A Blind Swordsman's Sword Coffin-Chapter 442 – The Killing Begins on Fortune Wheel Tower

Boom!

Xuan Lin was buried up to his chest, blood pouring from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. His light golden eyes trembled, and the fear of death washed over him.

What was that?! He hadn’t even read the second word yet.

After a long moment, the pressure lifted. He crawled out of the crater, not daring to look up. He swallowed hard, finally understanding what had happened to Li Guanqi.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Four elderly figures appeared at the summit. They were the strongest cultivators aside from Li Guanqi and Xuan Lin, all at the late Divine Transformation Realm. The moment they arrived, they saw Xuan Lin crawling out of the crater. They turned toward Li Guanqi and bowed.

One white-haired elder raised an eyebrow. Xuan Lin got beaten up again?

Li Guanqi ignored them. Whether they gained anything depended on their own abilities.

Then, Li Guanqi realized the mysterious plaque had disappeared.

Buzz!

A strange aura radiated across the space, and an orange light barrier enclosed everything within four hundred zhang.

The thick barrier shot up into the clouds. The moment Li Guanqi realized what was happening, his sword box opened. He raised his hand, and one sword shot out.

Boom!

The sword light terrified the others, but all it did was create a few ripples on the light barrier.

Li Guanqi’s heart sank, feeling threatened.

The cultivators below were equally shocked. They looked up at the sky. The bright orange barrier had enveloped the entire central peak.

“There’s definitely a great treasure about to appear!”

“Sigh... We can’t even get up there because of that aura. Some of us died, some of us got injured... And we got nothing from this stupid secret realm.”

Many people nodded in agreement.

They had assumed they would gain something valuable because of the powerful energy the secret realm radiated, yet all the truly valuable treasures had fallen into Li Guanqi’s hands.

While the crowd complained, Li Guanqi suddenly looked around with narrowed eyes.

Outside the barrier, shining pillars of light shot into the air one after another. The thick spirit qi began to churn, flowing toward the light pillars.

The elders drew long knives from their waists.

Whoosh!

A blade of knife qi slashed the barrier. Nothing happened.

“Hmph! Secret treasures are appearing outside! This barrier has trapped us!”

The white-haired elder stared past the barrier, a mix of emotions flickering in his eyes. Every light pillar marked the birthplace of a precious treasure or rare immortal plant. They all regretted ascending the central peak.

The cultivators below, still outside the barrier, stood stunned.

“Hahahaha! The strongest cultivators are all trapped on the summit!”

“Indeed! I knew there’d be more than those three treasures!”

“Everyone, I’ll excuse myself first.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Over two hundred Divine Transformation Realm cultivators scattered. Though there were many treasures, they were still limited. A massive battle was unavoidable.

Li Guanqi withdrew his gaze. He looked up at the door—its plaque now gone—and stepped forward.

Buzz!

The Red Lotus Sword instantly completed the Soul Dissolution process, and his aura peaked.

Peng Luo’s voice rang in his ear. “Master, I think... it’s best not to enter the tower.”

Li Guanqi halted his footsteps. “I’m already here. I have to take a look, no matter what.”

Peng Luo didn’t try to persuade him. “If necessary... you can cut off my arm and swallow it.”

Li Guanqi smirked with amusement. “For what?”

Peng Luo rolled his eyes. “It’ll save your life.”

Li Guanqi smirked again, confident. “I won’t need your arm before I reach the mid Illusory Refinement Realm.”

Vital force surged through his body. He was slowly assimilating the power contained within the Heavenly Lightning Orb.

A nascent form of his second dantian was taking shape. Soon, the second dantian in his nascent soul would be complete. It was made from the Heavenly Lightning Orb, so the orb was his second dantian.

Although Li Guanqi looked a little weak on the outside, only he knew just how many trump cards he had up his sleeve. He pressed his right hand on the stone door. Strength surged through him, and he gave the door a hard push.

Creak!

The sound echoed across the quiet peak, as if an ancient mechanism dormant for a thousand years was finally stirring to life.

A strange chill spread in all directions. Xuan Lin watched wistfully. Firelight flickered beneath his feet, and he appeared beside Li Guanqi at the door.

There were six doors in total on the Fortune Wheel Tower, which coincidentally matched the number of people present.

Li Guanqi looked at the warping space before him, took a deep breath, and stepped through.

Buzz! Whoosh!

He was sucked inside.

Xuan Lin did the same, pressing one hand against the stone door.

Creak...

Only a pinky-wide crack opened. Xuan Lin’s face reddened. He awkwardly switched to both hands.

Creak...

The opening widened to the breadth of his shoulders, and then he was pulled in.

The four remaining cultivators exchanged glances, seeing each other’s eyes gleam. The tower’s treasures couldn’t possibly be worse than the ones outside. If they were, why would they have been trapped?

Since there was nothing else to do, they pushed the remaining doors open.

Meanwhile, a deadly battle raged outside the barrier.

“Attack! The Ocean Spirit Fungus is mine!”

“Fuck off! You don’t deserve it!”

One cultivator was laughing maniacally, clutching a spirit herb. “Hahahaha! The Profound Viburnum Flower! It’s the Profound Viburnum—”

Crack! Crack! Crack! Pfft! 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Before he finished speaking, his vital force shield shattered, and then his ancient jade pendant also broke. A blood-covered sword pierced through his chest.

His hand was sliced off, still clutching the flower. The attacker, a shadowy figure, disappeared.

This scene played out everywhere as spirit treasures, herbs, and immortal fruits appeared one after another. The thick scent of blood filled the air. No one noticed that the ground was absorbing the dead cultivators’ blood.

The true massacre had only just begun.

Meanwhile, Li Guanqi finally arrived at the first level of the Fortune Wheel Tower.

Buzz!
