Chapter 970 Thunder God Gold
After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Qian still saw the dense starlight in front of his eyes, and nothing else. He didn't know how deep the well was. He fell rapidly for a quarter of an hour and had no idea how much distance he had covered.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that this rich starlight was not without effect. The existence of the starlight made his falling speed seem slow, but in fact it was extremely fast, even falling at a speed comparable to the sword light.

After falling for a quarter of an hour at such an alarming speed, Zhang Qian was shocked by the depth of the well.

Nearly a quarter of an hour later, there was finally a change below. The dense starlight suddenly became sparse, but it was because the surrounding space expanded many times, causing the originally condensed starlight to become scattered.

After falling for nearly two quarters of an hour at such a terrifying speed, Zhang Qian estimated that his current location was deeper than the underground abyss, and he had even reached the depths of the earth in the underground abyss.

After a while, the surrounding stars became sparse and the surrounding space became extremely empty, no longer resembling a well.

"Since you are so loyal, are you willing to sacrifice yourself for this ancestor?"

At this moment, the distant voice of the Sword-Devouring Ancestor sounded again, and the direction from which the voice came was not far below.

Zhang Qian hurriedly hid his figure and looked from a distance. He suddenly saw the figure of the Mad Taoist. The Mad Taoist still looked like a demon, but in front of him there was a crystal clear barrier with endless rules of Taoism flowing through it.

The barrier is faintly transparent, and through it, you can see the starry sky outside with billions of twinkling stars. The boundless starry sky is silent, and when you look at it, you will feel that the universe is infinite, the fullness and emptiness are finite, and you yourself are as small as a mosquito larva!

"World Barrier!"

Zhang Qian's pupils shrank, and he immediately recognized that this barrier that separated the starry sky was the world barrier of the Xihuang world. It was also the barrier that protected this world and prevented even the real body of the Golden Immortal of Daluo from descending. It was also an obstacle for the cultivators of this world to transcend.

In front of this barrier that had caused countless monks to sigh throughout the ages, a giant black rat man stood up, with his front paws resting on the barrier, his gleaming rat eyes fixed on the crazy Taoist priest.

The Mad Taoist's mind raced, with countless thoughts flashing through his mind. The Sword-Devouring Ancestor in front of him didn't look injured at all. He had thought that under Tian Jianzi's brilliant sword, even if the Sword-Devouring Ancestor could escape with his life, he should have been seriously injured. Unexpectedly, this demon didn't show any signs of injury, and the pressure he exuded was countless times stronger than before!
Having devoured the talents of most of the peerless sword cultivators of the Tianjian Sect, as well as the countless sword cultivators from the Thirty-six States who volunteered to fight him to the death, the Sword-Devouring Ancestor's sword dao realm has already achieved the true realm of establishing the dao with one sword!
This level of swordsmanship has never been achieved in the Xihuang World, and there may never be anyone who can reach it in the future. Even in the heavens and myriad worlds, in this vast world where many demons and monsters exist, there are not many sword cultivators who can reach the level of establishing the Dao with one sword.

Facing the Sword-Devouring Ancestor who was intact and had made great progress in swordsmanship, the Crazy Taoist no longer had the excitement he had before when he found the trace of the Sword-Devouring Ancestor. He was only left with awe. The Sword-Devouring Ancestor, who was at the level of Half a Step to Establishing the Dao with One Sword, had almost beaten the Crazy Taoist to death twice, let alone the Sword-Devouring Ancestor who had now devoured so many peerless sword cultivation talents and whose swordsmanship had further advanced!

Zhang Qian's original excitement also disappeared without a trace, and at the same time, he was glad that he did not expose his identity rashly. Otherwise, the Sword-Devouring Ancestor, who was at the level of One Sword to Establish the Dao, would have no rival in this world, and perhaps only the Sky Fox Goddess, who was at the level of Daluo True Immortal, could fight against him, but the Sword-Devouring Ancestor himself was a subordinate of the Sky Fox Goddess.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian immediately became suspicious of the purpose of the Sword Devouring Ancestor appearing near the world barrier. What was the Sword Devouring Ancestor, who was unharmed and had made great progress, doing hiding here? What did it have to do with the Sky Fox Goddess?
Before he could think about it, the Mad Taoist replied with an extremely loyal look under the terrifying gaze of the Sword Devouring Ancestor: "My life was saved by you, Old Ancestor. I will go through fire and water and obey your orders!" The rat-like Sword Devouring Ancestor's beard trembled a few times: "Very good, do you see this altar? Stand on the altar as I command, and don't worry about the rest!"

The crazy Taoist agreed without any hesitation, but Zhang Qian behind him knew that the crazy Taoist was about to run away.

The Sword-Eating Ancestor is now truly invincible. No matter who faces his sword and his dominant sword art, the end result is that they will be reduced to ashes. The Crazy Taoist is not the Sky Fox Goddess, who has the magical Nine Yuan Secret Art. The Crazy Taoist thinks that he cannot even block a single sword from the Sword-Eating Ancestor now.

"This damn rat is so sinister. He is clearly fine, but he lets everyone in the world think he is dead. How did he block Tian Jianzi's sword in the first place?"

The Crazy Taoist was really confused as to how the Sword-Devouring Ancestor had managed to dodge Tian Jianzi's brilliant sword that could burn everything without any damage.

The Sword-Eating Old Patriarch didn't know that the demon in front of him was transformed by the Mad Taoist Priest. The Sword-Eating Old Patriarch, who only practiced swordsmanship, didn't have magical powers like the Destroying Void Seal that could see through illusions.

When the mad Taoist stood on the huge altar near the barrier, he immediately felt something was not good. The altar looked like it was made of huge stones, but it was actually cast with the rare Lei Ze divine gold. The surface of the Lei Ze divine gold looked no different from ordinary stones, and it would burst into its original color only when it encountered thunder. Such a large altar consumed a terrifying amount of Lei Ze divine gold. This kind of divine gold was a very rare thing no matter what era it was, and it was amazing to find a fist-sized piece. But now there was an altar here that was made entirely of Lei Ze divine gold.

That would be fine, but what frightened the crazy Taoist the most was that this altar was actually closely connected to the world barrier next to it. The endless rules in the world barrier were connected to the altar, and no one knew what their function was.

Seeing the Mad Taoist standing on the altar, the Sword Devouring Ancestor nodded slowly and suddenly shouted: "No matter what happens later, you must not leave the altar, otherwise you will ruin this ancestor's plan and make you die without a burial place!"

The demon's tone was extremely serious, and a majestic sword intent of domination emerged, faintly covering the mad Taoist priest, blocking his front, back, left and right with sword intent, as if he was afraid that the mad Taoist priest would run away.

The Crazy Taoist secretly groaned, nodded in agreement, and began to think quickly about how to escape. Originally, this was an opportunity to take advantage of the dying moment of the Sword-Devouring Ancestor to obtain the Da Xia Li Ding, but now it has become a terrible trap, and the Crazy Taoist still jumped into this trap on his own initiative. Now he has no chance to leave.

"Don't worry, when this ancestor succeeds, your contribution will not be forgotten. I will personally accept you as my disciple and teach you the Dominant Sword Art!"

When the crazy Taoist heard this, he almost yelled, "Who wants to learn the Domination Sword Dao?" The Sword Devouring Ancestor was the master of the Domination Sword Dao. Any sword cultivator who practiced the Domination Sword Dao was helping the Sword Devouring Ancestor comprehend the Sword Dao. As long as they stepped into the door of the Domination Sword Dao, unless the Sword Devouring Ancestor suddenly died, the subsequent sword cultivators would always be his vassals.
