In the moonlight, the man appeared calm, but his eyes were vicious. It had to be Prince Auten. He was furious. He initially believed he could use Wudang Seven Swords to capture Darryl. Then he would have the chance to engulf Darryl's divine power.
Nonetheless, Darryl easily solved all of Wudang Seven Swords' secret techniques. No one could stay calm when their plan failed.
Wudang Seven Swords had previously fought Archfiend Antigonus before facing Darryl. They had reached the point where their internal energy had been depleted, and they were weak. It was pointless to keep them alive if they could not even capture Darryl.
Prince Auten had planned it. Later, he planned to look for an opportunity to incorporate Wudang Seven Swords' cultivation base and internal energy into his body. Even though Wudang Seven Swords had failed to defeat Darryl, they had been alive for over 200 years. They had an abundance of internal energy. If Prince Auten absorbed all of their internal energy, he might be able to resculpt his fairy soul.
Prince Auten soon arrived at the secret chamber's entrance. It was actually a mountain cave. When Wudang Seven Swords required seclusion to cultivate, the sect dug a cave in the mountain behind the sect. It was designated a forbidden zone, and no one was permitted to enter.
There was supposed to be a disciple who would stand guard at the entrance. After what happened that day, the disciple guarding that area went down to help protect another location.
When Prince Auten noticed no disciple at the entrance, he smiled evilly. He walked in without incident. The tunnel leading to the secret chamber was quite long. On both sides of the tunnel, there were oil lamps. The tunnel became more mysterious as it went deeper inside.
After a few minutes of walking, Prince Auten arrived at the secret chamber. It was roughly half the size of a soccer field. The secret chamber's floor plan was shaped like eight trigrams. Candles on the corners of each wall lit up the entire chamber.
A massive Icy Jade Stone stood in the center of the secret chamber. Every cultivator treasured it because it could calm a person's mind and prevent a psychotic break.
Ravo was sitting in the center of the Icy Jade Stone. He was recovering from his injury. The rest of the Wudang Seven Swords were seated around him, their hands on Ravo's body. They were sending their internal energy to his body to aid in his recovery.
Prince Auten smiled and walked straight into the secret chamber. He would never have done that if it had happened a half-day earlier. He had not yet resculpted his fairy soul, so his power was limited to defeating Wudang Seven Swords.
Since the Wudang Seven Swords had suffered from injuries and were at the critical point of healing, they could not be distracted by anything. Thus, Prince Auten was not scared of them.
As they heard footsteps in the secret chamber, Wudang Seven Swords became alarmed. They looked up and saw Prince Auten.
