"Johnnie, you must stay alive!"
After saying that, Aiden and Caron left right away.
Johnnie looked at their backs for a long ti. The Six-Ard Demons were dealt with for now, and it was ti to find out what those two Immortality Cultivators, who acted like turtles, were really up to.
Right now, Aiden and Caron were like two ti bombs—no one knew when they would suddenly blow up.
Johnnie didn’t want to wait until the Star Raiders ca back and these two exploded. That would be a big ss.
As Johnnie was thinking about how to get rid of Aiden and Caron, the old leader suddenly asked again."Johnnie, did you get any useful information from this mission?"
Dylan added."Yeah, up until now, we know very little about our enemies. If we had more info, we might be able to fight them better."
Johnnie thought for a mont. He looked at Dylan and the old leader, who both looked excited. He decided not to ntion the Seven Royal Clans.
If they knew that the Seven Royal Clans of the Star Raiders couldn’t be killed, it might lower their confidence.
Johnnie started to understand why Aureon, the Human Emperor, and Skye had always told him to wait before asking about the Star Raiders.
"There wasn’t much useful info." he said. "But we can be sure that the Six-Ard Demons, Lizardn, and Bio-Humans aren’t the only enemies."
"They won’t stop here. The enemies we face next will be even stronger."
When Johnnie said that, the old leader and Dylan were surprised for a mont, then they slowly nodded. They knew the enemies were strong and couldn’t be defeated easily.
But that didn’t stop the two from spreading the news about Johnnie killing the Six-Ard Demons later. After all, many ordinary people were still scared and worried about the demons’ appearance.
Johnnie had already been very respected before. In the future, he would probably beco the hope of Earth, a kind of savior.
After a short chat, when Nick and the old leader left, Johnnie finally asked Holly."Where is Crysic? Why didn’t she show up?"
Holly quickly answered."Crysic believed you would co back safe. She’s been acting strange these days, trying to get stronger."
"A hidden place appeared in Stellar City. A player found sothing that looked like an ancient treasure. Crysic went there right away."
Johnnie frowned. He knew Crysic was trying to get stronger so she could help him more.
Just as he was about to go to Stellar City, Holly added."Before she left, Crysic told you to rest when you got back. She went with Phoenix."
Johnnie thought for a mont. Besides the Star Raiders, no one could threaten Crysic’s safety. After all, she controlled the chanical City and had Phoenix with her.
In the past period, Johnnie had been really busy and hadn’t had much ti to rest.
There was no other choice—after all, no one else could deal a lot of damage to those Star Raiders.
He needed to find a way to let others learn so Power of the Way. Otherwise, relying only on himself wouldn’t be enough.
Johnnie thought again about the Sword Immortal inheritance. His Stage 7 Sword Immortal class change hadn’t been completed yet, and the task that ca after leveling up—The Mage of the Five Elents class change—hadn’t even been checked.
There was just too much to do.
Johnnie sighed. Resting wasn’t an option. He had to go to the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb later.
He didn’t stay long. With the reluctant looks from the girls, he set off again toward the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb.
On the way, Johnnie quickly checked the requirents of the advanced tasks.
[Stage 7 Sword Immortal Advanced Task: Complete the Trial of the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb (Not Completed), Have 10,000 Sword Immortal disciples at Stage 5 or higher (Completed)]
[Stage 8, The Mage of the Five Elents Advanced Task: Five Elents Talent increased to 80% (Not Completed), Five Elents Technique upgraded to Stage 8 (Not Completed), Kill 10,000 Rare Elental Demonic Creatures of Stage 8 or higher]
Seeing that part of the Stage 7 Sword Immortal task was already done, Johnnie imdiately understood—probably a lot of Yett Family disciples had reached Stage 5 Sword Immortal.
That saved him a lot of ti. When he entered the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb, finishing the trial shouldn’t take long.
The real problem was the Stage 8 The Mage of the Five Elents advanced task. The number of rare elental demonic creatures to kill was way too high.
Last ti, it was only because the Haldrem Empire attacked the Montemar Empire, and Johnnie used Hellfire to kill a huge number of elental demonic creatures on the battlefield that he managed to complete the task.
Now, where was he going to find so many of them?
Johnnie had to put the Stage 8, The Mage of the Five Elents advanced task aside for now. He decided to finish the Stage 7, Sword Immortal task first, and see if the next stage would be any easier.
He had killed so many Bio-Humans and Six-Ard Demons. If he had finished his tasks earlier, he might have already reached Stage 9 by now!
"Don’t rush. I need to build up my strength now. Once I pass the Heavenly Tribulation, I’ll be able to show my real power." Johnnie thought to himself.
Soon, he arrived at the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb.
[You have started the Stage 7, Sword Immortal advanced task: Kill 150,000 Stage 7 Sword-Testing Puppets within three hours.]
The ssage flashed, and Johnnie planned to finish this quickly. He had already killed many powerful beings, and his strength was growing fast every day.
Stage 7 Sword-Testing Puppets were no longer a challenge for him.
Clang, clank...
A series of chanical sounds filled the air, and one by one, Sword-Testing Puppets with Stage 7 energy appeared.
Zoom!
A flash of cold light—Johnnie acted first. His Dragon Patterned Sword shot out, slicing through one of the puppets in a single strike.
Boom!
Instant Kill!
Dragon Patterned Sword, Void Sword, Seven Sword... several flying swords shot out, attacking the puppets in a frenzy.
Johnnie rembered that last ti, he had been too fast and finished the trial in just 13 seconds, getting an "unrated" evaluation.
This ti, he took a little more ti. He estimated about one minute had passed, then he used his Ten Thousand Sword Beams.
A storm of sword light rained down, instantly killing a large number of Sword-Testing Puppets.
[You have successfully killed 150,000 Sword-Testing Puppets in 58 seconds; Trial Evaluation: Unrated]
Again."unrated"?
Johnnie was speechless. He had already been trying to slow down, or else he would have finished even faster.
At that mont, the system voice ca again.
[Trial Re-evaluated, temporarily rated as SSS ]
[You have received extra rewards: Stone of Comprehension of the Way of the Sword x3000, stat potion x3000, Comprehension of the Way of the Sword chance 1]
At this, Johnnie finally relaxed. As long as he got a chance to gain Comprehension of the Way of the Sword, it didn’t matter much.
His level of The Way of the Sword had been in the Sword Spirit Realm for a long ti. After that ca the Sword Soul Realm—where he could form a sword spirit, making his flying swords much stronger, and his speed with the controlled sword would also increase.
This ti, he hoped he could directly reach the Sword Soul Realm in the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space. Otherwise, it would take a lot of ti again.
Johnnie thought about it, and then directly entered the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space.
Hum...
[Ding, you have entered the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space, and received two hours of opportunity to cultivate The Way of the Sword.]
At that mont, the prompt ssage appeared. Johnnie sat down cross-legged, took out the Stone of Comprehension of the Way of the Sword, and started to understand The Way of the Sword.
Just like last ti, he still brought the Oracle Bell and the Iceheart Jade with him, which increased his wisdom by 10 points. Then he carefully sensed the surrounding energy of The Way of the Sword, and started to absorb and improve.
Hum...
Countless sword lights surrounded him, slowly rotating around his body and making a buzzing sound.
Ti passed slowly. Soon, Johnnie had completely absorbed all 3000 Stones of Comprehension of the Way of the Sword.
He could already feel that he was just one step away from breaking through the Sword Spirit Realm and reaching the Sword Soul Realm.
...
Sotis, the difference between success and failure is just a little bit—like a natural barrier.
Johnnie spent the whole ti in the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space, but he still couldn’t break through from the Sword Spirit Realm to the Sword Soul Realm.
He let out a long sigh.
But thinking about it again, the harder it was to reach the Sword Soul Realm, the more powerful it must be.
Wait a second.
Johnnie suddenly realized that after completing the Stage 7 Sword Immortal task, his level had jumped high enough to trigger the Stage 8 Sword Immortal task.
Sure enough, the next second, a new ssage appeared.
[Ding, you have triggered the Stage 8 Sword Immortal advanced task.]
[Stage 8 Sword Immortal Advanced Task: Complete the Trial of the Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb, and have 30,000 Sword Immortal disciples at Stage 6 or higher]
30,000 Sword Immortal disciples at Stage 6 or higher?
Johnnie felt a little helpless. He had just finished the requirent of 10,000 disciples at Stage 5, and there was no way he could reach 30,000 in a short ti.
But he could still go through the trial again, and get another chance to enter the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space.
This ti, he was definitely going to reach the Sword Soul Realm!
Without any hesitation, Johnnie repeated the sa process again, but this ti he carefully controlled the ti to five minutes.
[You have successfully killed 300,000 Sword-Testing Puppets in 5 minutes; Trial Evaluation: Highest SSS ]
[You have received extra rewards: Stone of Comprehension of the Way of the Sword x6000, stat potion x6000, Comprehension of the Way of the Sword chance 1]
Soon, Johnnie entered the Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space again.
As he kept sensing and using the Stones of Comprehension of the Way of the Sword, more and more Sword Intent surrounded him, growing stronger and stronger.
He was getting closer and closer to the Sword Soul Realm!
Ti passed slowly. And in one mont, Johnnie suddenly had a realization in his heart—what was the Sword Soul!
At the sa ti, the entire Comprehension of the Way of the Sword space began to shake. Countless Sword Intents sounded at once, as if celebrating.
