Chapter 279 - 279 278 Gale Chasing Lightning Sword

279: Chapter 278: Gale Chasing Lightning Sword 279: Chapter 278: Gale Chasing Lightning Sword “It’s impossible, it must be our Brother Chen!” the disciples of the Mu family refused to give in.

Lin Xuan was enveloped in a dazzling column of light, his figure gradually becoming blurred as the scenery on both sides flew by at breakneck speed, as if time and space were reversing.

When he regained consciousness, countless hazy doors surrounded him, waiting for him to make a choice.

“One door should represent one type of martial arts, and you only have one chance!” the Lord of Wine reminded.

“Which one among these is the Earth Rank Martial Arts?” Lin Xuan looked at the doors, twinkling like stars, his heart stirred.

The number of these glittering doors far exceeded his expectations!

Doors after doors, some shone with dazzling brilliance, others glowed faintly like fireflies.

The Lord of Wine spoke slowly, “You can’t tell just from the appearance, perhaps you should try your fate.”

“Fate?” Lin Xuan rolled his eyes.

Such a thing was unpredictable, who knew whether his fate at this moment was good or bad?

“There’s more ahead, why not go take a look?” Lin Xuan’s spirit stirred, and he set off toward what lay ahead.

Countless hazy doors passed by his side, carrying an unexplainable aura that also tugged at his heart.

Buzz!

A Light Gate resonated with him, spewing out thousands of strands of rosy light, dazzling to extremes.

“Could this be my fate?” Lin Xuan was slightly stunned.

His gaze flickered as he urged his soul to observe, yet he found nothing.

“Is it really this one?” Somehow, Lin Xuan felt reluctant to settle.

“If you can’t decide right away, then give up,” the Lord of Wine said in a deep voice.

Lin Xuan fell silent; he swiftly turned and chose to give up.

His subconscious told him that better martial arts awaited him ahead.

Moments later, another Light Gate appeared, emanating faint fluctuations that were astonishing.

This aura made Lin Xuan’s heart tremble.

“Could it be Earth Rank Martial Arts?” Lin Xuan was tempted.

Buzz, buzz!

In the storage ring, a palm-sized key suddenly glowed, flickering uncertainly.

Lin Xuan was surprised and took it out, holding it in his palm.

The key hummed with an ancient aura, its surface extremely rough; if thrown on the ground, likely no one would take notice.

However, Lin Xuan’s heart was elated, for this key was obtained together with the Futu Order.

“These doors are all illusory, not needing a key, but I have one in my hand, and it has undergone an anomaly.

Could it be that there’s a door here that requires unlocking?” Lin Xuan wondered.

“It must be so!” A smile emerged on his face as he gave up the Light Gate that seemed like it might be Earth Rank Martial Arts.

“Hope you will lead me to the true treasure!”

The stone key spun, pointing in a direction, and continued to tremble uncontrollably.

Lin Xuan gripped the stone key firmly, his body transforming into a streak of light, zipping forward.

Before long, a Stone Gate appeared, simple and unusual, emitting no light.

It was a very ordinary door, seen everywhere in the outside world, but its appearance here seemed somewhat strange.

Lin Xuan scanned the area and found a dark groove in the center of the Stone Gate, shaped like a keyhole.

“This is indeed the place!”

“Now that you’ve found it, hurry up and open it,” the Lord of Wine’s voice transmitted.

Lin Xuan held the key, slowly fitting it into the groove, then gently turned it.

Click!

Click!

Two soft sounds were heard, and the Stone Gate slowly opened, with a hazy light screen appearing.

Taking a step in, Lin Xuan’s body flickered, arriving in a strangely unique space.

Ahead, there was a huge green Long Sword, thick as a Heavenly Pillar, embedded in the ground.

A fierce and deadly aura approached, shaking Lin Xuan to his core.

He felt like a small boat that could be overturned by the waves at any moment.

A massive green long sword, with intricate and mysterious patterns carved upon it, looked ancient as if it had seen endless years.

Taking two steps forward, Lin Xuan was immediately greeted by a rich, ancient breath; it almost sounded like thousands of troops galloping in the distance.

“Earth Rank Martial Arts?” Lin Xuan took a deep breath.

Such presence could only belong to the legendary Earth Rank Martial Arts.

Lin Xuan realized that even a Soul Fusion Realm Expert could be easily slain under this aura.

Moving forward, he felt an enormous pressure from all directions, as if the terrifying aura intended to tear him apart.

“Try the Wind Emperor’s Sword,” prompted the Lord of Wine.

Lin Xuan nodded and activated the Wind Emperor’s Sword, advancing slowly.

The pressure lessened considerably, allowing Lin Xuan to breathe a sigh of relief.

Coming before the body of the green giant sword, Lin Xuan reached out to gently touch it.

The moment his hand made contact with the green giant sword, the entire space seemed to boil.

In a trance, Lin Xuan saw a vision of the sky above where the green giant sword slashed fiercely, cleaving the sky open and spreading a terrifying black hole across the heavens.

The surrounding mountains crumbled, the earth cracked, as if it were the end of the world.

Hum!

Lin Xuan’s body trembled as he came out of that strange illusion, feeling a chill down his spine and realizing he was drenched in sweat.

“How terrifying, how domineering!” he stepped back twice, slowly lifting his head.

At the handle above, two ancient and simple characters were inscribed, emanating a mysterious power.

“Gale!” Lin Xuan muttered.

Then, circling the green giant sword, he found two more ancient characters, Chasing Lightning!

Gale Chasing Lightning Sword!

“Could this Earth Rank Martial Arts contain the power of Wind and Thunder as well?” Lin Xuan’s heart leapt with joy as he stared at the tall green giant sword.

“How can I acquire it?” His brows furrowed slightly.

This thing is indeed powerful; probably not even a fighter from the Three Spirit Realms could take it away.

The Lord of Wine spoke slowly.

“What?

Not even a martial artist from the Three Spirit Realms can take it?” Lin Xuan was astonished, not expecting this.

“What am I to do, then?

Am I to return empty-handed?” His face showed a hint of bitterness.

“Hey, Lord of Wine, do you have a way?” Lin Xuan scratched his head and asked.

Hmph!

The Lord of Wine snorted softly, “Of course, I do!”

“Really?” Lin Xuan’s face brightened, eagerly asking, “How so?

Are you going to take this green sword?”

“There’s no need for me to take action,” the Lord of Wine said, “Have you forgotten the heaven-defying treasure within you?”

“Heaven-defying treasure?” Lin Xuan was puzzled, thinking of nothing but the Great Dragon Sword Intent and the Lord of Wine.

“Stupid!

Where do I reside?” the Lord of Wine said with contempt.

“Oh!” Lin Xuan slapped his forehead, remembering the mysterious small sword in him, which was of a glazed color, so mysterious that even the Lord of Wine had taken temporary residence in it.

However, since the small sword had entered his body, it had been quiet, and with time, he had almost forgotten about it.

“Does that small sword have such a use as well?”

“Hmph, what do you know!

That small sword’s origins are terrifying, naturally, it has endless uses.

Otherwise, why would I be in this predicament!” the Lord of Wine said indignantly.

“It’s just that your cultivation is too low to activate it!”

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and tried to engage the Mysterious Small Sword within him.

Hum!

The Mysterious Small Sword trembled faintly, releasing a Sword Wave that shot out of Lin Xuan’s body swiftly.

This Sword Wave, carrying a mysterious aura, quickly flew towards the green giant sword in front.

Boom!

Under Lin Xuan’s tense gaze, the heavenly pillar-like green giant sword began to shake violently.
