"After killing the group of Ironback Apes, when I told you that if you will use your flying type martial arts skill in the competition, you can easily rank in the top ten. But at that time you told me that you will not use your flying type martial arts skill in the competition. Obviously you didn't want to attract anyone's attention. Again, if there was anyone else in your place, they would have used the flying type martial arts skill to win and rank in the competition as well as to show off in front of everyone."
"From this, it could be seen how different you are from others. But again, it is not enough to make me trust you. I am just betting on you. Just as you told me at that time to keep the information of you having a flying type martial arts skill a secret. I also hope and want you to keep my secret to yourself."
"I am telling you all of this because I don't want you to have a negative opinion about me. Don't think that I am arrogant and I am not putting you in my eyes. I am just stating the fact that you will not be able to injure me next time if we fight."
Lin Hao fell silent after saying this. He just kept staring at Ye Xiao, wanting to see his reaction.
On the other hand, Ye Xiao was also shocked, shocked to the extend that he could not be more shocked.
He never thought that Lin Hao will tell him his most precious and valuable secret just like this. He even told him that he doesn't believe him. He was just betting on trusting him.
And Lin Hao's lucky chance, isn't that the same as him. Lin Hao's destiny was changed after he encountered with his lucky chance. His cultivation increased by so much. He comprehended the Sword Way. And who knows if there was also something more or not.
Ye Xiao was also exactly the same as Lin Hao. His destiny also changed after the Heavenly Pearl entered into his heart. But his lucky chance was even more heaven defying than Lin Hao's. Lin Hao become a Origin Core Realm martial artist in two years after encountering with his lucky chance but he cultivated to the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm in just one month's time.
And more to that, he was not far away from becoming a cultivator of Origin Core Realm. He was confident that if he want, he can level up to Origin Core Realm in less than two week.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThen he thought that if it was him on the place of Lin Hao, would he tell his secret to anyone?
The answer was no. He definitely would not tell anyone about his most precious secret, Heavenly Pearl.
"I promise, I will not tell anyone about your sect. Never ever." Ye Xiao promised Lin Hao to keep his secret to himself.
He really is a man of character. Even after knowing that I have a heaven defying treasure in my possession, there is not a single trace of greed in his eyes.
Lin Hao thought to himself and nodded his head. He also felt relief after seeing no trace of greed in Ye Xiao's eyes. He betted on the right person.
"Lin... Hao... Wins this battle" The host first hesitated a little upon seeing that Ye Xiao and Lin Hao didn't continued to fight and after seeing that none of them responded him, he announce the result.
After the result of the battle was announced, Ye Xiao stood up and walked down from the arena. And just as he walked, he also said to Lin Hao, "No matter how fast your cultivation is and how much powerful you become, I will definitely win our next fight."
"Remember to cultivate well because next time, no matter what, it will be your loss." Ye Xiao waved his hand in the air and left the arena.
Lin Hao kept staring at the back of Ye Xiao. He was surprised to see that even after knowing everything about him, Ye Xiao's confidence did not decreased even a little bit instead he found a trace of fighting spirit in Ye Xiao's voice.
Only when Ye Xiao descended from the arena did he moved his gaze from him and shook his head. He didn't believe that Ye Xiao can still be his opponent after some time.
At this time, something trembled inside his sea of consciousness. Lin Hao was stunned for a moment and then he suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Xiao again in astonishment.
I will wait for you.
Lin Hao muttered to himself while clenching his fist.
He didn't said what his lucky chance was to Ye Xiao. His lucky chance was actually a sword. It was a broken sword. He did not know where this sword came from and what grade of weapon it was.
Two years ago, he entered into a small cave of a big mountain near the outskirts of the Azure Dragon Mountain Range to avoid the heavy rain. Seeing that the rain was not going to stop soon so he decided to go deep into the small cave. But just as he went around 100 meters deep into the cave, he accidently fell into a deep pit and since he was very weak, he did not manage to see how deep the pit was and fainted in mid-air while falling into the deep pit.
When he woke up, he found himself outside the small cave. He was so scared that time that his leg started to tremble in fear. He did not understand exactly how he came out of the pit and not only he came out of the pit, he even came out of the small cave while he was still unconscious.
Although he was scared at that time, he still went inside the the small cave again in hope of solving this mystery. But once again, he was puzzled after entering the small cave because this time, this small cave was really very small. He did not even went 50 meter deep inside but he was already at the end of the cave.
He searched everywhere inside the cave to find something but found nothing.
But suddenly a loud 'boom' sounded in his head and his consciousness appeared in a boundless ocean.
Lin Hao was greatly shocked at that time and he felt even more shocked when he raised his head. There was a huge sword floating into the sky.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat huge sword was thousands of feet high. It pierced through the cloud and was floating above the ocean. And what surprised him even more was that this sword was actually not complete. It was a broken sword. Its half body from the tip was nowhere to be seen.
He also felt that this ocean was familiar yet very unfamiliar to him. But again after looking around he understand that it was actually his sea of consciousness.
The thousand feet long sword suddenly shook a little and a white ball of light came out from it and floated toward Lin Hao and stopped after arriving in front of him.
At that moment he unknowingly extended his hand toward the broken sword. The moment his hand made contact with the ball of white light, he immediately felt as if his head was about to split open. He was already very weak and the pain that suddenly assaulted him made him want to die.
After he successfully endured the pain, he felt as if a connection was made between them. And there was another large amount of memories that was not his. This was a memory that contained a heaven defying cultivation technique as well as a martial arts technique.
Both of these things were of unknown rank.
The cultivation Technique was known as Great Sutra Of The Nine Heavens.
And the martial arts skill was known as the Transversing Shadow Sword.
There was a total of nine levels in the Great Sutra Of The Nine Heavens and there was a total of seven slashes in the Transversing Shadow Sword.
The Sword itself was known as the Emperor Star Sword.
From that moments onward, he started cultivating the Great Sutra Of The Nine Heavens and after successfully cultivating this cultivation technique to the second layer, he immediately broke through to the Origin Core Realm.
He was not able to practice the Transversing Shadow Sword because if he wanted to start practicing this technique, he needed to first comprehend at least the first stage of the Sword Way which is Sword Light. After breaking through to the Origin Core Realm, he also managed to successfully comprehend the first stage of the Sword Way, Sword Light.
But it was already the time of the second round of the competition so he was not able to practice this martial arts skill. He thought that he would start practicing the Transversing Shadow Sword after the competition.
