Chapter 221 - Critical Points
After a long while, Mu Yan and Gu Ying tried their best to suppress the antic.i.p.ation and excitement in their hearts, and drank a small mouthful of the "True Fire Spirit Spring Water", and refined it again.
In the deepest parts of this "Mazy Sword Valley", every once in a while, a new sword stone would appear beside Tang Huan.
As the time limit approached, Tang Huan was completely immersed within it, and he did not notice the pa.s.sage of time in the slightest.
Without realizing it, the night had pa.s.sed and dawn had arrived. Following that, a red sun had appeared in the sky. Without realizing it, the sun had risen into the sky.
At the sword hilt of the hundred and eight sword stones, Feng Ming who was lying on the ground as if he had fallen asleep suddenly opened his eyes, and took a glance around. Not only were Mu Yan and Gu Ying gone, Xiao Budian and the Rainbow Spirit Mouse had also gone missing, they were probably running inside.
Feng Ming stuck out her red and tender tongue and licked her lips. Her pair of big dark eyes revealed a look of joy.
Immediately after, her small body nimbly flipped over as she tiptoed towards the wooden box called "Spirit Severing Tree" that was placed under a large sword stone not far away.
The wooden box was opened soundlessly.
Phoenix Stone, Phoenix Feather, Phoenix Flame Essence, Scorching Sun Stone, Dragon Crystal, Indestructible Brilliant Gold … Everything in the box was priceless, except for the Sunscorch Stone.
Glancing around once more, Feng Ming grabbed onto a feather and quickly sucked it, her small face revealing a satisfied expression.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
But right at this moment, Feng Ming only felt a rainbow of light flash before his eyes, and the phoenix feather was pulled out of his mouth by an immense force.
"Little brat!"
Feng Ming immediately understood what was going on. In the blink of an eye, he turned to look, only to see that a few metres away, the Rainbow Spirit Mouse was squatting beside a sword stone. Its small body was trembling intensely, as if it was laughing, and its sharp mouth held a feather-like object.
"This is mine!"
Feng Ming shouted as he gnashed his teeth. He flung off his slender limbs and angrily chased after it, wanting to s.n.a.t.c.h back that phoenix feather.
Just as she ran a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something, she suddenly turned around, only to see that the box that was just opened by the "Spirit Exquisite Tree" had been closed back in, while Xiao Budian was lying on top of the box, opening her mouth, laughing till she fell, laughing out loud, the lid of the box was also slapped by its two little claws until it made a thumping sound.
"Xiao Budian, it"s you again!"
Feng Ming grabbed her head with her small hands, she was simply going crazy.
Every single time, it was this d.a.m.ned little thing that was causing trouble. As for that Rainbow Spirit Mouse, it would become its little follower, completely under its command.
"Get out of my way!" Feng Ming pounced over with bared fangs and brandished claws.
"Yiya!"
Xiao Budian"s body expanded rapidly, her four wings flapped with force, and she actually floated behind Feng Ming. Swiftly diving down, her two little claws grabbed towards Feng Ming"s collar.
A sly smile appeared on Feng Ming"s face, but just as she was about to be grabbed by the collar, her small body suddenly bent down, barely dodging the attack. But just at that moment, her two tender lotus like arms quickly extended upwards and grabbed onto Xiao Budian"s back claws.
"Yiya!"
Xiao Budian was shocked, his four wings flapped even harder, and he actually flew up with Feng Ming, but after flying up to a height of one meter, it could no longer hold on, and fell together with Feng Ming. Soon after, the sound of fighting started to echo in the "Mazy Sword Valley".
Deep within the Sword Valley, Mu Yan who had just awakened from his cultivation only took a glance behind him, and did not pay any more attention to what was happening.
In the twenty odd days since she had entered the "Mazy Sword Valley", Xiao Budian, the Rainbow Spirit Mouse and Feng Ming had almost every single day to go through numerous fights, so she was already used to it.
Following that, Mu Yan"s two eyes returned to Tang Huan who was ten-odd meters in front. He could not help but feel a little nervous in his heart.
She observed where Tang Huan was standing. In front of him, there were three sword stones of varying sizes, which meant that, including the sword stone that Tang Huan was still probing, there were four more sword stones that had not drawn Spirit Map, and the "Sword Seal" between Tang Huan"s brows had been stacked to 104.
Currently, the sun high in the sky had long ago set to the west.
This was already the fifteenth day!
Mu Yan was also not sure if Tang Huan would be able to gather all one hundred and eight "Sword Seal" and complete this unprecedented feat before the time limit arrived.
At this moment, she no longer had the heart to cultivate.
Over twenty days of continuous refinement and absorption of "True Fire Spirit Spring", she had long reached the peak of the sixth step, just a moment ago, her Genuine Qi had also reached the limit of what the Spiritual Meridian could endure, but she was still a little bit away from condensing a spirit pill and advancing to Stage Seven Martial Master.
This matter could not be rushed, after all, her time to become Stage Six Martial Master was too short.
However, even if there was hope for her to break through to Stage Seven Martial Master before the sun sets, she would not be able to calm down right now.
Time flew by, and the "Sword Seal" between Tang Huan"s brows continued to increase. One hundred and five, one hundred and six, one hundred and seven …
Mu Yan raised his head to look at the sky, then looked at Tang Huan who was walking toward the last sword stone, and actually had the urge to call him over.
The final critical moment had finally arrived!
If he were to exit the "Mazy Sword Valley" now, Tang Huan could easily integrate one hundred and seven "Sword Seal" into his own soul. But if this was the case, Tang Huan would forever lose the opportunity to create such a record of 108 "Sword Seal".
For every Weapon Refiner, there was only one chance to set a record in the "Mazy Sword Valley".
Once they successfully walked out, the "Sword Seal" would merge into their soul and enter the "Mazy Sword Valley" for the second time. They would be able to walk out of the "Mazy Sword Valley" easily without trying to break the "Spirit Map" and even if they wanted to try again, the "Sword Seal" would not be imprinted between their eyebrows.
Mu Yan took a deep breath, and suppressed the fear in his heart, feeling even more nervous.
"The last sword stone!"
Gu Ying had also awoken from his cultivation, excitement that he was unable to restrain hanging between his brows, "There"s only one more, Brother Tang Huan"s gathered "Sword Seal" is one hundred and eight. Tsk, tsk, I really didn"t think that this kid would actually be able to leave such a record in the "Mazy Sword Valley" that was completely impossible to surpa.s.s."
"It"s still too early to say. The fifteen day time limit is almost up!"
Mu Yan said slowly. If he could not complete the last piece of the sword stone"s Spirit Map"s drawing before the time limit was up, the first "Sword Seal" would definitely disappear, causing all of the "Sword Seal" to collapse. If that happened, they would have to start over.
"It"s still early. There should be enough time." Gu Ying glanced at it and said casually.
"I think we should pack our things and get ready. Once Tang Huan succeeds, we can leave as fast as we can without wasting any time."
"..."
It seems that everyone is very satisfied with the "My Beautiful Chairman" that you recommended last time. Then, let me recommend you a city novel and a fantasy novel. I can search the city for "genius doctor" or "peerless martial spirit" and you can find them. Both of these books are written very brilliantly.
