Chapter 222 - 222 Sword Tomb Mystic Realm! Sword Spirit Ruins!
222 Sword Tomb Mystic Realm! Sword Spirit Ruins!
In the ruins of the Sunset Dynasty, Jian Ba was sweating profusely, and his arms were trembling non-stop because he had been exhausted.
“Big Brother, aren’t you too abnormal?”
Jian Ba’s face was filled with disbelief. Looking at Jian Yi, who was breathing steadily and looking calm, he was dumbfounded.
You’re telling me that this is the King-tier?
If this was a king-level creature, what would I be if I was crushed in all aspects?
Jian Ba was a little depressed.
Initially, he thought that now that he had returned to the Extraordinary realm and was powerful, it was impossible for him to not be able to defeat the King-tier Jian Yi. Now, it seemed like… he was thinking too much.
“Hehe, it’s nothing. Although my realm is only at the King Realm, my star power has already recovered to S-rank. Coupled with my previous foundation and the terrifying star power, it’s not too much to defeat you.”
Jian Yi smiled and took a sip of wine. He said casually, “Besides, I’ve long seen through your moves. With pertinent countermeasures, it’s normal for you to not be able to withstand my moves.”
“Of course, if I gave you a chance to stack enough strength, I wouldn’t be your match. I can only say that… brute force alone isn’t enough. You were also a Legend previously, but you ended up in such a miserable state. This is the reason.”
Jian Yi said patiently, “Your problem is very obvious. I hope you can pay more attention in the future and not be seen through at a glance. It’s too disadvantageous for you.”
“Ah? So troublesome. It’s just a fight. Is there a need to use the brain?”
When Jian Ba heard this, he pursed his lips and said, “As long as I’m satisfied, it’s fine. My combat instincts are not weak.”
“Your combat talent is not bad, but when facing an opponent with similarly powerful combat talent, your advantage is not obvious.”
Jian Yi smiled and said, “At this time, experience and strategy are especially important. You were not bad before, but you lost to Lin Bei, who was much weaker than you. Isn’t that enough to explain many problems?”
“Uh… That kid is too sinister. If not for the fact that my strength was limited back then and I couldn’t break through the rules of the ruins, he wouldn’t have been able to win at all!”
Jian Ba thought of how “inhumanely” he had been dragged underground and gritted his teeth.
“Heh, a loss is a loss. How can there be so many excuses?”
Jian Yi shook his head with a smile. “If you weren’t the guardian of the ruins and protected by the rules of the ruins to be reborn infinitely, you would have died long ago. How would you have the chance to stand here and complain?”
“I—”
“Alright, that’s all I have to say. If you don’t want to make the same mistake in the future, learn from Lin Bei. That kid… is very smart.”
Jian Yi said, “If you could learn 30% of his abilities, you might not have lost the battle between us just now.”
“No way? Is that kid so powerful?”
“It’s not about whether he’s powerful or not. The key is… he has more brains than you.”
Jian Yi waved his hand and looked at Jian Ba, who seemed to understand. He said helplessly, “Alright, leave. He’s coming to find you. Remember to learn more. Don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
“Next, you’re most likely going to the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm. It was the place where the Sword God once hid his sword. Many years have passed and many Sword Spirits have definitely evolved. To you, it’s also an opportunity.”
Jian Yi said in a deep voice, “Remember one thing. Try your best to absorb the power of the Sword Spirits. That’s pure Sword Dao comprehension. It’s very helpful for you to return to the Legendary Realm. Also, don’t be too greedy. Take every step steadily. If I’m not wrong, after so long, there might have been a Legendary Sword Spirit inside. Don’t provoke such an existence.”
“Tell Lin Bei what I told you later. As for the rest, you can do as you see fit.”
Jian Yi continued, “Go. I hope you’ll improve the next time you come back.”
“Alright, Big Brother, take care too! I’ll go!”
Jian Ba waved and turned to leave.
Outside the ruins of the Sunset Dynasty, Lin Bei was about to enter when light suddenly flickered at the entrance, and Jian Ba appeared.
“Let’s go.”
Jian Ba rubbed his fists and smiled. “I can’t wait!”
“Uh… I’d better go in and greet Jian Yi.”
Lin Bei was stunned.
“There’s no need. Big Brother said that he wanted me to follow you and learn something from you. However… I don’t understand. What’s wrong with you? It’s only been two days since we last met. Why have you become stronger again?”
Jian Ba frowned and sniffed Lin Bei.
“Compared to you, I’m considered slow.”
Lin Bei shook his head and did not care too much.
“Can that be compared?”
Jian Ba said helplessly, “It’s because I have a foundation in the Legendary Realm. Coupled with Extraordinary Spirit Essences, I can quickly increase my strength, but you haven’t cultivated before. Your cultivation speed is so fast. It makes me very ashamed!”
“Indeed, what Big Brother said makes sense. Following you… I should be able to learn a lot!”
“Did Jian Yi really say that?”
Lin Bei asked curiously.
“That’s right. Big Brother said that I’m brainless. If I had a third of your brains, I wouldn’t have lost so badly in that competition just now.”
Jian Ba said in a muffled voice.
Lin Bei was slightly stunned.
Jian Ba’s words made him think of many things.
“As expected, Jian Yi is not as ordinary as he looks. He does not only have the strength of a King.”
Lin Bei thought to himself.
Jian Ba’s strength was obvious to everyone. Under the stacking of strength and Lin Bei’s full eruption of star power, he could directly insta-kill Extraordinary existences. However, such a fierce man was actually not a King-tier opponent. Can you believe it?
“I wonder what Jian Yi is planning. Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore. Who cares about his plan? I’ll increase my strength first. In this world, there’s nothing that makes me feel safer than increasing my strength.”
Lin Bei pondered and said, “As long as I’m strong enough, no matter what schemes he has, it’s useless!”
“Alright, let’s go now.”
Lin Bei directly used his lord’s ability to lead the few of them back to Dark Moon Valley. They arrived at the secret room protected by the array and activated the Ancient Token of the Sword Tomb.
A teleportation array appeared in front of Lin Bei. Lin Bei and Qiqi looked at each other and stepped in.
Swoosh!
With a flash of light, Lin Bei was teleported to a world filled with sword energy.
You have been teleported to the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm!
Note: There are many Sword Spirit ruins scattered in the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm. If you successfully challenge the ruins, you can obtain generous rewards!
Note: In the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm, there is a chaotic sword aura. If you are hit by the sword aura, you will suffer damage and receive negative effects!
Note: There are three dangerous places in the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm. Be careful!
Note: …
As soon as he entered the Sword Tomb Mystic Realm, Lin Bei received a series of system notifications.
Sword Spirit Ruins? Three dangerous places?
“That’s interesting.”
Lin Bei smiled and looked at a huge sword shadow about a thousand meters away.
There were a few faint words on the sword shadow.
Mystic Iron Giant Sword Ruins
“This should be one of the Sword Spirit Ruins prompted by the System, right? The Mystic Iron Giant Sword should be the sword body attached to the Sword Spirit, right?”
Lin Bei speculated.
Soon, light flashed beside him, and Qiqi and Jian Ba appeared.
“Wow, what dense sword aura! I like it! Hahaha…”
Jian Ba took a deep breath and laughed out loud. “Kid, this Sword Tomb Mystic Realm is a good place. Not to mention anything else, just the sword aura has a significant improvement in the Sword Dao! If you comprehend it well, you might be able to directly obtain another Star Dao!”
“The most important thing for a Star Swordsman is the Sword Dao! Therefore, you have to seize the opportunity!”
Jian Ba reminded Lin Bei.
Lin Bei nodded solemnly.
Indeed, as a Star Swordsman, his various abilities had almost nothing to do with the Sword Dao.
The only thing related was the Sword of Stars ability.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
“Just as Jian Ba said, this trip to the Sword Tomb mystic realm is also an opportunity for me to awaken my Sword Dao.”
Lin Bei thought to himself and clenched his fists.
This was a rare opportunity. He had to hurry up.
