"Hmm.. which path should I take after this?" said Duan Li as his brows creased together.
He couldn't be wasting any more time in this maze. After all, he was quite worried that the princ.i.p.al and the rest might be waiting for him.
"Pardon me young master, but perhaps I have a conjecture that could help us to decide our next waypoint." the sword suddenly said.
Hearing this, Duan Li's interest was piqued. "Oh is that so? Explain it to me little sword!"
"Excluding the exit, the position of 3 of the entrances here are located along the 3 major cardinal directions, while another 3 are at the minor cardinal directions. If I am not wrong, this is in line with the 3 fortunes and 3 misfortune formation!" said the sword.
"Since young master has already entered two of the 6 paths, you have already encountered one fortune and one misfortune. The former being able to get me and the latter would be the nesting grounds, which was supposed to be a misfortune by the way." continued the sword.
Duan Li scratched the back of his head awkwardly. He had turned the misfortune into personal fortune my extracting their monster cores!
"I could guess where the other two paths that leads to the fortune are. Since the Grand Immortal that created this whole place was quite the eccentric man, he had the beliefs that the common paths are the road to stagnation, and thus to him, are misfortunes. That means, the entrances at the three minor cardinal directions should be the fortunes!" explained the sword in confidence.
It had only came into this conclusion after the route to his chamber were at the minor cardinal direction, while the nesting grounds were at the major cardinal direction. These thus, served to back up his conjectures!
Meanwhile, Duan Li didn't have a single clue as to what the 3 fortunes and 3 misfortunes were, but since the sword said so, its better than having nothing.
"In that case, where are the other two paths that leads to the fortune then?" Duan Li asked as he cupped his chin.
The sword conjured a spectral hand as it uses the index finger to point "There and that way!"
Now that they have the clue as to where to go next, Duan Li decided to pick the left-most path.
...
Tap! Tap!
"Eh? There is another dead end up ahead... seems like the fortunes are all hidden in a secret chamber!" Duan Li became excited as he hastened his foot steps.
After scrutinizing the wall carefully, the sword spoke out, "It seems like this door also requires spiritual Qi energy to open. Have a try young master!"
"En!" Duan Li then placed his palm onto the wall as he injected his spiritual Qi into it.
Woonggg!
The wall lit up with a faint blue glow that made it seemed quite enchanting.
One breath... Three breath...
The faint blue glow eventually dissipated after about 10 breaths. At this sight, Duan Li frowned, "Why does it take so long to open?"
"This.. I don't understand it too.. can you try one more time young master?" replied the sword in bewilderment as it observed the wall once more.
"Very well..." Duan Li then pressed his right palm onto the wall much more harder this time.
Wonnggg!
After another ten breaths had pa.s.sed, the door would still not open.
"This is very strange! I have observed the fluctuations of the barrier on this wall and the runic formation used in it are quite identical to the entrance in my secret chamber before.. why did it not open?" said the sword feeling confused.
Did the mechanism broke?
But that shouldn't be! This was the works of the Grand Immortal himself!
Tap! Tap!
"Eh? Young master, why do you retreated five steps? Was there enemy that I did not notice?!" the sword immediately scanned its surroundings only to find nothing that was out of sorts.
"No, because the wall had malfunctioned somehow, only through brute force would we be able to pry it open!" replied Duan Li as he clenched his hands into a fist.
'Nine Fist Shattering Meteor!'
BBAMM!
BBAMM!
BBAMM!
...
Crack!
BOOM!
After a few rounds of intense pummeling with his fist art, the wall eventually crumbled down.
Witnessing this scene, the sword thought to himself, "This kind of forceful behavior.." and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Done!" Duan Li rubbed his hands together with a satisfied nod.
...
Inside the secret chamber...
Holy-moly!
The size of this secret chamber was similar to the one where Duan Li had found the sword before. Just that instead of an empty platform with a single sword on it, this room was filled with rows of golden columns that under it, lies numerous types of uncountable treasures!
"This.. there are so many treasures piling up!" exclaimed Duan Li in surprise.
"Not only that, look over there young master! Those are rows and rows of rare herbs! And some are even legendary at that!" said the sword in excitement as it sweeped its senses around the room.
Hais..
"Too bad.. we can't use our dimensional ring in this maze.. otherwise I could pocket all these treasures. I reckon these will be able to strengthen the Jiu empire.. how unfortunate.." Duan Li sighed helplessly as he lamented on the fact that he can't use the dimensional ring.
He had tried it several times before out of curiosity, but it really could not work at all. If only it could, just with the sheer size of the dimensional storage in his ring was, these much of treasures could be stored effortlessly!
Hearing what Duan Li had just said, the sword spoke out "Ah! This Eternal maze was created in a seperate dimension that forbids the use of another spatial dimension. However, I could help young master with that!"
"Oh? You can help me overcome such restrictions? How?" Duan Li's eyes began to gleam with antic.i.p.ation right now.
"Simple! Since I have been in this maze for such a long time, I had a.n.a.lyzed the many laws and realms inside this dimension. The reason why the spatial rings couldn't be used within the maze was because the runic inscriptions it uses was different!"
"If I modify the runic inscriptions within young master's spatial ring a little bit, it would become compatible with the laws and realms of this dimension! However, since this dimension was created by the Grand Immortal himself, naturally I wouldn't be able to bypa.s.s all of the rules."
"Thus, the only thing it would be able to do will just be storing items but not retrieve it! After exiting the maze though, young master should be able to use both functions normally once again!" explained the sword.
"En! That would be plenty! Here you go!" Duan Li took off the spatial ring on his ring finger as it floated closely to the sword.
Wooongg!
The ring glowed mysteriously with several distortions that appeared to contort the ring with each flicker.
Arrfff! Arrrfff!
The cub suddenly barked out, attracting the attention of both Duan Li and the sword.
Immediately, a heavy tremor spread out within the room as a tall figure emerged from above, descending down towards where they stood!
BOOM!
Roaaarrr!!
This figure was quite ma.s.sive, about the size of 10 metres tall. It has a reminiscent of a bulky giant made up of many layers of bricks and ceramics patched up together.
Duan Li managed to do a side-roll to the right and avoided its sudden ambush.
"Earthly golem!" exclaimed the sword in a panic.
"This is an Earth spirit that is quite slow due to their density, but its attacks are incredibly heavy as a result! Even the body of a Foundation establishment realm could be injured by it! Be careful young master!"
Duan Li dodged to the left avoiding the incoming fist attack.
BAM!
The fist hits a pillar which immediately sending it crumbling down.
Tap! Tap!
Duan Li retreated five steps to the back and launched his own normal fist.
BAM!
Eh? The punch was not effective?
Duan Li's punch had hit squarely on the chest of the Eartly golem, but the latter remained unfazed by it.
"Young master, I'm sorry that I cannot help you in this battle! I had to focus all my efforts in modifying the runic inscriptions. Otherwise, if even just one mistake were to occur, this spatial ring would become useless and lose its dimensional s.p.a.ce!" said the sword.
"Its body is extremely tough as well, comparable to a pinnacle stage of the core formation realm! Young master wouldn't be able to damage it! Just continue to dodge until I finish modifying the ring!"
"Until then, I would personally split this contemptous fool into half! To think that it dared to raise its hands against young master, just that fact alone ent.i.tled it a death sentence! Truly courting death!" snorted the sword in a rage.
Hearing this, Duan Li nodded as his expression turned serious.
A physical body at the pinnacle stage of the core formation realm? Even my fist art wouldn't be able to do much to it!
After contemplating for a while, Duan Li's eye gleamed with determination!
He began to breath in spiritual Qi from the surrounding through his pores, as pools of Qi began to form inside his dantian before slowly coalescing into a Qi ball.
Level 2 Foundation establishment realm!
Level 3 Foundation establishment realm!
Level 4 Foundation establishment realm!
BOOM!
Duan Li's aura evolved as it became even more fiercer and torrential like a broken dam!
Feeling this change, the sword palpitated in fear. "How tyrannical! To think that the young master was able to advance himself by a few levels in but the blink of an eye as if drinking!"
Truly fearsome!
"Hmm? I can't breath in any more spiritual Qi? Seems like I had sucked them dry.." thought Duan Li.
But these upgrades to his levels should be enough!
Clenching his fist tightly, Duan Li faced the Earthly golem straight ahead.
'Nine Fists Shattering Meteor!'
BBAMM!
Duan Li's punch right now was several more times devastating than before! However, contrary to Duan Li's expectation, the Eartly golem merely stumbled backwards a little bit before stabilizing itself.
Even the dent on its body immediately recovered too!
"That would do no good young master! This Earthly golem seemed to be the treasure guardian for this place and because it was made up of Earth spirit, it can nullify physical damage quite easily and regenerate itself through absorbing the soil from the ground!" explained the sword."
Not expecting for this outcome, Duan Li's face slowly turned grim. "How much longer will it take to modify the ring?" he asked the sword.
"About 30 more breaths!"
