Guo Lin was scared foolish, until now, he could not understand the situation, why the Xie villagers were not afraid of him.
Suddenly, a low rumbling sound appeared from far away.
Everyone quietened down, but Guo Lin’s heart was thumping, did the ancestor come?
Just at this time, a villager staggered in, his face full of fear: “The stone gravel beasts! The stone gravel beasts are here!”
Without finishing his words, the rumbling sound that was coming closer, caused the floor to shake like a sieve.
Before everyone could react, they heard a ‘boom’ sound, the incomplete wall, was instantly broken. Some of the stone gravel beasts the size of hills had broken in, and rushed into the village.
The stone gravel beasts were like a tide rushing in, causing everyone’s hair to stand.
Xie QIng’s eyes turned red, and shouted: “All the men of the Xie family get into positions! Xie Wan, bring the rest of the people, and retreat to the mountain!”
Is this the end….our Xie family sword village which had existed for 700 years, is this the end of our line…
Xie Qing’s heart was filled with sorrow, but he knew it was not the time to feel the sorrow, his sword aimed at Guo Lin, and said: “You will go and fight with us, if you guys can leave, I will spare you!”
Guo Lin’s face was pale, the color of white reaching down to his legs, but the cold sword tip of Xie Qing that was pointed at his throat, actually woke him up, as his face fluctuated, he clenched his teeth: “Ok!”
His heart had set his resolve, if he was able to live through this, the Xie family will not be spared.
The Xie family sword village, all the men who were able to wield swords, had red in their eyes, as they howled and swung towards the stone gravel beasts.

Seeing the amount of stone gravel beasts that covered mountains and plains like a big tide, flowing into the village, a black robed lady’s face behind a mask exposed astonishment. Beside her, was a blind old man, seated on a wheelchair, and a middle aged man standing behind and pushing the wheelchair.
The old man was frail and skinny, blinded, on his knee was an old fashioned Erhu.
“Is the Xie village broken through yet?” The old man suddenly asked, his voice hoarse and dried out, it was disgusting to listen to.
Quivering, she immediately replied: “The wall has already been broken, and the stone gravel beasts are entering.”
“I hope your information is correct.” The old man said indifferently.
The lady’s face changed, an intangible pressure, caused her to gasp for breath. She tried her best to expose a smile: “Blind senior relax, the news from Onyx Soul Horse are never wrong.”
If Tang Tian saw this black robed lady, he would definitely recognize her. She was the Onyx Soul Horse Jing Hao and him had met before.
“I heard you found the Lyra Treasury?” The old man suddenly asked.
The black robed lady hatefully replied: “Such a pity we met the people from Honorable Martial Group, and gave it up!”
Upon thinking of the encounter, her mood became extremely bad. She had spent countless of resources and energy, to finally find a lead on the Lyra Treasure, but in the end she was cheated by those two assholes!
“Honorable Martial Group?” The old man said indifferently: “You wanted to snatch up everything alone, don’t blame it on others.”
The lady in black kept quiet.
“Relax, if we are really able to find that sword, then that drop of blood is yours.” The old man said coldly: “For your little sister to have you as an older sister, she is lucky.”
The lady in black had her entire figure shake, her eyes suddenly becoming wide, angrily said: “You runned a check on me?”
“Why shouldn’t I?” The old man retorted.
The black clothed lady was mute, she tightly bit her lips, until they became white.
“Why use the stone gravel beasts?” The old man was oblivious to her anger, and asked directly.
The black clothed lady was quiet for a while, and explained: “The stone gravel beasts are earth affinity star spirit beasts, and can advance forward without obstruction, although they are quite slow. Wherever it cannot go near, it is where the treasured sword is.”
She continued explaining: “After a few hundred years, the surrounding soil around the treasured sword, will have a change in affinity due to the power of the sword, and the stone gravel beasts are unable to go near it.”
“Such an ingenious method.” the old man complimented indifferently.
The black robed lady bit her lips, and suddenly said: “This is Guo Dong’s territory.”
“I know him.” The old man nodded, the hollow eye cavity, was like a void hole, and his unpleasant voice, sounded like it drifted into nothingness as well: “Fire Crow Headsman. Keke.”
When he suddenly made that weird nose ‘keke’, the black robed girl jumped in fright.
The black robed girl did not dare say much anymore, on the outside, this old man’s character was normal, but he was a real demon killer that would not blink. And he had actually checked up on her, this caused her to be more afraid.
The old man suddenly let out an expression of surprise.
Those hollow eye cavities, were looking towards the direction of the Xie family sword village. The black robed lady noticed his surprise, and immediately gazed towards the same direction. She had just arrived, although the old man did not say anything, but she could hear, that the movements last time did not go smoothly.
A strong and vigorous figure, was in the middle of the stone gravel beasts, ever sword move would cause a stone gravel beast to fall.
The light cry of the sword could be heard very clearly despite the distance.
The old man kept on listening to it, and his constant emotionless face, suddenly exposed a praiseful look: “Such a splendid sword cry! Given enough time, his future would be limitless!”
“You will give him time?” The black robed lady asked back.
He shook his head, as he straightforwardly said: “No.”
He muttered to himself: “The last time we saw those two outstanding young men, but they have not appeared yet, that’s weird.”
It was like he felt sorrowful, but also felt like he was relieved.

Xie Qing’s sword was like the wind, the cry sounds from his sword, were like a current that never stopped.
Suddenly, ding, a metal fist, blocked his sword.
Xie Qing’s pupils constricted, it was the stone gravel beast king! It was the same stone gravel beast king that Tang Tian fought with that day! Xie Qing who had just had a breakthrough was not afraid, he waved his wrists, the long sword bringing along the cries, pierced out!
The stone gravel beast king’s brown eyes flashed a beam of light, its’ metal fists infused with earth affinity True Power, pounding towards Xie Qing.
The moment the sword and fist made contact, a formless ripple, abruptly erupted!
The wave was like a torrent, erupting out in all four directions.
All the stone gravel beasts the size of hills, were swept away by the wave, all falling down in every direction.
The stone gravel beast king was quick and rather smart, seeing that Xie Qing whom he had defeated a few days ago, was currently on par with it, it became angrier, and its ferocious character burst out.
Bellowing out loud, it rushed towards Xie Qing.
Xie Qing waited with rapt attention, the sword in his hand, continued to shiver, the crying of the sword did not stop.
Every time the earth affinity True Power and the guardian heart sword clashed, boundless Qi energy would be released.
Bang Bang Bang!
One after another circle ripples of Qi, with them at the center, would continuously appear.
One after another violent Qi eruptions bursting out, sweeping the entire battlefield.
Two shadows continuously clashing into each other had attracted the gaze of everyone on the field, the both of them evenly matched. But down to the scales of the battle, it was quickly tilting towards the stone gravel beasts. The strength of the xie family sword village, was basically unable to block off the continuously pouring in stone gravel beasts.

Inside the heavenly steed silver carriage, Tang Tian was pulling onto Ling Xu who was ready to rush out.
They were both awaken from the training.
“Release me!” Ling Xu angrily said as he looked at the battle: “You cold blooded person, how can you bear to watch them die to the stone gravel beasts”
Tang Tian rolled his eyes, as if he was looking at an idiot: “Can’t you see behind the people behind the stone gravel beasts?”
“So what, we just watch the villagers die?” Ling xu retorted.
“Of course not!” Tang Tian face looked heroic as he explained: “With you one person, you will be able to settle the entire field for them! I will be behind waiting for an opportunity, and pull those assholes out from behind the stone gravel beasts.”
“Then why are you holding me back?” Ling xu’s eyes widened.
“I heard there is an ancient spear technique, which is specially created to match with mounting, do you know of it” Tang Tian asked.
“Eh, how do you know of that?” Ling Xu was surprised, and said: “Mounting is not as simple as you think, and doing that is expensive, i do not have the money to do so.”
“Hey, to a godlike young man, mounting is the simplest of all simple problems.” Tang Tian under Ling Xu’s suspicious eyes, retrieved out the Flamingo, and generously said: “I’ll gift this to you!”
Ling Xu was stunned, but his eyes were dead set attracted to the Flamingo instantly.
Tang Tian did not understood the value of it, but he knew.
“Are you sick today?” Ling Xu looked at Tang Tian suspiciously: “Or what other bad ideas do you have?”
Tang TIan had an innocent look: “Am i that sort of person?”
“Yes!” Ling Xu was confident.
Tang Tian looked at him angrily: “Then i will be taking it back!”
Ling Xu laughed out loud, he flipped, activated Flamingo, and like a gust of wind, he rushed out of the carriage.
Bing suddenly appeared beside Tang Tian: “Why did you think of mounting?”
Tang TIan had a proud look: :Godlike young man has discerning eyes! Your kind of brain, is unable to comprehend!”
Bing: “…..”
When Tang Tian was fighting the last time, he noticed Ling Xu’s fighting style. Tang Tian’s intuition was extremely acute, and he felt that Ling Xu’s attacking rhythm, was somewhat delayed. It was reasonable to say that, with Little Xu Xu’s power, this kind of delay was absolutely not supposed to appear. After that Tang Tian then realised, the spear technique that Ling Xu was using that day, was different from the other days.
Continuing to think it over, Tang Tian noticed that, Ling Xu’s attacking style was not coherent, because he was lacking a mount. Tang TIan then immediately thought of the bronze mechanical ostrich that had changed into flamingo.
With the heavenly steed silver carriage, the flamingo was now useless in his hands, so he finally just asked the question.
But, this question was quickly flung to the back of his mind, and he curiously asked Bing: “Uncle, you say the one leading the stone gravel beast, what kind of person is he?”
“Someone powerful.” Bing’s poker face darkened: “I can instantly feel it, they are definitely not far.”
Tang Tian was eager, bursting with confidence: “Such a high degree of difficulty task, can only be handled by this godlike young man, then can it be a success!”
FInished, he jumped out of the carriage, from the back of the village, he quietly slipped out.
To avoid the stone gravel beast group, Tang Tian left the village from the back, went one whole big circle, and slowly made his way to the back of the stone gravel beasts.
Not long after, he suddenly saw a few figures.
Tang Tian’s mind was roused.
These people were the main culprits!
The killing intent in his heart rose, as he quietly made his way forward.
