— Chapter 317 —

A young man is swinging his wooden sword in a vast desert filled with brown, almost cinnamon-like sands. Each slash is precise but sharp enough to cut everything.

The momentum Yunlong made was enough to snap someone’s neck into pieces, yet no sound came out of it. It’s just a quiet slash.

Yunlong swung his Bokken gently and briefly noticed a bunch of strings around him. He stopped and sighed because he couldn’t see them permanently.

What Yunlong meant by “Them.” is the Outer God’s connection in the shape of black strings around this place. After training for one year in the Desolate Ancient Battle Arena, he discovered the clue and tried to solve the problem. Then, the situation becomes too complex for him.

Yunlong sighed, “This will take a while. The Ninety-Nine Days Curse has disappeared for a long time, but I somehow can copy it in time.”

“Though it’s inferior. That damned Asura God.”

A glowing wing mark appeared on the back of Yunlong’s right hand. It looks similar to command seals from Fate but has a different function.

[Name: Wing of Freedom]

[Type: Sealing/Spell/Blessing]

[Effect: +150% Exp]

[Description: A development of copying Ice God’s [Ninety-Nine Days Curse], the user utilized the sealing technique in addition to Spiritual God’s Tongue. This attempt was successful but couldn’t hold a candle to the real one]

[in theory, Wing of Freedom’s effect last forever till the user cannot support the buff anymore with his energy]

A wry smile slowly formed on Yunlong’s face because his poor attempt to copy Ninety Nine Days Curse was birthing a decent result. Even though the product is lacking, he at least can maintain the effect longer than the real one.

Yunlong moved his gaze to the north and caught Zhu Zhuqing waving her hand at him. It’s the only way they can communicate with each other. He waved back and instructed her to rest with sign language.

Zhu Zhuqing is on her Infernal Beast transformation. Her body had grown much in one year, but soft dark purple furs covered her upper body. A pair of cat ears swayed adorably on top of her head.

‘I want to sleep with you.’ She gave Yunlong a pout.

Yunlong chuckled when reading Zhu Zhuqing’s sign messages and responded, ‘We will do that after we get out of this place.’

He moved his gaze around and noticed his companion training diligently like him. Chu Xiaoyu swung her Icy Haze Sword skillfully and caused the area around her to become cold.

Her now almost bluish-white hair flowed gently. Chu Xiaoyu has reached a level where her presence alone is enough to freeze her enemy. There are some massive ice sculptures around her, which were Great Blades Worms’ corpses.

Meanwhile, Chu Xiaoyu’s mother reached a terrifying level too. The adult maid meditated most of the time, but everyone in the one-kilometer vicinity could see violent cold winds in that exact area.

Any Great Blades Worms that dared to approach Chu Yunxi’s territory instantly shredded into pieces. She becomes more powerful spiritually.

In the meantime, two areas literally were filled with intense flame and lightning. Bai Xue and Yu Ning’er have reached mastery of their respective abilities.

Bai Xue could create a golden flame with Absolute Fire without combusting her spirit energy inefficiently anymore. Even though she had almost endless fuel, that doesn’t mean she could use them endlessly too. Her control over flame isn’t usual anymore.

As for Yu Ning’er, her spear always released a vigorous purple light. Her body becomes more mature, but reasonably because her hidden bloodline awakens itself. She practiced and killed 800 Great Blades Worms day-to-day, nearing Yunlong’s Daily Quest.

He chuckled and said, “I should’ve not panicked back then and trusted their abilities.”

Yunlong looked down and felt the brownish sand moving against him. A tick mark appeared on his face.

He raised his head and noticed Zhu Zhuyun flashing her underwear at him. Her face is red, filled with lust and excitement.

‘I’m so horny right now, Master~!’ Zhu Zhuyun smiled and waved a few signs at him. ‘Please punish this bad girl!’

He smiled back and responded with a simple, ‘No.”

The perverted servant grinned and slumped on the ground with an excited smile on her face.

Zhu Zhuyun utilized the Desolate Ancient Battle Arena’s innate mechanism by walking forward to gain Yunlong’s attention. She is wise when it comes to solving something but also horny 24/7.

Not to mention, Zhu Zhuyun’s strength has grown exponentially in the past year. She could defeat Great Blades Worms by simply destroying their bodies inside out with dark energy.

Yunlong could feel her darkness law is somewhat two levels or even one level lower than him.

A piercing gaze focused on Yunlong. He immediately turned around and found Kaguya in front of a tree house. Yes, she has that much time to build her own home.

There is a literal forest behind her too.

He gave her an awkward smile and asked, ‘How are you?’

‘Fine, I still couldn’t find a way out of this place. There so many dimensions laws overlapped against each other, assembling an impregnable coating of this dead realm.’ Kaguya responded with sign language. Her hand moved so fast, making her look like she was doing some complex jutsu.

She slowed down and continued, ‘I’ll try to break down the dimensional laws little by little.’

Yunlong opened his palm and replied, ‘Good luck! I’ll also try to find another way.’

Kaguya nodded naturally and closed her eyes into in-depth meditation. Her power required a lot of focus to activate because Rinne-Sharingan hadn’t completely awakened yet.

“The last…” Yunlong watched a snow cocoon.

When Xue Nu arrived at the Desolate Ancient Battle Arena, she went through evolution because the surroundings apparently contained rich “Universal Law.” for her.

Unlike others, Xue Nu is a pure Spirit Beast who gained human form after 100k years of cultivation. It was clear, but her growth relied on the bloodline the most. Not saying Xue Nu can’t be strong without training.

After absorbing Yunlong’s essence, she gained a boost in the bloodline and passed through her limit. Still, the fusion wasn’t perfect because she fought someone at the time.

‘Good night, Xue Nu.’ Yunlong said while staring at the snow cocoon gently. They are alone in this deserted place, so he becomes closer to them now.

…

…

Another year passed quickly, and Yunlong’s silver hair became black again, returning to its original color. He was confused, but no one could explain this odd change. Even Neo, Yunlong’s loyal system, couldn’t detect the causes.

He was currently sweating profusely and lying on the sand with an annoyed expression. He has been here for two years, training endlessly with his companion.

[500k/1B Sword Swings]

[420k/1B Spear Thrusts]

[690k/1B Bow’s Draws]

“At this point, we’ll be trapped here forever.” Yunlong looked at the system panel helplessly. He always wondered what happened to Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue on the other side.

Well, at least Yunlong was sure Bibi Dong wouldn’t be panicked because of her usual temperament. As for his tsundere older sister, she might be mad and worried excessively.

“If only I could use Shadow Clone Jutsu.” He picked the Bokken again. His muscles relaxed naturally and followed his mind’s order without any problem.

“Whatever.” He shook his neck a few times and began to swing his sword.

…

A few months later, Xue Nu woke up from her deep hibernation and became more beautiful when walking out of her snow cocoon. Her new appearance shocked not only Yunlong but also her fellow maids.

Xue Nu is around 190 cm with a slender yet curvy body wrapped in a snow-like robe. Her face is stunning, with willowy brows and pale red lips.

She’s reaching a 900k years old cultivation state and successfully merged Yunlong’s essence with her soul origin core. This act changed her appearance to be more Dragon-like but still maintains Heavenly Snow Woman’s line.

‘How are you?’ Yunlong asked with sign language. His crimson eyes bloomed with curiosity because Xue Nu seemed to have become warmer.

Xue Nu gently smiled at him and replied, ‘Good.’

Even though Xue Nu’s sign language was crude, her movement was enough to send the message.

After explaining what happened in the Desolate Ancient Battle Arena to Xue Nu, the Heavenly Snow Woman was left speechless for a moment.

‘This place was located back to the universe’s beginning. We didn’t know how long we would be trapped here, but Kaguya and I tried our best to find a way out.’ Yunlong finished the explanation, and the snow beauty responded with a nod.

‘I might have a clue.’ Xue Nu suddenly said.

Yunlong frowned and asked, ‘What is it?’

The Heavenly Snow Woman created a snowstorm around her and manipulated “universal laws.” for a moment. Yunlong’s eyes widened because his maid was able to do something mortals can’t do.

Don’t get Yunlong wrong because he knew Xue Nu was still a 3rd-dimensional being like him. After all, you can’t solve the higher dimension so effortlessly.

‘Master, you have to become one with the universe.’ Xue Nu waved her hand.

Yunlong’s mouth was opened in amazement, not because of Xue Nu’s advice, but because she was calling him Master. It’s the first time.

‘I see… Thank you.’ Yunlong responded naturally.

…

Yunlong swung his Bokken and heard the system notification. It makes him stop as a system panel suddenly manifests before him.

[Ding! You have reached the first mark, 1 million sword swings]

[Do you want to learn Universal Sword’s Law]

[Y/N]

He pressed yes and immediately was knocked out, making his entire body fall to the ground. It causes panic among his companions.

‘Master! Master!’ Zhu Zhuyun shouted, but her voice won’t come out.

“Calm Down.” Kaguya’s voice echoed in the area.

…

‘H-How?!’ Bai Xue was the first who questioned Kaguya’s ability to talk in this place. Her apple-like hair has become longer, fluttering by the wind.

“I don’t have much time, so I’ll explain it quickly.” Kaguya’s third eye was half-opened, revealing her Rinne-Sharingan slightly.

“This place is a dead dimension, which means everything that has fallen in this universe will come to this place eventually. We are lucky to arrive in a relatively safe area.”

“However, We are in a place where Dimensions tightly overlap. It caused our communication to be restricted, so Good things all of you have good eyes.”

Kaguya continued, “I want all of you to become stronger, so we can overpower the dimension.”

‘But how?’ Zhu Zhuqing asked desperately.

Xue Nu grasped what Kaguya meant and opened her mouth slowly, “Become one with the universal law.”

“Yes, exactly like that-,” Kaguya replied but stopped midway because Xue Nu’s voice reached her place.

Xue Nu was surprised that her method worked and added, “Be one with you most comfortable. Xiaoyu, you can start with your sword.”

“Try to tap beyond your limit.”

“Don’t bound yourself with physical or spiritual limits. There was always a wall beyond you.”

As Xue Nu finished her words, all maids beside Kaguya started to train themselves.

Meanwhile, Yunlong calmly slept and floated in the unknown world.
