Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible Chapter 242 - 242 A One in Three Chance

242 A One in Three Chance

In the darkness.

The sound of the wind was no longer very clear. Shen Rulin did not know how long or how far he had run, but he did not have the ti to think about this. All his attention was on the flickering fire in front of him.

Shen Rulin had never been so focused in his life.

Under the guidance of his father, Shen Rulin had developed a cautious personality since he was young. Even when he was cultivating, he had to be aware of the surroundings.

!!

Lin Ran was too fast. As long as Shen Rulin was distracted for a mont, he would be left dozens of feet behind. He thought that he could catch up to Lin Ran with all his might, but the reality was that the distance between the two of them was getting wider and wider.

“The strength of a Half-Saint is indeed unfathomable!” Shen Rulin subconsciously thought to himself.

Suddenly, he panicked, because he didn’t know how far he was left behind in this mont of distraction.

As he thought to himself, Shen Rulin hurriedly increased his speed, but he realized that the fire did not go further this ti. Instead, he was getting closer and closer to it…

In the blink of an eye, the raging fire was already right in front of him.

Shen Rulin ca back to his senses and hurriedly slowed down.

After stabilizing himself, Shen Rulin turned around and saw Lin Ran standing behind him, surrounded by a few fire sword energy.

“Why did you suddenly stop?”

“Sothing’s wrong with this place.”

Lin Ran narrowed his eyes at Shen Rulin. “Do you know how far we’ve traveled?”

“I don’t know.”

Shen Rulin shook his head honestly. It took almost all his strength to keep up with Lin Ran. How could he have the extra energy to think about anything else? However, judging from how tired he was, they must have traveled a long way.

“Three hundred miles.”

Lin Ran said calmly, “We traveled for a full fifteen minutes. According to our speed, it should be about 300 miles.”

“We’ve only been traveling for fifteen minutes?!”

Shen Rulin, who had always been calm, couldn’t help but exclaim. At this mont, he felt as if he had been running for three days and three nights without rest, but in actuality, only 15 minutes had passed!

After a short mont of shock, Shen Rulin’s expression turned solemn. He already understood what Lin Ran ant.

“We’ve already left Mount Sword.”

Shen Rulin said in a low voice with a solemn expression. Even the entire area of Mount Sword only covered dozens of kiloters. It was obvious that they were no longer on Mount Sword.

“But how is that possible?”

Shen Rulin frowned and asked in confusion, “We’ve been traveling in a straight line all this ti. Why is there such a big space inside the mountain?”

“It’s still possible. As far as I know, there’s a secret passage under Mount Sword’s main peak.”

Lin Ran replied softly. His eyes flickered as he looked into the darkness in front of him, thinking about sothing.

This was the first ti Shen Rulin had heard of the existence of a secret passage in Mount Sword. He was stunned for a mont before asking in confusion, “Do you an that we’ve already entered that secret passage?”

Lin Ran shook his head and didn’t say anything because he wasn’t very sure. He had only stepped into the secret room under the Hidden Sword Pavilion for a short while and didn’t know what the secret passage in Mount Sword looked like.

However, from the length of this passage, it was most likely not the sa secret passage. Otherwise, they would have already arrived at the secret room under the Hidden Sword Pavilion.

However, if it was not the sa secret passage, where did the passage they were in co from? The secret passage of the Hidden Sword Pavilion was built by the Ten Miles Sword God. Could it be that soone else had done the sa thing before the Ten Miles Sword God?

As he thought to himself, Lin Ran raised the Yin-Yang Sword and gently drew a circle. Dozens of fire sword energy ford a circle and rushed into the darkness in front of him like an arrow leaving the bow. However, even when the fire circle was completely swallowed by the darkness, it did not hit anything.

The two of them looked at each other. Lin Ran’s expression darkened. He pursed his lips and said softly, “You’re right. Ever since we went up the mountain, my words haven’t been accurate.”

“I was just joking. Don’t take it to heart. Besides, this has nothing to do with you. After all, this is our only choice…”

But the more Shen Rulin spoke, the more he felt that sothing was wrong with Lin Ran’s reaction.

After a pause, Shen Rulin suddenly thought of sothing. He narrowed his eyes at Lin Ran and asked tentatively, “This is our only choice… right?”

Lin Ran pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.

Shen Rulin’s heart skipped a beat. “Could it be that there’s more than one path we can take?”

Lin Ran stretched out three fingers weakly. Before Shen Rulin could speak, he hurriedly explained, “I didn’t expect to be so unlucky. That’s a one in three chance! However, it’s not too late to turn back now.”

Shen Rulin looked at Lin Ran and gritted his teeth, but in the end, he only said with a soft sigh, “Then let’s go back first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them returned around and walked back in silence. The atmosphere was oppressive .However, there was nothing they could do.

Nothing happened on the path Lin Ran chose. Although they had yet to reach the end, the chances of finding anything here were slim.

Instead of wasting ti, it was better to admit that he was unlucky and return in ti.

The two of them returned to the place where they first set off in silence. The two small stone platforms had already collapsed, and the two black bamboo tubes had long been burned out.

“Can you find a way to do it again?”

Lin Ran asked softly in embarrassnt, “If you don’t have black smoke left, you can use red smoke. Just tell the people behind that this place is dangerous.”

Shen Rulin sighed and did not say anything. He silently took out a few bamboo tubes and was about to set them up again when he suddenly sniffled and said, “Wait a second, soone has been here.”

Lin Ran was stunned. “Are you sure?”

“Positive.”

Shen Rulin pointed at the two black bamboo tubes on the ground and said firmly, “According to our round trip ti, the second black smoke should have just burned out, but there’s no sll of powder burning here. The second bamboo tube was triggered at least 15 minutes ago!”

Lin Ran’s expression changed slightly. He flipped the Yin-Yang Sword gently, and instantly, thousands of fire sword energy surged out, scattering like a frightened school of fish, illuminating the entire space!

Shen Rulin looked around and saw that they were in an underground stone room with a radius of a hundred steps. There were neat black stone walls around them, and there were three black cave entrances in three directions.

At the sa ti, Shen Rulin saw a rut that led straight into the northwest cave.
