Chapter 799: Chapter 799: Adhering to the Sword Heart, Never Forgetting One’s True Self (4th Update) Chapter 799: Chapter 799: Adhering to the Sword Heart, Never Forgetting One’s True Self (4th Update) Xue An, however, paid no heed to his words and instead rose to his feet at a leisurely pace before stretching languidly, “What a boring meal that was, good thing Yan’er and the others didn’t come! But at least, the time has finally arrived!”
The time has arrived?
What does that mean?
All the people in the hall looked at each other in confusion.
Just then,
the ground beneath them suddenly started to tremble violently, and nature’s spiritual energy began to grow restless.
“This is…” Ling Xiao from Jile Hall exclaimed in shock, “The treasure is opening!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the venue was taken aback, then they all rushed out frantically.
Sure enough.
They saw at the peak of Great Dream Mountain in the distance, a sword light shot straight into the sky, illuminating the night as if it were day.
Luo Sanchi’s face lit up with joy, golden runes appeared around him, and he soared into the sky, heading towards Great Dream Mountain.
Seeing this, Xing Dannan hurriedly shouted, “Brother Luo, wait for me!”
Luo Sanchi pointed with his hand, and Xing Dannan was also enveloped in golden runes, flying together towards the summit of Great Dream Mountain.
Ye Chongshan couldn’t help but let out a grim laugh, then with a flick of his sleeve, a dark cloud appeared beneath his feet, speeding swiftly toward the sky.
Many people were vying with each other to head towards Great Dream Mountain.
Ling Xiao said to the Jile Maiden with some urgency, “Maiden, we should hurry too! If we’re late, all our previous efforts will be in vain!”
But the Jile Maiden did not move a muscle; instead, she turned to look at Xue An, who was yawning and walking out of Jile Pavilion at a leisurely pace.
Ling Xiao, seeing this, was incredibly frustrated, “Maiden, he probably doesn’t even have Lei Dan, and he won’t be able to open the treasure even if he goes there! We should set off as soon as possible!”
The Jile Maiden, however, was unmoved and continued to stand there waiting for Xue An.
At this moment, Xue An approached and looked up at the dazzling lights flying towards the summit of Great Dream Mountain, shaking his head, “Why rush like that?”
As he spoke, Xue An winked at the Jile Maiden, “Let’s go, shall we see who gets to the top first?”
The Jile Maiden responded by blinking as well.
Xue An laughed heartily, “Liuli, follow behind!”
After saying that, Xue An took a step, and his figure disappeared on the spot, only to reappear far away in the sky.
Ling Xiao couldn’t help but be astonished.
This speed… was simply too fast!
But there was no time to think too much at this moment.
Ling Xiao followed closely behind the Jile Maiden and Xue Liuli, all heading toward the summit of Great Dream Mountain.
Great Dream Mountain, soaring as high as the firmament, was an insurmountable realm in the eyes of mortals.
But for these heavenly sect powerhouses, it was merely a matter of how long they had to fly.
And by now, the radiance in the sky had formed distinct ranks.
Flying at the forefront were naturally Luo Sanchi and Xing Dannan, whom he was escorting.
Hot on their heels was Ye Chongshan from Xiongmo Valley.
Behind them was Li Hanqing, the master of Zhanhong Building.
These people were chasing and racing, rushing madly towards the summit of Great Dream Mountain.
To arrive earlier could mean seizing the initiative and acquiring the heritage left behind by the Great Dream Sword Sovereign, who was unmatched in the world thousands of years ago.
It’s worth mentioning that the Great Dream Sword Sovereign was recognized as the foremost practitioner of Sword Dao from the ancient times to the present in the Guiyi realm.
Some even say he had surpassed the True Immortals, touching the edge of the Great Luo realm.
Such an extraordinary cultivation level from ancient to modern times meant that his heritage was naturally extraordinary.
This was also why the Three Heavens Sect and Blood Web Mountain valued it so greatly.
At this moment,
watching the sword light piercing the heavens grow ever closer, Luo Sanchi’s heart was ablaze.
Getting hold of this heritage could very likely allow him to surpass his senior brother, become Blood Web Mountain’s number one true disciple, and even defeat that guy to become the number one on the Chain of Ascendency.
By then, all the glory would be his, and what a spirited and elated moment that would be.
He was pondering in his heart.
Suddenly.
He noticed a streak of light flashing past him.
Its speed was so fast that he couldn’t react in time.
Who was that?
How could someone be that fast?
Luo Sanchi’s heart tightened, even thinking it was his own senior brother arriving, which caused the golden light around him to surge again, increasing his speed by a great margin.
Even so, the distance between him and the streak of light didn’t decrease but instead grew larger!
Luo Sanchi was shocked in his heart.
Finally.
The peak of Great Dream Mountain came into view.
And the streak of light also stopped in its tracks.
Luo Sanchi soon caught up, and when he saw who it was, he couldn’t help but be startled.
“It’s you?”
The one who had overtaken him and left him far behind was none other than Xue An.
Luo Sanchi couldn’t imagine that this man, who appeared modest in demeanor, could possess such incredible speed.
Xue An gave a slight smile, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to overtake you, but you were moving too slowly, I couldn’t be bothered to wait!”
Luo Sanchi’s expression darkened, but he didn’t respond to Xue An’s words.
In his view, the most pressing matter was to open the door to the extended treasure and be the first to enter.
As for everything else, that would be dealt with after coming out.
Therefore, he reached into his pocket and pulled out two elixirs wrapped in lightning, snorted coldly at Xue An, and crushed them in his hand.
Boom.
The two streaks of lightning covered him and Xing Dannan, then vanished within the sword light.
By then, everyone else had also arrived.
These people also carried a variety of magical artifacts or elixirs powered by lightning. Seeing that Luo Sanchi had already gone in, they all scrambled to take out their treasures, ready to act.
Xue Liuli also flew close, but her expression was panicky, “My lord, I…”
Xue Liuli didn’t have any magical artifacts with lightning power. At the auction in Profound Thunder City, her intent to purchase the Lei Zun was for this very reason.
So naturally, she was feeling rather conflicted now.
Ye Chongshan, seeing her situation, couldn’t help but let out a sly laugh, “Xue Liuli, that guy doesn’t look like he can produce a lightning elixir, but I have plenty here. If you’re willing to come over to me, I can help you enter the treasure right now, how about it?”
Xue Liuli didn’t even give him a glance.
At that moment, the Jile Maiden also looked at Xue An with puzzlement before taking out a lightning elixir and preparing to hand it to him.
Xue An waved his hand with a smile, “No need! I have my own!”
As he spoke, Xue An turned his hand, and the flat-bottomed pan appeared in it.
He had borrowed it from An Yan before coming here.
“This thing really comes in handy!”
Xue An weighed the pan for a moment, smiled slightly, and then shouted, “Liuli, get ready!”
Xue Liuli was stunned, not understanding the meaning, but quickly prepared herself.
Just then, Xue An waved his hands.
A massive bolt of lightning instantly enveloped Xue Liuli.
Xue Liuli was startled, suddenly recalling how outside Profound Thunder City, Xue An’s wife had used this very pan to send Gao Xinghai flying.
So the Lei Zun had already been refined into this magical artifact!
As Xue Liuli considered this in her heart, she felt the light and shadows around her change and saw she was about to enter the treasure.
She heard Xue An’s indifferent voice by her ear, “Remember, uphold the heart of the Sword Dao, never forget your true essence!”
