Chapter 120: Brats Chased by Saber Intent Lightning
“Okay!”
Chu Chen, also bathed in lightning, nodded. In a flash, he appeared beside another stalactite. He stretched out his chubby little hand, hugged the stalactite, and shouted in his childish voice, forcefully breaking off the huge stalactite.
Crackle! Crackle!
More lightning bolts emerged and struck Chu Chen’s protective barrier, causing it to tremble.
But he didn’t care at all. Looking at the gurgling milky white stone milk, he shouted excitedly and threw out a white jade bottle.
His chubby little hands formed hand seals, and the white jade bottle generated a powerful suction force, drawing all the flowing stone milk into the bottle.
However, breaking them off one by one is too slow.
Chu Chen formed hand seals, and terrifying saber Qi soared into the sky. Under his control, it slashed towards the base of all the stalactites in the Stone Milk Cave.
Rumbling sounds echoed continuously as huge stalactites fell and crashed to the ground, causing the entire Stone Milk Cave to shake violently.
Buzz!
Dense lightning filled the entire Stone Milk Cave, continuously bombarding Chu Chen’s protective barrier.
Crack!
Layers of the protective barrier shattered almost instantly.
“Aiya, Big Sister, did we cause trouble?”
Chu Chen was startled. He quickly threw out another stack of high-grade Saint-level defensive talismans, reforming layers of protective barriers.
“It seems the commotion is a bit big. Little Brother, hold on for a bit, wait for me to collect these stone milk.”
Chu Xin mumbled, waving her hand and throwing out dozens of white jade bottles, simultaneously controlling them to absorb the pouring stone milk.
Roar!
The two-headed piglet had just finished refining the energy in its body and hadn’t had time to be excited when it saw lightning bolts striking towards it. It roared in fright and darted around.
Although the power of the protective formation in the forbidden area and the restrictions in the Stone Milk Cave had weakened significantly over countless years, each lightning bolt still possessed the power comparable to a peak seventh-rank demon beast. Any single bolt could severely injure it.
The entire Stone Milk Cave was filled with lightning, making one’s scalp tingle at a glance. Is this what they meant by “a bit big” commotion?
Fortunately, the main target of these lightning bolts was Chu Chen. The two-headed piglet retreated to the entrance of the Stone Milk Cave, where the lightning became much sparser and easier to dodge.
As the main target of the attacks, Chu Chen knew he couldn’t dodge. So he simply didn’t dodge at all, continuously throwing out stacks of high-grade Saint-level defensive talismans to resist. When they were about to be used up, he would throw out another stack.
This extravagant display made the two-headed piglet at the entrance of the Stone Milk Cave jump in fright.
How many talismans does this little devil have?
How afraid was their father that something might happen to these two little devils, to have refined so many high-grade Saint-level defensive talismans for them?
In a certain space, an old man floating in the air suddenly opened his eyes, a look of surprise on his aged face.
“Such strong saber intent, perhaps he can bear the inheritance of the Divine Saber Sect.”
A glimmer of expectation appeared in the old man’s eyes.
After waiting for countless years, his energy was almost depleted, and he could only barely maintain himself by relying on this Stone Milk Lake.
If no inheritor appeared soon, he would dissipate.
“Two brats?”
With a thought, the old man took in everything happening within the Stone Milk Cave, and his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Having stayed here for so many years, he had seen countless prodigies and countless methods of collecting stone milk, but he had never seen such a violent and direct method as today’s.
These stalactites had existed since the Ancient God Realm, and he never expected them to be chopped down by this brat today.
The key was that the restrictions, now greatly weakened in power, couldn’t harm the brat at all.
That brat was throwing out stacks of talismans like they were worthless. Was his family specialized in refining talismans? So extravagant.
Watching the Stone Milk Lake decrease at a visible speed, a large portion had already disappeared in this short time. If those two brats continued, the stone milk accumulated over countless years would probably be completely collected today.
This wouldn’t have been a problem, but he hadn’t passed on the inheritance of the Divine Saber Sect yet. He couldn’t let the Stone Milk Lake disappear before that.
◈◈◈
With a wave of his hand, he cut off the connection between the Stone Milk Lake and the holes in the stalactites.
After doing this, the old man’s body became even more illusory.
“Brat.”
The old man grumbled a curse.
“Huh? It stopped?”
Chu Xin, who was collecting the stone milk, was surprised to see that no more stone milk was flowing out.
Chu Chen threw out another stack of talismans and looked up at the holes in the ceiling, asking curiously, “Big Sister, do you want to go in and take a look?”
“Okay!”
Chu Xin agreed without thinking. She was also curious about where the stone milk came from.
“Piggy, let’s go!”
Chu Xin turned and appeared in front of the two-headed piglet. She bent down, grabbed its dragon tail, and lifted it upside down.
Roar!
The two-headed piglet shook its two dragon-horned pig heads repeatedly, its whole body resisting.
Just chopping down these stalactites had attracted so many lightning bolts. Who knows what dangers they would encounter if they went into those holes.
The two-headed piglet, having just broken through to the seventh rank, hadn’t had a chance to show off its power as a Saint Beast yet, and didn’t want to die so miserably here.
Unfortunately, Chu Xin completely ignored its struggles. Grabbing its dragon tail, she leaped and entered one of the holes.
Chu Chen, who was being struck by lightning, threw out another stack of talismans to block the dense lightning. He mumbled, “Stingy, it’s just a few of your stones. Do you have to keep striking me? When I find your formation core, I’ll dig you all out and see if you still strike me.”
With that, he braved the endless lightning and also entered one of the holes.
The lightning bolts that had been chasing him seemed to have lost their target. They flashed around the Stone Milk Cave, unsure where to strike.
Meanwhile, outside the Stone Milk Cave, the prodigies in Divine Saber Valley felt the intense tremors and were invigorated.
“Could this be the sign of the Stone Milk Cave opening? Why is it different from what’s recorded in the ancient texts and what the elders described?”
Most of them only knew about the Stone Milk Cave from ancient texts and the accounts of their elders, and had never experienced it firsthand.
The tremors lasted for a long time before stopping. Shortly after the tremors stopped, the protective formation barrier around the Stone Milk Cave also disappeared.
“Boom!”
Terrifying lightning bolts, as if finding an outlet, surged out of the Stone Milk Cave and swept through the entire Divine Saber Valley.
Even more terrifying lightning bolts gathered into a beam of light that shot into the sky, illuminating the entire Nine Provinces Secret Realm with its dazzling light.
The terrifying saber intent contained within the lightning spread with the light, exerting pressure throughout the entire secret realm.
“Saber intent manifesting as lightning, has the Divine Saber Sect’s Stone Milk Cave opened?”
“It’s in that direction, quick!”
Countless prodigies within the secret realm turned into streaks of light, rushing towards Divine Saber Valley.
