Legend of Sword King

As they entered the portal and regained their vision, Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei discovered that they were in a large square with a huge fountain in the middle. Even now, there were still fountains of water erupting from the fountain, and they were surrounded by wide streets and a park on the left side.    

    

The two of them looked around and did not find anything special. In the distance, there were houses after houses. Cheng Qing and Zhao E exchanged a glance before the latter took out the bronze compass and looked at it. "Not here. It seems to be in the next area."    

    

Naturally, what Zhao E Mei was referring to was where Ling Tian was.    

    

The two of them did not leave immediately. Instead, they walked around everywhere, wanting to see what kind of treasure they could find.    

    

But soon, the two of them were disappointed. There was nothing here, and they had gone inside the house to check. After walking for dozens of houses without touching a single decent magical equipment, they decided to not waste any more energy and returned to the plaza.    

    

As expected, the gate did not send them back to the city gates. Instead, they came to a forest. Other than the tall trees, there was nothing else around them.    

    

"When I was outside the Peach Blossom Forest, I didn't see such a place in Nine Phoenix City." Zhao E asked in surprise as she raised her head and looked around.    

    

Cheng Qing didn't mind. "At that time, we can only see the side of the hill. This might be the back of the mountain."    

    

Zhao Li nodded, and at that moment, the trees in the forest suddenly shook, and a shadow rose up from the depths of the forest. Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei looked up and saw a stone giant, at least ten feet tall, standing up from the trees.    

    

Upon seeing Cheng Qing and Zhao E's expressions, the stone titan immediately pounded his chest and roared towards the sky like a gorilla. Every time Cheng Qing and Zhao E fell, the trees would fall and the ground would shake violently.    

    

Cheng Qing and Zhao E were astounded. Even a cultivator of the Xumi Stage was no match for such a giant, let alone the two of them. They turned around and entered the portal together without hesitation.    

    

The roof was several tens of feet high, and the pillars were so thick that neither of them could hug each other. At the other end of the hall, there were nine jade steps, and on the steps, there was a large throne. On the throne, there was actually a person who seemed to be staring at the two of them without moving.    

    

Upon seeing the person on the throne, both Cheng Qing and Zhao E's facial expressions changed. The person on the throne was dressed in a wide robe and leaned forward, appearing like a king overlooking the world.    

    

Just as the two were about to speak, they suddenly realized that the person was not alive, but rather a skeleton. Its shrivelled skin was wrapped around the bone, making it look especially ferocious.    

    

Cheng Qing and Zhao E looked left and right. After confirming that there were no traps, they carefully got closer. Only then did they realize that there was a jade on the withered person's knees. The first three words were, "Soaring Sky Technique"!    

    

"Soaring Sky Technique?" Isn't this the cultivation technique the Li Family was looking for? Why is it here? Zhao E Mei's face was filled with surprise and joy. She reached for the jade scroll, but just as she reached for it, a shadow flashed on the withered man's body before she could touch it. Zhao E Mei flew backward and landed heavily on the ground.
