After obtaining the inheritance from Zuo Zichan, Ye Yunfei felt his attainments in the sword path had improved significantly. As he now comprehended the sword inheritance of the Heavenly Emperor named Liu Qi, his perception was much sharper than before.
Not long after, Ye Yunfei had mastered an exceptionally sophisticated sword technique, and had also gained the lifelong insights and experiences regarding the sword path of this Heavenly Emperor Liu Qi!
He had even received a portion of sword path energy!
His level in the sword path had once again risen!
"Young man, Tianfu Sword accompanied me for the greater part of my life; it was like my own arm. I now give it to you!
To let it remain here buried with me would be a waste of its potential!"
Finally, a long sword shot out from within Liu Qi's tomb, landing before Ye Yunfei as a voice transmitted from the grave.
"Thank you, senior!"
Ye Yunfei bowed respectfully.
After that, Ye Yunfei moved from one grave mound to the next, focusing his perception on each.
Every single tomb was the burial place of a Heavenly Emperor!
From every grave, Ye Yunfei gained a sophisticated sword technique, as well as the lifetime's worth of sword path insights and experiences of the grave's occupant, and even their long swords!
Gradually, Ye Yunfei's mastery of the sword path grew higher and higher, and comprehending the sword techniques left behind by these Heavenly Emperors became progressively easier.
Without realizing it, Ye Yunfei had already studied the tombstones of several hundred graves!
His sword path prowess had skyrocketed at least several dozen times!
Moreover, he had obtained several hundred Heavenly Emperor-level sword techniques!
As his sword path level continued to climb, the speed at which Ye Yunfei deciphered those tombstones also accelerated.
At the same time, Ye Yunfei discovered that among these over one thousand tombs, they were graded in circles from the outermost region inward: the graves in the outermost few circles housed Initial Heavenly Emperors; followed by Intermediate Heavenly Emperors; then Advanced Heavenly Emperors; Perfected Heavenly Emperors; and finally, the nineteen tombs at the very center.
Not long after, Ye Yunfei had finished studying all the tombstones of the outermost Initial Heavenly Emperor graves and received their inheritances.
He then began to focus on the tombs of Intermediate Heavenly Emperors.
At this very moment...
Outside the Sword Grave, on the platform.
"Haha...
I've finally cultivated that sword technique to the entry level!
The time I spent wasn't even five hours!"
"I've also reached the entry level!"
...
Many Main World beings with high talent in the sword path had finally managed to cultivate the sword techniques they'd chosen to the entry level.
It had to be said, these Main World beings' perception was indeed very high; all of them came from powerful sword cultivation forces in the Main World, and their sword path talent was also great.
"Very well, you may enter."
The old man pointed towards the Teleportation Altar on the platform.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Many beings immediately rushed over and stood upon the Teleportation Altar.
The old man pointed a finger, activating the altar.
Several dozen Main World beings were teleported into the interior of the Sword Grave simultaneously.
"Everyone, redouble your efforts!
Strive to cultivate the sword technique you've selected to the entry level within five hours.
If you can enter this tomb, you're bound to obtain tremendous benefits!"
A powerful figure from the Sword-Guarding Manor said solemnly, boosting the morale of the manor's members.
Meanwhile...
Within the Sword Grave, Ye Yunfei was still concentrating on studying the tombstones atop the graves.
Up to this point, Ye Yunfei had already studied the tombstones of four to five hundred graves, gaining the sword path inheritances of as many Heavenly Emperors!
Among them were those of Initial Heavenly Emperors as well as Intermediate Heavenly Emperors!
Ye Yunfei's sword path level had directly skyrocketed!
"If I encounter an ordinary Half-Emperor expert now, a single sword strike would be enough to obliterate him!"
Ye Yunfei mentally evaluated his current strength, speaking with confidence.
"So many graves!"
At this moment, a group of several dozen people suddenly arrived before this graveyard area. Seeing the densely packed graves, they exclaimed loudly.
These were precisely the Main World beings who had just teleported in from outside.
"The owners of these graves seem to be Heavenly Emperors!"
The Main World beings cautiously approached some of the outermost graves and saw the words carved upon the tombstones.
However, Heavenly Emperors weren't considered extremely formidable experts within the Main World, so these beings weren't overly shocked.
"Eh?
Look, everyone!
Those nineteen graves in the center are most likely tombs left behind by powerful beings of the Fairyland!"
Suddenly, someone pointed at the nineteen tombs in the centermost region, shouting loudly.
Hearing these words, the fully focused Ye Yunfei suddenly opened his eyes.
Fairyland mighty ones?
If that's the case, the level above Heavenly Emperor is Fairyland?
"Hmm, I'll know the answer soon enough."
Ye Yunfei inwardly mused, before refocusing on his comprehension efforts.
"Look!
That kid!
He seems to be contemplating a tombstone!
Could these tombstones contain some profound secrets?"
Someone noticed Ye Yunfei in the midst of the graveyard area.
"There must be benefits to comprehending these tombstones!
Let's seize the time and start studying them too!"
Thus, dozens of them charged into the grave-filled area.
*Clang! Clang!...*
Immediately, terrifying sword rays continuously erupted from the graves, slashing toward these Main World beings and forcing them to retreat constantly.
"All these beings buried here were Heavenly Emperors in life! Everyone needs to release Emperor-Grade Treasures together to have a chance at dealing with these sword rays!"
A man shouted.
Thus, these several dozen Main World individuals began summoning artifacts one after another.
These individuals who could cultivate a sword technique to the entry level within five hours were all young geniuses within their major respective powers. They each carried Emperor-Grade Treasures with them, and were also trained in various profound techniques and martial skills, their combat strength being quite decent.
Through the combined effort of the entire group, they managed to slowly advance into the outermost cemetery area.
The outermost grave area exclusively contained the tombs of Initial Heavenly Emperors.
The inheritances left behind by these Initial Heavenly Emperors had long been obtained by Ye Yunfei!
Therefore, as these Main World beings attempted to study the tombstones of those Initial Heavenly Emperors, they gained absolutely nothing!
"How despicable! The outermost tombstones must have already been studied by that kid; whatever benefits existed have surely been taken by him!"
The Main World beings were furious.
Left with no other choice, they could only continue pressing deeper into the graveyard area.
However, the deeper they went, the more powerful the sword rays they encountered became.
*Clang! Clang!...*
When they stepped into the region containing Intermediate Heavenly Emperors, wave after wave of violent sword rays surged towards them, their might far greater.
"Argh!"
A man was instantly sliced into several pieces, his body and soul both obliterated.
"Fall back, quickly!"
The others paled in horror, hurriedly retreating.
"Let's join forces and break through!"
Someone yelled.
Thus, the Main World beings pooled their strength, activating their Emperor-Grade Treasures and charging forward once more.
At this time, Ye Yunfei was still concentrating on his comprehension.
As time passed, the number of graves Ye Yunfei had studied increased steadily; the sword techniques he obtained grew in number, and his sword path level continued its unceasing ascent.
By now, Ye Yunfei's body was entwined with thick beams of sword light. Every single movement caused the surrounding space to sizzle and warp, as if being carved.
From a distance, at this moment, his body seemed to be constructed from dazzling sword radiance, making one unable to look directly at him!
