Chapter 178 Dragon Scale Sword (Second Update)
The moment Bai Ye saw the jet-black long sword, his mind was completely attracted by it. Although the long sword exuded a sharp aura that made his eyes sting, he also felt as if he was being stabbed by thousands of sword energies.
But he still stared at it intently and walked towards it subconsciously. Bai Ye almost completely lost his mind at this moment, until he reached out his hand to grasp the hilt of the sword in a daze, and the piercing cold and tearing pain brought him back to his senses.
He subconsciously knew that the situation was not good, but he couldn't let go of the sword. His skin seemed to be tightly stuck to it and he couldn't move at all.
He gradually began to panic and was thinking about how to get out of this situation when the scene flashed before his eyes and he found himself in a dark void.
It seemed like a separate space, with no boundaries and only darkness, which made people feel desperate. If an ordinary person suddenly ran to such a strange place, he would be terrified. But Bai Ye was different. He was born in the Bai family and had been through all kinds of harsh training since he was five years old. His nerves were thicker than steel and his heart was harder than diamond.
From childhood to adulthood, he has been locked up in a small dark room countless times. Although the situation here is weird, how can it scare him?
He was just curious, what exactly was this place? Why did he come here? Was this space real, or was it an illusion created by the strange sword?
He looked around, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything with his naked eyes.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
He had gone through countless darkness training since he was a child, and even in the dark, he could see with his naked eyes, but he was not as good as those nocturnal animals.
But the darkness here was different from any he had encountered before. The darkness around him was like substance, and there was not a trace of light. He tried to release his mental power, but was surprised to find that even his mental power could not penetrate the darkness here.
Where on earth is this place?
Bai Ye's eyes gradually became cold, and then he said: "I don't care who you are or what you are. Since you brought me to this place, you must come out to see me quickly, otherwise, let me return to the real world!"
But after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement around.
He smiled coldly, sat down cross-legged, took out the crystal core he had with him, closed his eyes and began to absorb it.
Bai Ye knew very well that being impatient at this time was useless. Instead of wasting energy, he should restore his strength to its best condition first. In this way, even if something unexpected happened, he would still have the strength to fight back.
Fortunately, although the environment was strange, there was no problem absorbing the crystal core. So, he kept closing his eyes and absorbing the crystal core.
The surroundings were terribly quiet, without a single sound. Such an environment could easily arouse the deepest fear in a person's heart, but he was not affected at all.
I don’t know how long it took, the originally dark space suddenly twisted, and then a long black sword appeared in front of Bai Ye, which was the one he had grabbed before.
The strange thing was that he had clearly grabbed the sword, but at this moment, the sword was floating about half a meter away in front of him.
The moment the long sword appeared, Bai Ye suddenly opened his eyes and stared at it intently.
The strange thing was that the long sword became ethereal in his sight. It seemed to be within reach, yet out of reach.
Without any hesitation, Bai Ye reached out to the long sword and grasped the hilt again. This time, the moment he grasped the hilt, the sword suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
Then, his hand suddenly grabbed nothing, and the black sword suddenly turned into a black light and sank into the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows!
Bai Ye subconsciously released his mental power to resist, but the black light was so overbearing that his mental power just started to meet it when it was instantly melted away!
Immediately afterwards, Bai Ye's sea of consciousness began to shake violently, and earth-shaking changes took place.
Bai Ye hugged his head tightly, the veins on his forehead bulged, his face flushed red, and then turned pale in an instant. He fell to the ground in pain, enduring the pain of his sea of consciousness being split open alive, and a painful groan came out of his throat.
The whole process was extremely long, like an endless torture that tortured him all the time. Bai Ye had no idea how much time had passed, and he almost fainted several times, but a voice in his heart told him not to faint, because if he fainted he would never wake up again.
So, in order to stay awake, he bit the tip of his tongue hard several times. Finally, the tip of his tongue was bitten all over, and he was able to stay awake by the pain of the tip of his tongue.
Just when he couldn't help but feel despair, a refreshing coolness suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness. Something spread in his sea of consciousness, constantly repairing his damaged sea of consciousness, gradually alleviating his pain.
The pain in his sea of consciousness became less and less, and finally he could not feel it at all. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a mysterious voice suddenly rang out in his sea of consciousness: "From now on, you are the master of the Dragon Scale Sword, and you can practice the Taixuan Golden Thunder Sword Dao."
That voice was not something that a human could possess. It carried a sense of vicissitudes from eternity, and when he heard it, his mood couldn't help but become shaken.
After the voice fell, Bai Ye "saw" a black long sword in his sea of consciousness. This long sword was obviously the Dragon Scale Sword mentioned in the voice, and it was also the thing that caused him endless pain.
He couldn't help but look at the sword carefully, and then, the sword gradually disintegrated in his eyes, turning into black words one after another. Each word looked extremely mysterious, even with a sharp aura. At first glance, it looked like a shrunken long sword.
Gradually, the entire sword completely disintegrated, and the mysterious black characters kept flying around, eventually converging into a set of skills.
The technique was very long, and he subconsciously wanted to memorize the entire technique. However, after reading only the first volume, when he was about to read the second volume, he felt dizzy and his eyes became blurry and tired, and he could no longer see the text clearly.
Then, all the words gathered together again and turned into that long black sword.
If there wasn't an extra piece of text in his mind, Bai Ye would have suspected that the scene just now was just his illusion!
Taixuan Jinlei Sword Art, it's just a name, but it carries with it a terrifying murderous aura. Bai Ye is not a fool, he knows what a terrifying thing such a martial art is!
How lucky is he to have received such a terrifying inheritance?
No! No! If he had seen it correctly, the golden light that killed the spiritual zombie came from Fang Yuxin! So, this means that the sword should have been hers?
Thinking of this, Bai Ye felt as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water over his head. The joy he had just felt for obtaining a powerful inheritance was gone, and all that was left was guilt towards Fang Yuxin and inexplicable panic.
If he obtained this inheritance, wouldn't that mean he had robbed Fang Yuxin of his things? In this case, how would Fang Yuxin look at him? Would his wish still be possible?
Bai Ye has always been fearless. Even when he was on a mission and faced a life-threatening situation, he had never been so panicked!
No! He had to apologize to Fang Yuxin! As long as he could get her forgiveness, he would be happy even if he had to return the inheritance to her!
Although he was extremely reluctant, Bai Ye quickly made up his mind.
Then, he found that the surrounding scenery had changed, and he had returned to reality! Looking around, Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang were standing one meter away, looking at him with complicated expressions, and the mutant zombies around had already been cleared away.
Looking at Fang Yuxin's complicated expression, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
She still refused to believe him!
Soon, he calmed down and prepared to return the Dragon Scale Sword to Fang Yuxin. But just as he was about to take out the Dragon Scale Sword, he froze.
Where's the Dragon Scale Sword? Where did it go? He clearly remembered that he had it in his hand!
He thought about it carefully, and suddenly he sensed something. Then he understood that because his current strength was too low, he could not use the Dragon Scale Sword. Therefore, the Dragon Scale Sword was automatically sealed and sealed in his body.
Unless the seal is lifted, he cannot return the Dragon Scale Sword to Fang Yuxin even if he wants to.
Bai Ye's face suddenly turned very ugly. In this case, even if he told Fang Yuxin about his plan, she would definitely not believe it!
Thinking of this, Bai Ye looked at Fang Yuxin and became hesitant, not knowing how to tell her.
He hesitated for a long time, opened his mouth, and said in a dry voice: "Miss Fang, I don't know what happened to the dragon scale sword, it seems to recognize me as its master, and because my strength is too low, it has automatically sealed itself, so I can't take it out. But don't worry, as long as it is unsealed, I will return it to you."
His words were sonorous and powerful. Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang looked at him with complicated eyes. Fang Yuxin didn't know whether he was sincere or not, but she felt very relieved. She couldn't help asking, "What if I say I have a way to take it out, but it will cost you your foundation and blood essence?"
She actually had no other choice but to say this deliberately as a test.
After she finished speaking, she stared at Bai Ye, observing his reaction.
Bai Ye frowned, in the last days, strength is everything, losing his essence and blood is not a big deal, but if his foundation is damaged, he will basically become an ordinary person in the future, or even worse than an ordinary person!
He still has people to protect. If he does this...
After hesitating, he looked at Fang Yuxin and said, "If you insist on doing this, I promise you, but not now. I have to send my teammates back to Taipei safely first. Their homes are there, and I can't abandon them."
When he said this, he felt a tearing pain in his heart. If it were someone else, he would never be so selfless, but the things belonged to Fang Yuxin, and he couldn't hurt her, so he could only hurt himself.
Then, he heard Fang Yuxin say: "Since it chose you, you are its owner. This is your chance. You don't have to give it back to me."
Bai Ye looked at Fang Yuxin in surprise. At that moment, the pain in his heart disappeared instantly and turned into endless warmth.
