Chapter 229 - 229 229 Opening of the Five Emperor Tombs Fourth Update

229: Chapter 229: Opening of the Five Emperor Tombs (Fourth Update) 229: Chapter 229: Opening of the Five Emperor Tombs (Fourth Update) Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli pondered for a moment before turning to look at each other, seeing the same decision in each other’s eyes.

“Fine, we’ll agree to his terms and give him the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood.

However, we must get the Earth Order Battle Skills tomorrow.” Gu Yunxiao said.

In order to obtain the Earth Order Battle Skills, the two had no choice but to reluctantly part with the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood.

However, they didn’t want to waste any more time.

If Long Yan took the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood but didn’t help them unlock the Battle Soul Stele, then…

“About that…I still need to consult with my Junior Brother and see what he thinks.” Zhuge Qianzhong was overjoyed in his heart, waiting for Gu Yunxiao to say those words.

“You wait here for a while, and I’ll go discuss with my Junior Brother right now.” Having said that, Zhuge Qianzhong left.

About half an hour later, Zhuge Qianzhong returned and said to Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli, “My Junior Brother said he didn’t expect the two of you to be so eager to obtain the Earth Order Battle Skills.

Seeing your sincerity, he’s willing to risk his life to unlock the Battle Soul Stele for you.”

Upon hearing his words, Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli almost spat out old blood.

Clearly, they were being tricked by Long Yan, making it seem like they should be grateful to him.

“Zhuge Qianzhong, we’ll trust you one more time.

If we don’t get the Earth Order Battle Skills tomorrow, our two great forces won’t hesitate to bring both your Pill King Hall and us down together.” Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli then each took out the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood and handed them over to Zhuge Qianzhong.

With the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood in hand, Zhuge Qianzhong was overjoyed internally but kept a straight face.

“Rest assured, I’ll personally guarantee with my integrity that my Junior Brother will definitely unlock the Battle Soul Stele for you tomorrow.”

“Do you even have integrity?” Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli both sneered at Zhuge Qianzhong in their hearts; if Zhuge Qianzhong had integrity, they would never have believed him.

……

“Junior Brother, here’s the stuff you wanted.” After sending Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli away, Zhuge Qianzhong went straight to Long Yan and handed him the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood.

“Sure enough, it’s the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood.” The Sword Soul Jade was only the size of a baby’s palm, seemingly no different from ordinary jade.

However, upon closer inspection, one could discern the differences.

Generally, Sword Soul Jade could only be found in Sword Tombs or the Daoist Domains of powerful sword cultivators.

Containing the Sword Dao’s artistic conceptions, Sword Soul Jade is a treasure for refining one’s Sword Dao.

The Ancient Sword Gate had a Sword Tomb, and this Sword Soul Jade had been bred within it.

Limited in quantity, it was the true foundation of the Ancient Sword Gate.

The Wanxiang Wood was only the size of a thumb and over a foot long.

It was crystal-clear, reflecting countless stars as if a star river world was hidden within.

The value of the Wanxiang Wood was comparable to the Sword Soul Jade and was equally a foundation of the Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect.

Long Yan looked at these two items, his heart filled with joy.

In his past life, he had gone to great lengths to obtain a piece of Wanxiang Wood.

“Are you satisfied now?” Zhuge Qianzhong was somewhat impressed by Long Yan.

In the past, he had also wanted to obtain these two treasures, but he had never been able to even after trying his hardest.

Now, Long Yan had easily succeeded in acquiring them.

“I would like to ask for more, but I know they wouldn’t hand over any more.” Long Yan laughed and then put away the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood.

His objective for this trip had been achieved.

“Tomorrow, all Battle Soul Steles will be unlocked, and I should be able to find the entrance to the Five Emperors’ Mausoleum.

I wonder if the Five Emperors’ Mausoleum really contains Strange Fires?” Long Yan was anticipating the Five Emperors’ Mausoleum, where he hoped to find the Strange Fire he needed.

On the next day, Long Yan, accompanied by Zhuge Qianzhong and others, arrived early at the mountain occupied by the Ancient Sword Gate.

“Elder Gu, Sect Leader Feng, the Sword Soul Jade and Wanxiang Wood have worked well; I have fully recovered.

I will open the Battle Soul Stele for you now.”

Long Yan looked at Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli, and said with a smile.

“Enough talk, just do it!”

Gu Yunxiao coldly snorted.

Even if he was about to receive an Earth Order Battle Skill, he couldn’t be happy about it.

His relationship with Long Yan, to put it nicely, is a transaction.

But in not-so-nice terms, it is a relationship between extortion and being extorted.

“Sure, sure!”

Long Yan chuckled and didn’t get angry.

He then walked up to the Battle Soul Stele and lightly slapped it.

“Boom!”

The next moment, the Battle Soul Stele released a beam of light which formed a light curtain, enveloping Long Yan within it.

“Damn it, this little bastard was indeed playing with us.”

Seeing Long Yan easily opening the Battle Soul Stele, Gu Yunxiao and Feng Wanli’s faces turned ashen.

So it turned out that Long Yan was just pretending the previous two times.

After a while, the light curtain disappeared.

Long Yan’s mouth curled up into a smile, and he said to Gu Yunxiao, “Elder Gu, I, Long Yan, am as good as my word.

I have obtained the combat skill from the Battle Soul Stele, and I will pass it on to you now.”

Next, Long Yan told Gu Yunxiao about the combat skill he had acquired from the Battle Soul Stele.

Jin Emperor Sky-Sealing Seal, that was the combat skill contained within the Battle Soul Stele.

After obtaining the Jin Emperor Sky-Sealing Seal and confirming for the third time that Long Yan hadn’t tampered with it, Gu Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he had paid a price, the combat skill was finally in his hands.

“Sect Leader Feng, let’s go and open the last Battle Soul Stele.”

He had already obtained the combat skills left by four of the Five Emperors, and he was still missing the one left by the Qing Emperor.

He was really looking forward to the changes that would occur once he had all five sets of combat skills.

“Long Yan, don’t you need some rest?”

Feng Wanli said with a cold sneer.

“Sect Leader Feng is right; I am going to retreat for a while.”

Long Yan said with a half-smile.

“You…

are ruthless!”

Feng Wanli choked with anger, his face ashen.

Following that, Long Yan and the others went to the last mountain peak.

In a short while, Long Yan had obtained the last set of Earth-Rank battle techniques and informed Feng Wanli of all the details.

After Feng Wanli had triple-checked that there were no issues with the combat skill, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

The Qing Emperor Heaven-Supporting Seal was a unique skill of the Qing Emperor!

Jin Emperor Sky-Sealing Seal, Qing Emperor Heaven-Supporting Seal, Xuan Emperor Heaven-Devouring Seal, Red Emperor Burning’s Sky Seal, Yellow Emperor Heaven-Shaking Seal!

These five sets of Earth-Rank Battle Techniques were left behind by the Five Emperors.

“These five sets of combat skills are indeed extraordinary.

Even among Earth Order Battle Skills, they rank quite high.

It might not be so simple to merge these five sets of combat skills.

After I break through to the Heavenly Martial Realm, I should be barely able to cultivate these five sets.

To truly master them, I’m afraid I need to break through to Martial King.”

Secretly, Long Yan was also contemplating these five sets of combat skills.

Without cultivating them, he didn’t know what was special about these five sets of combat skills.

However, since they were left behind by the Five Emperors, they shouldn’t be ordinary.

“Boom!”

At that moment, a sudden rumble echoed, shaking the surrounding space.

“What’s going on?

Could it be that the Five Emperor Tombs are about to appear?”

At that moment, everyone’s gaze trembled, and the Five Emperor Tombs were about to emerge.
