Chapter 2544 - Master’s Wife
Tianming was already familiar with the Gladean Ruins. He had already gone through all the rooms except those that were locked and he hadn’t found any sword arts.
Tianming had expected Lin Xiaodao to pa.s.s it on to him personally, but he ended up bringing Tianming to the ruins. The sword art was special and needed a certain medium within to be comprehended. It was similar to the ancestral guidance stele except there were no locks.
“If you can’t pa.s.s it down, does that mean this sword art is even better than the Grandvoid Compendium and Xiaozhi Sword Art?” Tianming curiously asked.
Orderan arts were methods that were able to join together one’s order and cosm.o.f.orce. It also used nova source’s cla.s.sification system, except that the lowest it went was low sanctuary cla.s.s. The Grandvoid Compendium and Xiaozhi Sword Art were infinitum cla.s.s, the peak of the Infinitum Mundus.
Tianming’s ability to use their second stances meant that he had far outstripped his peers in the ‘under five hundred years old’ category in terms of sword arts. His only limiting factor was his insufficient cosm.o.f.orce. He had been able to quickly defeat Fengqing Yin largely thanks to them.
Fengqing Yin had used sword arts, but their talent lay in wonders. Thus, their Brilliant Nightbreaker was far from infinitum cla.s.s and merely high sanctuary cla.s.s.
Tianming considered his s.p.a.cetime sword arts to already be the most difficult and complicated sword art in the world. He couldn’t even grasp it if Feiling wasn’t around.
Lin Xiaodao smirked. “The two reges mundi were impressive and the profundities of the s.p.a.cetime sword arts are peerless. But I believe that the ruin’s sword art trumps them in killing power.”
“Seriously?” Tianming hadn’t been too excited, but now his interest was roused. He had originally been expecting the Tenth Branch’s sword arts.
“Of course! You know as well as I do that this astrals.h.i.+p has an extraordinary origin.”
Tianming laughed. “If it"s the ruin’s sword art and you’re not teaching me? How is this considered a master and disciple moment?”
“Get lost! It"s because Master has a high opinion of you that I’m giving you a treasure. If you’re not happy, I can give you an ether-cla.s.s orderan art instead.” Lin Xiaodao rolled his eyes.
“A joke, a joke!” Tianming hurriedly admitted. Why on earth would he want the Tenth Branch’s sword arts if he had better options.
Techniques and battle arts were the foundation of cultivation. Every orderan art was the crystallization of countless seniors over millions of years. Tianming couldn’t use his two reges mundi sword arts to their full potential as he lacked s.p.a.cetime order and the Lin Clan’s swordheart. Alas, s.p.a.cetime order and a swordheart weren’t something that came easily.
Tianming suddenly had a premonition that the flameyellow divinities’ battle art would suit him even more and raise his upper limit. “I’ve learned the Ninedragon Tribulation, so I have a foundation. The flameyellow divinities are also beastmasters and totemancers, so they should have a section suited for totems!”
The Gladean Ruins weren’t needed to conquer Gladeus, so Lin Xiaodao usually left it parked at Skyhold Palace. They flew towards it together.
After they entered, Lin Xiaodao took out his green gourd. Tianming had heard him call it the Xiao Nu Gourd, which was a weird name. Weird name it may be, Tianming had still found out it was an infinitum-cla.s.s artifact.
Since Lin Xiaodao was using it to guide the way, it could also be the key to these ruins.
The two reached the tail area. This was a more remote area of the ruins and Tianming didn’t have much of an impression of here. He wasn’t impatient and just waited for Lin Xiaodao to do his thing.
Lin Xiaodao hugged the gourd by its ‘slender waist’, and spoke in a sickly sweet voice, “Xiao Nu, Xiao Nu, open the door for me.”
Tianming’s face muscles twitched.
“He wouldn’t consider that gourd his girlfriend, right?” Within the lifebound s.p.a.ce, Ying Huo was suspicious.
“Maybe, meow! Why else would he still be single at this age?” Meow Meow nodded so fast it left afterimages.
Tianming was just about to scold him when he saw Lin Xiaodao caressing the "slender waist" of that gourd. His expression was so gentle and overflowing with indulgence... Tianming suddenly felt a s.h.i.+ver down his spine, feeling creeped out.
That was just a gourd!
However, Tianming wasn’t expecting a two-dimensional image to suddenly appear on the green gourd. It was a vague silhouette, indistinctly revealing a girl with long green waist-length hair. She had large round eyes and a slightly cherry-red mouth. Though her proportions were a bit peculiar, she was truly very adorable!
“Huh, what is this? An artifact spirit? A 2D person?”
While Tianming was confused, the 2D beauty stretched lazily and pointed ahead. She sleepily said, “Big Brother Xiaodao, I’ve switched the door to being able to be regularly opened.”
“Thank you, Xiao Nu~” Lin Xiaodao’s eyes shone.
“Yes, back to sleep now.” The 2D beauty yawned before the image went back into the gourd.
“A nap buddy?” Meow Meow felt its head and legs growing heavier upon the mention of the word sleep.
“There’s nothing to do with you! This may be our master’s wife!”
