Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

Chapter 54: The Truth About the Hidden Sword Pavilion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

With doubts in his heart, Lin Ran turned around and walked towards the door.

This time, Lin Ran walked very slowly. Along the way, he kept looking around and even used his spiritual energy to investigate. However, even when he reached the door, he still did not find any traces of the secret room.

Just as Lin Ran was feeling puzzled, an official from the Hidden Sword Pavilion walked in and bowed with his left hand on his chest. “Greetings, Ten Miles Sword God.”

Lin Ran retracted his thoughts. Looking at Liu Tao’s imperial attire, he knew that he was a fourth-grade official. He asked, “Lord Liu, what’s the matter?”

Liu Tao smiled and probed, “I noticed just now that you seem to be looking for something in the Hidden Sword Pavilion. I’ve been staying here for a long time. Perhaps I can be of service to you.”

When Lin Ran heard this, he felt that it was a good idea, so he pretended to be calm and said, “I’m not looking for anything in particular. I just heard that the Hidden Sword Pavilion has a collection of many famous generals’ weapons, so I wanted to see them for myself.”

“Famous generals’ weapons?”

When Liu Tao heard this, he looked confused. “Sword God, where did you hear the rumors? I’ve been in the Hidden Sword Pavilion for seven years and have never heard of any weapons from famous generals.”

“No?”

This time, Lin Ran was completely stunned. Had he been deceived by Daoist Li?

However, if there were no famous general weapons here, why would the system ring? Could it be that it was a special location without weapons?

As soon as this thought appeared, Lin Ran immediately denied it.

Ever since he awakened the system, Lin Ran had only signed in at Mount Sword. The great opportunities he obtained were also related to the divine weapons in Mount Sword.

Therefore, there was no doubt that the system and divine weapons were inextricably linked.

At that time, Lin Ran was just a mountain guard. Daoist Li had no reason to lie to him, so there must be a secret room here. It was just that he had yet to find the right way to find it.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran waved at Liu Tao. “It’s fine. You can leave first. I’ll look around.”

Liu Tao nodded and walked away, and Lin Ran returned to the center of the Hidden Sword Pavilion.

The exterior of the Hidden Sword Pavilion was an octagonal building, and the weapons racks were arranged according to the Eight Trigrams. In the middle of the Hidden Sword Pavilion was the Eight Trigrams. Logically speaking, if there was a secret treasure room hidden here, it was most likely in the center.

Lin Ran found the center and sat down cross-legged. He looked around and suddenly felt a little strange.

Logically speaking, for the sake of convenience, these weapon racks should be arranged in a straight line, but in reality, all the weapon racks were placed in a staggered manner.

From Lin Ran’s point of view, there seemed to be endless weapons racks in all directions.

Lin Ran closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. A thought flashed through his mind. He knew what he had thought of, but he just couldn’t grasp the message of it.

Just as Lin Ran was feeling anxious, a few officials who came in to get swords saw him sitting there cross-legged. They did not dare to disturb him and quietly took the swords and left.

When one of them passed by Lin Ran, he couldn’t help but stagger and a long sword fell from his arms.

The hilt of the sword hit the ground and slipped out of the scabbard with a clang. The snow-white sword drew an arc in the air and landed in Lin Ran’s palm!

“Oh no!”

Lin Ran’s expression changed drastically and he hurriedly withdrew his palm, but it was too late.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in and obtaining the Qimen Sword Technique.]

A golden light that ordinary people could not see entered his glabella.

After signing in a few times, Lin Ran already had a preliminary understanding of the mechanism of this system.

Although he could sign in at the same location repeatedly, the rewards he obtained the first time were the best. For example, the [Formless Sword Body] he obtained in Mount Sword and the [Nine Yin-Yang Swords] he obtained in the throne room.

At the same time, the value of the system reward was also related to the sword Lin Ran had wiped when he signed in.

When he wiped those divine weapons on Mount Sword, the rewards he obtained were all extremely difficult to obtain just by cultivating like sword bodies and sword intent. When he wiped ordinary swords, he could only obtain cultivation techniques and sword techniques.

Therefore, before coming to the Hidden Sword Pavilion, Lin Ran had made up his mind to find a divine weapon. He did not expect this standard longsword to find its way to touch him.

The ancient manual slowly unfolded in his mind. Lin Ran was surprised to find that although this reward was called a sword technique, it was actually more like a movement technique.

However, the content of the manual was too obscure. Lin Ran, who was feeling frustrated, was really not in the mood to study it. He only read it briefly before throwing it to the back of his mind.

At this moment, when the low-ranking official saw that the sword had actually fallen into the hands of the Sword God, his face instantly turned pale. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. “Sword God, please forgive me! Please forgive me! I didn’t do it on purpose! Please forgive me!”

The other low-ranking officials also knelt down like a group of frightened quails, trembling and not daring to speak.

“Forget it, it’s all fate.”

Lin Ran waved and dismissed them, sounding indescribably frustrated.

After being disturbed by this low-ranking official, Lin Ran no longer had the mood to continue searching for the secret room. Since he had already obtained the reward for signing in today, he planned to go back and study the manual before coming back tomorrow.

After making up his mind, Lin Ran walked out absent-mindedly. However, as he walked, he realized that something was wrong. He seemed to have arrived at a place he had never been to before.

He was surrounded by weapons racks made of ebony. The longswords on the racks were arranged exactly the same, but he felt that he had never been to this place before.

Lin Ran stood on his tiptoes and could see that the door of the Hidden Sword Pavilion was not far to the right. However, a thought suddenly occurred to him that drove him to walk to the left.

This thought appeared for no reason, but the driving force was very strong. It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands pushing him from behind, making Lin Ran feel that he had to go left!

“Qimen Technique… Qimen… Qimen!”

Lin Ran suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder the weapon racks here were placed like this. It turned out that someone had done it on purpose. The few officials just now were the best example!

Logically speaking, when they saw Lin Ran sitting there, they would definitely take a detour. However, they still walked past him. There must be a reason why they did that.

In other words, their path in the Hidden Sword Pavilion was fixed. Once they deviated from the path, something bad would happen. They would be lost in the Qimen array!

This also explained why Liu Tao did not know about the existence of the secret room. The technique of the Mystic Sect was obscure and mysterious. Even Lin Ran was tricked when he entered.

Even if Liu Tao and the others guarded here until they died, they would not know the truth of the Hidden Sword Pavilion!

After figuring this out, Lin Ran immediately moved between the weapons racks.

Soon, a black boulder appeared out of thin air in front of him.
