"He didn't fall in? How did he do it? "Su Yi was overjoyed as he said excitedly.
The bullet screen was already in an uproar. People were discussing why Ming Xiu didn't fall into the lake. Previously, there had been human experts who had attempted to clear the level, but the moment they entered the Lake of Fog, they inexplicably fell into the lake and died immediately.
Ming Xiu was actually able to fly above the Lake of Fog. This itself was already a pleasant surprise.
"That fellow named Ming Xiu is something! Why haven't I heard of him before? "
"Ignorant and inexperienced. He is an expert from our East District, the famous Tomorrow Swordsman."
"What's there to be smug about? We haven't even left the Lake of Fog."
...
People were engaged in a flurry of discussion. The names of Ming Xiu and Tomorrow Swordsman quickly spread throughout the Federation. Even many factions in the dimension were paying attention to this challenge.
Ming Xiu rode on his sword, flying slowly over the misty lake.
Suddenly, his posture changed. He brandished his sword, and his movements were still gentle and slow. However, there was nothing where he swung his sword.
After that, Ming Xiu brandished his sword several times, but he didn't hit anything. People were baffled.
"What is he doing? Is he performing? " Many people were puzzled. They couldn't see the meaning of brandishing the sword in such a manner. They only felt that it was like a sword dance performance.
Professor Gu, who hadn't commented for a long time, seemed to understand something. He said excitedly, "Amazing, truly amazing!"
"Professor Gu, are you illustrating?" Su Yi looked at Professor Gu in puzzlement.
"Of course." Professor Gu continued excitedly, "Tomorrow Swordsman indeed lives up to his reputation. I have to take back what I said previously. His sword technique has already transcended the ordinary sword technique and reached an unprecedented height. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's the best sword technique I've ever seen."
"Professor Gu, can you please explain in detail what makes Tomorrow Swordsman's sword technique strong?" Su Yi continued.
"In the past, many human experts have speculated about the Fog Lake. Most of them believe that the Fog Lake itself has a powerful suction force. Creatures that don't reach a certain level of strength will be sucked into the Fog Lake the moment they enter. However, after seeing the performance of Tomorrow's Swordsman, I finally understood that my previous conjectures were wrong. The Lake of Fog itself does not have any suction. What truly pulls creatures to the bottom of the lake is not the suction of the lake water, but an invisible creature, "Professor Gu said seriously.
"Invisible creatures?" Su Yi looked at the lake again in surprise, but he still didn't find anything. He said doubtfully, "If there really is a creature hiding in the lake to attack the challenger, even if it can't be seen with the naked eye, the lake should have some reaction, right? But now, it seems that there are no ripples on the surface of the lake. It is as calm as a mirror. How did that creature rush out of the water to attack the challenger? "
"It is because there are no ripples in the lake that I was misled earlier. It was only when Tomorrow Swordsman appeared that I discovered a clue. That creature in the water is an existence that can move freely in the water without affecting the water flow. But pay attention, don't look at the water surface. Pay attention to the surrounding mist when the swordsman swings his sword tomorrow … Not beside the sword, but somewhere further away from the sword … "
After Professor Gu's reminder, when people took a closer look, they suddenly saw something unusual.
Every time Ming Xiu swung his sword, a small vortex would appear in the fog not far from where the sword was swung. If one did not look carefully, they would think that it was the airflow caused by the sword swings.
However, after careful observation, the direction of the vortex and the airflow caused by the sword swings were obviously different.
The more Professor Gu said, the more excited he became. "Although we can't see what the creature is, every swing of Tomorrow Swordsman's sword can make it retreat without a fight. It is obvious that he has sealed off the attack route of the creature. It looks like a slow sword swing, but it is exquisite and flawless judgment and sealing... This person is really too strong... I can't imagine how he did it..."
After Professor Gu's explanation, the average person gradually understood. The more they watched, the more they felt that Ming Xiu was indeed extremely powerful. His image in people's hearts gradually rose.
"I never expected there to be such a powerful swordsman among us humans!"
"This Tomorrow Swordsman is really strong and ferocious. He's many times stronger than the spokespersons of the six families. Look at those fellows. They don't even dare to clear the stage. He directly stormed in."
"From today … No … From now on … Ming Xiu is my idol...
Everyone watched as Ming Xiu tore through the waves like a sword immortal and passed through the thick fog. In the distance, they could vaguely see the lake shore and the golden apple tree. They immediately became excited.
"Those young people grow up very quickly." Zhang Chunqiu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the scene on the Magic Cube.
"You make it sound like you're very old. You're not much older than them," Xia Liuchuan said with a twitch of his lips.
"I'm not old, but my heart is old," Zhang Chunqiu said indifferently.
"There are benefits to being old. This world doesn't just need the courage of youth," Xia Liuchuan said.
"But that's the spiritual pillar that humans need," Zhang Chunqiu said.
Just as Zhang Chunqiu had said, the moment Ming Xiu's feet landed on the ground, many people watching the livestream around the world cheered in unison.
Although many people didn't know who Ming Xiu was, at that moment, Ming Xiu seemed to be their family or even an incarnation. They felt the same joy.
Ming Xiu held his sword and walked towards the golden apple tree step by step. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he slashed at the top of one of the golden apples.
When everyone thought that humans were finally about to take down the first golden apple, they heard the sound of metal clashing. The thin branch actually blocked Ming Xiu's sword without any damage.
Everyone was alarmed. Previously, when they saw the aliens easily pluck the golden apples, they thought that they were easy to pluck. They never expected them to be so hard.
Ming Xiu slashed at the apple stalk again and again. After slashing it more than ten times, he was actually unable to damage it in the slightest. His forehead was already covered in sweat, and even his breathing had become very heavy. Everyone who saw this was shocked.
Is the difference between humans and aliens really that great? Many humans couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.
"Humans are ultimately too weak. So what if they can walk to the front of the golden tree? They still can't do anything." The girl, who was originally a little worried, secretly heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this scene. She looked at Zhou Wen provocatively.
Just as the girl said that, she saw Ming Xiu take two steps back. He didn't continue swinging his sword. He only held it with one hand and stared intently at the golden apple hanging on the branch.
In the next second, Ming Xiu suddenly brandished his sword again. However, this time, his swing was even slower than before. It moved towards the golden apple on the branch inch by inch.
"Can such a slow sword slash down the golden apple?" Su Yi asked curiously. This was also the answer that all humans wanted to know.
When the blade of the sword came into contact with the tree branch, everyone felt as if they were in a trance. For some reason, the sword actually passed through the tree branch and arrived behind the Golden Apple.
Crack!
Just as everyone was wondering what had happened, the branch snapped with a crisp sound. The golden apple fell and was grabbed by Ming Xiu with one hand.
Humans finally had their first golden apple.
Not long after, the scene on the Rubik's Cube changed. The dimensional zone vanished and was replaced by the Rubik's Cube ranking. A new name appeared on the ranking. However, when people saw the name clearly, they widened their eyes and couldn't help but open their mouths for a long time.
