Chapter 533 - Growth and the Imminent First Awakening
“Xiaoyue, come and fight with me!” Yue Bai was the most combative girl among Jiang Xiaoyue’s friends. Having watched Mr. Fang’s astonishing plays, she was eager to try her hand in the dojo.
However, her subclass was noblesse, the subclass of the person who had been beaten senseless by Mr. Fang.
In the dojo, Jiang Xiaoyue’s mage character stood further away and auto attacked and used Palm Blast. Then, she auto attacked and used Dragon Fang.
– One minute later –
“Auch!” Yue Bai’s noblesse character dropped to the ground.
“This doesn’t count! Let’s do it again!”
…
A demon slayer appeared among the female mages of the Nanhua Faction.
A demon slayer would become a demonbane after the first awakening.
On the screen next to the Xichi Spiritual Master’s, a woman with long white hair was using a serpent sword, looking like a shadow or a whip, covering all angles from all directions.
Hysterical laughter sounded by the Xichi Spiritual Master. “Ahahahaha–!”
“…” The Xichi Spiritual Master’s face darkened as she said, “Senior Sister, don’t always mimic the laughter of the crazy woman (Demon Slayer) in the game…”
In the dungeon, the Xichi Spiritual Master and her other teammates were all dead while the demon slayer was still waving her serpent sword. “Ahahahaha…”
Everyone was at a loss for words.
Mo Xian’s face darkened as she said, “She knows nothing but yelling ‘hahaha’.”
She felt so tortured in her mind that she wanted to move to another seat; her spirit was polluted.
…
On the other side, Song Qingfeng and other young men had become excited after watching Mr. Fang’s match.
Song Qingfeng said, “Young Master Lin, let’s fight!”
Tang Yu chimed in, “Brother, count me in!”
An Cheng said, “Do you want to try the glacier spell? It’s super powerful!”
Wang Xie added, “I want to test the power of the swift spell.”
“Come! Call Old Xun and others over! Let’s have a 3V3 battle!”
It was lively in the shop.
…
The Sky Relic was the biggest relic that the ancient families on the Spiritual State had discovered in the last 1,000 years.
Some rumors claimed that this relic had fallen from the Upper Realm, and there were countless treasures inside! It couldn’t be emptied out!
This relic might contain many secrets of the world.
For example, it might explain why no one had ascended in the past thousands of years.
For example, it might contain the reason why the prehistoric relics were destroyed.
The most eye-catching feature was the large number of celestial objects that were there. If people could uncover and make use of these objects, the cultivation world of Spiritual State might regain their previous prosperity and glory of the prehistoric time.
It was a prosperous world beyond the current cultivators’ imagination.
The ancient families indeed had ancient inheritance, but they were long only compared with the current forces on Spiritual State.
Even now, the ancient families were working hard to explore the relics and study the ancient cultivation civilization. However, after a long time, they still couldn’t conquer the land of the ancient cultivators.
About 3,000 years ago, Zixiao Spiritual Master had prophesied that if one day, the cultivators of this land could uncover the ancient celestial relic, the cultivators and even warriors of Spiritual State would achieve a tremendous leap.
They might even be able to solve the many mysteries from the prehistoric times.
“Old Academy Master… Vice Academy Master Xiao has returned from the Sky Relic…” Inside Heavenly Academy, an old man was quietly lounging on an old-fashioned wooden armchair, seeming to be resting with his eyes closed.
Hearing these words, a sharp glint appeared in this old man’s turbid eyes.
-Meanwhile, in the gloomy sky above Heavenly Academy-
A low voice boomed while two pairs of eyes appeared in the darkness and stared at Heavenly Academy intently. “Sky Relic…?”
“Don’t we need to stop them…?” the other voice said.
“Not necessary. What we need to do now is to improve the new plan and stop anything from disturbing our current plan.”
“Right… the people coming back from that place are either dead or had gone crazy. I’m afraid that the ancient families all have headaches.”
…
Regardless of how turbulent the hidden currents were outside, Origins Internet Club was as tranquil as usual. The players in the shop were oblivious to those hidden currents.
In fact, many people only moved in their small circles, talking about the novel things that they had seen each day.
More and more people entered this novel and amazing world. The disciples of the ancient families, including Tang Yu and Wang Xie, were growing with other adventurers in the game.
As to the grand warriors and cultivators with high-level cultivation strengths, they had higher purpose and ambitions while they studied the novel combat techniques, spiritual spells, and spiritual artifacts.
Gradually, the players moved from level 20 to level 30 and then from level 30 to level 40.
In the Sky Tower, these adventurers witnessed the grand tower that was leading to the sky. On Behemoth, they saw ‘Apostles’ for the first time and met Eighth Apostle Lotus.
Regardless if they were completing missions or adventuring in the dungeons, the players and the characters in the game shared the same goals.
For the players, they wanted to strengthen themselves in both the dojo and the dungeons while they enjoyed the fun of adventures.
For the characters in the game, such as priests who wanted to destroy imposters and the mechanics who wanted to restore brightness and order in the chaotic Empyrean,
They accepted all kinds of missions and investigated weird cases one after another. After the Sky Tower was sealed, they searched for another road leading to the Empyrean and the truth behind the formation of weird places such as the Shadow Thunderland.
During the process, the fledgling players who had made all kinds of mistakes at the beginning of the game gradually matured.
In King’s Ruin, the blind swordsman who had blundered at the beginning now waved his short sword, and the ice blades and flames turned into dazzling spiritual flowers.
When the huge Spirit Crescent lashed out, countless monsters were turned into ashes as darkness and brightness alternated.
On Song Qingfeng’s screen, the male fighter who had struck his teammate with a brick was now very powerful with his leg techniques.
With blazing flames engulfing his legs, each kick looked like a lunging and roaring fire dragon. In the constant cultivation and battles, Song Qingfeng’s fist and leg techniques had reached an ultimate level.
Meanwhile, the first group of players of the game had leved up higher and higher.
In King’s Ruin, Nalan Hongwu slashed out his lightsabre, and this sword was as fast as blurry shadows. The sword energies created a dragon head, and it swept across the screen swiftly. Raging Dragon Slash!
With his eyes covered, Zong Wu slightly moved his short sword upward.
A streak of burning flames spread on the ground. Then, a huge fire ball flew up and burst with vicious force. Fire Wave Sword
The explosion range stopped right before Nalan Hongwu who was fighting nearby.
Except for a hot wind brushing his face, Nalan Hongwu felt no burning on his skin.
Then, many wild and fierce strikes turned into a wave of dark purple spirit swords. Illusion Sword Dance “We passed!” With an exclamation, bright light appeared on their bodies, signaling that they had leveled up.
At this moment, Zong Wu came before his trainer G.S.D with a short sword on his back.
Without any aid, he moved just like an ordinary person who had good eyes.
A new mission appeared in his mission list: [Awakening— Seem Blind but Not Blind, Seem to Have Eyes but No Eyes]
