Severin was taken aback by the sight. As a level seven supreme saint, his divine senses extended over a hundred miles, yet the large tomb of broken swords at the valley's bottom had escaped his notice during his flight to the seventh mountain.
As he retracted his vision, Severin mused to himself, 'The Sword Tomb is exactly as I expected it to be.'
"Come with me. I'll bring you there!" Yaacob interrupted Severin's thoughts. He then rose into the air and dived straight down without a second thought.
Severin followed suit. As the wind roaring in his ears, Severin sensed an increased intensity of swordwill as they descended. After a while, the two landed at the bottom of the mountain, revealing the vast expanse of the Sword Tomb.
The Sword Tomb was sprawled dozens of miles across and housed countless buried broken swords. Each sword emanated a faint yet chaotic swordwill which were interwoven into a barrier that seemed to cause one's divine senses to dull. Despite Severin's level seven supreme saint attainment, his spiritual awareness was restricted within a ten-mile range there.
Severin then muttered to himself, "There are probably tens of thousands of swordwills here. Though these are mere remnants of broken swords, it is still an excellent place to practice swordsmanship."
Though the remnants of swordwill produced a pervasive malevolence that was so dangerous that even royal saints could die from it, Severin noticed many of the Seventh Mountain's disciples present around the tomb. Some sat cross-legged and employed their skills to resist the malevolent energy, while others focused their minds on comprehending the lingering swordwill and tempering their bodies.
