The same thought emerged in the minds of the old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist.
They are so stupid!
Now, Ling Xiao has a terrible reputation on the Eternal Emperor Road. Not to mention those trial-takers, even the garrison commanders of the Imperial City are extremely wary of Ling Xiao. Except for some ancient geniuses and evildoers, no one dares to compete with Ling Xiao.
Moreover, not many people have seen Ling Xiao.
If they turned into Ling Xiao's appearance and imitated his aura, they should be able to scare quite a few people, right
Seeing the old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist's smirks, the White Dragon Horse couldn't help but despise them and said, "You two rotten scum, are you planning to use Ling Xiao's name to rob the tomb? Ling Xiao will be killed by you sooner or later!"
"Get out of the way! Ling Xiao is now a great killer on the Eternal Emperor Road. If we use him well, maybe we can get enough opportunities and luck to reach the peak of the Emperor at the fastest speed!"
The old goat rolled his eyes.
"Chance and destiny?"
White Dragon Horse's eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's right! Do you know why Jian Xiong has been chasing us? I think it's probably because of this broken sword!"
The unscrupulous Taoist nodded, and a light flashed in his palm, and a broken sword emerged.
Only the hilt and half of the blade were left of the broken sword. It looked simple and mysterious. It was made of neither gold nor jade, and had a layer of chaotic rust on it, which made it look quite extraordinary.
However, although the broken sword looks extraordinary, it is impossible to activate it. The old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist have tried to focus the original power into the broken sword, but the broken sword did not respond at all.
Moreover, the broken sword cannot recognize its master and is useless except for being strong enough.
"Is there anything strange about this broken sword?"
The white dragon horse came up and licked his face and asked.
"This broken sword is filled with the might of the Supreme Emperor. It should be the Supreme Emperor's weapon that has been destroyed! But more importantly, I vaguely feel that there seems to be some kind of secret sealed in the broken sword. As long as we can solve this secret, we will have unimaginable gains!"
The unscrupulous Taoist said slowly.
There was a strange light flowing in his eyes, and the Bagua pattern was slowly rotating, as if he could see through everything.
He was able to detect some secrets of the broken sword, but he couldn't see it clearly.
He could also vaguely feel that Jian Xiong was chasing them not just because they dug up Jian Xiong's ancestral grave, but also because of this broken sword.
"Can you show me this broken sword?"
Dugu Qiubai on the side suddenly said.
"no problem!"
The unscrupulous Taoist was slightly stunned, but still handed the broken sword to Dugu Qiubai.
clang!
Dugu Qiubai took it, with a strange look in his eyes. He flicked the broken sword, and it immediately made a clanging sound, with a mysterious light slowly flowing out.
It was like a vast starry sky spread out, and above the broken sword, bright stars appeared, gathering together to form a vast and majestic sword intent.
Dugu Qiubai actually activated the broken sword!
"What?"
The old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist were both shocked, their eyes full of disbelief.
"You can activate the Broken Sword? Could it be that this Broken Sword has something to do with you?"
The unscrupulous Taoist asked doubtfully.
"It turns out that the Sword of Stars is here!"
Dugu Qiubai sighed softly, his voice full of emotion.
"Sword of the Stars?"
The old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist priest became more and more confused.
"That's right! If I'm not mistaken, this is the Sword of Stars, the sword worn by the Sword Emperor in ancient times. I once inherited the Sword Emperor's sword intent, so I can activate the Sword of Stars!"
Dugu Qiubai nodded.
Before he entered the Eternal Emperor Road, he had entered the forbidden Star Sword Tomb. In the Star Sword Tomb, he absorbed billions of sword energy and discovered that the Star Sword Tomb was actually related to the legendary Sword Emperor and buried the Sword Emperor's sword intent.
But the Sword Emperor's inheritance and sword are not in the Star Sword Tomb.
Dugu Qiubai didn't expect that he would encounter the Sword of Stars here, but it was a broken Sword of Stars.
"The Sword Emperor's sword? Could it be that the Sword Emperor's inheritance is hidden in it?"
The White Dragon Horse's eyes suddenly lit up and his saliva began to flow.
The Sword Emperor was also a famous supreme emperor in ancient times. He left behind many legends, and White Dragon Horse had naturally heard of them.
Just like the current overlord of the sword world, the Tianjian clan, has a close connection with the Sword Emperor.
The Tianjian clan has also been searching for the Sword Emperor's inheritance, but has never found it.
If this is really the Sword Emperor's sword, the Sword of Stars, then the secret of the Sword Emperor's inheritance is likely hidden in this broken sword.
"It's possible! I can feel that this broken sword is vaguely pointing to a certain place!"
Dugu Qiubai nodded.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go! If we can find the place where the Sword Emperor inherited his legacy and let the old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist dig up the Sword Emperor's tomb, we will be rich!"
White Dragon Horse said with great excitement.
The faces of the old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist suddenly turned dark.
What do you mean by asking them two to dig graves
Is it so easy to dig up the Sword Emperor’s tomb
"go away!"
The old goat knocked the white dragon horse on the head with its hoof, pushed him aside, and then looked at Dugu Qiubai very seriously and said: "Dugu Qiubai, the inheritance of the Sword Emperor should be the most suitable for you, right?"
"I have integrated the sword spirit of the Sword Emperor, but I am different from the Sword Emperor. I follow my own sword path! The Sword Emperor's legacy is more valuable to me as a reference than as a legacy!"
Dugu Qiubai nodded, then shook his head.
"That's fine! Let's go. If you have obtained the Sword Emperor's inheritance, even without Ling Xiao, we can walk sideways on the Eternal Emperor Road!"
The old goat nodded.
"You mean, we have someone to back us up when we dig graves?"
The white dragon horse stretched out its head and laughed.
"roll!"
The old goat felt a little embarrassed and kicked again, but this time the white dragon horse was more alert and dodged it.
"let's go!"
Dugu Qiubai said with a faint smile.
Buzz!
There was a bright light in his palm, and the sword intent rose and poured into the broken sword. The broken sword trembled slightly, emitting a faint light, and floated in the void.
After the broken sword was integrated with Dugu Qiubai's sword intent, it seemed as if it had sensed something and instantly turned into a stream of light, flying away into the distance.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dugu Qiubai, the Old Goat, the Unscrupulous Taoist and the White Dragon Horse also flew into the sky and followed the Sword of Stars.
Jian Xiong fled back to Tianjian Emperor City in a very embarrassed manner.
When he arrived at the Heavenly Sword Emperor City and felt the vast aura of heaven surrounding him, and the thought that he could mobilize the power of heaven and earth at any time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That Ling Xiao did not catch up, it seems that Ling Xiao is also afraid of Tianjian Emperor City.
He felt somewhat unwilling in his heart. If Ling Xiao dared to chase him, it would be great. Then he could use the power of Heavenly Dao of Tianjian Emperor City to kill Ling Xiao directly.
"Greetings, Lord Guardian. The young master of the Heavenly Sword Clan, Jian Mie, is waiting for you inside the Guardian!"
A guard knelt on one knee and reported to Jian Xiong.
"Jianmie? What is he doing here?"
After hearing this name, Jian Xiong couldn't help but shudder all over, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.
Jianmie, the prodigy of the last era, was a monster who once competed with the Emperor of Heaven and Poxun Wushuang. Although he was overshadowed by the brilliance of the Emperor of Heaven and Poxun Wushuang, he was still incomparably powerful.
Moreover, Jian Xiong knew that Jianmie entered the Eternal Emperor Road not to compete for the opportunity to prove his Dao, but for the inheritance of the Sword Emperor.
However, in the last era, Jianmie failed to find the inheritance of the Sword Emperor, and finally chose to seal himself off. He fell into a dormant state for a period of time, and finally at this time, he once again embarked on the path to becoming the Eternal Emperor.
"Could it be... that he found the Sword Emperor's inheritance?"
Jian Xiong's mind moved, and he quickly walked towards the garrison.
In the majestic palace of the garrison, a figure in white stood with his hands behind his back, his back to Jian Xiong. He exuded a unique aura and a powerful sword intent was looming, which made people terrified.
On both sides of the palace, there were more than a dozen young men in white, with long swords on their backs, their faces cold and arrogant, all of them were geniuses of the Tianjian clan.
The look they gave Jianmie at this moment was filled with fanatical admiration.
Jianmie's cultivation was only at the eighth level of the Emperor Realm. It was not that he could not break through to the realm of the peerless emperor, but that he suppressed his own cultivation.
The eighth level of the Emperor Realm is the best state for him to accept the inheritance of the Sword Emperor. Not only can it allow him to break through to the peerless emperor in one fell swoop, it may even make it possible for him to take that step.
Looking at the figure in the palace, Jian Xiong's eyes revealed a hint of complexity, but he still stepped into the palace.
"Jianxiong, you're here!"
Jianmie didn't look back, and an indifferent voice sounded.
"Jianmie... Senior, I wonder why you are here this time? Are you here to fight for the secret of transcendence?"
Jianxiong said with gritted teeth.
Although Jian Xiong is the guardian of Tianjian Imperial City, their branch is also a branch of the Tianjian clan, but they moved to the Eternal Imperial Road several epochs ago.
And in terms of seniority, Jianmie is indeed much older than him.
"Of course we have to fight for the secret of transcendence! But before that, it is most important to find the inheritance of the Sword Emperor!"
Jianmie slowly turned around, revealing a handsome and indifferent face.
His eyes were bright and dazzling, as if sword energy was overflowing from them, so sharp that people dared not look directly at him.
"The inheritance of the Sword Emperor? Is there any clue about it?"
Jianxiong's eyes couldn't help but light up.
He is also a member of the Tianjian Clan and is equally interested in the Sword Emperor's inheritance.
"Where is the broken sword?"
Jianmie asked calmly.
"Broken sword? Are you talking about the broken sword you left to my father in the last era?"
Jian Xiong was slightly stunned.
"That's right, take it out!"
Jianmie said calmly.
Jian Xiong's expression was not good, but he still said with gritted teeth: "Senior Jianmie, the broken sword has now fallen into Ling Xiao's hands!"
Jianxiong recounted what had happened.
It turned out that the broken sword was found by Jianmie from a relic in the last era, but he failed to figure out anything about it. Later, before he sealed his name, he left it to Jianxiong's father.
Jianxiong's father also studied it for a lifetime and found that apart from being hard, there was nothing special about the broken sword. Over time, no one cared about it, and even after Jianxiong's father died, he was buried in the grave with the sword.
But no one would have thought that those two wicked creatures, the old goat and the unscrupulous Taoist priest, would actually dig up people's ancestral graves and steal the broken sword.
"Ling Xiao?"
A cold light flashed in Jianmie's eyes.
He had been in the Eternal Emperor Road for quite some time, so naturally he had heard of Ling Xiao. When he heard that Ling Xiao had snatched the broken sword, a hint of murderous intent spread in his eyes.
"Senior Jianmie, could it be that the broken sword is related to the Sword Emperor's inheritance?"
Jianxiong asked tentatively.
"Don't ask so many questions that you shouldn't ask! Let's go!"
Jianmie glanced at Jianxiong coldly, then waved his sleeves and left the garrison commander's mansion with many geniuses of the Tianjian clan.
The walk was extremely clean and neat.
Jian Xiong had never expected that Jianmie did not pursue his fault for losing the broken sword, but left so decisively.
"Maybe he's afraid that I'll suppress him? He must know where the Sword Emperor's inheritance is. Maybe I can follow him and take a look?"
There was a gleam of light in Jian Xiong's eyes, and he thought secretly in his heart, and his heart couldn't help but beat fast.
Jian Xiong's thought moved, and he immediately mobilized the vast power of Heaven to investigate Jianmie's every move.
After Jianmie left Tianjian Emperor City, a light flashed in his palm and a sword tip appeared. It looked extremely ancient and flowing with mysterious light, and the sword intent seemed to be able to see through everything.
As Jianmie was urged, the tip of the sword seemed to sense something and instantly drew a divine rainbow in the void, sweeping away into the distance.
"Did they really find it?"
A hint of excitement appeared in Jianmie's extremely cold eyes.
His entire body shone brightly, like a flash of lightning, and in an instant he led many talented disciples to chase after the tip of the sword.
"Does he really know where the Sword Emperor's inheritance is?"
In Tianjian Emperor City, Jian Xiong who saw this scene was also shocked and extremely excited.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth, and also soared into the sky and chased after Jianmie.
He would be unwilling to miss out on the legendary Sword Emperor's inheritance.
Perhaps, he could become the legendary oriole
"Young Master, Jian Xiong should be following us!"
In the void, a young man with a long sword on his back spoke respectfully to Jianmie.
"What a fool who doesn't know how to live or die. It's just right for him to follow!"
Jianmie sneered.
His original plan was to let Jian Xiong notice that something was wrong and even follow him. If he wanted to obtain the Sword Emperor's inheritance, how could he do without Jian Xiong as bait
As for the tip of the sword in Jianmie's hand, it was discovered accidentally by the Tianjian Clan in this era. It actually came from the same origin as the broken sword. Based on Jianmie's research during this period, he guessed that the broken sword might very likely contain the secret of the Sword Emperor's inheritance.
However, he was still too late and did not expect that the broken sword fell into Ling Xiao's hands.
But Jianmie did not have the slightest worry. He was confident that the Sword Emperor's inheritance was prepared for him, and no one else could obtain the Sword Emperor's inheritance except him.
As for Ling Xiao, if he doesn’t know what’s best for him, just kill him.
What's the point of slaughtering two great garrison commanders? In front of a peerless genius like him, he is nothing.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Guided by the tip of the sword, they crossed billions of miles of void and came to the depths of the chaotic space, which was already an area of chaotic wilderness.
But the closer they got, the louder the trembling sound of the sword tip became, and the more expectant the look in Jianmie's eyes became!
