C87 (1/2)
After surviving in the Jade Light Sword Tomb for almost a hundred days, Zhou Tong had gradually gotten used to it.
Three days later, the riots arrived on time as usual. Countless swords and sabers came to life again, each beeping with joy.
However, there was a person standing quietly on top of a mountain peak within this forbidden zone of creatures. He was like a statue, allowing countless blades to whistle past him.
This person was naturally Zhou Tong. Three days ago, Zhou Tong had already sensed that he was already very close to the date of his breakthrough, so he decided to give up hiding when the chaos was approaching. Instead, he prepared to engage in an exciting battle and borrow the sword intent from the flying swords to help himself advance to the fifth level of the Dao entry level.
Ah right, after three months, Zhou Tong's cultivation had increased from the original second stage of the Dao, to the fourth stage. Although Zhou Tong himself did not feel much, but if he were to return to the sect at such a speed, it would most likely cause a huge commotion again.
”He's here!”
Taking in a deep breath, Zhou Tong suddenly opened his eyes. That Multi Bone Sword which had not been sheathed for a long time was instantly covered with a layer of cyan luster. Against these flying swords, only the most fundamental sword intent would have the best effect.
Sharp whistling sounds could be heard from all directions. Just by listening to the sounds, one could tell that there were a lot of them.
Suddenly, Zhou Tong's eyes lit up, his left hand held onto a ball of 'fuel' for lighting, while his right hand held onto the Multi Bone Sword tightly. His body was low, and his feet quickly moved, in an instant, countless of flying swords attacked together, completely covering Zhou Tong's figure.
”Haha, great, great!”
Travelling between blade and sword, Zhou Tong's expression became even more carefree. The increase in cultivation, the advancement of the [Mo Li San Jue], as well as the effects of the mysterious black energy had all made Zhou Tong feel at ease in battle. Zhou Tong had already started to gradually adapt to, and even liked this feeling of contentment.
Zhou Tong's figure did not stop until the end of the riot. However, Zhou Tong's face did not reveal the slightest hint of pain, instead, it was overjoyed as he retracted his sword with his hands behind his back. After taking in a long breath, he revealed a happy expression.
”It's really good to have a breakthrough. Even if I don't activate the Burning Soul Curse, I probably won't need much time to fight against an opponent of Luo Hui's level.”
He opened his arms and took a deep breath of the air. The carefree feeling from his entire body almost made Zhou Tong scream out. It was just that in this barren land, no one could share this joy.
”Buzz buzz!”
”Hmm?”
Just as Zhou Tong was about to leave, the sound transmission jade tablet on his body suddenly vibrated gently. With a thought, the jade tablet that had received the news was pulled out of the Sumeru Pearl by Zhou Tong. However, Zhou Tong was stunned.
”Xiao Xiao Hanqing? What business does this girl have with me? ”
Looking at the jade in his hand that was almost forgotten, Zhou Tong could not help but frown. This jade tablet was actually left behind for him when he left Xiao Hanqing's place in the Wasteland.
”About that, I suddenly remembered to tell you something. At your level of cultivation, you must always keep pressure on your Dao entry level for a few more days. Don't ask me why. ”In short, you will only benefit from listening to me.”
”Tsk, this girl, did she eat the wrong medicine?” Zhou Tong listened to the information from the sound transmission jade with a weird expression. Soon after, the jade stopped moving, causing Zhou Tong to feel helpless.
Suppressing one's cultivation in the Dao entry level? Only benefits? He felt that something was off somewhere …
”Forget it, let's talk about it in the future. Savior, tsk. I'll trust your evil spirit for now.”
In the blink of an eye, another two days had passed. As the role model who was not afraid of death or did not care about his life, Zhou Tong's journey into the depths of Jade Light Sword Tomb was nearing his destination.
After passing through the mountain, they arrived at the center of the pitch black Sword Tomb, where Zhou Tong could see everything.
It wasn't until the mountain road in front of Zhou Tong reached its end and there was a flat plain in front of him, that Zhou Tong knew that in the center area of Jade Light Sword Tomb, there was a vast plain.
If this place was widely discussed, it would probably be several times bigger than the entire Cold Sky Island. But when it truly came here, Zhou Tong finally saw the thing he wanted to see the most — — Sword Formation.
