Light Cultivation
Eps. 148 — Sending Ancient Tomb II
Jian Chen let go of the cold as the earth rat was near and jumped towards him.
Instantly the temperature in the room decreased quite drastically making the ground rat stealth movement become slightly disturbed. Jian Chen took the opportunity to kill them one by one.
The cold temperature of Jian Chen was not as working as he expected, their feathers protecting him from the cold.
From the age and strength, the earth rat stealth here is much stronger than when the competition used to be, the average lifespan of these demons is around 50 years and their number is much more.
If Jian Chen were not now in the Earth Realm and his inner strength already numbered in the hundreds he might not be able to resist them.
One by one Jian Chen managed to kill the Earth Rats, every one that was hit by a swing by his sword even though only a small scratch was enough to make the rats freeze to death.
Jian Chen had to admit that Ziyun's ice technique ability was extremely high, the heirloom he used now was like being a celestial heirloom.
The earth rats continued to attack Jian Chen from various directions, when he started to be surrounded he would instantly disappear and appear at another point, then the earth rat returned to chase after him.
Jian Chen used his swordplay art nimbly, every time the earth rat jumped he could slash it in one swing.
Within a few minutes Jian Chen finally killed all the earth rats, blood spots stuck to the clothes as well as the floor of the room.
"Hm, it's always hard to face them..." Jian Chen rubbed the sweat on his forehead.
Although he could defeat the horde of earth rats but facing them was no easy feat, Jian Chen thought it might be better to fight against a hundred warriors than to face those earth rats which obviously caused him trouble.
Jian Chen instantly took out every single demon gem after, with the age and number of that demon he was confident he could reach a thousand inner power circles.
"Hm, this is more than enough to make me rise to the cultivation stage of the Semi Crystal God of Light..." Jian Chen looked at the pile of stealth gems on top of his palm before inserting them into the space ring.
Around the room was a passageway leading to the next place, Jian Chen continued his journey through the ancient tomb.
Each room was separated by a long hallway, Jian Chen stepped in the hallway but Lily's voice stopped him.
"You better not be careless, use that weird eye technique of yours, no one knows in this place whether there are traps or not." Lily warned.
Jian Chen nodded, without being told he was already planning to do so.
In the hallway, Jian Chen had only realized that no swordsman had reached his current point. That earth rat seemed to kill whoever came in.
Just a few steps away, Jian Chen then discovered there were many traps from the floor on his incandescent.
The trap would be active if stepped on, if it was someone else then it would be hard to notice it while Jian Chen could find it using the eyes of the heavens. Jian Chen was finally able to get through the trap easily.
He finally arrived at the end of the hall and found the next room, not much different from the first room, which distinguished only this second room was filled with gold and other treasures.
Jian Chen did not immediately take the gold as his gaze was fixed on a membrane of formation attached around the mountain of gold.
The formation seemed like it would activate if Jian Chen touched his gold coins.
Jian Chen nodded. "My teacher once taught me how to set up a formation and undo it. Looking from this formation it seems like I can break it."
In martial arts, a formation is usually used to protect a property or an heirloom by warriors so that no one steals it.
Formations can take many different forms, such as formations with deep power techniques, magic formations, spirit formations, and there are also life formations where to create and break them must use one's life.
The formation that was in front of Jian Chen was a formation with a form of deep power, it was not difficult to break it as long as he rewrote the formation.
Jian Chen touched the membrane of the formation and then his index finger wrote down something in the form of a different character. When the writing was finished, slowly the membrane around the golden mountain was glowing before dimming and disappearing slowly.
"Hm, this formation has been around for hundreds of years, who made it inside the ground like this..." Jian Chen muttered softly.
"This Princess is even more surprised when you break such a complex formation. Actually you're a martial genius or something, considering that in your first life you were just an ordinary kid."
Jian Chen smiled faintly, Lily clearly knew a lot about him.
Indeed what Lily said was not wrong, before Jian Chen met his teacher he was no more than an ordinary swordsman with low talent.
Jian Chen did not even master any technique other than the swordplay taught by his father, nor did he master it as a whole.
If Jian Chen were now not a reincarnation from the past as well as not using the cultivation of the Light God perhaps his strength was now still in the Spirit Realm.
Jian Chen did not think of it any further, He stepped onto the pile of gold before his gaze fell onto the purplish-colored ring.
Jian Chen's eyes widened upon recognizing the ring, "Ametish-type Space Ring, I didn't expect to be here..."
The amethyst type space ring is the highest type of space ring of the other two space rings. The one who had it was only a few people in the Dragon Empire and it could be counted with fingers.
This ring has no space limit in it, in contrast to the silver type space ring and the gold type that has a broad limit.
There were nine amethyst space rings lying around, Jian Chen took off his golden space ring before replacing it with an amethyst space ring.
Now that he could absorb even larger objects, even Jian Chen did not have to touch the objects on his target, simply extending a hand and draining the inner power on the space ring then He can suck it at a certain distance.
Jian Chen then sucked out the gold piles of coins without any left.
The room that was originally filled with mountains of glittering objects has now left no ludes.
As Jian Chen thought that this ancient tomb was the limit but it turned out that his conjecture was wrong, in the room was another passageway leading to the next room.
"Is it possible that the pile of gold was the first dish of this tomb?" Jian Chen guessed the possibility that in the ancient tomb there was an heirloom or something more valuable than money.
Jian Chen walked back to the next room.
