Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible - Chapter 102

Chapter 102: Three-dimensional Maze

“Oh, there you go again. Why isn’t it over yet?”

Lin Ran slapped his forehead and stomped.

Huo Qiyun’s face turned pale. He patted Lin Ran and urged, “Cut the crap! Run!”

With that, his figure rushed into the cave like an arrow leaving the bow!

!!
Lin Ran reacted and followed closely behind. This time, they saw a jaw-dropping scene inside the mountain.

Unlike the orderly stone passage at the beginning, the stone passage that Lin Ran dug out had become uneven under the continuous attacks of the sword energy. Countless sharp stone spikes were like the fangs of a ferocious beast, covering every inch of the stone wall.

As the dragon gem on the Dragon Roar Sword began to flicker, these fangs slowly moved. Some rose and fell, and some moved left and right. It was as if the entire mountain had become a monster.

Lin Ran and Huo Qiyun were running quickly in the monster’s mouth!

“Damn! This mountain is alive?”

Huo Qiyun’s surprised shout came from behind. Only then did Lin Ran realize that he had already run to the front.

After slowing down a little, Lin Ran turned around and shouted, “No! This mountain is made of countless scattered stones. It’s just that the gaps between the stones are too small, so it looks like a whole!”

At this moment, Lin Ran completely understood that the main peak of Mount Sword was actually a mechanical mountain, like a huge Rubik’s Cube.

When the array formation was activated, it was as if a pair of invisible hands were twisting the Cube. All the space inside would be rearranged. The only problem was that Lin Ran didn’t know if this arrangement was orderly or disorderly.

Therefore, they had to get out before this stone passage disappeared. Otherwise, they would be moved elsewhere, and everything they had done before would be in vain!

While thinking, Lin Ran did not slow down.

Soon, he saw the hazy sunlight in the distance and shouted, “Hold on! Victory is ahead!”

As he spoke, Lin Ran flew hundreds of feet away. However, just as he was about to speed up, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Why didn’t Huo Qiyun reply?

Thinking back, he had never heard Huo Qiyun’s voice again after he explained the structure of this mountain.

Lin Ran subconsciously turned around and his pupils dilated!

In the stone passage behind him, there was only a slowly moving stone wall. Where was Huo Qiyun?

“Oh no!”

Lin Ran’s heart skipped a beat. His first reaction was to go back and save him. However, after weighing the pros and cons, he gave up on this idea and ran towards the light at the entrance of the cave.

The changes in this mechanical mountain were still ongoing. No one knew where Huo Qiyun had been moved to. Finding a person in such a huge and moving three-dimensional maze was no less difficult than finding a drop of water in the deep sea.

Therefore, Lin Ran instantly made the best judgment in his heart. Leave this place, crack the array formation, and save Huo Qiyun!

Whoosh—

With the sound of clothes fluttering, Lin Ran rushed out of the gap that was only a foot wide. When he stood still and looked back, there was only a gap less than the width of a palm that was quickly closing.

If he had hesitated for even a second, he would have been trapped inside with Huo Qiyun in two different places.

“Don’t blame me. I did it to save you.”

Lin Ran muttered to the closed gap and began to look around to find where he was.

After looking around, his expression immediately changed.

The hole that Lin Ran opened was about 100 feet away from the ground in the northeast direction of the mountain. The tunnel he dug was about 4,000 feet long.

The diameter of the mountain at this height was only more than 5,000 feet…

In other words, if Lin Ran had dug a hole in the stone passage from the opposite direction, he would have been able to get out in just 1,000 feet. However, he chose the longest path.

“It has to be the unluckiest thing in my life.”

Lin Ran turned around and looked at the completely sealed mountain wall. Just as he was about to leave, his pupils suddenly constricted. He saw that as the rock moved, a jade-like bone was brought out of the mountain.

Although it was just a bone, it contained an incomparably pure sword intent. Lin Ran recognized it almost instantly. It was the sword intent of Ten Miles Sword supreme-ruler

In that case, the Sword supreme-ruler’s remains that Lin Ran buried at the top of the mountain had been “carried” away by the mechanism in the mountain. However, there was only one bone here, and the rest…

Looking at this towering mountain and thinking that the remains of Sword supreme-ruler might already be scattered in every corner of the mountain, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel bad.

At this moment, Lin Ran only hoped that Huo Qiyun, who was trapped in the mountain, would not stumble across one of them.

“I’ll come back to save you!”

After making an oath to Huo Qiyun, Lin Ran immediately soared up into the sky from the ground.

The red light on the dragon gem was completely extinguished. As Lin Ran walked out of the mountain-protecting array formation, the sword also stopped vibrating.

This made Lin Ran even more certain that the array formation on Mount Sword’s main peak was activated by the Ten Miles Dragon Roar. The key was why the sword and scabbard were stored separately.

As for the answer to this question, probably only one person in the world knew.

At the same time, in the palace.

The doors and windows of the imperial study were closed.

Li Tianyi stood at the door with a tai chi whisk on his arm, looking worried.

In front of him, the ministers of the imperial court, led by the Grand Secretary, Zhang Yueheng, knelt in the spacious yard.

In the imperial study.

The empress sat in front of the desk, but she was dealing with state affairs as usual. Instead, she carried a seven or eight-year-old little girl on her lap and read a story slowly with a gentle expression.

“…The prince and the commoner went to a place where no one could find them. From then on, they lived a happy life.”

After reading the last sentence, the empress’s gentle gaze landed on the little girl’s face. “Xiao Huai, do you like this story?”

At this moment, she was no longer the supreme ruler of the world, but a gentle big sister.

Xiao Huai—that was the seven or eight-year-old girl—smiled strangely, as if a pair of invisible hands were tugging at the corners of her mouth. She clapped excitedly. “Interesting! How interesting!”
