935 Indestructible? (2/2)

The heavy wounds he had sustained were still not fully healed after all. The might he had forcefully unleashed this time around was no doubt already his best shot; it almost seemed like the damage inflicted onto himself was more than what that was inflicted onto the subject matter.

Yun Yang retracted Divine Edge and stepped forward to take a look, breathless. ”As expected, this chain has an unusual sturdiness to it. Judging by my cultivation strength now, a stellar core would've at least cracked halfway through by the blow just now, whereas this chain only suffered from a cut of a hair's thickness. I'm afraid the strength needed to sever this chain would be an astronomically large amount…”

”No worries, it's good that you can cut through it. Dripping water would be able to penetrate stone one day, so this will definitely succeed in due time.”

Dong Qitian was almost shocked to the point where he could not manage to get a word out, but due to him being particularly fast-thinking, he deftly got back to his feet and gave Yun Yang ample confidence in a convincing manner. When he looked at Yun Yang, especially at the unparalleled blade in his hands, Dong Qitian felt his values thoroughly overwhelmed by the scenario before him.

With his cultivation level, melting metals using his mystical abilities was definitely not a very tough task. He could even cut through metal as if it was mud with his bare hands. However, every single technique he knew was useless against this weird chain, rendering him completely helpless.

Dong Qitian had tried countless times in the many years he was imprisoned here, so he already knew just how sturdy these chains were. Nothing could destroy it, or even break or damage it. It was simply indestructible.

The main objective of having Yun Yang here this time was none other than to save himself from a hopeless cause. It was just an attempt, for the thing he actually yearned for was Yun Yang's air of vitality. As long as he had a certain level of vitality, he could attain a breakthrough for his stagnated cultivation state, and he could think of ways to save himself after achieving that.

If it was not for that, why would he even argue about the terms? He would have agreed to complete a hundred tasks without hesitation! What else could possibly be more important than his own freedom? Be it himself, his very being, his very life!

Bargaining about the terms like old women in a market was none other than a ruse to provoke Yun Yang, a plan to give Yun Yang more reason to help him. At least during the moment when he was asked for some air of vitality, he would not hesitate or be too reluctant to help!

However, never would he have expected that Yun Yang not only had the air of vitality, he also possessed this God-like blade that could damage this unusual chain!

This outcome was severely unanticipated by Dong Qitian, as if he had experienced an extremely pleasant dream.

This was the best possible thing that could ever have happened — something he did not even dare to hope for in the first place!

”Sigh, to sum it up, I'm still bearing rather serious injuries right now and I've already reached my limit, so I definitely can't pry this open.”

Yun Yang continued. ”Elder, please allow me two days to recuperate; once my abilities are fully restored, I believe that breaking this chain will not merely be sheer imagination. The day where you break out of here is just before your eyes, elder.”

Dong Qitian's voice was quivering. ”Good… That's good… That's great…”

This was simply the best, most earth-shattering news ever!

It did not matter if it was two days. Even if it was two years… Dong Qitian would still feel that it was terribly fast!

Too fast!

Hope and freedom are just before my eyes!

Just two days; why that's nothing…

This blessing had come in too suddenly and too extraordinarily!

However, just as quickly, Dong Qitian suddenly felt time crawl.

The slowness of it crept up on him almost instantly after the ecstatic feeling wore off little by little. He did not live through everyday feeling as if years had slipped by, he was simply living through every second feeling as if years had passed!

It was unbearably slow!
