his talent is enough to make those four Immortal Mountain Sect members ignore his existence..."

As he was thinking, Chen Guan suddenly slapped his forehead: "That's right, how could I forget about this? There's no need to bring Gao Weiqiang over at all. I just need to imitate Gao Weiqiang's abilities, modify my secret law, and make those Immortal Mountain Sect people ignore or even not see me. Wouldn't that be enough to get the liquid primordial energy?"

"No, it's still not safe if they can't see me. I need to be like Gao Weiqiang and lower my own profile so they can ignore me. That's the only way to be safe." Chen Guan's mind raced as he thought about how to modify his secret law to ensure 100% safety.

Although Chen Guan thought the method was feasible, he did not rush out because he did not know what kind of abilities these humans in the Sky Secret Realm had. What if someone could detect his low presence?
