Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1205: Unable to See the Truth
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
A leaf blinds the eyes?
Mu Qing was momentarily puzzled, only feeling her eyelids gently poked by the old man with two fingers.
In an instant.
She felt the entire world in her eyes underwent a tremendous change.
Not far away, the Imperial Supreme Sect elder who returned to the teahouse, was he a human at all?
This was clearly a white skeleton cloaked in a robe—holding tea with one hand, sitting in a dignified manner like a rare expert, appearing extremely eerie and strange to Mu Qing.
"How could it be a skeleton?"
Mu Qing’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly looked in other directions.
The terrifying scene unfolded.
Every passerby on the street, without exception, turned out to be skeletons dressed in clothing.
Each skeleton was lively, with various expressions and unique features, seemingly no different from living people.
This...
Mu Qing was even more horrified.
Except for this batch of cultivators who arrived on the netherworld blood ship, all the humans in Bliss City that Mu Qing saw turned out to be skeletons.
"Haha, a God-tiered Sword! I have a God-tiered Sword!"
The burly elder excitedly shouted while holding the sword with both hands.
Mu Qing’s gaze flickered and landed on the sword.
This wasn’t a real sword; it was a sword made of white bone, ordinary and unrelated to treasure.
"So it’s just a bone sword, not a God-tiered Sword at all..."
Mu Qing thought in astonishment.
"See through it now?"
Ye Yun, standing with his hands behind his back, smiled lightly by her side.
"I see it clearly, master! I never thought Bliss City would be so terrifying, like Hell itself!"
Mu Qing said with lingering fear.
At the same time.
She let out a deep breath, feeling much relieved in her heart.
Initially, she thought that the Imperial Supreme ancestor was an extraordinary figure, unimaginably deep in foundation, who casually gifted out two God-tiered Swords.
Unexpectedly, they were just two ordinary bone swords.
"Master, what is going on here?"
Mu Qing curiously asked.
"Don’t rush, just watch the show patiently..."
Ye Yun smiled mysteriously.
Snap...
He snapped his fingers, and Mu Qing found herself in a moment of daze, with the world in her eyes returning to its previous state.
All the skeletons disappeared.
The bustling street with streams of people had returned, lively as ever.
How could it look like a sinister Hell?
Mu Qing stuck out her tongue, showing a few bitter smiles on her face.
This place was really too terrifying.
If the arriving cultivators could discover this, they might have already fled in fear.
Especially the burly elder and the monster clan big man, holding two bone swords and taking them as God-tiered Swords, was truly both pathetic and ridiculous.
The conversation between Ye Yun and Mu Qing was only known to the two of them.
None of the cultivators ahead were aware of it.
The crowd swarmed towards the burly elder and the monster clan big man, their eyes fervently fixed on the two.
"What do you want to do? Are you planning to blatantly rob in Bliss City?"
The burly elder roared, glaring.
"Haha, we just want to take a look at this legendary God-tiered Sword..."
A grey-robed elder let out a cold laugh, eyes gleaming with undisguised greed.
"This God-tiered Sword was gifted to me by that senior of the Imperial Supreme Sect. If you want to rob it, then step over my dead body!"
The burly elder let out a cold laugh, holding the God-tiered Sword tightly, exuding a powerful aura, preparing to face the many cultivators alone.
"Fellow Daoist, I’ll fight alongside you!"
The monster clan big man took a step forward, also standing beside the burly elder, vigilantly holding his sword and watching around.
The surrounding human and demon clan cultivators all had gloomy expressions, their eyes firmly fixed on the God-tiered Sword in the hands of the two.
Though no one made a move.
The battle between the two sides seemed imminent.
Luo Li and Nangong Liuyun did not join the circle.
"It’s just a God-tiered Sword, is it worth turning against each other?"
Luo Li pouted.
Nangong Liuyun sighed, humorously saying, "Little sister, this is a legendary God-tiered Sword, exceedingly rare, who wouldn’t be tempted!"
"Oh!"
Luo Li nodded, drawing out her Supreme Golden Dragon Sword, gently stroking it with an odd expression.
Her sword was also a God-tiered Sword bestowed by the ancestor.
Only its quality was concealed.
But its sharpness remained unchanged.
"Little sister, do you also want a God-tiered Sword?"
Glancing at the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword, Nangong Liuyun didn’t particularly care, asking with a smile.
"No need, I have this sword, and it is enough."
Luo Li shook her head.
Footsteps approached slowly, with numerous cultivators moving towards the burly elder and the monster clan big man.
The two sides were getting closer.
Though the cultivators were numerous, no one dared to be the first to casually make a move.
After all, these two were also at the Peak of the Ten Layers of Life and Death Realm, now holding God-tiered Swords.
Making their combat power reach a new level.
This battle wouldn’t be too easy.
Some would inevitably be sacrificed.
The confrontation grew tense, with a battle seemingly about to erupt.
Whoosh... A sharp sword light suddenly descended from the sky.
"It’s the Wine Sword Immortal Gu Changsheng!"
Someone recognized the arrival, their expression changing, retreating slightly.
"Hey!" Gu Changsheng held his wine gourd, looking at everyone with sarcasm, raising his chin and chuckling, "What do you intend to do? Is a God-tiered Sword really worth tearing each other apart for?"
After hearing these words.
The human and demon clan cultivators, who were about to attack, all smiled bitterly.
A God-tiered Sword, could it not deserve a brawl?
If one encountered such a rare opportunity, how could they let it pass?
Even if a major battle ensued, with some injured or falling, there would always be victors gaining these two God-tiered Swords.
"Senior, this is a God-tiered Sword..."
A grey-robed elder spread his hands, remarking with a bitter smile.
"I know, isn’t it just a God-tiered Sword? What’s the big deal, just look at how anxious you are..."
Gu Changsheng laughed heartedly, downing a few mouthfuls of wine, then casually reaching into the void with one hand.
Buzz!
Ripples appeared.
A God-tiered Sword was caught in Gu Changsheng’s hand.
"Catch!"
Gu Changsheng tossed the God-tiered Sword lightly to the grey-robed elder.
"Do I have a share too?!"
The grey-robed elder was both surprised and delighted, hurriedly grabbing the God-tiered Sword, then warily looking around at the nearby cultivators.
An old saying goes.
One is guilty for cherishing a treasure.
Now that he also had a God-tiered Sword, he was no longer a comrade in the same trench with others.
"Hehe, this is too amusing."
From the back of the crowd, Ye Yun laughed at the scene.
Mu Qing squinted her eyes, smiling into two crescent moons: "Master, the God-tiered Swords here are like cabbages..."
"Isn’t that the case?"
Ye Yun replied warmly with a smile.
"Senior Gu, could you give me a God-tiered Sword too?"
A black-robed elder stepped forward respectfully asking.
"Senior Gu, give me a God-tiered Sword as well, please?"
"Senior Gu, grant me one..."
"Senior Gu..."
Seeing how easily they obtained a God-tiered Sword, numerous cultivators eagerly extended their hands towards Gu Changsheng.
