Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible
Chapter 240 - 240 Huge Underground Space240 Huge Underground Space
Seeing how confident Lin Ran was, Shen Rulin calmed down and waited quietly. Of course, this was mainly because he really didn’t have any other choice.
After deciding to wait, the surrounding fell silent.
Lin Ran sat cross-legged and meditated. A few fire sword energies circled around him like butterflies. Shen Rulin stood at the side with his hand on the hilt of his sword, scanning the surrounding darkness warily, even though he couldn’t see anything.
“Take a break.”
After a long while, Lin Ran closed his eyes and said, “At our current speed, we’ll reach the foot of the mountain in about fifteen minutes. We’ll be fine.”
“How do you know we’ll definitely reach the foot of the mountain?”
Lin Ran pursed his lips and didn’t say anything else. The surrounding fell silent again.
As if feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Shen Rulin thought for a moment and asked, “I haven’t asked you… Why are you here?”
“I’m here to save someone.”
Lin Ran replied with his eyes closed, “I have two friends recuperating in this mountain. When I heard that there was a phenomenon here, I rushed over immediately.”
“No wonder.”
Shen Rulin nodded thoughtfully. Previously, he had always been curious why Lin Ran, who could easily flatten the mountain with a strike, wanted to run around with him.
Now that he thought about it, Lin Ran was probably worried that he would accidentally hurt his companions in the mountains. Fortunately, Lin Ran wasn’t rash. Otherwise, all the Golden Guards would really be dead.
Even now, Shen Rulin still did not give up on saving his people. Or rather, he would never give up until he saw the corpses of those people.
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard a soft sound in the darkness. It sounded like gravel rolling down the hill.
Shen Rulin instantly became vigilant. Almost at the same time, two fire sword energies flashed in the direction of the sound!
“We’re here.”
Only then did Shen Rulin realize that Lin Ran was already standing beside him.
“Didn’t you say that it would take another fifteen minutes?”
Shen Rulin asked softly, his tone filled with confusion.
“It seems that there are more secrets in this mountain than I know.”
As he spoke, the Yin-Yang Sword appeared in his hand. His sharp eyes were fixed on the two fire sword energies, and his voice was filled with vigilance. “When we first came down, was this place so big?”
At first, Shen Rulin was confused. Seeing the two fire sword energies fly further and further away in the darkness, his expression gradually turned ugly.
Previously, he had used the light of the fire to size up this place. It looked like an underground secret room. Because they were descending, he did not pay attention to the exact height, but the width and length here were only about a hundred steps.
However, as the two of them spoke, the two fire sword energies had already swept a thousand steps away, like two stars flickering in the darkness. When they first came down, this place was definitely not so spacious!
“There’s a problem!”
Shen Rulin subconsciously shouted in a low voice. His voice was still lingering in the air when he heard a soft sound coming from the darkness in the distance. Then, the two fire sword energies were instantly swallowed by the darkness!
“What happened?”
Shen Rulin immediately looked at Lin Ran. “Why did you put out the sword energy?”
“I didn’t do it!”
His face pale as he said, “The sword energy was dispersed. There’s something there!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ran suddenly raised the Yin-Yang Sword and slashed out. In an instant, hundreds of fire sword energy surged out. The thick darkness was dispersed, revealing a large amount of starlight in the distant darkness.
Shen Rulin took a closer look and his expression changed drastically. The flickering starlight was all condensed sword energy that was roaring at them!
…
Outside Mount Sword.
An elegant white carriage stopped in the middle of the road. Four white horses were leaning against each other as if they were resting. From time to time, they would shake their heads and snort. No matter how the wind howled in the mountain, the carriage was unmoved.
Suddenly, the smooth curtain fluttered a few times, and a low voice sounded. “Guard.”
His voice was not loud, but it seemed to carry magic as it traveled far into the wilderness. In an instant, a white figure flashed forward and knelt on one knee. “Commander, what can I do for you?”
“How’s the situation?”
The person in the carriage asked in a low voice.
The white-armored guard hesitated for a moment before replying honestly, “Commander, five-colored smoke was found on the mountain just now. We’ve already brought back the ten people from Team Seven… Deputy Commander Shen is missing.”
The wind flew out from inside the carriage, but it instantly calmed down. “Send another team in.”
The white-armored guard hesitated for a moment and asked, “May I ask what the main mission of this team is?”
“Same as before. Gather information.”
“What about Deputy Commander Shen…”
“That’s not for you to be concerned about. Do what you have to do.”
The person in the carriage replied in a low voice. Then, as if having heard a command, the four white horses stood up and slowly walked towards the main peak of Mount Sword with steady footsteps.
…
In Mount Sword.
The originally flat stone wall in the cave was covered in spiderweb-like patterns. Rocks of all sizes were scattered all over the ground, as if a huge battle had just happened here.
Lin Ran and Shen Rulin sat back to back on the ground with a few wounds on their bodies.
“I owe you my life.”
Shen Rulin panted heavily with a lingering fear on his face. If Lin Ran hadn’t pulled him back just now, he would have died.
Lin Ran waved his hand to show that it was alright. Then, he raised his hand and summoned the Thunderball Sword. “This sword can increase your speed. Your speed is still slow.”
Shen Rulin took it. “Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it. I’m also doing this to help myself.”
Lin Ran glanced at Shen Rulin and said jokingly, “It’s unrealistic to let you go back now. If you become stronger, you can save me a lot of trouble.”
These words were not pleasant to hear, but Shen Rulin only smiled instead of taking offense. Then, he looked up at the darkness in the distance and said warily, “Did you see it clearly just now? What is that?”
“I saw it clearly. It’s a person.”
Lin Ran replied, his tone casual as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.
Hearing that, Shen Rulin wasn’t too worried, but if he saw Lin Ran’s expression at this moment, he probably wouldn’t think so.
