"Lin Bai, Duan Qinghong, follow me to the Forbidden Area!"
Su Jiannan spoke solemnly.
Upon hearing that Su Jiannan was taking Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong to the Forbidden Area, all the elders gasped in shock, taking in a cold breath.
"Is the Sect Leader planning to take Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong to where our Ancestor reached enlightenment?"
"Are they going to attempt it again?"
"The Thunder Sword Skill left by our Ancestor that shocked the world!"
"They said the Thunder Sword Skill is a powerful divine power, I wonder if it’s true or false!"
"Back then, Jian Xuan struggled to understand the mysteries of the Thunder Sword Skill for three years, can Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong do it?"
"I don’t know, it’s said to be of Heavenly Level Third Grade, but since our Ancestor reached enlightenment, no one from Spirit Sword Sect has been able to comprehend the mystery of Thunder Sword Skill in five thousand years!"
As Su Jiannan, Lin Bai, Duan Qinghong left the Conference Hall under the astonished gaze of all the elders, shock resonated throughout the hall for a long time.
"If the Thunder Sword Skill emerges, the rise of our Spirit Sword Sect will truly begin."
All the Elders were filled with anticipation.
Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong were both confused, though they had heard the elders mention the Thunder Sword Skill, they had no idea what it was.
"Senior Brother Duan Qinghong, do you know what the Thunder Sword Skill is?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
Duan Qinghong said, "I don’t know, it sounds like a sword skill, but weren’t all the sword skills within the Spirit Sword Sect stolen by Jian Xuan?"
Lin Bai nodded, "Yeah, what’s going on?"
Su Jiannan, walking in front of the two, spoke, "The Thunder Sword Skill is not a book, it is recorded in the Thousands of Thunders Caves where our Ancestor reached enlightenment!"
"This cave was originally the place of closed-door cultivation of our Ancestor, with sword marks left in the cave mansion."
"But since our Ancestor reached enlightenment, the sword marks in this cave began to emit a great sword momentum, gradually filled with the power of thunderbolts, any ordinary Human Elixir Realm warrior who steps inside would undoubtedly die!"
"Back then, our Ancestor from Spirit Sword Sect shocked the world with the Thunder Sword Skill!"
"Our Ancestor passed away abruptly, leaving no methods of cultivating the Thunder Sword Skill, so we guessed that the cave where the Ancestor reached enlightenment should contain his teaching of the Thunder Sword Skill!"
"Over the past five thousand years, many Sect Leaders and outstanding talents of Spirit Sword Sect have explored the secrets within the Thousand Thunders Cave, yet came up empty handed!"
"Very few warriors within the Spirit Sword Sect know about the Thousand Thunders Cave!"
"Since you two are about to participate in the Four Major Sects Martial Arts Competition, I want you to try your luck and see if there are any miracles left by our Ancestor in this cave!"
"If you can comprehend the Thunder Sword Skill left by our Ancestor, ruling Under Heaven would be like flipping your hand!"
Su Jiannan said with a faint smile.
Lin Bai hadn’t at all expected that there would be such a secret place within the Spirit Sword Sect!
But by the sound of Su Jiannan’s words, since it is the place where the Ancestor of the Spirit Sword Sect transformed, it must be an extremely sacred place, often inaccessible and unknown to ordinary warriors.
It was quite normal that the things inside the Thousand Thunders Cave were rarely known.
Thunder Sword Skill, the famed technique of the founding Ancestor of the Spirit Sword Sect, naturally held extraordinary power.
Passing through the palace group of the Spirit Sword Sect.
Su Jiannan led Lin Bai, Duan Qinghong, and others through the series of restrictive magic circles along the way, finally arriving at the core of the Spirit Sword Sect.
This place was a mountain range.
As soon as they entered the mountain range, Lin Bai heard the roar of staggering thunder from a distance.
A turbulent force filled the entire mountain range.
Lin Bai’s face turned pale.
Duan Qinghong was directly frightened to the point of trembling.
Su Jiannan led Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong forward.
Without further ado, they arrived at the entrance of a mountain cave.
Lin Bai and Duan Qinghong lifted their heads to see. At the entrance of the cave, enormous thunderbolts the size of water buckets incessantly surged out from within the cave. The terrifying powers permeated each thunderbolt and struck the canopy of the heavens as if possessing the power to destroy the world!
Inside the Thousands of Thunders Caves, it seemed as if a thunder god lay within. The frightening thunderbolts made it hard for any warrior to get close.
Su Jiannan stopped a kilometer away from Thousands of Thunders Caves and said, "This is the Thousands of Thunders Caves. You can try to see if you can go in and comprehend the Thunder Sword Skill left behind by our ancestor."
"Remember, if you can’t go in, retreat as soon as possible to prevent being injured by the thunderbolts!"
"But rest assured, I will be on the side to protect you. If anything goes awry, I’ll immediately pull you out!"
"Then Junior Brother Lin Bai, let me try first." Duan Qinghong said to Lin Bai.
"Alright, Senior Brother Duan Qinghong please go ahead."
Lin Bai nodded and said.
Immediately after, Duan Qinghong ceremoniously moved forward a few steps, saluted with a fist, and solemnly said, "Duan Qinghong, a junior disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, pays respect to the Ancestral Master of the Spirit Sword Sect! Please Ancestor, do not be angry, grant me the divine skill and bless the resurgence of the Spirit Sword Sect!"
After speaking, Duan Qinghong activated his cultivation, forming a defense before carefully advancing toward Thousands of Thunders Caves.
Lin Bai watched as Duan Qinghong progressed.
Eight hundred meters!
Seven hundred meters!
When Lin Bai saw Duan Qinghong coming within one hundred meters, suddenly a thunderous roar erupted from the Thousands of Thunders Caves, and thousands of thunderbolts akin to destroying world thunder dragons stormed out from within the cave, attacking Duan Qinghong.
The horrifying power turned Duan Qinghong’s face white, scaring her into a stupor.
Su Jiannan shouted in alarm and reached out to pull. An abundant spiritual power surged out, pulling Duan Qinghong out of the kilometer range, barely avoiding the thunderbolts’ attack!
Duan Qinghong returned to Su Jiannan’s side, clearly shaken, still unable to rid herself of the destructive power of those thunderbolts!
Su Jiannan softly said, "Duan Qinghong, it seems like you are not destined for this Thunder Sword Skill."
"Lin Bai, you give it a try."
"Alright." Lin Bai nodded.
The now pale-faced Duan Qinghong warned, "Junior Brother Lin Bai, that thunderbolt is extremely terrifying, possessing a destructive power that can obliterate heaven and earth. Be very careful. If you’re contaminated with even a bit of it, you’ll be disintegrated in an instant."
Hearing such a terrified tone from Duan Qinghong, Lin Bai became alert and cautiously approached the Thousands of Thunders Caves.
Three hundred meters!
As Lin Bai stepped within a hundred meters of the Thousands of Thunders Caves, the thunderbolts inside the cave suddenly surged out, rushing toward him!
"Hehe, such intimidating tactics can scare me?"
Lin Bai raised his hand and waved at Su Jiannan, signaling him not to intervene!
Su Jiannan saw the thunderbolts surging out, initially planning to immediately pull Lin Bai back, but unexpectedly Lin Bai told Su Jiannan: Don’t save me!
