Chapter 249 - 249 Extraordinary Sword Spirit!
“I’ve already swept through all the Monarch-tier Sword Spirit ruins in the Spirit Sword Domain. Next, I’m going to challenge the Extraordinary Sword Spirit ruins.”
Lin Bei stopped and fell into deep thought.
Extraordinary Sword Spirits were a hundred times stronger than Monarch-tier Sword Spirits. Not to mention anything else, just the difficulty of the three-star clone challenge had increased by more than a little.
!!
It was still very difficult for Lin Bei to obtain the Extraordinary evaluation of the four-star and five-star challenges. However, the challenges below the four-star level in the Monarch-tier Sword Spirit Ruins were still quite promising.
Actually, as long as he was willing and spent enough time, he could obtain the Extraordinary evaluation of the 1-star, 2-star, and 3-star challenges.
However, his mission this time was a perfect evaluation of the five-star challenge. Therefore, in order to farm as many ruins as possible in a short period of time, he could not pursue the “Extraordinary” evaluation.
Therefore, other than the three-star challenge in the Monarch-tier Sword Spirit Ruins, he had almost never obtained Extraordinary evaluations for the one-star and two-star challenges.
However, even so, the Extraordinary evaluation of the three-star challenge was guaranteed. After all, to him, even if he challenged the Sword Spirit’s main body, it would be completely effortless if they were only at the Monarch-tier.
However, it was different now. The 810 Sword Spirit Ruins that he had yet to challenge were all Extraordinary Sword Spirit Ruins. If he wanted to obtain an Extraordinary evaluation for the three-star challenge, he had to fight an Extraordinary Sword Spirit.
This way, it would not be so easy for Lin Bei to obtain the Extraordinary evaluation again. This was because considering the time limit, if he could not defeat the Extraordinary Sword Spirit in an extremely short period of time, once he entered a tug-of-war, his plan to achieve 1,000 perfect five-star evaluations in a short period of time would be ruined.
“Alright, let’s give it a try. If it doesn’t work, I won’t challenge the main body in the Extraordinary Sword Spirit Ruins in the future.”
Lin Bei shook his head. With a plan in mind, he stepped into the teleportation array.
You have been teleported to the Frost Ruins (Extraordinary)!
One-star challenge has been activated! Note: If you fail the one-star challenge, you will be forcefully teleported out and permanently lose the opportunity to challenge the Frost Ruins!
Lin Bei ignored the system notification in his ear and looked at the frost sword energy that filled the sky. He activated the Eye of Stars.
Compared to the Monarch-tier Sword Spirit Ruins, although the mission of the one-star challenge in the Extraordinary Sword Spirit Ruins was still to simulate sword aura, the difficulty was obviously higher. Even though Lin Bei had activated the Eye of Stars, three minutes had passed by the time he completely simulated and released a frost sword aura.
“Is this the difficulty of the challenge of the Extraordinary Sword Spirit Ruins? It’s indeed Extraordinary.”
Lin Bei sighed in his heart. At this speed, his challenge speed would clearly decrease a lot, but he did not have time to consider this. All he could do now was do his best to increase his speed and complete the follow-up mission of the Sword God’s Secret Treasure.
As for the duration of the protection of the rules, he no longer cared.
Who cared how many days he had left? So be it. As long as he did not do anything reckless, there should be no problem with his current strength.
If it really did not work, after this period of accumulation, he had also obtained many life-saving items. When the time came, if he could not defeat them, it would not be a problem for him to escape.
Soon, Lin Bei entered the two-star challenge space.
This time, it was also to analyze a special array, or rather, the trajectory of the cultivation technique.
Opening the Eye of Stars, Lin Bei carefully studied and simulated it. It took him about five minutes to complete this stage and obtain a perfect evaluation to enter the three-star challenge.
“Next is actual combat.”
Lin Bei took a deep breath and provoked the Sword Spirit, starting the three-star Extraordinary challenge.
A woman in an ice-blue dress floated in the air. Her dark blue curly hair was covered in frost. As she breathed, cold air spread. Her blue gem-like eyes seemed to have no emotions as she silently looked at Lin Bei.
“Are you sure you want to challenge me?”
A cold voice slowly sounded, causing the surrounding temperature to drop again.
“That’s right.”
Lin Bei smiled and nodded.
“Good luck, then.”
The woman said calmly. Thousands of ice auras around her instantly condensed into thousands of ice blades that whistled over, sealing the space around Lin Bei and attacking him together.
Seeing this, Lin Bei raised his eyebrows and disappeared with Earth Escape.
“Earth Escape?”
The frosty woman’s eyes were filled with surprise. Then, she reached out to touch the ground and said calmly, “Ice Invasion.”
Underground, Lin Bei, who had just approached the frosty woman and was about to launch a surprise attack, suddenly changed his expression. He quickly broke through the ground and narrowly dodged the invasion of the ice.
“Are you a rat? Do you like to dig so much?”
The frosty woman asked indifferently, her words filled with mockery.
Lin Bei smiled and shook his head. It seemed like he had been underestimated.
Originally, he wanted to directly burrow into the ground and launch a sneak attack to permanently control the other party. Then, he would attack and end the challenge in peace. Now, it seemed that this plan would not work, so… he could only break through head-on.
If it was in the past, Lin Bei might have been worried that his direct combat strength was insufficient. However, with the enhancement of the Suppression Power, he had obtained the effect of “All Skills Suppression Level +1”. Even against the Extraordinary, he was not at a disadvantage.
“You’re a mage, right?”
Lin Bei looked at the ice element around the frost woman and asked with a smile.
“My name is Frost. I’m one of the swords of the Sword God during his Extraordinary training. According to you humans, my ability is the use of the Ice Laws. It’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m a mage…”
Frost patiently answered Lin Bei’s question and changed the topic. “It was just a small test. I won’t hold back anymore.”
After saying that, the ice-blue dress on Frost’s body instantly transformed into an ice armor, and the frost aura on her body became stronger. At the same time, above her head, a waterfall formed by ice sword aura slowly condensed.
“Frost Falling Cherry!”
A smile flashed across Frost’s lips.
Immediately after, the sword aura waterfall poured down. Countless ice-blue blossom-shaped blades swept over like a tornado!
Lin Bei was surrounded in all directions and had nowhere to escape.
Even the ground was frozen like cold iron. Even his Earth Escape Technique was helpless.
However, Lin Bei did not plan to escape.
...
Instead, he smiled and raised his hand. With a casual wave, he said, “Great Silence Spell!”
Buzz!
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark gray area instantly spread out with Lin Bei as the center. In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire three-star challenge area.
As the sword energy waterfall and frost storm spread in the dark gray area, they automatically dissipated, turning into countless ice elements that dissipated between the heavens and the earth.
Under the bonus of the Suppression Power, the Great Silence Spell had a Level 3 suppression effect, while Frost Falling Cherry only had a Level 2 suppression effect. Therefore, under the Great Silence Spell, it immediately collapsed.
“How… how is this possible?!”
In the distance, Frost, who had an indifferent expression, finally revealed a shocked expression.
She had originally planned to end the challenge with a fatal blow, but in the end?
It was indeed a fatal blow, but the target was reversed!
“This… Is this the skill of that hooligan old man called the Silent Emperor from ancient times? How could he master it? Also… is this area covered by a Forbidden Spell? It’s just a challenge. Is it worth it for him to pay such a huge price?”
Frost’s heart was filled with endless doubts.
...
While all Forbidden Spells were powerful, their side effects were also extremely great.
At this moment, she could not understand.
