Let Me Game in Peace

a glance, it was a series of undulating hills.
However, upon closer inspection, one would realize that they weren’t hills at all.
Instead, they were graves of all sizes.

Some graves were relatively small, like small mounds.
Some of them were hundreds of feet tall, like continuous hills.

However, it was different from ancient human graves.
There were no tombstones in front of the graves.
At the highest point of each grave was a sword.

The swords on every grave were different.
There were short swords, long swords, heavy swords, metal swords, jade swords, swords carved from bones, and porcelain swords made of mud.

There were all sorts of swords that dazzled one’s eyes.
Every sword was embedded into a grave, a tombstone in some uncommon fashion.

Although few outsiders had the chance to enter the Ancient Sword Tomb other than Xia family members, it was a famous dimensional zone.

Xia Jiuhuang’s first Mythical Companion Beast came from the Ancient Sword Tomb.

Back then, there were only a handful of Mythical pets in the hands of humans.
Xia Jiuhuang dominated the world with his sword and fought for the Federation citizens.

The six heroes were like gods to humans.

Of course, no one knew of the existence of Mythical Companion Beasts back then.
They only knew that Xia Jiuhuang’s sword was very powerful, but they didn’t know that it was a Mythical Companion Beast.

Later on, the Xia family became famous for using swords.
Most sword-type Companion Beasts came from the Ancient Sword Tomb.

Some people even suspected that Primordial Sword Immortal came from the Ancient Sword Tomb, but no one from the Xia family had admitted to it.

There was something else that left Zhou Wen puzzled.
For some reason, he hadn’t seen Xia Jiuhuang use a Mythical Companion Beast when he fought him.

As he walked in the Ancient Sword Tomb, Zhou Wen looked around.
He had only heard An Sheng mention that unless one reached out to pluck a sword in the Ancient Sword Tomb, they would remain dead objects.
The swords didn’t emit any aura or power, making it impossible to gauge their levels.

Only by pulling them out could one know their true level and strength.

Drawing a sword was also a skill.
This was because one didn’t know the stats, abilities, and level of a sword.
If one was lacking in strength, pulling out a high-level sword might very well result in death.

However, if one was strong, killing a low-level dimensional creature as a result of their draw would be useless.

Zhou Wen didn’t know much about swords, nor did he plan on choosing one.
He reached out and grabbed the vine sword stuck in the tiny grave beside him, hoping to pull it out.

This was because the sword grave had a strange force field that protected the swords embedded in the grave.
If he wanted to destroy the swords here, he had to pull them out first.

However, after Zhou Wen exerted his strength twice, the vine sword seemed to have taken root and wasn’t pulled out by Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen couldn’t help but carefully size up the vine sword.
He saw that it looked like it was carved from a grayish-black ancient vine.
The blade was slightly curved, and it didn’t look sharp.
It had a very odd shape.

Could it be that I encountered a big guy for my first draw? Zhou Wen spread his legs apart and gripped the hilt with both hands.
Then, he gathered all his strength and pulled it upwards.

However, the vine sword remained motionless as though it had become one with the small grave.

Zhou Wen was alarmed.
His strength was already considered top-notch in the Epic stage, but even he couldn’t pull it out.
This meant that the vine sword was definitely extraordinary.
It might even be a Mythical dimensional creature.

Zhou Wen summoned Tyrant Behemoth and got it to pull out the vine sword.
