Before Yi Yun entered the sword tomb, he had changed into a white gown, but today, it had become tattered once again.
His long robe was not dirty, but it looked as if it had been cut by a sword. It was cut by cut, almost turning into rags.
Yi Yun's hair was disheveled and he had a faint smile on his face. His eyes were bright and in the dark sword tomb, they were like the stars in the sky, giving people a strange feeling.
It was as if the Yi Yun after entering the sword tomb was different from the Yi Yun a few days ago.
This different feeling was indescribable. It was like a change in temperament. A sword Qi was infused into Yi Yun's bones, making Yi Yun feel like he was a sword.
"Kid, you've finally come out!"
Cang Yan said with dissatisfaction.
"Hmm, I've been immersed in it for so long that I've lost track of time. How long have I been inside?"
"It's almost nine days. You brat, are you really planning to cultivate the sword?"
Cang Yan scrutinized Yi Yun. He did not know how much Yi Yun had gained insight into the way of the sword over the past few days. However, from Cang Yan's point of view, even if Yi Yun had gained insight into some sword moves in the sword tomb, it was useless. If a sword could achieve an attack, so could a saber. Therefore, there was not much meaning in cultivating both the sword and the saber at the same time.
Yi Yun did not want to continue on this topic, so he interrupted, "Senior Cang Yan, previously, you said that you wanted me to enter the top 300 of the Earth roll of honor before I could continue cultivating my Sword Dao and the Ten Thousand Beast Totem?"
Yi Yun was indeed planning on trying for the Earth roll of honor. If he ranked high on the Earth roll of honor, he would be rewarded with dragon scale runes every month.
Cang Yan rolled his eyes at Yi Yun and said with a sigh, "Now you are in trouble. Sigh, you still do not know that our Tai Ah Divine Kingdom is facing a calamity of annihilation."
As Cang Yan spoke, he roughly described the situation of the Shepherd Boy's appearance to Yi Yun.
Yi Yun was stunned hearing this.
Shepherd Boy?
Cang Yan's description of the Shepherd Boy's appearance made Yi Yun recall the mysterious youth he met in the Blackwater Swamp when he went to the Divine Wilderness for training.
The boy rode on the bull and played the piccolo. The sound of the flute seemed to have some sort of magical power that affected the minds of those who heard it.
This mysterious young man. After passing through the Divine Wilderness and Blackwater Swamp, all the desolate beasts ignored him. It was as though he was taking a stroll in the park in the Divine Wilderness. Like entering and exiting a garden.
This youth, who looked amiable and even gave people a good impression of him, had previously stirred up a bloodbath in the Western Regions, killing countless people and nearly destroying the once flourishing Shen Tu family clan?
Yi Yun was truly shocked. From Cang Yan's description, the Shen Tu family clan was much stronger than the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
One family clan, stronger than the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom
What kind of family was this?
And where was the so-called "Western Region"?
Yi Yun sighed. He had come to this world. It seemed like he had made some progress, but compared to those behemoths, he was still too insignificant.
Of course, he didn't need to think about this for now. What he needed to think about now was the battle tomorrow.
Yi Yun was indebted to the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. Most of Yi Yun's cultivation resources and cultivation techniques were provided by the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
Yi Yun was a grateful person. The Tai Ah Divine Kingdom was facing a major crisis, and Yi Yun was able to help. Naturally, he would go all out!
"Senior Cang Yan, the Tai Ah Divine City has a weapon pavilion, right? I want to choose a pair of swords to deal with tomorrow's battle. "
Yi Yun's Thousand Army Saber could no longer be used, and the broken sword he obtained from the Pure Yang Sword Palace was of great importance. It was not good to take it out unless it was a matter of life and death. Choosing a pair of swords and sabers in the Tai Ah Divine City was perfect.
The swords and sabers in the Tai Ah Divine City's armory were definitely much better than the ones in the Jin Long Wei's armory.
Cang Yan looked at Yi Yun's harmless smile and his heart thumped. He said unhappily, "Darn kid. You want to take advantage of me again. You can choose a weapon, but it will be considered a loan. If you win tomorrow's battle, I'll give you the weapon. If you don't win, hehe, you will pay according to the price! Don't think of using the battle to take advantage of me. "
Yi Yun grinned, "Alright!"
That night, all the elites gathered in the Tai Ah Divine City were accumulating their strength and adjusting their condition for tomorrow's battle.
However, while everyone was recuperating, in a corner of the Divine City, there were a few people gathered in a small yard under the cover of the night.
"It's this person?"
It was dark in the night, but warriors could easily see.
At this moment, two men covered in cloaks held a portrait in their hands. On the portrait was a youth in linen clothes holding a saber.
This youth was Yi Yun.
"It's him." The cloaked man's voice was hoarse, making it hard to recognize his original voice. "Break his meridians. It's best if you can make him permanently disabled. If you can do it, we will reward you handsomely."
As the cloaked man said that, he flipped his hand and a small black bag appeared in his hand, "This is the deposit."
"Ah!" A youth with a venomous snake wrapped around his body took the black bag.
This youth was thin. His ears were covered in skull earrings. His face and body were covered in tattoos, making him look extremely strange.
The young man's pupils were also amber and oval like a snake's. As he smiled, a pair of sharp teeth were revealed at the corner of his mouth, causing people to shudder.
Beside the venomous snake youth, there was a fatty in yellow. He rubbed his chin with interest and reached into the black bag.
A handful of shiny items rolled out, shining like jewels in the night.
They were all desolate bone relics!
"Top quality goods!"
The yellow-clothed fatty licked his lips, "Interesting. I'm very curious about your identities. You can't possibly be from my Yun Long Divine Kingdom. Could it be that you are from the same sect as this person named Yi Yun? Tsk Tsk, his popularity sure is bad. It's so bad that his fellow disciples would bribe an enemy faction to cripple him."
"You don't have to worry about that." The two cloaked men's voices turned cold as they raised their vigilance.
If the upper echelons of the Tai Ah Divine City knew what they had done, it was possible that their cultivation would be crippled or they would be sentenced to death.
"I'm warning you. This Yi Yun is not easy to deal with. Be careful that you fail miserably!"
A cloaked man said.
"Hehe, don't think that our Yun Long Divine Kingdom people are on the same level as your Tai Ah Divine Kingdom trash. They are just little kids who couldn't even be ranked in the top 1000 of your group a year ago."
The venomous snake youth smiled sinisterly and kept the desolate bone relics.
"You …"
When one of the cloaked men heard the venomous snake youth's arrogant mockery, he clenched his fists and was about to retaliate, but he was stopped by the other person.
"Then I'll leave it to the two of you." The cloaked man said.
"Ha! You are angry just because of this. You are indeed from the Tai Ah Divine City. Don't worry, I, Viper, am best at being vicious. I'll take on this business! "
In a competitive battle, death or crippling was not uncommon. After all, it was a battle of real swords and sabers. Most of the time, one had to go all out!
Even in the Tai Ah Divine City's internal battles, when people tried their best to avoid a battle to the death, there could still be deaths in the arena.
And this kind of battle between opposing factions was bound to be more intense, or even tragic.
"It's a deal!" The two cloaked men quietly retreated.
The fatty in yellow held a bamboo stick in his mouth as he slowly picked his teeth, "These Tai Ah Divine City cultivators sure are terrible. With an external enemy in front of them, they are already fighting amongst themselves!"
"Hehe, jealousy and hatred is a terrifying force. It can make people crazy and do things regardless of the consequences. But this is for the best. Senior Qianshui, this Yi Yun just turned 14. I should be in the same group as him. I'll snatch this business away from him! "
"Of course, up to you." The fatty in yellow did not care.
"But who are these two people? They sure are cunning. They even disguised their voices. "The venomous snake man said again.
"Hehe! One of them is one-armed. He thinks he has disguised it well, but his prosthetic limb does not have any Yuan Qi fluctuations. How can he fool me? There are many cultivators in the Tai Ah Divine City, but there aren't many who are one-armed. If I want to find him, I'll definitely find him. "
As the fatty said this, his lips curled into a sinister smile.
The next morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten. The Tai Ah Divine City was still covered in early winter snow. People from all over began to gather in the arena to participate in the City Lord's birthday banquet. At the same time, it was also the alliance tournament.
The arena had already been cleaned up, and tables for ten people were placed all over the arena.
In the seats of honor, there were small tables prepared for the legendary figures of the various large factions.
Fine wine and delicacies were placed to the brim. The scale of this birthday banquet was more than ten times larger than the one seven days ago.
The only difference was that the arena had a murderous aura. It did not have the elegance of the Splendid Room. Even the forks and chopsticks on the table were made of black iron. It gave people a murderous feeling. It did not look like a birthday banquet at all.
The central Divine Wilderness Stage was specially set up with an array. Even if the Divine Wilderness Stage was in an uproar, the surrounding birthday banquet would not be affected.
But at this moment, not many of the young elites present could eat in peace.
Of course, there were exceptions.
On the Yun Long Divine Kingdom's side, there was a fatty in yellow clothes who was grabbing a piece of roasted meat. He did not care that the birthday banquet had yet to officially begin.
Now that they were about to lose all decorum, he did not care about these superficial courtesies. Besides, if he did not eat his fill, how would he go on stage later?
Beside the fatty in yellow clothes sat a skinny tattooed youth. He had a venomous snake wrapped around his body. His eyes were like a venomous snake's as he searched for his prey.
Then, he saw a young man in hemp garments walking into the arena. He smiled faintly, revealing sharp teeth that looked like awls at the corners of his mouth.
"Hehe, the prey is here. He sure is fresh and delicious."
As he spoke, the fatty beside him also looked up at Yi Yun.
"Oh! Really, what a pitiful child. He still doesn't know that his fellow disciples are framing him. Hahaha! "
The fatty laughed wantonly as his mouth was covered in oil.
While walking in the crowd, Yi Yun frowned slightly. He felt that someone was staring at him.
He did not need to turn his head. Just by opening his energy vision, he could instantly lock onto the fatty in yellow clothes and the venomous snake youth.
"Oh? I don't know these two people. Why are they staring at me? "
Yi Yun subconsciously touched his interspatial ring. In this interspatial ring was the weapon that Yi Yun had chosen yesterday!
(Third update. Two days ago, I tried to adjust to the time difference, but failed.)
