As night falls, Luoxia City is shrouded in silence.
In the inn room, the dim candlelight flickered. Chen Yang sat cross-legged on the bed, frowning slightly, holding the jade slip he bought from the Treasure Pavilion in his hand.
"Could it be that I really was wrong..." He whispered to himself, with a hint of doubt in his tone.
From the time he left the Treasure Pavilion until now, he has tried various methods to explore the secret of this jade slip, injecting spiritual power and using divine sense to explore.
He even dripped a drop of his own blood on it, but the jade slip still showed no reaction, just like an ordinary stone.
"Am I overthinking it? Is this thing really just an ordinary piece of warm jade?"
Chen Yang was a little discouraged and threw the jade slip on the table.
And with this collision, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a barely perceptible light flashing across the surface of the jade slip from the corner of his eye.
"Um?"
Chen Yang's heart moved, and he quickly picked up the jade slip again and looked at it carefully.
The jade slip still looked plain and unpretentious, without any sign of anything special about it.
"Am I seeing things?" Chen Yang rubbed his eyes and couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
He pondered for a moment and decided to try again. This time, he focused all his attention on his spiritual sense and carefully probed into the jade slip.
"Buzz!"
At the moment when Chen Yang's consciousness touched the jade slip, a strange wave suddenly emanated from the jade slip and instantly filled his entire sea of consciousness!
Chen Yang groaned, feeling as if his head was about to explode, and everything in front of his eyes was blank.
"What's going on?!"
The intense pain made Chen Yang gasp involuntarily. He quickly withdrew his consciousness, his face pale and his forehead covered in cold sweat.
"This jade slip..." Chen Yang looked at the jade slip in his hand with lingering fear, his eyes full of horror.
Although the fluctuation just now was only a flash, he clearly felt that it was an extremely pure force of space!
"Could it be..."
A bold guess emerged in Chen Yang's mind, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
He endured the severe pain in his mind and probed the jade slip again. This time, he was extra careful, not daring to be careless.
"Buzz!"
The familiar fluctuations came again, but this time, Chen Yang did not feel any discomfort.
His spiritual consciousness seemed to pass through an invisible barrier and enter a strange space.
This space is not big, only a few dozen feet in radius, and it is empty, with only an ancient stone platform standing in the center.
On the stone platform, there was a palm-sized golden box with complex runes carved on it, emitting a faint light.
"No wonder all the tricks I used just now didn't work... Is this a spatial magic weapon?!"
Chen Yang's heart was filled with shock. He never imagined that this seemingly ordinary jade slip was actually a space magic weapon!
If he hadn't accidentally fallen just now, causing the formation that had existed for who knows how long to have some fluctuations and become ineffective, he would have really missed it!
Chen Yang looked at the jade slip in his hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The truth is simple. He had injected spiritual energy into the man and swore his loyalty with blood.
After all this trouble, I finally dropped this thing!
However, the formation above is really powerful. Even when Xue Qing touched it with her own hands today, she did not find anything unusual about it.
He shook his head, put the jade slip away, then took a deep breath and focused his attention on the golden box.
The box felt slightly cool to the touch and did not have the metallic texture I had imagined. Instead, it looked like it was carved from some kind of jade.
Chen Yang scanned the box with his spiritual sense, and after confirming that there was no danger, he gently opened the lid of the box.
A simple and rustic ring lay quietly in the box. It was simple in style and pitch black in color. Only a red gem the size of a grain of rice was inlaid on the ring face, emitting a faint light.
Next to the ring, there was an envelope with only four words written on it: "Read by the Later One". The pen strokes were sharp, and there was a hint of domineering momentum.
Chen Yang raised his brows slightly. This handwriting... although it looks sharp and domineering, there is a hint of elegance between the horizontal and vertical strokes.
Chen Yang complained in his heart, but did not delve into it. After all, he was more curious about what was written in the letter.
He picked up the envelope and felt a cool sensation in his hand, as if he was holding a piece of thousand-year-old ice.
Chen Yang was shocked. The envelope still had a hint of coldness. He didn't know how it was preserved.
Moreover, Chen Yang could also feel how terrifying this cold air was.
If it weren't for the fact that it had been weakened by the passage of time, this envelope alone would have been another test.
He took a deep breath and slowly opened the envelope.
The letter paper was very thin and had a light yellow tint, and it was obviously quite old.
The handwriting was beautiful and neat, and it was indeed written by a woman, but there was an indescribable sadness and despair between the lines.
This formed a sharp contrast with the domineering handwriting on the envelope, which made Chen Yang even more curious about what had happened to the previous owner of this space magic weapon.
He suppressed his doubts and read the letter carefully. He saw the following words:
"I am the Saintess of the Tianyan Sect, Luo Yunshang."
"If you can see this letter, I must be dead."
"This space ring is a relic left to me by my master. It is called the 'Sumeru Ring'. It contains a small world that can accommodate all things."
"Everything I have learned throughout my life, as well as the inheritance of my master, is contained in it."
"My senior brother and I have been childhood sweethearts since we were young, and we have a close relationship."
"Unexpectedly, fate played a trick on me. My senior brother encountered an accident while out training. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured and almost died."
"I was heartbroken and begged Master desperately, hoping he could save my brother. Master finally agreed, but the price was..."
The letter ended abruptly here, and the last few words were blurred, as if they were stained with tears.
Chen Xuan's face was filled with shock, and even his fingers were trembling slightly.
"Luo Yunshang..."
Chen Yang muttered to himself, staring at the name on the letter, as if he wanted to see through it.
"One sword seals the sky, Luo Yunshang... How could it be?!"
A figure in white clothes as white as snow appeared in his mind. The figure held a long sword and stood proudly above the sky. With one slash of the sword, the sky and the earth changed color, and the sun, moon and stars were all eclipsed!
How domineering and powerful it is!
Even though Chen Yang had been known as the Qingyun Sword Immortal for a thousand years, he still admired this female swordsman who had become famous throughout the world ten thousand years ago.
It is said that Luo Yunshang is a rare genius that Tianyan Sect encounters once in a thousand years!
At only a hundred years old, he had cultivated to the stage of transformation of spirit, and even comprehended the true meaning of the legendary swordsmanship!
With her superb swordsmanship, she swept through her peers and was unbeatable. She even defeated the three great masters of the magic way by herself. She was hailed as the best female swordsman in the world of cultivation in ten thousand years!
