"Such a strong sword intent!" The man with a crew cut exclaimed.

It was as if each character was like a sharp sword; the closer you got, the more it felt like your body was about to be pierced through.

Su Chen nodded.

He felt it too.

There were not many things inside this Sword Tomb.

If there were any place where Dugu Baitian's swordsmanship was likely to exist, it would undoubtedly be these four steles.

The two were indeed exceedingly talented individuals.

Both were attracted by that immensely powerful sword intent.

It seemed as though the characters on the stele had transformed into a person wielding a sword, demonstrating swordsmanship.

Upon seeing this scene, Cang Lang's eyes lit up slightly.

Su Chen and the man with a crew cut were both exceptionally talented individuals.

It was natural for them to see more than ordinary people could.

Time passed bit by bit.

Su Chen and the man with a crew cut stood motionless in front of the stele for over two hours.

"What are they doing?"

"Could it be that they have realized the true meaning of swordsmanship?"

"..."

The Guardians whispered among themselves.

They had been comprehending in front of the stele for many days.

Yet, they had understood nothing.

At first, that intense sword intent had drawn them in too.

But as time went by, they had become restless.

Just like when people first start learning English.

Initially, there is a lot of enthusiasm.

After studying for a while, they find that it's all just dull words.

And they can't seem to learn them no matter what.

They then become irritable.

"Do not disturb them," Cang Lang slightly frowned, signaling everyone to be quiet.

Cang Lang was not just a legend.

Now, she was the strongest presence among the clan of Guardians.

She naturally had authority.

The Guardians quieted down.

Sword One's expression was rather complicated.

He hoped that either Su Chen or the man with a crew cut could comprehend the swordsmanship, so everyone could leave.

Yet, he also did not wish for Dugu Baitian's swordsmanship to fall into outsiders' hands.

However, there was no other way now.

The best ending would be if either Cang Lang could comprehend the swordsmanship or he could comprehend it.

But as things looked now.

That possibility was very low.

Three hours later, the man with a crew cut stopped his comprehension.

However, Su Chen continued to comprehend.

"How was it?" Cang Lang looked at the man with a crew cut.

The man with a crew cut shook his head and said, "I've realized some things, but it's only improved my own existing Sword Dao, swordsmanship, and so on, but I have no clue about the Sword God's predecessor's swordsmanship."

Upon hearing the man with a crew cut's words.

Cang Lang was a little disappointed.

It seemed that the man with a crew cut's realization had also failed.

However, being able to comprehend sword intent from simply an inscription and enhance one's own Sword Dao.

Was already quite commendable.

Most importantly, this was just a single word.

There was no mental method for cultivation, and no route for performing the technique.

Comprehending some essence of the Sword Dao was possible.

But to cultivate Dugu Baitian's swordsmanship was as hard as ascending to heaven.

Cang Lang sighed, her gaze falling on Su Chen.

Su Chen was still in the midst of comprehension.

Now, all hopes were pinned on Su Chen.

The longer Su Chen comprehended.

The greater the chances of success.

The longer the comprehension time, the stronger the talent.

Of course, it could not be said that Su Chen's talent was much stronger than that of the man with a crew cut or Cang Lang.

Perhaps, Su Chen just had a unique insight in the Sword Dao.

About an hour after the man with a crew cut finished his comprehension.

Su Chen also concluded his comprehension.

These hours of comprehension had left him with many insights.

Although Su Chen had never practiced swordsmanship.

In the aspect of swordsmanship, he unexpectedly had a very special insight.

He was immersed in the Sword Dao inscribed on the stone.

Therefore, the comprehension time was relatively long.

"How was it?" Cang Lang and the man with a crew cut both approached Su Chen.

The man with a crew cut also knew.

Whether Su Chen could comprehend the stele's secret concerned everyone's life and death.

If Su Chen couldn't comprehend it either.

Then it meant that everyone might be trapped here to death.

Of course, they had another option.

That was letting Long Lan comprehend the swordsmanship.

But, that was the result they least wanted to see.

Long Lan was Asura's person.

Even if Long Lan did comprehend the swordsmanship.

And opened the Stone Gate.

Then they would have more than just the Giant to face.

Also Long Lan who had learned the Invincible Sword Technique.

By that time, it would still be a dead end.

Therefore, Su Chen's answer was crucial.

However, it was destined that Su Chen would disappoint everyone.

"I'm sorry, I cannot understand it, the inscribed characters on the stele, although they convey a rich sword intent, it is only sword intent; without a cultivation method, it is utterly impossible to learn the swordsmanship on it," Su Chen sighed and said.

That is to say.

This word could only slightly elevate one's original swordsmanship cultivation level.

But since there's no cultivation method.

It's impossible to learn the swordsmanship it inherently possesses.

No matter how exceptional Su Chen's talent is.

No matter how unique Su Chen's insight into the Sword Dao is.

There is no way.

This was, after all, creating something from nothing.

"Are we really going to be trapped here…" Cang Lang's beautiful eyes turned somewhat dim.

"However…" Su Chen suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing Su Chen's words.

A hint of hope appeared in Cang Lang's beautiful eyes.

She looked at Su Chen.

Her expression was incredibly anxious.

She feared that the words Su Chen would say were still just despair.

Su Chen paused and said, "Any Martial Skill, has cultivation mnemonics, and a path to follow; Since Senior Dugu Qiubai said he left what he learned throughout his life, then he must have left behind the cultivation mnemonics, surely, it is on this stele, it's just that we have not found a way to unlock it."

Cang Lang nodded.

This was in line with her thoughts.

However, she had closely observed the stele up close.

This stele was ancient and worn, crafted from an unknown material.

It looked like stone.

But in reality, it was very hard.

Even a Fighting Sword could not leave a scratch on the stele.

Yet, Dugu Qiubai had inscribed characters on it.

This showed that Dugu Qiubai's accomplishments in the Sword Dao had indeed reached a very terrifying level.

On every stele, besides the characters inscribed by Dugu Qiubai.

There were no other clues left behind.

So, even if Cang Lang knew that the swordsmanship was hidden on the stele.

She had no other means.

"Since there is nothing on the surface, why not break it to see," Su Chen proposed his theory.

"No, if your conjecture is wrong, wouldn't it destroy the ancestor's swordsmanship!" Upon hearing this, Sword One immediately refused.

These four steles were left by Dugu Qiubai.

They hid his lifetime's Invincible Sword Technique.

If they were destroyed, the loss would be significant.

"Sword One Clan Leader, even if my conjecture is wrong and the stele is damaged, there are four steles here in total, damaging one leaves three, besides, do you think you have any other options?" Su Chen squinted at Sword One.
