On the boundless desolate land, there were countless people whose faces couldn't be seen clearly. Their bodies were covered in golden light, and they knelt on one knee. They lowered their heads in a submissive posture, like a golden wheat field that covered the land.
In the middle of the golden wheat field stood a black-haired youth. The youth wore a golden crown and a black and white robe. Every move he made exuded a dignified aura.
"You vow to be This King's sword for all eternity!"
The youth whispered, but it was as deafening as a clap of thunder.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
All the golden subjects responded in unison. Their voices were so loud that they resounded throughout the world.
"This body was born for the sword!"
"Steel as my body, and flames as my blood!"
Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even millions of golden humans who knelt on one knee swore in unison. It was so loud that the world changed colors. Haze gradually covered the sun, and the world fell into darkness.
"To serve Your Majesty by your side."
"To cross countless battlefields without being defeated."
"To never taste defeat."
Thunder boomed in the sky as strong winds howled across the land. However, they were all drowned in the mighty aura, like a tiny river being swallowed by the ocean.
"Where Your Majesty's sword points, Your Majesty's heart will follow!"
As soon as he said that, rays of golden light shot into the sky from the countless humans. They turned into golden pillars of light that pierced through the sky, piercing through the dark clouds in the sky and illuminating the world.
"We swear that in this life, for all eternity, we are willing to be the sword of our king! To slay Your Majesty's enemy! "
The deafening voice resounded through the sky. The countless beams of golden light suddenly shrank into a thin line before disappearing without a trace.
At this moment, only the crowned young man was left on the vast land. The countless golden humans had vanished a long time ago, and what replaced them were swords that covered the mountains and plains!
All sorts of treasured swords stabbed into the ground. As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of swords!
"Swords, come!"
With the youth's call, all the swords began to tremble violently before soaring into the sky.
Countless swords gathered in the center of the sun. One by one, they fused together, finally forming an invisible sword that only had a hilt and no blade!
The one and only sword forged from a million swords fell from the sky and floated towards the crowned youth.
The youth stretched out his hand to grasp the hilt of the sword, and a clear sword chime rang out. The chime was filled with respect, love, and joy.
This sword was formless, but it had a heart!
"Split the Heavens! Earth Splitting! "
The young man held the hilt of the sword with both hands and raised it above his head. He tilted his body slightly and slashed at the sky and earth!
The sword rose and fell.
The earth immediately split open from where the sword landed, forming a bottomless abyss that was tens of miles wide and thousands of miles long.
The sky was suddenly split into two halves. One half was bright while the other half was dark.
The young man sheathed his sword. His eyes were calm as he looked at the distant horizon, as if he was looking at another world.
Suddenly, an energetic voice resounded in the world.
"I'm back! Shi Xiaobai, quickly get up and welcome me! "
The youth was stunned, and a glimmer of light flickered in his calm eyes.
"The sun is shining on your butt, and you're still sleeping! Shi Xiaobai, are you a pig!? "
The voice that filled the heavens and earth rang out again. The youth with the crown frowned slightly.
"If you don't get up, I'm going to punish you!"
The youth opened his mouth slightly as he constantly turned to look at the sky. A hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
"Hmph, you forced me to make a move!"
The moment the voice faded, the entire world began to shake. The youth raised his sword as though he was about to slash down, but he suddenly felt his nose itch. After he gave an "Achoo", the world turned into darkness. In this darkness, he could not help but open his eyes.
After opening his eyes, in his hazy vision, he saw a fair hand holding a flower petal. It was using the tip of the flower petal to gently harass his nose.
"Hmph, you are finally awake, Little Lazy Pig."
Slightly turning his head, he saw a face with exquisite facial features, as well as a ponytail that he had not seen in a long time.
"Violent Girl?"
Shi Xiaobai's groggy consciousness, which had just woken up, finally began to wake up.
When Riko heard the words "Violent Girl", she was slightly surprised. Out of habit, she raised her fist and punched at Shi Xiaobai's head.
Shi Xiaobai had been cultivating Crab Steps over the past few days, and dodging had become an instinct. At this moment, how could he not dodge such an ordinary punch? He tilted his head slightly and easily dodged the punch.
Riko's punch missed and was slightly stunned. Without thinking too much, she mumbled, "Yo, you have learned to dodge after not seeing me for half a month."
Riko wanted to continue bickering, but she saw Shi Xiaobai slowly reveal a smile.
"Welcome back. This King missed you very much …"
Shi Xiaobai's voice was extremely gentle.
Riko's pupils constricted slightly as she suddenly felt a tingling sensation in her heart.
So after running around outside for more than half a month, to have someone say "Welcome back, I missed you very much" was such a feeling. It was sour, sweet, and somewhat blissful.
"Your culinary skills."
Shi Xiaobai grinned as he waved his hand and urged, "So quickly go cook. This King is a little hungry."
The blissful smile that Riko had just bloomed froze instantly. Her eyes that had softened halfway immediately froze.
"Shi! Xiao! Bai! "
Riko was infuriated. "Quickly return my touching feelings!"
…
…
Thirty minutes later.
"Eat up, Little Lazy Pig."
Riko placed the rice in front of Shi Xiaobai as a smile suffused across her lips. Regardless, Shi Xiaobai liked the food she cooked, so he felt a tiny sense of accomplishment.
Yes, just a tiny bit.
Shi Xiaobai looked at the four dishes and soup on the table and immediately began wolfing it down. As he had been in virtual immersion for seven consecutive days, he had exhausted too much of his energy. He had slept for three days, so he was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back.
"Aiyah, how long have you been hungry? Don't eat so quickly. It's not good for your stomach."
Riko smiled when she saw Shi Xiaobai wolfing down the food. Following that, she picked up her cell phone and began reading the news from the past few days.
She had not paid attention to the news and current affairs for some time, so it was rare for her to be free.
Riko scanned through the headlines, but most of them were content that she was not interested in.
The hottest news was obviously related to the two factions' collective training. However, this matter was so popular that Riko, who did not pay attention to the news, had long heard of it from others.
She was no longer a rookie, so she did not care too much about it. The only rookie she was familiar with in [Gaia] was Shi Xiaobai, but from her point of view, no matter how much of a genius Shi Xiaobai was, he was still too far behind. It was difficult for him to even pass the organization's internal selection, much less pass the organization's final selection to obtain the qualifications for the collective training.
Hence, Riko did not want to understand the two factions' collective training in depth.
Suddenly, Riko's fingers that were flipping down paused slightly.
A headline appeared in front of her eyes.
"China's Yaris, a godly person who cultivated Crab Steps to the Dominating Refinement at the third level of the Psionic Mortal Realm!" (To be continued.)
