Chapter 674: A Good Sword
Previously, the Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure’s phantoms severely injured around eighty players. Some of those who were weaker had even been killed.
It was a testament to how powerful a Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure was.
And he finally understood how Xiran could a.s.sume rank 17 on the Tianji Leaderboard when she was just a run-of-the-mill player.
“The Spiritual Treasure has appeared!” Yelled out Li’er.
Jiang Feng, who wanted to ask Xiran something else about the Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure, was stunned and he turned around to look at where the Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure was going to appear.
Whoos.h.!.+
At this time, he then saw a shaft of light come out from the giant crack in the earth. The shaft of light was very dense, and he could see the figure of a sword within.
The sword was slowly floating upward with an overbearing aura as a crown flew around on top of it. It was magnificent.
“The Spiritual Treasure is mine! I will kill whoever wants to take it from me!” At this time, Lingjie, an elite ranked 59th on the TIanji Leaderboard rushed over with a sword in his hand.
He was not that far away from the Feihe Sword. Once he rushed out, he leaped off the ground and into the air, heading straight toward the Feihe Sword.
“If you want to grab the Spiritual Treasure, then you have to go through me first!” Before Lingjie could even get close to the Feihe Sword, a werewolf stepped forward with a pair of sharp claws pointing straight at Lingjie.
His pair of claws seemed like they had been forged and looked like metal. They were even glistening.
“That is Sharenlang, 49th on the Tianji Leaderboard. He has already reached Black Realm Nine Stars. I heard that he wouldn’t think twice about killing others. He’s a very ruthless thug!”
“His pair of claws has been forged and is extremely sharp, and it could be compared with a Low-Yellow Rank Post-Creation Absolute Artifact. It’s very powerful!”
Xiran and Li’er seemed to know who this Sharenlang was, and they began discussing it.
Sharenlang’s power was very high. If his combat rating could surpa.s.s his combat rating cap, he should be able to fight with Huaxie, who was on the 10th of the Tianji Leaderboard.
Just as Lingjie was about to grab the Feihe Sword, he managed to catch Sharenlang’s attack from the corner of his eyes. He cursed but did not give up on the Feihe Sword.
He used the sword in his right hand to block the attack from behind while his left hand stretched out toward the Feihe Sword.
Clang!
“Gah!”
Lingjie took on the attack from Sharenlang. While the claw crashed into his sword, the powerful blow still managed to slam him away. Despite being so close to obtaining the Feihe Sword, he still missed it by inches in the end and even suffered some injuries.
After taking out Lingjie, Sharenlang excitedly licked his lips as he extended his iron claw to grab the Feihe Sword.
Ding!
Just when he was about to grab the Feihe Sword, a small marble suddenly appeared and hit the length of the Feihe Sword and struck it away. Sharenlang ended up grabbing air instead.
Seeing the sword slipping from his hand, Sharenlang’s violent temper was instantly ignited. He then angrily yelled at where the marble came from, “Who the h.e.l.l dares to get in my way?! You have a death…”
However, he stopped halfway and his face turned pale.
There was a cute boy riding on a horned tiger with a faint smile on his face in the direction of where he was looking, and he could feel s.h.i.+vers down his spine.
The little boy is Shaoqiu, ranked 9th on the Tianji Leaderboard!
“Shao… Shaoqiu, I’m… So sorry, I was…” Sharenlang looked at Shaoqiu and apologized. Unfortunately, before he could even finish, a b.l.o.o.d.y hole had appeared on his forehead. His two-thousand worth of HP was instantly depleted as his body slowly fell onto the ground.
Hiss…
Everyone that was present and saw this moment could not help but gasped.
He instantly killed someone with two thousand HP.
And the person that was instantly killed was an elite on the Tianji Leaderboard. If it were some other random people, he could probably kill them one by one with just one attack.
When Jiang Feng saw Shaoqiu’s attack, his body trembled.
He only had 600 worth of HP. If he were to face Shaoqiu, he would be on the receiving end of a beating.
“Don’t be afraid. He is just using this attack to warn everyone here. He can’t deal such a high damage every time. While he was on the 9th rank, he can only deal around 900 damage each hit. The only reason that he could deal such a high damage is because of a Mysticism that he is trained in!” Xiran said to Jiang Feng with a smile when she sensed that his breathing had become shallow.
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at Xiran and said, “I can’t handle 900 too.”
Xiran smiled and then said to Jiang Feng, “Let’s go. Grab the Feihe Sword!”
“Do you think that both of us can grab the Feihe Sword from under Shaoqiu’s watchful eyes?” Jiang Feng asked.
“I suppose so since his target should be the same as mine. He’s not here for the Feihe Sword,” Xiran said.
“What is your target?”
“Not sure yet.”
“You don’t know what you’re looking for? Stop pulling my legs.”
…
Xiran smiled but did not respond, and Jiang Feng was quite dispirited because of that.
He had finally felt the distance between their powers now.
Those who were powerful had their own social circle, while those that were not had their own. If he wanted to know what they were up to, he needed to reach the level of an elite too.
Just like when he was back in Divine Dominions. Most of the other players were basically unaware of what he was doing, but they were still quite curious about it. That was why they simply followed him down into the Bottomless Pit.
And this felt terrible!
‘No, I have to increase my power as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’ll be missing out on all the resources!’ Jiang Feng thought to himself as he left the cave. Together with Li’er and the Lunar Wolf King, he then followed Xiran and rushed toward the Feihe Sword that had been struck away by Shaoqiu.
The surrounding players were still stunned as they had yet snapped out of the moment where Shaoqiu had instantly killed Sharenlang. They did not dare to grab at the Feihe Sword, and that was why Jiang Feng and Xiran were the players closest to it.
When all the other players saw Jiang Feng, Xiran, and Li’er, they were all waiting to see how Shaoqiu was going to kill them.
But after waiting for a while and seeing that Jiang Feng, Xiran, and Li’er were getting closer and closer to the Feihe Sword, they all looked at Shaoqiu curiously when they noticed that he did not make any moves.
And they were all surprised to see Shaoqiu counting the marbles in his opened hand.
After he had finished counting, he looked up at Jiang Feng and the other two, he then shook his head. He did not attack them, but instead rushed down into the giant chasm from where the Feihe Sword flew out.
Wherever the Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure appeared, they would always be accompanied by herbs, ores, or other rare treasures.
When the nearby players and elites saw Shaoqiu jump into the chasm, they also glanced at Jiang Feng. In the next second, the thousands of players split into two.
One group headed down the chasm to look for rare treasures, while the other group was going to grab the Feihe Sword.
“Got it!”
Jiang Feng quickly used Expeditious Steps when he was not too far from the Feihe Sword. He grabbed at the Feihe Sword that was gouged into the ground and pulled it out from the ground.
Shriek!
The moment he grabbed the Feihe Sword, the call of a crane could be heard from inside the Feihe sword.
“What a good sword!” Jiang Feng said excitedly as he gave it a gentle stroke.
