"Wonderful," Sword Eighteenth said. "And here I thought I was going to die."
As soon as Sword Eighteenth heard Ling Xiao's name, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
In the past, he had taken in Ling Xiao and protected Ling Xiao, and had never expected to get anything out of Ling Xiao.
Who could ever have guessed that Ling Xiao would save him today?
He really hadn't made a mistake in taking in this apprentice.
"Master, enough chit-chat," Sword Eighteenth said. "I came here to save you and Nine Defiance's Big Sister Lanyue.
Here are some mid-grade spirit stones, about ten thousand in total. Use them to recover your internal energy. "
Ling Xiao knew that martial artists in the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound couldn't recover their internal energy on their own. They could only rely on medicinal pills or spirit stones.
Healing Pills were a bit of a luxury, but mid-grade spirit stones were more than enough.
Sword Eighteenth didn't refuse. Taking the spirit stones, he said, "It's best if you don't let anyone else see the spirit stones.
From the third floor onward, you'll be surrounded by a bunch of lunatics. They'll kill you to get the spirit stones. "
"Don't tell me there are more than three floors in the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound?"
Ling Xiao said in shock.
"Of course there are more than three. There are five floors in total.
The fourth floor is where third division Lifeseizers are locked up, and the fifth floor is for fourth division Lifeseizers.
Dugu Batian used to fight alongside his sworn brothers, but in the end, he locked them up in here and used them as tools for his Bloodthirsty Devil Sword.
How cruel. "
The Gopher Rat King walked over. "The exit we're looking for is on the fifth floor, the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound!
That's where the only exit is. "
"You seem to know a lot about this place," Sword Eighteenth said. "I almost forgot to ask. How come you don't seem affected by the magical laws here?"
Ling Xiao said, looking curiously at the Gopher Rat King.
"To tell you the truth, I'm just a rat in the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound. It wasn't easy for me to reach my current level of cultivation.
Gopher King replied, "The laws here affect you, but it's not a problem for me. I can absorb spiritual qi from the soil."
"No wonder."
Ling Xiao nodded his head, looked at the ground beneath his feet, and said, "I can sense that Elder Sister Yanyue's aura comes from below.
Most likely, she was already in the third division of the Lifeseizing level when she came to Sword God City.
There's no time to lose. Let's go find her. "
"Yes."
Even Sword 18's life had been saved by Ling Xiao. Although he had nothing to do with Falling Moon, if Ling Xiao wanted to save someone, it was impossible for him not to help.
As for the Gopher King, he wouldn't be of much help, but the matter of leading the way still depended on him.
"Wait, there's something I have to tell you."
Gopher King suddenly said.
"What's the matter? Hurry up and say it. We're in a hurry to save people."
Ling Xiao said anxiously.
"When we reach the fourth level, we have to be careful of the Golden Rat Saint."
The Gopher King said, "The Golden Rat Sage is the same as me, a spirit born in the Bloodthirsty Sword Tomb.
However, after I was captured, it became the lackey of the Heavenly Sword Hall.
He established his own faction on the fourth level because there was a spirit stone mine on the fourth level, and it was a Bloodthirsty Spirit Stone.
The quality of the Bloodthirsty Spirit Stone is basically mid-grade.
After absorbing it, not only can one recover their inner strength, but it can also allow the martial artist to obtain the bloodthirsty ability. For a period of time, their combat strength will skyrocket without any side effects.
Therefore, the Golden Rat Emperor has always been helping the Heavenly Sword Hall manage the spirit stone mine on the fourth level.
He will take a portion of it as his reward and hand the rest to the Heavenly Sword Hall.
I reckon that if the person you're talking about is on the fourth level, then she must be enslaved by him.
If you want to save her, you have to defeat this Golden Rat Sage first. "
"Thank you for the reminder. Lead the way. You don't have to worry about the battle. When we reach the next level, I'll hide you and take care of the battle."
Ling Xiao didn't expect the Gopher King to help him fight.
With only the strength of a Sword King, the Gopher King was too weak.
When they reached the fourth level, Ling Xiao put the Gopher King into the beast ring to hide.
The Eighteenth Sword was also placed inside by Ling Xiao and given a Heavenly Tribulation Pill.
With Sword 18's current cultivation, he could no longer help Ling Xiao much.
But if he could break through, it would be different.
With Sword 18's heaven-defying experience, once he became a Sword Saint, even Sword God Dugu Bajian would have a headache.
Therefore, letting him break through was much more worth it than letting him fight.
In any case, Ling Xiao still had Little Gold with him. At the critical moment, he could just call Little Gold out.
After hiding the two, Ling Xiao went straight to the Golden Rat Sage's territory.
The fourth level was much larger than the previous levels.
And because there were more powerhouses, their auras were chaotic, so Ling Xiao couldn't capture Falling Moon's aura at this time.
He could only search one place at a time.
This first area was naturally the Golden Rat Sage's territory.
Boom!
A series of explosions made many warriors who were working hard couldn't help but look over.
They saw dozens of the Golden Rat Sage's subordinates were directly blasted away. After landing on the ground, they couldn't get up.
"I've already warned you to get the Golden Rat Sage to come out and see me. You actually dare to stop me? You're asking for a beating!"
Ling Xiao's arrogant voice sounded on the fourth level.
This attracted everyone's attention.
"Who is that person? So arrogant?"
"Probably a newcomer who just came. Sigh, speaking of which, when I was captured and brought here, I was also so frivolous and arrogant. It's a pity that I was beaten into submission not long later."
"Yeah, that Golden Rat Sage isn't afraid of the Bloodthirsty Sword Tomb's special laws at all. Who's his match?"
Right at this time, a group of people flew over. Their fierce auras made the warriors who were working lower their heads one after another, afraid that those people would misunderstand that they were slacking off.
"The Golden Rat Sage really came. That guy is in trouble!"
"Of all people to offend, he just had to offend the Golden Rat Sage. In the fourth and fifth levels of the mining area, the Golden Rat Sage is considered a top five expert."
"Probably some genius youth. He's used to being arrogant outside and doesn't know the dangers here."
Everyone discussed animatedly, and they all broke out in cold sweat for Ling Xiao.
Of course, there was no lack of gloating.
If he was unlucky, he also hoped that others would be unlucky with him.
"Insolent fanatic, how dare you behave atrociously in this Sage's territory. Tell me your name!"
The Golden Rat Sage's appearance was very wretched, and he really did look a little repulsive.
He floated in the air and looked down at Ling Xiao from above, asking fiercely.
"The Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor!"
Ling Xiao said indifferently, "You're the Golden Rat Sage, right? Have you seen Nine Defiants' Falling Moon?"
"Hahaha, so you're here for that woman. She's already become my wife. Tsk, tsk. That's a good feeling."
The Golden Rat Sage laughed and said, "If you kneel down and beg me, I might let you see her. Hahahaha."
"It's fine if you're joking, but if it's true, just wait to be cut into pieces!"
Ling Xiao's face suddenly darkened, and a terrifying killing intent filled the air.
"You're courting death!"
A person beside the Golden Rat Sage roared. "How dare you disrespect our boss. Watch me cut you into pieces!
