Sword One paused at the words.

Indeed, everyone had been staring at the stele for several days.

Yet nothing had been discovered.

If the cultivation method of the sword technique was really on the stele,

it would have been discovered long ago.

"But this stele is so hard, it's almost impossible to damage…" Cang Lang said, frowning.

Previously, she had secretly tried carving with the Fighting Sword.

Not even a trace could be left.

The Fighting Sword is said to be comparable to an Ancient Weapon.

Claimed to be indestructible.

Yet it could not leave a scratch on the stele.

Trying to damage the stele.

Is probably not much easier than directly destroying the Dragon Breaking Stone.

"So, we should try it. Perhaps, Senior Dugu left the sword technique, requiring a certain level of strength to cultivate. Thus, he deliberately placed the cultivation method within the stele. Only by shattering the stele might we obtain the cultivation method," Su Chen said calmly.

This was the conclusion he reached after several hours of contemplation and thought.

After all, the more powerful the cultivation technique, the higher the strength required to cultivate it.

For example, the Rising Dragon Fist he cultivated.

At least Initial Rank of the Superman Realm is required to have a chance to cultivate it.

And when the cultivation reaches the level of Long Lan, the Rising Dragon Fist will even evolve into Kanglong Fist.

Each punch unleashes nine times the power.

It's worth noting that after Su Chen uses the Burning Secret Technique, the power of Rising Dragon Fist only reaches five times the original.

And only after using Explosion can the power be increased to twenty-five times.

Moreover, Rising Dragon Fist is at most considered an upper-grade Martial Skill.

Compared to the swordsmanship left by Dugu Qiubai, it is certainly much inferior.

Therefore, Dugu Qiubai left the lowest threshold for cultivation.

That is, you must have the strength to shatter the stele.

Of course, this is only Su Chen's speculation.

Whether it's true or not.

Can only be known by trying.

Anyway, as Su Chen said.

If his guess is wrong.

And the stele is damaged.

There are still three steles left.

It won't cause all of Dugu Qiubai's swordsmanship to disappear.

After deliberation, it was finally decided to give it a try.

Moreover, everyone gets a chance.

After all, in case the stele does not choose inheritors based on strength.

But rather on fate.

Thus, every Guardian gets a chance to try.

And, the Ancient Divine Weapons left in the Sword Tomb can be utilized.

Although most of these Ancient Divine Weapons are damaged, even in such a state and after long years,

they are still incomparable to ordinary blades.

Then came the attempts one by one.

The stele was truly indestructible.

No weapon could leave a mark on it.

Even some slightly inferior Ancient Weapons were directly shattered by the stele.

After the Guardians with weaker strength finished their attempts, the stronger ones tried.

Then it was Sword One's turn, then Cang Lang.

When Cang Lang attacked the stele with all her might using the Fighting Sword,

the stele suddenly emitted a brilliant radiance.

"It worked!"

This was the first time the stele showed any change.

Seeing this, everyone was filled with ecstatic joy.

Perhaps Su Chen's speculation was correct.

To cultivate the swordsmanship on the stele,

one's cultivation must reach a certain level.

"Cang Lang, try attacking again!" Sword One also showed a look of joyous surprise.

If Cang Lang learned Dugu Qiubai's swordsmanship, that would naturally be the best outcome.

Cang Lang nodded, summoned the Fighting Sword again.

Boom!

The stele radiated light again.

However, after the light, there was no more response.

It seems the attack power wasn't strong enough.

Cang Lang rested for a few minutes, then directly used the Sword Demon Style.

Although with her current body, using the Sword Demon Style would undoubtedly cause great harm to her body,

if she didn't use it,

the power wouldn't be enough.

The Fighting Sword shrank from one zhang,

and the glow changed from blazing white to black.

The power increased several times.

"Break!"

Cang Lang gathered all her Inner Strength into her hands and then raised the Fighting Sword high, slashing it towards the stele.

Boom!

The stele emitted an even more dazzling radiance, even trembled a bit.

However, a few seconds later, the radiance on the stele disappeared.

Everything returned to calm.

The Fighting Sword in Cang Lang's hands scattered, and she swayed a bit.

That strike had consumed too much of her energy.

Moreover, the powerful counter-shock force aggravated her internal injuries even more.

Cang Lang's eyes showed a hint of desolation.

It seemed her strongest attack did not meet the stele's minimum requirement.

"Let me try!"

Ban Cun stepped in front of the stele.

And began to gather energy.

When the momentum reached its peak, Ban Cun's body suddenly split into eight!

Transformed into eight illusions.

The eight illusions quickly merged back into one.

Then suddenly, a fierce palm struck the stele.

Su Chen recognized this move.

It was an extremely terrifying martial skill.

All eight illusions maintained the attack power of the main body.

The merger of all eight meant eightfold attack.

Boom!

A resounding explosion echoed.

The stele emitted a glaze similar to when Cang Lang had slashed at it.

This meant Ban Cun's full-force strike was not much weaker than Cang Lang's.

Ban Cun shook his head helplessly.

It seemed he could not meet the stele's minimum requirement either.

Previously, everyone feared damaging the stele.

Now, they greatly hoped someone might break it.

Only Su Chen was left.

After all, Su Chen was the only one who had managed to blow away a Divine Beast Qilin.

In other words,

Su Chen's attack could at least match the power of Long Lan's Ares' Hand coupled with the Demon King's Strike.

If he could not break the stele,

no one present might be able to shatter it.

Su Chen also stood before the stele.

He took a deep breath.

He knew the responsibility on his shoulders was significant.

The strongest attack he could currently use was the Rising Dragon Fist in its explosive state.

Twenty-five times the Rising Dragon Fist.

Of course, he could unleash even greater Destruction.

Boosting the Rising Dragon Fist's power to 125 times.

But he would not attempt it lightly.

Because using 125 times the Rising Dragon Fist,

would cause his cultivation to regress by one rank.

Let alone whether he could shatter the stele,

if his guess was wrong, wouldn't it mean losing a rank for nothing?

Su Chen adjusted his breath for a few seconds, then directly activated the Explosive Secret Technique.

"Rising Dragon Fist!"

A loud dragon's roar resounded.

A golden furious dragon fiercely struck the stele.

The stele burst into an extremely brilliant radiance.

The light persisted for a significant time.

It lasted for a full minute.

Everyone held their breath.

Watching the changes on the stele.

This was their last hope.
