Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

154 Three Essence Sword Technique, Moonlight

Three hundred steps away from the Meridian Gate, a thick cloud of dust gathered.

In the dust, Lin Ran sat cross-legged on the ground and looked at Liu Hongshan being fooled by the phantoms created by his sword energy.

Using sword energy to condense phantoms to attract the enemy’s attention was a method he had developed from the Mystic Gate Sword Technique. It was also his last resort to stall for time.

“I hope it can distract him for a while longer…”

Lin Ran took one last look at Liu Hongshan before closing his eyes. After suppressing his internal energy to an imperceptible level, he began to quickly circulate the Three Essence Sword Technique in his body.

A while later, starlight began to flicker in Lin Ran’s eyes. This was a sign that he had cultivated the Three Essence Sword Technique—Starlight to perfection.

However, this was far from being enough. After pausing for a moment, he continued to advance to a higher realm!

At the same time, at the Meridian Gate.

A few minutes had passed, but Liu Hongshan was still standing in the middle of the bones like a stone statue.

In the past few minutes, Lin Ran had already disappeared and appeared hundreds of times. The closest one was within 30 steps of him!

However, Lin Ran disappeared too quickly. Even at 30 steps, Liu Hongshan was not confident that he could hit him with one strike.

If Liu Hongshan missed the strike, there would be a short gap in the circulation of his internal energy. Although this gap was only one-tenth of a blink of an eye, after seeing Lin Ran’s speed, he still didn’t dare to take the risk.

Therefore, Liu Hongshan was waiting.

The moment Lin Ran was within ten steps of him or the moment Lin Ran was exhausted, he was confident that he could severely injure Lin Ran and kill him!

“Come on! Closer, closer!”

Liu Hongshan began to roar in his heart. Seeing that Lin Ran was getting closer and closer, his eyes began to flicker with a terrifying light.

Ever since he left the army 60 years ago, Liu Hongshan had never been so excited. The excitement of the battle made his heart beat crazily. He could even hear the sound of his heartbeat beating like a drum!

In the dust, Lin Ran, who had already entered a meditative state, sensed the rising danger aura. His calm mood couldn’t help but fluctuate.

However, Lin Ran quickly controlled his thoughts from being distracted. After all, with his current strength, he was not strong enough to defeat Liu Hongshan. In that case, he might as well take the little time he had to focus on the Three Essence Sword Technique.

Moreover, he was at the critical stage of breaking through to the Moonlight of the Three Essence Sword Technique. It was also his last chance to defeat Liu Hongshan.

“The moon is bright and clear. The calm river is shining with ice…”

Lin Ran chanted the Three Essence Sword Technique in his heart. As his internal energy flowed through his body, the starlight in his eyes began to become brighter and brighter. In the end, like a supernova exploding, it spread into cold halos.

This was not the end!

The last wisp of starlight exploded, and the cold halos in Lin Ran’s eyes began to quickly fuse. Although his eyes were closed now, one could see the dazzling light through his eyelids.

Boom!

Accompanied by a roar that resounded throughout his body, Lin Ran felt a sharp pain in his head, followed by a familiar weightlessness.

After the dizziness caused by weightlessness dissipated, Lin Ran slowly opened his eyes and saw that he was in the starry sky again.

Countless starlight flickered like diamonds in the dark night. In front of Lin Ran was a bright and huge moon.

The moon was too big.

Lin Ran floated in front of it like an ant standing in front of an elephant.

Not only could he see the craters on the moon, but he could also see every gully, stone, and even every speck of dust on the moon!

Even Lin Ran, who had experienced such a magnificent scene once already, was still shocked speechless.

He couldn’t help but think to himself that if the Moonlight was already so awesome, what kind of a spectacular scene would it be when he entered the Saint Realm and began to cultivate the Sunlight in the future?

Just as Lin Ran was lost in thought, he felt a buzzing sound.

The huge moon in front of him began to slowly rotate. Then, all the mountains, rivers, and rocks began to shatter. As the moon rotated, it twisted into a huge vortex in the shape of a funnel.

Before Lin Ran could react, the tip of the huge vortex was pressed against his chest.

As the vortex twisted, a huge and seemingly endless cold aura began to pour into Lin Ran’s body!

In an instant, a layer of frost formed on Lin Ran’s exposed skin, but his body was burning, as if countless lava was flowing freely in his body.

A bone-piercing pain instantly rushed into his mind. Even someone as tough as Lin Ran couldn’t help but howl in pain.

It was really a miserable howl. It was as if wherever the lava went, it kept destroying his muscles, bones, and flesh. Then, the cooling lava began to reforge his broken body.

Before he could adapt, the next wave of lava destroyed and reforged his muscles and bones again. Then, it was reforged, destroyed, and reforged…

In just a minute, he experienced hundreds of times the pain of his entire body being destroyed. Normally, Lin Ran would have fainted from the pain, but at this moment, his mind was very clear!

In this endless torture, Lin Ran had completely lost the concept of time and even his body.

After an unknown period of time, the burning pain began to subside, and a refreshing feeling began to spread throughout his body.

Lin Ran slowly opened his eyes. The huge moon was no longer there. In the vast sea of stars in front of him, there were only stars as bright as diamonds flickering quietly in the velvet-like darkness.

“Did I… succeed?”

Lin Ran muttered in disbelief. Suddenly, his vision went blurry.

When his vision returned, he was already in the thick dust. The surrounding scene did not change at all. In the distance, Liu Hongshan was still in a vigilant posture.

Everything in front of him was the same as before. It was as if the pain just now was just Lin Ran’s illusion.

Only Lin Ran knew that it had really happened. It was not only because of the unforgettable pain, but also because he could clearly feel the surging power in his body!

Lin Ran slowly stood up. As he turned his hand, Army Breaker appeared out of thin air.

The moment he grabbed the hilt of Army Breaker, all the expressions on Lin Ran’s face were gone. At the same time, a cold light flickered in his dark eyes.
