Chapter 512 - The Peerless Treasure Sword
Upon hearing the words' peerless beauty ', the Sword Spirit's attention was completely attracted, to the point that she completely ignored the following words, and was wholeheartedly thinking about Xiao Qianhan's treasured sword.
"Are you talking about the sword your master used to kill that young master in the central basin?"
"Right." Qian Zi nodded her head, and then asked as if her tone was slightly lacking in confidence: "What do you think about that treasure sword?"
Finding a sword spirit for the broken sword was also something she hoped to see. Furthermore, her master was the same as her and had instructed her in this matter. It's just that the appearance of the broken sword does look a little...
"How should I know? I had just arrived in this space and was not familiar with anything. How could I have the time to look at some treasured sword? What's more, your master said that she wanted to find a treasure sword for me, and didn't even say that she had one! " The sword spirit rolled her eyes. In her heart, she regretted not having taken a single glance at it.
Previously, when it possessed the Herba Cuspidae, it did not feel anything. Now that it knew that it would be separated from the Herba Cuspidae and that there would be a treasured sword to make it a sword spirit, its thoughts became uncontrollable.
Outside, Xiao Qianhan had heard the gist of their conversation, and couldn't help but be a little unsure of whether to laugh or cry. However, she did not intend to just show the broken sword to the sword spirit and let nature take its course.
"What's going on? It was one thing to have a lot of people in the Tianlei Mountain. At the foot of the mountain, there are still so many people going down the mountain? " Since Long Yu had nothing better to do, he walked in the front and was the first to notice the abnormality.
After Xiao Qianhan heard this, she immediately looked up. As expected, at the foot of Tianlei Mountain, many people were heading back one after another, forming a stark contrast with the crowd of people walking up the mountain. The most important thing was that most of the people who went down the mountain supported each other, as if they were injured.
"Long Yu, go take a look." Yun Mojin's black eyes looked far into the distance, her gaze deep.
"Yes, Your Highness." After Long Yu received the order, he swiftly dashed forward like a wisp of smoke.
At the same time, there were also many people in the surroundings who discovered the abnormality at the foot of the mountain. Most of them slowed down their pace, and some even stood on the spot and discussed about it.
"Hey, look!" Someone went down the mountain, and it seems like he was injured! "
"Very normal. If you cannot break through the Five Elements Formation, you will at least suffer some injuries. "
"That's not right. Didn't they say that the Five Elements Formation can only trap people? How can it hurt? "
"In my opinion, most of those injuries were left behind by someone else. Isn't it just for the viewing tickets to the Heavenly Law Congress, do you have to be so cruel? "
"To have injured so many people, how generous must that be!?" Just for the tickets? That shouldn't be! A person's ticket only required one of the five elemental cores. Doesn't this mean that their Spiritual Cores will be monopolized? "
Along the way, Xiao Qianhan and the others had learnt that the reason so many people wanted to enter the Tianlei Mountain was to obtain the Spirit Core within the Five Elements Formation. There were many array spirits within the Five Elements Array that had evolved through the array formation and were able to prevent others from climbing up the mountain. If he killed the formation genie, he would be able to obtain the spirit core. And this spirit core was the ticket to enter the Heavenly Law Congress, to watch the battles of the experts.
Very quickly, Long Yu hurried back from the front.
"Your Highness, a mercenary group has appeared on the Tianlei Mountain, and it's not just one, it's not weak either. Those people were casually walking in the Five Elements Formation, and would immediately take away all the storage bag and all the pills and treasures. If you encounter a rebel, you might even kill them. " Long Yu said with obvious anger in his tone.
Mercenary company? Xiao Qianhan frowned.
In the Tian Luo Continent, mercenary groups were very popular. In particular, the mercenary groups formed by the traitors and evil experts of the various sects were very popular because of their power. This kind of mercenary company would accept any kind of missions, as long as the reward was satisfactory. Burning, killing, looting, doing everything. He would never ask about right or wrong.
Thus, these mercenary groups became the talons of the rich and powerful.
Of course, not all mercenary groups were like this. Even more mercenary groups did things in accordance with the rules, and they had their reasons. The mercenary group that he had mentioned before, even if it was a mercenary group, was also the dark side of the industry.
Looking at the current situation, it was very likely that the Tianlei Mountain's mercenary groups were doing whatever they wanted.
"No problem. "Let's go up the mountain." Her eyes darkened as she spoke. Her target this time was the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb, Tianlei Mountain, she had to go!
When Long Yu heard it, he nodded his head vigorously. He had the idea of immediately killing the citizens if he came across a mercenary group that was trying to stir up trouble.
On the other side, Yuan Shu Ye's face was slightly cold, a ruthless look flashed past his eyes. Obviously, he was the same as Long Yu.
Although Yun Mojin did not say anything, he had always supported Xiao Qianhan's decision, right or wrong.
Thus, the group of people began to climb up the mountain.
Due to too many injuries, less than 10% of those who were preparing to climb the mountain continued climbing. Most of the others were watching from the foot of the mountain, while a few others were so frightened that they directly returned to their original paths.
At this moment, not only did the injured group from the mountain not decrease, but instead they increased by a bit. Most of the injuries were red, and some even had severed limbs.
There were some who came down the mountain, but when they saw Xiao Qianhan and the others still continuing to climb the mountain, they could not help but come over and advise: "You guys better not go up the mountain. I have nothing but my clothes now. "
"Thank you very much." Xiao Qianhan smiled at the man, "We have matters to attend to and need to make a trip up the mountain."
With that said, she followed Yun Mojin and the rest and continued to walk.
Seeing this, the person who advised them could only shake his head and sigh, before continuing down the mountain.
Xiao Qianhan and the others passed by the people who were walking down the mountain, and very quickly reached the first level of the Five Element Formation, the gold matrix.
The gold matrix, as its name implies, had a lot of metal type formation spirits materializing and blocking the mountain climber's footsteps or even attacks. However, these attacks would only repel a person and would not cause them any damage.
Just as he entered the gold matrix, the scene around him changed. Above his head, there were no longer blue skies and white clouds. Instead, there was only mist. The top could not be seen at all. Even the surrounding area was only visible for a few dozen meters.
This situation was different from the illusions. It was created from an array formation, and existed for real. Merely, it was limited to formations.
Amongst the Five Elements Arrays, the gold matrix was the weakest. At the same time, it was also the largest in scope. In the entire gold matrix, there were no trees at all. The most common weapon was a weapon that was created by all sorts of formation spirits. These weapons could move, accurately determine a person's direction and block them.
Many of those who entered the mountain with Xiao Qianhan and the rest were stunned for a moment, then quickly walked up the mountain.
Xiao Qianhan and the rest did not stay, and continued to climb the mountain with steady footsteps.
The three spots that they could obtain from the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb would be decided in two days. They had enough time.
