“The Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb that can hone Blade Intent?”

Upon hearing this, Su Changkong’s eyes lit up involuntarily.

Su Changkong had mastered Blade Intent for only a few years; he initially developed it at Divine Weapon Villa. However, he had many martial arts to focus on, indeed too many to spare much time to continue honing his Blade Intent.

And this Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, according to what Duanmu Tao said, could sharpen one’s Blade Intent, which naturally made Su Changkong quite excited.

A clump of Demon Monster King’s blood was indeed precious, but it was of no use to Su Changkong. Rather than keeping it, he preferred to exchange it for an opportunity to enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb. His own strength was the most important thing. Even if the tomb could enhance his power by ten or fifteen percent, it would be worth it!

“Alright, I can give you this Demon Monster blood,” Su Changkong decided after a brief consideration. He nodded in agreement, ready to trade the Demon Monster King’s blood for a chance to enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

“Brother Blade, please wait a few days. I will report this matter, but most likely, there won’t be any problems,” Duanmu Tao said with a smile as Su Changkong agreed.

Entering the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb was a privilege granted only to members of the Great Flame Royal Family, or those loyal to the royal family and potential experts. However, one only had the chance to enter once. To enter multiple times, one needed to earn it with contributions.

Duanmu Tao had entered the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb several times, all based on the merits he had accumulated.

Only those who had completed the twelve Heavenly Pulses were qualified to enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb. If one could comprehend the Martial Intent there, it would naturally lead to the realm of Five-Qi Grandmaster. Qi Gang, for instance, had mastered Sword Intent thanks to the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb!

Although over the years no outsider had entered the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, Duanmu Tao believed that the upper echelons of the Great Flame Empire would most likely agree.

After all, Su Changkong was a Great Grandmaster who possessed pseudo Divine Skills. Such a powerhouse, even if not loyal to the royal family, needed to be eagerly won over and befriended. Pushing him toward the opposition would be truly foolish!

“The Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, huh?” Su Changkong couldn’t help feeling some anticipation. This secret realm controlled by the Great Flame Royal Family could perhaps be of some assistance to him.

Five days passed, and Duanmu Tao found Su Changkong again.

“Brother Blade, the royal family has agreed to trade with you, willing to make an exception and let you enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb once.

You can head to the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb at any time; it is located a hundred miles away from Great Flame City,” Duanmu Tao delivered the good news that the Great Flame Royal Family had made an exception for Su Changkong to enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

“Good, let’s go right away!” Su Changkong had been waiting for some time and didn’t delay, ready to make a trip to the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

Duanmu Tao didn’t hesitate much either. After giving a quick briefing to Director Zhao, he set off with Su Changkong towards the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

A hundred miles north of Great Flame City lay the site of the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

The Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb was not heavily guarded; from a distance, it looked like an ordinary mountain. At the foot of the mountain lay a cave with a stone door tightly closed at its entrance. A white-haired, venerable old man sat cross-legged on a stone platform outside the cave.

This white-haired elder seemed very old, but his eyes were sharp and piercing, undoubtedly a master among masters.

This man was the expert ordered to guard the entrance of the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb. Su Changkong had heard from Duanmu Tao on the journey that the man’s surname was Liu, commonly known as Old Liu. With a mysterious identity, he had been guarding the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb for decades. With him in place, no accidents had occurred there.

Seeing this white-haired elder, Su Changkong could feel his Blade Intent vibrating slightly within his Sea of Consciousness, a warning sign that this elder’s unfathomable depth was anything but ordinary!

“Duanmu Tao? Are you here again?” The white-haired elder opened his eyes and looked at Duanmu Tao, a flicker of surprise flashing in his gaze.

Duanmu Tao visited the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb frequently, always wishing to push his fully-developed Blade Intent further, but unfortunately, without the necessary potential and talent, even multiple visits to the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb would be futile.

Duanmu Tao respectfully said, “Old Liu, this time it’s not me who wishes to enter the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb. It’s Brother Dao Wufeng. Here is the Token.”

Duanmu Tao took out a token engraved with the character ’Soul’ and handed it to the white-haired elder.

The elder took it, checked it thoroughly, and once satisfied, tucked it into his sleeve. He nodded slightly and looked up at Su Changkong, “Based on my observation, the Blade Intent in your Sea of Consciousness has not yet reached the stage of minor accomplishment… After entering the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, do not overexert yourself.

If you can’t handle it, come out immediately, or it could be life-threatening!”

“I understand,” Su Changkong nodded.

From what he had learned from Duanmu Tao before coming, he had a rough understanding of the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

The so-called Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb was a secret realm created by the ’Xia Yan Family’ of the Great Flame Empire. Inside the tomb were the Martial Intents of a great number of Five-Qi Grandmasters embedded within.

Numerous there had pushed their Martial Intent to Great Achievement!

Five-Qi Grandmasters were rare, and those who could develop their Martial Intent to Great Achievement were even more exceptional.

Yet in the more than two to three thousand years since the establishment of the Flame Empire, several top-tier Five-Qi Grandmasters had emerged, each leaving behind their own Fist Intent, Blade Intent, Sword Intent, and other distinct Martial Intents within the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb.

Over time, it formed the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb where anyone entering would face the onslaught and honing of these Martial Intents. If one could endure and hold on longer, using this to refine their own Martial Intent, then one would undoubtedly reap tremendous benefits!
