"You're born from a part of the Ancestor's soul, and your existence is to serve him as well as revive the Divine Phoenix Clan." The young girl's voice resounded in Nantian Fengyu's mind.
"From your mories, I can see that you are very attached to him, which is good. However, when the ti cos, I hope you can make the right decision… Live well."
Nantian Fengyu went silent when she listened to this. She was aware of the special soul in her body since she could rember things, but she had never known the purpose of her life.
It wasn't until the last ti the Divine Phoenix showed her the vision. It gave her life's goal, as she vowed to protect Yun Lintian.
The young girl's words seed to remind her of what she was aware of, but there was also a hint of her future.
"Fifth Sister?" Yun Lintian said gently upon seeing this.
Nantian Fengyu turned to look at him and said with a serious expression. "Junior brother, I will try my best to protect you."
Yun Lintian was taken aback. "What's wrong, Fifth Sister? Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"
Nantian Fengyu smiled and shook her head. "Nothing. Let's go."
Though Yun Lintian was confused, he didn't press further. After collecting all the bones and artifacts in this place, the two of them quickly walked into the passage at the end of the hall.
After walking for a few minutes, the two arrived at another junction with three passages.
"Which one?" Nantian Fengyu didn't feel any aura from the three and asked.
Yun Lintian looked at the map in his head and explained. "This labyrinth formation might look random, but it actually has a pattern. The map that Senior gave earlier explains it well."
"Our position will keep changing every ten minutes. Each ti, three or more passages will appear in front of us. However, we need to wait until we find two passages just like the one we faced previously."
"From then on, we will have to choose the right passage all the way. It will lead us to the passage that leads to the second floor."
As Yun Lintian's voice fell, the three passages in front of them slowly closed and transford into four paths.
"What if it doesn't appear?" Nantian Fengyu asked.
"Then we will continue to wait." Yun Lintian said while setting up a protective formation around the place before bringing a table, chairs, and pastries out. He prepared to stay here for a long ti.
In a blink of an eye, three days had already passed, and the passages in front of Yun Lintian continued to change, but the two passages one had never appeared again.
"Junior brother, there's really no other way?" Nantian Fengyu asked. During this period, she didn't do anything much besides sleep and ate. She felt this was a waste of ti.
Yun Lintian shook his head. "Unfortunately, no… Hmm?"
Suddenly, the five passages in front of him changed into two passages, making Yun Lintian's eyes light up.
"Let's go." Yun Lintian got up and stored everything away while pulling Nantian Fengyu into the right passage.
"This aura…" Walking halfway through, Yun Lintian suddenly perceived a familiar aura coming from the end of the passage.
Soon, the two arrived at an open space with several stone pillars seemingly forming into a formation all over the place.
When Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu looked at these pillars, they felt as though their bodies were pierced by countless blades.
"Sword intent." Yun Lintian said with a serious expression. These stone pillars were obviously full of sword intents and were very high-level. At least higher than the stone tablets on the Heavenly Sword Peak.
Nantian Fengyu looked at the pillars at a loss. When it ca to swordsmanship, she had zero knowledge about it.
Yun Lintian took the Profound Stone out and threw it into the distance, trying to check the situation.
The mont the Profound Stone passed through the nearest stone pillar, a terrifying sword beam imdiately shot out and destroyed it directly.
Judging from the aura of the sword beam, it was more than enough to kill any Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm's powerhouses.
"There must be a pattern." Yun Lintian said while scanning the stone pillars through the Eyes of Heaven. Unfortunately, he couldn't see any energy flow in the end.
"How could Xing Chen pass this place?" Nantian Fengyu suddenly asked.
Yun Lintian touched his chin and said. "He could even set up a trap for us. Obviously, he grasped most of the structure here. Perhaps he knows a solution to every trap here."
"Since that's the case, we can do it too." Nantian Fengyu said.
Yun Lintian nodded. The map the young girl gave him previously didn't explain any solution. He had to solve it by himself.
Buzz—
All of a sudden, the Heaven Piercing Sword necklace on Yun Lintian's neck vibrated and transford into its true form.
"Hmm?" Yun Lintian looked at the sword in confusion. Through the connection between them, the sword seed to tell him that it knew how to solve this formation.
"Are you sure?" Yun Lintian asked.
The Heaven Piercing Sword shook slightly as if it told Yun Lintian to trust him.
"Alright. Linlin, Qingqing, Fifth Sister. All of you stay here first." Yun Lintian told everyone and took a step forward with the Heaven Piercing Sword as a guide.
When he was about to reach the first stone pillar, the Heaven Piercing Sword suddenly slashed into the pillar, rotating it slightly.
Boom!
At the sa ti, a terrifying sword beam shot out of the pillar, but it aid toward the second stone pillar a few ters away.
The second pillar shook slightly, and nothing happened afterward.
Seeing this scene, an idea erged in Yun Lintian's mind. However, he wasn't sure if it was the case.
At this mont, the Heaven Piercing Sword had already flown toward the second stone pillar. However, when it drew closer, the second pillar suddenly released a similar sword beam.
The Heaven Piercing Sword shook violently and perford a vertical slash, diverting the sword beam's direction before the sword itself quickly hit the second pillar to rotate its direction.
All of a sudden, the first pillar released a sword beam. This ti, the beam went straight to the second pillar, and the latter imdiately shot another sword beam toward the third pillar in the distance…
