"Lanruo Temple … I didn't expect to encounter such a background."
Ji Ye stood in front of the "Lanruo Temple" stone tablet that was covered in dust and vines.
This was clearly not the unfamiliar World of Providence that he had thought at first.
It could even be said that for most people in Chidragon, the background of this world was very familiar.
Ning Caichen, Yan Chixia, and Nie Xiaoqian!
However, this didn't seem to be a World of Providence that the Twin Dragon Mount fort should have come to with its current strength.
Although he couldn't be absolutely sure, judging from the gray wolves and the style of Lanruo Temple, this Battlefield of Providence should be based on the movie A Chinese Ghost Story, not the Xiaoqian chapter in the original novel of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio.
It also meant that there were "thousand-year-old demons" like Granny Tree Demon and Old Demon Black Mountain in this World of Providence.
Even in many novels, a thousand-year-old demon would still be no match for an old Daoist priest who had cultivated for decades.
In particular, the original forms of these two were a tree and a mountain. They were both the kind that cultivated very slowly.
However, the demonic power accumulated over a thousand years would probably reach at least Extraordinary Rank-8 or Rank-9 even if it didn't reach the Transcendent level.
At present, even if he included the time he spent cultivating with EXP, it was equivalent to cultivating for a few years at most. The difference between the two was probably too big.
Therefore, the only explanation should be that according to the purple-clothed shopkeeper, what appeared in the Battlefield of Providence was only a projection, and its strength was lower than before.
Even thousand-year-old bosses like Granny Tree Demon and Old Demon Black Mountain shouldn't be too overpowered.
Moreover, it was very likely that there was a "hero" that belonged to his camp in this abandoned temple.
As long as they weren't careless, there shouldn't be any danger for the two of them.
"Chief Lu, it seems that we don't have to sleep outdoors tonight!"
Therefore, facing the famous Lanruo Temple, Ji Ye was not afraid. He even said to Lu Zhishen, "You can leave now, but stay nearby for the next few days.
"You can leave now, but stay nearby for the next few days. Don't stray too far from me!"
Understanding that the gray wolves behind him were probably afraid of the demonic aura in the temple, Ji Ye got the husky to lead the wolf pack away from the entrance of Lanruo Temple. Then, he entered Lanruo Temple with Lu Zhishen with the Black Serpent Sword in hand.
[You have entered Lanruo Temple and obtained the first mission of your faction: Kill the enemy faction's Netherworld General, Black Mountain!]
When the two of them stepped through the entrance of the temple, a message appeared in their minds.
"En, Netherworld General, Black Mountain!
"Shouldn't it be Old Demon Black Mountain?"
Ji Ye was stunned.
Then, information about Black Mountain appeared in his mind.
Hei Shan was once the Northern Great General of the Southern Sun Kingdom. He was highly skilled in martial arts and once led three thousand guards to defeat fifty thousand elite soldiers of the Western Desert Kingdom!
Nanyang Kingdom?
Western Desert Country?
Without a doubt, this was definitely not a place in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
Well, he was a little excited because he had confirmed the background. For a moment, he forgot that this was a Battlefield of Providence that belonged to two, or even more, human civilizations, and not a pure world of A Chinese Ghost Story.
Therefore, in this world, he could not completely treat it like the plot in the movie.
For example, the ones who chased Ning Caichen into Lanruo Temple were three wolves that stuck out their tongues, wagged their tails, and barked. However, what they had just encountered were more than ten giant wolves that ordinary people could not defeat.
This was very likely a trap set up by the power of providence that belonged to the enemy's camp.
If it were an ordinary player, they might have been eliminated by the wolves at the beginning of the battle!
However, the enemy's power of providence did not expect him to have the Alpha Wolf's Mark. Therefore, the wolves that had been specially strengthened became a piece of "fat meat" that came knocking on his door!
Of course, this was only Ji Ye's one-sided guess, and it was difficult to verify it at the moment.
However, Ji Ye estimated that the "confrontation" of these powers of providence should have been completed before the entire battlefield began. It was unlikely that they could directly interfere with the competition between the two sides!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
When the two of them turned around a half-collapsed wall of the temple …
The first thing they saw was a figure dancing with a sword under the moonlight!
Hum, hum, hum …
A hand full of calluses held a longsword that looked like it was made of brass. Compared to ordinary swords, it was a little too wide.
However, when this figure waved it, it was far more agile than an ordinary swordsman!
This was because as the brass longsword waved, the leaves on the ground that were dozens of feet wide were all blown into the sky by the strong wind produced by the sword.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
As the figure moved at high speed and kept waving the brass longsword, not a single one of the thousands of leaves that were flying in the air fell to the ground!
"What a brilliant swordsmanship!"
Lu Zhishen's eyes were filled with surprise.
"It's indeed brilliant, but how could Yan Chixia have such a brilliant swordsmanship?"
Ji Ye nodded.
There was no need to say anything else. In this Lanruo Temple, there was still someone who dared to practice swordsmanship at night.
In theory, this was the only hero whose true strength was likely to reach the Transcendent realm!
"Right, it does seem to be so."
Recalling the plot of A Chinese Ghost Story, Ji Ye understood why Yan Chixia's swordsmanship was so amazing.
In A Chinese Ghost Story, Yan Chixia was definitely a representative of many talents and abilities.
Not only was he a ruthless judge who was famous in the 26 provinces of Guandong, Guangxi, and Guangxi, he also had a Daoist technique that could defeat a thousand-year-old demon. His swordsmanship also had a history.
When Ning Caichen first came to Lanruo Temple, he defeated the swordsmen who competed with him for the title of "Best Sword in the World" for seven consecutive years. He even taught them the principles of swordsmanship.
In other words, he was very likely to be the "best swordsman" in this world, or at least the top!
"I can totally ask Yan Chixia for advice on swordsmanship. He's definitely a better choice than Zhou Zhiruo!"
Ji Ye had a thought.
Even though Yan Chixia's level had decreased, his understanding of swordsmanship would definitely not decrease by much.
Moreover, his swordsmanship was a path that emphasized fighting with humans, killing demons, and ghosts.
To Ji Ye, it was definitely very suitable.
