In the sky, a faint sound of a sword lingered in all directions. It was fierce at first, then became fainter and fainter, and gradually disappeared completely.

This moment.

The dark shadows around the void all retreated in fear, and some of the bloody eyes were filled with fear.

Although they are all dark remnants left over from the ages between heaven and earth, they also possess some instincts and know how to avoid danger and seek good fortune.

After realizing Chu Mo's amazing fighting power, most of the dark shadows naturally retreated and did not dare to approach within a radius of thousands of feet around Chu Mo.

In the blink of an eye.

As the dark shadows around him retreated, a wide passage seemed to appear in front of Chu Mo.

certainly.

Among them, there were some fearless illusory black shadows, but before they could get close to Chu Mo hundreds of feet in front, they were directly torn into nothingness by the extremely sharp sword intent and completely exploded.

boom!

Half an hour later.

Chu Mo moved and left the abyss of the restricted area directly.

But what appeared in front of him was no longer a dark place, but a bright day, like a paradise.

There is a vast area ahead.

This territory is like the dry bark of an old tree, with terrifying huge cracks appearing on it, exposing it between heaven and earth, which is extremely terrifying.

And between the sky and the earth at the end, there seemed to be a faint shadow covering it, like a barrier, which completely separated this area.

And within that barrier, there is an extremely huge and amazing valley.

Inside the valley is an ancient staircase passage that is a thousand feet long.

The ancient steps stand here quietly, as if they have gone through billions of years, with an eternal immortality. There is an ancient and terrifying aura spreading out, as if it lasts forever.

besides.

Around this hundred-foot staircase, there are many broken corpses, emitting a faint sharp aura, and a faint blazing divine light is spreading.

These corpses.

They were all dressed in ancient clothes, which had evaporated into fragments over the years and were scattered lonely on the corpses.

There were some magical weapons around the corpse, but they were no longer moving, as if they had become pieces of scrap metal.

The rust is so noticeable that it will completely disappear if a breeze blows.

Swish!

Chu Mo's eyes moved, and he walked slowly towards the barrier step by step, like a dragon and a tiger.

When he arrived in front of the barrier, it was only then that he saw this huge ancient valley, which was tens of millions of feet in size. The surrounding mountains were like two majestic and astonishing arrows, piercing the sky!

Standing in front of the valley, even Chu Mo still felt like he was facing great terror and fear, and a sense of insignificance arose spontaneously.

That's why.

That's because he felt a sword energy.

A faint sword energy.

Although it was very subtle, the sword energy was extremely sharp, as if it could tear the heaven and earth apart and recreate all things in the universe, causing this world and even the chaotic universe to tremble and crack.

Chu Mo had never felt that kind of sword aura before. In all the years of practice he had never felt such a terrifying aura.

Even if one is at the Dao Lord level, there is only one way to go, to perish under this sword energy.

He couldn't even hold on for a breath and was doomed to die.

"Is this the sword energy left behind by Emperor Kunwu?"

"Even after countless years, it still has an incomparably terrifying aura. Even though it's outside the barrier, its power is less than one-tenth of its peak power, but it can still kill the Dao Master."

"You can imagine the true power of this sword energy. It's probably enough to turn the sun, moon, mountains and rivers upside down, and destroy all living things."

Chu Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of solemnity in his heart.

Then his eyes moved, and he gently swept across the numerous corpses and bones within a hundred feet of the steps.

At this moment, for some reason, a sense of fear suddenly emerged in his heart.

It seems that once you step into the barrier, you will fall, just like the countless corpses that have fallen here since ancient times, losing any trace of existence and can only wait quietly for the arrival of new intruders after countless years.

laugh!

At this moment, Chu Mo's eyes flashed, and a vast divine power suddenly surged in his body.

In an instant, infinite divine light emanated from his body, and the fiery chaotic aura intertwined and surged, as if layers of heaven and earth could completely envelope him.

At this moment, faint dark auras emerged from around Chu Mo and fled madly in all directions.

"cut!"

A faint, cold voice sounded in the void.

boom!

As the sound emerged, countless ripples appeared in the surrounding void in an instant, and astonishingly sharp sword intent swept out, continuously spreading out and spreading wildly in all directions.

Above the numerous sword intentions, there is also a touch of overwhelming murderous aura.

Suddenly, the sword intent continued to spread, directly wrapping up the dark energy, then completely tearing it apart, and finally completely annihilating it.

As the dark air disappeared, Chu Mo's vision instantly became clear.

Looking again, I found that there were no longer many corpses in front of me, but only a few broken skeletons.

These bones were left behind by the ancestors of the human race who have guarded this place for eons.

besides.

He also felt an astonishing sword energy.

However, being outside the barrier, there was no such terrifying aura at all.

Compared to the previous feeling, that domineering and sharp aura was much weaker.

Obviously, these are all caused by the dark energy just now affecting the senses.

If Chu Mo had not finally woken up at the last moment, he would probably have fallen into complete fear, and then his heart of Taoism would have been shattered, and he might even have completely perished here.

“I didn’t expect that there would be such a crisis outside the Imperial Valley.”

"If you make a mistake, unless you are a genius with a firm heart, you will probably be in danger of falling."

A light flashed in Chu Mo's eyes, and he murmured.

certainly.

In Chu Mo's opinion, the dark energy here should be more of the dark evil thoughts that have been condensed here for eons and have been lurking here, and it should have nothing to do with Emperor Kunwu.

But anyway.

Now Chu Mo is about to face the real test.

Thinking of this, the Cangming Sword in Chu Mo's palm suddenly vibrated, and bursts of divine light continued to spread out in all directions, as if it was eager to try.

In addition, there was a faint cool breath that passed from Chu Mo's palm into his heart. In the breath, there was a feeling of wanting to compete with the heavens.

"oh?"

"Do you also want to go there and fight?"

Chu Mo's eyes flashed, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes turned cold in an instant, and a terrifying aura swept out from his body.
