"Hahaha! The Heavenly Sword Gate is gone... Let's go in and see... What treasures did the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King leave in there!"
"Everyone, come together! This is a rare opportunity... If we wait for the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King to come and repair it, you and I, with our swordsmanship talents, will definitely not be able to take advantage of the opportunity!"
After recovering from the shock of Lin Tianming's sword opening the Sky Gate, the spiritual energy ascending gods at the scene looked at the spiritual energy sword Sky Gate that had not been repaired for a long time. Each of them wanted to borrow Lin Tianming's light and enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords together to seek opportunities.
However, when the person who reacted the fastest and rushed to the front among them was about to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords, the two golden sword statues of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit Kings on the left and right instantly released golden sword intent that was faster than their speed.
Boom! All the spiritual energy ascending gods who wanted to rely on Lin Tianming to pick up the leak were shocked by the golden sword intent released by the statue of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King and flew backwards, screaming in pain.
"I... I... my spiritual energy power... was destroyed... by the golden sword intent released by the statue!"
“Me… me too! Ahem… as a god, I… have fallen directly back to a mortal state that is even inferior to that of a newly awakened psychic ascender!”
"Ten Thousand Sword Spirits... Lord Spirit King... I... I was wrong! I shouldn't have dreamed of the opportunity that shouldn't belong to me... Please... Please give me back my power! I don't want to fall back to being a mortal!"
With so many lessons learned from the past, the slower spiritual ascending gods behind them also slammed on the brakes one after another.
He was afraid that if he rushed forward carelessly, he would be destroyed on the spot by the sword intent of the statue of Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King.
Those spiritual ascending gods whose power was destroyed by the golden sword statue howled for a while, then began to kneel in front of the statue of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King on both sides, kowtowing continuously and begging the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King to return their destroyed power to them.
However, no matter how they kowtowed, the golden sword statue of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King remained motionless, but was reshaping the spiritual sword gate at a visible speed.
In the deepest hall of the Temple of Ten Thousand Swords, the Wind-whispering Priestess who was with the Spirit King of Ten Thousand Swords saw this scene and frowned slightly.
"King Wanjian, are you going too far?"
"Too much? If the sword-wielding opportunities inside are not good enough, they will surely die if they go in. I am just letting them suffer a little, so that they can remember the lesson of not forcing things that do not belong to them. I am saving them, and they should be grateful to me!"
The King of Ten Thousand Swords habitually changed into an arrogant sitting posture with his long legs crossed and a disdainful smile on his face.
Too lazy to continue looking at the psychic ascended gods outside who couldn't even get in the door, the Spirit King of Ten Thousand Swords snapped his fingers, and the psychic curtain image that appeared in the center of the hall turned into Lin Tianming.
As soon as she saw Lin Tianming's face, her pretty face, which had a hint of smile just now, couldn't help but reveal a look of displeasure.
To be honest, she really didn't like Lin Tianming, who was trying to force her to unite with the Kingdom of Genes and the Kingdom of Machinery.
Noticing the change in the expression of the King of Ten Thousand Swords, the Wind Whispering Witch's tightly furrowed brows relaxed instead.
"King of Ten Thousand Swords, what do you think of Lin Tianming's talent in swordsmanship?"
"Not as good as this king!"
The King of Ten Thousand Swords answered the Wind Whispering Priestess without any hesitation.
The Wind Whispering Witch knew the character of the King of Ten Thousand Swords very well, so she was not at all surprised that he would answer like this.
The Wind Whispering Witch sitting in her seat continued, "Then do you think Lin Tianming can pass your Ten Thousand Sword Valley Trial perfectly?"
"Want to pass the Ten Thousand Swords Valley Trial perfectly? You think too highly of this kid!"
As if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, the King of Ten Thousand Swords smiled contemptuously.
"I admit...his talent is amazing. I'm not surprised at all that he was able to successfully walk out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords, but..."
“But the Ten Thousand Swords Valley has all my sword heritage. If you want to pass it perfectly, you have to inherit all my sword heritage, especially the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb and the Sword Heavenly Monument, which contain the supreme sword mysteries.
Over the past countless years, my Spiritual Divine Kingdom has produced so many sword geniuses who have been able to enter the Ten Thousand Swords Valley, but no one has ever completely comprehended all the sword traditions in it. Just relying on Lin Tianming... it's impossible!"
As he spoke, the King of Ten Thousand Swords put on an attitude as if he was the best in swordsmanship, and his expression was as arrogant as it could be.
Seeing the expression of the King of Ten Thousand Swords, who looked down upon all the others as he stood at the top of the sword path, the Wind Whispering Witch was not angry at all. Instead, she listened patiently to the King's arrogant remarks.
"So you are sure that Lin Tianming cannot pass the level perfectly?"
"Of course!"
When it comes to swordplay, the King of Ten Thousand Swords is extremely confident.
Little did she know that she was gradually falling into the trap set by the Wind Whispering Witch.
"How about we make a bet? If Lin Tianming passes the Ten Thousand Swords Valley perfectly and comprehends all the sword arts inheritances within, you will agree to represent the entire Psionic Kingdom in an alliance with the Genetic Kingdom and the Mechanical Kingdom."
As soon as she heard the words of the Wind Whispering Priestess, the King of Ten Thousand Swords knew that the Wind Whispering Priestess was trying to trick her.
But she, the King of Ten Thousand Swords, was full of pride, and she was confident that Lin Tianming would never be able to fully comprehend all of her sword arts inheritance.
So even if this was clearly a trap set by the Wind Whispering Witch, she would still fall for it! Looking down at the Wind Whispering Witch sitting in the hall below with a disdainful expression as if she had seen through her trick, the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King continued her extremely arrogant remarks.
"Why am I the only one who loses the bet? What would you do if Lin Tianming just walked out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords normally and did not perfectly inherit my sword art heritage?"
The Wind Whispering Witch also told the truth about her bet.
“If I lose, I will unite with you and support your decision to reject the alliance of the three ascended kingdoms.
With me and my Wind Whisper Temple supporting you, Lin Tianming cannot sway most of the forces of the Psychic Kingdom to join his alliance despite the pressure from you and me, relying solely on the influence of the Dark Underworld and the Holy Mountain of Light.
I just don’t know if you, the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King… dare to accept it?”
"Why not? I am the top swordsman of the Psychic Divine Kingdom. This is a bet that I will definitely win. I accept it!"
…
At the entrance to the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords, Lin Tianming's psychic imaging box fully recorded the scene where the King of Ten Thousand Swords and the Wind Whispering Witch made the bet.
Confident that she would not lose, she deliberately recorded her extremely arrogant and pretentious remarks for Lin Tianming.
This was not the first time that Lin Tianming had heard the arrogant and disrespectful remarks of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King. He had become accustomed to it.
Ever since the Star Key Angel brought him to see her, Wan Jian Ling Wang knew that he was going to record her arrogant remarks and wait for a slap in the face to show them to her later. She was really not afraid of being slapped in the face in the future, and she took the initiative to help Lin Tianming record her arrogant remarks again and again.
Lin Tianming calmly stared at the arrogant posture of the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King manifested by the psychic image box, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Mistress, you really know how to put pressure on me, but... this is also good! I can see the expression on the face of the arrogant woman, the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King, getting swollen earlier!"
