Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

233 The Phenomenon of Mount Sword, Dark Clouds Covering the Sky

Hearing that a phenomenon had appeared on Mount Sword, the empress subconsciously turned to look at Lin Ran. She saw his expression suddenly change before his figure flashed and disappeared.

The empress did not know what was going on, but she already had an ominous feeling. She hurriedly looked at Song Rentong and asked, “Tell me! What kind of phenomenon appeared on Mount Sword?”

“Well…”

When Song Rentong heard this, he looked troubled. He waved his hand and dismissed everyone. Then, he took a few steps forward and said in a low voice, “Your Majesty, the Five Elements Imperial Guards have reported that at one this morning, dark clouds covered the main peak of Mount Sword.”

“The Golden Guards have sent a total of 36 people to investigate… No one has returned.”

“What?!”

When the empress heard this, her expression instantly changed because she remembered that Lin Ran had said that Huo Qiyun was taking care of the injured Xiao Huai, and they were at Mount Sword at this moment!

…

Outside the capital, Mount Sword.

At some point, a large number of white-armored soldiers had gathered at the foot of the mountain. At a glance, there were thousands of them.

Everyone was looking at the main peak of Mount Sword with cold expressions. At this moment, the main peak of Mount Sword was enveloped by a thick dark cloud.

Outside the mountain-protecting array formation, a white carriage was parked by the roadside. It looked like some high-ranking official was out for a sightseeing trip, but when the soldiers passed by, they subconsciously slowed down, as if they were afraid of disturbing the people in the carriage.

A soldier in white armor suddenly rushed over. His metal boots made a series of crisp sounds on the ground. Just from the sound, one could tell how anxious he was at this moment.

After a while, the soldier arrived in front of the carriage. Just as he was about to bow, a deep voice suddenly came from the carriage. “What’s the situation like over there?”

The white-armored soldier was stunned for a moment before replying in a low voice, “Commander, the sixth team of the Golden Guards has been in Mount Sword for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. There’s been no news from them until now.”

“Send another team.”

He replied in a low voice in the carriage. There was no emotion in his calm tone, as if he was just asking someone to pour him a glass of water.

However, the white-armored soldier’s expression changed slightly. He frowned and hesitated for a moment before taking off the bandana on his face.

Without the bandana, this person’s face was completely revealed. Even though he was wearing thick armor, he still looked like a weak scholar.

However, at this moment, he was solemn as he looked at the carriage with a burning gaze. If Lin Ran was here, he would recognize this person as the deputy general of the Five Elements Guards, Shen Rulin.

“Commaner!”

Shen Rulin shouted with an extremely anxious expression, “The Golden Guards have already lost more than 70 people. If this continues, all our brothers will die inside!”

“So what?”

The person in the carriage asked indifferently, his tone still casual. “Don’t forget the duty of the Five Elements Imperial Guards. As long as we can ensure the safety of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, we will die ten thousand times.”

“But they shouldn’t die like this!”

Shen Rulin widened his eyes and roared, “More than 70 brothers died inside, but we still don’t know what’s happening. Their deaths are meaningless! I want to lead a team inside myself. With my cultivation, I can at least send the news out!”

After a moment of silence in the carriage, the low voice sounded again. “No, send another team in.”

When Shen Rulin heard this, his eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at the white curtain on the carriage. In the end, he couldn’t help but shout in a low voice, “Father! You can’t…”

“You have to call me commander in the army!”

At the same time, a faint grandmaster aura spread out. Under the pressure, Shen Rulin immediately knelt on the ground.

The armor fell heavily to the ground with a thud, but Shen Rulin still maintained his posture. He stared at the carriage with a burning gaze and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth. “Father! We can’t afford to let anyone die!”

The curtain on the carriage fluttered, as if someone wanted to come out.

At this moment, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded from all directions!

Shen Rulin’s expression changed drastically as he hurriedly looked up and saw a figure riding a sword over. He barged into the mountain-protecting array formation like a meteor and flew straight towards Mount Sword!

It was not until the figure disappeared into the dark clouds that a white-armored soldier rushed over. “Commander, an unknown person has barged into Mount Sword!”

Shen Rulin hurriedly looked at the carriage. “Commander! This person’s cultivation is extraordinary. Ordinary Golden Guards are no match for him!”

A deep voice came from the carriage. His tone finally showed some emotions. “Be careful. When you are in danger, retreat.”

As he spoke, the mountain-like pressure on Shen Rulin quietly dissipated.

Shen Rulin was overjoyed. He cupped his hands and said, “Yes.” Then, he drew his sword and shouted sternly, “Brothers above the sixth level of the Senior Martial Master Realm, follow me into the mountain!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground under Shen Rulin’s feet cracked, and he shot towards Mount Sword like an arrow leaving the bow. Ten more people unsheathed their swords and followed closely behind him without hesitation!

…

Mount Sword’s main peak.

As soon as Lin Ran rushed into the dark cloud, he immediately sensed that something was wrong. This dark cloud was thick and inky and was not natural at all. It was filled with a dense evil aura.

“As expected, something happened to Xiao Huai and Huo Qiyun!

Lin Ran thought to himself. Then, he turned around and landed on the mountainside below the dark cloud.

This dark cloud was abnormally dense. When people entered, they would not be able to see anything. The surging evil aura would also block the divine sense from spreading out. Speaking of which, it was somewhat similar to the Great Yong Dynasty’s Cloud Concealment Array.

However, although that was the case, this dark cloud was actually much more dangerous than the Cloud Concealment Array.

The danger of the Cloud Concealment Array was that it would strip people of their five senses and make them lose their way. However, the evil aura in the dark cloud could corrupt people’s minds. Even with Lin Ran’s current cultivation, he still did not dare to step into it rashly.

Just as Lin Ran was looking at the dark cloud in the sky, a sharp sword intent suddenly approached. He turned around and saw a soldier in white armor flying towards him on his sword.

“Golden Guards?”

Lin Ran recognized the other party and hurriedly raised his hand and shouted, “Don’t attack! We’re on the same side!”

The white-armored soldier was about to attack when he heard this. He retracted his sword and landed on the ground. He tore off his bandana and asked in surprise, “Lord Lin! Why are you here?”

“Shen Rulin?”

At this moment, Lin Ran also recognized the person. He was about to say something when he suddenly saw a few more people flying over on swords.

Lin Ran scanned with his divine sense and shouted anxiously, “Send them back! Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome!”
