BXBX NOVEL Chapter 120 - 120 Seeing Is Believing
In an instant, Lin Ran’s mind was filled with all kinds of messy thoughts. He asked, “Did you see that person on Mount Sword? The place where you came into being.”
Xiao Huai nodded, and there was actually a hint of warmth in her hollow eyes. “At that time, I had just walked out of that cave. My realm was still unstable. He helped me consolidate my cultivation and even told me to come to the secret room here to find a sword.”
Lin Ran’s heart skipped a beat. When the Ten Miles Sword God was in seclusion, he had been guarding near the seal. From the looks of it, the answer was basically certain.
However, Lin Ran still refused to believe it. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and said, “I’ll slash a sword mark. Come and see if it’s from the person you mentioned.”
Xiao Huai thought for a moment and nodded. The rattle shook twice and the swords pointed at Lin Ran retreated a few inches.
Lin Ran took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He condensed the sword energy on his fingers and waved them gently, causing a small sword mark to appear on the stone wall in front of him.
Xiao Huai stood up and walked towards the sword mark. Lin Ran lowered his head with a complicated expression, looking forward to the answer but also afraid of hearing it.
Xiao Huai said softly, “It’s not this person.”
“What?!”
Lin Ran was shocked. After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Take a closer look. Don’t you find it familiar at all?”
Xiao Huai gently stroked the sword mark for a while longer before shaking her head.
Lin Ran was stunned.
He wouldn’t go so far as to say that this sword mark completely restored the sword intent of the Ten Miles Sword God, but it at least was very close.
“Is that person not the Ten Miles Sword God?”
However, there were only a few people on Mount Sword. It couldn’t be Daoist Li, right? Did he smell like Daoist Li?
Thinking of the unkempt blind Daoist, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine.
It was true that Daoist Li was a senior that Lin Ran respected very much, but he was only in his twenties after all. He really didn’t want to smell like an unkempt old man.
“No! There’s another person!”
Lin Ran suddenly remembered that before he inherited the internal energy of the Ten Miles Sword God, he had also obtained another person’s internal energy!
Dragon Elephant Divine Master!
At that time, Lin Ran was still a mountain guardian. One time, he found a heavy sword called “Dragon Elephant” in the mountain. After wiping it, the system gave him 30% of Dragon Elephant Divine Master’s internal energy!
In Lin Ran’s body, other than his own internal energy and the remaining internal energy of the Ten Miles Sword God, there was only 30% of Dragon Elephant Divine Master’s internal energy!
“Xiao Huai! Look again and see if it’s this person!”
Lin Ran shouted hurriedly. Ignoring the sharp swords that were pointing at him, he activated his internal energy!
An extremely domineering force instantly surged through Lin Ran’s body, forcing the standard swords back a few inches!
Xiao Huai immediately nodded and shouted, “Yes, this is the person!”
“As expected!”
Lin Ran thought to himself and couldn’t help but smile.
If that mysterious person was Dragon Elephant Divine Master, then everything made sense!
“Dragon Elephant Divine Master, born in the year 203 of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. His original name was Liu Hongshan. He was born with extraordinary strength and entered the realm of Martial Master at the age of seven. At the age of 19, he became a general of the Western Garrison. At the age of 71, he entered the realm of Grandmaster and was asked to leave the army.”
“After that, he wandered the martial world and pursued extreme power. He called himself Dragon Elephant Divine Master and went into seclusion on Mount Sword at about 130 years old. After that, he disappeared without a trace.”
These were all the clues Lin Ran had found after obtaining 30% of Dragon Elephant Divine Master’s internal energy.
At that time, Lin Ran thought that Dragon Elephant Divine Master died on Mount Sword, which was why the Dragon Elephant Sword was left in the mountain. But now, it seemed that not only was Dragon Elephant Divine Master not dead, but he was very likely plotting a huge scheme!
Thinking of this, the smile on Lin Ran’s face slowly disappeared, and his aura changed.
“Put these things away.”
Lin Ran looked at the standard swords hanging in front of him and said calmly, “They can’t hurt me at all.”
“Hmph, don’t…”
Xiao Huai sneered and was about to say something when she saw Lin Ran pull off his shirt. All the skin on his upper body was covered in a layer of pitch-black liquid.
As if seeing her nemesis, Xiao Huai’s expression instantly turned ugly as she stared at Lin Ran with hollow eyes. “W-Where did this come from?”
“You should be familiar with it, right?”
As Lin Ran spoke, the black liquid on his body began to flow towards his right hand. A moment later, a slender sword slowly took shape in his hand.
Buzz—
An invisible ripple spread out, and the swords hanging in the air fell to the ground with a crisp clang.
Lin Ran held the black sword and looked at Xiao Huai coldly. “Surrender. I’ll bring you back to Mount Sword or continue to resist and die here.”
“I’m not going back! I don’t want to go back to that place!”
Xiao Huai let out a heart-wrenching cry. As the rattle drum in her hand shook crazily, a majestic aura swept out in all directions with her as the center!
Lin Ran was hit in the chest by this aura, but his expression did not change because although this aura was majestic, it was far from being “lethal” to him.
After figuring out Xiao Huai’s real strength, Lin Ran’s eyes darkened.
Previously, because of the letter of the Ten Miles Sword God, Lin Ran thought that the demon was a Half-Saint, but he had never really checked it in person.
The reason why he suddenly confronted Xiao Huai was to check her full strength— It turned out that she was only at the ninth level of the Grandmaster Realm.
With such a realm, no matter what tricks she had up her sleeve, it was impossible for her to defeat the Ten Miles Sword God, who was at the peak of the Senior Grandmaster Realm.
Now, Lin Ran was 100% sure that the Ten Miles Sword God was not killed by the demon. The demon might not even be the one who broke the Five Elements Seal. Someone was secretly plotting and facilitating all of this.
And this person was most likely Dragon Elephant Divine Master, who had been missing for hundreds of years!
