Chapter 500: Chapter 501: Silver Horned Dragon Deer

“Indeed, fear.”

Wan Yuze looked at Zhong Lin with a hint of jealousy, not out of envy for his aptitude, but for his background.

The Sword Pavilion Disciples are few, only four in total, but quality matters more than quantity. One Sect, Two Kings; aside from the Supreme Leader, no one in the entire Sect dares to provoke them.

As long as Zhong Lin and Chi Zhonglin don’t commit any atrocious deeds, everyone in the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, even in the entire Eastern Desolate, would give them face, even Sealing King Strong People.

“Though I wasn’t overly anxious during these days, I am worried that Brother Tu might come looking for trouble one day,” Wan Yuze said with a bitter smile.

“Brother Wan is overthinking,” Zhong Lin replied.

The Outer Sect competition didn’t cause any loss to him. Although Zhong Lin didn’t have a good impression of this Brother Wan, he wasn’t about to run to authority figures. He was confident that it wouldn’t be long before he surpassed him.

“Junior Brother truly has a broad mind, it’s my petty heart assuming malice.”

Wan Yuze laughed, as if truly relieved, “Junior Brother Zhong must be here to challenge the Saint Realm! To attempt this with Yin Yang Realm cultivation is indeed extraordinary, yet we have been given a gag order, forbidding us to disclose matters regarding the Sword Tower to others.”

“Thank you for your kind intention, Brother Wan, but there’s no need for that.”

“Though I can’t disclose the checkpoints, it doesn’t prohibit giving items.”

As he spoke, Wan Yuze took out a Storage Bracelet and handed it over, “Junior Brother Zhong, here’s some stuff I prepared for you, which I believe will be helpful, please don’t decline.”

Zhong Lin’s eyes slightly narrowed, giving Wan Yuze a long, deep look.

Putting other things aside, Wan Yuze’s information is really astute! He didn’t inform anyone about his coming to challenge the Saint Realm.

Wan Yuze seemed to notice Zhong Lin’s thoughts, smiled, and said, “Junior Brother Zhong, don’t misunderstand, I just happened to learn of your intention to challenge the Saint Realm, so I’ve waited here for you, and luckily met you.”

Zhong Lin was even more surprised. If what he said was true, that means he learned it from Nan Cheng and others, implying that he’s been waiting here for at least five years.

That’s quite exaggerated!

Checking the contents of the Storage Bracelet, apart from Elixirs, there were some miscellaneous items, extremely disorganized. Zhong Lin even noticed a material known as Bitter Stone inside, it had no particular use, just an ordinary stone, the only difference being that it emitted a strong stench, and if licked, it tasted as bitter as gall.

“Brother Wan, about the things inside…”

Wan Yuze smiled meaningfully at Zhong Lin, “Don’t ask. Even if you ask, I won’t tell. They’ll have their use inside the Sword Tower.”

“…Then thank you, Brother Wan.”

“Hahaha, as long as Junior Brother Zhong accepts. Come, I’ll take you to the Sword Tower.”

After speaking, he led Zhong Lin flying toward the east of the city. Before long, a simple ancient stone tower came into view.

The tower, nine layers high, vast and deep, exuded an inexplicable charm. Ordinary Martial Artists couldn’t perceive it, but Zhong Lin, having already condensed his Spirit Domain, naturally noticed some clues.

“King’s Weapon?”

“Junior Brother Zhong has good eye power.”

Wan Yuze praised, “The Sword Tower is indeed a King’s Weapon, but it’s severely damaged, with significantly reduced power, unable to be repaired, later refined by the Supreme Leader into a place for trials. As long as Junior Brother Zhong can reach the Ninth Layer and ring the Heavenly Sound Bell, it will echo throughout Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, announcing the arrival of the Sixth Saint.”

“I see.”

“Junior Brother, take out the Token.”

Zhong Lin took the Token from his bosom, which then turned into a stream of light and flew into the Sword Tower. The tightly closed doors slowly opened.

“Thank you, Brother, for guiding me, I’m going in.”

“Then I wish Junior Brother all the success.”

Zhong Lin nodded, and directly flew into the Sword Tower entrance.

As the doors slowly closed, the smile on Wan Yuze’s face gradually receded, his lips curled slightly, a trace of maliciousness rising.

At the last moment when the doors closed, Zhong Lin suddenly turned his head, his eyes fixed tightly on him.

Wan Yuze’s expression stiffened, never expecting Zhong Lin to turn back at the last moment.

Zhong Lin was smiling brightly, waving his hand.

As the doors closed, Zhong Lin sneered.

“Tsk! Can’t even act out the whole play.”

From the start, Zhong Lin felt that Wan Yuze was somewhat fake. To become a Saint Heir in a Sacred Land, one must be proud and ambitious, how could he ’lower himself’ to apologize to a mere Yin Yang Realm Martial Artist? But his expressions and tone seemed so genuine, not fake at all.

For the average person, they’d naturally be deeply moved, maybe even turn hostility into friendship. But unfortunately, Wan Yuze nearly celebrated too soon.

“Did you really think I’d let you off? If it weren’t for the good fortune of being accepted by Master, who knows what I would have ended up as. I planned to settle this score later, but you dared to play dirty tricks on me, one day, I’ll end you.”

Zhong Lin’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, sentencing Wan Yuze to death.

Ignoring these vexatious matters, he scanned the entire First Layer of the Sword Tower.

The surroundings were crafted from some unknown black stone, emanating metallic reverberations when struck, and when he flicked his fingers, a Sword Qi shot from the tip, but didn’t cause any damage upon hitting the wall. Instead, it was absorbed by the wall.

His eyes lit up with this discovery, suddenly having the urge to dismantle the black stone and integrate it into the Donghuang Bell.

Step, step, step!

During his contemplation, a series of footsteps echoed from afar, and a large figure emerged from the darkness.

Looking up, it was actually a massive Deer Demon, towering a hundred meters high, with a body as white as snow, fur like jade, muscles knotting, and Qi-Blood boiling fiercely, exuding an explosive demonic aura.

The most eye-catching, however, was the horn atop the Deer Demon’s head, silver-white sheen, piercing the sky with a menacing presence, full of Dragon Power making one doubt none of its contained Power.

Silver Horned Dragon Deer.

Zhong Lin immediately recognized the Deer Demon’s identity, precisely the Silver Horned Dragon Deer Nan Cheng mentioned.

“Oh! Another person has come to climb the Sword Tower, but the cultivation is a bit low. Since when did Heavenly Sword Sacred Land’s requirements become so low?”

The Silver Horned Dragon Deer opened its mouth, eerie echoes resonating, yet with an annoying tone.

Zhong Lin raised his brows, he’s seen many Demon Beasts, and slain quite a few, but this was the first time he’s heard one speak.

The White Tiger in the Five Elements Secret Realm doesn’t count, strictly speaking, it isn’t a Demon Beast.

“Boy, I smell Wind Bell Grass on you, hand it over quickly.”

The Silver Horned Dragon Deer lowered its head to sniff, then swiftly shrank its form, moving its limbs as it approached Zhong Lin.

“Wind Bell Grass?”

“Don’t play dumb, I can smell it, hurry and take it out.”
