Chapter 37: Liuhe Sword Monument
Just one day later, Yan Tianxin brought Lu Ran, Qin Wuyao, and several elders of the Tiandao League to the sacred mountain of the Jiuli Holy Land, the Tomb of Ten Thousand Swords!
Lu Ran and Qin Wuyao had been here once, and Lu Ran even used the Wanjian Guizong to sense it roughly.

But when he really arrived at the top of the holy mountain this time, Lu Ran discovered that the scale of the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb was much larger than he had previously felt. This was something that could only be felt firsthand by standing on the top of the holy mountain in person.

Unlike other sacred mountains and precious places, the vegetation and trees in the entire Wanjian Tomb are not lush, and are even a bit sparse.

From the top of the mountain down, there were all kinds of swords stuck everywhere.

Longsword, shortsword, rapier, broadsword, etc...

Lu Ran casually moved closer. It was a long sword with exquisite shape, but due to its age, it was inevitably somewhat decayed.

Lu Ran reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword, trying to pull it out, but the sword didn't move at all!
Lu Ran even used his spiritual power, but the harder he tried, the more he felt that the long sword and the Tomb of Ten Thousand Swords seemed to be combined into one whole!
The harder you try, the stronger the resistance of the Heavenly Law becomes. It doesn't feel like pulling out a sword, but more like pulling up the entire holy mountain!
“There’s no need to try. Although the Tomb of Ten Thousand Swords is filled with all kinds of magical weapons, the whole holy mountain is integrated because of the suppression of the heavenly rules left over from the ancient battlefield. Not a single sword can be pulled out.” Yan Tianxin said to Lu Ran.

Qin Wuyao also said so, and Lu Ran gave up decisively.

But he was sure that with his Wanjian Guizong, he could pull out all the swords here and control them!

You know, according to Qin Wuyao and Yan Tianxin, there are even some heavenly-grade magical weapons among them!
There are countless earth-level ones!

In the outside world, a Xuan-grade sword is something that many sects are fighting hard for.

At the same time, Lu Ran could also feel a faint sword energy flowing throughout the holy mountain, as if the entire mountain was breathing and floating slowly.

No wonder the Jiuli Holy Land chose this place as its base camp. This is simply a paradise for sword practitioners!

Several people entered from the mountain gate.

He was first taken to a side room to rest.

On the way, passing behind the martial arts field, there is a much smaller square.

Around the square, there are six huge sword sculptures inserted into the ground, with one-third of the sword bodies submerged and the rest above the ground.

Those exposed outside are several dozen feet high!
Even if you just get close, you can instantly feel several complex and different sword energies interweaving around you. These sword energies have no lethal power and are completely dispersed.

Lu Ran was surprised. What is this place for?
At this time, Yan Tianxin beside him seemed to see through Lu Ran's doubts at a glance and introduced: "This is a sword monument, which is used to test the talents of disciples."

Lu Ran was a little stunned. Sword monument? Why did it sound a bit like cursing?

He asked curiously, "How to test it?"

Yan Tianxin said: "Enter the small square and communicate with the sword tablets with your divine thoughts. There are six sword tablets in total. As long as you can successfully communicate with one of them and make it react, it will be fine."

Lu Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it that simple? Just communicate with anyone?"

Upon hearing this, not only Yan Tianxin, but even Qin Wuyao and the followers who were responsible for leading the way were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The Liuhe Sword Monument in the Jiuli Holy Land is very famous!

The minimum requirement for the Holy Lords of all generations is to successfully comprehend at least two of them!

For example, the current Holy Lord, the sword wizard Liu Qinghe, who has been revered as the Sword Saint, can comprehend two of them.

The Holy Lords of all generations basically had two of them, but only the first Holy Lord of Jiuli Holy Land successfully comprehended three of them and caused the three to react. After that, no one came again!
“Moreover, being able to comprehend the sword monument not only proves one’s own talent, but every time one comprehends one, one can gain huge benefits from it and improve one’s sword skills,” Yan Tianxin added.

It can be said that he has gained both fame and fortune!
Lu Ran immediately became interested. He was not very interested in showing off just by gaining insights, but if it could improve his sword skills, that would be great!
"Can I try it?" Lu Ran asked curiously.

“No, only the disciples of Jiuli Holy Land are eligible to enter. And Lu Ran, although you have the Hunyuan Sword Body, that is just your physique. As a sword cultivator, the Hunyuan Sword Body has a fast cultivation speed, but the perception comes from the soul and has nothing to do with physique.” Yan Tianxin said to Lu Ran comfortingly.

Lu Ran is not a disciple of the holy land, so he is not qualified to enter the small square between the six sword monuments.

And the Liuhe Sword Monument has stood here for thousands of years.

Apart from the Holy Lords of all generations, very few disciples can comprehend even one!
After listening to this, Lu Ran was not depressed, but his eyes became even more confused.

What a coincidence! Before coming to the Jiuli Holy Land, the reward Lu Ran received after getting drunk was the maximum level of swordsmanship!
I may not be good at other things, but when it comes to comprehension, I’m at the top level!

But unfortunately, only the disciples of Jiuli Holy Land are qualified to enter the small square to meditate.

"Let's go to the side room first, Yaoyao. You will come with me to see the Holy Lord later. Lu Ran, just walk around nearby. You can use my Yama Order to travel everywhere, but don't go too far." Yan Tianxin instructed.

Yan Tianxin went to report to the Holy Lord, and Qin Wuyao, as the Holy Maiden of Yao Chi, naturally had to perform the etiquette as well.

But Yan Tianxin doesn’t plan to take Lu Ran over for the time being, or rather, it’s not the right time yet.

After determining the location of the wing room, Yan Tianxin and Qin Wuyao asked Lu Ran to remember the location of the wing room before going out for a walk, and then they left.

Lu Ran had nothing to do, so he strolled around the neighborhood.

The holy mountain of Wanjianzhong is not as desolate and solemn as it looks halfway up the mountain, and there is no atmosphere of war and iron cavalry.

Instead, there were birds singing and flowers blooming, and there were no magical weapons or sharp swords sticking into the ground around.

With lush trees and flowing water under small bridges, it is hard to imagine that the hilltop of Wanjian Tomb has such a completely different scene.

Lu Ran had never been here before, so he had no destination. Thinking of the Liuhe Sword Monument, he walked over.

This time, Lu Ran didn't just watch from the side. He glanced around and didn't see any guards, so he just walked in.

As soon as he stepped into it, the sword energy became stronger, but the sword energy did not have any murderous intent. It was just pure sword energy wandering around, even a little soft.

Lu Ran turned his head and looked around. Many disciples of the Holy Land were sitting cross-legged in the small square. They were in a state of cultivation and constantly used their spiritual thoughts to communicate with the surrounding sword monuments, in an attempt to make one of them react.

This is the only chance to reach the top in one step in the Jiuli Holy Land!

Even if you are a menial disciple or a fireman in the kitchen, as long as you can communicate with any of the sword monuments to make them react, you can immediately become a cabinet disciple who is focused on training in the Jiuli Holy Land!
Lu Ran looked at the six sword monuments curiously, and when he walked in, he discovered that the sword monuments were not bare.

The sword body is carved with various patterns of different styles, some of which are like purgatory on earth, some like sacred mountains and blessed lands, and so on.

Lu Ran did not sit down, but just stood there, his eyes slightly narrowed, trying to extend his spiritual thoughts to cover the nearest sword monument.

Just barely enough time to breathe.

The scene of hell on earth depicted on the sword monument seemed to come alive, and the flame patterns actually began to rise and wriggle!
