Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible
Chapter 101 - Perseverance Is VictoryChapter 101: Perseverance Is Victory
After an unknown period of time.
Huo Qiyun asked in the darkness, “Is it still vibrating?”
“Yeah.”
…
“And now?”
“… Same.”
…
“Can we do it now?”
“… Not yet.”
…
It was unknown how much time had passed in the darkness. It might have been an hour or a day.
Lin Ran finally perked up again. “Get up and get to work!”
Huo Qiyun sighed and stood up. After sitting for so long, his legs were numb!
After checking the thickness of the stone walls, Huo Qiyun shook his head at Lin Ran. “I can’t do it. These stone walls are more than 300 feet thick. The sword intent here is too strong. I can’t break it.”
Lin Ran nodded and pressed on a stone wall. He shook his head and pressed on another stone wall.
A moment later, Lin Ran finally retracted his hand. Huo Qiyun quickly asked, “How is it?”
Lin Ran replied with a strange expression, “A thousand feet.”
“You can break a stone of this size. You’re indeed a monster!”
Huo Qiyun exclaimed and began to calculate. “When I was waiting just now, I tested the hardness of the stone wall. With my strength, I can dig about 100 feet a day, which is ten days… But you’re definitely faster than me. Start digging now. We’ll be out in five days!”
Lin Ran smacked his lips and said with a strange expression, “Maybe I didn’t say it clearly. My divine sense can only reach a thousand feet, but it’s by no means the end.”
Huo Qiyun’s face stiffened. “Then what should we do? We don’t know which direction is shorter. Do we have to rely on luck?”
“What else?” Lin Ran asked with a calm expression.
“After waiting for so long, I’ve already thought it through. Even if I have to dig all the way from the foot of the mountain to the top, I’ll do it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ran raised his hand and summoned the Yin-Yang Sword to slash the stone.
Tens of thousands of extremely sharp sword energies appeared in the air, spinning crazily and converging in one place. Like an indestructible steel torrent, they roared and blasted against the pitch-black stone wall!
Boom!
With a loud bang, the huge sound wave caused a terrifying echo in the enclosed cave passage. Huo Qiyun immediately felt his entire body tremble and almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
The explosive sound gradually disappeared after a quarter of an hour.
When the dust dissipated, a black hole more than ten feet wide and nearly ten feet deep appeared on the stone wall in front of Lin Ran.
Huo Qiyun looked at the figure standing in front of the cave in shock, as if he had just met Lin Ran today!
He knew how hard the stone wall was. With his current strength, it would take him at least a day to dig a hundred feet.
But Lin Ran only used one strike.
In the past, when Huo Qiyun followed Lin Ran to find the sects involved in the rebellion, he thought that he had seen Lin Ran’s full strength. But now, it seemed that Lin Ran was holding back a lot at that time!
“Is this the strength of a Half-Saint? Or is he still holding back?”
Huo Qiyun muttered to himself. Suddenly, he saw Lin Ran raise his sword again. The sword at his waist was immediately unsheathed half an inch, and hundreds of sword energy formed a barrier that instantly surrounded Huo Qiyun.
Boom—
With another loud bang, Huo Qiyun’s sword energy barrier shattered. It was as if a heavy hammer had smashed into his chest, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood!
Seeing Lin Ran raise his sword for the third time, Huo Qiyun hurriedly shouted, “Wait!”
Lin Ran stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Huo Qiyun in confusion. “Do you have a good idea?”
“No.”
Huo Qiyun shook his head and took the opportunity to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. “But can you hold back a little? Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on until you dig it out.”
“I’m just trying to speed up the process!”
As Lin Ran spoke, he raised his sword again. “Bear with it for a while longer. When the depth is enough, I’ll go in. You’ll feel better then.”
With that, another sword energy rang out.
A loud buzzing sound swept over from all directions. Huo Qiyun even had the illusion that the entire main peak of Mount Sword was shaken by this sword energy!
However, perhaps because the explosion was quite far away, Huo Qiyun did not spat out blood this time. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Lin Ran flash into the cave. Almost at the same time, a huge wave of air blew out with gravel!
Seeing the rocks hit the stone wall and cause sparks, Huo Qiyun immediately gave up on the idea of following him in. Instead, he found the furthest spot and began to circulate his energy to heal.
There was another long wait.
Huo Qiyun’s injuries had almost recovered, but the rumbling that seemed to shake the entire mountain did not stop.
“It can’t be that deep, right?”
Huo Qiyun muttered softly and looked at the dark hole in the distance. Perhaps because Lin Han had dug far enough, there was only thin dust spewing out from it.
At this moment, the sound coming from the depths of the hole suddenly stopped.
The sudden silence made Huo Qiyun uncomfortable for a moment, but then he realized that this meant that Lin Ran had already dug a way out!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
After a series of whooshing sounds, Lin Ran appeared in the passage.
His clothes and face were covered in dust. However, his eyes were shining with excitement and his mouth was wide open. Huo Qiyun could even see his molars!
“I finally dug it out!”
Lin Ran shouted, his excited voice echoing in the stone passage.
“So be it! Why are you shouting? You don’t look like a Half-Saint at all!”
Huo Qiyun habitually talked back, but there was also an excited smile on his face.
Lin Ran snorted in disdain. “What should a Half-Saint be like? Why do you keep a straight face every day? Just looking at you makes me tired!”
Huo Qiyun smiled and didn’t say anything. He was suddenly a little touched because Lin Ran didn’t leave after digging a way out. Instead, he came back to tell him.
Although this distance might not be much to Lin Ran, the fact that he made this choice meant that Huo Qiyun still had a place in his heart.
Rubbing the corners of his eyes, Huo Qiyun stood up and urged, “Cut the crap and get out quickly. I don’t want to stay in this godforsaken place for another minute!”
Lin Ran gestured at the entrance of the cave. Just as Huo Qiyun was about to enter, he suddenly heard a faint buzzing sound, and it was very close.
The two of them looked at each other in confusion and lowered their heads to look at the source of the buzzing—
On the Ten Miles Dragon Roar at Lin Ran’s waist, the dragon gem flickered with a red light again…
