Chapter 208: Chapter 62: No Sun or Moon in Wangliu River (Combined Chapter) _3Was there really no condition for learning this Supreme Divine Skill? Xiao Jie thought incredulously, it felt so unreal. He quickly opened the skill list to check, and indeed, he had learned it. [Illusion Destruction Divine Sword (Saber Skill/Supreme Divine Skill) Basic Moves: Illusion Destruction Nine Forms. Inner Power Effect 1: Phantom Traceless (includes movement technique). Instantly move up to ten steps away, leaving behind a temporal afterimage to confuse the enemy. The afterimage will continue to simulate the player’s moves in combat for 3 seconds. During the existence of the afterimage, the player will enter a state of invisibility. Cooldown time: 10 seconds. Consumes 20 Inner Power Points. (Unlocks at Illusion Destruction Divine Sword LV3) Inner Power Effect 2: Silent Annihilation Blade (Weapon Enhancement). Infuse the power of time annihilation into your Sword Intent, making your next attack ignore all Armor, reduced damage, Resistance, Defense, Block, and Magic Effects, dealing 100% True Damage. Cooldown time: 30 seconds, consumes 20 Inner Power Points. (Unlocks at Illusion Destruction Divine Sword LV6) Saber Skill Description: Legendary, Nameless White Ape watched an immortal dance, achieved satori through the power of time obliteration by the Wangliu River, and comprehended this Supreme Sword Technique, said to cut through the shackles of time and grant complete freedom, henceforth existing outside the mundane world...] So powerful, too powerful. I can’t really tell good from bad about this sword technique at the moment, but these two inner power effects are absolutely awesome PLUS. A powerful movement technique that lets one vanish without a trace, making it impossible to pin oneself down. An enchantment that disregards all protective effects, chopping down gods, immortals, and demons alike with one strike. Eager, Xiao Jie immediately started practicing in the air, wanting to see how much training experience was needed to level up to LV10. Yet, after several practices on the spot, his experience hadn’t increased at all. Oh, does it require actual combat to be effective? White Ape saw his puzzled look, "Don’t guess anymore. While there’s no threshold for learning this sword technique, mastering it is not easy. Only in Wangliu River can one enhance the proficiency of this sword technique and truly comprehend the essence of the Illusion Destruction Divine Sword." So, that was it. That’s not a big problem, as long as he trained inside the Wangliu River. However, having just walked back and forth in the Wangliu River, he felt somewhat abstract, and the environment inside the Wangliu River also left Xiao Jie puzzled, especially those forgotten ××, always feeling eerie, he still needed to ask clearly. "Senior Yuan, what exactly is the Wangliu River? Is there something to tell?" White Ape gave a tragic smile, "Do you know why I have become so old? Just a month ago, I was only a little monkey. The Wangliu River is a place obliterated by time. Staying there for one day is equivalent to staying outside for one year. At first, I ate the Red Spirit Fruit at the immortal’s place, obtained extraordinary comprehension, and when I left, I felt the terrifying power contained within the Wangliu River. I attained satori in the laws of heaven and earth and practiced saber techniques in the Wangliu River for three days before I comprehended this Illusion Destruction Divine Sword. However, when I left, I had suddenly aged three years, but I wasn’t aware of it, attributing it to the side effects of the Red Spirit Fruit. Later, I lived unhappily, wandering and lost. I thought of seeking the immortal for clarification. I went up the mountain several times to locate the immortal, traveling to and from the Wangliu River. Unwittingly, I aged several decades. By the time I realized, my current situation was already like this." Xiao Jie’s heart was shocked, murmuring to himself — "So that’s how it is." Now he finally understood. "Then what about those forgotten people in the Wangliu River?" White Ape sighed, "Based on my conjecture, they should all be people who got lost in the Wangliu River and didn’t leave in time. Having stayed too long, their lives had already faded. They appear alive but have long passed away; only they themselves do not know it. Once they leave the Wangliu River, the power of time annihilation will instantly make them disappear without a trace." I didn’t know this initially; I even thought of saving one or two individuals, but alas...the saying ’Life and Death Reincarnation is Impermanent, Dream Bubble Shadow Shattering Light.’ If you can personally experience this power of time annihilation, you will be able to perfect the Illusion Destruction Divine Sword." Xiao Jie thought to himself, no wonder White Ape said the Wangliu River was lethal to him but not much of an influence on himself, as this Old White Ape doesn’t have many years left to live. If he stayed in the Wangliu River for a few more days, he’d probably have keeled over directly. Being young, staying there for a while truly wouldn’t be a big issue for him. Speaking of which, could this effect of time passage also appear on himself in the real world? If he practiced saber techniques in the Wangliu River, would he also age in reality? He had stayed there for about an hour back and forth, which was equivalent to half a month in reality, right? Xiao Jie hurriedly picked up his phone to take a look at himself, feeling a jolt when he saw his reflection. The person in the phone had unkempt facial hair, looking like he hadn’t shaved for half a month. He usually shaved regularly, rarely leaving noticeable stubble, yet now, just below his nose and chin, there was a normal growth of messy facial hair. There was a slight sense of disregard for one’s appearance. Indeed, it also affected the real self... Xiao Jie voiced his concerns, "If I have to master this Saber Skill to a high level, I’ll need at least a few days, right? Wouldn’t that also age me by several years?" "Exactly, so you really need to think about the pros and cons," Several years... several years of life... Xiao Jie took a deep breath and sat down in front of the computer, carefully contemplating. Wasting several years of life to learn a set of martial arts... the cost felt somewhat heavy. He remembered a question he once saw on a forum, asking if someone would sell a year of their life for one million dollars. Many people said no, arguing that time is invaluable, and cannot be measured by money. However, some thought it worth it, since ordinary people also trade their life for money at work, and they don’t even make one million in a year of toil. Back then, he somewhat agreed with the latter option, but now that it was his own life at stake, he felt somewhat reluctant. Damn, it’s just a few years of life. Once I become an immortal, living as long as the heavens and shining as brightly as the sun and moon, a few years are nothing. Back in the day, I also wasted time in games, worked for so many years, and didn’t even save up enough for an apartment. Why not waste a few more years? At least the value of this Supreme Martial Arts far exceeded one million. Thinking this, Xiao Jie made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and boldly entered into the thick fog, walking for a few minutes. As the fog thickened, system notifications flashed before his eyes. System notification: You have entered the special map [Wangliu River]. Standing in the eerie fog of Wangliu River, Xiao Jie activated his saber techniques, displaying the Illusion Destruction Nine Forms in succession. After completing one set, his proficiency indeed increased by a bit. LV1-LV2, requires 2000 Experience Points. As long as it increases experience, that’s fine. Xiao Jie thought and began to continuously practice. Watching his saber skill experience slowly increase, Xiao Jie also quietly calculated the time exchange rate: staying here one day costs a year of life, an hour costs half a month, ten minutes cost five days, two minutes cost 24 hours of life... Time flies swiftly! In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed, and the saber skill experience reached 30% of LV1. That’s quite fast. Two hours passed, then three and a half hours. [System notification: Your Illusion Destruction Divine Saber has been upgraded to LV2.] By this time, Xiao Jie’s satiety had also been nearly depleted. He didn’t dare waste time eating or drinking within Wangliu River; two minutes equated to a whole day. He couldn’t afford to squander time. In a rush, he ran out of the bounds of Wangliu River. The moment he left, he suddenly felt a bit dazed - two months of life had just gone like that. He picked up his phone and saw the reflection of his thickening beard, which even carried a hint of despondence. Looking again at the proficiency of his saber technique, from LV2 to LV3 required 3000 Experience. Xiao Jie calculated, at this rate, advancing from LV9 to LV10 would need 10,000 Experience. That would take about three or four days. Not bad, just three or four years of life. I’m 28 this year, I would just be over thirty by the time I finish mastering the saber skill. Continue!
