Chapter 2288  Inside the Ancestor Tombs, Human Elders, Violet Coffin

"I see…"

Chu Kuangren was hit with a sudden realization when he saw the crystal sword.

His guesses were right.

The mural in the cave back at Jiufang Tribe had recorded the Human Ancestor wielding the crystal sword, but when the Nine Humanity Treasures were created, the sword's image was gone.

He made a guess that it was the sword that created the Nine Humanity Treasures.

He was right. The Human Ancestor broke the sword into nine pieces and infused the parts into the Nine Humanity Treasures.

As for why, there was no answer to it yet. However, anyone who gathered all nine of the Humanity Treasures could reforge the broken sword.

"The fragments of the sword were hidden in the Nine Humanity Treasures, and no one had noticed it for countless eras. The Human Ancestor was indeed wise. "If not for my Thousand Weapon Heart that allowed me to control all Nine Humanity Treasures, I wouldn't be able to make them resonate with each other. Even if I have all of them, I might not notice the sword's fragments," Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle. "If not for my Thousand Weapon Heart that allowed me to control all Nine Humanity Treasures, I wouldn't be able to make them resonate with each other. Even if I have all of them, I might not notice the sword's fragments," Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle. He looked eagerly at the crystal sword, the first sword in all of the Infiniverse that started the concept of swordsmanship.

That point alone was enough to prove how outstanding the crystal sword was, and its level must be even higher than the Ultimate level.

Its value was on par with the Eternal-tier prize, the Creation Pool.

He reached out to wield the crystal sword. When he touched it, the sword buzzed but did not reject him. Instead, it transformed into a streak of light and entered his body. The sword ray and sword intent then disappeared, but Chu Kuangren could feel its amazing power inside him.

Unfortunately, he could not use the power yet.

"I guess this alone has made the trip to the Human Ancestral Land well worth it."

He was satisfied with the sword. The Buddhist Ultimate-level cultivation technique he got previously was nothing compared to the crystal sword.

"Next would be the Ancestor Tombs," he muttered.

He was happy with the sword, but he could use more. No one would reject an abundance of treasures and Opportunities of Fortune.

He wanted the Human Ancestor's inheritance as well.

"Everyone, let's go inside."

Chu Kuangren did not bother to explain the sword, and neither did Shang Honghua and the others ask. They simply followed him into the Ancestor Tombs.

Inside the Ancestor Tombs, many coffins floated in the air.

Each coffin represented a human elder. The coffins also had countless runes carved into them, telling the story of the human elder. "Chang Zi, the First of the Ancient Humans, the One who preached Dao. Before humans gained intellect, culture and words had no medium. In order for the humans to develop, Chang Zi studied for many years and finally created 'words', allowing civilization to develop…"

"Shi Tian, the Buddhist Progenitor. By perceiving the origin of Buddhism through natural phenomena and creating the Buddhist world, he preached and led people to kindness…"

"Tian Zhenzi, an observer of nature, the stars, the moon, and the sun. After ten thousand years, he created the Formation Dao, allowing the humans to fight the strong…"

"Bao Pu, tasted all the herbs in existence and created the Pill Dao…" "Chang Tianfeng. The humans were once weak and a target for the foreign tribes. During the Battle of Black Sea, the foreign tribes led an army of millions to siege the human race's city. Chang Tianfeng stood against the army alone, armed only with his spear, and covered his people while they retreated."

"Master Daoist Guyue…"

"Yang Ye…"

Everyone saw the stories carved on the coffins and could not help but show respect to the human elders.

They were the ones who created, invested, fought, and resisted in the past so that the humans could grow and ultimately become the main lead of the Infiniverse.

Humans were weak, but they were strong.

"Lil Ai, record all the stories carved on the coffins. These can be passed down as histories and for us to know more about our ancestors," Chu Kuangren said.

"I'm recording them as we speak," Lil Ai said.

She would never miss the opportunity to study the ancient human elders.

"Sect Leader, look there!"

Nuwa pointed at a certain spot.

A huge coffin floated in the void. It was violet compared to other coffins and exuded a faint Hongmeng spiritual energy. It had no runes but paintings drawn on it.

There were mountains, rivers, and land with animals bowing and worshiping; there were also stars, moon, and sun in the sky.

"The humans honor the color violet, and it carries the densest Hongmeng spiritual qi. The paintings on the coffin are signs that it's different from the others. Sect Leader, that might be the coffin of the Human Ancestor," Nuwa said.

Chu Kuangren narrowed his eyes. He was skeptical.

The Human Ancestor's coffin?

The Human Ancestor was dead?

Nevertheless, he led them over to the violet coffin.

The violet coffin was already surrounded by the other cultivators — human and foreign tribes together.

Kong Chunyuan, Tianshen Changyu, Chi Ying, and the others were there as well.

"This could be the Human Ancestor's coffin. The blood must be in there! If we can get the Human Ancestor's blood, our plan will progress greatly!" Kong Chunyuan stared at the coffin eagerly.

The foreign tribes came prepared. He, too, had a secret treasure of the Spatial Tribe.

Once he got his hand on the Human Ancestor's blood, he would use the secret treasure to escape the Human Ancestral Land in an instant. Not even a Monarch could stop him.

"Open the coffin!"

Kong Chunyuan attacked with a palm strike, but the restriction seals around it blocked the attack.

"Restriction seals. This is tricky."

Chi Ying, Tianshen Changyu, and the others attacked as well.

However, their powerful attacks did not move the coffin, not even one bit. "Don't tell me you need the Nine Humanity Treasures to open this."

Tianshen Changyu frowned. Since the Nine Humanity Treasures were needed to open the tomb, getting the Human Ancestor's inheritance might require the same step.

They found themselves in an awkward situation.

Chu Kuangren had taken all the Nine Humanity Treasures.

Must they really fight him to take the treasures back?

Aside from whether they were his match, it would take them a lot of time, and things would only snowball out of control.

While Kong Chunyuan was in a dilemma, Dugu Bupo and the others arrived.

Kong Chunyuan's eyes lit up when the others arrived. "Everyone, this coffin is protected by restriction seals. Let's work together to open it."

"Hmph!" Dugu Bupo grunted and ignored him.

He threw a slash at the coffin instead. As Sword Twenty-three hit the restriction seals, the sword qi could not even land a scratch on them.

After that, Dao Lingtian, Lu Wuheng, and the others attacked, but none of them were able to damage the restriction seals.

They found themselves in a difficult position.

"Everyone, let's work together," Kong Chunyuan said with a smile.

After a quick thought, Dugu Bupo and the others agreed once more.

Since they had worked together to open the tomb, they might as well work together again.

"Let's do this."

Kong Chunyuan channeled the Spatial Great Dao energy in him, and a silvery-white torrential energy stream appeared in the void. It attacked with an indomitable force, crushing even the void.

Chi Ying roared and unleashed his dragon breath.

Bathed in Celestial Divine Light, Tianshen Changyu hurled a ray of divine light at the coffin. His power far surpassed the common Grand Dao Supreme Honorable.

The other human Monarch Seeds attacked as well.

With Dugu Bupo's destructive sword qi and Lu Wuheng's Taiji symbol containing the creation energy of Yin and Yang, they combined into a single energy stream.

At the same time, Dao Lingtian attacked with a violet palm energy.
