The Legendary Man Chapter 358

Heaven Sword

The arrows rained down relentlessly from the top without giving Jonathan a chance to dodge.

If Jonathan failed to escape, he would undoubtedly be pierced by those arrows.

However, the moment those arrows fell from above, Jonathan moved away like a flash of lightning. He instantly climbed up the ancient tree.

Soon after, he saw the storm of arrows madly shooting at the huge statue.

The sound of arrows hitting the statue reverberated in the air.

Surprisingly, there was not a trace of damage left on the statue. On the other hand, the broken pieces of the arrows fell to the ground.

“Why are there so many booby traps in this forsaken place?” Jonathan frowned at the arrows lying on the ground in front of the statue.

This hellish place looks more like a cemetery than Shadow Dragon Pool! Wait. A cemetery?

All of a sudden, Jonathan jerked his head up to look at the bronze sarcophagus hanging on top of the tree.

Who’s lying inside this coffin? Why is it here? Most importantly, why would anyone hang a coffin on top of an ancient tree in such a strange way?

A wave of questions flooded Jonathan’s mind at that moment. Just as he was about to continue climbing upward to explore the sarcophagus, a loud noise rang out. Suddenly, the tree began to tremble violently.

It felt like an earthquake.

Then, he heard a thunderous bang.

The sarcophagus that was hanging from the ancient tree slammed to the ground.

The sudden impact created a crater on the ground. Moreover, the sarcophagus’ lid shattered due to the intense vibration.

A foul stench permeated the air of the cave instantly.

That smell was akin to someone who had not showered for decades. The rotten smell was nauseating.

Jonathan could not help but retch at the foul stench.

Nevertheless, he held his breath and leaped off the tree. Then, he landed on the sarcophagus.

A skeleton lay inside the coffin. It was impossible to tell how long it had been since the person had passed away. The skeleton had turned dark with a tinge of yellow.

Strangely enough, the deceased was holding a longsword.

The sword was still sharp and without a trace of rust despite being kept inside the coffin for many years.

“What an incredible sword!” he exclaimed.

Jonathan, who was used to seeing famous swords from all over the world, instantly lit up the moment he saw this longsword.

The sword was less than two meters long, with a sharp edge.

One could feel the menacing sword aura at first glance.

Even the world’s sharpest sword would seem ordinary in front of this sword.

“Well, it looks like my trip wasn’t futile after all,” Jonathan uttered. Looking at the longsword in the sarcophagus, Jonathan shook his right hand and sent his internal energy toward the coffin. The sword that was held by the skeleton suddenly soared upward before falling into Jonathan’s hands.

Jonathan felt a chill the moment he touched the weapon.

Gripping the longsword, Jonathan swung it gently. The sound of the sword slicing the air resonated through the cave.

It seemed like the sword could cut through the air.

“Not bad.”

Jonathan casually swung the sword at the ancient tree that was more than ten meters tall.

With the help of the sword, the tree was cut in half immediately.

A loud bang instantly rang out.

The tree crashed onto the ground, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
