Chapter 1645
"Is that all you’re capable of?"
While James was upset about the situation, a voice spoke out, and the stone door behind him was pushed open.
Tapio walked over.
While walking over, he stopped and said, "Don’t attack me, James.I have no ill intentions.I was simply using it as an
opportunity to teach you not to trust others.If I was really set on killing you, I’d have done it while you were still
injured.Why would I leave you there? Don't you agree?" He explained with a smile.
However, he was greeted with another lash of powerful Sword Energy.
Tapio quickly clung to the stone wall to dodge James’ attacks.
The stone walls were robust.
James' current strength was not enough to break the walls and could only leave deep cuts on it at most.
"James, calm down! I can lead you out of this underground labyrinth.Stop attacking and listen to me first,"
Tapio tried to reason with him while dodging the attacks.
After James let off some steam, he felt much of his anger subside.He stopped attacking and sheathed the Primorial
Dragon Blade.
Then, he looked at Tapio, who had stopped moving, and asked, "Why did you do such a thing? Who ordered you to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdo it? Was it Tyrus?"
Although James trusted people easily, he relied on his judgment and intuition before doing so.
Tapio did not seem like a bad person to him.
At the very least, he did not have a wicked nature.
Thus, James chose to believe him.
"Yeah." Tapio said with a smile, "My master, Tyrus, has actually been looking out for you for a very long time.It
started ever since you fled from Cansington to the Southern Plains.How do you think you were able to survive on
the battlefield for the past ten years? Perhaps you thought you survived simply because you're lucky?"
James looked at Tapio with a questioning expression.
"Sigh.Let’s leave this talk for later.Follow me.I’ll lead you through the labyrinth and to where the First Sword Art is
located." Tapio stayed silent.
He put his hands behind his back, turned around, and walked off.
James followed behind him.
This time, it only took them ten minutes to exit the labyrinth with Tapio leading the way.
Afterward, Tapio solved many mechanisms and led James to the crypt of the mausoleum.
Another mechanism was located on one side of the crypt’s wall.
Tapio immediately activated the mechanism.
Suddenly, the ground split open, and a passage opened up on the ground.
"You better study it carefully!" Tapio called out loudly.
James fell through the passage and plummeted to the floor below him.
When he finally realized the situation, the passage above his head was already shut tight.
He used his True Energy and flew up to the closed passage.He exerted all his strength but could not push it open
again.
"What the hell is that guy doing?"
James was puzzled.
After that, he let his body fall along the passageway.
After descending a hundred meters, he reached a stone chamber.
The stone chamber was relatively small and was only about 300 square meters in width and height.
The whole place was empty.
The stone chamber was pitch black.
Despite being a martial artist and a strong one at that, he was only capable of making out a small portion of his
surroundings.
He could vaguely see some pictographs engraved on the stone wall.
The pictographs started with a scene of some people fighting a phoenix.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJames was intrigued the moment he saw the first pictograph.He completely disregarded his situation and carefully
inspected the carvings on the wall.
The stone wall recorded the event of Finnegan leading strong men into the sea.
After that, it illustrated their encounter and battle with the phoenix.
Although they were defeated, the phoenix ended up injured.
Finnegan managed to acquire and bring back some of the phoenix’s blood.
After returning, King Quavon used the phoenix blood and countless medicinal herbs to refine the Novenary Golden
Pills.
The carvings on the wall also recorded the forging of the Primordial Sword and the development of the First Sword
Art.
The next few pictographs recorded the First Sword Art technique.
James was deeply fascinated by the First Sword Art upon seeing it.
He stood in the stone chamber for a long time before he finally finished processing it.
After going through it, he took a deep breath.
"This sword technique is one that can’t exist in our world.
"It’s too powerful for the rest of the world.It’d be a disaster if someone with bad intentions learns it."
After James memorized the First Sword Art, he immediately pulled out the Primordial Dragon Blade. He repeatedly
slashed at the stone wall and destroyed the carvings detailing everything about the First Sword Art.
