Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1512

As soon as Wang Wei arrived in [Heaven Slashing Mountain], an assembly of sword wills and intents assaulted his spirit. He remained calm since he was not a swordsman and his spirit could take it, but the sight before him was oddly beautiful.

The mountain was a sword grave or monument. From the bottom to the top, swords of different shapes and sizes were embedded in the ground. The mountain itself was made of a unique material that could nourish these swords to preserve their spirit, sword intent, or sword will.

At the top of the mountain was a small mansion, and Wang Wei sensed ten terrifying sword wills from inside. He sighed but couldn't shake his head.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" Yan Hai said as she appeared next to him.

"I'm guessing these swords are from people you've defeated?" Wang Wei asked.

"Of course. The higher the sword location, the more memorable the swordsman was," Yan Hai said with pride. "Only ten of them are allowed inside my cultivation room."

Wang Wei looked at all the millions of swords in this mountain and sighed: "No wonder the other swordsmen hate and respect you." A swordsman's sword is a part of themselves; some even loved it more than their wives. However, Yan Hai would strip that love from them as a form of humiliation after defeating or killing them for her sword monument.

"It's an honor for them to have their swords here," Yan Hai said calmly. This thing started as a way to use other people's sword intent to sharpen hers, but eventually, it also turned into collecting swords from competent swordsmen.

"You should have branded it like that," Wang Wei added. "Make the mountain public for others, and make it look like an honor to be remembered by you. Had you done this, your reputation in the Sword Dao World would have been better."

"Brother Qi once said the same thing. There are quotas every generation for swordsmen to visit this place. And despite how they talk behind my back, most of them know a sign of a mighty swordsman is if their swords are here."

"Oh?" Wang Wei asked.

"Anyone who wishes to test themselves can summon my projection at any cultivation stage in this place to test whether they are worthy. Of course, these cunning bastards will cultivate a second sword to leave here," Yan Hai revealed.

"Don't tell me you've never been defeated?"

"I have, but it's usually during the lower realm," Yan Hai admitted.

"Do the winners get a prize or something?"

"Yes, they get to take a sword back or receive direct instruction from me," Yan Hai explained. "Many people who know they cannot get their swords from me cultivate the younger generation to try."

"That makes sense," Wang Wei nodded before looking at this sword monument with a daze.

"What's wrong?"

"I was just thinking that my father would love this place."

Yan Hai patted his shoulder: "His Soul Flame is burning bright, meaning he's alive, and that's all that matters. We will find him."

"I know," Wang Wei nodded, taking a moment to control himself. They slowly flew toward the mountain's top."How are things going with the Sword League Path?"

"I've started the negotiation, but I'm delaying things until the catastrophe. They should be more desperate by then and willing to pay a higher price."

"So, you've decided to cheat them?"

"It's the best approach, isn't it?" Yan Hai smiled.

"True. Have you started planning for the other sword paths?"

"I have activated our previous dormant agents, and they've revealed the Ultimate Sword Path has appeared in five other Chaos Worlds."
