Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

113 Escape, Strange Black Sword

A large amount of white smoke rose into the air. When the smoke dissipated, Lin Ran was nowhere to be seen.

At this moment, Huo Qiyun was really hopeless.

“I won’t interfere if you want to die, but at least show me the way out before you jump!”

Huo Qiyun couldn’t help but curse. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The sword energy cage was powered by Lin Ran’s internal force. Now that Lin Ran had jumped into the black water, why was the sword energy cage still running?

“Is he still alive?”

Just as Huo Qiyun thought this, he saw the surging black water suddenly calm down. It was so fast that it was as if what happened just now was just an illusion.

Immediately after, the sound of water splashing could be heard. Ripples appeared on the calm water surface again, but it was not as violent as before. Instead, it was like a stream of quietly flowing water.

Huo Qiyun watched dumbfoundedly as all the water gathered at the place where Lin Ran jumped into the water and slowly twisted into an increasingly huge vortex.

As the vortex continued to expand, the water level began to lower rapidly. The old weapons that were submerged in the water started to come out, and dense worm-like holes appeared on them!

Just as Huo Qiyun was wondering what was going on, he suddenly saw Lin Ran’s head sticking out of the water surface. His face was red and he was gritting his teeth, as if he was enduring some extremely intense pain.

Huo Qiyun knew that it was the pain of the black water corroding him, but compared to feeling sorry for Lin Ran, he was more curious why Lin Ran wasn’t dead.

It had to be known that just a few drops of black water had already caused Huo Qiyun immense pain.

Now that Lin Ran was soaked in the black water, shouldn’t he be corroded to the point where not even ashes were left?

At this moment, the pitch-black water was still lowering rapidly.

Soon, Lin Ran’s upper body was revealed from the water. His clothes had been corroded clean, and his muscles were exposed to the air. His skin was as red as his face.

“Lin Ran.”

Huo Qiyun couldn’t help but shout, “Are you dead? If you’re not, just make a sound!”

“I’m fine! Lend me some of your internal force!”

Lin Ran closed his eyes and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

Almost at the same time, the fire attribute sword energy that lit up the cave was extinguished, and the sword energy cage around Huo Qiyun quietly collapsed.

Without the protection of the sword energy cage, endless violent sword intent instantly swept over!

Perhaps Huo Qiyun had already gotten used to it, but after being exposed to the sword intent this time, although he felt like his entire body was being cut by a knife, it was not as painful as before.

Huo Qiyun was puzzled, but he didn’t have time to think too much about it. He grabbed his sword and activated his internal force. He pointed at Lin Ran’s position and the majestic pure internal force immediately shot out from his sword!

A storm of sword intent wreaked havoc outside his body, and the internal force in his body was quickly dissipating.

In just a few seconds, Huo Qiyun began to feel his vision go dark. His consciousness began to dissipate bit by bit as his internal force was consumed…

“What’s wrong with me? Why do I risk my life for him?”

The last thought flashed across Huo Qiyun’s mind. Then, he couldn’t hold on anymore and fainted.

After an unknown period of time, Huo Qiyun was woken up by the dazzling light. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a magnificent scene—

The burning sun emitted a warm hue, dyeing a large area of the sky red.

Beside him, Lin Ran was leaning against a large rock with his eyes closed. The strange redness on his body had already receded, and his shoulder-length black hair fluttered in the evening breeze. There was only a rag around his waist, and that rag looked a little familiar.

Huo Qiyun looked down at his body. As expected, half of his clothes were gone.

“Lin Ran.”

Huo Qiyun roared and sat up. “Are you out of your mind?! Why did you tear my clothes off?!”

“Aiya, I’ll give you a new set of clothes when I get back!”

Lin Ran replied lazily with his eyes closed, looking exhausted. “Besides, I saved you. Isn’t your life worth a piece of tattered clothes?”

Seeing that he was so tired, Huo Qiyun was less angry. He sighed and asked, “What happened just now? Why didn’t you die when you jumped into the water?”

“What’s so strange about that?”

Lin Ran chuckled and raised his chin at Huo Qiyun. “Aren’t you fine too?”

Huo Qiyun had also come into physical contact with a lot of black water previously, and his clothes had long been turned into tatters.

He thought that his body would be covered in scars, so he did not dare to look at it. After hesitating for a moment, he looked down and realized that there were no scars at all.

“What’s going on?”

Huo Qiyun couldn’t help but ask in surprise. As he spoke, he looked at a few places where he clearly remembered being corroded, but he still didn’t find any signs of scars.

Lin Ran shrugged with his eyes closed. “I’m not sure either. Perhaps this insect is vegetarian?”

“Insect?”

Huo Qiyun was about to ask something when he saw Lin Ran pick up a sword from the ground beside him. The sword was black, and so was the ground.

“See for yourself!”

As Lin Ran spoke, he threw the sword over. Huo Qiyun caught it and realized that something was wrong.

Firstly, this sword was much heavier than he had imagined. Secondly, the blade was as black as ink and as smooth as a mirror. However, when he held it in his hand, the surface felt very rough, as if there were many invisible particles attached to it.

Huo Qiyun held the hilt of the sword and waved it gently. He immediately decided that it was impossible for this sword to be used in actual combat because the center of gravity was too strange.

Usually, a long sword’s center of gravity was closer to the hilt so that the sword holder could dance with it, while a heavy sword’s center of gravity was closer to the tip of the sword, so that its slash could cause more damage.

The shape of this sword was clearly that of a long sword, but it had the center of gravity of a heavy sword, giving people the feeling that the sword would fly out if the sword holder didn’t control his strength well while wielding it.

In short, in Huo Qiyun’s opinion, there was almost nothing desirable about this sword. As a sword, it didn’t even have the most basic sword intent. He really didn’t understand what Lin Ran wanted him to see.

“Lin Ran, this sword…”

Huo Qiyun was puzzled and was about to ask when he realized that Lin Ran was smiling. Then, the black sword began to melt in his hand!
