Light Cultivation
Eps. 156 — Siege
"I didn't expect to meet any of the descendants from the Nordic World here, that explains everything..."
Jian Chen could hear Lily sighing in it, hearing him seemed to know something Jian Chen asked him but Lily felt reluctant to tell.
"Nordic World is one of the world that is quite large where in the world is only led by one person, there is no Empire or country that is formed there, all territories are ruled by one of the most powerful so-called God existences..."
Lily did not explain any further, Jian Chen realized there was a lot that the girl knew but Lily was unwilling to explain.
"Brother Jian, sorry for my selfishness but can you..." Lan Qiaoqiao asked Jian Chen for help openly to help her with her problem, finding their parents.
Broadly speaking, currently their strength is not strong enough to travel to find the heirloom that his mother meant.
"I can't do it, just like you I have problems in this empire."
Jian Chen then swung his hand which instantly made the five girls feel a hot sensation on his back as a result of the symbol from the Curse Seal.
"Sister Jian, what are you doing to us?" Lan Qiaoqiao said limply, the hot sensation on her back really hurt just now.
"I lighten the curse seal on you, with this if I die one day, you will not die from the seal. Even so you guys remain under my contract..."
Jian Chen realized his mistake in the five girls binding them in a seal, thus loosening his fifth freedom slightly.
Jian Chen had indeed deliberately not let go of them as a whole especially since the five had killed many others. It was no exaggeration for the five girls to be referred to as trained assassins.
Although he was sure they were not bad people but most of them acted on the situation, with the seal stuck, Jian Chen wished they had not killed too much.
Lan Qiaoqiao hurriedly bowed and thanked Jian Chen, as well as her four sisters who despite being silent yet they looked delighted.
"There's one thing that has intrigued me all along, how can you hide your cultivation until it's invisible to others?"
The five girls glanced at each other for a moment before chuckling, Lan Qiaoqiao smiled at Jian Chen. "Brother Jian, shouldn't I be the one to say that to you?"
Until now, whether it was Lan Qiaoqiao and her four sisters were still unable to palpitate Jian Chen's cultivation. They could only guess that Jian Chen was stronger than them.
Jian Chen smiled awkwardly, he could not respond to that any further.
"Other people can only feel my cultivation but not with my sisters, it's because our cultivation is interconnected with me as the center."
Jian Chen raised one eyebrow. "I don't understand?"
"More simply, if I raise my cultivation then my four sisters also experience the same thing. Our cultivation is interconnected, I go up one stage then automatically my sister's cultivation also goes up one stage."
Lan Qiaoqiao did not continue her explanation further, she directly practiced it in front of Jian Chen that was by absorbing the spirit stones previously given.
After some time cultivating Lan Qiaoqiao finally broke through to the Earth Realm realm, Lan Qiaoqiao absorbed five spirit stones in total so she was at the 5th Stage of the Earth Realm.
Jian Chen's breathing was restrained, not because of Lan Qiaoqiao's speed in increasing his fast cultivation but rather on the strength of his four sisters who had been increasing along with Lan Qiaoqiao breaking through.
"I've only seen such interconnected cultivations for the first time in my life..." Lily observed their condition more closely. "But since they come from different worlds then it shouldn't be quite surprising."
Jian Chen sighed hearing Lily's statement, he still did not expect to meet any unusual people here.
After Jian Chen recovered all his inner strength, he then invited all five of them to come out of the ancient tomb.
Right out of the tomb door, Jian Chen was startled by the hundreds of soldiers who had surrounded the tomb. Jian Chen's face wrinkled as he realized the soldier did not look at him well while looking at him.
Yun Longxia, or Prince of Longxia, was originally going to pierce the ancient tomb the next day after hearing the news there was a strange phenomenon there.
The phenomenon was a darkness that appeared in the daytime, a darkness that was meant to be nothing but the result of Jian Chen's previous technique of absorbing light.
The warriors who experienced the darkness assumed that the phenomenon occurred as a warning of the ancient tomb so that no one entered it.
Prince Longxia hesitated to enter the tomb but his personal bodyguard, the Sword of Satan, persuaded him to stay there and he would protect him.
The situation suddenly changed when there was other news from the ancient tomb but this time it was the sound of a roar. That roar was the roar of the dragon from Jian Chen's breakthrough.
Prince Longxia finally decided to go to the tomb today because he realized that someone had entered and accidentally disturbed the creatures in the tomb.
Not only were his guards brought there, even the entire Mayor Daiji soldiers were coming along with him in full force.
The military of Daiji City cannot be underestimated, their Mayor has two strong warriors in it, the swordsman is in Alam Hampa.
Although it could not be juxtaposed with the power of the Demonic Sword but the Hampa Realm remained a high existence that could not be underestimated.
Thus now that surrounded the Ancient Tomb there were 3 Empty warriors, dozens of Life Realms and the rest dozens of Soul Realms.
Prince Longxia is clearly aware, whoever managed to escape from the ancient tomb must have high strength, therefore he directed all his soldiers.
Not long after they waited near the tomb, there was the sound of footsteps approaching. There were 6 of them, with one of them being a man.
Longxia's brows furrowed even a little surprised when he found there were five girls who had faces as thin as twins.
Throughout his life he had only first met someone who had twins like this even though he was also a twin.
Not only were the five girls beautiful, but their silver hair color was also very beautiful and charming. Longxia who had not been interested in a girl immediately fell in love with her fifth beauty.
For Longxia, getting a woman is as easy as turning a palm.
Given his handsome face as well as his high status, it was not difficult for the woman to have him. The same reason made the prince desire to want the five beautiful girls.
Longxia's vision moved to the only young man in the group.
His face immediately showed dissatisfaction with the young man because he was with the five twin girls but for now there are things that he must prioritize.
"Brother Swordsman, my name is Yun Longxia who leads this army. Can I know the swordsman's name so we can get to know each other?" Longxia smiled as gently as possible.
Jian Chen smiled faintly, he could see the man's charade.
Even ordinary people will immediately realize if surrounded like this a sign that the situation is not okay or bad, Jian Chen without needing to think any further already knew Longxia's purpose was to obtain the thing he had obtained in the ancient tomb.
"Brother Jian, this is..." Lan Qiaoqiao pulled on Jian Chen's robe, feeling so anxious in the braids like this.
"Just calm down, I'll make sure you stay safe..." Jian Chen smiled warmly making Lan Qiaoqiao so slightly misbehaved.
"Jian Chen, you're aware of the situation, aren't you?" Lily asked from inside.
"I see, our situation is really serious right now..."
Without further ado Jian Chen took out the Asura God Sword that was still sheathed in his hand, he was actually unwilling to use this sword first but the situation forced him now.
