Chapter 615: Profundity Fragment

However, right at this moment.
"Stop!" A cold and grim shout sounded out suddenly, and it caused Elder Hu’s figure to stiffen and stop on the spot.
Elder Hu slowly turned his head around, and he saw the nearby violet clothed young man looking at him with a calm expression.
Earlier, it was precisely this violet clothed young man that had shouted at him to stop.
Elder Hu’s face sank.
A mere third level Void Initiation Stage kid dared to be presumptuous before him as well?
But when he recalled the terrifying strength of the young girl by the young man’s side, he worked hard to suppress the flames of rage in his heart and asked in a deep voice. "Is there something you need?"
Duan Ling Tian glanced indifferently at Elder Hu. "As the saying goes, there’s an order to everything… Up until now, I and Xue Nai have arrived here before you. Now, we haven’t chosen yet, but you want to choose already?"
Elder Hu took a deep breath when he heard this. "Then both of you choose first."
When he thought of how terrifying the yellow clothed young girl was, no matter how much Elder Hu wanted to kill the violet clothed young man before him, no matter how he hated the young man for borrowing the power of another to throw his weight around, Elder Hu could do nothing because of the situation he was in.
"Xue Nai." Duan Ling Tian looked at Han Xue Nai.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, you go in first… So as to avoid this old goat from playing some tricks." When Han Xue Nai spoke to Duan Ling Tian, her face bloomed into a smile, whereas, when she unintentionally looked towards Elder Hu, the smile on her face vanished and was replaced by a layer of ice that caused Elder Hu to be unable to refrain from shuddering.
"Alright." Duan Ling Tian nodded before flashing out to directly enter the Inscription Formation that contained the last Wind Concept Fragment.
There were only two Wind Concept Fragments.
One was obtained by the little black pythons, and it was a third level Concept Fragment.
"I wonder what level this Wind Concept Fragment is." Duan Ling Tian slightly looked forward to it.
As he stood by the small stone platform at the side of the stairway, Duan Ling Tian stretched his hand out slowly to move towards the box on the small stone platform.
After he opened the box, an azure colored fragment silently lay within, whereas, Duan Ling Tian’s perturbed expression completely vanished at this moment, and it was replaced with pleasant surprise.
"Fifth level Advanced Wind Concept Fragment!" Even though the Wind Concept Fragment he chose was inferior to the Lightning Concept Fragment that Little Gold had chosen, it was much better than the Wind Concept Fragment the little black python had chosen.
Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath and put away the Wind Concept Fragment with slight excitement.
In the distance, Han Xue Nai’s gaze lit up when she saw the Concept Fragment in Duan Ling Tian’s hand, and she hurriedly congratulated Duan Ling Tian. "Congratulations, Big Brother Ling Tian!"
Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled in reply, and then he put away the Concept Fragment in his Spatial Ring.
"Xue Nai, I’ll be going first." Duan Ling Tian notified Han Xue Nai before continuing to head down the stairway and head towards the third and final level of the Sword Monarch’s Treasure.
He wasn’t worried about Han Xue Nai’s safety.
Not to mention the third level’s tests were set based on the cultivation of each entrant, just Xue Nai’s formidable strength wasn’t something that just anyone could compare to.
Duan Ling Tian headed down the stairway, and a dusky patch of mist appeared before his eyes.
He hadn’t even completely passed through the mist when he felt a scorching aura assault his face.
"It wouldn’t be that Inscription Formation that condenses flames, right?" Duan Ling Tian guessed in his heart.
Only after he completely walked out of the mist did Duan Ling Tian realize that his guess was wrong.
Presently, although it was similarly a spacious cavern that had appeared before him, large amounts of lava were flowing through this cavern.
This place seemed like the inside of a volcano, and it gave out an oppressive feeling.
Of course, with Duan Ling Tian’s current cultivation, he was utterly unafraid of the lava before him.
His gaze descended onto the three foot long blades that were inserted all around the lava…
These three foot long blades had various different shapes, and they were scattered all around the cavern.
When looked at from afar, this place was like a Sword Tomb.
A Sword Tomb was the place that swords were buried.
"These swords…" Duan Ling Tian’s Spiritual Force swept out and inspected these swords before him at the first possible moment, and a wisp of a shocked expression slowly grew on his calm face.
"They’re all grade three spirit swords and above, and there’s no lack of grade two spirit swords." Duan Ling Tian’s emotions surged.
The three foot long blades that were scattered all over had shocked him.
Although he could be considered to be a grade three Weapons Craftsman now as well and was able to refine a grade three spirit sword, the materials to refine a grade three spirit sword wasn’t so easily found.
It was even to the extent that the materials for a grade three spirit weapon cauldron that used much more simpler materials hadn’t been gathered by him yet.
Unknowingly, Duan Ling Tian had continued to walk deeper in.
He’d only just walked a few steps when Duan Ling Tian’s Spiritual Force that was on guard felt waves of gentle fluctuations beneath his feet.
This sort of fluctuation wasn’t unfamiliar to him.
"Inscription Formation!" Duan Ling Tian’s expression became serious.
He knew that he’d activated an Inscription Formation, whereas now, what he needed to do was to deal with all the tests that this Inscription Formation brought to him.
But after waiting for a while, Duan Ling Tian didn’t feel anything was wrong.
"What’s going on? I can be sure that the fluctuation from before was indeed an Inscription Formation without a doubt." Duan Ling Tian was slightly puzzled.
Could it be that Inscription Formation has decayed after experiences so many years of time?
Right when Duan Ling Tian was slightly bewildered.
"Fortunate junior! This place it the third level of the Inheritance Tomb I left behind… I can be sure that your cultivation is at the third level of the Void Prying Stage so the following tests will be in accordance with the third level of the Void Initiation Stage." A sudden voice seemed to sweep over from all around and enter Duan Ling Tian’s ears.
"It’s him!" Duan Ling Tian’s pupils constricted.
He was able to discern that this voice was exactly similar to the voice he heard from the voice transmission jade slips in the first and second level.
It was the same person.
"Martial Monarch!" Duan Ling Tian understood that this was the voice left behind by that Sword Monarch.
"This Inscription Formation ought to be formed from a Voice Transmission Inscription and various other types of Inscription, and it’s able to detect the cultivation of others." In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian guessed the uses of the Inscription Formation that has been activated earlier.
It was none other than to detect his cultivation and remind him via a Voice Transmission Inscription.
"Even though this type of inscription is ordinary, yet it isn’t something that anyone could set up… It at least requires a Spiritual Force at the Martial Monarch Stage or above." Duan Ling Tian possessed the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, so he knew the details of various Inscription Formations.
The voice of the Sword Monarch didn’t stop and continued.
"There is a total of 6 tests in the third level of my Inheritance Tomb… Three of them tests wisdom and contain no danger in the slightest; the other three test strength, and the slightest carelessness will perhaps cause you to die directly."
"Once you’ve arrived at the third level of the Inheritance Tomb, there’s no way of retreat! Unless you pass through these three tests of strength, otherwise, the path that leads to the exit will not appear." The voice continued to sound out and caused Duan Ling Tian to feel an even more pressured.
It won’t appear?
Doesn’t that mean that if someone is unable to pass through the three tests of strength, that person would forever be left here?
"Amongst the 6 tests, 1,3, and 5 tests wisdom; and 2,4, and 6 tests strength… The person that’s the first to pass through all the tests will obtain my inheritance!" The voice sounded out once more, and it caused Duan Ling Tian’s eyes to be unable to refrain from shining.
Inheritance?
At this instant, Duan Ling Tian felt his breathing become hurried.
He never imagined that this Sword Monarch’s Treasure was actually established by that Martial Monarch for the sake of his own inheritance.
He originally thought it was a small game created by a Martial Monarch and there was no valuable treasure within it.
But not it would seem that he was mistaken, greatly mistaken.
"Wait…" Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have thought of something. "That Martial Monarch has always been saying that this place is his Inheritance Tomb…. Inheritance Tomb, is that a place that contains the things left behind by a deceased person? Could it be that this Inheritance Tomb was left behind by that Martial Monarch before he died?"
When he thought up to here, Duan Ling Tian’s heartbeat quickened, and his chest rose and fell like the bellows and was unable to calm down for long time.
Things that were left behind by a Martial Monarch before death, would it be anything ordinary?
"Perhaps, everything that Martial Monarch owned is here… But, although the rewards of the third level are many, it’s divided into 10 portions! If I want to obtain the best rewards, then I must be the first to pass through the six great tests set by that Martial Monarch." When he thought up to here, Duan Ling Tian’s mood calmed down.
He knew that everything after this would require him to go through it by himself.
Now, he was all alone.
"But, according to the words that Martial Monarch left behind, the tests of this third level is set according to my cultivation… I presume that besides the three tests of wisdom, I can deal with the other three tests of strength." Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
"Now, let the first test begin." Duan Ling Tian knew that every moment and second now was extremely precious, and he must pass through all the tests in the shortest time possible.
Only in this way would he be able to obtain the inheritance of that Martial Monarch.
Would the inheritance left behind by a Martial Monarch be simple?
Duan Ling Tian didn’t think so.
"Perhaps, that Martial Monarch passed away here… If it’s like this, that perhaps there’re Profundity Fragments in his skull!" When he thought up to here, Duan Ling Tian’s feelings that had already calmed down surged once more.
Profundity Fragment!
Within it was the comprehension of a Martial Monarch towards Profundity, and Profundity was an existence that surpassed Concept.
Even if it was the lowest first level Profundity, the strength contained within it was two times the strength of a ninth level Advanced Concept.
The ninth level Advanced Concept was comparable to the strength of 1,000 ancient horned dragons, whereas, the first level Profundity was instead comparable to the strength of 2,000 ancient horned dragons.
Ninth level Profundity was even comparable to the strength of 10,000 ancient horned dragons.
At that time, the 10,000 ancient horned dragon silhouettes that were condensed from the energy of heaven and earth would undergo a change and be transformed into an all new shape.
"But, even if I obtain the Profundity Fragment, I’ll be temporarily unable to use it… A Profundity Fragment transcends above a Concept Fragment, and only someone who had comprehended ninth level Advanced Concept or Profundity is able to comprehend Profundity from it." Duan Ling Tian heaved out a breath of air.
For example, if a Wind Profundity Fragment appeared in the remains of that Martial Monarch, then Duan Ling Tian could only start to comprehend Wind Profundity after he advanced his Wind Concept to attain ninth level Advanced Wind Concept.
