Chapter 675 - Fulfill the Promise and Meet at Mount Tai

Chapter 675: Fulfill the Promise and Meet at Mount Tai
At the summit of Mount Tai was a man in a brocade robe with purplish-black borders. He sat alone at the edge of a cliff. Before him were stones that seemed to have been cut by a sword. They were as flat as a stage. There were two wine cups on it, along with a porcelain pot of wine.
He poured himself wine and drank from it. He seemed incredibly satisfied with his life.
It had been a few months since anyone had last seen him. That man of few words had a cold face with a hint of age. There was a third-echelon divine weapon that countless martial artists longed for lying casually against the stone stage.
The man stared beyond the cliff expressionlessly and drank cup after cup. His robes fluttered madly against the wind as if he was about to be blown off the cliff at any moment and fly with the wind.
Quite a number of people had already arrived at the area, but they remained in the distance.
No one dared get closer.
There was someone who tried to go over and strike up a conversation the day before, but One Emperor had just performed a simple sword draw and sheath. That person was not even able to activate his body fortification in time before he ended up lying in his own pool of blood.
There were many people who did not manage to capture One Emperor’s actions.
His longsword continued lying on the stone stage as if it had never moved before.
One Emperor also seemed to not have taken any action. He remained holding his cup.
Only a sword glare was seen in the air, and it was a sword glare that resembled a black bolt of lightning!
Then, One Emperor said coldly,
I don’t mind facing challengers before my fight with Happy.

It meant that all those who approached him would be treated as enemies.
From then onwards, no one dared to take a step forward for fear of getting caught in a crossfire. After all, up until that point in the game, all those who were slightly famous suffered quite a huge loss by dying even once.
Time passed, but Happy did not appear.
Yet One Emperor did not show any traces of impatience. He waited on the spot quietly.

On the third day, Happy finally arrived.
There was a bit of red on his sleeves, and the stain seemed to be new, as if he had just dyed it with blood recently. He carried with him an incredibly eye-catching black sword casket and walked to One Emperor with a calm and relaxed manner through the path the crowd had created for him by splitting up.

Heaven Crystal?


Yeah.

Happy casually placed the sword casket with Heaven Crystal on the stone stage. He just tossed it there like One Emperor did for his third-echelon divine weapon.
When the numerous martial artists saw it from the distance, their gazes instantly burned with greed.
There was supposed to be a battle to the death between two top-tier players, but before they attacked each other, the two weapons already caused the hearts of the people who heard about it and came to the summit to watch the battle race in excitement.
The divine weapon in One Emperor’s hands was known as Seventh Sword. It suddenly rose up Divine Weapons Rank some time ago and stood above a lot of fourth-echelon grade one masterpieces. With the supreme status of a third-echelon high-grade divine weapon, it stood above countless masterpieces, and normal divine weapons as well as demon vessels at the top spot on Divine Weapons Rank!
Many of the famous merchants in the market made an assessment for Seventh Sword.
One billion taels of gold!
It was worth a few hundred million RMB.
Even though the price was a little exaggerated, in the current World of Martial Arts, where high-grade divine weapons could be counted on one hand, the estimated price was not over the top. Many of the lucky people who obtained divine weapons did not have the courage to refine them, much less take three consecutive risks.
At the moment Happy removed the sword casket with Heaven Crystal from his back, One Emperor looked with curiosity at it. When he saw Happy pour a cup of wine for himself and drink it as a sign of acknowledgement for the sword casket of Heaven Crystal, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

I heard from the rumors in the game that the ancient divine weapon, Heaven Crystal, is an intelligent weapon. It has its own sword spirit, and only the demon vessel, Tiger Soul, can compare to it among the divine weapons in the game right now. Will I be able to see it today?


It’s up to you.
Happy shrugged nonchalantly and explained under One Emperor’s shocked gaze.
Honestly, I only saw it from a distance. This thing is very harmful, and I didn’t look at it even after carrying it for three days.


Then forget it.

One Emperor’s expression turned grave.
He had some degree of understanding toward divine weapons. It was incredibly difficult to obtain high-grade divine weapons. They were like legends, and even Myth Realm martial artists could not subdue them. Besides, if even Happy did not dare to open the sword casket, Heaven Crystal was definitely not something that could be easily seen.

How do you intend to deal with that troublesome thing?

Happy finished drinking his third cup of wine, put the cup down, and answered bitterly as well as in resignation,
I’ll see what I can do with it once I reach Moksha Realm.


Can’t you put it in your Universe Bag?
One Emperor asked once he gained a sudden realization.
Happy’s face was full of resignation.
The system said that I can’t put it in my Universe Bag for ten days. I can’t log off for more than twelve hours per day too. If I die, I’ll immediately drop it. I’m currently incredibly irritated by this thing.

Even though he said that, he did not reveal a single hint of irritation in his tone.
One Emperor fell silent. He naturally understood what Happy meant.
There had to be plenty of people who wanted to get Heaven Crystal while Happy was on his way.

Our fight this time?

One Emperor was originally incredibly confident that he could have the fight, but when he saw Happy with such a burden, he could not help but frown.

It’s fine. I’ll just put it there. Whoever wants it can take it,
Happy said offhandedly.
When One Emperor heard Happy’s careless answer, he was unable to help being stunned, but he immediately understood what Happy meant.
Happy had a pretty good relationship with Wandering Know-it-all. With Universe Secrets Inkstone around, it would be as easy as breathing to search for Heaven Crystal. The person who took Heaven Crystal would have to stay in the game for ten days, and they could not hide it either. There was no way the thief could hide from Mu Clan’s ears and eyes.
One Emperor answered his question for himself.
After drinking a few rounds, the duo’s faces turned red, and they began talking a lot more.

How many slashes have you understood now?


I’ll answer your question, but you’ll have to answer mine as well. The seventh slash. I seem to have run into a wall with the eighth slash. No one below Myth Realm is capable of providing a stimulation for me to understand my eighth slash. That’s why I came here beforehand in hopes that I will be able to understand my eighth slash from you.

He stopped talking for a moment before he said,
Do you know why my weapon is named Seventh Sword? It’s for this reason. Once I understand the eighth slash from our fight, I’ll give you this sword.

He said those words with incredible sincerity.
Happy instantly became serious.
He knew that One Emperor’s words meant that his evaluation of him was very high.
His sixth slash was understood at the brink of death during his fight against Ling Huchong, but right then, One Emperor wanted to understand his eighth slash from Happy. By the looks of it, One Emperor’s expectations toward him were very high.

Your sword is very valuable. I’ll work hard for that divine weapon of yours.


Same here.
One Emperor cast a glance at Heaven Crystal, which was placed by the side.
Your words just now sparked a slight hint of interest in me for Heaven Crystal. If I win, I’ll definitely open the casket to take a look at it.

Happy laughed happily.
Haha! Sure! I won’t have a problem with you taking it with you either. It’s your turn for the question. What do you want to know?


Did you manage to fight against Myth Realm elites during your fight in Heaven Shaker Fortress?


No. If I did, would you really expect to see me jumping around in such a lively manner right now?

One Emperor sighed in relief and laughed good-naturedly.
That’s good, or else, I wouldn’t be fighting against you anymore. I’d just go on ahead and admit defeat.
