Chapter 2243: Chapter 2263: Who Could Bear This?_1

Lin Chen was deeply shocked.

If this was really a sword, then what everyone had seen earlier, which resembled the tip of a tower, was merely the tail end of the sword hilt, and the cylindrical metal object engraved with countless formation patterns was just the hilt, the giant metal object extending horizontally was the cross-guard, and the massive steel slant below it was the blade, in fact, only one side of the blade.

How big would this sword have to be?

Just the length of the hilt was at least several thousand kilometers, and if we go by the usual proportion of hilt to blade for a long sword, which is about 1:3, wouldn’t the length of this sword exceed ten thousand kilometers, or even more?

Why would such a gigantic sword appear in these deep waters?

And how was this bottomless water area formed?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Lin Chen’s mind. The three people ahead also felt that something was off about this object and were discussing it in low voices when Lin Chen transmitted his voice, "This is a sword, a gigantic sword!"

All three faces changed slightly, and after thinking it through, seeing the scenes they had just passed by, the people accepted Lin Chen’s speculation.

This indeed was a sword!

Qi Wuchang said solemnly, "This world shows no sign of human cultivators, only Magical Beasts, so how could this sword have appeared here?"

Su Yanran’s pupils harbored fear, "Such a terrifying sword, what kind of great power would be needed to wield it?"

Zhong Shuyu stared at the dark and dense depths below and suddenly said, "Have you felt that the deeper we go, the denser the Demonic Qi becomes?"

All were startled and, upon closer feeling, found it to be true.

Qi Wuchang said solemnly, "Could there be something at the bottom of this water that emits Demonic Qi?"

The people exchanged glances, all thinking this possibility was very likely.

Zhong Shuyu said solemnly, "Demonic Qi can mutate these Demonic Beasts, eventually making them lose their sanity to become Magical Beasts that only know how to kill. If there is something below that releases Demonic Qi, could it have created the countless Magical Beasts in these waters, and could it be related to this Giant Sword?"

An idea flashed through Lin Chen’s mind, and he said softly, "Water evaporates, turns into vapor, rises into the air, then flows everywhere with the wind before turning into rainfall and returning to the earth. In this endless cycle, countless Demonic Qi will also be released into the entire world..."

Su Yanran’s eyes widened, her face filled with shock, "You mean to say that this body of water created all the Magical Beasts in the entire world?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I’m just proposing a possibility. After all, the formation of Magical Beasts comes from Demonic Qi, and Demonic Qi wouldn’t just generate without reason; there has to be some cause..."

Su Yanran thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Based on the depth of the hilt, we are at least ten thousand meters from the bottom. The Demonic Qi here is so dense already, what would it be like even further down? Thinking this way, what Friend Lin said could really be possible."

Qi Wuchang’s face was stern as he said, "Then what exactly is below us, and if we go down, will it be dangerous?"

Zhong Shuyu said sternly, "No matter the situation, we’ve come this far, we should at least explore, right?"

Everyone naturally thought the same, no matter what was below, with such a Giant Sword, who could resist exploring it?

Zhong Shuyu approached the blade, flicked it with his finger, and it emitted a crisp sound. After observing it carefully, Zhong Shuyu’s face filled with shock, "This is Wuyunjin, it’s extremely rare and incredibly hard, a superb material for Refinement, how much Wuyunjin must have been used for such a huge sword!"

Lin Chen asked, "The value of this sword must be very high, right?"

Zhong Shuyu closely examined the body of the sword again for a while and lifted his head with his eyes full of fiery radiance, "Just the amount of Wuyunjin alone is already a fortune enough to drive anyone insane, let alone that this sword also possesses an extraordinarily powerful Refinement Technique..."

Su Yanran asked, "What Refinement Technique?"

Zhong Shuyu pondered for a few seconds, "I don’t know."

Su Yanran’s eyes widened in shock, "If I remember correctly, you should be an Elder of your Sect Refining Artifact Pavilion, and you can’t tell what Refinement Technique it is?"

Zhong Shuyu’s expression was slightly embarrassed, "Yes, but I really don’t know what Refinement Technique this is. I can see some of its ingenious aspects, but I can’t understand it all..."

Qi Wuchang said solemnly, "So you mean this is an unknown, yet powerful Refinement Technique that you don’t understand?"

"Yes,"

Zhong Shuyu nodded affirmatively, "And that’s exactly why the value of this sword is immeasurable..."

At this point in the conversation, Qi Wuchang, Zhong Shuyu, and Su Yanran exchanged glances, each with a hint of an unusual look in their eyes.

Clearly, understanding the value of this sword, the three began to harbor greedy thoughts.

Lin Chen was naturally very curious about this sword, but such a massive sword, even if given to Lin Chen, Lin Chen wouldn’t possibly be able to move it!

Not to say Lin Chen, even if given to Qi Wuchang and the other two Daluo Ultimate Immortals, they might not be able to move it either, after all, such an immensely heavy Giant Sword, who could move it just by relying on their own strength?
