At the foot of Mount Tai was a small city in Shandong, outside a Guanlin Temple.
A few players with low qi realms had morbidly pale faces. They sat outside Guanlin Temple with gloomy looks on their faces.
"This is bad."
"In the next month, our abilities will be reduced by 20%, and our speed of leveling up will be slowed down again. Looks like we can only go to low-end mountain strongholds to kill mountain bandits."
"Boss, didn't you say that your goal is to become the strongest in the world?"
One of them stared at the man who was gritting his teeth in a mocking manner. "I heard that the two strongest players in the game are fighting at Mount Tai right now, and they haven't died even when they were at our level."
"Shut up!"
The man glared at him, and his face was full of disdain. "Hmph! What do you know? Don't you know that there's an old saying that if you want to achieve great things, the heavens must first torture your will and work your muscles and bones? Our chance is here. Everyone, hurry up and farm money this month. We'll get grade two masterpieces to wear. At that time, we'll be second-class players in the game! "
"Grade two masterpieces also cost a lot of money. Besides, who doesn't have a refined masterpiece now? And you call yourself a second-class player? No matter how hard you work, you won't be able to become a second-class player. Young Hole, do you remember that even though you won against us in rock-paper-scissors last time, we'll only be your lackeys for a month. After this month, if we don't stand out, it'll be my turn to be the boss," a man reminded him with a smile.
"Go to hell! I'm here with you! In one month, I guarantee that I'll be able to make all of you stick to the wall. At that time, I'll definitely bring you to live a good life. Perhaps even Happy and One Emperor will be dragged down from their pedestals. "
"Haha, you?"
The group of youngsters who were in low spirits started fooling around with each other.
At that moment, the door to Guanlin Temple opened with a creak, and it attracted their attention.
"Haha, who's so unlucky to come and join us at this time?" The person called Young Hole had a pretty good attitude. He had died once in the game, but he could still find joy in his misery.
The two people who walked out of Guanlin Temple were naturally Happy and One Emperor. The two of them had meditated in Guanlin Temple, and they had already recovered by a large margin. Not only was there no sign of the weakness and paleness of those who died on their faces, they looked incredibly energetic. They walked down the stairs with majestic gait, and Small Hole and the others instantly widened their eyes and mouths. They pointed at the duo, but they could not say a single word even after a long time had passed.
"I owe you two favors this time. How am I supposed to repay you?"
Of the two people walking side by side, one of them was dressed in a neat and luxurious black-bordered brocade robe. His cold and heroic face had an unusually relaxed smile on it. When the two of them were combined together, it was unusually harmonious, yet it had its own formless majesty.
"One … One Emperor …"
Small Hole and the others subconsciously shrank into a corner and tried to widen the distance between them to look at the top player on Dragon Rank and the legendary player he had just said that he wanted to bring down. They sucked in sharp breaths.
The others were also terrified. Their gazes were fixed on the man in Golden Armor beside One Emperor. There were countless intersecting sword gashes on his body, and there was a very eye-catching sword hole at the spot where his heart was. They had seen his face countless times in battle replays.
He was the second clan master of Mu Clan, which was rumored to be the strongest player in the world, and he had occupied the top spot on the Famous People Rank for a long period of time.
'These two people …'
'Why did they come out of Guanlin Temple?'
The group's thoughts were a little rigid.
They watched the duo slowly walk down the stairs with dumbfounded expressions. They could not understand why these two people, who were supposed to be enemies fighting to the death at the summit of Mount Tai, could get along as well as talk to each other as if they were old friends?
"I have to thank you for your gift as well. That's the item at the top of Divine Weapon Rank. Seven Swords … Heh heh, the seventh slash of Fatal Thirteen Swords is already this powerful, and even ghosts and gods will flee from it. If I have the chance in the future, I'd like to experience the eighth slash you just understood and the subsequent sword techniques."
Happy laughed heartily.
Just a moment ago, the duo had already talked and laughed for a while in Guanlin Temple. Not only had he used Fire Qilin Blood to heal his internal injuries, he had also increased his qi by twenty points.
One of the two favors One Emperor mentioned was Fire Qilin Blood, and the other was Happy's help, which allowed him to regain consciousness at the final moment and see the indistinct shadow of the eighth slash.
Happy was also incredibly proud and excited.
To him, it was a pretty good result to be able to fight against One Emperor while both of them were heavily injured.
In his previous life, no one could fight against One Emperor.
In this life, he only used one year to reach One Emperor's level.
Even though One Emperor had become stronger because of him and his speed had also increased, Happy was already very happy and satisfied.
The others could not understand Happy's feelings.
At that moment, Happy had already completely forgotten about Heaven Crystal, which he had left at the summit of Mount Tai. He also cast everything that happened at the summit of Mount Tai to the back of his mind.
It was the same for One Emperor.
"It's just a vague technique. Right now, I can't even completely master the seventh slash. I'll need at least a few months to master the eighth slash." He stopped talking for a moment before he added, "But with the increase of twenty qi points, I should be able to progress a little more smoothly."
"That's good. Let's find some time in the future and spar again."
When he heard this, One Emperor instantly laughed.
"Forget it. You're now in Moksha Realm, and your strength has increased by leaps and bounds! I only have 530 qi points right now. With my current speed, even if I give up on understanding Fatal Sword Technique and enter Moksha Realm, I'll need at least half a year. At the very least, I won't let you turn the tables so easily, and you can forget about winning against me so easily. "
"Haha!"
Happy laughed. Naturally, he knew that One Emperor was joking.
Even though he had smoothly entered Moksha Realm, training Moksha Realm martial arts was much harder than Life and Death Realm. If he wanted to truly use them, he would need at least a few months.
Besides, both of them knew that their martial arts did not rely on increasing their qi realms, but on the killing moves they understood through various fortuitous encounters.
If they fought against each other, in the end, they would end up in the same situation.
When they reached their level, unless something happened to one of them and they could not increase their strength for a long period of time, it would be very difficult for them to win without suffering any losses.
…
Under Small Hole and the others' gazes, the duo slowly left Guanlin Temple and walked out of the city.
…
"There's something I can't help but ask."
"You want me to join Mu Clan?"
"Alright, I think I already know your answer." Happy smiled wanly. It was just as Silver Wolf said. A person at One Emperor's level would not be trapped by any organization, even if it was an organization in the virtual world.
One Emperor smiled before he suddenly put on a stern expression. "In truth, there's something you might already know. Soon, there will be a huge change in the game."
"What change?"
"All sorts of things …"
One Emperor looked at the horizon and let out a long sigh. "There are some people who are attracted to the game by people like us."
"Hmm?" Happy looked puzzled.
One Emperor did not explain in detail.
He just said faintly, "You'll know in the future. The great benefits hidden in the game will make the entire game even more complicated and brutal. You must be prepared."
"Brutal, huh?"
When he heard One Emperor's reminder, Happy suddenly fell into a daze for some reason.
