The staircase leading to the second floor of the sword pavilion is spiral-shaped.

After walking up a not-so-long flight of stairs, Su Chen finally stopped in front of a big door.

He was looking at the wooden door in front of him and the complex and special patterns on it.

His gaze finally stopped on a pit in the wall next to the door.

The pit is not big and is rectangular.

Su Chen thought for a moment and took out the Taichu Divine Sect disciple token from his body.

This is also one of the few items he can bring into the dungeon.

After the disciple token was placed into the pit, the token, which fit perfectly, emitted light.

Immediately afterward, the patterns on the second-floor door of the sword pavilion also began to light up.

Not long after, the door to the second floor, which had been tightly closed, opened.

Su Chen stepped through the wooden door and soon arrived at the second floor of this mysterious sword pavilion.

The room on the second floor is very spacious and has a large, round shape.

On the walls on both sides are sword boxes with the names of the disciples of Cangjian Peak written on them.

However, most of these sword boxes are empty, and there is an astonishingly huge sword mark on the west wall.

The sword mark went from bottom to top, directly cutting off one-fifth of the room on the second floor.

There is no doubt that this sword mark is the one Su Chen saw outside—the huge sword mark that spanned the entire sword pavilion.

In this regard, he deduced at the time that this sword mark could only be achieved by a cultivator at or above the Golden Elixir stage.

But this does not mean that the sword mark was made by a Golden Elixir stage cultivator.

After all, a great cultivator of the Spirit Transformation stage, or even the God Ascension stage, is also an existence above the Golden Elixir stage.

And he had never seen a being above the Golden Elixer stage take action.

That's why he made such a relatively conservative judgment at that time.

If he knew how the Sword Pavilion of Cangjian Peak was built, he would understand how big the gap was between his inference and reality.

The one who destroyed the sword pavilion was at the Golden Elixer stage.

Guaranteed to be a Spirit Transformation Stage!

Although the rooms on the second floor suffered considerable damage, they are still generally well preserved.

Therefore, many objects in the room are still preserved.

After confirming that there were not many valuable objects in the sword boxes on the surrounding walls,

Su Chen came directly to the center of the second floor.

Soon, he noticed a strange man kneeling in the open space in the center of the second floor.

Perhaps he noticed Su Chen as an outsider.

The strange man kneeling on the ground slowly raised his head and looked in the direction of Su Chen.

His action seemed to trigger a mechanism on the second floor, so that the braziers hanging on the surrounding walls were immediately ignited, instantly illuminating the originally dim space on the second floor.

"Who are you?"

Faced with the strange man's question, Su Chen did not answer immediately but walked up to the man and looked at him carefully.

This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.

Different from those heretic sword demons on the first floor, who are neither humans nor demons.

The man in front of him looked much more normal than them.

If he couldn't sense the strong smell of decay from the other person,

Su Chen would even think that the other person was just a normal person who had not seen the sun for a long time.

But unfortunately, all this is just appearance.

[Heretic Path Sword Demon/Foundation Building Magic Corpse·Fang Heng]

[Features: A magic corpse whose body is partially occupied by the heretic sword demon, retaining part of the memory of the previous life]

Because of the distance, Su Chen did not see his true situation and mistakenly thought that he was half-kneeling on the ground.

But when he got closer, he realized that he was not half-kneeling at all.

His body below the waist was devoured by the heretic sword, and his lower body turned into the snake-like body of a heretic demon, curled up on the ground.

But unlike the heretic sword demon on the first floor, who attacked immediately when he saw him, who at this time turned into a magic corpse.

But his mind does not seem to be polluted by the power of heretic ways, and he still has a certain degree of rationality.

Thinking of this, Su Chen did not rush to take action but sat on the mat in front of him without any hesitation.

If the half-demon, half-corpse Fang Heng was replaced by a normal person, the two of them would feel like they were sitting and discussing something.

"Taichu Divine Sect, Danyang Peak inner sect disciple, Su Chen, greets fellow Taoists."

"Danyang Peak?!"

Fang Heng raised his head excitedly as if he had heard some exciting news.

"May I ask, fellow Taoist, is the head of Danyang Peak, Ji Chang, still alive?"

"Master Ji Chang?"

"It's the True Man of the Earth's Core, Ji Chang, Master Ji Chang."

Ji, Ji Chang?!

When Su Chen heard these two words, his pupils shrank instantly.

"Are you talking about Ji Chang, the 64th generation inner sect disciple of Danyang Peak?"

"Inner sect disciple?"

Fang Heng was stunned, and there seemed to be a hint of doubt in the empty eye sockets without eyes.

It frowned and thought for a moment, then replied, "Was Master Ji only an inner disciple of Danyang Peak before? I don't know, but he is indeed the 64th generation disciple of Danyang Peak."

Hearing this, Su Chen's expression became more serious than ever before.

There was no doubt that the Master Ji Chang he mentioned was Brother Ji Chang, an inner sect disciple of the Taoist Linghuo like himself.

It is hard to imagine that Senior Brother Ji Chang seems to be cheerful all day long and greets everyone with a smile.

In the end, he became the master of Danyang Peak.

You should know that in the Taichu Divine Sect, Taoists represent the Golden Elixir stage, and peak leaders represent the Divine Soul stage.

Ji Chang was the 64th generation disciple, and he was the 65th generation disciple.

The disciple tokens that Su Chen picked up in Sword Pavilion were mostly from the 70th to 73rd generation of disciples.

In other words, the era in which the current dungeon of the Ancient Sword Tomb is located is only eight hundred years away from the era in which he was in the game.

During these eight hundred years, Ji Chang not only broke through to the Golden Elixier Stage with the aptitude of a seventh-grade human foundation-building cultivator but also reached the Golden Elixer Stage.

After that, he continued to advance like a hot knife through butter, reached the Divine Soul stage, and became the master of Danyang Peak.

How could Senior Brother Ji Chang's potential be so great? Thinking about it, Su Chen suddenly woke up.

"Excuse me, fellow Taoist, have you ever heard of my name before you were alive?"

"Your name?

"Su Chen?"

"Um."

Fang Heng frowned and thought for a long time, then shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Su; I'm sure I have never heard your name."

"Or maybe I knew it before, but after I was resurrected, I forgot this part of my memory. I'm sorry."

"Have you never heard my name?"

Su Chen's face turned pale at Fang Heng's answer.

Because if Fang Heng had heard it before but had forgotten the memories related to him due to the memory loss caused by the magic corpse transformation,

This was very good news for him, and it would not cause Su Chen to be greatly alarmed.

What he was really worried about was that Fang Heng had never heard his name at all.

Because if that were true, then the information contained in it would be too terrifying.

This means that he died before Fang Heng's generation of disciples joined the sect, resulting in Fang Heng never hearing of his name.

Or maybe there was no such person as Su Chen in the Taichu Divine Sect in history.

In reality, he was just playing a special game with the Taichu Divine Sect as his background.

If it was the latter, then he would only feel that there were still too many secrets in the game "Cultivation of Immortality" that he had not discovered.

But if it is the former, then the matter is undoubtedly serious.

Because it means one day in the future.

Either he died in the game or died accidentally in reality.

If he also takes into account the ten-to-one time multiplier between games and reality,

Then he might encounter a terrible life-and-death crisis within the eighty years in reality and the eight hundred years in the game.

Thinking of this, his brain started to work at high speed.

So, in the end, the self in the game has never actually appeared in the history of the Taichu Divine Sect.

He is just playing a small game that can give feedback on his cultivation.

Or he appeared in the Taichu Divine Sect but died before Fang Heng and his group of disciples could join the sect.

Which of these two is the real answer?

Because there are no other clues, he can't tell which one it is.

The feeling of knowing that he might die someday but not knowing how to deal with it.

This made the usually steady Su Chen upset.

Thinking of this, he was eager to get more clues from Fang Heng.

So he asked, "Fellow Daoist, I wonder if you at Cangjian Peak have ever been asked to learn the Purple Cloud Divine Light Technique?"

"Purple Cloud Divine Light Technique? Okay, it seems someone mentioned it, but who was it?"

Looking at Fang Heng with a frown on his face, his expression seemed very urgent.

Because he was eager to use this matter to determine the important answer in his heart.
